Can you expand on the 'scientific basis you mentioned behind dreamwalking?
Perhaps some personal case studies with regard to healing yourself or others would help put things in perspective.

Thank you.
I guess I should say that I believe there must be a scientific basis for what happens, I have no proof for it, yet. That is one reason I joined this forum, I am searching for a scientific reason for why I get results at times (not all the time).
I should also say that I don't hypnotise others. I use it strictly as a device for myself.
The healing that I do comes in the form of massage therapy ( I am a trained, licenced massage therapist), nutrition analysis and intuitive healing using information that I gain while meditating or dreamwalking. Aso, I should add, that the meditation and dreamwalking started as a form of stress relief and working on my own psyche, not to help others. It is only very recently that I have started using it to help other people.
Example -
I have a client who, in the beginning of our association, was approximately 220 pounds overweight (by her MD's estimation), diagnosed as clinically depressed, had diabetes, HBP, hypothyroidism, the list goes on...
She was at her wits end because the several doctors that she had for the various problems had her on 19 medications! She was still depressed, lethargic and just plain sick. I feel certian that hte 19 medications had something to do with this.
She came to me by way of a personal referral by a friend of hers who had been a client of mine for a few months.
I started working with this lady by helping her change her diet, giving her massage, and helping her to get her body moving in a positive way (ie: exercise).
After 3 months, she had lost 78 pounds, had increased energy, and her doctor decreased the dosage of some of her medications.
Through all this, I kept getting the impression that she was using me as a crutch, a way to not deal with issues herself. She was calling me 20 times a day, on average, to ask if she could do this or that, it was alarming to me that she would turn over all decisions to me.
Now, I said all that, to give you an idea of where we were at when I started using my intuition to help her.
I was very worried about her, so I started meditating on how I could help her be free of these problems. After a week of daily meditation, I started dreaming of her. This is not uncommon, because I was so focused on her, so I didn't think too much of it. After a few nights of just dreaming about her, I went into a dream state that is very much like lucid dreaming.
It was a new experience for me, because I have never done this concerning another person. I was in what I refer to as the astral plane, for me, this is a much deeper level. I feel that I connect to knowledge that may not be mine alone, or something.
Anyway, at our next session, I used massage techniques that I have never learned in a class room. I still do not know what they were called. I spent 3 hours working with her, massage directed toward opening up the abdominal area.
Suddenly, she's crying. Sobbing for no reason that she can explain.
After crying for a while, she calms down and says that she feels so much better. No explanation for it, though.
After that day, she starts taking responsibility for her own actions, she stops calling me all the time, etc.
I still continued to help her with massage and nutrition, but she is basically doing it on her own. She continues to lose weight and is off all medications for depression, her diabetes is under control with nutrition (she no longer needs insulin), and her blood pressure is almost down to normal. She still has some issues with her thyroid, but it's much better.
My question is , where did I get the information to help her open up her emotional center? This was not something I had ever heard of, let alone practiced.
This is why I am here, to see if maybe there is an explanation for this.
Sorry for the long post, but you did ask. I have more examples of using this with myself and others, too.
