Our Founding Vision… “I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about beneath me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw; for I was seeing in a sacred manner the shapes of all things in the spirit, and the shape of all shapes as they must live together like one being. And I saw that the sacred hoop of my people was one of many hoops that made one circle, wide as daylight and as starlight, and in the center grew one mighty flowering tree to shelter all children of one mother and one father. And I saw that it was holy.”
Black Elk’s Vision (1862 - 1950) Our Beliefs... We believe all people are One! And that this great truth lies deep within each person’s heart! We dedicate the Guide to the One Mother and the One Father and their children (you and I)!

Avatars and Gods Who Came To Earth – Part I International best selling author Richard Lawrence believes we have been visited by cosmic intelligences throughout our history. Among them, he says, are some of the greatest spiritual icons ever to be born upon Earth. Here he reveals the cosmic plan behind the coming to Earth of these avatars and gods from past millennia up to the present day. “You shall behold your brothers in the celestial region. They have reached it before you. Indeed, you shall see all of them there, with Krishna.” These words were spoken by the god, Indra, according to the ancient Hindu text, The Mahabharata, when he invited King Yudhishthira to travel with him on a space vehicle (vimana in Sanskrit) which “ascended quickly, causing the entire sky
to blaze”. This is surely a clear indication that the avatar or divine incarnation, Sri Krishna, was in fact a cosmic intelligence. Thousands of years later, another bright light was seen moving across the sky by three learned men. It led them to a stable in Bethlehem where, according to scripture, Jesus was born. It is little wonder that “they rejoiced with exceeding great joy” according to The Bible, because they believed that this was the coming of the son of God. And so, a being who epitomized the very essence of true love, walked the Earth. Another son of God – or Zeus as he was referred to in ancient Greece – was Heracles. He lived at a time when, according to the Roman poet Catullus, “The sky-dwellers in person used to visit the stainless homes of heroes and be seen at mortal gatherings”. Stripping away the superstition from the myth and the sentimentality from the Hollywood legend, we
are left with a superhuman figure in both physique and character, who would be revered for centuries to come. The superhuman qualities of Sri Sankaracharya were evident too. From his early childhood in eighth century India, so outstanding were his spiritual and mental faculties that he became a teacher, with devoted disciples, at the age of only 12 years old. Throughout his life he studied, realized, taught and lived the wisdom of the Rishis, the enlightened Masters who inspired the ancient Hindu scriptures. Even before his birth, his parents had been prepared for his coming by the god, Shiva who appeared to them both in a dream. Centuries later in a different region of India, another parent was prepared in a dream for a divine birth, this time by the god, Vishnu. Just as Joseph had dreamt that he had received a sacred visit before the birth of Jesus, so too did the father of the Hindu saint Sri Ramakrishna, who would enter the highest states of con-

sciousness that is possible to attain upon Earth, and become the guru of the great Swami Vivekananda among others. There is a pattern of divine revelations surrounding the coming of an avatar or god. The Virgin Mary was contacted directly by an angel of the Lord before she conceived, as was the mother of Samson who had been considered infertile. Despite this, she was told to prepare for the incarnation of a son with a mission from above. Like Heracles, Samson would combine phenomenal strength with complete devotion to his holy task. It is written that the mother of the Lord Buddha, Queen Maya, also dreamt that his would be a divine birth. So concerned was her husband, that his son would pursue the spiritual destiny which had been foretold by his court astrologers, that he tried to shield him from all contact with human suffering. He failed to do so and his god-like son went on to demonstrate and teach one of the greatest paths of freedom from personal suffering through peace and enlightenment which has ever been given to Earth. At another court in an earlier time, a Hebrew child was raised by the Pharoah’s daughter after being rescued from a river. He too would discover the suffering of his fellow man and fulfill a mission of salvation under the direction of divine guidance. The exodus led by Moses was accompanied and assisted, we are told, by objects seen in the sky. These were given various descriptions in The Bible including clouds, but they were no ordinary clouds. Scripture records that the Lord and even Moses traveled in them, just as Jesus would do later – another indication of the cosmic origins of such divine emissaries. Little, if anything, is known for certain about the birth of some, such as the Chinese sages Lao Tzu and Confucius, and the father of Raja Yoga, Sri Patanjali. Others may have lived upon this planet without any public recognition or knowledge to perform their prescribed APRIL 2015
tasks. But they could all be described as avatars or gods, born through the wombs of Earth women, for a divinely-ordained purpose which was required at a particular time and place.

More Than a Feeling
and simple carbohydrates and taking a good probiotic and enjoying pleasurable exercise. You can improve your physical health and diminish candida and other immune diseases by choosing to actively love yourself and your life instead of stuffing your negative feelings. Make yourself a priority and seek out the core of truth and love within you.
Love is a choice, not just a feeling. Sometimes it is an easy choice and sometimes it is difficult, but it is always the right choice. Whether romantic love, friendship or family love, how lovingly do you treat yourself when you don’t live up to your ideals or how you respond when frustrated or fearful; love is not just an emotional experience, it is a choice to stand in your truth and your power. Mature love is unconditional love and it is an ideal we are discovering more and more as we collectively ascend into greater harmony with our true spiritual root in the Oneness of Life. You can read more about ascension in my soon to be released book, Riding the Wave of Change – Hope, Healing and Spiritual Growth for our World. So today, I will continue writing about love. Within you is a core of unconditional love which is your personal facet of The All That Is, or God. When you choose to respond to circumstances with love, even when the situation does the opposite of evoking a warm feeling in you, you are accessing your inner truth and strengthening it. But you also need to embrace your less than loving feelings. Stuffing negative feelings and acting nice is a recipe for self-destruction. It causes your immune system to fight with you, rather than for you and can open the door to potentials for anxiety, depression, heart disease, cancer and immune diseases. Love others, but be equally loving of yourself. Life is calling us to choose love across the board. One common issue that can be stimulated by stuffing your feelings is an overgrowth of candida. Often called yeast, it not only creates bladder and vaginal infections, but can spread throughout a person’s body creating a myriad of confusing and debilitating physical symptoms. You can improve your state of mind by improving your diet, diminishing your intake of sweets APRIL 2015
How do you act from a place of love when you are not feeling love, without stuffing your feelings? You access the love present at your true core. Your inner love can join with the love which is an eternal presence within every aspect of life, regardless of how unloving life can appear. Unconditional love doesn’t require warm feelings; it is a way of respecting all of life, including yourself. It allows for anger and hatred, it doesn’t repress them, but requires you to take a moment to choose whether to act with love or not. Taking time to make this choice before you act, allows you to open to the core of love within you. You can allow love from your core to flow through and around the negative feelings, so you can express kindness and caring despite them. In the process love softens the negative feelings so they can dissipate. It will also allow you to apologize when you express in hurtful ways and to make a new choice. Unconditional love forgives you for having feelings of fear, hatred, anger, blame, judgment, impatience, frustration and even for acting on them. It allows you to choose again; to heal and forgive yourself and the situations which are difficult for you. It invites you to trust life in each present situation and moment, because trust is the beginning of unconditional love. Life has a purpose for you in each circumstance, trust that. When you do, unconditional love within you will carry you through difficulties to an experience of grace, where the most difficult things can work out optimally. Unconditional love supports you to be very strong where needed; to say no, to disagree, to stand up to a
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
situation where it feels necessary and true to do so. It also allows you to back down and choose to walk away when you feel that it isn’t your job to respond or try to correct the problems. There is an intelligence in your inner core of truth which helps you to choose how to respond for the highest good. Learn to listen to it and to trust yourself. It won’t lead you wrong. Mature, unconditional love is the most powerful force on the planet. It is the essence of truth of God. When we join the true core of love within us with the love of God within our circumstances it creates order and heals our lives. When many of us choose love, it heals our world.

