The Life Force Project
“Energy Healing Brings the World Together”
Quantum-Touch Community,
I am honored to introduce The Life Force Project, a Quantum-Touch creation, to the QT community. The Life Force Project, a 501(c)(3) non-profit global organization, works to freely share energy healing through educational outreach, specializing service to individuals and communities in need. This is accomplished through creating and facilitating relationships with other helping oriented organizations, communities in need, and life force energy educators and researchers. How the Project Works
The project works by continuously seeking out individuals and communities in need that will benefit from energy healing education. Examples of those in need may include the following situations: inadequate access to health care and education, economic poverty, victims to natural or man-made disaster, persons presented with difficult life situations, or simply feel that energy healing education would be greatly beneficial. As relationships are being created with communities in need, the LFP simultaneously partners with Life Force Project Ambassadors. Ambassadors are the individuals who work directly with those in need and help organize, facilitate, and teach the simplicity, power, and effectiveness of using Quantum-Touch therapy. Once a community in need is partnered with a LFP Ambassador, we announce and promote this new “Project."
How You Can Help
The Life Force Project has found its greatest strength to be the vibrant Quantum-Touch community already in place. The project is actively seeking out the following from the QT community:
Please visit the website, www.thelifeforceproject.org, give the LFP a phone call, and explore the different ways that you may be able to help. I look forward to hearing from you, and I hope that together, we can experience humanity in a new and exciting way.
Do You QT?
Here in the home QT office, we are often asked if we also know and use QT in our daily lives...yes, we most certainly do! We have a lot of fun sharing stories and trading techniques and as often as we can, we dedicate time during the day to practice our skills. Below are a few of our “office success stories” from people at all levels in their energy healing journey:
Caroline I use Quantum-Touch every day on everything from health issues to mechanical issues. If I feel myself coming down with a tension headache, I use QT on the base of my skull to ease the strain. If I’m having particularly nasty menstrual cramps, I lie down and run energy on my second chakra. When a friend of mine had an anxiety attack last weekend, I ran energy on her heart and it helped to calm her down and release her anxiety. Recently, while trying to burn an audio disc on my laptop, the computer began having difficulty ejecting the disc. I ran energy on the computer and the computer ejected it! And of course, my favorite instance of running energy was when my coffee maker refused to make coffee one early morning. I pulled out the QT, and then it produced an entire pot of coffee! It truly is the universal self-help gift! Randy I run energy every evening, for myself, my family, animals, or someone from the healing requests on the QT Message Board forums. Three years ago, there was a contribution to the QT newsletter from a woman who used a particular method and it solved all my time management problems with fitting QT into my life on a daily basis. I QT while watching movies - I usually pick movies that have a light or upbeat theme. Because running energy is so habitual for me, I run energy while I'm driving and the result is a 14-year-old car that looks and runs like new. I run energy while waiting in line at the grocery store or post office, while writing e-mails or playing my favorite online games, and once while a repairman was fixing my dead dishwasher. The result was a working dishwasher in 10 minutes and a very confused repairman. Just yesterday, I ran energy on a sick puppy at the pet shop. How handy to have instant access to Life Force energy for any occasion!
Running energy has also increased my intuitive skills, so it's very easy to tap into the emotional states of others and be more compassionate. Solutions to problems come more quickly because I get out of the way and let them flow. It also allows for increased connections with others and that has been a wonderful blessing and a useful ‘side effect’ of using QT daily.

"Counting sheep is in the past!"
I am very new to QT as I have only been using it since March 2008. I use QT in many areas of my life but I wanted to share a story with you about my being able to help my boyfriend. One night, he was so restless worrying about various issues in his life that he just couldn’t get to sleep. I placed my hands on his forehead and heart and applied QT. Within 5 minutes, he was sound asleep and he slept the entire night! It is amazing how quickly QT works! This is proof that it does not matter how long you have been using QT - it can improve everyday life!
