Frequently Asked Questions - FAQ
What is energy medicine?
Modern allopathic medicine has divided our bodies into many systems, yet it continues to ignore the main governing force: energy. Instead, the body is defined strictly in terms of the physical, such as cardiovascular, skeletal, nervous, endocrine, immune, urinary and reproductive. Yet we are far more than just a collection of cells and biochemical reactions, and the energy system is the missing essence of this scientific model, connecting us to all other forms of life.

What is a distant energy healer?
ENERGY is the subtle energy described as LIFE ENERGY and has been known as CHI in Chinese, KI in Japanese and PRANA in Indian cultures for many centuries. Some people have always been able to “see” this energy to varying degrees, which is known as the AURA. Healers throughout the ages have focused on this energy for healing. This is ENERGY MEDICINE. It is only our current system of “modern medicine” that totally disregards our subtle energy in favor of a focus based on the physical body only. It is however this energy system that is our dominant governing system which co-ordinates all of life itself. Dr. Mehmet Oz, the prominent cardiothoracic surgeon in NYC , stated on “OPRAH” that “It (Energy Medicine) will be the next frontier of medicine…The medical profession now knows that they don’t know everything.” o:p>
Adam is able to “see” the movement of these subtle energies in all living things, including people. Then he discovered that he can also remove energy blockages which impede the proper flow of energy for health. Next he realized that he is able to connect to a person’s subtle energy at a distance and influence their energy system. Dr. Edgar Mitchell, astronaut and Nobel Prize nominee in Physics, and Deepak Chopra, M.D., well-known author, both speak about QUANTUM NON-LOCALITY. It describes how something or someone at any point can be influenced by another action at another point simultaneously without any physical movement between the intervening space. Adam was thrilled to hear that what he experiences can be physically explained. He now understands why distance is not a factor.
Then Adam moved into the uncharted waters of group energy healing. He found that he can connect the subtle energies of a group with a similar focused intention and create a coherent energy. Dr. Edgar Mitchell describes this phenomenon as everyone resonating at the same frequency, like a sports team working together co-operatively in the zone. With the power of intention from all participants it is a very positive environment for healing.
Adam has written 3 internationally best-selling books, which are published by Penguin and sold in 25 countries around the world in over 15 languages. He has also created a DVD, which is a powerful learning tool.
It is common for best-selling authors to offer workshops about their books, which usually are a 2 hour talk and book-signing for $100-$200 admission.
The difference with Adam’s author workshops on his books is that he speaks for 6 hours teaching self-empowerment in healing. Unique to his workshops, he also includes 2 group energy healings so that all participants have an opportunity to experience energy healing. The DreamHealer website www.dreamhealer.com includes hundreds of testimonials on video and written attesting to the effectiveness of these sessions. The focus is teaching self-empowerment, so approximately 40% of registrants are healers themselves, such as medical doctors, naturopathic doctors, touch therapists, reiki , qigong and yoga masters. Many incorporate what they have learned into their own healing practices.
Because Adam’s workshops are unique and powerful, they are extremely popular and consequently he is in great demand as a speaker throughout the world. They are kept reasonably priced even when compared to 2 hour workshops held by other authors, let alone all day workshops. About 30% of participants have previously attended a workshop of Adam’s, and return for more information on energy medicine and/or a personal energy boost.
Adam knows that helping people is his life’s purpose and he is pursuing a degree in Molecular Biology to learn more about the science behind what he is doing on this energetic level to influence health. Many speak in theoretical terms of what it is that Adam does. The important thing in life is to do what you know is right. That is just what Adam is doing and intends to continue doing.
Why is it some people can heal and others can't?
No healing modality, whether conventional or alternative works 100%. Approximately 77% of those who have read Adam's books or attended a workshop have had improvements in their health. Approximately 30% of those who have attended Adam's workshops no longer have their major illness. Regardless of which modality you choose your thoughts and intentions are major factors in the healing process. You have to send signals to your body that you are serious about overcoming whatever illness you have.
What visualization is best for my illness?
Some of the possible visualizations are clearly outlined in DreamHealer 2 and also in the DVD. Let your feelings and imagination guide you to the best visualization for your situation. It is also recommended that you consult with your doctor for more details as to where to focus your visualizations. Doctors are the best resource for this information. The more you understand about your illness the better you can visualize and tackle the problem.
How do I know if I am doing visualizations the right way?
Adam suggests some specific visualizations in DreamHealer 2 and explains them further in his DVD. These are guides for you and he encourages that you personalize them for your specific purpose and condition. It is best if you fully understand your condition and what your body has to do to heal. As long as you are using positive intention to heal, there is no wrong way to do visualizations.
Should I change my medication for Adam's treatment?
st1:GivenName>Absolutely not. Any changes to your medication should be discussed between you and your doctor. It is not necessary to change medications in order to use your intentions for healing. Your thoughts and intentions can be used in conjunction with any medical treatment.
What does Adam say about the skeptics?