Ida Rolf’s Vision an Fascia
es. This was a frustrating time for her as most of these physicians would just take a small piece of her work to add to their repertoire without grasping the context and larger vision she had.
(part two) When we left Ida Rolf (in the first part of this three part series), we found her drawing upon her scientific and metaphysical backgrounds, and “test driving” her new structural model of body- work sessions she called, Structural Integration (AKA Rolfing). Another thread that nourished these early beginnings was Dr. Rolf’s serious and longtime study of hatha yoga. One of her earliest ways of working with clients was to put them in yoga asanas or postures and noticing where they were restricted or prevented from completing the posture. She would apply her hands or an elbow into those restricted sheets of fascia (connective tissue) and manipulate them to get that fascia to lengthen. There are a number of areas in which the results and goals of Structural Integration and yoga overlap, including better posture, deeper breathing and greater flexibility. Often, yoga instructors will get “Rolfed” in order to accomplish the yoga postures they find challenging, and end up suggesting that their students also experience this work. By the late 1940s, Ida Rolf began to teach others the work that she had developed. She traveled around England and the United States teaching “out of a suitcase”. Mostly, it was Chiropractors and Osteopaths who came to her class-
As she refined her work, she was checking for the real world results her clients were getting, while always contemplating the interaction between Gravity and Fascia. About gravity she said, “Some individuals may perceive their losing fight with gravity as a sharp pain in their back, others as the unflattering contour of their body, others as constant fatigue, yet others as an unrelentingly threatening environment. Those over forty may call it old age. And yet, all these signals may be pointing to a single problem so prominent in their own structure, as well as others, that it has been ignored: they are off balance, they are at war with gravity.” She knew that fascia/connective tissue wrapped around every muscle and muscle group like a body-stocking, but she also knew that “Fascia is the organ of posture. The body is a web of fascia. A spider web is in a plane. This web is in a sphere. We can trace the lines of that web to get an understanding of how what we see in the body works.” This understanding gave her a great appreciation of architect and meta thinker, Buckminster Fuller and his geodesic domes. His “domes” incorporated a design concept called “tensegrity” that did not rely on “brick on brick compressive forces” to provide weight bearing structures; in its place he created self-supporting tensional structures. In a somewhat similar manner, Ida knew that if the body’s fascial web could be
10 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
APRIL 2015
rehydrated and properly “spanned” the skeletal system would no longer be weight bearing and bones would function as spacers in a sea of fascia. In 1964 Fritz Perls, the founder of Gestalt Therapy, invited Ida Rolf to come to the Esalen Institute in Big Sur California, which was at the very center of the human growth and transformation movement. Fritz Perls understood that unresolved negative emotions lived in peoples flesh and postures and besides that, he wanted relief from his own aches and pains. As Dr. Rolf took Perls through the Rolfing series, word spread through Esalen about this amazing work and soon there was a growing number of students who wanted to learn everything Ida Rolf envisioned. One day Dr. Rolf arrived at one of the classes she was teaching “under a full head of steam” and told her students that “there is a rumor going around Esalen that Ida Rolf does not believe in the soul or spirit ….that is poppycock…...it’s just right now the body is the only thing I can get my hands on.” In the last part of this 3 part series we will look in as Ida Rolf establishes her school in Boulder Colorado.

Food of the Month: Tempting Tempeh Tempeh is by far, one of my favorite foods. It is so versatile, you can use it in many different dishes. Having no taste right out of the package, it will take on whatever taste you choose. It acts like a big sponge and will absorb flavors. Many vegetarians use it as a meat substitute. When you crumble tempeh it resembles ground meat in texture. Tempeh is soybeans that have been cooked and fermented. The fermenting process is important because fermented food is very easy to digest. Fermenting the tempeh makes the phytonutrients more concentrated and more bioavailable as well. Soybeans are very high in protein, and contain calcium, B vitamins, manganese, phosphorus, and magnesium. Soybeans are considered a complete protein, as they contain all 8 essential amino acids. When people first change their diet and ask me about certain foods, I always tell them to ask themselves this simple question, “How long has the human species been eating this food?” If it has been thousands of years, you can bet it is a healthy food for you to eat. Soybeans were a crucial crop in East Asia before written history. Origins of soybean cultivation remains scientifically debated. Recent research indicates that seedlings of wild forms started early (before 5000 BCE) in multiple locations throughout China, Korea and Japan. The process of fermenting the soybean and making tempeh originated in Indonesia before the 16th century. Here is a great, tasty dish featuring tempeh. Stuffed Collard Greens 1/2 cup short grain brown rice 3 shiitake mushrooms

1 cup water 1 (8oz.) package tempeh (crumbled) olive oil, tamari 2 tsp. thyme 1/2 tsp. paprika 1/4 tsp. turmeric 5 scallions (sliced thin) 1 cup grated sweet potato 1 cup grated daikon 1 bunch collard greens olive oil, brown rice vinegar, sea salt 3 T. water Put rice, shiitake mushrooms and water in a pot. Bring to a boil. Let open boil for a couple minutes. Reduce to lowest possible temperature, cover and pot boil for one hour. Once rice is done, remove shiitake mushrooms, cut in thin slices, removing and discarding the stems. Sauté the tempeh in some olive oil and tamari until starting to brown. Add the thyme, paprika and turmeric at the last minute of sautéing. Remove the tempeh and place in a large bowl. Using the same pan, sauté each of the vegetables, scallions, sweet potato, and daikon, one at a time. Season with a little olive oil and tamari as you sauté. Add to the tempeh the sautéed vegetables and cooked rice. Mix all together. Steam the collard greens whole for 5 minutes, until they are bright green and soft. Remove the bottom part of the stems. Take a spoonful of the stuffing, place on bottom of collard leaf. Roll the bottom up, and the sides in, like rolling a grape leaf. Continue to stuff and roll all the leaves. Place them in a casserole dish. Drizzle some olive oil and brown rice vinegar over the top. Sprinkle a little sea salt over the top. Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Let sit 5 minutes before serving. Valerie Wilson is a chef, author, counselor, and host of “Healthy Cooking with Macro Val” on BMSRadio. She teaches macrobiotic, vegan cooking classes in Westland.

