And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and

Welcome Jean Houston, And Now. Close your eyes and imagine that you are hearing the most encouraging words you have ever heard at precisely the moment you need them. Then feel your heart take those words and transform them into compassion for ALL life everywhere including your own. Now allow your mind to accept the role of active participant in the dance of life. What’s left? DANCE!! MOVE!! Shake it up and get into your groove letting it flow from you like icing off of a hot cake. Let the sweetness of life fill you with joy so much so that you are compelled to share! What, you say you have never experienced this type of energy? Well perhaps you have never experienced Jean Houston. By putting her thoughts into words and answering the call to share them with all who are eager to listen, Jean connects with the deepest parts of us that are yearning to be awakened, hoping to be inspired to be our greatest selves and that have always known that we are part of a greater whole and at the same time we ARE the greater whole! Jean Houston created the connection as much as she was born to BE the connection and the most amazing truth of what she lays in front of us is that WE are the connection also and that WE were BORN to be that connection. For as much as we may see ourselves as the dot on “I” we are the “I” as well.

Unity Churches provide a positive, practical, approach to Christianity based on the teachings of Jesus and the power of prayer. We honor universal truths in all religions and respect each person’s spiritual path.

Calling us to recognize our power, cultivate it, use it, share it and watch as it expands. This is the charge in the message Jean Houston puts forth; for it is in allowing this process to occur that we come to love ourselves, thereby loving ALL life as ourselves. All life becomes as precious to us as ours is to us and then something equally as miraculous happens, the harmony we were born to experience exists and the joy we were created to express becomes our reality and all else that would stand in its way now steps aside to make way for our expression of the gratitude for why we were sent here in the first place; to shine like the SUN.

Open your eyes as this is no dream, this is where we are RIGHT NOW! You are being given the instructions on how to use the tools you have had all along, as well as the purpose for their use. You can build the world your heart beats for and better yet, your example will teach others to do the same. Here is a blueprint; the plans are tested and approved, our permits have been pulled and construction begins as soon as you say it does. And with Jean Houston as the foreman on your project you will be soon cutting the ribbon on and handed the keys to the magnificent LIFE you have created!

Earth Day - April 22nd Earth Day is an annual day on which events are held worldwide to increase awareness and appreciation of the Earth’s natural environment. There are a number of ways you can celebrate and show your commitment to addressing environmental issues. You can plant a tree to provide a habitat for a variety of plants & animals as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Even smaller acts of kindness can have great consequences. For example; you can pick up litter, recycle, turn off the water when you brush your teeth, switch to online bill payments, use public transportation, install energy efficient lights. Think of other ways you can lighten your load on the environment and promote a healthy ecosystem this Earth Day. ~ Sylvia Abbate

DROUGHT Whether you want to shed a few pounds, cleanse or simply increase your intake of nutrient rich fruit and veggies, DROUGHT in Plymouth is passionate about helping people reach their goals. After living in Manhattan, NY, sisters Jessie and Caitlin James had the idea of bringing raw juice to their hometown in Plymouth.

Made from 100% organic fruits and vegetables, DROUGHT juice is unpasterized, cold-pressed and a glass-bottled beverage perfection. Drinking raw juice is the easiest way to assimilate essential enzymes and nutrients which can be lost in conventional food processing, cooking and heating.

Access an Incredible Power: Your SuperConscious! It is quite likely that you have heard of Edgar Cayce. He was an American psychic who has been called the “Sleeping Prophet,” the father of holistic medicine, and the most documented psychic of the 20th century. He was born in Kentucky in 1877 and his story is quite amazing. Cayce was a very religious man and at a young age vowed to read the bible every year of his life. He did, in fact, accomplish this task until the end of his life in 1945. In addition, he taught Sunday school and recruited missionaries. In his early 20’s, Cayce became partners with his father to sell insurance. However, due to severe laryngitis, Cayce lost his voice and was unable to speak. The following year, a stage hypnotist named Hart attempted to cure Cayce with the use of hypnosis. Cayce’s voice temporarily came back but it did not last. A local hypnotist named Al Layne, then stepped in and worked with Cayce. While in a hypnotic trance, Cayce described what caused his ailment, and was then able to become cured of the condition. At a later date, Cayce was able to help Layne with several of his own issues by suggesting cures which were both accurate and effective. Layne encouraged Cayce to give trance healings to the public. He was reluctant at first, but finally agreed to do so on the condition that the readings would be free. For more than 40 years, Cayce gave psychic readings to thousands of people including such famous people as Woodrow Wilson, Thomas Edison, Irving Berlin, and 10

George Gershwin. Cayce’s readings diagnosed illnesses, gave prophecies, and revealed previous lives of the clients. Cayce would lie down, close his eyes, and put himself into a deep state of relaxation and meditation. In other words, he entered a deep hypnotic trance. He was then able to make contact with the universal consciousness, also known as the “Super-Conscious.” Once in trance, he would respond to the questions of the people he was doing the reading for, often answering questions such as: “What is my purpose in life?” or, “How can I get help for this ailment?” The responses to the individual’s questions came to be called “readings”, and much of the information and advice is still helpful today. Cayce stated that he did not remember what was said during the reading. Because of this, he would have his secretary, Gladys Davis, record everything that was said during the reading. Cayce stated that the unconscious mind has access to information that the conscious mind does not have access to. Cayce gave over 22,000 readings during his life, although some are missing. Cayce did not at first believe in reincarnation, but was forced to consider it as a result of the material produced during his readings. It took him several years until he actually believed that reincarnation, or past lives, were valid. Cayce would also ask his audience to test his suggestions rather than accept them on faith. It is believed that when Cayce made contact with the “Super-Conscious,” that he had access to what is called the “Akashic Records.” This contains the records of everything that has ever happened to every individual. Some call it the “Book of Life.” It has been described as a universal library or Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

even a universal supercomputer. The records are constantly updated and can be accessed under deep hypnosis. Cayce did not believe that he was the only person who could gain access to this information. Many people today are able to get information from the Akashic Records. One such person who has developed a wonderful method of accessing this incredible knowledge, is world famous author and hypnotherapist Dolores Cannon. With her methods, one is able to enter a deep state of hypnosis and then make contact with the Super-Conscious level. At this level, individuals are able to get answers to practically any question they have about themselves. Dolores has even been able to get healings from the highly evolved beings on the Super-Conscious level. Much of this is described on her website. Phillip Rosenbaum, Self-Esteem Academy If you are interested in experiencing this type of hypnosis, I have been trained by Dolores Cannon to use her method. I am a certified hypnotherapist with a Master’s Degree in Clinical Psychology and Counseling. I received training in hypnosis from the Clinical Hypnosis Institute, and from Dr. William Wolfson, M.D. My approach is gentle and nonjudgmental. This method offers a wonderful and very relaxing experience, and one that can change your life. To contact me, please call 248-6886469 or contact Eternal Balance Holistic Life Center at 248-542-1357

A LITTLE SOMETHING TO PONDER AND SMILE ABOUT.. By the time I realized my parents were right, I had kids that didn’t believe me. Keep the dream alive: Hit the snooze button... Marriage is a relationship in which one person is always right and the other is the __________☺. Instead of cleaning my house, I just watched an episode of Hoarders. Now I don’t feel so bad. Trying to understand you is like trying to smell the color 9. INTELLIGENCE is like underwear...It is important that you have it but not necessary that you show it off. If at first you don’t succeed, look in the trash for the instructions. Remember these two words. They will open up a lot of doors in your life. Push and Pull. All men are created Equal. Some just have more Splenda. Calories are just little tiny creatures that live in your closet and sew your clothes a little bit tighter every night. Have you ever noticed that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac? What matters is not the length of the wand, but the magic in the stick. DEAR GOD! A little boy was overheard praying: “Lord, if you can’t make me a better boy, don’t worry about it. I’m having a real good time like I am. Amen.”

