Success

I'm so accustomed to viewing myself as a failure that it never really entered my mind that my booth at the bazaar in Napoleon would be a success--but it was! I don't have much time to write about it now, but I thought I'd share some pictures for you to look at until I do.

This is the information table with the BT brochures and my CBP certificate. I set my massage table up behind it so it was hidden a little bit to allow for a little privacy. I was surprised how it didn't seem to bother anyone that the sessions were done in public. This was way in the back of the room, though, so it was as private as possible.
I printed this sign to let folks know what I was offering and to tell them to fill in their consent forms before I worked on them.

There were about 30 different vendors.

This woman said that she didn't mind my taking a picture of my working on her...
It was kind of dark in there but here we're both smiling for you.

I came home floating with excitement. New possibilities that opened up to me are a chance to teach cortices to the staff at the nursing home and perhaps open up an office in Napoleon's new fitness center opening in May. WOW--and all it cost me was $25 for all of that free advertising. :)

ANTICIPATION

Do you remember that old TV commercial for Heinz ketchup with the song, ANTICIPATION, playing? We don't have TV anymore so I don't even know if that is still on or not, but it came to mind right now. The people were holding the bottle upside down waiting for the ketchup to start flowing out of the bottle. Well, that is exactly how I am feeling right now.

You see, I had a VERY interesting experience yesterday which has raised my anticipation levels for today. Well, I have been feeling the urgency to go and see my dad for some reason. Yesterday, when I was talking to him on the phone, I told him to ask the cooks at the assisted living facility where he lives to prepare supper for our family for tonight. He said, "Maybe we'll just go to the Lyric." This was very unusual for him as he's always been the biggest Scrooge since Scrooge. He gets his meals "Free" at the facility, so to go to the Lyric would mean shelling out cash which he despises doing!!!!!!!!!!

I said, "Well, it doesn't make any difference to me as I pay either way."

Then he totally shocked me and said, "NO, I AM GOING TO PAY!!!!!!!!!" If you would know my dad, you would know that this is equivalent to our government suddenly deciding to honor God.

I felt around for some anchor in that moment and, finding him sincere, I laughed and said, "That sounds even better." SO THIS IS THE PRAISE OF THE MILLENNIUM--MY DAD IS TAKING US OUT FOR SUPPER TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

I would appreciate any prayers that you could send my way as I do feel as though the world just tipped upside down and I'm not sure if it's for real or not. Still, he has had 10 full-length BodyTalk sessions with me, and lots of little ones, so perhaps it HAS made a dent. Also, I'm wondering if him living with real PEOPLE, and not control freaks, may have opened his eyes to see how things are to be in families???? We'll see what the day holds.............

I have a prayer request for tomorrow too. I have a young-mom neighbor here who is excited about trying BT from what I wrote about it in the newspaper after I passed my test. She called a few weeks ago and said that the city of Napoleon is sponsoring a fund-raiser bazaar for their nursing home. Then she excitedly said, "It would be a great way for you to introduce BT to Napoleon and the price is only $25 for the afternoon. What do you think?"

Well, I thought about it for a few days and then decided to do it. I'm going to run it like we ran our free BodyTalk day last April in Bismarck and I'm praying that the Lord will use it to open some minds in Napoleon to the wonders of BT. The only difference between that event and this one is that I AM THE ONLY PRACTITIONER!!!!!!!

I covet your prayers for me to have the wisdom to know what to say and the peace to settle down and do great sessions even though the room will be far from quiet. I plan to give everyone who wants a short session from 10 to 15 minutes the chance to experience what BodyTalk can do. I'll have my pamphlets out to read and the story of how BT saved my life. I am very excited about this opportunity but also just a wee bit NERVOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you happen to live in the Napoleon, ND area, I am inviting YOU to take advantage of this opportunity and join me at the DownTowner on main street Napoleon tomorrow afternoon. The bazaar lasts from 1:00 to 5:00 and I would be honored to give you all a free sample of what BodyTalk can do to give you peace. Last April I worked on one man at our Bismarck clinic day. He told me later, as he is now one of my clients, that his shoulder that had been hurting him for 20 years, stopped hurting him during that session!!!!!!!!! WOW--PRAISE THE LORD FOR HIS MIRACULOUS HEALING WAYS!!!!!!!!

Anticipating the best,

Dawn

PS. Here's a picture of my dad last November when we had his 80th birthday party at the Lyric. It's so hard for me to imagine that tonight he is buying US supper! Maybe I have to take Emmanual's advice and start to look for the GOOD things in life instead of continually anticipating the bad. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Coming events

Hi everyone,
I am rethinking my Cranford post so will post my new thoughts on that tomorrow--hopefully. I had not been able to see how the whole thing was steeped in feminism while I was watching it, but it's there. Feminism, in my humble opinion, is behind most of the woes in our world but I'll have to save those thoughts for later. I have much to do this morning to prepare for my day in my office.

I want you all to know that I am VERY excited about this coming Sunday. I have been asked to have a booth in Napoleon at a fund-raising bazaar. I will do short 10-15 minute sessions on as many people as possible. If you are in the Napoleon area and want to show your support for BodyTalk, please be one of those people as I welcome all support. It's at the Downtowner (not crazy about the location but the bar is in a separate room) from 1:00 to 5:00. I covet your prayers for this event as it may open up Napoleon to BodyTalk--if that is the Lord's will at this time. If not, I'll "Just" plant some seeds and help a few people to feel better. Last time I did this, one man told me that his shoulder which had hurt him for 20 years, quit hurting after I worked on him. PRAISE THE LORD!!!

Blessings to all who serve the risen Lord today!!!

Dawn

EXCITED!!!!!

