Well I'm not even close yet but that is exactly the warning given me by one of my majority of older than me patients...
I think one of the real problems of being in the healing thing is that you give and give and give and give and rarely do people ever give to YOU! And thus....drained, sucked dry- just like that sound made when people suck out the marrow from bones.
I think that perception I get from movies is true...
Every healer needs their own therapist. Cos we listen to everybody else's crap and have nobody to dump our crap on!!!
In any case this has gone on for such a long time. I guess professionally it's justified but personally I think I need to put my foot down...only give to people who give to me! Sheesh I think even my natal chart described this- that my luck in these matters aren't great- very skewed and one sided...eg people just always take from me, and I'd be doing well to get anywhere close to an equal give and take bar a few rare cases!

I made a Girl CRY.
But it was a good thing. Too many of us hold in and repress our emotions. And it's healthy to let it all out with a Good CRY every now and again.
In any case it was really cute when she reported with surprise the strange reaction induced by the needles. No wonder people still regard acupuncture as mystical and magical...unfortunately it doesn't help our case with the "scientific" Skeptics...
To be honest though, hailing from a somewhat conservative and "rational-logical" upbringing, I must say, no matter how long I do this, the results do often blow my mind and leave my mouth wanting to hang "O-shaped".
Sometimes, you just can't think too much- the Mind in itself can really be quite limiting, as there are many things the Human Mind is just too pip-squeaky to fathom!

How's this for HIPPY?!!
I'm not sure but sometime recently I pretty much become incredibly "Feeling-VIBE" based...Basically, I don't look or talk to someone to work out whether I'm gonna like them or not...I just "feel" their energy...
Yep, that's really how I judge people now...LOL