Nicole My energy healing journey began about a year ago and I have been able to implement QT into all areas of my life – what a blessing! QT has worked on hot iron burns, Pink Eye and my overall eye health. It was worked on my 2-year-old son from bumps to bruises and crying to calming. I have been able to assist my husband when he crushed his foot (from a forklift) and encountered several other areas of discomfort. I greatly reduced the pain and marks from a severe scratch across my neck and chest from a stick (that my son was holding when I picked him up) and it helped after I ran my vacuum over my toes when the vacuum actually took the nail polish right off my toes. I have reduced chronic hip and back pain, headaches, allergies, and pain post wisdom tooth extraction. I have started sleeing better sleep, encountered better traffic and more! I use the basic and Supercharging techniques and love running the 12-Color Meditation. I also love my favorite ‘party trick.’ When at someone’s home or event and asked ‘what do you do for a living,’ I explain my job and the QT modality. Most often I get a look of confusion or the simple reply of, ‘Oh, uh-huh.” Then, I ask them if they have a ‘dead’ battery lying around. After testing it to ensure it no longer works, I put it in my hands for about two minutes and then ask them to try it out. It almost always works and even my hairdresser recently shared with me that she was able to charge batteries too! Since it is their battery and you had them test it to ensure it was previously ‘dead,’ it is pretty hard to dispute that energy exists and the effect it has! Not everyone comes running to buy the book or take a workshop after my ‘party trick’ demonstration, but I strongly feel that everyone’s path will eventually cross with QT. So until then, I just keep doing what I love and enjoying the unlimited benefits that are available to all of us through QT.
Genevieve “QT in Every Day Life” I would say that I use QT every day. I use it on: skin blemishes, tummy aches, sleeplessness, my cats (to calm them down), my boyfriend, my parents, plants, cut flowers, all of my meals, usually there is always someone among my friends or family circle that needs it. And if I have any physical problems, chronic or acute, I just hang out with my hands there whenever I think of it. I try to help myself as freely as I help others. My new challenge I have for myself is to run energy on myself when I am particularly unlovable: when I am angry, grumpy, tired, hungry, or feel guilt about something or other. I feel that if I can get into this habit of helping myself often, I can only get exponentially better at helping others. I cannot imagine life without QT. “The Fallen Grandmother”
I was at our local University's Open House one Saturday and was walking with my boyfriend to get a drink when I saw a crowd of people talking excitedly in front of the library and some blood on the ground. I hustled over to the scene to see if I could help and sure enough, there was an old woman lying on her side with her son (as I learned shortly) bent over her firing questions at her like, “Mom, are you okay? What happened? I left you for 10 seconds and you fell!” etc. The woman had a deep cut above her eyebrow and her eyes were spinning and (not surprisingly) she was complaining that she hurt and that the world was turning around. I squatted down and put her head in my hands and started running the energy. The lady’s son had already called “911” and they were just waiting desperately for help to arrive. It was an Open House for the school so most of her family was there and extremely upset, including her son, her granddaughter, and her husband to name a few. I couldn’t do much for her cut, but my intent was to calm her down and stop the dizziness for her. A policeman came over to help and eventually the paramedics did as well. I was there doing QT for about 10 or 15 minutes (time was hard to measure at that point) and it seemed that she did eventually calm down, and her eyes stopped rolling around. When the paramedics arrived, they began taking her blood pressure and asking her the traditional questions, and it seemed she was better, and her focus became her arm which she said hurt a lot. So again, although QT usually has subtle results in my experience, it did seem to help her orientation. I wanted to reach for her arm since it was hurting, but it looked as though the paramedics were on the case. Again, it was amazing that QT was there, ready to be wielded during that tortured period of unknowing - between accidents and the arrival of medical personnel. I felt so appreciative that I had QT to assist. What was fascinating is that I am normally a shy person and I don’t usually go running into any kind of excitable situations, good or bad - at least not very often. Additionally, I was afraid that the old lady’s family might shout at me to go away or ask me who I was and what I was doing. Interestingly enough, they didn’t say a word the whole time, no one did—not the family, not the policeman, not the paramedics, and I was right in plain view the whole time with my hands glued to the side of this 79-year-old lady’s head. It was as if they just knew I was there to help and not complicate the situation. So I say to all of you shy and retiring QT students—get in there! You can only help...
Elizabeth When I was introduced to Quantum-Touch by Richard and Jennifer in 2003, I was profoundly 'moved.' Quantum-Touch added a dimension to my energy healing work that I had not experienced to that point. The breath and body sweep techniques work like an engine, powering and moving the flow of energy to assist with the removal of blockages, thus increasing health and wellness and probably most importantly, creating a field of clearer vision and perception. The clearer vision and perception is felt by Practitioner and Client. It is this field, this clarity, which individuals can access to create and make healthier choices for their lives. In Quantum-Touch sessions, I have observed profound emotional releases such as a client who was present at 9-11 Ground Zero releasing pain, fear, and guilt into a loving space of forgiveness and I have observed physical releases such as a client who had surgery on her ankle due to a snapped tendon comment that she found relief from the pain far faster with Quantum-Touch than with any other modality she had previously experienced.
