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

AMMA IS IN DETROIT THANKSGIVING WEEK! Sri Mata Amritanandamayi, affectionately and more often called Amma (Mother) will be arriving in the metropolitan Detroit area during Thanksgiving week and everyone is invited to meet her.

Meeting and spending time with Amma is an invaluable opportunity to experience selfless, unconditional love which flows from her in abundance.

Referred to by the international press as the “Hugging Saint”, Amma has embraced more than 33 million people from around the world with her divine blessing (darshan).

She tirelessly travels the globe to bless and inspire people of all ages and cultures to live a life of compassion and selfless service.

Through the example of her life, Amma demonstrates that true service to humanity is possible when one puts aside one’s own concerns for the good of others. In this spirit of dedication to uplifting others, she has inspired a vast network of charitable activities (embracingtheworld. org) through which people are discovering the beauty and sense of peace that comes from serving others. Amma teaches that the divine exists in everything. Perceiving this underlying unity in all things is not only the essence of spirituality, but also the means to end all suffering.

Amma’s teachings are universal. When asked about her religion she replies that her religion is Love. She does not ask anyone to believe in God or to change their faith but only to inquire into their own real nature, and to believe in themselves.

“Amma is the embodiment of pure love. Her presence heals”. ~ Dr. Deepak Chopra M.D. Several free public programs are available throughout the week. For more information about Amma’s visit to Michigan visit www.amma.org or phone 734-995-0029.

How Do We Heal?

sense. We are part of both the Oneness of spirit as well as the creation that is life; and that Oneness in which we find our true source is right here where we are. The awareness of our true core identity is in the process of awakening within each soul on earth during the next 35 years. This awakening process makes all the difference to our experience.

Whether healing our hearts, our bodies or our world, what is it that makes healing happen? I’d like to explore this question with you from my perspective as a healer for people and the planet.

When hope is awakened, our physical and spiritual immune systems are activated, allowing body and soul to fight off negative influences of all kinds. It heals the common factor in the creation of disease for individuals and society, which is despair. In the body, despair shuts down the immune system and opens a person to illness.

It dissipates the life force and opens a soul to negative energies physically, psychologically, spiritually and socially.

Despair is also the root of selfdestructive and externally destructive behavior of all kinds.

world. I have observed that the factors within our lives which cause us to despair are the same factors that can make us strong. In order to rise to the challenges and develop our personal power and potential, we have to believe in ourselves and/or a benevolent purpose in our life.

Many years of work as a healer have given me a broad perspective on the paths of individual souls and of our

A benevolent purpose is always present, although often deeply hidden; it is who we are in an eternal spiritual

The issue of believing in oneself finds its perfect resolution in this new and emerging self-awareness. Where self-confidence and worth is based on outward success, or on what others think of us, it is a very fragile thing. But increasingly knowing our true nature, we gradually become aware that we are, and have always been, exactly who and what life needed us to be. We are each unique and essential.

My job as a healer is to open people to the remembrance of their own value and the benevolence of life. It requires bringing kindness, love and respect to

the darker places within our souls and our world; allowing those places within to remember the truth that is always present at the core. A tiny opening to that truth initiates healing of hurt, anger, blame and despair. Then forgiveness and love can begin to wash clean the negative states and restore hope and a willingness to live and continue to grow within a body, soul or society.

Many times, the root of our disease is buried beneath the ordinary focus of daily life. It is hidden in our bodies, in our past, in the unpleasant parts of town where we prefer not to go, or in the most secret places of our lives. Often these issues are hidden even from ourselves; but they affect our lives all the same.

When there is a buildup of too many conscious or unconscious elements of despair in the body or in society, we see disease. This is why stress sets us off; it breaks down our outer identity and leaves us vulnerable to the weaknesses hidden in our deeper levels of self. It may also pave the way for change and growth.

When disease occurs, there is an opportunity to release and heal those previously hidden toxic life experiences.

As a healer, I go to the time and place just prior to a despair- causing incident or trauma and prepare the soul of my client (back then) for the circumstances to come. I bring perspective to them from their future, assuring them that they will survive this -- a perspective from spirit that the circumstance will bring opportunities for developing soul muscles that are needed in their evolution. I remind them that their true self is eternal, unbreakable and always safe. I invite wisdom and strength from their future self to help them through the difficulty, and then I stay with them as they enter the challenge, reassuring and strengthening their connection to their own wisdom, truth and power each step of the way.

Where needed, I help the soul release November 2013

any built-up emotions through a simple energy venting, like letting air out of a tire. Working with angels, I invite this energy to be turned into love and returned to our source in spirit.

It is amazing to me how, over time, I have been guided to use these same principles and techniques on the larger levels of family, society, countries and our world. There are so many huge changes that we have to undergo during this period of our evolution. All this change is creating stress, which brings out our weaker elements of self and the darker elements of society. But these are only symptoms of our growth. They open up the hidden and festering places of soul and makes them available for healing. As a healer, this transition provides opportunities to resolve issues long buried and inaccessible. It is both exciting and challenging.

The same is happening for the physical planet, and what appears to be death and destruction is an opportunity for change and growth. Be open to unexpected miracles, and don’t limit your assumptions of our future by the despair of our past. As more and more souls awaken to their Oneness with Source and all beings, life will rally on every level; although it may look pretty nasty at different points along the way. Welcome a spirit of hope to live within your heart and mind despite appearances. The presence of hope within you is an open door for healing to occur for yourself, those you love and for the earth!

So here you are on your Spiritual Path and you come across a set of teachings that suggests that you allow yourself to experience ALL your emotions for the good of your development. Yet, another teaching tells you that only those emotions that feel GOOD are the way to go. Along the way there will be others that fill the spaces in between, and here you are still wondering what to do and how to do it. For as many different people as there are in the world, there are as many thoughts on this topic-- and you’ll have an opportunity to take a look at all of them!

“Tears of the Buddha, Spirituality and Emotions” is a documentary film by director and award winning producer, Joel Lesko. Joel set out to explore how teachings about emotions in the realm of spirituality impact daily life; the result of this journey is his thought provoking and widely acclaimed film.

Lesko himself has followed a spiritual path, using meditation in his daily practices and often finding as many questions as his seeking found answers. Believing that others might have the same queries, Lesko asked several modern Buddhist teachers identical questions about emotions, their necessities, ramifications, origins, etc., and the answers have become this film.

Because the questions are not simply based in metaphysical thought processes, the answers range from practical to spiritual, and provide the seeker with information to make up their own minds. This, after all, is what we tend to do anyway. From these conversations we find that the one thing we have in common, is that we all have emotions and can be assured that emotions are truly mysterious, sacred and deeply personal. Visit www.BrightAgeFilms.com to learn more about obtaining this film.

Tune into www.bodymindspiritradio.com Wed., Nov. 6, 1-2pm EST when Joel Lesko comes to Body Mind Spirit Radio to share his story and address the questions raised about the spiritual views of emotions and our perceived truth

Psychology 101 - THIS IS BRILLIANT! If you start with a cage containing five monkeys and inside the cage, hang a banana on a string from the top and then you place a set of stairs under the banana, before long a monkey will go to the stairs and climb toward the banana.

As soon as he touches the stairs, you spray all the other monkeys with cold water.

After a while another monkey makes an attempt with same result... all the other monkeys are sprayed with cold water.

Pretty soon when another monkey tries to climb the stairs, the other monkeys will try to prevent it.

Now, put the cold water away.

Remove one monkey from the cage and replace it with a new one.

The new monkey sees the banana and attempts to climb the stairs. To his shock, all of the other monkeys beat the crap out of him. After another attempt and attack, he knows that if he tries to climb the stairs he will be assaulted.

Next, remove another of the original five monkeys, replacing it with a new one.

The newcomer goes to the stairs and is attacked. The previous newcomer takes part in the punishment...... with enthusiasm, because he is now part of the “team”.

