And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one

Importance of Trace Minerals

By John Chetcuti According to Dr. Linus Pauling, winner of two Nobel prizes, all “Diseases of humanity can be attributed to the lack of minerals in our bodies.” He went on to say that, “You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”

Experts tell us that trace minerals are rarely found in the natural foods grown today because the soil has become depleted due to modern, intensive farming methods. Sadly, each successive generation of fast-growing, pest-resistant produce is becoming less and less nutritious. As a result, we aren’t getting the complete balance of nutrition our cells need to function and flourish.

Here is a short list of trace minerals and the roles they play in helping to maintain that delicate balance: Magnesium - Helps maintain normal heart rhythm, immune system, and muscle function. Low magnesium levels are linked to a variety of conditions, including hypertension, heart disease, osteoporosis, and poorly controlled diabetes. Signs you

could be deficient: Body odor, constipation, muscle cramps, insomnia, headaches, and fatigue.

Phosphorus - A mineral and electrolyte, phosphorus is a key component of cells and bones, and plays a large role in calcium regulation (healthy bones and teeth). Abnormal phosphorus can mean abnormalities in the bones, calcium, or in electrolyte balance. Signs you could be deficient: Loss of appetite, anxiety, bone pain, fragile bones, stiff joints, fatigue, irregular breathing, irritability, numbness, weakness, and weight change.

Calcium - A mineral and electrolyte, calcium is crucial for maintaining proper nerve and heart function, blood clotting, and muscle contraction. Signs you could be deficient: Severe calcium deficiency can produce signs and symptoms of confusion and memory loss. A low blood calcium level can affect the functions of the nervous system and result in mental confusion, delusions, and memory loss. Mood changes such as depression may also result.

Iron – Iron is crucial to normal body functions. If you do not have enough iron, your body cannot make hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying component of red blood cells. You may also develop anemia, a disorder that occurs when there is not enough hemoglobin in the blood. Signs you could be deficient: Feeling tired, difficulty breathing, dizziness, headaches, feeling cold.

Potassium - Potassium helps maintain the correct balance of fluid in the body, as well as the right chemical balance of acids and bases. Potassium triggers muscle contractions, including heart muscle contractions. The balance of potassium with other electrolytes is the key to assessing optimal electrolyte function.

Signs you could be deficient: Weakness, fatigue, muscle cramps, constipation.

DEVA Vegan Trace Minerals is one mineral concentrate that I highly recommend; it contains over 72 naturally occurring ionic trace minerals from the Great Salt Lake. 99% of the sodium is removed making it a “low-sodium” supplement. Our reasonably priced product can be a great addition to your supplement regimen if you are looking for a high quality trace mineral source.

Taking trace minerals every day can help you get a wide spectrum of ionic trace minerals.

DEVA Trace Minerals is 100% vegan, vegetarian and is registered by the Vegan Society, the non-profit organization that actually invented the word “vegan”.

John Chetcuti is a vegan of 29 years and owner of Atom’s Green Market, a natural products wholesaler.

He was president and co-founder of the Michigan Vegan Society and is currently studying plant-based nutrition at Cornell University. Retailers, for wholesale information, call (313)300-7709

Summer Safety for Dog Paws

.

By Mary Jo Nieson A dog’s paws are open, literally, to summer dangers. The paw pad is like a sponge; it absorbs as well as releases heat through sweat. The paw pad releases the majority of a dog’s heat, the nose a small percentage only.

Hot sidewalks, especially blacktop walkways, can keep our dogs from releasing heat through their paw pads. This can burn the pads as well as contribute to heat stroke. Can you put your bare foot on the surface for 10 seconds? If not, then your dog is in danger. Always choose grassy areas if possible for walking the dog. One can be positioned on the walkway with the dog on the grass if necessary. Doggie boots are counterproductive, as they will hold the heat inside leaving the dog at risk of overheating.

Since the dog’s paw is free to absorb things from the ground, fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides are absorbed by the paw pad. Granules can be stuck inside the paw. The dog may be seen chewing on his irritated paws. If the fur has become discolored, then yeast (smell of corn chips is an indicator) may also have set in.

A half cup of white vinegar per gallon makes a wonderful post walk or daily foot bath. Be sure to dry the paws well. Organic cold pressed and unrefined coconut oil can be lightly applied to the pads if they still seem overly dry or irritated. Coconut oil is antibacterial and can aid in healing. Short on time? Even a cool water foot bath will help.

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.

It is also important to read all safety information with any lawn and garden products used. A dog’s ‘out’ time for elimination needs can quickly become deadly with some products.

Reducing your dog’s exposure to toxins outdoors can help prevent illness and lengthen his/her lifespan.

So Many Levels of Your Self

By Eve Wilson

As human beings, we exist at many levels of consciousness; this makes us very interesting and complex! The most obvious levels are our Higher Self, conscious mind, emotions, and our unconscious self. Each level impacts our experience of life.

Though most of us don’t pay attention to all levels of ourselves, here is why we should.

Our Higher Self is who we really are, and where we find our true intelligence and wisdom; so we definitely want to become more identified with and aware of that aspect. Our conscious mind and emotions are obviously important levels of self. But it is our unconscious self that I want to address most specifically.

What is happening in our unconscious self is powerful in its influence over how we feel and respond to life. It carries forward the influences from childhood and past lives. The positive influences provide stability and strength where we need them.

But when we get that feeling that there is something within us that is undermining our success, pulling the rug out from under us, or causing us to make bad choices, the reason is hidden in the unconscious self.

Here is an area where spiritual healing can help create a new foundation for our lives. Bringing enlightened consciousness

Spiritual healings with Eve give strength and courage to succeed and be whole on every level. For adults, children, couples, families, pets. Recommended by Doctors, Nurses, Chiropractors and Psychologists.

to the unconscious self allows healing to take place. Then our higher intelligence can provide a strong new foundation for our relationships, careers, financial success and health. Within our unconscious, there hides parts of our self which have gotten trapped in the past; we call these parts, Inner Children -- although sometimes they may be inner adults. Inner children hold memories of circumstances where we were unable to cope with what happened. They live perpetually in those moments, holding all the pain, fear, self-doubt, shame, or hopelessness of that experience. Buried in our unconscious, they may get triggered in the present by events; then their feelings rise to consciousness and undermine our mature and capable experience. Suddenly we may feel like a child, unable to cope with life.

Spiritual healing addresses this problem by bringing higher intelligence, love, forgiveness, emotional release and healing to the earlier experience. That aspect of a person can then mature, and all of their innate gifts and intelligence can begin to support the adult experience, instead of undermining it. Living successfully in the present may require us to heal our past.

One surprising thing I find in people’s unconscious self are Inner Children, emotions, thoughts and fears that came from other people. Commonly absorbed from parents and family members during childhood, people may take them on from friends and lovers as well. This happens most with those who are emotionally empathic, and naturally psychic, who tend to be receptive to others. Releasing these influences can correct emotional, mental and spiritual issues. Then the person’s true self can become stronger.

There are so many levels of yourself, and all of them should support you! Sometimes it can feel as though one part of you is going one direction, and another part is pulling you back.

Becoming conscious in your unconscious self can help you work this out.

Things you can do to understand and heal your unconscious:

through; let it flow as a stream of consciousness.

Both your unconscious and higher conscious will communicate to you in this way.

When you feel angry, afraid, or stuck, ask yourself - How old do I feel emotionally? The age that you feel will be the age of the Inner child that is reacting to what is currently happening in your life. This would be a good time for spiritual healing. Or, if you feel up to it, meditate to recall what happened at that age; but stay aware that you are now an adult. Love that part of you, and remind it that you are all grown up now, and better able to handle things. Re-imagine that situation with your adult self guiding, protecting and creating a positive outcome for your child self. Then ask your Higher Self to surround the child in a bubble of love, safety, and healing. Return your focus to the present moment, and your adult self.

IN THE LIGHT: “Little Truths” Offers a Variety of Classes!

At one point in my life, I had imagined people looking to me for guidance in an inspiring retail environment that I would create.

And it has come true! I manifested my dream of opening a New Age store and attracting grateful customers and happiness into my life.

I knew that when I opened “Little Truths” I would be serving a growing community. What has become increasingly clear to us since we’ve opened our doors is that there has been a significant increase in public interest in New Age philosophy. It seems that more and more people are hungry for information and inspiration to help them achieve what they want in life.

The desire for greater awareness has led many people to participate in our classes. We have an exciting line-up for July!

Rheisa Barres, a UCM Certified Healer Practitioner, also trained in various holistic modalities, will lead an “Emotional Aromatherapy Class” on Monday, July 11, and 25, 6:309:00PM. This class includes a personalized Zyto scan of your body’s energetic cellular communication which identifies imbalances and suggests oils and methods to support your good health! $25 What’s in your medicine cabinet? Before the age of overthe-counter remedies, our mothers and grandmothers took care of their families with old recipes. In this series of classes, participants will learn how to prepare some common remedies from lawn weeds and garden herbs. “Minjung Godfrey Folk Medicine Cabinet” runs Tuesday, July 12, 19, 26, 6:00-8:00PM. Minjung, formerly a medical and pharmaceutical translator as well as a certified medical interpreter, is a foraging instructor of “Will Forage for Food” (willforageforfood.com). She teaches classes in edible and medicinal plants in Wayne and surrounding counties. $60 for all three classes ($25 for one class before June 30 and $75 for all three classes, $30 for one class after July 1) Join Maret Johnson for her class on Thursday, July 14, 7:009:00PM and “Travel the Chakras”. In this class, learn about the energy centers within the human body, the seven chakras, and how to align them to be free from Dis-Ease. Maret (mar-eh) is a traveler along life’s path.