Into the Light, Part II (How to help a spirit move into the light) When we pass on, we don’t always go into the light; I know this because of my own death experience in 1986. Personally, my experience at first upset me because I did not see a tunnel filled with loving light. Instead, I floated to the ceiling of my hospital room where three glowing orbs hovered, not letting me move upward out of the room. The Orbs then communicated a great deal of information, then sent me back into my dead body. When I opened my eyes, my doctor stood over me surprised, as he had already called my time of death. This is a bit of a complicated and lengthy story to share in this short article, but I am in the process of writing a book that will be out sometime later this year. Sharing with you my personal experience in this article is to help you better understand that not only am I blessed as a psychic to see the dead, (mediumship) but I also experienced it first-hand. Time loops: There are souls that seem to be caught-up in time loops which
may be just residual energy of the soul, and can mislead you into believing they are trapped and are re-running over and over again a segment of time --reliving an event usually just prior to their death. When I went to Gettysburg, PA, I saw Civil War soldiers running around fields, ducking behind sand bags, it was like watching a movie, but there is no way any of them knew I was there or could be helped into the light as their souls were not connected to the fathom energy left behind. Usually, the best way to help clear the fathom spirit is to smudge the area clearing the energy, much like you would smudge a home to clear the residual energy left behind by previous owners. Caught between dimensions: Souls can be caught inbetween dimensions of time and space; this can happen when people have died in war, or by the hand of another or by an accident. Usually, they are trying to reach out to whoever will help them find their bodies or solve the circumstances of their death. As there is no time as we understand it in the spirit dimension, they can wander for years hoping to be found or heard. Often, we see these souls as ghosts -- they can be in houses, prisons, fields, forests, buildings even on shores of lakes -- it just depends on where they lost their lives.

Ghost hunting (I would prefer, Ghost awareness) has become very popular, and often the teams looking for these souls run into fathom spirits, such as those souls caught in a time loop, or real spirits needing to communicate their plight to someone. You know the difference immediately as they will actually try to communicate. You may hear them call out their name or cry out how they died. These souls will respond to direct communication through either a medium or someone who has no fear of them, and who will listen and translate the circumstance of their situation. After they feel that you received their message, they may move into the light. Always send them into the light with a prayer for their soul to be at peace. Spirit transitions: When we lose a loved one, whether it is to tragic death, natural causes or after they fought an illness for a while, they may feel a need to stay close to the loved ones they left behind. Sometimes souls may decide to stay behind and watch over their loved ones. Many of these spirits will wait until the one they were close to passes on, so that they can guide them into the light. Often you see this with soul mates. I have seen the spirit of children who had untimely deaths cling to the parents, trying to comfort them. They may find comfort living in the spirit dimension being around the family for many years before deciding to move on. Remember that being in this spiritual dimension can be filled with love and happiness for them, as they enjoy the family’s experiences. Best to always reach out to these souls by talking with them and sending prayers every day, always surrounding them with love. Some just want to send you a message; when they feel you’ve received it, they may be ready to move into the light. You can help them by lighting a white candle and then ask them to move into the light, releasing their soul into the protection and love of God. Each situation is unique so you would have to design a special message or prayer as you send them into the light.

Water – Could this be the key to good health? We are in the midst of a health crisis. Many of our diets have taken a turn for the worse, depriving us of the necessary nutrients that support a healthy lifestyle. Whether it’s battling cancer, chronic disease, or even the common cold, our diets rarely meet the nutritional standards our bodies need to thrive. But there is one component of our diet that can help us fight disease and gain better health, water. Not all water is the same; in fact, drinking the right kind of water can help balance our body’s pH levels, reduce our chances of degenerative disease and contribute to our overall wellness. If water plays such a significant role in maintaining our body’s health, isn’t it time we know what we are drinking? So what kind of water are you drinking today? Bottled, tap, well, reverse osmosis (RO), distilled or spring water? Americans are fortunate to have many choices of water, but so many options bring additional concerns. Bottled water recently was shown to have over 24,500 chemicals in a research report out of Germany. Some of these chemicals are known endocrine disrupters. Distilled and RO waters in many cases remove the healthy minerals our bodies require, creating more acid overload to our tissues. Are we in Acid Overload? Today, Americans feast on acid forming foods for an average of 70% of their food intake. Some of these foods including beverages such as soda, flavored waters and even bottled waters, increase acidity levels in the body. Research also shows that when the body becomes acidic, the chances of disease increase significantly including diabetes, heart disease and cancer. Some Physicians have theorized that cancer cells thrive in an acidic environment, but can’t survive in an Oxygen rich Alkaline environment. Rebalancing our acid intake to more alkaline forming foods and avoiding highly acidic beverages such as soda and sports drinks could have a profound effect on our overall health. Most of us would argue that water is water. Outside of the pH levels (the amount of oxygen versus the amount of acid) it is also the STRUCTURE of our water that plays an important role in our health. Water derived from natural sources such as glacial and mountain streams have been shown to have a different structure than bottled or tap water. In fact, Ionized Alkaline water recreates and mimics the same structure found in glacial water. Some of the greatest benefits of this natural water structure is that it allows for the easy removal of acidic waste from our cells and increases hydration. Not a bad trade for just one glass of water. In fact, the structure of water may be the most important factor in determining the ability for our cells to be properly hydrated. One of the keys to reducing inflammation in the body is the Anti-Oxidant. Its nemesis; the Free Radical actively works to destroy healthy cells in the body, while our Anti-Oxidants work to reduce them. Tap water, distilled water, even bottled water can be sources of Free Radicals. Soda pop and so-called healthy sports drinks are another big source of free radicals in the body. There is a solution -- Ionized Alkaline water

(ERW). Proven to be one of the best sources of Free Radical scavengers around, ERW drinkers have reported reduced pain from Arthritis, lactic acid buildup and many more common diseases centered on inflammation. Scientists, Physicians and Health advocates mostly agree, the pH level of our cells play a major role in determining the overall health of our body. However, just drinking pH balanced water does not guarantee a change at the cellular level. Consider the restructured properties of Ionized water as a key component. Ionized Alkaline Water is the water that works with your body, not against it. Most comparisons of Ionized Alkaline Water show this to be more cost effective than bottled waters. As we strive for better health and nutrition, it’s important that we account for water’s role and vital impact. As consumers, we have the chance to make a healthier choice by adding Ionized Alkaline Water into our diets. It’s one simple change, one that could potentially change your life.

