Prepare: 
Put away your own stories.
Clear other tasks until finished.
Do not prod. Offer companionship.
Offer water and small bites of fruit.
Offer blankets and pillows.
Be kind but not solicitous.
Invite eager ancestors, spirits, etc.

Begin:
Ease the Wounded into a restful position.
Touch with steady hands- think warm blocks of wood.
Rub, sooth, press, sort of tickle- move energy out of limbs, 
back of body, feet, face, and scalp to reduce agitation.
Do this until both your body and the Wounded are the same.
Steady your hands in two places that need support. 
I like right hand pressing into the back, and left hand 
pressing into the the soles of the feet as a floor.
If you need to change positions keep at least
one hand in place with steady pressure.

Start (after beginning):
Envision a white petaled flower
sitting atop the Wounded One's head.
The petals open- a portal for peace,
healing, comfort, solace.
The petals collect moisture from the air
like dew. It drips toward the center of the 
the flower and glides down
sliding to coat the inside of the 
skull. Soothing whites and blues.
Sliding down dripping down gliding down slowly
to the burning red hot embers of the 
core of the scorched Heart.
Hear the hiss, the release of heat.
Drip drop slide ttttssssssss. Drip drip ttttssssss.
Until the red embers are soaked and 
quiet.
Perhaps they are asleep. They are now
passed the acute injury.
This is not because of you, but
because of the flower.

Finish:
Offer thanks and gratitude to all 
ancestors and the flower and the water
and the embers and remove yourself.
