Timebankers helping people. That’s what it’s all about. Spring Hill FL Timebank member Gary Schineller cares about community. Founder and CEO of the nonprofit Hello, from My Heart, Gary’s mission is “To measurably create happier, healthier, & more peaceful communities,” which includes Gary’s healing energy work; a sampling of the modalities he uses includes Reiki, kinesiology, transactional analysis, and meditation.
At times Gary accomplishes his mission one person—one community member—at a time. Gary is also the author of How to: Have a Nice Day. Following is a recent letter from “Dorothy” to Gary expressing gratitude for his book and overall invaluable support:Gary,
I want to say a big ‘thank you’ to you for the help you’ve given me this year—energetically, advice-wise, time-wise, and through your book! It’s all been very helpful. You are a very kind soul. It was very cool how I met you because of the energy work I was eager to do! What a neat way that things worked out, although I’m not sure if I will pursue energy work in the same form—I definitely benefited a lot from your ‘energy’ and high vibe.
I am so glad to find like-minded people. Feeling not alone at times when my body won’t do what I want it to do has made all the difference. I’ve been able to get back to the kind of thinking that I learned before some (previous) relationship trauma. Also, some memory is coming back after 14 years of very little sleep nightly. (My pattern was often two to three hours, split up, with no *REM recovery.)Now I’m a living miracle! On average I’m up to about five to six hours a night of sleep. Some nights I still revert to the old pattern, but more rarely now. My life is very magical and I feel blessed. I just want you to know that your help is not lost on me.
I do still feel like my brain is damaged from the many years of no sleep. There are chunks of memories I sometimes ‘receive’ now. I want to feel it’s possible to recover anything, such as full use of my brain. And that’s when I reach for your book! So, anyway, I just wanted to say hello and a BIG thank you!
With love and much appreciation,
Dorothy