Cell Phone Sizzle
A little history--cell phones are the offspring of old-style radio transceivers. Transceivers allowed not only listening but exchanging words as well. There was a problem with the early ones where the operators would become ill after running the units for awhile. It became known as radio sickness, believed to have resulted from the unshielded high energy of the device altering a person’s health. During my years of electrical engineering studies and in the years since then, I have watched the evolution of these early devices turn into the amazing instruments of today.
Sizzle is the sound we should probably hear when putting our cell phones to our ears. The cell phone is a technological wonder which would’ve made even the green-blooded Mr. Spock of Star Trek fame even greener with envy. The cell phone appears to be a safe piece of technology, but it has a dark side. One of the problems when it comes to understanding this dark side—the dangers of cell phone usage--is that studies are often hard to find and decipher. So rather than relying on studies, let’s be sensible; cell phones work using microwave radio frequencies which expose us to electromagnetic radiation. Isn’t it somewhat of a nobrainer to think that being that exposed to electromagnetic radiation transmitted through our cell phone or other wireless devices could be detrimental to our health? SAR testing refers to Specific Absorption Rate which is a measure of the rate of RF (radio frequency) energy absorption by the body from the source being measured, such as a cell phone. The SAR value for FCC approval does not account for the multitude of measurements taken during testing and the fact that phones vary in their power. The bottom line is that FCC government guidelines suggest holding cell phones away from the head or body and to use a speakerphone or hands free accessory in order to reduce exposure. Since a great number of people in today’s society--including teenagers and young children--spend so much time talking on cell phones, playing games on them, or using them for business, I’m concerned with what we may be dealing with in the future when it comes to cancers and other diseases correlated with radiation exposure. It’s also been shown that electromagnetic radiation disrupts DNA, so another concern is
the potential for causing harm to future generations. For these reasons, I believe that warnings should be on these devices in large print so users know the importance of taking precautions when enjoying the conveniences provided by these modern marvels. An experience that made me think about the dangers of cell phones took place a number of years ago after I had upgraded to a new phone which came with a holster to wear on my hip. After wearing my new phone for several weeks, I became aware of a pain in my right hip where I was wearing it. I kept bumping the phone into things anyway, so I moved it to my left hip. Amazingly, the pain in my right hip went away but soon I noticed a pain in my left hip where I had moved the phone. Shortly afterwards, I spent time on a ship in midocean where there were no cell towers. In spite of my heightened level of activity, I did not have any hip pain. I attributed this fantastic recovery to the salty air and sunshine. The problem was that when I returned to shore and put the phone back on my hip, the pain returned. This is when I started looking into cell phone safety which is primarily finding ways of shielding ourselves from the radiation. We will talk about three of the best ways to do this at my upcoming workshop.
A very interesting thing happened when I did my meta-research to gather supportive data on this issue. As of approximately the year 2000, research from all the ivory tower institutions no longer definitely affirmed that there is a problem. Prior to this there was talk of unfolding proteins--not a good thing-and increased glucose in the brain near where the phone is held, indicating physiological change at the irradiated point, but no one was saying what was really happening. Some studies indicated a 2.5% increase in tumors on the side the phone is held on, and others claimed no difference at all. Through muscle testing, I have often demonstrated that a person will go into muscle weakness when a phone is either on standby or in an active call while in contact with a person’s body. This is why I always advise using precaution when using a wireless device. One’s health is too valuable to gamble with! The easiest way to help avoid this kind of radiation is to use a wired headset or a speakerphone whenever possible when talking on a cell phone. Keeping a simple bipolar magnet alongside your phone has also shown to be helpful in helping the body deal with the negative effects of cell phones. The most effective magnets are rated at 360 gauss. (Gauss is a unit of magnetic strength.) I keep the magnets used in my ongoing Wellness

Certification stocked in my office primarily for this reason. I’m also excited about a promising new technology that converts radio frequency spikes into harmless bursts of energy. Excess radiation is converted into electricity that powers a small LED light which flashes when excess radiation is being removed. Made in the USA by Erchonia Medical, the same lab that builds the high-end cold laser and other instruments I have in my office, this technology utilizes a thin film printed electronic circuit which adheres to the phone close to the antenna. According to stringent independent laboratory testing, this device reduces radiation exposure up to about 70%--great news for improving your safety! Come to our workshop on April 29 to learn more about cell phone safety and see a demonstration of this new technology!

Honor the Sacred The existence of the Human Energy Field (HEF) is no longer debatable, but factual. In 1963, Gerhard Baule and Richard McFee detected the biomagnetic field projected from the human heart using two coils, each with two million turns of wire, connected to a sensitive amplifier. In 1970, David Cohen of MIT, using a SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Device) magnetometer confirmed their findings, and by 1972, Cohen was able to measure magnetic fields around the head produced by brain activities. Subsequently, it has been discovered that "all" tissues and organs produce specific magnetic pulsations which have come to be known as biomagnetic fields. On a daily basis, we interact with numerous sources that affect our human energy field (aura). Each interaction leaves an energy "imprint" that benefits or compromises our well-being. Acknowledging this truth and integrating it into our decision making process, encourages favorable outcomes. Certain choices need greater consideration due to the resulting impact that comes from the energy connection. Initiations, Empowerments, and especially Attunements would fall into this category. An attunement is an initiation that aligns the recipient with a specific source to gain personal empowerment. In healing energy therapies such as Reiki, the Master Teacher passes an attunement to each student as part of their training. The attunement permanently expands the human energy field of the student to be a vessel for the "source" energy's distinct vibration. The human soul permeates everything about us. It is pure sacred energy. During an attunement, the teacher and student share a merging of personal and "source" energies that create a APRIL 2015
powerful energetic bond, as well as an authentic spiritual connection. For this reason, students and initiates seeking a teacher for classes or an attunement would do well to work with someone on a personal level. Physical contact and familiarity eliminate the guesswork associated with distant relationships. Attunements are sacred rites of passage. As an initiate, you are opening your human energy field to receive channeled "source" energy. You are entrusting your teacher with this privileged responsibility. Allow your senses to engage, interact and experience this sacred moment. Meet and know your “Helping Back teacher. Honor oneYou another. Honoron the the history, lineage and source.