The Magic of Yoga Twists: Release the Past & Make Room for the Future

in Sanskrit.

Try an easy twist, sitting right where you are: 1) Sit tall, lengthening the spine. 2) Begin with one deep ‘ujjayi’ or big filling and ballooning belly breath-inhale and exhale. 3) Inhale and on the exhale, twist toward the right keeping the spine long, bringing the left palm to the right knee. 4) Inhale and twist on the exhale in the opposite direction.

By Leah Slagenwhite Stuck. Stagnant. Things are not moving...

Rx? Ignite the fire from within.

Burn away the past to create the change you want to see in the future. Drink in breath and feel it unravel the mind. Twist and wring out all the ‘stuff’.

Every aspect of our entire sensory experience is energy: people, places, events, things, and even words on a screen. If we are not conscious in clearing our energy body, it will seep into the breath body, and we may feel a shallow, short breath.

When we continue to stay unconscious, it’s inevitable that a chain reaction occurs and all of a sudden, we become affected by the energy around us.

Most of us get it. We are awake and it’s just a matter of how quickly we can catch our breath or that negative thought and reroute ourselves. The beauty of the way yoga has assimilated as more of a physical practice here in the West, is that the very act of moving and contorting the physical body into varied shapes purifies every layer of our being. Internal and External.

Mind and Body. Whether we intend to or not.

When we practice twisting in yoga, we physically and energetically wring out the old staleness to make room for the fresh and new. Each twist plays its part in facilitating the process of shedding the restrictive layers of conditioning.

Twisting encourages releasing gripping fear, stress, worry and tension around our muscles so that we can relax enough to feel the deepest part of our core, or, energetically speaking, the strength of the manipura chakra, aka., our internal fire or ‘agni’

Exhaling on the twists is great for digestion and detoxification on every level. Imagine wringing out the spine and the belly and letting any tension or stress fall toward the earth (coincidence that the belly of the earth is fire?).

Summer Sunshine and Vitamin D

By Dr. William H. Karl, D.C. Summer’s finally here! The rays of the sun are very strong at this time of year, so play it safe by limiting your sun exposure and pay attention to signs of burning. It’s easier to prevent a burn than undo the damage later. However, if you can be in the sun without burning, you may be able to reap some of the amazing benefits of sunshine - of which there are many!

Theoretically, it’s possible to obtain almost all of our vitamin D requirements from sunshine. It’s the way our bodies were designed. However, most people cannot get the required amount of vitamin D from the sun for lots of reasons. The body’s ability to convert precursor vitamin D into useable vitamin D3 in the layers of the skin when exposed to ultraviolet light is often hampered due to both natural and unnatural conditions.

The factors that can interfere with our ability to obtain enough vitamin D from the sun include the time of year, time of day, latitude, elevation, the ozone layer, cloud cover, pollution, surface reflection, one’s age, sunscreens, current tan level, skin color, kidney function, and whether or not one has inflammatory bowel disease or other conditions causing fat malabsorption, one’s weight (including obesity or people who have undergone gastric bypass surgery), antioxidant levels, overall diet, and nutrition.

Even without the above adverse conditions, we need to have the precursor (pre-vitamin D) that’s made from cholesterol in the outer layers of our skin. To have this, we must consume healthy fats. If you’ve already had your cholesterol lowered artificially, it may be worth looking at your ratios to see what’s best for your overall health. This part is pretty technical so I’ll save it for my

workshop on July 24th.

Approximately 50% of the general population and 95% of our senior citizens in the US are at risk for vitamin D deficiencies and/or insufficiency. There’s still plenty of confusion over the best ways to get vitamin D and how much is needed, so this isn’t surprising. For seniors, getting vitamin D from the sun rarely provides adequate levels since people over the age of 70 produce about 30 percent less vitamin D compared to those who are younger with similar sun exposure.

Why do we need vitamin D? It’s known primarily for preventing osteoporosis by regenerating and maintaining healthy bone structure. Vitamin D balances calcium and phosphorus which helps regulate blood pressure and prevent heart disease, assists with diabetes, improves immunity, helps the body resist infections, and provides protection against many forms of cancer and autoimmune diseases, such as multiple sclerosis and inflammatory bowel disease.

Sunshine activates your pineal gland to produce feel good hormones. Feeling “blue” is one of the “7 Signs of Vitamin D Deficiency” by Dr. Mercola (2014). Other signs included having darker skin, being 50+ years of age, being overweight or having a higher muscle mass, having aching bones (often misdiagnosed as fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome), head sweating, and gut trouble. Since vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, deficiencies often result when the ability of the gastrointestinal tract to absorb fat is affected (e.g. Crohn’s disease, celiac and non-celiac gluten sensitivity, and inflammatory bowel disease).

Dr. Mercola described vitamin D as a potent neuroregulatory steroidal hormone influencing nearly 3,000 of our 25,000 genes that may be turned on or turned off depending on the sufficiency of our

14 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

vitamin D levels. He cites a study by Dr. Holick in which 2,000 IUs of vitamin D per day for several months resulted in the up-regulation of 291 different genes controlling 80 different metabolic processes.

I recommend taking a high quality, non-synthetic vitamin D supplement and consuming foods that provide vitamin D, because few people can obtain enough to meet requirements from sunshine.

The best sources of vitamin D3 are fish liver oils and the flesh of fatty fish, such as salmon, herring, sardines, tuna, and mackerel. Small amounts of vitamin D3 are also found in egg yolks, beef liver, and cheese, and certain mushrooms.

Avoiding synthetic vitamin D is essential. When synthetic vitamin D supplements were given to children in the early part of the 19th century, it resulted in calcifying the kidneys. Even people today can have this happen. If the condition isn’t too advanced, there are natural ways of helping resolve it.

Otherwise, medical intervention may be necessary.

Having vitamin D levels checked annually through a blood test is also extremely important. The ideal range for general health agreed upon by many experts is 50 - 70 ng/ml, more in some cases. I recommend that all of my patients test and monitor their levels annually as they may change throughout the years.

Vitamin D supplementation must also be balanced with vitamin D’s friends, free fatty acids. They help move the calcium out of the bloodstream into the tissues where calcium is needed.

Free fatty acids also help you avoid hypercalcemia which is excess calcium in the bloodstream. Free fatty acids are also called vitamin K2.

As mentioned earlier, vitamin D helps balance the calcium and phosphorus used for rebuilding bones, making them

JULY 2016

stronger and enabling them to function like a bank for storing minerals until needed by other body tissues, and systems long to work properly; we need free fatty acids. If you’re deficient in free fatty acids or take the wrong form of calcium, you may end up with calcium deposits. Calcium deposits may contribute to or even create conditions such as kidney stones, bone spurs, stiff joints, osteoarthritis, bone cancer, gallstones, ovarian cysts, cellulite, scar tissue, dental plaque, gum disease, and atherosclerosis.

As a side note, calcium is used by the immune system to kill bacteria. Your white cells use calcium like a weapon. When you are sick and have a fever, putting calcium into circulation in your body helps to kill the bad bacteria.

So much to tell you….Come to the workshop and learn more!

Shedding the Weight; Body, Mind, Emotion

By Dave Krajovic When we think of shedding weight, most think of shedding physical weight. But heaviness is more than physical. It can permeate every aspect of your life. Whenever you feel burdened, there is weight to be shed in the mind, the body and the emotions. These three are interconnected. Most people think that carrying burdens are a normal part of life, but some of us know this is not true. Now you know there is another possibility. Living a life filled with burdens is living a mundane life mired in chaos, drama and fear. None of this is necessary.

Emotional weight can be as detrimental to the body as physical weight, just as emotional abuse can be just as damaging as physical abuse. In fact, while physical injury can heal in days or weeks, emotional abuse can take years to heal, if at all. It can continue to poison relationships, denying joy to those who deserve it so much. How many times have we denied our joy by carrying the weight of past burdens into our relationships? Doing so prevents you from living full and present in the moment. You can never be truly joyful.

But you do not have to wait years to shed your burdens.

Seize this day and make a different choice. Whatever burdens you are carrying, you can shed their weight. But you must acknowledge they exist. You must feel it to heal it!

Emotions not felt cannot be healed. The burdens we carry take on the masks of depression, anxiety, fear, unworthiness and so on. Although these burdens pull us out of balance, they are also calling us back into balance if we are willing to listen.

Each burden has as its source a sense of lack. It could be a sense of unworthiness, a lack of self-love, or even a feeling of powerlessness. We hunger; we ache for that which we know we are missing. We feel that somehow this void can be filled by something outside of ourselves and so we eat more than we need, we work harder to make more money, we buy more things to satisfy our cravings, and we will even control and manipulate others to satisfy our emptiness. No matter how hard we work or how hard we try, the ache doesn’t seem to go away. In some cases, people resort to medications, narcotics and alcohol to numb the pain.

Since we know more effort does not satisfy, then perhaps we are looking in the wrong place. Instead of looking

outside ourselves, why not look within for what we seek? I finally understood what real joy was when I decided to stop blaming others, claim my power and look within. You can do this too.

When you follow the path within, you will discover what you really hunger for. This is the key to shedding the weight of your burdens and ending your frustrations. No struggle is involved.

We think it must be hard, that we must struggle or the result is not worth it. But if struggle worked, the battle would have ended long ago. Aren’t you tired of the struggle? Isn’t it time for a new way?

