Healing with Ho’oponopono: (a healer’s diary)
Baa was sleeping in her room. I was warned before going in as due to bed sores there's a peculiar stench in the room and nobody liked to go near this old woman. Being a healer, I went ahead without any hesitation but was cautious enough to have my face mask on me. Baa was sleeping in a curved position and apparently with the limbs all curved in, it wasn't possible to make her sleep straight. I saw her bed sores, bruised limbs and my heart cried out for this mother figure who was suffering silently as she had stopped speaking days ago.