Everything Is Just an Interesting Point of View What if every is just an interesting point of view? This is the Second Key to Total Freedom from the book, “The Ten Keys to Total Freedom” by Gary Douglas and Dr. Dain Heer. Just what is a point of view? A point of view is a particular way of looking at something; it is a position from which something is observed. An opinion is a point of view. There are people that have very strong opinions or points of view. They are very attached to what they believe to be true, and they will defend their point of view at all costs. How much freedom is there in defending a point of view? In Access Consciousness® we say that your point of view creates your reality, not the other way around. We have many kinds of points of view that we have picked up from others. We buy into them and they run our lives (create our reality). These can be either conscious or unconscious. So, think about it for a minute. How many original points of view do you have? Zip, zero, nada. These points of view that

Holy Moley! These points of view can really lock up and limit your life, your living and your reality. So, this key to freedom, “Everything is Just an Interesting Point of View” starts to unlock the limitations defined by the point of view. Here’s how it works. Every time you get into a mind spin where you are circling around a point of view, you can say to yourself, “Interesting point of view, I have this point of view.” Repeat this ten times and sense the freedom you have in your being. For instance, the saying “It always gets darkest before the dawn” is a point of view. You might ask yourself, “What does this phrase really mean?” However, that might just send you down the rabbit hole trying to figure it out. I’ll talk more about “figuring it out” and where that leads in a future article. So, now I can repeat the phrase, “Interesting point of view, I have this point of view” ten times to get more clarity and to create more space in my being. What you really are looking for is Awareness. Awareness is seeing what you can see – and not having a point of view about it. Dr. Dain Heer says, “The definition if point of view is contained in the phrase point of view; it’s the point from which you view something, which means you can only occupy one place in the universe at any one time. You can’t be in multiple places. When you take a point of view, you eliminate space and compress it down to one point, which is where you create limitation.” Awareness takes you out of that compressed view of reality and opens you up to more possibilities. So, if you so choose, you can use this tool to change your reality. David Miller

Gemstone of the Month Diamond Characteristics: Diamonds, the birthstone of April, are one of the most desired gemstones. Stunning in their beauty, they have a unique ability to reflect and refract light into rays of brilliant color. They are harder than any other substance and are extremely durable. Formed deep within the earth where there is intense heat and pressure, they are very simple in composition, having a chemical formula of “C” and are the crystalline formation of carbon. Diamonds are usually white and colorless, but also come in a variety of colors: brown, yellow, blue, red, green, pink, orange and purple. The black diamond is the rarest; it is scarce and is formed differently than traditional diamonds. They are older and harder to cut—the best way to cut a black diamond is with another black diamond. Today, diamonds are primarily found in Australia, the Soviet Union and Africa. Origin: The history of diamonds might trace back as early as 5000 years ago, although their true beauty may not have been discovered until the 16th century when gemstone cutting and polishing techniques were perfected. Before then, it was considered taboo to alter their natural state. Today, the value and appeal of a diamond on Specializing inlargely Phonedepends Readings how www.KrystalBallOnline.com skillfully it is cut and faceted.
for healing, calmness, and clearing the body of toxins. Throughout history, diamonds have been used to embellish crowns, swords, emblems and jewelry. Queen Victoria declared the celebration of her 50th year of reign as a “Diamond Jubilee.” They are the traditional gift for the 60th wedding anniversary. Marilyn Monroe once sang, “Diamonds are a girl’s best friend!” Showroom of Elegance is a trusted, licensed and insured fine jewelry store at 6018 Canton Center Rd. in Canton. (734) 207-1906.

The word diamond comes from old French ‘Diamant’ and Medieval Latin ‘Diamas’ which are a variation of the Latin ‘adamas’ and ‘adamant’ meaning, “hard to cut or pierce.” The ancient Hindus called it, “vajra” meaning, “lightening” because of its ability to throw off light as well as its invincible strength.

hundred percent by 2050 to $11 trillion, according to the Alzheimer’s Association. About 70 percent of these patients will be billed to Medicare and Medicaid.
Although Americans live an average of three years longer than they did twenty years ago, the amount of time they spend with chronic disability is also on the rise. According to an article in the Wall Street Journal, July 11, 2013, leading disabilities include lower back pain and other muscle, nerve and joint disorders.
Natural Solutions with Polarized light for healing
Many studies, done between 1946 and 2013, link obesity and osteoarthritis. One orthopedic physician notes, “A pound of extra body weight placed from two to four pounds of extra stress on the knees and hips. In the arthritic knee, which takes the majority of the pounding, that stress causes the cartilage to wear away, letting the exposed bone surfaces grind against one another. That brings even more swelling, pain, and difficulty in moving about in general.” It is clear to both the public and public health officials that there has been a significant increase in the obesity rate in the United States over the past several decades. In 2012, official tabulations indicated that 69 percent of American adults are overweight or obese. Authorities quoted in USA Today (January 15, 2013) predicted that these obesity rates would nearly double by 2030.

New estimates that the number of Alzheimer’s cases in the USA will triple by 2050 are raising concerns about the nation’s ability to afford care. “If nothing is done, Alzheimer’s will become the financial sinkhole of the 21st century,” says Ken Dychwald, gerontologist.

A Balance For Digestive Health- The pH Factor Behind Depression And Anxiety Our bodies are a magnificence of a complex and delicate balance. For example, our blood desires very specific levels that the body strives to maintain with precision which is what is referred to as, “homeostasis.” Likewise, our digestion is also a delicate balance which can be measured on a pH scale. The letters pH stand for potential hydrogen. Without getting into too much chemistry, the pH scale is basically made up of two sides. On one end of the spectrum there is acid and on the other is alkaline. The foods we eat on a regular basis and the way our body processes them dictates where we fall on the scale. Most of us tend to lie more on the acidic side with more consumption of acid forming foods such as meat and dairy as well as carbohydrates such as sugars and flours. Alkaline forming foods would be things such as herbs, fruits and vegetables. Our ideal pH range lies between 6.3 to 6.7. Anything below 6.3 becomes increasingly acidic as the number gets lower, and conversely anything that rises above 6.7 indicates more alkalinity. Our pH is directly correlated to digestive health and therefore maintaining an overall healthy diet is crucial to staying balanced. Where we fall on the pH scale can have an affect on our moods and emotions as well. When there is a dramatic variance from the normal range in either direction, it can play a significant role in how we feel and conduct our everyday lives. When the range falls to the extreme side of acidity it can cause a person to APRIL 2015