Surrender to who you think you are and discover what you really want and need. When you do, you will be fulfilled and the burdens you carry will be lifted from you. The incessant cravings you feel can now be met. You will discover they were never cravings at all but a yearning to discover the truth of who you really are.

The path within will lead to expanded awareness where real peace and fulfillment are found. Such a state, by definition, is less dense, lighter. Dissimilar energies cannot exist in the same time or space, so the heaviness has no choice but to be uplifted to a lighter, happier and more fulfilled state of consciousness.

Meditation and breathwork are key tools to the path within.

Breathwork, along with meditation, can get you there faster and with less effort. The key to every change, to life, is through the breath.

The following affirmations can also help when introduced in your meditation as an object of attention. “I am completely fulfilled,” “I am perfect as I am,” “Everything I need can be found within,” “I am lightness itself.”

Even when used alone, these affirmations will begin to replace the heaviness with vitality, energy and joy. Repeat them many times throughout the day.

Your burdens have lifted. Rejoice! Your struggle has ended.

Know that you have come home!

Vera Cruz Amethyst

By Jennifer VanderWal Vera cruz amethyst from Vera Cruz Mexico is a rare formation of amethyst. The Vera Cruz amethyst will often form in double terminated crystals, having a point on each end. These crystals sometimes will have amethyst phantoms; you can see the amethyst phantom inside with the clear quartz surrounding it. They carry a similar vibration of the violet flame from St.Germain.

These crystals are small but have a very powerful energy and vibration. Don’t expect to feel grounded when using them.

All amethyst is beneficial for opening our crown chakras and helping us bring in higher vibrational energies, wisdom and information.

The Vera Cruz amethyst crystals all have a lot of record keepers on them as well as etchings, making them look like old souls with a lot of history. A record keeper is a physical marking on the surface of the crystals, which means they have been programmed by other beings in other time periods. The programs can be ancient Lemurian or Atlantan teachings, ascended masters, or even other races from other places and dimensions. The Vera Cruz amethyst crystals have a very high vibration that feels like the ascended masters have programmed some of them. This information or programs can be healing techniques, how to build a more eco-friendly environment, or about living in peace and harmony with all beings; the information is limitless, and always for our highest good and that of the planet.

chakra for 5 minutes. As you do this, feel the base chakra and all your chakras open and activate, pulling upwards “grounding� each chakra in with its higher chakras.

Now, move to the sacral chakra; hold the Vera Cruz amethyst there for 5 minutes, feeling your sacral chakra, all your other chakras and third eye chakra being cleared and activated. Every chakra the Vera Cruz is used on activates that chakra and the 3rd eye chakra, with a continual energy of pulling your lower chakras upward toward your higher chakras. These crystals are very cleansing, using the violet flame to transmute all the energies in each of your chakras and all your auras. They bring higher information, wisdom and knowledge into the lower chakras. Have fun!

Jennifer VanderWal Jennifer VanderWal has been a Melody Crystal Healing Instructor & Facilitator since 2004. She is a Master of the Usui Tibetan Karuna Seiryoku system of Reiki since 1999. She is a spiritual counselor, teaches crystal healing classes & offers a variety of crystal healing techniques at Bodyworks Healing Center, Plymouth. 734 416-5200.

The record keepers on the Vera Cruz amethyst are the many ridges on the sides of these crystals. They are like a filing cabinet, running your finger over the ridges in an upward motion opens the records and rubbing down on the lines closes the records. Vera Cruz amethyst crystals are excellent when used in meditation, helping to calm and quiet the mind, bringing about a gentle focus. They also help us to be open and receptive to the infinite universal wisdom available to us all.

These crystals are also excellent for getting a restful night of sleep and used for dream recall. While holding these powerful crystals, the beta state is immediately activated. They connect our throat and heart chakras enabling us to speak and manifest from the loving space of our hearts. These crystals are great when used in chakra balancing, helping to clear lower vibrational energies from the chakras and auras.

You can use this technique using one crystal. Start at the base chakra; hold the Vera Cruz amethyst on your base JULY 2016 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

What Can Hypnosis Do for You?

By Phil Rosenbaum Are you familiar with hypnosis?

Do you believe it works? Have you ever wondered if hypnosis could be helpful for you? Unfortunately, many people still harbor a great deal of misunderstanding about hypnosis.

First and foremost, hypnosis does work. There are now thousands of peer reviewed studies that demonstrate that hypnosis not only works, but can be very helpful with a wide variety of problems.

Since hypnosis is such a useful tool, the question is, Why is it not used more often? There still appears to be a great deal of misunderstanding about hypnosis. Let me clarify some of the myths. To begin with, all hypnosis is really selfhypnosis. A person can only voluntarily go into a hypnotic state. One cannot be put into a hypnotic trance if he or she does not want to be hypnotized. Hypnosis is not sleep. During hypnosis, the body and conscious mind are in a very relaxed and natural state. One’s concentration is much more focused.

Hypnosis is not mind control nor is it amnesia. The hypnotized person is aware of everything being said, is in control, and could always come out of the trance if he or she were uncomfortable.

In the hypnotic state, you will accept suggestions as long as the suggestions are in your comfort zone or work for the results you desire. You will not do anything that goes against your moral beliefs or values. If that were ever asked of you, either you would not respond or you would immediately snap out of trance. The subconscious mind is awake and is receptive to the positive suggestions. The only thing that may be asleep is the “gate keeper” or critical part of the conscious mind that often blocks new ideas from coming in.

For example, if I were to say to a smoker, “It’s easy for you to quit smoking,” the gatekeeper would normally not accept this information. However, when one is in a hypnotic state, this new information is more easily accepted by the subconscious mind. This allows one to change old patterns and habits that normally would be difficult to change.

Now, what are some of the areas for which hypnosis can be most helpful? It is very effective for eliminating unhealthy habits such as smoking, overeating, nail biting, tics, and stuttering. It can help with reducing stress, which can cause very serious health problems. Hypnosis can improve selfconfidence, motivation and concentration. It can help people

with anxiety, phobias, public speaking, stage freight, and test-anxiety. Hypnosis can help you achieve your goals. It can be helpful in business, and can increase your selfdiscipline, a key area for business success.

Hypnosis can improve student performance in school and college, for example, enhancing concentration and memory, and allowing one to attain better grades. This will also raise one’s self-esteem.

For those of you who love to participate in sports, hypnosis can be very effective in improving your performance. It helps you concentrate, helps you relax when tense, and helps you to believe in yourself and your abilities. Hypnosis can even help you reduce pain.

A few other areas in which hypnosis can be of benefit include overcoming fears, such as going to the dentist, fear of flying, or fear of spiders or snakes. Furthermore it can reduce high blood pressure, lower the pain of migraine headaches, help with insomnia, reduce complications after surgery, and even make childbirth easier and less painful. Hypnosis can also improve business success and prosperity. This is just a partial list of all the possible benefits of hypnosis.

Many people decide to use hypnosis when nothing else has worked for them. Why not save yourself a lot of time and frustration by choosing hypnosis first? Hypnosis takes much less time than more traditional therapies, thus saving you time and money. People who have used hypnosis also report how relaxing it feels, and often say they would have liked to remain in the trance state longer because it felt so good.

The Art of Astral Projection

By Nancy Lynn Astral projection, or astral travel, is an out of body experience where the astral body (the energy force of our physical body), separates from the physical body, while always being connected back to the physical body by an invisible cord.

The idea of astral projection can be traced back to the Egyptian dynasty. The New Testament refers to this particularly in the Book of Revelation. The practice of astral projection gained popularity early in the 20th century during the spiritualism craze founded by Helena Blavatsky, and again became popular during the New Age movement of the 1960’s.

Astral projections mainly occur when you are partaking in spiritual exercises, prior to or during sleep, or within a meditation. The astral body, which is tethered to the physical body by a cord, separates from the physical body allowing it to travel freely to a place, or another dimension as it chooses.

The astral body takes flight as it passes through any solid objects to arrive at its destination. You might be familiar with the term “remote viewing”, where people went into a trance state and astral projected their self into enemy territory to obtain important information for military use. Known as “psychic espionage” this practice was and is still being used in the armed forces to this day.

The art of astral projection takes practice in order to separate the astral body from the physical body. It is best accomplished by quieting the mind of chatter and slowing down the body to a meditative state. Then, project yourself towards the area or place you desire to move towards. The body is merely a shell that houses our spirit or life force. When we move ourselves out of the body, we allow our spirit to move about freely on a

different plane. The universe is at our fingertips, and when astral projection is mastered, we gain the ability to expand our consciousness beyond our human capabilities.

It is important that you sense the area you are projecting yourself to by using as many senses as you can to maintain yourself within that area. Try to place a candle across the room from where you will be meditating. As you meditate, begin to see your astral body moving towards the candle. As you come closer to the flame, make sure your senses feel the heat, smell the scent of the candle and view the flicker of the flame.

Then return to your human body with grace and ease. If you return at a fast rate, you might get a slight headache or feel a little uncomfortable, even though both of those feelings will pass quickly. A sudden sound or quick adjustment can cause this to occur. Have you ever woken up with your arm asleep or hurting a little? We tend to leave our body and astral plane when we are sleeping. Sometimes we leave for longer stretches of time, leaving our body in one position that can become a little uncomfortable. So next time you have a dream about a house you have never been to or seen and you know the layout and the furniture in each room, ask yourself, “Did I really dream it or did I astral project myself to that location?”

Astral projection brings about many amazing experiences and adventures. Take your time, keep your mind open to these experience and you will reap the benefits of mental strength and spiritual calm.