Then, replace a third original monkey with a new one, followed by the fourth, then the fifth. Every time the newest monkey takes to the stairs, he is attacked.

Now, the monkeys that are beating him up have no idea why they were not permitted to climb the stairs. Neither do they know why they are participating in the beating of the newest monkey.

Finally, having replaced all of the original monkeys, none of the remaining monkeys will have ever been sprayed with cold water. Nevertheless, not one of the monkeys will try to climb the stairway for the banana.

Why, you ask? Because in their minds...that is the way it has always been!

If you feel you are at a crossroads, you are not alone! Many stand, and have stood, at these crossroads. Some have found their way. For many the way is clouded by the fog of past hurts pushed into the subconscious where they forever linger. These unprocessed negative experiences and beliefs can take hold with such fervor they manage to create a physical manifestation in the body manifest as aches, pains, disease, etc.,. These are called energy blocks. They come to us compliments of our life experiences. They come in many shapes and sizes. They bring all manner of ailments. Think about it, we all know someone who gets physically ill, whether it be a migraine or tummy ache when they are under duress. This is a prime example of an energy block taking up residence in the physical body.

Have you ever walked into a room and felt tension in the air? You were feeling the energy field of others. Energy is everywhere. We run on and create energy. Energy flows via specific pathways through our body. Energy fields extend well beyond our physical body. How does this affect you personally? Ask yourself; are there days where I feel unusually tired or run down? This could be the result of blocks that are preventing the energy flow needed to adequately supply your body. Energy fields have been studied and manipulated for hundreds of years by practitioners in

As you probably have experienced, emotions play a vital role in how well our energy flows. All that is negative creates a heaviness in our energy. When emotions are stuffed down and not felt, this heaviness lingers and a block is formed.

But do not fear! There are ways, guides if you will, who can help you find these energetic detours and clear them out once and for all. If it were easy, there would be no blocks. It will take commitment and time, but it is attainable and well worth the effort! It is the rare individual who can find their way through the foggy crossroads without guidance.

In the guidance lies the paradox; it doesn’t come from an insider, yet helps you find your inner guide. No, this facilitator has to be on the outside looking in in order to show you what you yourself cannot see. After all, YOU are the one who has hidden it from yourself! When working with an Energy Facilitator or Guide, you can expect a transformative experience by clearing and releasing stored emotional weight. Experienced in conjunction with coaching on an individual and/or group basis, you can make great strides on your journey through the crossroads of your life path.

Group for Growth was created to help individuals in a group setting focus on finding your direction. This will be a closed group that will meet 8 times. During each meeting, participants will share experiences/findings on the previous week’s topic and meditation. These topics are designed specifically to help each participant clear the fog and move through the crossroads. Evening & daytime groups for men and women of all ages, including teens begin November 2013 at Soul Space.

We are honored to accompany you on your navigation at the crossroads.

Soul Space in Rochester is taking registrations for Soul Awakening, a 6-week tele-course designed to help you reconnect with the true essence of your being. For more info, call 855-200-SOUL (7685) or go to www.TheSoulsSpace.com and click on Classes/Events.

The beauty and power of crystals and other stones have long been recognized from ancient times for their healing and spiritual properties. Long term stress can cause blockages in our physical bodies that can interfere with our daily lives and ultimately lead to disease. Working with someone who does chakra balancing or energy healing can aid in releasing these blockages & create a better energetic flow in our bodies. When using stones, it’s best to cleanse then first and keep them in your auric field for at least 30 days. Also putting a stone on the specific area & practicing deep breathing for 15 min.-1/2 hr. every day is helpful. Here is a short list of stones and different ways they can help our body’s own natural healing process.

DNA= Ametrine.

Lungs=Aquamarine, Emerald, Garnet, Morganite, Peridot & Petalite.

Balance the Thyroid= Citrine, Rhodocrosite & Epidote.

Balancing the Chakras great stones to use include; Kyanite, Apatite, bi-color Calcite,Tigers Eye & Tourmaline. Aiding one in Weight loss, stones which are helpful are; Amethyst, Green Tourmaline, Apatite & Seraphinite.

Our bodies are so programmable, similar to a computer. And all you need to do is tell it what you want & the body will follow with some practice. Also working with breath work can help move energy, heal & help relieve pain.

Here are some affirmations you can work with to help your bodies natural healing process. When you use them with your breath make sure you inhale when you say inhale & exhale when you say exhale. This helps breathe the disease or pain out of your body. Repeat them as often as possible. The more you tell your body what you want - you’ll be canceling out negative programming. Making your own affirmations can be beneficial also.

“I AM perfect divine radiant health.” “ Breathing in pleasure. Breathing out pain.”

“I am happy & grateful for my perfect healthy (add body part here).”

“Breathing in calm & peace. Breathing out stress.” Happy healing!

Singing HU is a great way to: • Tune in to the spiritual currents • Initiate profound spiritual experiences • Create a foundation for spiritual growth • Reduce Stress and Anxiety • Eliminate Insomnia and Nightmares • Receive Divine Guidance

Be Thankful for Your Healthy Choices Life is a journey, not a destination.

Learning to eat beneficial foods for one’s health is also a journey. Every person makes choices every day regarding nutrition. From babies who willingly open their mouths to receive food (or spit it out) to the elderly who sometimes do the same, deciding what they will consume is their choice. In the same way, health is either created or sabotaged by our choices.

Most people in this country are fortunate in that there are lots of choices when it comes to food. This is why I feel strongly about helping my patients realize the difference their choices make. By encouraging them to obtain most of their food from local, environmentally conscientious farmers, I feel that everyone wins.

Local food is not only fresher but has a smaller footprint than most food from large chain grocery stores. This has a positive impact on the environment as well as on one’s health, a win-win situation!

I’m often asked why anyone who’s already eating a wholesome variety of food obtained from local farmers, co-ops, or community supported agriculture farms (CSA’s) may still have nutritional deficiencies. One reason is the fact that all food is dependent upon the soil, and soil is the basis of life of this planet.

Before the age of agriculture, our hunter-gather ancestors ate the meat of animals they hunted along with all of the other edible components of the animals that grazed on the grasses growing in the rich, fertile soil. They also picked and ate berries and other vegetation that grew on the same fertile soil.

Modern-day soil is not at all the same as it was the days of our ancestors, and the corruption of the soil from commercial, toxic farming practices has affected the entire food chain.

Another choice made by smart, healthminded individuals is the addition of high quality whole food supplements.

Since most health-minded individuals usually go out of their way to obtain the best food possible, rounding out dietary needs with supplements is the easiest way to ensure that all bases are covered.

While our ancestors were able to obtain superior nutrition by living off the land, these days it’s much more difficult to get adequate nutrition this way. Soil that is deficient in minerals, lacking in beneficial microbes and other nutrients cannot possibly support healthy nutritious plants, vegetables or livestock.

Fortunately, the very highest quality organic supplements have been consistently available to holistic health practitioners to address the needs of nutritionally deficient patients. In my office, I utilize a sophisticated instrument called the ZYTO which uses Bio-communication technology to help pinpoint nutritional deficiencies and determine the most beneficial supplements for each individual.

Although it’s hard to imagine people starving in this country, I see many cases in which illness is most likely the result of a form of starvation. A quote from Empty Harvest written by Dr. Bernard Jensen and Mark Anderson describes this scenario quite well, “Food crops grown on depleted soil produce malnourished bodies, and disease preys on malnourished bodies.”

16

Despite the high consumption of

calories, people in today’s society aren’t getting proper nourishment from food. Instead of finding food that’s healthy, they find food that’s convenient. The problem is that pre-packaged food, fast food, and restaurant food can never meet our real nutritional needs. Supplementation can jump-start poor nutrition but it’s essential to do it properly.

