Bill was born with an awareness of energy around his heart that would travel down his arms in waves when something made him especially happy
   or listening to a favorite song. It was only in his twenties that he discovered others did not percieve the world in the same way.

   Bill began seeking a way to better understand what he was experiencing. He discovered that doing bellows breathing would increase the flow of energy at
   different places in his body, slowly opening what were many restricted channels and lines of energy.

   Over the next year, Bill did bellows breathing daily for 3-4 hours. That experience helped him to experience and open restrictions in his body's energy
   flow. He also came to understand his thoughts were reflected in patterns in his energy body.

    Bill discovered his depression was caused by the restrictions in the flow of energy, and the depression lifted when the channels of energy flow
   opened.

At the end of that year, holding a job, meditation, creative writing, and relationships became the focus of his life.

Later in life, Bill opened what was a restricted band of energy that ran around the crown of his head. That opened the door to numerous experiences, waking up at night in his dark bedroom to find it lit with an irridescent light, feeling blood and oxygen surge up into his face, seeing spiritual lights, and many other experiences.

That opening of the band of energy around the crown also allowed him to connect his awareness to the wider universe. The ideas that came through led to the creation his popular writing workbook, A Story is a Promise. Years of teaching and reviewing manuscripts followed. Bill also became office manager of Willamette Writers, a non profit writer's group then based in Portland, Oregon.

Now retired, Bill began mapping the energy flow around his body. His journal, Experiences With the Energy Body, includes colored maps of the energy flow around his face, head, and body, and practical advice and steps to help others experience their energy body.

This is an early map of the flow of energy around the top of his head, .