If you want to lose weight...then stop counting calories. Calorie counting is obsolete. You might be asking, “Why?” and I’ll tell you, it’s all about the nutrient density. If you’re only eating foods that are high in calories but low in nutrients, then what’s going to happen is that your body isn’t satisfied nutritionally, and it’s going to be craving additional foods. Hence, more calories and weight gain. Let me give you some examples. Let’s take regular vegetables that are not organic. As these veggies are growing, they are sprayed with pesticides, fungicides and herbicides, which are poisons that kill the microorganisms in the ground. These microorganisms or bugs, are responsible for producing the vitamins and minerals in the plant. Without them, there are no nutrients being produced in the veggies and eating them will cause you to be craving additional foods to satisfy the nutrients your body is craving. Eating organic foods on the other hand, are loaded with vitamins and minerals and don’t contain the toxic metals and chemicals, and therefore your body is getting the nutrients it needs. Now, let’s talk about foods such as cookies, cakes, pasta, breads, crackers etc. These foods are high in calories but low in nutrients. If you’re not getting the nutrients that your body needs, it will cause you to go on a food craving binge. You’ll keep eating until the body gets the nutrients it needs and wants. Thus, the body overeats and you gain weight. On the other-hand, if virtually all of the food you eat every day is comprised of high nutrients, the body is automatically getting all the nutrients it needs, and therefore it will automatically regulate your appetite and calorie intake. This happens without you having to struggle and restrict yourself to control how many calories you eat. This aspect essentially forces your body to auto-adjust your appetite and you naturally fall within the exact calorie range that your body needs without having to over-analyze or count calories. Since most of us are not extreme distance athletes, this just shows you the power of eating a super-high nutrient dense diet and how this can automatically control your appetite, eliminate cravings, and put you on the road to a lean healthy body for life.

LOSING WEIGHT MADE EASY....
I’ve been doing Dr Reggish’s program now for 2 months and I have lost a total of 62 lbs. I can’t believe how easy it has been and how healthy I feel. The first week I lost only 8 lbs., but once I got the hang of it, I started losing fast. Its been 2 months and i’ve lost 62 lbs. I can hardly believe it. This week I lost 5 more pounds. It’s now 11 weeks and my total is 78 lbs. I’m so happy and looking good. Thanks Dr Reggish
IT WAS UNBELIEVABLE. I was reading about Dr. Reggish and all the people who had lost weight. His program was a simple one that was not hard to do. Everything Dr Reggish said made so much sense. It was so simple to make his program a life style change. In 3 weeks, I lost an amazing 47 lbs. I had hoped for 35 lbs and because it was so easy I kept going. Dr Reggish taught me how to eat healthy. I will always be so grateful. Thank you Dr. Reggish. I’ve lost a total of 53 lbs. now after 4 wks. Amanda D., Chicago My husband died 4 years ago at the age of 42. I had gained 50 lbs. and was feeling miserable. I needed help and my girlfriend told me about Dr. Reggish, helping her. I made an appointment with Dr. Reggish and have been on his program for 2 weeks now. So far i’ve lost 22 lbs and I feel great. I’ve followed his program to the T and the weight is falling off. I’m so happy. Week 3, I lost 6 more lbs. for a total of 28 lbs. It’s been 6 weeks now and I’ve lost 45 lbs. Thank you Dr. Reggish! Melanie S., Hazel Park I’m a single mom and I needed to lose 15 lbs. So I decided to see if Dr. Reggish could help. I went in to get the Nutritional and Spinal exams for $45 . To my amazement the first week, I lost 9 lbs. while cheating. I couldn’t believe it. The second week I was good and lost a total of 21 lbs. His program was so easy that I want to work in his office to help others. After 3 wks I’ve lost another 7 lbs. Total now of 28 lbs. It’s been 6 weeks now and total weight loss of 43 lbs. I feel Great. God Bless you Dr. Reggish Sally M., Midland

Ascending Beyond Thought Into Love Have you ever noticed your thoughts? Why would that even matter and what does that have to do with love? Actually, it has everything to do with creating a loving, joyful, peaceful life for you. The average person has 50-70,000 thoughts per day. That’s about 35 to 48 thoughts per minute. The mind is unceasingly active. There is no space between thoughts. With all this thinking going on, what chance is there for the heart to open and breathe? The active mind wears on us and tires us. It keeps us awake at night, filters our reality and at one level is the creator of our experience. We Have Shut Out What Is True This mind is a conditioned mind. It is the voice of parents, teachers, family, culture, religion and our surroundings. We have shut out that which is really true in place of what others, through conditioning, have told us what is true. Life becomes dull and routine as we are blocked by our thinking from the abundance that is our birthright. Many people interpret events and what happens to them according to their conditioned mind; therefore, their mind is always creating their reality.
Unfortunately, it is the same reality played over and over again because events are always interpreted according to the way the mind is conditioned to filter events. In such instances, you cannot help yourself. As long as the mind tapes keep playing, there is little hope for you to create an improved life experience. Even if you want to change, you find you are stuck. Hopelessness descends. Depression sets in. You can’t find a way out. What can you do? Letting Go of Thought You must stop the incessant flow of thought. This is perhaps one of if not the most important thing to do if you wish to expand your consciousness, evolve your soul and step into a new life. We call this state of being Heaven on Earth. In fact, every New Age therapy and teaching, ancient esoteric teaching and even religious doctrine seeks at some level to do this one thing. Let go of the mind and come into the heart. The way to go beyond thought is to simply be there as the witness. Acting on the thought or telling it to go away will not work as you are actually adding energy to it. What you resist persists. Just be with it. Acknowledge it. Love it. As much as possible be aware of what your mind is saying. This is the way of the heart. No one can do this for you. It is up to you to invoke free will and choose differently. Only you can uplift your consciousness and evolve your soul. Begin to affirm “I am not my thoughts” and then take a conscious breath. Focusing on the breath does three things: 1. It takes the mind off thought. 2. It puts you in the present moment where conditioned thought cannot exist. 3. It adds space between thoughts.
Ascension Breathing Expands Consciousness It would be a mistake to take the simple act of conscious breathing for granted. It has the power to change worlds, especially your world. As you progress in Ascension Breathing, there will be a quickening as you access ever more power. Consciousness will expand. As it expands, it builds on itself. Your connection to Source deepens, energizes and inspires you. You begin to realize “I really am something greater than my mind.” You no longer react to events. You ascend above thought and begin to discern the truth; your truth. You begin to access the totality of consciousness and come into a state of awe. You begin to love and forgive yourself and recognize that love is in play everywhere. As you love more, more love comes into your life in all sorts of ways. Peace washes over you. You sleep better, your relationships improve, you get sick less often, you are more playful, have more fun, smiles suddenly appear on your lips for no good reason. You understand you do not need a reason. For you are love itself and love needs no reason to smile because love is joy. And for the first time you realize love has been there all along, you just hid it with a busy mind. May love be with you. Dave Krajovic MBA, CPA, CMT