I feel it a privilege and a blessing to not only work as a Certified QT Practitioner, but also to work at the QT Home Office in SLO, CA, in an administrative capacity. In all lines of work and in all forms of communication, energy healing and QT techniques can be accessed.
We thank you for the opportunity to share our stories with you and be a support network for you as well. It is our collective hope that QT be a part of everyone's life someday soon.
Love and light,

The water without QT had a reaction but after QT, the reaction did not occur. The chlorine was actually gone.
Mitsunori Kawamura Nagoyashi, Aichi, JAPAN If the client doesn’t really know where the pain/blockage is or, if she/he just wants some healing-balancing-wellness energy and has no specific problem, I start with running/spinning energy through the chakras, one by one. This is often very informative as well. As I go through the chakras there is often one-two specific chakras that want the attention and need some extra energy. Often the client confirms afterwards that she/he actually has had some issues regarding this area that now comes to mind.

(Pictured Right: Four people in a 'QT Octopus' all giving and receiving!) I have another great QT workshop story for you from March 2008. I had 18 participants this time on the beautiful island of Terschelling, which is north of the Netherlands. In October of 2007 I played theatre (which is my daily job) on the island. While there, I was invited to do a QT lecture/demonstration. I’m getting pretty good talking about QT with my theatre background - creating a juicy meeting with lots of light humor and deep insights. So, after my lecture for 70 interested visitors, 48 decided to attend a workshop!!! Amazing, 70% said yes - wonderful! I love it. I was invited to come and I’ll ‘have to go’ there 3 times so all can attend as 16-18 participants is my max in a Basic QT workshop.
What is also so special about this is that almost only ‘local people’ are participating over there. People who live (and even grew up) on the island ranging from farmers to school teachers and students, therapists to house wives and the local post-woman, attended. Even the ‘former vice-president’ of the island came to join us. A great range in age also, with ages from 21-89 years. Also, lots of miraculous healings of course - love in action. A woman, pregnant 7-months, slept soundly through the night for the first time in a long time. A marathon runner with years of back pain was OK after 5-seconds touching her hips. A Teckel (dog) with a hernia became well again. A mother with a ‘borderline daughter’ got a very happy girl on the phone after distant healing. And lots of other things - well you know what QT does - everybody is very grateful.
Soon, 1% of the people on the island of Terschelling (population is approximately 4500), will know how to use QT! They even plan to come together every week, to QT together. I guess almost everybody on the island will know of somebody who uses QT. All of this will have an enormous impact over there! WOW!
Can you Imagine 1% of the world doing QT?
Love and thanks,
Rob Heiligers, QTI
Groningen, The Netherlands I taught my first Live Basic QT Workshop last weekend and it was wonderful! It was a group of 12 wonderful people (I already knew 10 of them) and it was filled with lots of laughs, interest and emotion. Even my best friend was able to share in this workshop with me. The energy was soft and caring and took us to a higher level. The level is still high and I feel like I have wings and can fly! Everyone’s reactions to the workshop was so positive. It humbles me and also fills me with joy. I am very grateful to look at this group and feel the energy all around! I would like more of this. Love,
Miriam Klein, Certified QT Instructor Groningen, The Netherlands I work as an aide, and also as a QT practitioner, in a busy physical therapy facility. One day, I watched as one of the PTs worked with one hand on her back, as if she were in pain. When I asked her about it, she said that she didn't know what she had done, but her lower back and gluteus maximus were killing her.
As she sat on a treatment table and stretched the patient, I ran some energy on her lower back and told her to come find me the minute she could take ten minutes for herself. She did and I realigned her hips and ran more energy on her lower back. In less than 10 minutes she was back at work and symptom free.
Suzanne J. Schermerhorn, QTP
Gloversville, NY, USA A while back I ordered and read, "Your Healing Hands: The Polarity Experience" by Richard Gordon.
I have a 4-year-old cat, who my vet said has a displaced spine. (I had wondered why he never jumped around like most cats.) I had him sit on my lap a few times using the polarity on him. I didn't need to do any more, as now he runs and jumps all over the place. I have also used it on myself, when I have sore spots here and there.