Nancy Lynn Take one of our workshops and we will help you discover more about yourself and show you step by step how to do it on your own. I’m not claiming that this workshop is going to make anyone an expert, though we hope that it will give you a nudge in the right direction.

Spiritual Understanding of Our Lives

By Marybeth Rombach Nelson As we go along in our busy lives, we give ourselves very little time to ruminate about our spiritual well-being. We work, run children around and do countless errands and activities. We are busy all hours of the day. Whew, I’m tired just thinking about it! So once we stop the merry-go-round of life and really think about how fulfilled we are in our spiritual life, an understanding is realized that we need quiet time.

However you achieve quiet time is perfect for you, be it a walk after work, a morning meditation or gardening in the yard.

Reflecting on how happy you are in the stillness of meditation or another activity helps us understand where we are now and where we want to be in the future. Spiritually being fulfilled, we gain clarity and peace in our life. We can all use some of that.

Ask yourself, What makes me feel soulful? What makes me feel really alive? The answers will guide you to becoming spiritually enriched by doing more of what your soul wants you to do. Once you realize and understand your soul preferences, you can make small changes daily to becoming more spiritually fulfilled; knowing yourself and your soul and who you really are and embracing positive life choices to reflect this in your life.

Take 10 minutes every day to be still, and profound wisdom from your soul will create a clear path for you to follow in spiritually understanding where your life needs to take you to becoming fully spiritually realized.

Affirmation I take time every day to quiet my mind.

I listen to my inner guidance.

I make small changes daily that have profound effects on me spiritually.

I am open to living on my soul’s path.

My life is getting better every day.

I am spiritually fulfilled.

I believe, I receive and I’m so very grateful.

The Magic of The Twelve Blessings – Now ON-LINE!

By Chrissie Blaze As I was writing this article on The Twelve Blessings, my husband, Gary - unaware of what I was doing - called from the other room, “Would you like to do a Service of The Twelve Blessings with me?” I hesitated, as I wanted to complete the article but on second thought, agreed; after all, this is what these Blessings are all about – Spiritual action. They were given through the extraordinary English Medium and Spiritual Master, George King in 1958, when he was overshadowed by Jesus over twelve consecutive Sundays to give these Blessings to the world.

This mystic text has found its way around the world for almost 60 years, transforming the lives of many. Whether one is Christian or not, nobody can deny the profound and lasting impact that Jesus has had upon our world. The sheer power of The Master Jesus’ life and teachings has spanned the centuries; so why did He need to give a further set of Teachings at this time?

The Twelve Blessings contain secrets and practices to help us at this crossroads in humanity’s evolution and to empower us to Spiritual action through this Era of Change. Jesus delivered these Blessings as an extension of the Sermon on the Mount, to include a Cosmic concept in keeping with the New Age in which we now live. His message is universal, reaching across and through the boundaries of religious dogma to a universal Spirituality that embraces all. The Twelve Blessings is not only a teaching of Oneness, but a Spiritual Practice of great power that we all can use to not only help heal our troubled world, but at the same time, profoundly help and heal ourselves.

The Master Jesus not only taught universal love, but He demonstrated the higher octaves of this great energy of Creation. His status is elevated; His teachings enlightened, and his mission far-reaching. The Twelve Blessings embodies His elevated teachings that are so relevant today – and so needed at this time of turmoil and chaos.

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.

More importantly though, 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.

JOIN WITH THE TWELVE BLESSINGS Every Monday, we join together at The Aetherius Society Temple for a beautiful Service of The Twelve Blessings. Please join us if you can! The world needs our love and our prayers!

The Service is at 8 p.m. and includes distant healing for those who need this. The venue is: 3119 N. Campbell Road, Royal Oak, MI 48073. Tel: 248-588-0290.

NEW! THE TWELVE BLESSINGS ON-LINE We also now hold an on-line Service of The Twelve Blessings every Saturday evening at 8:30 p.m. These Services are broadcast out of Michigan and Los Angeles. On Sundays, these Services are broadcast out of London, England. You can join in with any of these Services via your computer.

Oral health is as important to a human body as maintaining good physical health. It is not only about a healthy smile, but also about maintaining good oral hygiene. However, the circumstances are not always ideal for all of us and sometimes infections occur within a tooth.

Infections occur when the soft part within the tooth, known as Pulp, becomes damaged. The pulp contains blood vessels, tissues and nerves inside it and when it gets damaged, it ceases to function and dies leading to inflammation and ultimately infection. The damage could be caused by a cavity, a slow decay, or a trauma to the tooth. Once a nerve dies within the tooth you have two choices: extract, or save with a root canal and crown. Saving the tooth is always the first choice.

In fact, the largest benefit of a root canal treatment is that-- it will save your tooth! Root canal treatments have up to a 97% success rate.

Regular dental appointments and check-ups go a longer way than most of us think. The tooth is the only part of the human body that cannot heal itself. Sometimes, a person doesn’t know they have infection in their tooth until it is detected with x-ray; other times it may be very painful, swollen and can cause serious health problems. If you wait until you’re aware of discomfort in your tooth, unfortunately, you waited too long and may end up needing a root canal.

There are many misconceptions surrounding the root canal treatment/procedure and whether patients experience root

canal pain. Here is the truth; root canal procedure/ treatment doesn’t cause pain, it relieves it. The pain is caused by the damage within the tooth; the root canal procedure is relatively painless and is done to eliminate the pain as well as the infection.

During the procedure, the damaged pulp inside the tooth is removed and the nerve canal is thoroughly cleaned before filling the tooth with a safe, non-toxic bio-compatible compound, and then the tooth is sealed for preservation. Even though the damaged pulp has been removed, the tooth is not dead as it still gets a blood supply from the periodontal nerve and the bone structure supporting the tooth will not be lost.

By Faith Brower We hear this command at the start of running races: On your mark (get in your lane or on your starting spot); Get set (get to your starting position); Go! (take off).

This saying kept running through my head ever since I saw something on Facebook. It said, “ Stop creating a life you need a vacation from. Move to where you want to live.

Start doing what you want to do. And create the life you want TODAY.” I said to myself, “I want that kind of life!” But then, my ego started up.... You can’t just sell your house. What would your family think? And I have these obligations that I can’t ignore and walk away from. Wouldn’t it be selfish of me to just do what I want? And then, a peaceful understanding seemed to gently embrace me, as if someone had thrown a soft comfy blanket over me, settling me down.

I realized that I can start TODAY to figure out what I DO WANT to do with my life. I can look through magazines and watch HGTV more intentionally, asking myself if I would like to live on a beach, or in the woods, or maybe even in a “Tiny House” on wheels. (Hey-I am getting on my mark.) Asking myself each night what I loved about my day is something I can do. This will bring me closer to doing what I want to do.

Being grateful for people, places and situations in my life will inform me about what is important to me and what I want to keep experiencing and doing. (I am getting closer to my starting position!)

Divine understanding, or a soft comfy blanket, as I choose to call it, is helping me realize how powerful I AM. I CAN create the life I want. (I am taking off!) As I do my part, God is doing his, and before I know it, I will be living the life like a winner!

It’s July Let’s loss Weight…

I’ve been trying for 30 years to lose weight and nothing till I tried Dr. Reggish’s weight loss Program. It has been a very easy program to follow.

Why you might ask… well I used to have bad sweet cravings that always interfered with me losing weight. The first time I saw Dr. Reggish, he told me that he could stop all my sugar cravings in 2 minutes. All I had to do was take this herb and my cravings would be gone. I went home and took the herb and sat down with some ice cream and cake.

I have to admit I wasn’t craving it so I said that this can’t be. I took a bite of the ice cream and it was like taking a bite of ice water. Then a bite of the cake and it tasted like nothing. I couldn’t believe it that nothing tasted sweet. I’ve lost 49 lbs in only 6 weeks. Thanks Dr Reggish for taking my sugar cravings away.

Michelle B., Bloomfield Hills. MI I’ve read about Dr. Reggish for years and wanted to put him to the test. What happened was unbelievable. The first two weeks I lost 12 lbs, but I was cheating and Dr. Reggish said that if I wanted to do better, then I have to follow the plan exactly. Well I did and the 3rd. week I lost 13 more pounds and the 4th week another 9 lbs. I’ve lost 34 lbs and I feel great. It’s now been 8 weeks and I’ve lost 59 lbs. Thanks Dr Reggish. Pat C., Royal Oak, MI I’ve tried for years to lose weight and have always failed. I heard about Dr. Reggish and decided to try his approach. I’m so glad I did. In just 3 weeks I’ve lost 25 lbs and I look fabulous. The plan is easy. If I can do it, then anyone can do it. Your my best friend Dr Reggish. Chris S., Walled Lake, MI. I drive one hour to see Dr. Reggish and I would drive further to see him, knowing what I know about him. I’ve been going to him for 14 weeks now and I’ve lost 88 pounds and firmed up my arms and stomach. I look amazing and my husband is pleased.

We both thank you Dr Reggish. Loretta B., Macomb, MI I went to see Dr Reggish because I wanted to lose weight and to find out if I had Parasites. I was losing about 4 lbs a week until I started the parasite herbs and to my surprise I saw thousands of parasites coming out in every bowel movement. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and I started losing weight

faster. The first 3 weeks I lost 12 lbs and the next 4 weeks I lost an additional 33 lbs for a total of 45 lbs. I feel great and I have the energy of an 18 year old. Thank you so much Dr Reggish.