ROCK OF THE MONTH: Dalmatian stone The white with black spots of the Dalmatian stone is named after a Dalmatian breed of dog. This stone is often mistaken as a jasper; in actuality it is a feldspar/quartz with black or brown tourmaline, which gives it highly grounding and protective qualities. The black tourmaline absorbs and transmutes all negative energy into positive. It also helps to dissolve all barriers and disillusionment. Placed under a child’s pillowcase the black tourmaline will absorb all nightmares. It is an excellent stone for bringing back a childlike innocence by helping us release guilt, discouragement and depression. It helps us let go of what we’ve out-grown, and encourages what we are good at and what we came here to do. It is a great stone for families as well as relationships, helping to instill faith, loyalty and trust. The Dalmatian stone is great to use this time of year because it strengthens our stamina and immune systems. It’s great for animal lovers because it enhances our animal connections and animal telepathy. It grounds our earth, base, sacral and solar plexus chakras, bringing about an emotional balance and joy for life. Dalmatian stone has so many benefits! Just carrying it in your pocket our wearing it as jewelry will cleanse and energize your aura. Jennifer VanderWal teaches Crystal Healing Classes at Bodyworks Healing Center in Plymouth.

Why aren’t you getting what you want out of life? Many people have used various methods to try to obtain what they want in their life, but are still not getting what they desire. You may be familiar with the law of attraction. As this law suggests, you try to focus your attention on what you desire. Despite your best efforts, however, the sought after goal is not attained. Perhaps you have tried using affirmations or visualization, but again success has been elusive. What do you feel is missing in your life? You may desire financial prosperity, or a loving partner. Maybe you want to eliminate certain unwanted habits, such as procrastination, smoking, nail biting, or over-eating, etc. Or, perhaps you have problems with sleep or stress or an illness that won’t go away. You get migraine headaches or have terrible anxiety and can’t seem to overcome it. No doubt, you have tried many of the methods the “experts” have suggested and yet there is very little change. The question you must be asking yourself is, “Why am I not getting the sought after prize?” There could be many reasons for this. One possibility is that on some level you don’t really feel you deserve to have what you want. If this is the underlying problem, no matter how much you visualize or affirm the desired goal, it is not likely to work. If you believe you are not deserving, you will find ways to sabotage your best efforts. Until you are able to change this deep seated belief, you will not be successful. As an example, you may have been constantly criticized when growing up, and as a result you concluded you are somehow inadequate. Having this belief is going to block your best efforts to be successful. Maybe you had a parent who was physically abusive for no apparent reason. Since the younger you had to make sense of what was happening, you may have concluded that you were a “bad person.” If this was the case, you certainly are not going to believe you deserve

good things, and thus will sabotage your efforts to be successful. Let me give you one more example. Perhaps as you were growing up, you kept getting a message that you weren’t smart enough, or not competent enough, or had no talent. If you heard this message enough times, you started to believe it, and as a result, you missed out on all kinds of opportunities. What is so tragic in all of this is that these beliefs were formed when you were quite young, even as young as age five. You had no way of knowing at that time that the problem was not with you, but with the person or persons giving you these destructive messages. As a result, you have probably gone through much of your life believing these inaccurate messages which have robbed you of success and joy. Believing these negative messages, also called core beliefs, will ruin any chance of happiness you might have. The good news is that you don’t have to continue to suffer from these negative core beliefs. There are ways to become aware of these beliefs, which are often subconscious, and to eliminate them and then replace them with much healthier beliefs. One excellent method is with the use of hypnosis. There are many ways hypnosis can help you identify what these negative beliefs are, and once this is done, you can let them go, forever. One method, which some hypnotists use is called, “core issue clearing.” Here, the hypnotist uses your subconscious to locate the undesirable beliefs or patterns and lets the subconscious do the healing. The beauty of hypnosis is that it does not require a great deal of time to rectify the problems. Usually it can be done in just a few sessions.

APRIL 2015
Creating Compassion Much of our daily life in seamless. We flow from situation to situation. Our body, mind and spirit work together in harmony to accomplish our goals. But frequently, we run into barriers. Certain life events trigger the reactive mind, and harmony dissipates. The reactive mind is triggered by any event that does not match our wishes or expectations; rejections, failures, stress and disappointments of all kinds. The barrier we have hit is familiar. We know this wall well. Hasn’t this happened before; it seems like forever? The Tibetan word for this reactive state of mind is schempa. The Buddhist scholar, Pema Chodrun, translates shempa as ‘hooked.’ She describes being hooked as characterized by a tightening, a tensing, a sense of closing down. We wish to escape, not wanting to be in this situation. Often this feeling state is paired with the destructive emotions of fear, anger, sadness or obsession. From the perspective of Buddhist psychology, our task is to open our heart to the shempa, not close it. The open heart restores lost harmony. The open heart allows us to release destructive emotions and return to a state of balance. The closed heart morphs into hostility, withdrawal, addiction, anxiety or despair. The basic tool to counter the shempa is meditation. And, in my experience, there are two forms of meditation. The most basic form of meditation is single focus meditation. In this form, the mediator focuses on only one thing, often one’s breath, to the exclusion of all else. Extraneous thoughts, feelings and sensations are noticed, then released while the meditator returns to focusing on their breathing. Single point meditation facilitates calming the reactive mind. It leads to a sense of equanimity, centeredness, and well being. The second form of meditation is corrective. Often a guru or mentor will utilize a special practice meditation to help a student counter a destructive shempa. Psychologically, this may be seen as creating a positive character trait, or attempting to replace a dysfunctional character attribute.
to them, wish them well, extend comfort and silently share in their pain. Allow the mind to flow, open to positive images that capture the heart of compassion: an innocent child, a frail elder, or a beloved pet. Aloud or silently chant: May you be held in compassion May your pain and sorrow be eased May you be peaceful Repeat this mantra a few times. Practice daily, gradually extending this chant for 5-10-20 minutes. Now, can you focus on someone whom you feel has caused you great pain? Replace the reactive judgments toward them of anger, revenge and self-righteousness. Can you repeat the same mantra? May you be held in compassion May your pain and sorrow be eased May you be peaceful. Can you feel your heart soften? Can you feel the release of tension? Can you feel the link of compassion with your former enemy? Can you feel your life lighten? Lastly, apply this lesson to yourself: May I be held in compassion May my pain and sorrow be eased May I be at peace Following a general meditation session, use this compassion practice. After a few months of practice you will strengthen the compassionate character trait in yourself, and clear a path to bring greater harmony in your life and relationships. Read Jack Kornfield’s, The Wise Heart for complete exploration of compassion practice. Michael Abramsky PhD, ABPP is a licensed psychologist with 35 years of experience treating adolescents and adults for anxiety, depression and trauma. He is nationally Board Certified in both Clinical and Forensic psychology.. Dr. Abramsky also has a MA in Comparative Religions, and has practiced and taught Buddhist Meditation for 25 years. You may call him at: 248-644-7398
One of the most common corrective meditations is, creating compassion. The purpose of compassion is primarily to counter the shempa of anger. In Buddhist psychology, compassion is seen as our natural state of being, while anger is a painful and artificial state created by the reactive mind. Sit in a centered and quiet way. Breathe softly and slowly. Begin by thinking of someone you truly love. Visualize that person, and let your natural feeling for them flow. Focus on your heart. Feel your heart open and expand. Think of the suffering that loved one has experienced in their life: rejections, failures, loss of love and physical challenges. Open your heart APRIL 2015