Riding the Wave of Forgiveness Spring always brings a sense of freshness, washing away the stagnant winter energy and making the world new. This spring is special in that it is the first spring after the completion of our old world contracts on New Yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day 2013. This spring is a new beginning on so many levels! There is a strong wave of forgiveness moving in spirit at this time. It is helping us to let go of old shame, hurts and battles that weigh us down and cause us to experience fear and resistance to change. Pain and hurt are great attention getters making us focus on our soul lessons and so they have been widely employed within our old soul contracts here on earth. However, once weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned from these great teachers, we need to get on with using the gifts we have gained through our

hardships, not let the old suffering drag us down. Forgiveness frees us from the old to live our lives in new and empowered ways. This healing wave of forgiveness is releasing numerous layers of suffering and pain from all the generations who have lived here on earth. It is bringing a tide of unconditional love and healing to the deepest level of body and soul for all of creation. What a great opportunity to lighten the load of pain, hurt and anger that has weighed us down. The meditative exercise below will help you to do that in a simple and effective manner. Then your soul will be freed up from weight and darkness so you can spring forward into the light, like spring bulbs in the garden after a long winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s night. Hurt is a two way street, all parties are damaged by it, whether as a victim or as a persecutor, there is a burden it puts on both souls. So right or wrong is

hardly an issue in the following prayerful meditation. It is simply letting go, so that everyone can continue to evolve. All circumstances in your life are contracted by your higher, eternal self for the evolution of your human soul. You are developing a soul body for your higher self to express more and more fully through. Accepting this, even when you may not be entirely sure what you have gained from your painful experiences, there can be healing at levels that could never happen where you hold on to blame and hurt. Forgiveness comes like a strong rain, hitting the ground and rising up like a mist, carrying the suffering, pain, guilt, blame, and all negativity back to the source of love; freshening all of life. Like lightening, it shatters the illusion of darkness and clears the air of our soul. It makes you feel alive again, to cry and smile and laugh. It sets you free. Sometimes it comes like a quiet wave of relaxation and sound sleep. Let it find

its way to you. Simple Forgiveness: (Feel free to substitute a different name where God is used below such as Goddess, Essence of Truth, Great Mystery, Divine Oneness or whatever works for you) 1 - Wherever you feel hurt, resentment, frustration, anger, blame, physical pain or any negative state this will work: Open your heart as though you had eyes within the center of your chest. Then lookand feel from there right into the hurt places in your body and soul and the feelings you hold there. Let yourself be present with those feelings, but not lost in them, observe them through your open heart. Then send this invitation: God, be here with me right within this place where there is hurt. Be between me and whatever person or circumstance I associate with it. Then open your heart and let God’s presence come right into the “yuck” of the situation. 2 – God forgive us here. Repeat that a few times from right within the emotions. Continue until you feel the energy start to clear or follow step 2B for a stronger release. Surrender all the energy around and within the circumstance into God’s unconditional love and let the forgiveness in. 2B – Where it doesn’t release easily, imagine little screaming mouths right within the place where you feel the emotional charge or discomfort. Staying centered within your heart as suggested in step 1 (it won’t work if you are in your head), let those little mouths scream for you, releasing the energy to God to clear. This is surprisingly effective and fast, it only takes a few seconds for it to release, and it does so cleanly, without being toxic. When you feel complete with that, then repeat step 2. You can do this with one issue, or 100, whatever feels ready to be released. Don’t forget to forgive yourself for any disempowering or unkind thoughts and judgments you have projected inward. My favorite place to do this meditation is while taking a sea salt bath, since sea salt pulls toxic psychic energy out of your body and neutralizes it so it can be safely washed down the drain. But anywhere will do. For a sea salt bath use 2 cups of ordinary sea salt to a bath. Afterward rinse, moisturize and feel new!

Killer Bacteria on the Rise... A new alert just in from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cautions hospitals to be on guard for a strain of bacteria that is mightier than any antibiotic. This bacteria preys on the weak and kills up to half of its victims. It goes by the name of CRE for short. Other members of the same bacterial family include Klebsiella and E. coli, which are bacteria normally, found in the digestive system that can become CRE. Who is at Risk? People who are healthy are not generally at risk for CRE infections; however, CRE infections can occur in places where people are receiving medical treatment for other conditions. The group most susceptible includes those who are on ventilators or using bladder or intravenous catheters. In addition, patients who are on longterm antibiotic use are also at risk. Why the Alert? This dangerous superbug has been steadily on the rise over the past decade. The CRE bacteria are so threatening that they are now being referred to as “nightmare bacteria.” Their power is threefold and includes their resistance to any antibiotics, their ability to pass this resistance to other bacteria and the deadly nature of the infection they promote. In the first half of 2012 more than 200 health care facilities in America treated patients with CRE. The big fear is that these infections brought on by the CRE’s will start to seep out of hospitals into surrounding communities. Containment is a top priority of hospitals across the country at this time. Hospitals and healthcare facilities are being encouraged to test patients for the bug and isolate them immediately. 14

All tools and equipment must be sterilized, and visitors are urged to follow strict hygiene rules. Antibiotics and Superbugs. Antibiotic resistance is, according to the CDC, a leading world health problem. Doctors first began to notice resistance problems almost a decade ago when kids with middle-ear infections stopped responding to the drugs they were being given (sound familiar moms?). Penicillin has also become less effective over time, in addition to a new strain of staph bacteria that does not respond to antibiotics at all. So, what exactly causes an antibiotic to become resistant? One reason has to do with the fact that people are taking antibiotics for viruses, which is ineffective. Antibiotics are meant to fight bacteria, not viruses, and this means they are not going to help you if you have a sore throat (not from strep), bronchitis, runny nose or the flu. Physicians who just arbitrarily prescribe antibiotics without first confirming an infection are contributing to the resistance problem. According to the CDC, more than 10 million courses of antibiotics are given each year for non-infectious conditions. In addition, if you have been given a course of antibiotics and do not finish it…you leave room for leftover bacteria in your system to become resistant to future antibiotic use. It is not just human use of antibiotics that are contributing to the resistance problem. The industrialized meat and poultry industry uses antibiotics to promote growth and ward off disease due to unsanitary living conditions. Over 70% of antibiotics are used as food additives and are given to healthy animals. These antibiotics make their way into local water supplies via animal excrement and also into the food chain. (This is why we should be eating only organic meat Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

and poultry because you are not getting antibiotics, nor are you getting the growth hormones, which can also have a negative affect on our bodies) It should be noted that both agribusiness leaders and the pharmaceutical industry are fighting against any measures to control antibiotic use in agriculture at this time. These are scary times indeed that require consumer awareness and education, stricter restrictions with regards to antibiotic use and an increased emphasis on preventative health measures. Hand washing is the key. So often these bugs move through the hospital via the hands of healthcare workers. Electronic hand hygiene monitoring and reporting systems would remind healthcare workers to wash before patient contact and could record all hand washing in the facility. If you’re a patient in a hospital, you must demand that all doctors, nurses and staff members wash their hands before touching you. This is probably the most effective preventative health measure. So often we hear of a friend or loved one that went into the hospital for one condition and developed another much serious health problem I hope you’ve enjoyed this article, God Bless, Dr. Michael D.

Two Easy Weight Loss Programs Patients are always interested in losing weight this time of year and are asking me what can they do? So, here are two programs that seem to always work. One is Isagenix and the other is my Nutritional testing. Here are some testimonials. Dr Michael Reggish put me on “The 9-Day Cleaning and Fat Burning system” and in 27 days I lost 49 lbs…This program worked great for me and was the easiest program that I ever did. I was never hungry. You must go into Dr Reggish’s office and see my testimonial videos. - Betty B. Westland, Michigan I noticed right away from the very first day that I felt more energy and I felt balanced. I had no cravings for anything that was not healthy. I felt like I was doing something really good for my body and soul. I felt like I was removing harmful ingredients from my body. I think Isagenix is for everyone. - Hope H., New York For more information on this program, go to: www. drreggish.isagenix.com This program was meant to last 9 days, but I changed it up to last 11 days. Doing it the Isagenix way will get you to lose on the average of 3-5 lbs. But doing it my way…and you’ll average about 4-8 lbs or more during the 11 days. One patient lost 20 lbs in a one 11 day period. Another lost 18 lbs. Retail price for the 11 day program is $186.95…Wholesale price is $142.95. But for a limited time the first 10 people can purchase the 11 day program for $109.95. That’s $33 below wholesale cost with S&H included or $77. below retail. Why sell it below the wholesale price?...Because I’m going to make 10 people very happy. Check the website and you’ll see the prices for yourself. Don’t wait to call, because there’s only 10 kits left at the below wholesale price. Our next program is our famous “Nutritional Testing”. With this program the patient usually loses on the average of 2-5 lbs a week while following a healthy eating program. This program is not a diet. You are tested for Major Food Allergies, Heavy Metals and Toxic Chemicals, and Immune March 2013

Challenges (Bacteria, Viruses, Flu Viruses, Retro Viruses, Four different types of Fungus) and Parasites. All of these tests are done for a single fee of $45. By implementing what you’ve learned from these test results…you automatically lose weight. But wait…There’s good news. For the month of April 2013 you can use this 50% off coupon so all these tests will be done for only $22.50. The Reggish Holistic Wellness Clinic

For the Month of Apr 2013 Terms: Good for one visit. Must present ad at time of visit.

