Straits Times article on dementia

Read this article in today's Straits Times on the expected increase in number of people suffering from dementia. And that the global bill for dementia is a whopping $805 billion! As I read, I sent out an intention for more people as well as caregivers to learn QT as it helps. :)


I've written previously on how QT has helped a client with dementia. Here's the sharing:
A client engaged me in January last year to work on her father who suffers from dementia. She felt that he had a "haunted" look on his face, certainly not at peace and was often agitated. I recommended that we do three distance healing* sessions over a period of a week in time to celebrate the Chinese New Year with a positive difference.

My client called me after the Chinese New Year celebrations and shared that at the reunion dinner, her dad actually stayed on at the table with the family. It was the first time in a while as his usual pattern would be to finish his dinner, leave the table and watch TV. She also observed that her dad was calmer and has started to enjoy playing with his grandchildren!My client decided to continue with monthly distance healing sessions for her dad. Since then, he was in an excellent emotional state. In fact, he’s in such a wonderful state that my client thought to stop the sessions in July. I recommended that instead of stopping completely, at least to do a short session and we observe how that works out.

In the month that we skipped the monthly full session, her dad acted and was in an agitated state, the first time in 6 months since we started the sessions in Jan. My client smsed for help and I did a session for him on that very day. Had a chance to speak with the client two days later and she shared that on the day I did the session for her dad, he slept very well and by the next day, he returned to a calm state of being. She realised that my recommendation for the minimum of monthly sessions are needed indeed to help her dad stay calm and peaceful. In June this year, a year and a half since we started the sessions, I shared with my client that we can discontinue the monthly sessions as her dad’s emotional state is stable. As she is energy-trained, she can now do the sessions for her dad instead.

For clients with dementia, I believe that with more regular sessions, even better improvements could be achieved. As such, if care-givers learn QT, it would certainly be useful as they can do daily sessions for their loved ones.

* Distance healing means session is done remotely without having to see the client face to face