What a thrilling experience!
Margie Blegen I run a stable and give horse-riding instruction, as well as training horses and treating people and animals with (emotional) problems. When I say ‘treating,’ I mean supporting and leading them in the direction for healing. It is always the person or the creature itself that heals him/herself.
About 2 months ago, I had an accident with a horse named Lucky. Lucky is a hot-headed little mare. After the [horse] Ferrier was done with her, I wanted to put her back into the pasture. Behind her, something fell over with a lot of noise and she got a fright and jumped away. Unfortunately, I was in her way - she could not avoid me and she took me with her in her flight. I landed underneath her and the result was a fractured vertebrae. Using the QT 'emergency-breathing' made the pain acceptable. The paramedics from the ambulance thought I was in shock and severely hyperventilating and wanted to sedate me. I refused to be heavily sedated and wanted to stay alert.
In the hospital QT also helped me to control the pain and as of the second day, I could stay off the painkillers. The nurses did not understand why I should be in pain, saying, 'there is no need for suffering the pain.’ They didn't believe me when I said I was not in pain. After 1 week in the hospital, I could go home and some QT from my good friend Jaap and neighbor/friend Karina helped me tremendously.
After 2 months I am walking around, starting to pick up on my normal day to day routine and giving some horse-riding instruction again. The first hospital check up showed the healing of the bone of the vertebrae is well on its way. With a bit of patience and continuous 'self-help QT,' I expect to be back to my normal self soon.
Kind Regards,
Greet Postma
Netherlands I was watching Richard Gordon's Interactive Basic QT Video Workshop, and was pretty curious about his technique of QT-ing his past. Then I thought, ‘why not try it on myself?’
While I was riding the bus, I imagined myself just coming out of my Mum's womb. I enclosed my baby self in a spherical force field, sent the 12 colors, and put a U-Nan in the baby's chest, with the bubble (with pink and magenta dots for universal love) enclosing the whole baby. Then, I intoned U-Nan as I did the sweeping. Seconds later, I felt a wave of cooling energy radiate outwards throughout my whole body until it felt like I was in the same bubble. The coolness was wonderful, almost like water drops trickling down my body. My aura kept expanding and though it was a new experience for me, it felt 'right.' I felt like I was just back home again.

Singapore This is the second time I have done distance QT for someone during an operation, specifically with the intent of keeping blood away from the area being operated on and lessening the need for a blood transfusion.
Last year, people may remember my 87-year-old mum-in-law came through her hip replacement operation with flying colors; hardly any bleeding and no transfusions. All other 6 patients had transfusions - and my mum-in-law went straight back to the ward afterwards, skipping a stay in intensive care. The doctor said there was a lot less blood loss during the operation than usual.
Recently, I worked on a young client with a very thick lip, due to a Port Wine Stain birth mark, who was scheduled for an operation on his lip. I did a pre-op session, where I set the intention (aloud) that, while he was under anesthetic, his body and subconscious mind would be alert and able to still protect him. I also clearly stated that blood would be rerouted during the operation so the surgical site would remain clear for the surgeons to work. I also discussed this with my client and did a round of EFT to address the blood flow and his nervousness. (This was not a distance session.)
During the operation, (he was then 400 ks from where I live) I sent calming thoughts and his girlfriend, who was with him, was doing the same. When he went into theatre, she and I did 45 minutes of intentional work – (i.e. visualizing the blood flowing around his body, specifically to direct his body to keep the blood away from his lip during the operation (the doctors were very worried about blood loss in this area as the lip normally bleeds profusely). I visualized that when the blood reached the surgical site, it saying "OOPS gotta go another way now for a while." I also visualized the surgeons walking out of the operating room looking amazed, commenting on the absence of blood and talking very positively to his parents. I sent a lot of copper, silver and gold for nerve endings and general trauma to the area. I mostly did a lot of visualizations of the desired outcome.
I got a message after the operation that the doctors were absolutely amazed as there was much less blood loss than expected. Instead of staying in overnight, as the doctors previously had said was imperative, he could go home straight away that afternoon. We continued to send QT to him and he had no need for pain meds AT ALL and has had no pain since.
He gave me permission to tell this story. I think it has exciting implications for the future especially in risky operations. I can't wait to see further developments in this area. His girlfriend learned QT from an Interactive Basic Video Workshop I held and she was blown away by what happened.
Lots of love,
