• When you are relatively healthy and you -
  
  • Desire a deep energetic cleansing of your physical body
  • Desire a whole-body tonic or "tune-up"
• Feel "under the weather" or are coming down with something but are not yet experiencing acute symptoms
• When you have a chronic systemic condition and are starting to experience a flare-up

When your physical disharmony is severe or when acute symptoms have fully surfaced, it is strongly recommended that you perform only Part I of the Whole Body Tune-up: Emerald Infusion for Systemic Conditions.  Performing the entire tune-up can dislodge a great deal of disharmonious energy and cause a profound cleansing reaction in your body.  If you are already experiencing acute symptoms, the additional disharmony dislodged by the Emerald may be more than the Emerald can disintegrate.  Consequently, your body will have to metabolize these disharmonious energies on its own, and this might place too much additional stress on your system.

This procedure deeply infuses Emerald energy and green-ray nourishment into your entire body. The Emerald and green ray "tunes up" your body by energetically lubricating your body's parts and energy pathways, so that they can run more smoothly and efficiently. As a result, your body is able to adapt to changes more readily and is less prone to becoming imbalanced by them. This therapy also clears away deep-seated disharmony and gives your body the extra healing energy it needs to start resolving a chronic or acute ailment.

The Whole Body Tune-up protocol consists of three parts:

Part I: Emerald Infusion for Systemic Conditions
Part II: Chakra Placements
Part III: Exercise

PART I:
EMERALD INFUSION FOR SYSTEMIC CONDITIONS

Ideally, perform this treatment outdoors in the sunlight or indoors with the sun shining through an open window directly on your abdomen. If sunlight is not available, use a halogen or full-spectrum incandescent bulb, as described in Step 5.

1. Determine the size of a circle you will make with the emerald necklace -
   • Measure the distance between your xiphoid process and your umbilicus. (See Figure 1, on the next page, for the location of the xiphoid process.)
   • Divide this distance by 3. This number is the diameter of the circle you will make.

     Example: If the distance between your xiphoid and umbilicus is 6 inches, the circle will be 2 inches in diameter.

2. Fold over the Emerald necklace once or twice to form a neat circle of the size you calculated.
3. Lie on your back with the area between your xiphoid process and your umbilicus uncovered.
4. (1st Placement) - Position the circle on your abdomen so that its upper edge touches the tip of your xiphoid process. (Please click here for Figure 1, a Diagram of Placements 1 through 3)
5. Allow sunlight to shine directly on the Emerald. Do not cover the gemstones.
   • If sunlight is not available, use a lamp. Place the lit bulb 6 to 12 inches away from the gemstones. Allow the warmth of the bulb to penetrate the Emerald and warm your skin.
   • In Steps 6 - 11, each time you reposition the Emerald, adjust the lamp so that its light shines directly on the Emerald.
6. (2nd Placement) Move the Emerald circle down the midline of your body to halfway between your xiphoid and umbilicus. Make sure the Emerald circle is centered between them. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placements 1 through 3)
7. (3rd Placement) Move the Emerald circle down so that the lower edge of the circle is touching the upper edge of your umbilicus. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placements 1 through 3)
8. (4th Placement) Move the Emerald circle northeast of your umbilicus, keeping the edge of the circle touching the edge of the umbilicus. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placement 4)
9. (5th Placement) Move the Emerald circle southeast of your umbilicus, keeping the edge of the circle touching the edge of the umbilicus. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placement 5)
10. (6th Placement) Move the Emerald circle southwest of your umbilicus, keeping the edge of the circle touching the edge of the umbilicus. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placement 6)
11. (7th Placement) Move the Emerald circle northwest of the umbilicus, keeping the edge of the circle touching the edge of the umbilicus. (Please click here for a Diagram of Placement 7)
12. If you are using a lamp, turn it off.

TIME GUIDELINES:

• Keep the Emerald in each position (Steps 4 - 11) for 5 minutes before moving on to the next step.
• When you have completed the infusion procedure, remain lying down and perform Part II: Chakra Placements.

PART II:
CHAKRA PLACEMENTS

• If you are short on time, omit Steps 1 - 3. Do not omit any other steps.
• Keep the Emerald uncovered. If possible, perform these chakra placements outdoors, with the Emerald exposed directly to the sun.
• Ideally, place the Emerald directly on your skin. Otherwise, place it over lightweight, natural-fiber clothing.
• Do not use artificial light to infuse Emerald energy into your chakras. If you used a lamp in Part I, keep it turned off.
• As you perform the steps below, contemplate the meaning and spiritual significance of health and consider what you would do with your life if your physical body worked more efficiently.

1. (Optional) While lying down, place the Emerald necklace in a flat spiral on your root chakra. (Please click here for a Diagram of Chakra Locations.)
2. (Optional) Place the Emerald necklace on your sacral chakra.
3. (Optional) Place the Emerald necklace on your stomach chakra.
4. Remain lying down. Place the Emerald necklace on your heart chakra.
5. Place the Emerald necklace on your throat chakra.
6. Place the Emerald necklace on your brow chakra.
7. Sit up in a comfortable position. Place the Emerald necklace on your crown chakra.
8. When you have completed Part II, immediately proceed to Part III.

TIME GUIDELINES:

Keep the Emerald on each chakra (Steps 1 - 7) for 5 to 10 minutes before moving on to the next step.

PART III:
EXERCISE
The aim of this exercise is to bring oxygen into your cells through deep breathing. The exercise you choose should be vigorous enough to get your muscles moving and your lungs breathing deeply, although it isn't necessary to produce a sweat. Deep breathing should be a natural result of your body's need to bring in more oxygen because of the exercise. Therefore, sitting still and doing breathing exercises is not appropriate for this part of the tune-up.

STEPS

1. Place the Emerald necklace around your neck.
2. Take a brisk walk outdoors.
3. If the weather is unsuitable or the air outside is polluted (for example, by exhaust fumes from heavy traffic), exercise indoors. First, warm up with some stretches, and then perform an aerobic activity you enjoy, such as jumping on a rebounder, riding a stationary bicycle, or walking on a treadmill.
4. Continue to wear the Emerald necklace around your neck for at least several days.

TIME GUIDELINES:

Perform this exercise for at least 5 minutes and for as long as 30 minutes.
 

The time required to complete the entire Whole Body Tune-up will vary, depending on whether you perform all the steps in Part II and the length of your exercise in Part III. You may perform shorter versions of the tune-up by decreasing the time you place the Emerald in Parts I and II. If you shorten the treatment this way, make sure to keep the Emerald on each location for approximately the same amount of time. Perform each step for at least one minute.

Ideally, perform Whole Body Tune-ups regularly and in a predictable rhythm, such as twice a year, every two months, or every two weeks. When you establish a rhythm, your body will learn to anticipate and prepare for the therapy and help the Emerald provide a greater and more efficient service.