Proper supplementation is based on symptom based need assessment as well as other tests used in clinical settings. This is followed by proper dosing of the highest quality supplements available to ensure the greatest success. While synthetic vitamins and minerals may initially make a person feel better, in the long run they will create more problems.

Synthetic vitamins and minerals are basically non-organic chemicals which are not recognized by the body as food. When unrecognizable substances are taken into the body, it must steal nutrients from other stores in the body to make these substances either usable or merely safe. More information may be found on this subject in a book I keep in my office, Going Back to the Basics of Human Health: Avoiding the Fads, the Trends, and the Bold Faced Lies by Mary Frost, M.A. This small comprehensive book is designed to help consumers sift through propaganda about vitamins, nutrition, food labels, and health issues. You’re also invited to my workshop on November 14th to learn how to interpret food labels in order to help yourself and your family become healthier.

If you’re wondering whether or not you could benefit from whole food supplements, ask yourself if you are as healthy as you’d like to be. If you want enough resilience and reserve to handle any stress that comes your way while avoiding disease, proper supplementation may be just your ticket.

Other kinds of supplements are available to support digestion. When the body doesn’t produce the proper stomach acid needed for digestion, it’s often mistaken for too much acid.

Instead of determining and treating the cause, many common medications are given to stop the digestive organs from working properly. Food stays in the system and rots. Rotting food destroys the stomach lining, leading to ulcers and other problems. Often disabling other organ systems, rotting food is frequently the cause of a congested liver which may lead to headaches, varicose veins, and other problems.

Digestive problems can also occur when people do not consume enough of the proper foods to keep their intestinal tracts happy. Since 60% of immune system function is made up of the probiotics in the gut, consuming fermented foods that promote this healthy bacteria is very important.

A probiotic supplement is another

Suffering is Optional – 4 Steps to Turn Suffering Into Joy Many people suffer and do not even realize it. They don’t realize it because they are numb to the world and their life circumstances. They think that is the way life is supposed to be. They don’t realize there is a greater potential for more joy and happiness in their life.

Some say suffering is the path to god. Many who are influenced by eastern religions feel suffering is justified as it is their karma. But suffering is unwise, uncomfortable and hazardous to your health. Suffering besides the unhappiness it levies on your spirit brings the body out of balance and will lead to illness and disease.

But suffering is optional. Only a master can consciously and effectively alter the events in their life. Since most of us are not at that level, bad things happen to us and the only thing we can control is how we think and feel about the event.

And how we think about the event after the fact determines our state of being. What if suffering has little to do with events but more to do with your reaction to the events?

What happens just happens. What is, just is. How you feel about it … now that’s another matter. Thoughts about events can live on years after the event happened. The victim is literally imprisoned by their thoughts of the past.

Through free will and conscious choice, you can choose how to experience life and minimize your suffering. Choice is the difference between joy and suffering. Here is a 4 step process to minimize the suffering in your life.

to clear your field. Try Reiki, Psychotherapy, Pranic Healing, Sweat Lodges, Access BARS, Esoteric Healing, Crystal Healing, Somato Emotional Release, Shamanic Journeying and, of course, my favorite Conscious Breathing Breathwork.

This is a short list of what I have experienced. There are many more. Clear your field of negativity.

Recognize there is another possibility. Nothing changes unless you believe it is possible to change. Opening to possibility opens space for recreating life anew. I have done it, Pat has done it, many others have done it and so can you.

Believe in a new possibility.

Choose to view the event differently. Sounds ridiculous but this is where the rubber meets the road. The best way to illustrate this is through example. Recently a person made some unfavorable and untrue comments regarding an experience they had at the Center. The first response was to be defensive and justify why this person was wrong.

Feelings of anger, betrayal, frustration and guilt began to surface. These feelings were furthered by the fact that this person made these comments anonymously and on the web making it impossible to dialogue and discuss the issue. At this point every thought about the subject created feelings of ill will and they fed on each other. The more we thought about it, the worse it got. Pat asked, “How do I let go of this?”

Clear negativity from you field and eliminate negative events.

This may seem like the ideal solution but until you get really clear in your intent and stop resisting life and allowing in the good, this is harder than it seems. Hard as it is to imagine, all events in our life are created by us. Some are produced willfully and consciously while many are drawn to us unconsciously through the law of attraction. Other events are planetary in nature and we contribute to these through our contribution to the collective consciousness. So the work is to clear our field of negative and limiting beliefs so you can allow in more good. This will consistently, effortlessly, automatically and permanently reduce the frequency and severity of negative events in your life unless you choose to recreate them. Use whatever tools you are comfortable with

Thirty minutes after this exercise we had forgotten about the issue. I asked Pat to revisit the issue and sure enough there was significantly less emotion attached to it. The issue was a non-issue. Each moment we are recreating ourselves.

18

The solution was simple. Stop thinking those thoughts.

Just place your mind on something else and this is what we did. Look at the trees, admire the colors, give gratitude for the meal you just had, or think of a past experience that was happy. There are many ways to change what you are thinking of. Soon your mind will be off in another direction.

As you redirect your mind you are also redirecting your energy. Once your energy is redirected you will cease attracting more of the same and begin attracting something new.

Your choice is to decide how you wish to be in each moment. Choose different thoughts.

The power of three. This is not really a separate step but an acknowledgement that the above three steps, the Power of Three, are synergistic. Redirecting the mind can be hard due to the emotional attachment of the ego to the event.

When you open to a new way of being in Step 1 and lessen the negativity in your field through Step 2, Step 3, choosing a new thought, is infinitely easier. That is why we could easily and quickly shift to a different thought.

Do your work on Step 2 to make Step 3 easier. These steps work together in an unbeatable way to change the way you experience life and put an end to suffering. Remember the Power of Three.

Suffering is not bad. It just is.

Suffering tells you that there is something about the way you are choosing to view the world that is not in alignment with higher truth. Be aware of the suffering in your life and know it is a choice. By using the Power of Three, suffering can be left behind leaving you with joy. And that’s what it’s all about … living a joyful life. May the JOY be with you!

The Chair A woman’s daughter had asked the local minister to come and pray with her mother. When the minister arrived, he found the woman lying in bed with her head propped up on two pillows. An empty chair sat beside her bed.

The minister assumed that the woman had been informed of his visit. ‘I guess you were expecting me, he said.’ No, who are you?’ said the mother. The minister told her his name and then remarked, ‘I saw the empty chair and I figured you knew I was going to show up. ’ ‘Oh yeah, the chair,’ said the bedridden woman. ‘Would you mind closing the door?’

Puzzled, the minister shut the door. ‘I have never told anyone this, not even my daughter,’ said the woman. ‘But all of my life I have never known how to pray. At church I used to hear the pastor talk about prayer, but it went right over my head.’ I abandoned any attempt at prayer,’ the woman continued, ‘until one day four years ago; my best friend said to me, ‘Betty, prayer is just a simple matter of having a conversation with Jesus. Here is what I suggest. Sit down in a chair; place an empty chair in front of you, and in faith see Jesus on the chair. It’s not spooky because he promised, ‘I will be with you always’.

Then just speak to him in the same way you’re doing with me right now. So, I tried it and I’ve liked it so much that I do it a couple of hours every day. I’m careful though. If my daughter saw me talking to an empty chair, she’d either have a nervous breakdown or send me off to the funny farm.’ The minister was deeply moved by the story and encouraged the woman to continue on the journey. Then he prayed with her, anointed her with oil, and returned to the church.

Two nights later the daughter called to tell the minister that her mother had died that afternoon. ‘Did she die in peace?’ he asked. ‘Yes, when I left the house about two o’clock, she called me over to her bedside, told me she loved me and kissed me on the cheek. When I got back from the store an hour later, I found her. But there was something strange about her death. Apparently, just before Mother died, she leaned over and rested her head on the chair beside the bed. What do you make of that?’ The minister wiped a tear from his eye and said, ‘I wish we could all go like that.’