My first week after being tested, I lost 5 lbs following Dr. Reggish’s program and that’s after I cheated. Dr Reggish said he expected better from me, so the second week I lost an amazing 12 lbs doing everything perfectly, just like the Doc said.…I couldn’t have been any happier and it’s not even a diet. Dr. Reggish, you’re the best. ~ Terry D. I’m a personal trainer and I’ve won state and national championships. I felt like I knew how to eat. But something happened when I turned 45 and I couldn’t lose this extra weight. So I went to see Dr. Reggish. I found out the foods there were foods I was allergic to. I gave them up and got rid of a whole lot of toxins. The first week I lost 8 lbs. This was a miracle. I’ve been trying to lose weight for the last five years and wasn’t losing anything. But, by doing what Dr. Reggish said, I’ve lost 8 lbs in one week. Not only that…but I worked out in the gym two times that week. For the last 5 years, I never had the energy. I feel blessed.

Goal Setting Tips

The Twelve Blessings

GOALS- This time of year is perfect for setting goals. Meditate on what you want to accomplish this year. Allow yourself to daydream. Let go of your fears, worries, “how” and “what ifs?” Let yourself see and feel your future self with goals accomplished. HOME- When you clean, try rearranging a part of your home. Add spring colors, fresh plants and flowers. Plants are an excellent source of oxygen. COLOR- One of the main colors in spring is green. Shades of green surround us in every direction with its healing energy. The new trend in color this year is emerald. Green is also the color of our heart chakras and gives energy to the heart, lungs and circulatory system. OILS- A good essential oil to use is geranium which can be healing to the skin after a dry winter and it’s mood elevating properties. Bergamot is uplifting and aids in stimulating digestion. Ylang ylang is an antidepressant and aphrodisiac. HERBS- Mugwort when made into a tea can help bring vision and greater clarity of mind. Dandelion is a wonderful tea and liver detoxifier. BODY - Light exercise will help with circulation and bring new energy. Taking a walk helps us ground/connect with the earth, plus it’s great for our body and mind. Jennifer Vanderwal has been a Melody Crystal healing instructor since 2004. She is a Master of the Usui Tibetan Karuna Seiryoku system of Reiki since 1999.

Profound, surprising, radical and engaging, The Twelve Blessings reveals a modern message of Universal Love in action for humanity. In 1958, an extraordinary English Medium and Spiritual Master, George King, was overshadowed by Jesus, which began a chain of events culminating in the giving of The Twelve Blessings. This mystic text contains secrets and practices to help us through this Era of Change; it has found its way around the world for 55 years, transforming the lives of many. The sheer power of The Master Jesus’ life and teachings has spanned the centuries. He not only taught universal love, but He demonstrated the higher octaves of this great energy of Creation. Whether one is Christian or not, nobody can deny the profound and lasting impact that Jesus has had upon our world. His status is elevated; His teachings enlightened, and his mission far-reaching. The Twelve Blessings embodies His elevated teachings, and includes a Cosmic concept in keeping with the New Age in which we now live. I speak from decades of study and practice of this unbelievably beautiful mystic text which is, more importantly, a Spiritual practice. This practice, which can be performed in only fifteen minutes, is vital for one’s own inner peace, as well as a potent practice to send healing and love to our world. I knew from a young age that I was searching for something extraordinary. I felt there was something I could find that would make a profound difference to me and our world, and spent years studying religious philosophies, Theosophical literature and many metaphysical tomes. As is so often the case on a spiritual quest, people, opportunities, books and teachers come along when least expected. I was just 16 when I was given a slim, blue volume entitled, The Twelve Blessings. I turned it in my hand and felt a rising excitement. This was my moment; the initiation into deepest Truth that I had been seeking! I have found that not only is The Twelve Blessings so relevant to this Age, but is the essence, the core of my own spiritual practices. It brings me spiritual sustenance, strength and inspiration when the world around is cold and dark. It brings me love, hope and faith; it brings me joy, as well as a certain protection that I have needed on several occasions. The Twelve Blessings can prepare us all by strengthening us and bringing light and healing to our world.

Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

More importantly than our own inner strength and peace, is the future of our world. The Twelve Blessings reveals its sacred mysteries through the language of direct action. These wonderful Blessings illustrate how we can use the practical wisdom within its pages to unfold our soul’s highest potential and help transform the world – through our love in action, the song of our soul – prayer.

Exceptions It does seem that to every rule there is an exception. This rule is the exception to the rule. We had a friend that decided to become a vegetarian. There are lots of different types of vegetarians, so he came up with a simple definition of what he could not eat. He would not eat anything that had eyes. We said that he should make one exception, potatoes. Another vegetarian friend made one exception to his “no meat” rule. When he had pizza he had pepperoni. His justification was that there is no meat in pepperoni, just filler and chemical by products. Come to think of it, he might be right! We know people who do not believe in mixed marriages or in same sex marriages. It seems like that is contradictory. If a marriage between a male and a female is not a mixed marriage, what is? Think of the number of people you know who are “tough on crime.”

They say that anyone that commits a crime should be punished to the full extent of the law. They also exempt themselves, at least from laws they do not agree with, like traffic laws. When we were in college a book was published showing that women and African-Americans were inherently less intelligent than white men. That was the same week that Mensa released the name of the smartest American from their testing. She was black. Someone we know extremely well is a natural blond. In a science class, she was accused of dying her hair, by the instructor. The book said that blond hair is finer, and when they used micrometers to measure the thickness of all the students hair in the room, her hair was the thickest. In a linguistics class in college a professor was going over some of the general rules. He stated that in many languages a double negative is used for emphasis. In English and mathematics a double negative is a positive. In spite of this, in no language is a double positive a negative. At that point in the lecture, a voice piped up from the back of the room and said “yeh right!” There are other types of exceptions. Like the family with ten children, who had all been taught a strong moral code but had little ambition. They all ended up at minimum wage jobs, except for one. He got into trouble and, as a juvenile, was incarcerated. There, he studied, and when he got out, he finished school, went to college and became a successful doctor. At one time we were in a market for a camera. When we went to a store we often used, they showed us one Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

camera that was much less than the competition because Consumer’s Reports had given it a bad rating. The store showed us the article and we trusted that their research was accurate. Reading the article was great. All of the features they said were missing were ones we would never us. The functions they said tended to distract the average user, were features we would have been disappointed with if they were missing. So, based on their research, we bought the camera. It served us well and out-lasted the one they recommended, which a friend of ours had bought. But then, we are an exception. On a similar note, we were with our grandchildren awhile back. We were in line with one of them to go down a waterslide. They looked up at us and said that we were not grandparents. They see all of their friend’s grandparents, and their grandparents are on the other side. Grandparents bring children places like water parks and sit and watch. Grandparents do not go down waterslides, go snorkeling or many of the other activities we do with them. Exceptions can be fun. They are the things that make each of us unique. Enjoy those times when, for your own good, you are the exception.

Three Trees on a Hill Once there were three trees on a hill in the woods. They were discussing their hopes and dreams when the first tree said, “Someday I hope to be a treasure chest. I could be filled with gold, silver and precious gems. I could be decorated with intricate carving and everyone would see the beauty.” Then the second tree said, “Someday I will be a mighty ship. I will take kings and queens across the waters and sail to the corners of the world. Everyone will feel safe in me because of the strength of my hull.” Finally the third tree said, “I want to grow up to be the tallest and straightest tree in the forest. People will see me on top of the hill and look up to my branches, and think of the heavens and God and how close to them I am reaching. I will be the greatest tree of all time and people will always remember me.” After a few years of praying their dreams would come true, a group of woodsmen came upon the trees. When one came to the first tree he said, “This looks like a strong tree; I think I should be able to sell the wood to a carpenter,” and he began cutting it down. The tree was happy because he knew that the carpenter would make him into a treasure chest. At the second tree the woodsman said, “This looks like a strong tree, March 2013

made a crib for the baby, but this manger would have to do. The tree could feel the importance of this event and knew that it had held the greatest treasure of all time.

