Are Your Hands Turned On?

In February 2010 there was a whisper in my ear suggesting that I start a line of t- shirts to help people learn the art of energy healing and self-healing.  I thought…. “Really?  T-shirts?  Come on….. – Isn’t that too commercial?”   “Commercial – commerce,” it whispered.  “Healing techniques have been passed along trade routes for thousands of years. Use commerce to get the word out, from sacred touch to heart center meditation, to self healing and breath work.  Look around, everyone wears t-shirts.  Walking billboards for healing for anyone who is interested.

Okay… I complied.  Friends tried to talk me out of the idea but with no luck.  I had to push forward and our story began.  The day after I created the idea of these healing tee shirts, a woman walked into my office telling me she had previously owned a very large inspirational t-shirt company.  She had studied with the same teacher I had studied with for years, Brugh Joy.  She offered to mentor me.  In each step of the process she has assisted in the most amazing ways.  When the starting of a business became too cumbersome for me, who knows nothing about business, I asked Katherine Lewis, an old dear friend with business experience to join me.  When she said yes, our company, Hands Turned On, was really born.

Each shirt has a healing technique – with my handprints on the shirt and a hangtag with instructions.  The signature shirt “Are Your Hands Turned On?” teaches sacred touch on the hangtag.  My favorite is the Heart Center Medication with hands on the front and the attributes on the back.  One places one’s hands over my handprints to meditate.  Practice Extreme Gratitude is another one I love, with a handprint on the back of the heart chakra for tapping to clear the back of the heart.

Help us get the word out….  We have about 20 healing techniques and shirt ideas ready to print.  We are also open to ideas if you have any for our line…

With Gratitude,

More About Us….

Hands Turned On ™ is a company dedicated to teaching simple energy flows to help you with self-healing. Energy healing is the ancient art of healing through touch, breath, movement and sound. This form of healing affects the nervous system, decreasing the “fight or flight” reaction and increasing relaxation. Over time, energy healing can decrease the amount of overall inflammation in the body – an underlying cause of many illnesses we experience. Our goal is to help you gain awareness and skill at “turning your hands on” and using them for self-healing.

Our T-Shirts and Hang Tags

Our t-shirts will begin your journey into energy healing. Each design teaches a simple healing technique. Some designs have hand prints placed on the shirts to demonstrate how to run energy in the body. Each shirt comes with a custom hangtag that describes the energy healing concept and the healing practice that the shirt is designed for. Using the instructions on the tag with the hand placement on the shirt (for some designs,) you will begin your exploration of self-healing. Click here to see sample hang tag.

Hands Turned OnWe consider these shirts medicine for the mind, body and soul. We think you will too!

How Hands “Turn On”:

Touch is a primary and powerful tool for relaxation and healing. When a person is in “healing mode” from either feeling compassionate or wanting to help another person or themselves, their hands literally “Turn On.” When the hands turn on, they have a greater energy flow in them and often becoming warm or flushed. This leads to an augmented ability to send healing energy to anything the hands touch. Coupling touch with simple directed energy flows can allow self-healing to begin or be amplified. We can affect another more deeply by touching them with our hands turned on.

Research demonstrates that when someone’s hands turn on, they have increased capillary dilation, meaning the blood flow in the hands actually shifts. While the effect of a healing or helpful touch is hard to research, we do have positive studies that demonstrate decreased pain with touch therapies. At Hands Turned On, we want to help people turn on their hands for self-healing and for touching others. We believe that hands that are turned on and chorded to the heart are particularly healing.

How can you tell when your hands turn on? The way to measure when a hand turns on is not readily available to most people at the moment. However, many people can get a sense of this with practice. While you use the t-shirts or some of the self-healing information Hands Turned On carries, you will begin to notice when your hands are on. This may feel like heat, tingling, increased energy, or just the awareness that your hands are different. Everyone experiences this a different way – your task it to learn how you experience it.
