- I am Native with no training...
I can only imagine how challenging it must be to be confronted with healing gifts later in life, without any training in how to use them, but it sounds like you are doing all the right things. You are helping people, and your confidence and comfort with your new skills will only improve with time and experience.
I know two Native healers who I have worked with in the past who might be helpful to you - in answering your questions, if nothing else - and I'd be happy to refer you to them if you email me (click on my name and then use the "contact me" form to send me a private message. I'll email you with their contact info). If you feel comfortable telling me where you live, I might be able to locate someone near you.
Otherwise, I would suggest that you take the plunge and try talking with one of the Native shamans in your area. If that is too difficult, a reiki practitioner or someone who does another form of energy work might also be able to advise you or instruct you - maybe not in Native techniques, but in other hands-on energy techniques similar to what you are doing.
I hope this is helpful.
Best wishes,
~Victoria