I should be able to sell it to a shipyard.” The second tree was happy because he knew he was on his way to becoming a mighty ship. When the woodsman came upon the third tree, the tree was frightened because he knew that if they cut him down his dreams would not come true. One of the woodsmen said, “I don’t need anything special from my tree, I’ll take this one,” and he cut it down. When the first tree arrived at the carpenters, he was made into a feed box for animals. He was then placed in a barn and filled with hay. This was not at all what he had prayed for. The second tree was cut and made into a small fishing boat. His dreams of being mighty ship and carrying kings had come to an end. The third tree was cut into large pieces and left alone in the dark. The years went by, and the trees forgot about their dreams. Then one day a man and a woman came to the barn. She gave birth and they placed the baby in the hay in the feed box that was made from the first tree. The man wished that he could have

www.BodyMindSpiritRADIO.com

Years later, a group of men got in the fishing boat made from the second tree. One of them was tired and went to sleep. While they were out on the water, a great storm arose and the tree didn’t think it was strong enough to keep the men safe. The men woke the sleeping man, and he stood and said “Peace” and the storm stopped. At this time, the tree knew that it had carried the King of Kings in its boat. Finally, someone came and got the third tree. It was carried through the streets as the people mocked the man who was carrying it. When they came to a stop, the man was nailed to the tree and raised in the air to die at the top of a hill. When Sunday came, the tree came to realize that it was strong enough to stand at the top of the hill and be as close to God as possible, because Jesus had been crucified on it. The moral of this story is that when things don’t seem to be going your way, always know that God has a plan for you. If you place your trust in Him, He will give you great gifts. Each of the trees got what they wanted, just not in the way they had imagined. We don’t always know what God’s plans are for us. We just know that His ways are not our ways, but His ways are best. --- Author Unknown yet Appreciated P a g e 19

The Physiology of Success Success comes to those who are able to complete projects in a timely manner. Whether projects are for school, hobbies, or large scale production, everyone wants the satisfaction of completion. The problem is that a large number of people aren’t able to complete projects they’ve started or are unable to get started at all. Many believe that this problem relates to a lack of motivation or laziness; but in my experience, this is rarely the case. If you’d like to complete more projects and enjoy more success, see if you’re able to identify yourself in any of the following scenarios: The first describes people who are able to do whatever is necessary to start, execute and complete tasks. Throughout the task, flexibility allows them to insert changes whenever necessary in order to achieve the desired result. You’re lucky if this describes you! You’d make a terrific employee or business owner. Chances are that you’re very successful at everything you undertake and are doing things to stay healthy, including keeping your sympathetic and your parasympathetic nervous systems in balance. If you aren’t, keep reading to find out what you should be doing! The next scenario describes people who have lots of enthusiasm starting a project but get lost along the way. They start new projects before finishing the first one. Although the degree of completion varies, few projects are ever completed and they become frustrated. Often these are highly intelligent people who may become even more frustrated as they become aware of their problem. The last scenario describes people who have good intentions of getting started but as the saying goes - they just can’t quite get all their ducks in a row - the epitome of a procrastinator. One might question whether these March 2013

personality types are the result of upbringing or genetics. Fortunately, we know through the science of epigenetics (Thank you, Dr. Bruce Lipton) that we are not the victims of our forbearer’s genes as was long believed. We can also thank science for shedding light on some of the factors that influence why some people are better at completing tasks and are enjoying more success. It’s undeniable that one’s health influences one’s success. Therefore, it seems obvious that having healthy neural communication pathways that run through our brain is critically important to our functioning. These communication pathways or governing systems that have a primary influence on our functioning and decision-making are part of the autonomic nervous system, and include the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous systems. When these systems are in balance and working properly, life is good. This sounds simple, but it explains more than you might imagine! As sub-systems of the autonomic nervous system, both the sympathetic and the parasympathetic nervous systems operate automatically. We don’t have to think about it for it to work; it’s automatic. Thank heavens, because no one would want to be responsible for telling their heart to beat or their lungs to breathe, as well as all the other tasks that the body handles without any conscious direction. Perhaps it’s time to take notice of these systems. (More in next month’s article.) The sympathetic system picks up information from the environment and the body responds by dealing with the potential threats. This is what is referred to as, ‘fight or flight’. The job of the sympathetic nervous systems is to shut down as much of the normal functioning of the body as possible and redirect all available energy for protection from any perceived threats. Threats are perceived as greater when the spine is impaired and signaling is altered, thus reducing

www.BodyMindSpiritRADIO.com

our perception of what’s truly going on. When we are unable to start or finish projects, it falls under what is called sympathetic overload. With sympathetic overload, there’s a good chance that the vertebrae in our spine are misaligned which alters our perceptions which leads to misreading the true environment. Parasympathetic overdrive comes into play when describing those who can’t get started on projects. (Explained in more detail at my workshop on April 30th at the Livonia Civic Center Library.) One of the best ways to keep the autonomic nervous system running smoothly is by correcting subluxations of the spine through chiropractic adjustments. This allows the proper flow of information to go to the brain to run the body. To effectively balance the sympathetic system that resides mostly within the spine, and the parasympathetic which resides mostly near the spine on either side, I utilize an instrument called an adjuster. Proper nutrition is also essential for keeping the autonomic nervous system in good health. However, in the case of nutritional deficiencies, you may need to supplement with specific high quality whole food supplements that help re-regulate the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems of the body. Be sure to have an experienced professional with a strong background in nutrition check to see what may be best for your particular needs. Sanity has been identified as the number of completed tasks on hand; lack of sanity relates to the number of incomplete tasks - both those started and not yet started. Don’t let unfinished tasks make you crazy! Take the necessary steps to rebalance your nervous system. Put yourself back in control. Stay sane, be efficient, complete projects, and enjoy life and success in all you do! Dr. William H. Karl, D.C., please see his ad on the left ... P a g e 21

Do You Want A Life Of Greater Prosperity And Love? Why don’t you open to love, dearest? Have you lost hope in yourself, life, or humanity? Life has not lost hope in you. The birds still sing, the universe expands and opportunities await. You are cherished and loved. You do have a choice -- a choice to participate in the miracle that is Life-Creation-God. Our pain, limiting beliefs, and attachments to love outside of ourselves, cause us to close to the blessings that are always waiting for our simple invitation. Humanity equates pain with love. Pain and love now married as one, a person will continually search for a love they will never find. Love does not hurt you, only your attachments to love. Meaning, seek approval-security- or a sense of worth from the love you give, and you will be hurt. Give love to feel love as you, from your devotion to Life-God and you are free to Love deeper than you can imagine. God-Love is your source. Love can express through people, nature, music etc. However, people in your life will not always be able to love you in the way you deserve. When they pull away or project their unresolved pain, you have a choice to close down too. Realize, it is not their words or actions that hurt the most, it is your shutting down to Love. Allow your inherent Divinity, dear one, to feed you, and then all the channels of Creation will love you. Don’t let your partner, parent or friend define your whole reality. If you close to love, romance or prosperity you close off to feeling your own divinity and connection to the universe. March 2013

There is no greater joy than feeling the love within you expressing out, fully detached from the outcome. How do you give love in this powerful way? Give, serve, express love to all whom you meet, to simply FEEL your connection. Allow the raging river of prosperity to flow through you, as you and in you, for Humanity and

God. Divine law: Express love, get love back. Divine law, like gravity, just is -meaning gravity doesn’t care what you’ve done or how much money you have... it just works. Divine law, like gravity, doesn’t take a day off. Open up, express love detached from the outcome, and then love-prosperity will be experienced. Any resentment you hold towards yourself and others will block prosperity and love. Forgiveness is an important tool to opening to love. People become afraid of a new venture, romance, success and prosperity. We have unknowingly equated these expressions of Love...with pain. We think it is safer to ‘remain in the bud’, but all the while not realizing we are dying. Desire (De. Sire.) means ‘of the father’. Admitting your dreams and desires is key to opening to love and greater living. In sessions, I will ask, “What is your dream?” Most will answer, “I don’t know.” Most are unwilling to admit what they really want, because doing so would confront them with the pain and limiting belief that is in the way. Are you willing to admit what pain you have equated with what you desire? This month I am sharing with you a powerful Self Acceptance Process I use in sessions and workshops that gets tremendous results: 1. Write a list of your dreams and wants. Have fun! Write all that comes to you; don’t worry about ‘the how’, or go into thinking, “I shouldn’t want this.” 2. Start with a desire that would bring you the most joy. Take that desire and

www.BodyMindSpiritRADIO.com

now write a list of the pain you associate with it. Be honest. If you don’t have what you want, it is because you have equated pain to love, or pain to your desire. 3. Hold the ‘pain list’ to your heart and feel the pain. Feel with compassion as if you are holding a child. Do this for 5 minutes. Feeling with non judgment, IS healing. 4. Write a second list. Ask this question: “How would it feel to be available to ________ (Fill in with your desire...ie: love, money, romance). Write out ALL the words and associations that you think of. 5. Hold the ‘availability list’ to your chest, FEEL the words, and every minute or so, say out loud the word, “YES!” Do this for 5 minutes. Reprogram yourself to equate JOY with your desire, instead of past pain and attachments. 6. Next time you see yourself shutting down to life and desires, tap in the middle of your breast bone and repeat the words you wrote in #4. This technique will powerfully shift you out of the limiting thoughts and into a greater receptivity to all the good that is seeking to come to you. Repeat 1-5, until when you think of your desire, you FEEL as if it is already here. Say, “YES” to life, love and prosperity. You must choose love a million times in one lifetime. You are given many restarts and redo’s in one lifetime. Every time you ‘get back in the saddle’ you discover an even greater you. YOU are here to grow; there are no failures, as long as you gain the lesson. In service, Barbra White.

Rock of the Month Spirit Quartz

body, and facilitate optimal functioning of the chakras and meridians.