Bill C., Highland MI Doc’s program is easy, You eat what he tells you and you lose the weight. Thanks Doc for making it so simple. Robert D., Livonia, MI I wanted to do this easy weight loss thing. In 4 months now I’ve lost 129 lbs and feel better than I’ve ever felt in my life. I have to admit that it wasn’t hard to do and Dr. Reggish , I still want to marry you. Alice M., Farmington Hills, MI. It’s now been 7 weeks and I’ve lost 47 lbs. I’m so glad I did Dr. Reggish’s Nutritional and Spinal exam for $45. I learned so much.

Thank You Dr. Reggish. I’m Looking Amazing now. Heather M., Plymouth MI. Every year at the end of winter I see Dr. Reggish to lose the 10 lbs that I put on. Just before summer so I look good on the beach.

I’ve been going to Dr. Reggish now for 19 years and I will continue till I die. Thanks Doc for all you do. P.S., I’ve been back 2 weeks now and have lost 11 lbs. Patty B., Birmingham, MI. Dr Michael D. Reggish, D.C.,N.D. is a Certified Holistic Wellness

Connecting with Your Affirmations to Recreate Your World

By Miche Lame’ As you are now practicing keeping your positive attitude by being mindful of your thoughts as explored last month, you should be seeing results. Are you continuing to start the day in a positive manner? Do you remind yourself throughout the day of your goal and the vibration and emotions that go with them?

Are you taking time to pray and listen to the soft, quiet voice inside?

There are some other ways to get your conscious and unconscious minds to work with the Higher Self and the Divine if your thoughts are still a program of fear, doubt and negativity, so that you can get deeper results on a more Divine and loving path...for the betterment of yourself and others!

When your inner programming and habits are filled with fear, doubt, anxiety, thoughts of lack or cynicism, unforgiveness, and only gain, your life will be filled with limitation, lack, tension, hard work, worry and an overall experience of expecting negative outcomes. If those are your inner thoughts, those are the vibrations you are sending out to the universe, even if you really want something better for yourself and your loved ones. And, the Divine universe will respond by giving you more of that. The Divine universe always gives you what you are subconsciously programming for yourself.

Usually, these programs were written when you were young, or, if you had what you considered to be a traumatic incident. As these programs are more deeply connected with your emotional state at the time, they tend to be even more deeply ingrained in your subconscious mind and may need extra assistance to be reprogrammed into how you really want to experience your world; to experience your world from a happy, connected and joyful adult rather than a child who has to figure out a way to survive, or even how to have a new pattern of thoughts/ behaviors/feelings than either of your parents. (Your main templates for the programming you have now.)

Start with focusing on the proverbial ‘silver lining’ if you have a negative thought. There is a reason this is a tried and true phrase. By seeking to find the good, peace, harmony and connection with the Divine, you are accepting them, claiming them, and your subconscious will get the new programming while the Divine brings you more of that! Look for the changes in your life, in your outlook, in your enjoyment of life, your loved ones and friends.

Affirmations are also terrific! Not just any affirmations. There is a technique to developing and using affirmations that is most

beneficial. Of course, the more you repeat your affirmations, the deeper they go from your conscious mind into your subconscious mind. Yet, do you know the best times to say affirmations? As soon as you wake-up in the morning, and are nice and drowsy... the subconscious mind is still close to the surface of your conscious mind. You can say your affirmations just before or after deeply breathing, and then say your gratitudes.

Another time is when you are.... wait for it.... drowsy and just going to sleep! Again, your subconscious mind is near the surface of your conscious mind and will accept your affirmations even more readily and deeply. Not only that, your subconscious mind will repeat the affirmations all night long!

How wonderful is that! Easy peasy!

If you want to repeat your affirmations during the day, get into a relaxed state of mind and then say them. I suggest you keep your affirmations fairly short and simple. For example: “I have perfect health, peace and abundance.” See yourself as having perfect health, peace and abundance. Feel yourself having perfect health, peace and abundance. Connect the emotions of happiness that you feel while having perfect health, peace and abundance. Say the same affirmation for 20 minutes. (It’s also a wise idea to say your affirmation for 20 minutes in the morning and evening!)

When you do the above, you deeply connect with your affirmations, feeling the connection with the Divine and the gratitude you have trusting your affirmations; and you are already fulfilled. In this way, you can literally recreate your life to a life of joy and happiness by learning to use the power of your mind and the Divine connection!

Tales of Healing

By Mary Teresa Hickey I have been a student of healing for over 20 years – mostly as a hobby to understand my own progression of healing post-traumatic stress. As my studies progressed, my mentor pushed me to formal training and creating a practice of my own.

I can’t say that any course was more important than another.

Each was a foundation for the next – from herbs to nutrition, to meditation, Reiki and now, Healing the Light Body School with the Four Winds. This progression has helped me find answers to questions about trauma and illness, and has opened up new possibilities.

While studying with the Four Winds, my friends were kind enough to allow me to practice on them. One such candidate was PK. PK lived a life of trauma for most of her 69 years. She left an abusive home to a kind husband, who died in a violent crash. She then married a very abusive man, with whom she had 3 children, all with neurological disorders. Needless to say, her adrenals are in constant overdrive from the “fight or flight” response, and she has been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and diabetes.

During our session, PK came away with a new life mantra: “I am safe. I am at peace.” She would cross her arms over her heart and hug herself as she said this. It gave her comfort.

The next day, she reported that she suffered some terrible nightmares after seeing me. Her son, an epileptic, was having a seizure in her dream. She was standing over him, fretting, worrying, praying. Suddenly, in her dream, she remembered, “I am safe. I am at peace.” Her conscious mind registered this as a lucid dream, and she relaxed in her slumber. Later on, she experienced her ex-husband chasing after her daughter, who is schizo-autistic. “Stop! Stop! Leave her alone!” she screamed in her sleep, chasing after them. “Wait! I am SAFE! I am at peace!” She crossed her arms over her chest, and suddenly awoke to find her arms in the same position. “It really works!” she exclaimed enthusiastically.

“That’s wonderful!” I replied. “Now, let’s help you remember this in your waking life, as you face your challenges!” She laughed and hugged me.

Mary Teresa Mary Teresa has been a student of healing for over 20 years, including shamanism at The Four Winds Light Body School, naturopathy at Trinity College, Reiki Master at ICRT, and Master of Science at CMU. Her services include nutrition, herbs, Reiki and shamanic energy healing for persons and pets. www.facebook.com/singingshaman777

The Silver Thread: Speaking with Satan

By Dr. Michael Abramsky Satan is a Hebrew word which means “the adversary”. In the Old Testament (The Torah) Satan is only mentioned three times. In each case Satan is a figure sent by God to prevent a character from committing transgressions. Satan is, therefore, God’s emissary to prevent people from harm or from thwarting God’s wishes.

It is in the Book of Job where the figure of Satan takes a different form. Satan appears as a separate embodiment who urges God to destroy Job by taking his family and his possessions, so that “he will curse you”. He argues that Job’s faith in God is contingent upon God treating him well, and that in the presence of suffering Job will desert God. In this story Satan is the character who challenges man’s faith, who tempts him away from his loyalty to God. The Book of Job was written much later in Jewish history and likely refers Persian influences. The Persians had two equal and opposing Gods who vied for control of the universe: Ahura Mazda (illuminating wisdom) and Angra Mainyu (destructive spirit). This dualistic conception of God likely bled into Jewish culture after Israel was conquered by the Persians. Under this dualism God developed a powerful adversary, and their battle was a constant.

In traditional Judaism “God is One”; Jews believe that there is only God and then there is everything else. Through the cross pollination of cultures that occurred between the Hebrew nations, Persia, Egypt, Assyria and Babylonia, a rival version of God occurred. This God was dualistic - God is Two-bifurcated into the all good and the all evil, in constant warfare.

This new Satan appeared in manifest form in the Gospel of Matthew, where Jesus is tempted by the devil. Like the Book of Job, Satan becomes an embodied character. He tries to seduce through earthly temptations, appealing to man’s sense of lust, greed, and anger. The manifest conflict is the search for spirituality which is compromised by man’s earthly seducers, his own desires.

In Buddhism the conflict becomes more explicitly psychological. After pursuing various paths to enlightenment, Siddhartha Gautama, the future Buddha, sits under the Bodhi Tree in meditation to obtain enlightenment.

The Buddha was attacked by Mara, the Devil figure or

26 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

JULY 2016

“Goddess of Darkness”. She attempted to distract him with riches, seductive women and finally sends her army against him. They shoot their arrows at him but he maintains the purity of his thought, and the arrows turn to flowers and fall at his feet.

In Buddhist thought the enemy is not external, but our internal nature; man’s natural tendency to be controlled by his internal desires. Thus in Buddhism man’s task is to conquer his internal demons as a path toward spiritual enlightenment.

Sigmund Freud translated the concept of Satan into nueropsychological terms. He saw man’s psyche as in a perpetual struggle between his id, the primitive impulses of sex and aggression, and the superego, the forces of socialization.

He saw the ego as the negotiator between these competing forces, negotiating compromises.

In Freudian psychology the id is the functional equivalent of Satan, in that it competes with our higher psychological and spiritual purpose. It is only by “defeating” the id that a path with more higher functioning is opened.

From the standpoint of personal growth, Satan is necessary in that we must face challenges to really grow. Satan tempts us, and through work, will and discipline we overcome those challenges and thus become more fully human.

Another name given to Satan is Lucifer which means “giver of light”. This title recognizes the necessity of facing satanic temptation in order to become enlightened, to enter the light.

Why hasn’t my life changed?

fundamentalists and the new age spiritual seeker suffer greatly from not doing the psychological healing needed to taste God in one’s being.