WOW--it has been an exciting 2 days here. Yesterday I got to be part of the first ever BodyTalk clinic day in Bismarck, ND. These are being done around the world to let people experience BodyTalk for themselves at no expense. I'm including pictures of my fellow BodyTalkers who are my new friends. I may not ever have written here that most of my friends rejected me after I began using BodyTalk to recover my health after the shingles. This was very hurtful as these were the people who had been praying for me to get well during my long illness. People are so afraid of what they know nothing about that they reject it without proper analysis, which in my opinion would at least involve having a BT session. Robert puts it this way, "People put God into the box with their definition of how much He can do to help them." I'm thankful now that I was too ill to do so because, not only have I gotten well, but also God is allowing me the incredible joy of helping others to get well too. Not only that, but God has given me new friends who also have a heart for the sick. All of us donated our time yesterday, and gas to get there, because we know that BodyTalk can help EVERYONE who has pain or sickness. About 150 people came in for short, free sessions and I rejoice to have been one of those giving these people new hope.


I worked on a woman who had an emotional reason for the pain she's had in her foot the past 2 years. I worked on an 8 year old boy who had an emotional reason for the rash which has covered his body for years. I worked on a 77 year old woman who got shingles 2 years ago and has lived with the same unbearable pain I lived with ever since. I worked on a sprained ankle; a small child with a cold; and another small child with an inherited nervous system condition and many others. All the while I prayed to God for wisdom to be able to do what most needed doing and for peace to come to these over-stressed systems. I praise my Heavenly Father for the good work which He began yesterday through us 17 BodyTalk practitioners.


Here are some pictures of the day. This is a client of mine from Bismarck but I had a shocker when I was doing her session. She had to be balanced to her home town which she said was Eureka, SD. I gasped as that is where I was born and raised. I asked her maiden name and it turns out that her older sister was my classmate for all 12 years of public school. This was most shocking. She started laughing and said that she had told her husband after I had visited their home, "I wonder if she isn't Dawn Delzer." I said, "Yes, I was." They both started laughing and she said, "Well, you sang for our wedding." I joined their laughter then. I used to sing for weddings a LOT but hadn't recalled theirs. Isn't it wonderful how the Lord brings people together?







It was such a blessing that Robert was able to spend the day with me as I had been wanting him to meet my new friends. Here he is getting a session from Esther Hanson, the worlds' youngest certified BodyTalk practitioner. It was so neat to work next to Esther as she is such a miracle. She went from autistic to CBP in 6 years thanks to her mom's and other practitioner's hard work at restoring her brain through hundreds of sessions. Then Esther continued the hard work for 2 years as she mastered all of the BT techniques--there is a LOT to learn.











One of the people that I "Lost" when I turned to BT for help with my health was a woman who used to call herself my sister in the Lord. Well, the Lord CAN restore the years that the locusts have eaten. Working here is my new adopted sis, Ellen. She was so happy all day to be able to give her services away for free to those who came. She gives one powerful BT session. The most exciting part of the day was that 4 of the ladies up in Bismarck are opening a BT clinic and Ellen is one of them. They asked me if I want to go in with them so now I have something new to ponder. I would only go up one day a week for now but it could grow into something more. Who knows? The answer is that God knows. Isn't Ellen beautiful? The other picture is of the group working with my aunt Donna closest sitting with a blue sweater on. She too would have died without BodyTalk sessions but now she is helping others to recover their lost health thanks to this miracle called BodyTalk!!!





This last picture was of us tapping on our husbands. First is Liz and Steve Braus; next Elizabeth and Scott Hanson, next is Donna and Yatsin Berger; then myself and Robert; and last but not least is Jean and Bob Landseidel. Now, I normally list a husband's name first because he is the head of the house, but in this case I listed the ladies first as they are the BT practitioners who worked very hard to get to this day--many of us conquering life-threatening illnesses. Elizabeth said that she wanted a picture of our men because they are the ones who keep us going. How true. Robert also commented that he was surprised how I kept going all day yesterday doing sessions and never even thought of a break other than our short lunch break. I LOVE DOING BODYTALK SESSIONS AS EACH ONE IS A MYSTERY!!! What an incredibly wonderful day it was.



Today was great too as we learned that the Senate approved the home school bill. Now it must pass the House ed. committee's scrutiny once again and then go to the governor. If passed, our children will be able to home school their children without government hassles provided that the test results stay high during the next 2 years as they will review them in 2 years. Before this you had to have a teacher's certificate; 4 year degree; or pass the national teacher's exam in order to home school without a monitor. This is sooooooooooooooo exciting. True, like Robert says, "We wouldn't have had to get into this fight as we already are set for home schooling seeing as I have a 4 year degree AND passed the National Teacher's Exam," but we fought for our children to be able to home school their children as none of them most likely will have a collage degree and taking the NTE was NO FUN!!! I studied a full year to pass that one but now our children will be able to home school their children with their diploma they received from our school on their graduation day. Oh yes, mark your calanders for June 7th as that is Andrew's graduation day.



WOW--I wish that I could sing for you all right now as I know what I'd sing. We used to sing a neat song in church choir in Eureka decades ago but it's ringing fresh in my mind tonight. I don't even remember the exact name of it but the words go like this.



If it keeps getting better and better. If He keeps on pouring it on.

If my heart just keeps getting richer. If He keeps on giving a song.

If my cup gets fuller and fuller. If my prayers keep on getting through.

If it keeps getting better and better, oh Lord, I don't know what I'm going to do.



I praise the Lord who took me out of the depths of despair 3 years ago and has kept me safe under the shadow of His wings and now gives me the joy of sharing His hope with a hurting world.



WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