Buddha was asked, “What have you gained from meditation?” He replied, “Nothing!” “However, let me tell you what I lost: Anger, Anxiety, Depression, Insecurity, Fear of Old Age and Death.”

Five People Who Thought…

It Couldn’t Be Done…

She wouldn’t tell me the doctor see was seeing. One day I was at her house and I found an article about Dr. Reggish and these patients that were losing all this weight. It had Dr Reggish’s phone number circled.

Here’s what they had to say: I heard about Dr. Reggish from my uncle in Farmington MI. He is disabled and has been in pain for many years until he found Dr Reggish. My uncle’s pain was throughout his body and most doctors called it Fibromyalgia. No one was able to help him except to give him heavy pain pills. I live in Chicago and my Uncle told me that in one visit Dr Reggish was able to make him pain free. I asked “What did he do to you?”. All he said was I have to make an appointment with Dr. Reggish, he’s a Holistic doctor. Even thou I live in Chicago, I made the appointment. Dr. Reggish ran some nutritional tests on me and told me what foods to avoid and what foods to eat. He gave me some Herbs to take and I followed his protocol. In one week I lost 9 ½ pounds. I couldn’t believe it because I wasn’t on a diet. I had more energy and didn’t have any sugar cravings. I have tried many diets in the last year and I couldn’t lose even 2 pounds. In one week, I lost 9 ½ pounds doing Doc’s program by following it exactly. I never thought this could happen. Also my injured knee is feeling better and my skin looks great.

Thanks Dr Reggish, Joe M., Chicago I read about Dr Reggish and thought maybe he could help me lose weight. I’m 48 yrs old and was 52 lbs overweight when I walked into his office. He tested me for $45 and told me what foods I had sensitivities to. He told me what to do and after one week I lost 17 lbs and the 2nd week I lost another 6 lbs. This is truly a miracle. I’m starting my 3rd week now and can’t wait to get back in his office. Dr. Reggish, thank you for all the time you took with me. You are truly a wonderful caring person. Also, I almost forgot, my hot flashes are gone. You’ve truly changed my life.

Betty Jean, Midland My girlfriend has been losing a lot of weight in the last month and it has been driving me crazy especially after seeing how much she eats. I’ve been so jealous because no girl wants to see their friend lose weight while you’re not.

20

I thought this is where she’s going, so I called and made an appointment. Dr Reggish’s testing was only $45 and he spent over an hour with me. I’ve been doing his program now for only two weeks and I’ve lost 14 lbs. My friend has lost 9 lbs more then me, but it doesn’t matter because I’m losing weight now and I can see my friend is going crazy.

God Bless you Dr Reggish.

Lorretta, Sterling Hgts.

I’ve been doing Dr Reggish’s Nutritional program now for 2 months and I have lost 48 lbs and feeling great. I’m 58 yrs old, single and having so much fun. I owe all of this to my loving doctor, Dr Reggish. Without you Doc, this wouldn’t be possible. Also thank you Betty for referring me. I love you so much.

Things You Need To Know, Eat More and Lose Weight…

People believe that losing weight is simply a matter of eating fewer calories than you burn. This is the furthest thing from the truth. Calories in doesn’t always equal calories out.

It’s not just about eating fewer calories, rather, it’s about your metabolism.

Fire it up and you’ll burn your food like a bon fire, even if you’re eating 6,000 calories a day! You’ve seen skinny people who eat so much and never gain weight. Then there’s those who hardly eat at all and gain lots of weight and fat. These are the people with a slow metabolism.

So how does this happen? Eating a low calorie diet will definitely slow down your metabolism. Then, if you throw in junk food, processed sugar, and all those other foods that you know you probably shouldn’t eat, into a body with a slow metabolism, you accumulate fat and nothing seems to burn.

But you don’t want excess fat. You want lean muscle. You want energy, healthy hormones, balanced cholesterol, excellent blood sugar levels, and stunning hair, skin, and nails.

You want to radiate health and enjoy the process of getting there. You want to look and feel amazing.

No problem! You can fix your metabolism and get it burning like a bonfire so that the foods you eat burn fast for energy and nothing is stored as fat. Build it into a roaring fire, and you’ll be able to eat food like a “normal” person - the way you see healthy-looking people eating. The way you thought you might never eat again.

The problem with most people is that if you are overweight and have spent a lifetime dieting to get it under control, the very thing you thought would help has actually been hurting you. Long-term dieting slows your metabolism, your inner fire, turning it slowly, year by year, into a dead fire that’s barely burning. The less you eat, the more your metabolism cools down, and the less you will be able to eat tomorrow.

That’s the reason some people can’t lose weight even though they don’t eat very much. Their metabolic flame has died out and they can’t get it lit again. The ‘garbage’ has piled up, and the whole process has become dysfunctional.

It needs a jump start! It needs to be reignited. Explaining the process would be lengthy, however, I have seen people who never count calories and are eating 2 lbs. of beef some days, 3-6 cups of fruit other days, with lots of grains and vegetables. In fact, there’s an unlimited amount of veggies they can eat. Many are losing weight, and the more weight

November 2013

they have to lose, the more food they have to eat.

Part of the solution is eating foods that are organic. Conventional broccoli has 33 pesticide residues! 5 are carcinogens, 6 are neurotoxins, and 15 disrupt hormones. It’s time to stop eating foods with all these chemicals. I used to mix chemicals in the chemistry lab and created all sorts of reactions, sometimes explosions! These same chemicals are in our processed foods, are being sprayed on our vegetables and are killing the micro-organisms in the ground. It’s these micro-organisms that are responsible for making the vitamins in our vegetables.

Get rid of them and we don’t get many vitamins in the food-and we don’t feel satisfied eating. Quite often, we then turn to sugar or caffeine, two of the worst known ‘drugs’ for energy.

Did you know that the average person who doesn’t eat organic is taking into their bodies on the average of 300 different chemicals a day! That adds up over a lifetime, and unfortunately, is why so many of the elderly are taking so many medications.

Another tip is eating at least 5-6 times a day (or more) to speed up your metabolism. Things happen to your metabolism if you go without eating, starving yourself or skipping meals for a long period of time. Your metabolism slows down and you then store food as fat.

I hope this information helps you make good dietary changes and starts you on a healthy weight loss journey. Let’s all get healthier and live a vibrant, long life!

Changing the Wiring of Your Brain

in the traumatic experience. The traumatized individual is easily triggered to display mal-adaptive behaviors as an adult.

Bert Hellinger recently commented that Family Constellations have powerful healing effects on both the spiritual as well as the physical levels. Hellinger claims that whatever happens on the level of the physical, is mirrored in the body in a positive way. He points out that Family Constellations work permeates the individual at all levels and heals both physically and spiritually.

Fascinatingly enough, since Hellinger’s concentration is mostly spiritual these days, recent research demonstrates that a life-enriching experience or new learning, changes the wiring in the brain—making the brain better! The uniqueness of a Systemic Family Constellation is that it can stimulate the creation of new neural pathways in the brain, and in the process of rewiring, old traumas can be revisited and reframed. The reframing or re-remembering—as Hellinger likes to say—can bring resolution and healing of the old pain and suffering that interferes with the individual’s ability to live a happy and productive life.

Franz Ruppert, who is a Constellations Trauma Specialist, believes that trauma causes the psyche to split into three parts—the Trauma Self, the Survival Self, and the Healthy Self.

The original trauma often occurs with the primary relationship for everyone—that of the relationship with mother. The split can occur at the moment of birth, or sometimes even during the early part of gestation. Or, sometimes the trauma results from being separated from mother shortly after birth. Such early traumas can have a lasting impact on the individual’s developing personality, as well as the path he or she will take in life. Early trauma determines whether or not that individual will even have a successful life.

