I got a nice compliment today. A friend said they’d been looking for a book to catch their attention, something to ignite an interest in them. We began speaking about this book and that, and they said, “See? All I had to do was talk to you.” One book was Accepting Your Power To Heal; The Personal Practice of Therapeutic Touch by Delores Krieger.  When I reconnected in 2003 with my brother after 37 years, I sent him the book. His wife had a diabetic ulcer on her foot that was very slow healing. He began doing Therapeutic Touch every day and in 30 days she saw the doctor again and he was surprised and asked what she had been doing. She said Jerry’s been doing T-Touch and even in Easley, SC the doctor had heard it was a valid modality.

The other book was Sorcerer’s Apprentice by Amy Wallace. Amy is the daughter of bestselling author Irving Wallace, and she recounts the 27 years she knew and interacted with Castaneda and his self proclaimed “Witches,” from the time she first met him at age 16 to the time from the early 90s until Castaneda’s death in April ’98 when she was one of his lovers and a member of his inner circle.