By Barbra White God wants to express as you. You are made in the image and likeness of God. Your True Self holds the energies of love, beauty, wisdom and joy that are waiting to be lived as you. So if all of this is true, why does your life look the way it does?

Are you spiritual and seek to live “in the flow”, yet wonder why your life has not changed? Are you working hard to “love yourself,” yet not seeing changes in your body, relationships or career? This may be because you have confused spirituality, “going with the flow”, and loving yourself with numbing, laziness, complacency, and narcissism. I understand this information may be hard to hear, but if you desire real change, please read on.

Numbing: directly experiencing God or Love requires feeling the painful emotions. Letting go of your false identity can be scary, challenging, and hard. Living from your true amazing self takes years of inner work and guidance from a skilled mentor. For many, this information should be freeing. Too often I see people on the spiritual path feeling like they have failed because they haven’t manifested their dreams or still feel like they want to die. Manifesting your dreams requires letting go of timing and outcome, discipline, inspired action, and support from others. What wants to “die” (addictions, lack of forgiveness, avoiding the pain, arrogance) may still need to die.

The pain is the bridge into your greater self. Numbing with pharmaceuticals or marijuana will prevent your growth. “Studies have shown antidepressants given to those 29 and younger increase suicide rate. There is no blood test for depression…. meditation, exercise, and good diet changes brain chemistry.”

-Marianne Williamson, Tears to Triumph. Afraid to feel and numbed out on pot, pills or food... we lose our connection with our soul. “You can’t experience what scripture means if you have not felt to the depth of your pain.” -Father Richard Rhor, Falling Upward.

New-age bliss bunnies or religious fanatics who talk about Love or God but do not FEEL or experience God or Love in their everyday ordinary life are similar. “There is a difference between drinking water verses just knowing its chemical components.”

-Michael Beckwith, www.AgapeLive.com. Both religious

Our society is very wounded. We have an epidemic of lack of connection to each other, to nature, to our food, and to the true essence of what it means to love.

The road back to wholeness is possible. Collecting the pieces of our broken souls is possible.

Laziness: Living in the flow includes self-discipline. Truly living in grace, flow, and the realm of miracles requires you to have a daily practice and a disciplined mind. Michael Beckwith coined the phrase “bliss-iplines” back in the nineties. If you don’t work out, your body will become weak. If you don’t have a daily spiritual practice, your mind will become filled with the world’s hate. If you don’t direct your thoughts, someone else will. Too often I see people who call themselves “spiritual” but have no spiritual practice. A person who calls themselves a musician would play his or her music. Right?

Self discipline is self love and if practiced will ignite confidence. When you have kept even a small agreement with yourself you feel safer to express in the world.

Religion can provide a foundation or container for a profound spiritual practice. Yes, at the same time this container can also become a coffin. “Those who had painful childhoods have a mania for order and certainty. They did not have a starting ‘container.’ Our obsessive search for certitude is the root of fundamentalist cruelty.” -Father Richard Rhor However, as humans we need structure to tap into our creative genius. My friend who is a famous musician said, “I had to learn and follow the musical principles to find my true gift.”

“Learn and obey the rules very well, so you know how to break them properly.” -Dalai Lama Hearing your heart’s calling takes work. Spiritual growth takes work. It takes a warrior’s heart to self-accept and love others. Real inner growth is challenging and anyone who says it is not... is trying to give you a temporary quick fix. Realizing your profound magnificence requires deep humility.

Self discipline does not mean perfection. Mistakes will

28 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

happen if you are growing. Perfection is impossible if you are growing closer to God. What does not grow, dies.

Perfectionism is ammunition for attack on self and others. Real self acceptance means loving both the dark and light parts of yourself. “It is easier to try to be better than you are, than to be who you are. Do not try to transform yourself.....Move into yourself.....As long as we try to transcend ourselves.....reach for the sky.....we are heroes carved in stone” -Marion Woodman, Coming Home to Myself.

Being you is enough. Spiritual growth can become another trap to “be better.” The impetus for spiritual growth can also be fed by our materialistic “you must produce to be valued,” achievement-based society. The process of surrendering to what is already within you goes against our cultural drive.

Don’t give up. Punitive thoughts will cause you to do it again. Forgive yourself and grow with a curiosity about your process.

Complacency: Have you taken the time to catch the vision for your life? Have you let go of what you hold onto so tightly to create space for the idea that God has for your life? In counseling people for many years I have found that people know what it is they need to let go of, but they choose not to.

Then a temporary amnesia falls over them and they wonder why their life has not changed. The prison becomes complete as they complain about others to distract themselves from what wants to emerge in their lives.

People are in tremendous pain. If they realized that the pain is a gift and that the way through the pain is the way out of it... then their pain can lead to great things. Life has pain, but suffering is optional. We also need more support: spiritual practice, nature, community, and a mentor. Don’t believe the John Wayne industrial growth society pathological individualistic b.s. that you can “do it alone.” Interdependence or asking for help, is not weakness, it is a sign of strength.

Yes... only you can be responsible for your happiness, but also don’t forget; we are one.

Change is possible, yet it is a daily step-by-step practice; following through with the little whisperings in your heart.

Feeling the pain and doing the inner work even when you “don’t feel like it.” Choosing to be kind even when you know you could say something. Asking for help even when you really don’t want to. Making moment-by-moment choices to show up fully to each person and every moment--Asking, “How can I serve this person in front of me?” verses “How can I get…”. All your dreams are possible, if you do the work.

Narcissism: Self-love includes loving others. What you push against in another, becomes activated in you. You cannot find your alignment if you are judging others. You cannot find your inner peace if you are condemning others or yourself. You have the choice between the grievance or the miracle. “Your self-hate will disguise itself as self-love” –A Course In Miracles.

It is a huge shedding of self-hate to choose forgiveness verses proving your point.

Heal Your Brain—Heal Your Body and Your Mind

share intimate moments with the person you love. By enjoying your life, you are creating a healthy brain

Liz Jelinek, PhD The brain is the center of all things that take place in the body. A healthy brain is necessary for longevity, and for mental and physical health—everything starts with the brain. Until very recently, medical doctors were taught that as a person ages, so does the brain, and once the brain is damaged by trauma, poor diet, bad sleep habits, alcohol, drugs, or excessive stress, the brain cannot be regenerated. But, the latest research shows that this is no longer true—a damaged brain can be “fixed” by changes in lifestyle. New neuronal pathways that increase the brain’s capacity can be created in a variety of different ways that include meditation, exercise and a healthy diet.

The major cause of a “sick” brain is severe head injuries, but the next culprit is Artificial Sweeteners of any kind! Early brain research shows that the use of artificial sweeteners cause the brain to shrink—and with it, the ability to think clearly, and to maintain a healthy body.

To function well and be healthy—free from anxiety, depression, and other physiological and psychological stress responses, leading to physical and mental disorders, everyone should be encouraged to look in the mirror each morning, and ask if you like what you see! “Am I getting enough sleep--at least 6 hours/night? Am I using artificial sweeteners—ever? Am I exercising enough—at least 15-30 minutes every other day? How is my diet—lots of protein, veggies and fruit?

One of the early brain researchers, Dr Daniel Amen, suggests that sex is great for brain health and cell growth!

Psychologist Dr Ernest Rossi found that “Peak Experiences” grow new neuronal pathways—causing the brain to grow! So climb Mount Everest, ride the huge new roller coaster at Cedar Point and then

Bad habits cause sick brains. To protect the brain, avoid fast food, diet drinks, too little sleep, too much work, drinking too much alcohol, or using drugs [legal or otherwise]. Just because the doctor wrote a script for Oxycodone or Vicodan following an accident or surgery, does not mean they won’t hurt the brain—so get off them as quickly as possible—and avoid illegal drugs as well!

In addition to “bad” lifestyle choices that keep the brain sick, head traumas of any kind do the most damage. The past cannot be changed, but Amen, who studied NFL football players, each of whom had suffered one or more serious brain injuries while playing professional football. The brains of these football players were in the stage of advanced deterioration. Undaunted, he created a regimen for these men that included exercise, a healthy diet, proper sleep habits, and the avoidance of any substances that would contribute to further brain function loss.

Amen scanned the brains of each player before beginning the research protocols. After the trials were finished and the players had followed Amen’s procedures, he scanned each player’s brain again. The enormous differences were staggering. Significant function was restored in the previously very sick and damaged brains—the players healed their brains!

Are we in the end times?

By Wendy PowersNugent America established its independence from Britain 240 years ago this coming July 4th, 2016.

In 1776 the world was divided, most people never even traveled outside their own borders! Breaking away from British control seemed necessary as people were being religiously oppressed and were fleeing to the promised land. Some of the first settlers to start a new life on this land were the Puritans; they were not able to practice their faith and beliefs in Britain and were pretty much asked to leave as they were not following the newly reformed Church of England. Immigrants did indeed flee between 1630-1640 in what came to be known as the Great Migration, establishing this land we now call America as a place of new beginnings.

People have continually fled to America as a place to seek asylum from the tyranny, oppression, and lack of opportunity in their own land. Some were brought here unwillingly, some in desperation and of course those who had idealistic dreams of a new land. Our country has been building a melting pot of a great many different peoples and cultures, but one thing became a reality as time went on in this developing country: we became united in liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Our country now seems to have come into a new revolution, it is not even defined well enough to know what or how it will unfold. Will our country continue to grow in prosperity and hold our freedoms strong? During the last few years several of my clients have asked me about the great civil unrest and the possible all-out war that they believe we are going to eminently experience. This country has not experienced such unrest, distress and fear since the civil war. Some people are now asking our government to strip freedoms from our constitution (such as Freedom of Speech) which I believe is at the very heart of our foundation as a free nation.