The healthy part exhibits open-mindedness, is capable of regulating feelings, exhibits compassion and empathy, and is able to bond in a healthy way. The healthy part has a good memory and is able to accept responsibility, and self-reflection.

It’s realistic, optimistic and finally, has the ability for selfreflection.

The traumatized part buries all memories of the trauma, and individuals who have been traumatized remain the same age they were when the first trauma occurred, and remain engaged November 2013

Much like the traumatized part, the survival part buries all memories of the trauma so that the trauma is buried deep and actively guards the split. The survival part can be controlling, avoiding, compensating and adept at producing illusions. It is a mirror image of the Traumatized Part.

Although it was accepted since the early days of Family Constellations that a constellation could help heal trauma, the exact mechanism was not understood until very recently. The only way anyone could “prove” that healing took place was through the participant’s self-report.

Recent research shows that when the individual experiences a unique experience, or some kind of intense new learning occurs, new pathways are created in the brain which can be seen with brain imaging techniques now available. A constellation is such a unique experience that it triggers what is known as neurogenesis, or the creation of new neural pathways in the brain, during which the trauma is revisited and “re-membering” or reframing takes place and new information is added to the original trauma so that the Healthy Self becomes more available to the individual.

The early trauma that causes the psyche to split can result from problems during delivery, or with events immediately following birth. More recently, it is understood that some traumas actually occur during the first trimester of gestation.

Such early traumas are the result of what Hellinger calls the “interrupted reaching out”—a loss of connection with mother, or an incomplete attachment, resulting in the inability of the individual to develop a good relationship while still in the womb.

Giving Thanks

Every act of kindness helps another. You never know whose life you will change or save, by taking a small action that helps another.

At this time of year we give thanks for family, friends, good food, and what we have. Relationships, by far, are the most important thing we are thankful for, compared to our possessions. What makes relationships so special is how they help those involved in the relationship to grow as people.

Life revolves around this concept of help. Everything we do effects someone or something in one way or another. Just as the sun helps create life by warming the planet, and growing vegetation to eat and plants to use as herbs to improve health, it helps in the same way that we help each other.

The desire to help others is instinctive, yet there are different types of help.

A job helps both the worker and the employer. A smile helps brighten someone else’s day. A compliment instills confidence and strength in the receiver. An act of kindness benefits Change your health Change your life Trying to Do it All? Living With Pain?

Rock of the Month: Shungite Imagine working with an energy over 2 billion years old to help you transform stubborn energies that have been difficult to remove from your life! The coal-like mineral called, “Shungite” is found in the ancient, deepest layers of the earth’s crust. It is said to be more than 2 billion years old and is found in only one location on earth in the Shunga region of Karelia, northwest of Russia.

Shungite has unique healing powers. It is a stone of transformation and rejuvenation. It purifies, normalizes, protects, induces recovery and promotes growth in living organisms. For healing, it is effective for heart, rejuvenation of skin and hair, allergies, arthritis and even has antibacterial properties. It can also aid in balancing emotions as it absorbs negative energies. Shungite is a natural antioxidant that helps increase immunity. It is also effective for insomnia.

It is touted as THE stone to absorb harmful radiation from electric magnetic fields (EMF). This is exciting since we are bombarded more and more by EMF from cell phones, computers, readers, digital clocks, microwave ovens, television, etc. As evidence of its effectiveness, Shungite is used by the military for EMF protection.

In addition to its protective properties from EMF, Shungite is also said to effectively purify water. Some cities use it to help purify the water in their reservoirs. Often called the “Stone of Life”, it can be placed in a pitcher of water. It will charge the water with cleansing energies which can be used to energize and purify the home or office.

If used for healing and protection from negativity and EMF’s, Shungite can become filled with dirty energy so it must be cleaned regularly. We will discuss clearing techniques next month. If you only have one stone in your collection, perhaps it should be “THE ONE!” Pat Krajovic Pat Krajovic, Co-founder and Director of BodyWorks Healing Center and Global Breath Institute is a nationally certified massage therapist with advanced training in alternative healing. She’s taught breathwork in Europe and U.S. and was voted “Best of the Best” in Allure Magazine. Contact here at: 734-416-5200 November 2013

Operation Prayer Power – Science, Spirituality and Global Healing – Part 3

world – the energy of prayer: spiritual energy. Spiritual energy can be equated to a stream of healing water; when harnessed it intensifies into a powerful river of love that can quench the raging fires of suffering.

We’re pleased to continue this series on the global healing mission, Operation Prayer Power which is on the cutting edge of science and spirituality. It is a fantastic example of the joining together of prayer, the power of mantra, spirituality and technology and was invented by Yoga Master, the late Dr. George King, Founder of The Aetherius Society. This is held each week at only five locations in the world, including Royal Oak, Michigan.

Dr. King’s vision with Operation Prayer Power was to have a storehouse of uplifting Spiritual energy that could be collected and stored in special batteries, then released through what are termed ‘Spiritual Energy Radiators’ at times of crisis.

The Fuel In Operation Prayer Power, the fuel for global healing to take place is Spiritual energy – the energy of Love. This healing ‘fuel’ is generated and radiated through groups of people who join in chanting the sacred sound system of mantra while another highly trained group join in selfless dynamic prayer. This healing fuel of spiritual energy is then concentrated using technology where it becomes one of the most potent healing forces.

People of every religion and belief system use prayer. When a disaster such as an earthquake or flood strikes, caring people throughout the world send heartfelt prayers to those in need for healing and relief. Dr. King knew, however, as a scientist as well as an expert in the spiritual sciences, that if the energy of prayer could be harnessed, the results would be far more powerful.

Dr. King also knew that prayer – like any other energy – can be collected, stored and concentrated. He realized he could do this by designing and building unique and specific radionic equipment. This was done by himself and a small team of initiates over forty years ago, and this equipment became the inner heart of Operation Prayer Power. This fantastic equipment is able to intensify – and later radiate out to the

This spiritual energy released and directed by people through their heartfelt prayers, is then collected into the batteries and finally radiated in a huge blanketing sea of Love, in a fraction of the time it took to charge the batteries.

This resulting sea of spiritual energy could then be directed to the area in need. Once Dr. King had visualized the possibility of this miracle mission in the living ethers, he then set about the hard work and effort required to bring his vision into manifestation. It did not take him long to devise what he termed a ‘New Yoga for a New Age’.

Operation Prayer Power is open to everyone and for those who wish to participate, we hold regular classes in which we explain Operation Prayer Power, and initiate you into the sacred mantras that are used. After taking the introductory class, you will then be able to join in this fantastic global healing mission.

Herb of the Month Wild Ginger (Asarum Canadense)

The Professor and the Jar A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.

When the class began, wordlessly he picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.

He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was. So the professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full.

They agreed it was.

Common names: Canada wild ginger, Indian ginger, Canada snakeroot, false coltsfoot, black snakeroot, colic root.

Description: A small wildflower native to the northern United States and Canada. Wild ginger forms a patchyto-dense ground cover of less than a foot in height, with a pair of heartshaped leaves for each stem, and a purple or reddish-brown flower.

Part used: roots.

Common use: While it gets one of its many names as a snakebite treatment, the most common use of wild ginger is for treating colds, intestinal cramping, nausea and fever. Most of its uses are handed down from Native Americans, who also employed it as a contraceptive. In more modern times, it has been found to contain a tumor-fighting compound, aristolochic acid. Make an infusion by steeping a small handful of dried roots in a pint of boiled water for 20 minutes.

Comments: Wild ginger is similar in taste and smell to its namesake, the true ginger, but is unrelated.

By Daniel Ray 28

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full. The students responded with a unanimous “yes”.

The professor then produced two cans of beer from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.

The students laughed The professor waited for the laughter to subside…

“Now”, said the professor, “I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life.