It has been widely noted in our society that complementary and alternative solutions are increasing in popularity with regard to our health care issues. Opposition towards integrative health care is also increasing. As with any new perspective which differs from the mainstream of thought, there are three distinct phases of its acceptance.
Firstly when a new viewpoint is expressed it is met with total dismissal and little opposition or fanfare.
Secondly, if momentum grows in support of any view which may be seen as threatening to the status quo, opposition increases.
Finally the new view becomes the norm and a new level of awareness is accepted.
We should all be thankful that we have progressed to the second step, as is evidenced by some biased skeptic reporters posing as legitimate journalists. It is so obvious with their ungrounded and unreferenced opposition that they are fearful of change. They view integrative medicine as a major threat to their belief system, and they are adamant that their views will not be changed by the facts. Integrative medicine is growing by leaps and bounds and is increasingly becoming a target of criticism as we are on their radar screens.
The skeptics are taking note of its increasing interest as a consumer-driven public demand issue. Skeptics are unwittingly helping to spread the word about integrative health being a growing concern by printing their obviously biased information. People are more well-read and have faster access to information than ever before in human history. The public can easily see their thinly veiled fanatical negativity and are informed enough to make their own intelligent decisions. What skeptics are opposing is the known facts that people can and do influence their own health and the integration of these concepts into a practice can only benefit the patient.
Conference/Workshop FAQ
What can I expect from a workshop?
The conference experience will vary from person to person. There are many factors involved with your healing. Adam will instruct you on how you can become involved in your own healing process and continue the healing after the conference.
Adam never recommends that you change any of your medical protocol. You can use these techniques in conjunction with any medical treatment. Become familiar with your illness and take charge of your own healing process.
Some people with pain issues often notice changes immediately after or during the conference. That does not mean that everyone with pain issues will notice a change immediately, or at all. We have had emails a year later from some conference attendees letting us know that their pain issues are no longer with them and had vanished after a conference. You have to learn that you can make a difference in your own health.
Those with serious issues such as cancer have to look at the conference as a turning point in their healing journey. A number of people with serious cancers have eliminated their cancer after 1 to 3 years. This does not mean that everyone with cancer will get rid of it by attending a conference or practicing the techniques that Adam teaches, but we have also had reports of changes in tumors within weeks of the conference. Results vary from individual to individual.
What should I do to prepare myself for a workshop/conference?
In order to get the most out of your conference experience, you should read Dreamhealer 1 and DreamHealer 2. Practice the visualizations at home. Adam's workshop carries on from Dreamhealer 2 into new material.
When I attend a workshop and participate in the energy healing, can I “catch” someone’s illness if they have bad energy?
No. Energy is directed through our intentions and when your intention is to heal, then only positive results can occur. Also one theory is that a person's illness has a specific frequency to that person and cannot be attracted by another person. Adam gives more details on this at his workshops.
When I register online for a conference, will I receive a ticket in the mail?
No. We will register you the morning of the conference by your name, not ticket.
Will Adam’s books and DVD be for sale at the workshops?
Yes, they will be for sale at the conference. Please make sure you have read his books prior to attending the conference as preparation.
I have registered for a conference that I am not able to attend. Can my friend attend in my place?
You can transfer your registration to someone else if you aren’t able to use it. Since we sign you in for the conference by name, you need to update your online registration account to indicate that there has been a name change. It is your responsibility that all personal information is updated so that we can correspond with the person who would be attending in your place.
What are some of the rules for attending a workshop/conference?
1: No cameras, photography or recording devices allowed.
2: Refrain from using perfumes or colognes at the workshop as some people with certain illnesses are sensitive to them.
3: All cell phones must be turned off during the workshop.
4: Please wear loose comfortable clothing.
5: If you feel that you are sensitive to subtle energies please sit on the outside perimeter.
6: You cannot bring noisy medical equipment into the workshop as it will interfere with the treatments.
7: If you have a persistent cough you will not be permitted to attend the workshop as it will also interfere with the treatments.
8: Between now and the workshop date you should be practicing all the steps outlined in Adam’s first book and the visualizations from the second book “DreamHealer - Guide to Self-Empowerment”. There are also some important information in Adam's third book "The Path of the DreamHealer".
9: Know how to ground your energy and visualize merging auras as outlined in the second book. Adam will be going over this, but if you have an idea what to expect then the treatments will be more powerful.
10: Understand that you do have the power to improve your own health, starting now.
11: You should have a visualization specific to your own illness when you arrive at the workshop. You can find these visualizations in the second book.
12: Know as much as possible about your illness. I.e. where exactly it is located; what it is called; know what the organ looks like that might be affected, etc…the more information you have, the more effective and targeted your visualizations will be. Take visualizations seriously as they do work.
13: Positive thoughts only at the workshop: Have a picture in your mind, of you being somewhere or doing something you love to do. Think about this before attending the workshop and you will have a much easy task of staying positive. This is very important as your thoughts and intentions play a major role in your health.
"Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them." - Ralph Waldo Emerson