Conspiracy theorist and hate groups are out in force spreading fear, hate, death and destruction, robbing us of our security, dividing people through fear and opposing the very fabric of our society, trying to strip us of our freedom and liberties. People feel that these are signs of the end times.

Many of my clients are asking questions such as: “Should I take my family and run to the hills, create a bug out house, dig in and get water purifiers and stock up on survivor food packages?”

My answer is, “No!” Listen, we all need to be more conscious of our thoughts and words and keep our intuitive guard up for the negative actions around us, but we need to combat this super anxiety trip with positive thoughts. I see a future for our country and our world. Will there be take-overs and bad things happening? Unfortunately, this is part of being on Earth going through the human experience; it’s really no different than all of the other hard times humankind has experienced on this planet. Remember, we are on Earth in this human body to experience life. Bad things happen to good people and it sometimes seems to be unfair, but experiencing this world is like going through school--there is fun, good times and bad, and sometimes unbearable disappointments and unfortunately bullies will always be playing on the same playground with us.

Speaking of the classroom of life, I’m going to my 45th class reunion this summer. Have you ever asked yourself, “Why do we want to check out people who we spent so little time with?” Well, it’s simple. As I described above we are all moving along in this life, experiencing good and bad times. We want to see how others are surviving; maybe we can share wisdom and knowledge, but most of the time it is just to hang on to innocence, hoping we will find our youth once again.

One thing I have enjoyed while getting older is an inner calm.

Like you, I have enjoyed beautiful times along with very difficult times; our souls gain enrichment and evolve to a higher level of peace. Remember, we are here hopefully to evolve our souls.

Don’t live in hate, revenge or envy and you will pass the course of life on Earth. Live in a positive thought process, be aware, be in light not darkness, and you will graduate! Happy Birthday America.

Summer Energy Boosters

By Dr. Carol Ann Fischer, D.C. with Dr. Sherry Yale, D.C. Are you tired of being tired? Boost your energy in time to enjoy America’s birthday celebration and all that summertime offers.

Sugar Balance: Large meals cause the blood sugar levels to spike, compared to a smaller meal. More blood is forced away from the brain. The body needs all the blood diverted to the digestive tract to handle the large intake of food. This causes you to feel listless and less alert after a big meal.

Maintain healthy blood sugar levels by eating small frequent meals spread evenly throughout the day. Avoid eating excess refined carbohydrates and sugars. Sugar can cause a temporary energy boost, but it is as short lived as the beauty of a firework on the 4th of July. You should eat a mix of complex carbohydrates, good fats and protein.

Fiber Fuel: Make sure you have enough fiber and protein in your diet. Fiber helps to prevent you from feeling sluggish and constipated. Eating protein helps to feed your muscles and keeps them strong. Your diet should be composed of fresh organic whole foods.

Wendy Powers-Nugent is not only a renowned clairvoyant, she is also an ordained minister, wedding officiant, teacher, public speaker, radio talk show host on BMSR and writer for “Body Mind Spirit Guide”

Key Nutrients: Incorporate foods that are rich in the B vitamins. Your body needs the nutrients from organic whole foods for digestion and to generate energy.

Vitamin B: Taking non-food sources of B vitamins and eating too many carbohydrates and sugars can result in a Vitamin B complex deficiency. Your body has to use stored B Vitamin reserves to metabolize sugars. A dietary imbalance of carbohydrates, sugars and proteins can cause a Vitamin B complex deficiency.

Foods high in the whole Vitamin B complex include grains such as brown rice, millet, and wheat germ. Other foods include brewer’s yeast, rice bran, molasses, eggs, lean meats, liver, peas, broccoli and leafy green vegetables.

Nuts and seeds are also high in the whole food B complex.

These include almonds, pecans, pistachios, peanuts, cashews, whole sesame seeds and sunflower seeds. If you do not get sufficient quantities of these foods in your diet daily, fatigue can be the result.

If you need help, there are simple non-invasive tests that can be performed to easily determine if your fatigue is related to dehydration, protein deficiency, or Vitamin B deficiency.

These tests are done routinely during most consultations with a holistic wellness physician who is trained in nutrition and the hidden signs of vitamin deficiencies.

Healing the Collective Sexual Shadow We’ve taken so many important steps forward to create a world aligned with the values of equality, inclusion, and acceptance. Powerful social movements (i.e. civil rights, women’s rights, children’s rights, anti-bullying, etc.) have helped open people’s minds and hearts to seeing all people with eyes of love, instead of acting from a place of prejudice based on race, gender, color, age, sex, etc. With deepest gratitude for how far we’ve come, there are places of fear and separation with the collective consciousness that are calling for even more of our attention and awareness.

One area where fear-based beliefs are prevalent is in the realm of human sexuality. In a world where heteronormative values are dominant, there is a belief that heterosexuality is the only appropriate sexual orientation, and that sexual relationships are only suitable among people of opposite sexes. Since heterosexuality is seen as the superior and “normal” sexual orientation, this marginalizes people who do not fit into these heterosexual norms.

This fear-based belief is reinforced by businesses, organizations, the media, and social institutions, such as organized religion.

Since sexual expression is one of the core ways we form our self concept, it is extremely damaging to teach people that their unique sexual identity and form of sexual expression is wrong unless it is aligns with heterosexuality. Our core need as humans is to belong and to feel connected to others, so these fearbased teachings often leads to immense guilt, shame, and self-hatred for those individuals who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered.

This belief system, rooted in separation and judgment, teaches people that unless their sexuality is expressed in a very specific heterosexual way, they don’t belong and that an integral part

of them is defective. This is extremely damaging to a person’s self-esteem, as evidenced by the fact that lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth are 4 times more likely to attempt suicide as their straight peers. This heartbreaking statistic shows the depth of suffering caused by belief systems that teach people there is something is wrong with a fundamental part of who they are.

as a call for healing one of the deepest wounds in the human psyche.

Our sexuality is a central part of being human. It can be mysterious, confusing, exciting, frightening, comforting, disappointing, pleasurable, liberating, and so on. It’s complex! Instead of believing the pervasive, fear-based beliefs about sexuality that many of us have been taught, or getting hooked in to the sexual shame and guilt that is inherent in the dominant culture, let’s choose something different and be curious together.

May we continue co-creating a world where the human rights of all people are honored and upheld, and the diversity of human sexuality is embraced. May all expressions of fear and hatred directed towards our LBGTQ brothers and sisters bring more awareness to the need for healing the shadow aspects of human sexuality. May the institutions that perpetuate shamebased beliefs understand the depth of their impact. May these false beliefs regarding sexuality fall away, and may they be replaced by beliefs aligned with inclusion, freedom, acceptance, and connection. And may we all be held and guided by compassion, for ourselves and others, as we continue on this journey from fear to love.

What would this world be like if all people felt supported and loved as they discovered their own unique expression of sexuality? What if we all lived in a home, community, and world that embraced the diversity and wholeness of human sexuality, and supported our journey of finding our own unique expression of sexuality and sexual identity? In a world like this, people would have a much better chance at feeling positive about who they are as a person and feeling like they belonged.

This kind of freedom to express one’s authentic self, and to feel accepted and loved in this expression, could radically transform and transmute the tremendous depth of sexual shame that exists within the collective consciousness.

We are all members of the human family. We all belong. We all have a right to discover who we are and how we want to express ourselves. We all deserve to feel supported as we find our way and discover our own unique sexual identity and how that essential part of us will be expressed.

What affects one of us, affects us all.

Knowing that so many people suffer because of these outdated, fear-based beliefs regarding sexuality, we are called to bring even more attention and awareness to the need for a world where people are free to explore and discover their own unique ways of expressing the diversity of human sexuality. We can see the pain experienced by so many

Feeling overwhelmed; Getting the job done

your way, take big deep breaths and know it will all be okay.

Change your approach, if at first you don’t succeed, try again, this time from a ‘Win-Win’ perspective.

By Abby Lippitt I know, I know, I’ve been there too. You’ve just got too much to do; how will you ever get through? Panic and fears are overwhelming you, there are just too many demands on you. Others say, “Don’t worry, it’s a cinch. What’s the matter with you?”

Well, you know that isn’t always so, but here’s some ideas that will help with your work flow. Take it easy, relax and play. Don’t always take yourself so seriously. Make it your plan to enjoy what you do today.

Remember, you have the skills to do this, if not, take a look at what you’ve done before. See how good you were then, and you’ll know that you can do it again.

Feel the love for what you are doing.

This is not a chore or a test. It’s fun at its very best.

RELIGIONSPIRITUALITY Is Only One Correct?

By Ray Fraser Two topics that are generally considered “off-limits” are politics and religion. Religion has been in the forefront recently, because of the great amount of uncertainty concerning the religion of Islam. Many discussions center on the tenets of their teachings. Is it a peaceful or violent religion? People on both sides have opinions, and of course, they are willing to defend their positions as long as necessary. When I studied for the ministry Islam was a quiet religion, so we didn’t discuss it as much as some of the more traditional religions. In short, I don’t know a great deal about it; I do have several Muslim friends and many Muslim clients, none of whom are violent in any way. Like all religions, they simply want a full and peaceful life, a nice home and a happy family.

I find it odd to try and place my Muslim friends in the category of enemies. The truth is, they have helped me out when

no others would. This article is not about Islam, it’s about religion in general and the concept of spirituality.

I was a practicing Christian for 30 years, and at one time I desired to be a Christian minister. At the age of 30, I was introduced to the concept of spirituality, and the religion of spiritualism. The two are quite different. Since then, I have studied our traditional religions.