Spirit Quartz , mined only in South Africa, is a very unusual stone. Small crystal point’s form around a candle shaped central shaft. It is normally Amethyst, but some are whitish quartz or citrines. It is also referred to as Cactus Quartz or Porcupine Quartz, names inspired by the unique formation. Believe it or not, Spirit Quartz, because of its color, is named after a popular South African window cleaning solution named, “Spirit.” What does this have to do with naming the stone? Window cleaning solution removes the dirt and grime and facilitates clearer vision. Ironically, the energy of this stone is similar to that solution. How is that? Spirit quartz does the same thing! It cleans the energy body and allows for inner reflection, seeing things from a higher perspective. This stone brings the aspects of the lower mind into alignment with the higher self. It is powerful for cleansing and purifying the auric field. It can repair “holes” in the etheric body, remove negative attachments and entities, balance the astral

Take care of yourself! You Are Worth It!

The overriding quality of this stone is for use in meditation. It helps bring peace of mind and calms fear and doubt. Most of us can relate to the fact that fear holds us back and limits our productivity, happiness and peace. When we are in fear, we often make choices that hold us hostage to circumstances that result in sacrificing our joy and freedom in life. Let go of fear and we are present to life as it unfolds -- ready to truly live life’s experiences fully from a place of presence and peace. A magnificent quality of this stone is the willingness of each little point to work in alignment with the host, producing harmony. This stone harmonizes the energies of the subtle bodies and integrates the energies at the physical level to dispel energies that are not in alignment with their higher vibration. Spirit Quartz focuses on bringing harmonious energies to the crown and third eye, facilitating communication with Spirit, guides, and the higher self. It helps connect us to the experience of oneness with All-ThatIs. Often used in healing sessions, this stone helps align the energies and remove blockages at the physical levels, permitting more of a vibrational alignment in the energies of the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical bodies. Spirit Quartz helps us put aside the needs of self for the benefit of the greater good. This stone is a must for people who are anti-social, fearful, selfish, narcissistic, confrontational, and self-centered. It is an ally for those who are shy and lack self confidence.

Stress Management. A lecturer, when explaining stress Management to an audience, raised a glass of water and asked, “How heavy is this glass of water?” Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g. The lecturer replied, “The absolute weight doesn’t matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it. If I hold it for a minute, that’s not a problem.. If I hold it for an hour, I’ll have an ache in my right arm. If I hold it for a day, you’ll have to call an ambulance. In each case, it’s the same weight, but the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes.” He continued, “And that’s the way it is with stress management. If we carry our burdens all the time, sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly heavy, we won’t be able to carry on.” “As with the glass of water, you have to put it down for a while and rest before holding it again. When we’re refreshed, we can carry on with the burden.” “So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of work down. Don’t carry it home. You can pick it up tomorrow. Whatever burdens you’re carrying now, let them down for a moment if you can.” So, my friend, Put down anything that may be a burden to you right now. Don’t pick it up again until after you’ve rested a while. ~Author Unknown

Spring into Spring Spring is here, and everyone wants to become more active. Proper hydration is essential in order to be active. Without water, the human body will survive only three days. Water makes up 75% of the body, 90% of the blood, and 85% of the brain. The rule for water consumption is to drink one-half your body weight in ounces. Failure to drink sufficient water causes signs of dehydration that are often ignored. Dehydration indicators occur long before you run out of water. Chronic dehydration is widespread today and does not have immediate symptoms. It affects everyone who is not drinking enough liquid. Cognitive function decreases 5%, with a 1% decrease in body hydration levels. This manifests as brain fog, or the “I can’t remember” syndrome that many people experience. If you have any of these symptoms: fatigue, constipation, digestive disorders, high or low blood pressure, gastritis or stomach trouble, respiratory trouble, acid-alkaline imbalance, excess weight and obesity, eczema, cholesterol issues, urinary infections, rheumatism, or premature aging, you may need to drink more water. Drinking clean water is essential to good health. But which drinking water is the cleanest? You might guess bottled water. But, bottled water is not necessarily cleaner than tap water. FDA purity requirements for city water systems are far more stringent than for bottled water companies. The plastic from the bottles can leach into the drinking water. Bottled water creates more pollution by filling our landfills. Bottled water is often tap water that

has been filtered, and then sold to the consumer. Tap water is the least expensive source of water. However, you do not want to drink unfiltered tap water due to the drugs, chemicals and toxins in the water. A gallon of filtered water from your tap costs about 10 to 18 cents per gallon. At $1 to $4 per gallon, bottled water is at least 10 times more expensive than home filtered water. Unfortunately, most filtration systems remove the essential alkaline minerals in the filtration process, creating clean, dead water. Mineral supplementation does not work to replace these electrolytes, and deficiencies develop. The most common mineral deficiency symptoms include acid reflux, altered blood pressure, fatigue, joint pains, and muscle cramps. Between dehydration and mineral deficiencies, it is difficult to have a spring in your step. Spring into spring by making diet and lifestyle changes.

Cornucopia Kids: too much or too little? On the surface, it seems that all is well in suburbia. Although the economy has restricted some spending in many homes, there are recreational “toys” for almost everyone, including mom & dad. Although modern parents are typically self-sacrificing achievers, today’s children are not learning the direct relationship between effort and reward. Listen to what we are actually saying: “I’ve tried and tried to get Jason to do some work around the yard. I’ll even pay him, but he isn’t interested.” “Michelle did it again—lost her shoes at the park. She just isn’t responsible and doesn’t seem to care about anything.” “These kids have everything. I don’t understand why their grades are so poor.” The cornucopia is the mythical horn of a plentiful harvest, always full to overflowing. What if the very plentitude you offer your children is imbalanced and has not led them to an appreciation of it? Consider the following: Are you giving (and giving in) too much? Which of the following fits? 1. Your child’s room is literally filled with toys and fun things that he or she had to have, but rarely enjoys. He or she has a cavalier attitude toward his own and others’ property. 2. Does your child lack depth and follow-through on projects or hobbies once the novelty and fun wear off? He or she can’t seem to complete even the simplest homework task? 3. Do you give “things” to reduce guilt for not spending quality time with your child or to compensate for your own strict upbringing? “I’m never going to do to my children what my parents did to me.” 4. Is your child’s capacity for compassion and sensitivity to the needs and feelings of others 28

immature and superficial? 5. Does your child have a constant need for stimulation from outside sources? Can he or she creatively occupy himself or herself or do you often hear loud complaints of boredom? It might help you to examine this partial list of indulgent parental behaviors from a child’s point of view: Life is secure. Life is good. What is demanded from me can usually be avoided. Little personal accountability is necessary. Parents, who give or give in too much, communicate a powerful message: “I can get whatever I want from my parents. I don’t have to listen to anybody. I am in control. Good things will come if I just demand them or make a scene.” When these messages are internalized, the stage is set for the child to remain immature and to encounter difficulties later with others and at work. After the Christmas holidays a few years ago, the parents of a seven year old boy with “Cornucopia Complex” brought him in for therapy. The boy was crying and withdrawn, while his parents loudly yelled at him in anger. They told me that Ricky was selfish, spoiled and never satisfied, that he had been hostile and crying for two weeks, and that they “didn’t know how to discipline his belligerence and aggression.” After giving Ricky and each parent a turn to describe the situation as he or she perceived it, I made an intuitive guess and asked Ricky if he was disappointed with the things he had received. His mother jumped in with further impatience, so I redirected the question to Ricky. “Yes,” he said quietly. “They promised me that Santa Claus would bring the special Star Wars sets and figures I wanted, and that they would give me legos and things like that. When I complained that Santa didn’t bring me most of the things I really wanted, they told me he wasn’t even real, and when I cried, they said I was Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

acting like a baby.” I wanted Ricky to stay in the play room and over-hear the conversation I had with his parents. He began setting up some props and figures from Clone Wars while I asked the parents how they dealt with disappointment, eventually suggesting that Ricky had simply not yet learned how to handle it. The session ended with apologies and forgiveness, and with hugs and expressions of love. The next week, when Ricky came back, some of the tension between he and his parents had been resolved, but there were still too many times when Ricky tried to talk about his feelings that he either wasn’t heard or was unwittingly put down for being vulnerable. We worked as a family on reflective listening, good communication skills and values clarification for several sessions. An incident at school revealed a difficulty with accepting failure and became an important focus. By helping Ricky deal adaptively with failing, even after doing his best, Ricky learned that he had certain strengths and weaknesses, and that each setback could be turned into a learning experience. Sometimes old patterns repeat and create “stuckness” in our primary relationships. That is when we need to seek help. And what an important lesson that is, in itself, to teach your children. Part of the responsibility of parenting is closely examining the values you are transmitting to your children through your example, responses and interactions. It is critical to instill integrity instead of indulgence; to create character not conformity; to build motivation rather than materialism; and sensitivity rather than selfishness. Lynn Vaughn, PhD If your child does not seem to appreciate the “good life” and you can relate to this article, call me at 248-921-7922. I can help your child become more responsible and show you where you might be excessively giving.