The golf balls are the important things… Your family, your children, your health, your friends, your favorite passions. Things that if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full.”

“The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your home, your car.”

“The sand is everything else… The small stuff.” If you put the sand into the jar first, there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are critical to your happiness.

Play with your children. Take time to get medical checkups. Take your partner to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house or fix the disposal.

Take care of the golf balls first, the things that really matter. Set your priorities, the rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the coffee represented.

The Professor smiled. “I’m glad you asked. It just goes to show you that no matter how full your life may seem, there’s always room for a couple of cups of coffee with a friend.”

Family Time, Holy Time!

Being with your family can be a great source of joy or possibly, dread. You can pick your friends but your family is given to you by Divine choice. You love your family, yet may find it hard to be with them peacefully. Never fear, you are about to have a holy experience with them!

The Course in Miracles gives the perspective that each encounter we have is a “holy encounter”, the opportunity to grow in acceptance, self-love and holiness. As you are an aspect of divinity and love, so are your family members. We are, after all, all connected at our core.

This being said, each being is a reflection of you! Each encounter is holy as it is the opportunity to see how you create your world. If someone pushes your buttons, it’s an opportunity to do some inner investigation and gain insight on how to recreate your world into something more pleasing. For when there is any discord within you, there is some healing that can be done.

Most of us feel young again when we are with our parents and fall into the same old roles that we’ve always played. The energy’s the same, the personalities become the same, the script is replayed and ends up the same.

This year, you can choose differently! You can start by meditating and breathing, centering yourself before you join them. By centering, you remember who YOU are, and can more easily hold on to your energy and identity as an adult.

Feel anxiety? Breathe and repeat the centering.

You can choose to change a part of the script you identify with that usually occurs with your family before gathering.

For example, if someone asks you when you’re going to get

married, you can center by taking a breath, noticing how you feel, what thoughts go through your mind, and then speak your “go to” statement that you’ve practiced, feeling love in your heart. You could then choose to respond with, “Good question. When we feel the time is right.” Later you can take those golden feelings and thoughts and work them through, thereby growing towards self-actualization and increasing your love, your connection with the Creator.

If someone says/does something that “pushes your buttons,” that is you letting you know what you can work on next.

For instance, iif someone always expects only you to help clean up and assumes you will, notice how old you feel, what the emotions are, and the thoughts that give rise to those emotions so you can later do some internal investigation. Part of this inner investigation would possibly include looking at how you may be making assumptions in a different way, or where you have expectations.

In the end, you have the power and choice as to how you live and experience your life. Next month we can explore more ways to grow, through how we experience our family dynamics. In the meantime, know that you are on the path to healing and becoming your best actualized self. Have a great Thanksgiving!

Sweet Potato Pie with Walnut Crust Filling:

5 cups sweet potato (peeled and cut up) 1/4 cup amasake 1/4 cup brown rice syrup 1/4 cup maple syrup 1/3 cup arrow root

Ahhh, holiday time -- a time for festive decorations, family get-togethers, and of course, great desserts! We crave the sweet taste and smell of our favorite holiday dessert -- just because we are eating healthier, doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy holiday sweets!

1/2 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. cloves 1/4 tsp. nutmeg 1/4 tsp. allspice 1/4 tsp. sea salt Crust: 2 T. olive oil 1/4 cup + 2 T. water 1.4 cup walnut meal 1 1/2 cups oat flour pinch sea salt To make crust, mix oil, water, walnuts, and sea salt together.

Mix in the flour. You should get a stiff dough. Form dough into a flat, round disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes before rolling out.

To make filling, Bring a pot of water to a boil. Put sweet potatoes in water, make sure there is enough water to cover them. Keep the water boiling, and boil them for approx. 10 minutes, until fork tender. Drain the sweet potatoes and put in a food processor along with the rest of the filling ingredients.

Puree until smooth.

To roll crust out, place the dough between two pieces of plastic wrap. Roll out until it is big enough to fit the pie shell.

Place the crust into an oiled pie shell. Fill the crust with the filling. Bake at 350 degrees for an hour. Let cool completely before cutting and serving.

Food Of The Month Sweet Potato

Sweet potato has a natural sweetness that helps create a mouth watering dessert. Most people don’t know this, but the white potato, the sweet potato, and the yam are three completely different plants, not related. White potatoes are nightshade vegetables and not recommended for people with arthritis and fibromayalgia. Yams are native to Africa and are white, ivory, cream, pink, or purple. Sweet potatoes are yellow, reddish, or orange. Sweet potatoes are rich in antioxidants, calcium, vitamins A and C. Known for feeding and nurturing the spleen, pancreas and stomach, they also help quench thirst and lubricate dry conditions.

The trickiest part of making holiday pies is the crust. To make a good crust it should be flaky, light, and moist. For those who are gluten sensitive, I have chosen to use oat flour. Another flour that works well is spelt. Spelt is an ancient form of wheat.

It does contain gluten, but has not been tampered with, like the wheat berry. Another great tip is to use ground nuts in your crust. It adds a layer of moistness without adding more liquid fat.

To ensure that you can roll out your crust, it must be cold.

Attempting to roll out a warm crust is like putting peanut butter on your hands and trying to not have it stick! When the crust dough is cold, it won’t stick to the plastic wrap and will hold together when you pick it up and put it in the pie shell.

An ingredient you may not be familiar with is the amasake, a natural sweetener that won’t spike blood sugar levels. It’s made from fermented brown rice and is sold in the frozen section of health food stores. It is thick like a shake, good right out of the container, and adds another layer of creamy sweetness to the pie.

Enjoy and Happy Holiday!

Valerie Wilson

Soul Satisfaction and the Healing of Relationships

Pulsation is the natural rhythm of life. The tides pulse, the moon pulses and our cells pulse. A baby pulses out longing for the heartbeat of the mother, a lover pulses out to meet a beloved.

Living organisms communicate through this pulsation. Our soul essence sphere pulses out, allowing us to “meet” others, to truly sense, see and know their essence – satisfying a deeply

rooted longing to be met, creating healing for ourselves and others, which forms the energetic basis of deeply fulfilling relationships.

Embodied Practice first re-establishes our soul essence energy and our pulse connection within a small sphere in the physical center of our head. The physical center of our head is located right above the third ventricle, one of the main waterbeds of the brain and a part of the hypothalamus pituitary axes. We activate the healing pulsation of the soul essence sphere in an Embodied Practice class or healing session. Having this soul essence sphere pulsing and communicating in the center of our heads accelerates our ability to sense and see the energy behind people and relationships. This is the mechanism that allows mothers to know when their out-of-state children are in trouble.

Some things can never be cognitively understood; they must be experienced in the body. Healing relationships and creating soul satisfaction through our soul essence pulsation are most definitely among them. To help the you bridge this gap, here are afew personal experiences with the power of soul

Healing Energy, LLC

Our Education System

“Embodied Practice awakens us to our pulse relationship with the very essence of our soul. Awakening, we know our longing for the rhythm of the tides, the cycles of the moon or the longing to feel the heartbeat of our lover. Embodied Practice brings a distinct knowing of the essence of our soul, as organized photon light, providing the mechanism for the organized light to return to pulse relationship with the soul.” ~Kiera D. Laike, IRW, creator of Embodied Practice

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Education is not the learning of facts, but the training of the mind to think.

- Albert Einstein

Growing Old I’ve seen better days, but I’ve also seen worse. Do not regret growing older, it is a privilege denied to many.

essence pulse.

For example, after a year on a committee that had never felt warm or welcoming to me, I began, early one morning, working with pulsing out, from my soul essence to “meet” each group member —essentially greeting and acknowledging the essence of each individual. Later that day, upon entering the meeting room, warm welcomes awaited me – eyes lit up as they saw me enter, conversations paused as people turned to say “hello” – a deeply satisfying moment which emerged from my soul essence pulsation.