Here are some of my findings: What we call ‘organized religions’ were created by man for man, there were no heavenly edicts which prompted their origin. Each is established with a unique set of rules or laws (tenets) which practitioners must follow, and a governing body which is set along a hierarchy similar to politics with one person in charge, and a supportive series of subordinates. Most have established punitive guidelines for those who stray outside the rules. A significant effort is exerted to tie the punishment to some teaching from the Bible, though most fail at making that connection. In the end, punishment is established by a president, or members of a board of governors who unite in an ‘opinion’ about the gravity of the wrong ‘sin’ and the appropriate punishment.

At first, I thought that the religion of Spiritualism would be different, but I was wrong. There is as much ego, jealousy, cronyism and backstabbing there as with the larger more established religions. My personal philosophy involves the concept of spirituality. This is not a religion; it is a way of life. It is governed by me, and my innate understanding of integrity and right

40 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

and wrong. It’s based on the concept that everything that is considered a sin is based on conscious thought. In other words a decision is made to break the universal laws and standards regardless of the consequences. It means that WE have to assume responsibility for our own actions, and can’t beg forgiveness from anyone but God. It means that we must acknowledge that we did the ‘crime’ and that we are willing to accept the retribution which it might bring. Having a one-on-one relationship with God is the only answer to keeping life on the right track. Think I’m wrong? Name one of the Ten Commandments that you can break by accident.

So, you’ll note the positive necessity of having God in your life, but also, the need to take responsibility for your actions and clean-up your own life.

Integrity is about doing the right thing even when no one is watching; as events arise, before acting, we must ask ourselves, Is this the right thing to do? If we have decided poorly, we must remember that the law of retribution will step in to set things right. This law states that we receive back what we give out, good or bad, ten times greater than what we gave out. Good deeds bring amazing results, bad deeds, not so much. Religion or spirituality, right?

The only correct answer is that we need them both. Take charge of your life, but remember that God is a loving father who is ready to help us at any time.

Envision a Better Tomorrow

By Susan deCaussin I envision a day …. when we will all view each other with our souls, for the energy we emit, and not for the wrapper that contains us in this physical existence.

I envision a day …. when words won’t be necessary to communicate our thoughts and needs and we will instinctively know how to energetically convey joy, comfort, respect and assistance to everyone who crosses our path.

I envision a day …. when, instead of working for money, everyone will simply follow their heart to do what brings them joy, and collectively our needs will all be met, as everyone graciously and lovingly shares their talents and the fruits of their labors with each other.

Why do you think you are here?

Where do you think you came from?

Where do you think you are going when you leave this earth?

Spiritual Horoscopes Cancer (June 21 – July 22) — Happy birthday Cancer! Declare to the Universe what you want to manifest — but before you do, examine what blocks you from receiving your wishes. It’s easy to blame someone else, especially your relationship partner, but meditate to see if old beliefs are stopping your bliss. Blast through those limitations, then state your birthright with clarity and watch it flow in!

It’s also a great prosperity month!

Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) — Remember your body believes every word you say, so observe your statements and see how they reflect on your health. (Such as, “I can’t stand this”, and then you have knee or lower back problems.) If you have challenges with family members, try doing fun activities together that you both love. Edginess abates and communication flows. If single, you can start a new relationship, or a current one feels refreshed and delightful.

Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) — Be aware that fear of intimacy can make you critical of those you love, as a protective mechanism. Meditate to see how you can push people away when you actually want them close, leading to lots of confusion. Tell people you love them and that you’re working on yourself. Be extra kind to yourself, since you’re the biggest target of your barbs! Also, you make uplifting new friends who bring out your best as you heal and grow.

Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) — Libra craves balance, but can be addicted to non-balance. Awesome things happen in goals, career and relationships, but watch how you find the one unfulfilled area and feel bad in the midst of so much good! Meditate on gratitude and get comfortable with joy. It’s ironic you’re uncomfortable with harmony, but you’ll really grow when you’re aware of and heal the undercurrent of stress you’re accustomed to feeling. Let go of feeling you need to fix life and just enjoy it!

Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) — Focus on prosperity affirmations and watch them come true in career and finances!

Also, don’t speak harsh words about

your relationship, or talk negatively about love possibilities if single. Meditate to let go of limiting beliefs and put thought to what you want to believe. Your mind has so much power, so put it to work for you in the right direction! Also, this positivity unleashes healing energy for your body.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) — Like Scorpio pals who need to speak positively about love, you need to speak and think abundantly about money!

If partnered, team up for meditations that visualize what you both want to manifest, and don’t be afraid to be specific about amounts and timing.

Forgive money issues such as people who borrowed from you and never paid back, or times you had to borrow from others. Also release past love betrayals since astrologically, trust issues link with finances.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) — Like your Virgo friends, you’re challenged to not push intimacy away. Meditate on your lovableness. You deserve affection, comfort and commitment — from others and from yourself! Now you can receive what’s being offered. Changing your house around opens up your mind.

By shaking up your daily environment, even in small ways, you’ll trigger new “quantum realities”. Also, breakthroughs with money happen late July.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) — Relationships are healing in major ways!

And if single, you can start a wonderful connection. Watch out for being busy with dumb things to fend off intimacy.

Meditate on your heart opening. Envision receiving love so you don’t feel awkward in “real life” when it comes at you! You might have a friend who needs a boost believing they’ll find love. You can help by gently pointing out limiting ideas that block love, now that you’ve healed yours.

Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) — Speak kindly to your body if you have physical or emotional issues. Use positive affirmations and also say “No!” to negative ideas or uncomfortable symptoms. Let your body know that your brain is in charge. Your moods will shift

42 w w w. b o d y m i n d s p i r i t g u i d e . c o m

and your entire being will feel protected and safe. Now healing is inevitable!

Interesting solutions to money problems also arise as your mind relaxes. Don’t make relationship decisions until you feel peaceful and centered.

Aries (March 21 – April 19) — Uranus turns retrograde in your sign, which can make you edgy and impatient. But if you meditate and reflect, you’ll see glitches in your plans. Going slower at this time helps correct mistakes before they happen. In general, ask the Universe to show you new ways to approach relationships and work. Also be open to different ideas about yourself and your identity. Exciting changes will unfold now through the rest of the year!

Taurus (April 20 – May 20) — What beliefs are in the way of truly enjoying life? Journal about these ideas and then meditate on them, asking yourself, “What would it be like if I didn’t believe this was true?” Then create new concepts that would make you feel joyous and fulfilled and meditate on that possible reality.

With quantum Uranus turning retrograde you can live from new possibilities and change your world! Tell a trusted friend about the changes you’re making so that you can have the support you need to live from your future truth!

Gemini (May 21 – June 20) — Affirmations are awesome, but for them to work, you need to say a strong “No!” to dissolve limiting beliefs that block good stuff. This is especially true with financial ideas and with emotional/sexual intimacy issues and fear of betrayal.

Tearing down the old structure of thought lets you rebuild on solid ground. New relationships come in or current ones greatly improve. Money abundance flows in, too!

By Amy Garber As the date approached for the Biannual Holistic & Psychic Expo hosted

by Intuitives Interactive on June 4–5, we excitedly anticipated what our hard work may bring! Several important changes were implemented that we hoped would be well received.

Chief among the changes was the expansion from a one-day fair to a twoday Expo. Our intention was to allow more people to attend on the second day who may have had other commitments on the first day. Also, many vendors had indicated that they preferred a two-day event, because their efforts to load in, set up, pack up, and load out are spread over two days.

Indeed, we heard from numerous attendees who had a graduation party or other commitments that weekend, but could still attend the Expo because of our expanded schedule. We also extended the hours on Saturday until 8pm, which helped people visit the Expo even if they had work or other commitments earlier that day.

This 4th year for the Expo also saw a move to a new venue, Eastern Michigan University’s Student Center in Ypsilanti.

We knew this was a risk because our previous six fairs had all been held in Ann Arbor. However, the change was necessary to allow us to hold the Expo on both Saturday and Sunday.

Everyone — from readers and vendors to volunteers and attendees — told us how much they loved the spacious, beautiful building, built in 2004 with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking a man-made pond. The main part of the Expo, held in the cavernous ballroom, allowed larger booths for the vendors and bodyworkers. And the vegetarian and healthy food options at the Green Market Bistro on the lower level were very popular too!

The smaller ballroom back room was perfect to use as our Reader Room, where two dozen readers of all types met with clients in a more private, intimate setting than most psychic fairs offer.

The 20-minute readings for $30 made it possible to see several different readers during the day, while our Reader Room

concierge service helped people get to their readings on time.

The 250-seat auditorium, with its professional equipment, allowed more people to enjoy the ten presentations over the two days (free with Expo

The mix of vendors was eclectic as usual, with some coming from far points in Michigan as well as Ohio and Indiana.

For the first time, readings were allowed at the vendor tables, and a dozen booths offered readings in addition to other products. Also, six bodyworkers offered deep physical and energy healing sessions with intuitive insights. One attendee told us that the event was “lifechanging”!

All this leads us to conclude that the changes to our Expo were successful!

Mark your calendars — our 4th Annual Fall Holistic & Psychic Expo is at Eastern Michigan University on October 8-9. We invite you to get involved by applying for a 3-hour volunteer shift (there are may perks, along with the satisfaction of putting on an amazing event with other like-minded folks!). Online registration is also open for those applying to be a vendor, reader, or bodyworker. Or, just plan to attend and purchase an advance daily pass or weekend pass online.