Spring Forward into Change – The April Lunar Eclipse We love the Spring, especially here in Michigan. It begins hesitantly in March, as if a little shy; and the expectant sparkle in the air that so typifies this spectacular season blossoms with the cherry trees in April/May. March is also a time of new beginnings astrologically, as the Sun enters the first Sign of the Zodiac, Aries, urging us to leave the past behind and focus on the here and now. This urge will continue in April, with an important Lunar Eclipse on April 25 in the sign of Scorpio. Solar and Lunar Eclipses are special New and Full Moons that bring significant changes to our personal lives as well as to the world. They are powerful indicators of change and, as such, can bring turmoil. You may already be feeling the influence of this Eclipse, for it can be felt three months beforehand and at least six months afterwards. This Lunar Eclipse is in powerful, passionate Scorpio. Also, the planet Saturn joins with the Moon, bringing focus to the turmoil of change. It’s as if we’re being urged to let go of people, places or things that have outlived their purpose and are dragging us down but, at the same time, Saturn’s influence keeps us in a holding pattern. Once we understand Saturn’s wisdom, we can gain the power needed to change. How to do that? Understand the lesson in the experience you are undergoing. Avoid a victim mentality – “Why does my boss treat me so badly?” Realize that karma is exact and you are and have been in exactly the situation you have put yourself – for a reason. As soon as we learn the lessons inherent within all our experiences, we can move on. Perhaps your boss treats you Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

badly because you participate on some level; perhaps it is time for you to speak out. Look honestly at any complex situations in your life and realize they are due to come to a head so that you can embrace better relationships, a more fulfilling career or whatever the situation might be. The Lunar Eclipse in Scorpio is all about power; it is inner power that is needed here. Be strong; be honest with yourself and learn all you can so that you can move onwards and upwards. The planetary symphony of the Cosmos is always there to help us and to guide us, if we allow it. You can learn more about the energies of the Sun and Moon, and the Elements at my new class on Sunday, May 19 – “The Magic of the Elements: Astrology, Healing and the Forces of Nature.” (See ad for details).

She is the author of nine published books, including “Mercury Retrograde.” She is an ordained priest at The Aetherius Society in Royal Oak.

Are You Burdened by Fate? Can Individuals with Traumatic Childhoods Become Free Adults? Many individuals are burdened by especially difficult fates. Some fates are carried from childhood and involve especially traumatic events such as difficult births, early separation from mother due to sickness and/or death, child molestation, extreme depravation, neglect, poverty, and sometime homelessness. These early traumas are then carried as burdens and often create significant dysfunctions well into adulthood. A couple of questions are raised. Can these early traumatic events ever be resolved? And, can adults who experienced birth or childhood trauma ever become fully functioning adults? The answer is a resounding, YES! And, Systemic Family Constellations can resolve these very difficult challenges. Systemic Family Constellations asks the difficult question: Does an individual’s difficult fate really belong to him or her? Or, is he or she entangled with the fate of an ancestor? People do this, although they have never met the ancestor, or even heard his or her name. This is done out of “love” for those who have passed before. It is generally unconscious, because often the ancestor has died without having the opportunity to resolve traumatic issues. The person in the present becomes entangled—sometimes following the ancestor into an early death by becoming extremely ill, by experiencing repeated injuries, operations, or serious illnesses. A difficult or challenging fate can wear a person down, causing him or her constant grief or pain. Traumatic events in which the ancestors were involved may have included war, famine, banishment or expulsion from the homeland, because the jobs that supported them were no longer viable or available. Some ancestors were forced to travel far across continents and oceans, and many were exposed to seriously traumatic events right here in the United States. Many left the Old Country only to find even greater traumas here. Some indigenous peoples were forced to travel great distances, such as the march of the Cherokees on the Trail of Tears. Some miners from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan were forced to send their children in busloads to orphanages and foster homes around Detroit when the mines could no longer support their men. Slave owners separated wives from their men when they sold husbands to distant plantations in order to keep families from developing strength, and to prevent rebellions. Ever since the early settlers to the US, children have been separated from parents, husbands taken from wives, and mothers have left their children in order to work at jobs far from their homes. 34

These difficult fates are passed down through families, and many living today carry the scars of ancestral traumas they got through their parents. Many forms of therapy stress the need to feel and express anger towards parents who were simply victims of the fates they took on. Systemic Family Constellations allows for these traumas to be healed and the Orders of Love resolved in the family system—without blame. When an individual with a traumatic fate can see that the traumas have been passed down through generations, he or she is better able to look at the parents with love, and through to the generations before them, all the way back to the “healed ancestors,” to the very source of life. When the individual understands that he or she has taken life from his or her parents, and that this same life was passed down to him or her, they are better able to open their heart and let love flow in. These are the individual’s parents, their only parents, and even if adopted, the true mother and father are always the birth parents—even though in the past, adopted children rarely knew who the birth parents were. Since they are the only true parents, the birth parents are always the very “best” parents for that individual—even when that individual has never met the parents who gave them life. Every individual is limited by the parents they have, with only certain options being available to them. Based on who their parents are, some individuals have a tougher fate than others. However, as Bert Hellinger, creator of Systemic Family Constellations suggests, the more difficult a person’s life is, very often the greater gifts that person has been given, and therefore the greater heights that person can attain. But, in the end, parents are parents, and fate is fate, and there isn’t one that is better or worse than another! Therefore, no individual is better or worse than another!

Spiritual Horoscopes Aries (March 21 – April 19) – Happy birthday Aries! All month, Mars, your ruling planet, supplies you with tons of energy and ideas. But watch out for being over-enthusiastic, or even irritable, if others don’t want to bound ahead as excitedly as you do. By May, most people will be caught-up to your advanced concepts, so don’t get frustrated. Meanwhile, meditate on new goals and put personal plans into practice so that you move toward results. Just be patient with slow-pokes! Taurus (April 20 – May 20) – So many planets are in Aries, and they are rustling-up stuff in your subconscious. Meditate about hidden or suppressed anger. Acknowledging disappointments supplies energy that’s previously been spent pushing old stuff down. Forgiveness gives freedom and opens your heart to love, making new relationships come in, and current ones flow better. Also meditate on financial issues, since amazing solutions can pop into your mind! Gemini (May 21 – June 20) – Spice up relationships by trying new activities or spending time together with interesting friends. If single, you can meet someone new in the same ways. In meditation, focus on the areas of your life where

you are jealous. It could be about other people’s better finances, relationships, looks, or their self confidence. Release your resentments or frustrations, so the same level of good can flow into your life! Cancer (June 21 – July 22) – You can get a new job this month! Or at least you’ll be making more money somehow – whether it be a raise, bonus or promotion. You could also meet a romantic partner at work if single – or maybe have a new work partner who makes life easy for you. The key this month is to balance work with relationships. It might be easy to become a ‘workaholic’. Don’t forget other people in your life who also need you! Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) – You’ll be open to new spiritual paths, or have a revitalized interest in meditation. Follow your enthusiasm and make good progress this month. The trick is not to drop your disciplines when the novelty wears off. You’ll have important insights if you persist when stuff seems ho-hum or boring. Make a commitment now not to be a spiritual dilettante. Stay true to your path to grow and evolve! Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) – If your relationship or sex life has been boring, this month it will explode with passion! If single, you’ll attract someone who sees that divine fire within you. Meditate and focus on your own beauty, lusciousness and spiritual depth. You have so much to offer as a lover and as a spiritual partner. Don’t settle for anything less, and don’t think anything less of yourself! Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) – Meditate on releasing dysfunctional patterns you observed in and absorbed from your family! You can free yourself from Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

subconscious relationship sabotage. If single, you can begin a healthy partnership. If already coupled, you’ll improve your way of relating and be able to truly enjoy emotional intimacy. Also, look at your eating habits and how foods alter your mood – and how those bad moods affect others as well as yourself! Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) – Your thoughts affect your health – physical and mental! Meditate and observe your mind – also observe your thoughts throughout the day. See how negative and mean you can be to yourself. Make a spiritual commitment to stop! This is like an addiction – ask for help like an alcoholic in AA asks for help from a Higher Power. You can be free and happy! Don’t trust any idea in your head that is negative – it’s just your lower self trying to keep you down – it’s not some form of urging for self-improvement! Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) – This can be an amazing relationship month! So many planets are coming together and making you extra magnetic and appealing. However, your spiritual challenge is to observe how you could be subconsciously blocking that flow of energy. Let your power shine and make no excuses about your magnificence! You are not conceited – you are acknowledging how powerful the Universe is as it flows through you! Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) – It’s time to acknowledge how spiritually influential you are! Your meditation and self-improvement disciplines make you comforting and magnetic. People gain strength and hope from being around you – even if you are quiet and just being around them. It’s good to be humble, but please see you have a special gift that you’ve worked hard to cultivate! Keep up the great work and praise yourself! Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) – Make an effort to observe your thoughts.