Eight years ago, in my first class with Kiera Laike, IRW, I learned to call back the container, or soul essence sphere, for the photon light particles of my soul essence. This container connected me to one of the most basic of all healing rhythms – pulsation. It opened communication with my essence, the healing information from Earth’s mantle, the electromagnetic fields and ultimately with what scientists call the Dark Matter of the Universe. I learned to “talk” to the soul essence of my students, clients, family and friends.

As their essence is greeted and met by mine, a pulsating communication opens. Healing emerges out of these communications that would not otherwise have been possible, now move me daily in a pulse relationship that is beyond words.

“Sybil, take the apartments over in Los Angeles Plaza.”

“Sam, I want you to take the offices over in City Center.”

“Sarah, my dear wife, please take all the residential buildings downtown.”

The nurse is just blown away by all this, and as Morris slips away, she says, “Mrs. Schwartz, your husband must have been such a hard working man to have accumulated all this property”.

Sarah replies, “Property? ... That’s his paper route!”

American Nuns Take a Stand Crisis proceeds transformation.

This is an idea that perhaps some of us can relate to, seeing how in our own lives we have experienced a personal crisis before a having a breakthrough and transformation. This is an idea that also speaks to a crisis and transformation that is currently happening within the Catholic Church between Vatican officials and American Nuns. By looking at this current conflict within the Catholic Church, how it began, how both sides are responding, we can more clearly see the blessing within the crisis, and that it is possible for this to lead to a transformation for the better within the Catholic Church.

Let’s begin by looking at the facts that pertain to this current conflict between the Vatican, which is the religious and administrative center of the Roman Catholic Church, and American Nuns.

About 3 ½ years ago, Vatican officials began an investigation of the Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR), which is a group that represents 80% of American nuns. As a result of the investigation, the Vatican issued an assessment of the LCWR, which stated that this group did not adequately support or represent the views of the Catholic Church, specifically around the issues of ordination of women, homosexuality, euthanasia, contraception, and abortion.

The assessment also spoke against some radical feminist themes within the LCWR. To correct these problems that were found from the investigation, the Vatican assigned one Archbishop, and two Bishops to lead an overhaul of the LCWR, within the next five years, to get 40

the sisters back on track.

In response to the Vatican’s mandate, the LCRW powerfully declared that they would not comply, but instead asked the Vatican to engage in “open and honest” dialogue about the issues in question. In addition, the LCRW expressed that the all-male leadership within the Church has serious disadvantages, as it leaves the voice of women out completely, and has little mechanism for accountability. The nuns also voiced that since they are the ones who, day in and day out, are out there serving people who are most in need, the sickest and poorest among us, they feel they have a better sense about how to best support people.

They argued that preaching about the sins of homosexuality, gay marriage, abortion, etc. is not the best way to serve these individuals. Instead, as the nuns have been doing all along, they feel it is more important to embrace these individuals with love, compassion, and acceptance.

In response to the nun’s request for open discussion, Cardinal Levada, the person who led the investigation against the LCRW, said that the nuns should consider the mandate “an invitation to obedience” and warned of a possible “dialogue of the deaf”, insinuating that the nuns who were asking for a voice in the Church, were similar to people who were deaf.

The sisters are now left with some important decisions about how to proceed through this crisis. Some feel the nuns should comply with the Vatican’s mandate, while others feel the nuns should disband, leave the church, and form their own group. Currently, the nuns and Vatican are in dialogue about the issues raised in the mandate but the outcome is uncertain.

The current president of the LCRW, Sister Florence Deacon, recently spoke to the issue at hand by saying: “We are

women of the church called on to expand perspectives to create a new reality which recognizes women’s identity, ability, mission and responsibility, both in the church and beyond.” Creating a new reality? Expanding perspectives?

Recognizing women’s ability? Yes, yes, and yes!

Although it is uncertain how this conflict will be resolved, within the crisis we can see the beginning of a transformation for the better. The Vatican’s mandate that the nuns speak out more about what they consider to be “sins” is rooted in fear and separation. Conversely, the nuns, who have devoted their lives to serving those who are most in need, seek to spread a message of faith that is grounded in unconditional love and compassion. There is a blessing within this conflict, because crisis proceeds transformation. A system that is operating optimally must break apart before it can heal. And although the shift may at times be painful, it holds the potential to create a positive and powerful transformation within the Catholic Church and the world.

The Importance of Reducing Stress Is stress taking the fun out of your life? You may not realize it but stress plays a large role in a great number of problems, both physical and mental.

In fact, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is estimated that up to 90 percent of all illness and diseases are stress-related.

There are many ways stress can affect us. We all have different areas where we are most vulnerable and stress will affect these areas first. For some people it may be their neck, shoulders or back.

Some people tend to eat more when they are experiencing stress. Some get headaches, anxiety, depression, heart disease and suffer strokes, it may also cause sleep problems. Stress can affect your concentration and memory. It can lead to gastrointestinal disorders and may cause pain. It can also contribute to health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity and diabetes. Recently on the news there was story about how stress may be a contributing factor in dementia.

There are two kinds of stress, external and internal. External stress includes things like school, work, family, etc.

Internal stress is caused by emotional pressures inside of us. This often comes from unresolved emotional issues from the past. These painful emotions from

the past will, however, contribute to our overall stress. If we remove the stress from the past, (our internal stress) we will be able to deal with external stress in a much healthier way. The internal stress that we hold on to takes a lot of our energy. Thus by removing this internal stress, we have much more energy to deal with our everyday problems.

It is clear that stress must be taken seriously. So many problems can result from stress, especially prolonged stress, that it is essential we take appropriate action. The question is, how to deal with stress so that it does not cause any of the above mentioned problems?

There are many things we can do to reduce the effects of stress on our bodies and our minds. Such things as physical activity, relaxation techniques, meditation, Yoga, and Tai Chi can all be helpful. In addition, it is helpful to get enough sleep, drink lots of water, avoid alcohol and caffeine, and eat a balanced diet.

One of the best ways to reduce the negative effects of stress is with the use of hypnosis. Many peer review studies have now been conducted which attest to the fact that hypnosis is very effective for a wide variety of problems. Hypnosis can be very helpful in reducing the negative effects of stress on our bodies and our minds.

Hypnosis is extremely relaxing. This in itself is very helpful in counteracting the negative effects of stress. In addition, if you want to begin a new program such as exercise, hypnosis can help you stick to the new regime without giving up. Often people make a conscious decision to change, but the problem is that their subconscious was not involved in the new decision. Without involving the subconscious and relying on will power alone, you are not very likely to succeed. This is where hypnosis can be extremely helpful. Hypnosis bypasses the critical faculty of the brain, which means the positive messages can get

www.BodyMindSpiritRADIO.com

into the subconscious part of the mind much more easily and rapidly. Once the subconscious accepts the new message, you are able to make the new plan a permanent part of your life. This is how one can make changes that will last.

Another helpful way you can overcome the effects of stress is by learning selfhypnosis. A qualified (certified) hypnotist can teach you an effective way to do self-hypnosis. Once you learn selfhypnosis you can use it whenever you feel the need to relax and calm down. It is even helpful for getting a good nights sleep. This will enable you to wake up refreshed and better able to deal with the stress of the day.

I hope you are beginning to realize that hypnosis can be extremely beneficial in many areas of your life, and especially for reducing and eliminating the problems that result from stress.

Spiritual Horoscopes Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) – Happy Birthday Scorpio! This is a wonderful year for meditation and development of intuition. This month Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune are all combining to help you feel centered, serene and poised – even with difficult issues.

Relationships will be smoother. You can even start a very romantic new partnership, or your current one will feel like a “second honeymoon”!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) – It’s time to clear up financial issues.

