When we quiet the mind, we can see what is really there, and not our judgements about things. I no longer think much about what I am doing, I just let go, and watch the drawing happen seemingly on its own.\u00a0\u00a0 This takes the &#8220;work&#8221; out of drawing and things flow. I don&#8217;t draw a &#8220;Dog&#8221; or a &#8220;Horse&#8221; I draw patterns of light and shade, colour and texture, and the picture draws itself.<\/strong><\/em><\/h5>\n<h5><em><strong>Meditation also give me the patience to be happy at whatever stage the picture is at.

The results depend on how open the person is who needs healing. Sometimes the results are dramatic, sometimes there seems to be no physical effect but the person\u2019s sense of well-being is improved. Healing can often work best on problems that people have had for many years but will not get better.