You’re blessed with a powerful and curious mind, but can get carried away with over-analysis, worry or over-complicating things. The key is to blend your day-to-day intellect with your higher brain/intuition. Your intuition has simple answers to complex problems and can also soothe your mental tensions. Relax into the fact that you don’t have to struggle for all the answers! (Also contemplate that you could be “addicted” to your constant thinking!) Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) – You could have exciting financial breakthroughs or new work opportunities. There will probably be a tie-in with something charitable or meaningful to society. In general, contemplate how you use your time and money. Could you be doing something that is service oriented and making a contribution in some way? This is a sure-fire way to lift your Piscean spirits and help you feel valuable and connected. Aluna Michaels M.A. is a second-generation astrologer and Soul Evolutionist practitioner.

Love or Fear? From Course in Miracles, I learned that all emotions come from only two sources: Love or Fear. All positive feelings come from love, the Divine. All negative feelings come from fear, the ego (easing God out). When we hide fear beneath negative emotions, those responses are what we’ve been programmed by our parents, society, teachers... usually from a very young age, from the developing ego, in an attempt to survive and be accepted by those around us. Loved by those around us, and we forget who we are. We forget the Creator loves us always and forever. Be the love you are created to be. Whenever you make a mistake, be honest. Be mindful of the reaction, take a deep breath of divine inspiration, and transform and send out love in that instant... that holy instant.... towards yourself and others. Be, shine forth the love you are! We have a connection with the divine, with Source, when we allow the acknowledgement of it. This connection is of love and is, when we allow, and are mindful of , our guide towards love, away from the fear and destruction ego desires. As we have free will, Source will never order us to do anything. You always have a choice: Love/God or fear/ego. You get the gift of choice, you get the gift to choose your life. As you choose God/Source, you are actually choosing love, and love’s vibration. It is all one. God/Source, higher self, love... When you choose to get out of your own way and choose the divine, the universal vibrations, thoughts, emotions and actions of love, God/Source, you are actually choosing for your highest good. In choosing for your highest good, as all is one, your vibration matches, and influences the world, the universe. Us, each of us, being here matters. We are each an 40

important note in the concert of the universe. One note missing, off key, and we notice. There’s dis-harmony. We are each important to the whole. We can choose to raise the world in love, or lower it into fear. It is literally our choice. Being our choice, we are still the center of our world. What happens to and for us, how we perceive the world is directly the result of our own vibration, our own thoughts, and emotions, our own actions. I believe it was Einstein who said, “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.” In other words, as the bible says, “You reap what you sow.” Many cultures and inspired people have said the same thing in different ways. It’s a Universal Law. That is why when we change our thoughts and resulting emotions, the vibrations of our being in this world, others around us change also. And, as we choose the vibration of God/Source, love, more of that is attracted to you. Our world always reflects our self, who we really think we are. Fear’s lower vibration pulls us down and attracts more of that in our lives. It is to our benefit to be mindful of, and catch our inner thoughts and limiting beliefs that keep us in traps of our own making. Most of us did not hear how wonderful we were when we were young, and being more closely connected to God/ Source, our vibration was more in tune with love. I think that when parents, society, whomever, were in their fear, it was so jarring that we developed our ego to protect us, and gave into their vibrational quality as we were bombarded with the negative energy around us. Our parents did and do love us, yet they are human too, and make mistakes. Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

These fears and vibrations we took into ourselves, programming them into our subconscious and slowly draw away from the vibration of Love. Fed and developed the ego. Yet, this seems to be exactly what we do to have a human experience in this world, to learn our lessons and move back, gratefully towards Love. Towards knowing who we really are as Love and Light with the flame of the Divine within us, guiding us as we release the ego and let ourselves be guided by the light and love within. Feeding the flame of divinity with our energy, our focus, our love, and getting more and more of that back. A way to become mindful of our thoughts and at the same time open to guidance for the divine, our True Self, connected with God/Source, is to meditate, or at least take a deep belly breath and go within. The loud, commanding voice inside is the ego, our defenses, fears, limiting beliefs and self-sabotaging reactions. The quiet, compassionate, loving voice is just that... Love willing to guide you to your highest good. Again, your choice which voice, vibration to pay attention to, focus on, to feed energy to. We are gifted with the free will to choose who we want to be. We are able to choose to be the love and light we are. That is our destiny. Why not now?

How Old is Grandma? Stay with this -- the answer is at the end. It may surprise you. One evening a grandson was talking to his grandmother about current events. The grandson asked his grandmother what she thought about the shootings at schools, the Computer age, and just things in general. The Grandmother replied, “Well, let me think a minute, I was born before: television, penicillin, polio shots frozen foods Xerox contact lenses Frisbees and the pill. There were no: credit cards, laser beams or ball-point pens Man had not invented: pantyhose, air conditioners, dishwashers, clothes dryers, and the clothes were hung out to dry in the fresh air, and space travel was only in Flash Gordon books.

Your Grandfather and I got married first, and then lived together. Every family had a father and a mother. Until I was 25, I called every man older than me, “Sir”. And after I turned 25, I still called policemen and every man with a title, “Sir.” We were before gay-rights, computer-dating, dual careers, daycare centers, and group therapy. Our lives were governed by the The Bible, good judgment, and common sense. We were taught to know the difference between right and wrong and to stand up and take responsibility for our actions. Serving your country was a privilege; living in this country was a bigger privilege...

Dorsey. If you saw anything with ‘Made in Japan’ on it, it was junk The term ‘making out’ referred to how you did on your school exam. Pizza Hut, McDonald’s, and instant coffee were unheard of. We had 5 &10-cent stores where you could actually buy things for 5 and 10 cents. Ice-cream cones, phone calls, rides on a streetcar, and a Pepsi were all a nickel. And if you didn’t want to splurge, you could spend your nickel on enough stamps to mail 1 letter and 2 postcards. You could buy a new Ford Coupe for $600, .. . But who could afford one? Too bad, because gas was 11 cents a gallon. In my day: “grass” was mowed, “coke” was a cold drink, “pot” was something your mother cooked in and “rock music” was your grandmother’s lullaby.

Having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with your cousins.

“Aids” were helpers in the Principal’s office, “chip” meant a piece of wood, hardware was found in a hardware store and software wasn’t even a word. And we were the last generation to actually believe that a lady needed a husband to have a baby.

Draft dodgers were those who closed front doors as the evening breeze started.

No wonder people call us “old and confused” and say there is a generation gap, or from the archives.

Time-sharing meant time the family spent together in the evenings and weekends-not purchasing condominiums.

How old do you think I am? I bet you have this old lady in mind....you are in for a shock!

We thought fast food was eating half a biscuit while running to catch the school bus.

We never heard of FM radios, tape decks, CDs, electric, typewriters, yogurt, or guys wearing earrings. We listened to Big Bands, Jack Benny, and the President’s speeches on our radios. And I don’t ever remember any kid blowing his brains out listening to Tommy Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

Food Of The Month: Cooking with Springtime Barley

sauerkraut, sour dough breads, and using lemons or limes to flavor dishes. This sour flavor lightens up our energy and awakens our taste buds, that have spent the winter enjoying more salty foods.

According to ‘The Five Transformations of Energy’, (the ancient study of the energy of nature and how it relates to us) we are entering the Spring – Tree energy phase. This is the time of year when we become more active, go outside, and reawaken after the more sedentary winter energy phase.

If you have an imbalance in this energy phase it can show itself in your physical body as well as your emotional body. If you have excess or aggravated tree energy, you may have anger issues. It could show up in sharp hand gestures, having a loud voice, or being easily irritated by others. If you feel very creative but are frustrated about your inability to express yourself, you may want to start incorporating these foods in your diet. They will uplift your energy and clean out the stored frustrations (toxins) that

Our bodies go through a natural cleansing at this time of year. It’s easy to see how the organs associated with this phase are the liver, gallbladder, and nervous system, the organs that are associated with detoxing the body. The liver and gallbladder are primarily responsible for purifying the blood. When these organs are working properly, they neutralize poisons and toxins and remove them from the blood. The liver also regulates the release of sugars into the body for fuel. If the liver is overtaxed from the over consumption of dense fatty foods such as dairy, it cannot properly give the body energy. To make sure these important organs are working properly, we can incorporate the signature foods for this energy phase. The signature grains for spring are barley, wheat, rye, and oats. If you have gluten sensitivities you might have an imbalance in this energy phase. You can concentrate on the gluten free foods of this phase; green lentils, split peas, black eyed peas, peanuts, parsley, lettuces, green beans, and green peas. The signature flavor of spring is sour. You can get this flavor in your diet by eating naturally fermented foods,

have accumulated in your body over time. Less common, but still a condition is deficient tree energy, you may experience lack of decision making skills, move slowly, and experience a loss of initiative. Barley is the whole grain known for cleansing the body. It is one of the oldest grains, originating in Southwest Asia around 8500 B.C. Roasted barley was one of the main foods of the gladiators because it gives tremendous strength when eaten. Known for strengthening the blood and intestines, barley contains potassium, iron, calcium, protein, and fiber. When buying barley, look for whole barley. Pearl barley has the bran polished off, which loses the fiber and other nutrients. Barley is excellent for soups, stews, salads, and added to vegetable dishes. It has a chewy, creamy texture, and a nice sweet taste. If you have gluten sensitivities, substitute brown rice for any recipe using barley. Val Wilson