Whether dealing with debt or needing to learn money-management skills, you can bravely move ahead and gain confidence, ending up feeling way more prosperous than you did with the chaos! Also, clean and organize your home, since physical clutter can clog the flow of finances. Make sure to have a serene place for your meditation so you can stay spiritually centered!

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) – Venus, the planet of love and fulfillment, is in your sign for a prolonged stay! You can start a new relationship or solve problems in a current partnership so you can appreciate each other newly. You can also meet new friends who are interested in the spiritual path. See if you can meditate together and support each other in higher goals.

It’s also good to ponder what keeps you from feeling fully happy and rid yourself of that negative subconscious programming!

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) – You’ll have lots of breakthroughs at work and feel much more successful!

Financial issues can clear up.

Meditate on ways you can keep your serenity throughout your life – ways to stay above the drama! This gives more energy for creativity, prosperity, good health and happy relationships.

It’s also a good time to re-vamp your diet. Don’t be stuck in a food rut, since new meals bring new minerals and new levels of energy!

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) – Neptune is your ruling planet and moves direct this month! This offers clarity about boundary issues, as well as ways to be more assertive and get your needs met! You can have breakthroughs with work or relationships – and also overcome addictions. Your connection with others will deepen because you’re revealing your authentic self. Your soul is victorious over the little pesky personality! You’ll feel your soul power – which is gentle but strong – in all areas of your life!

Aries (March 21 – April 19) – Dreams and meditations become more profound as you make an effort to connect with deeper parts of yourself. Make the time because life becomes so much easier and you’ll be successful in an effortless way! Family issues can resolve, even if they’re longstanding, mostly due to your inner guidance. There’s also good work karma afoot – maybe a raise, or having a wonderful new colleague that makes your job a pleasure!

Taurus (April 20 – May 20) – Mercury moves direct and helps clear any relationship misunderstandings. If you’ve been meditating together, instead of misunderstandings, you’ve been developing more intimacy, and you’ll reap the benefits of that! It’s also a great time to continue to dwell on positive affirmations and creative visualization. You’ll be able to manifest these changes because of your loving energy field.

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) – Many positive changes can happen at work – especially if you’re able to bring your spiritual mindset to the office. It’s

Body Mind Spirit Guide |

November 2013

easy to be spiritual while meditating, at yoga or with a dear friend, but living it out in “mundane” circumstances is the challenge! Yet, if you can do it, even just a smidge, you’ll set exciting changes in motion. Also, deeper trust is forming in your relationship, or you can meet a new person with whom bonding feels safe.

Cancer (June 21 – July 22) – You can be starting a new relationship – or vastly improving your current one.

Meditation shows what directions to move in so you can be your authentic self and bond more deeply. Incorporating spiritual activities together will help build a fulfilling foundation. Single or partnered, make a list of qualities about your ideal partner – and a list of how you can be an ideal partner. Ponder it, adjust it, and seek to manifest it!

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) – Pay close attention to dreams, and also intuitions that jump into your mind. The Universe wants you to heal issues of trust regarding sexuality, finances and spiritual surrender. Meditate on let go of control. Trust that there is a guiding force and it’s safe to blend and surrender. You’ll have clarity about healing relationship problems – and issues of debt or overspending. You’ll also feel safer connecting with God, whatever you feel God is. By releasing 3rd dimensional personality issues, you gain 4th dimensional soul power!

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) – Difficulties or misunderstandings in relationships clear up! You’ll probably see you’re actually each other’s ideal partner, but your egos were in the way, blocking that truth. If single, you’ll see yourself more clearly and feel confident about what you have to offer. Also, re-connect with old friends – it’s amazing how much love and support is still there! Keep meditating on positive affirmations and watch them come true!

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) – You’ll have insights into how thoughts impact your physical health and mental serenity.

Are you addicted to the drama of indecision? Think of the Libra scales moving up and down. Meditate on staying balanced, even when life is chaotic and there are choices to make. Train yourself to identify with the fulcrum of the scale. You are the still center point. You are not the scale’s vacillating edges! This perspective will change your life!

Clay Balls A man was exploring caves by the seashore. In one of the caves, he found a canvas bag with a bunch of hardened clay balls. It was like someone had rolled clay balls and left them out in the sun to bake. They didn’t look like much, but they intrigued the man, so he took the bag out of the cave with him. As he strolled along the beach, he would throw the clay balls one at a time out into the ocean as far as he could.

He thought little about it, until he dropped one of the clay balls and it cracked open on a rock. Inside was a beautiful, precious stone! Excited, the man started breaking open the remaining clay balls. Each contained a similar treasure. He found thousands of dollars worth of jewels in the 20 or so clay balls he had left. Then it struck him. He had been on the beach a long time.

He had thrown maybe 50 or 60 of the clay balls with their hidden treasure into the ocean waves. Instead of thousands of dollars in treasure, he could have taken home tens of thousands but he had just thrown it away!

It’s like that with people. We look at someone, maybe even ourselves, and we see the external clay vessel. It doesn’t look like much from the outside, it isn’t always beautiful or sparkling, so we discount it. We see that person as less important than someone more beautiful or stylish or well known or wealthy. But we have not taken the time to find the treasure hidden inside that person.

There is a treasure in each one of us. If we take the time to get to know that person, and if we ask God to show us that person the way He sees them, then the clay begins to peel away and the brilliant gem begins to shine forth.

May we not come to the end of our lives and find out that we have thrown away a fortune in friendships because the gems were hidden in bits of clay. May we see the people in our world as God sees them. I am so blessed by the gems of friendship I have with each of you. Thank you for looking beyond my clay vessel.

Love Your Crazy (and discover your divine destiny) Over the years, Spirit has called me progressively forward to share in greater and greater platforms. First a few clients, writing articles, books, a mentoring program, and then a radio show.

Each step required me to love another layer of beliefs such as, “Who are you to say this?” or “People will attack you”. All the limiting beliefs I developed through childhood to be small, quiet and obedient would rise up on each expansion.

Recently I was asked by God to claim the next level of my ‘bad-assery’. Oops! Was that not spiritual? Personally, I’d rather be authentic than ‘spiritual’. I was told to include in my website how my guides and I can clear years of negativity, pain and karma from a person. I had to fully disclose the power of how Mother Mary was working through me and as me, in a session.

After I sent the revisions to the web designer, I had a wave of vulnerability and ‘part’ of me that wanted to hide. The ‘part’ that wanted to hide was ‘my 12 year-old’ self; the little girl within me that felt dominated by her step-mother and gave her power away. The little girl that fought with her step-mother for her daddy’s love.

We all have times when a wounded child runs the show.

My 12 year-old hid the power of what has been happening in sessions. You know, the times when you react, beg, and throw a tantrum, trying to make things go your way. That may be your 14 year-old. Or, when you worry and shut down, no longer wanting to engage in life. That may be your 5 year-old.

health and life. I teach that everyone in your life (especially family) is a mirror into yourself. You don’t need to look any farther than your own family to see what spiritual growth will propel you into your divine destiny. It is a spiritual warrior who knows whatever is triggered within themselves, is about themselves. In the past when I have embraced my wounded parts with my parents or sisters, I saw changes in my body, finances etc.

Somehow, I had forgotten that step-parents count too!

God will access things you feel you have already healed. God can’t use your neighbor’s history or someones history you don’t know. Maybe you need to expand into the next awareness of forgiveness so your anger with (fill in the blank) comes up again. Spiritual growth is not linear. Meaning, things are meant to return, to bring you into the next expansion of your-Self. Embrace this opportunity to grow. And...there will also be a time when you do close chapters on issues.

Remember, you are already amazing, powerful and gifted, and waking up to this fact. You are here to be a living example of God through loving yourself. Playing small hurts you and those around you.

Don’t hide your ‘bad-assery’ anymore. No matter your occupation, you can inspire people by being your authentic self. Being yourself is enough. Creation needs you to shine all that you have already been given, in the little, and big ways that you can.