Opening & Clearing the flow of energy to clear Physical, emotional, & Spiritual blocks. Judy Jonna 248-561-8080

ARAPROSDOKIANS... Winston Churchill loved Araprosdokians, they are figures of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is unexpected and frequently humorous, heres a few: 1. Where there’s a will, I want to be in it. 2. The last thing I want to do is hurt you, but it’s still on my list. 3. Since light travels faster than sound, some people appear bright until you hear them speak. 4. Well if I agreed with you, we’d both be wrong. 5. We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. 6. War does not determine who is right - only who is left. 7. Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. 8. They begin the evening news with ‘Good Evening,’ then proceed to tell you why it isn’t. 9. To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research. 10. Buses stop in bus stations. Trains stop in train stations. On my desk is a work station. 11. I thought I wanted a career. Turns out I just wanted paychecks. 12. In filling out an application, where it says, ‘In case of emergency, notify:’ I put ‘DOCTOR.”

13. I didn’t say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you. 14. Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy. 15. Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman. 16. A clear conscience is the sign of a fuzzy memory. 17. ou do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice. 18. Money can’t buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with. 19. There’s a fine line between cuddling and holding someone down so they can’t get away. 20. I used to be indecisive. Now I’m not so sure. 21. You’re never too old to learn something stupid. 22. To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target. 23. Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be. 24. Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine. 25. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. 26. And finally.... I’m supposed to respect my elders, but its getting harder and harder for me to find one now. From Don D

The Path of Forgiveness I have learned firsthand that emotions like resentment and bitterness are most damaging for the person who holds onto them. However, this truth does not necessarily help one to forgive and let go of the pain. Depending on who and/or what needs to be forgiven, and how much pain was experienced, the mind and body will often feel a tremendous amount of resistance to perceiving the experience differently. The mind may have a long list of reasons about why it is justified in holding onto the anger, hurt, etc. This is simply how the limited and fearful ego operates. The good news is that even with a megaton of resistance coming from the body and mind, the heart knows better. No matter what our mind tells us about what happened, our hearts know that all of our life experiences provide us with an opportunity to evolve and remember our divinity. From this knowing, a space for healing and forgiveness is created. So how does one align with this knowing of the heart when there is so much suffering in the mind and body? First, it is especially helpful to utilize the power of prayer. When the ego has a death grip on your painful past, the infinite power and grace of Spirit can help to release it. By praying for help, you are acknowledging that your mind cannot come to forgiveness on its own and this creates space for a miracle. On my own path of forgiveness, this is the prayer that helped me: “Dear God. I have absolutely no idea how I can forgive this person. I cannot even fathom it. However, I know that all things are possible through you. Please help me. I am willing to be open to the possibility that I can forgive but I need help, a lot of it. Thank you in advance for answering this prayer. Amen.” A prayer that acknowledges the limits of the mind and expresses trust in the power of Spirit creates space in our March 2013

hearts for the seeds of forgiveness to be planted. Second, it is important to have patience on the path of forgiveness and to understand that the more pain you experienced the more resistance there will be to forgive. Finding out your partner of 40 years is leaving you for your best friend is going to be harder to forgive than if your partner forgot your birthday. Therefore, for some individuals a great deal of patience is required to allow the healing process to evolve within the flow of divine timing. This is an important step because impatience can create an unreasonable timeline for the healing process, which then creates more suffering. Instead, compassionately accept yourself and the process for what it is, and trust that it will move forward at the perfect pace. Being patient with yourself and this process is an act of gentleness, generosity, and self-love. The more you can let go of any expectations for how long the forgiveness process will take, the more easily it will flow. A great affirmation to cultivate patience on the path of forgiveness is “I surrender to the divine timing of life and release the need to force an outcome. The more I let go of expectations for when healing will happen, the more room I create in my life for miracles.” Another way to transform resistance to forgiveness is to accept and safely express any anger that is present. Most people who feel they have someone or something to forgive will have anger about the experience, which is completely normal. The idea that anger is not spiritual or that it is “bad” is not only false, but can also create a huge roadblock on the path of forgiveness. Ultimately, we must feel and express our anger so that we can move beyond it. The only way out is through judging, shaming, or denying anger which will only block the healing process. By consciously accepting and allowing our anger and by helping this intense

emotion move out of the body, we create space within for healing and forgiveness. There are many ways to safely facilitate the movement of anger or rage out of the body, such as through crying, screaming (the car is a great place for this), shaking, kickboxing, bioenergetics exercises, dancing, chanting, and yoga. Since it is important to make sure that you release the anger safely, it can be helpful to work with a therapist or healer who can offer you additional guidance and support. On my own path of forgiveness, I experienced the tendency of the mind to resist forgiveness to the bitter end, but was also blessed to experience the magnificence of the heart, which only knows love and forgiveness. I learned that prayer, patience, and the acceptance and release of anger could create space within the mind and body for the power of forgiveness to work miracles. I also learned that holding onto past pain is most damaging for the person who holds it, so forgiveness is first and foremost a gift you give yourself.

We Keep Our Issues In Our Tissues I believe that we are a soul with a physical body to express our authentic selves. When we physically express our authentic personalities we thrive and experience vitality. When we physically express attitudes that are not in alignment with our unconditional authentic selves we experience stress. Stress is defined as two opposing forces pulling away from each other, think of concrete or bones and stress fractures. In our case we have an authentic personality and what some call a fear based or ego personality. No matter how clever we try to become our ego based personality cannot change our authentic personality. All the effort we make to not follow our authentic personality results in the stress that we experience in our physical bodies, hence the expression “we keep our issues in our tissues”. At our massage studio in Berkley, we practice Clinical or western medical massage and Holistic massage techniques, i.e. Reiki and Thai massage. After a massage session with us, our clients are treated to tea and encouraged to relax and allow their treatment to integrate and really soak into their bodies, even our clinical clients are encouraged to journal, take Epsom salt baths and expect emotional energies to come to the surface. This is because our physical bodies mirror

our emotional bodies, and when you remove the toxins and release the tense muscles caused by stress the emotional energy naturally comes to the surface in order to release as well. If you are aware of this and are willing to let go of the attitudes that caused the stress in the first place, massage, clinical or holistic, is an amazingly healing process. If you don’t make the connection you will blame the tense muscle in the same place all the time on the physical rigors of life. The ancient Toltec believed that as spiritual beings we have the power to create our personal realities, and those we created through physical expression, especially through our words. Our words are an expression of our subconscious beliefs, or more accurately what we choose or agree to believe. When we agree with someone we share their reality. I believe that people inherit or grow into the attitudes that cause bad knees or bad backs rather than inherit genetic bad backs. I read that Hawaiians once used massage and energy healing to remove every physical, emotional and mental trauma from adolescents in a ceremony to prepare them for the adult journey of their lives, kind of like a clean slate. I’m sure this looked like magic to the first visitors to the islands, but it made me think about how much dysfunctional beliefs I could be carrying from childhood into adulthood, more importantly how were these subconscious beliefs affecting my life now, and how can I release them once and for all. The earliest physicians used massage and diet as their main arsenal against disease and illness, responsible for the health of emperors in ancient Japan, these healers were on call 24hrs a day and ranked very high in courtly life. There earliest writings and medical texts on massage, thousands of years old, all describe beginning treatments with a prayer, they addressed the spiritual body first, then the emotional, then the mental

Body Mind Spirit Guide | March 2013

and then the physical. They knew that understanding the spiritual, emotional and mental was just as important as physical knowledge of the body. We experience emotional energy flowing through our bodies every second, yet the connection between physical health and emotional health is greatly overlooked. We spend billions of dollars on dissecting cells and dosing them with chemicals aiming for results that ancient wisdom tells us can only come from within. We have all heard that chicken soup is a cure for a cold but few make the connection that a good diet is good for a life, this is the same for massage, a massage is great when you want to feel better but regular massage is better if you want to feel great. We are just not used to feeling good most of the time, it’s like we have forgotten that feeling good is our natural state. When you are feeling good you’re thinking well, and if your thoughts are creating your reality then feeling good is the answer to changing your reality, not vice versa. Massage is 100% potent, feel good, all natural, clinical medicine. Ad bio for the “The Balance”