Love Expands As I sit outside on this warm, lovely day, the birds singing, squirrels scampering, I am filled with a warm, expansive glow. This glow, this energy, is what I feel connects me to all the universe and our Creator. And, I call this energy, Love. Love, life and truth are often how our Creator’s energy is expressed. These are eternal and so, are the only reality. Nothing else really exists. In the ancient texts, the Torah, Bible and many others, and also as pointed out in Course in Miracles, God made us in his/her image, and as God is Love, so are we. In fact, it could be said that love is the only real energy since only God, our Creator, exists. If only God exists, and God is love, then everything is love. Isn’t that amazing to know! That means that our true self is...Love! So, as our true self is love, when we don’t act out of love, we are acting out of our ego, our false self with which we identify with our worldly view, our persona and defenses, that we have developed in this lifetime, and perhaps crossed over from others. When our thoughts are anything but love, we are usually in fear, ego, and as we are made in the image/energy of our Creator, our thoughts create our world. Yes, even when you think they are harmless, thoughts are energy and create as everything is made from energy. As you think your thoughts, you create your world. When you think you are angry, you cannot be connected with your true self, as your true self is love, and anything else does not exist. So, you tell yourself you feel angry; this is at variance with who you truly are and so a conflicted world is seen and experienced by you. What you think, becomes a hologram that you experience as life. And, only from your point of view. That’s why when we have 10 different people experiencing an event, we can get 10 different experiences reported. Everyone experiences their life from their point of view, stemming from what their thoughts, emotions and energy create. When you are coming from love, all is possible. Your thoughts are actually images you create. Connect with your inner love, your true self, and your thoughts create a loving world, so that’s what you experience. All right you say, but what if something happens that you think is “bad”? And, what if you feel you are justified in being unforgiving? Then, my dear, you are not in connection with your true self. With love, all is forgiven. As the only reality is that that is eternal, only our Creator is real. Therefore, only love, light and truth is real. As that is true, all our experiences are unreal that are not loving. Let them go. Allow yourself to forgive from love. Choose to forgive from love.
38 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
APRIL 2015
That’s right, just let anything unloving go. Release them for the unreal thought/experiences they are. It is great to remember that all our experiences happen for us, not to us. That means that, as Course in Miracles says, all events, all experiences are holy encounters that we can, when looked at from our true self - love, learn from for our own growth. So, when you have an experience, stop, take a deep breath, connect with your true self and then act from your inner guide, which means you will act from love. Later, you can choose to go within, perhaps meditate or write in a journal, maybe even speak with someone you trust that has some wisdom and the ability to listen to their Higher/True Self... a friend, mentor, learned spiritual advisor or therapist, and discover what this experience shows that you can work through for your self-realization. You can choose to be determined to see and experience things differently.... through love. Making the decision to be mindful of when you are feeling or acting out of anything besides love is the first step towards a loving experience of life. For the Law of Attraction says: Like attracts like. If you are having the energy of fear, anger, disappointment, guilt, or anything else of “negative” vibration, that is what you draw to yourself like a magnet. Likewise with love, happiness, compassion, joy, peace or anything else of “positive” vibration: you attract a life experience of that! So, do your best to be mindful of the energy you are in: True Self/Love or False Self/Fear. I would suggest some steps: 1) upon awakening, think of 3 things to be deeply grateful for (make this a mindful thing, not rote) 2) set an hourly alarm and “check in” to your feelings, in the heart/soul, not the head/ego 3) keep a journal of your feelings and experiences, what you have learned from them. These steps can be helpful in assisting you to stop, breathe and act from love, escaping a negative experience by giving up negative or attacking thoughts. Remember, love is expansive and eternal, real. Fear, anger and other negative feelings only create a cage, a trap of those experiences. Yes, you can “feel good” and “powerful” at the time, yet is not the true you and is limiting. Anything not of love, truth and light are unreal and created by you, not our Creator. You can choose to experience and think differently by choosing with your free will to connect with your True Self/Love within, creating and attracting a loving life to experience. You can choose to experience life differently.... with love. So, go forth in Love... expand the happiness and love of our Creator and experience a loving life!

THE TIME IS NOW “TIME is not running out, the TIME IS NOW!” This I said to Jethro, my beloved brother of flesh and bone, born on the Spring Equinox. He is apart of my soul group that I have known in many lifetimes. He is a modern-day knight and holy man in every way. His soul journey and his path has been one of a patriarch, protector, leader, and wise counselor. We have soul lessons in common and I had the privilege of learning through his experiences, as he set out into the world years before me. The opportunity is now RIPE for Jethro to birth the vision that I AM has placed in his heart. While Jethro does not rush into any decision, he fears that if he takes too long that he will miss the opportunity. The beauty in this situation is that he can begin this path at another time. The question is whether or not he chooses to catch his golden goose now or leave it to wander a bit more. What Jethro is experiencing now is what I call, “The Stirring.” This is one step in the Awakening of the Divine Self. The Void: You feel a void in your life and feel that you could be doing more or something else. The Call: I AM calls you to align your desires, gifts, occupation, lifestyle, etc. with Divine Will. You will be asked to step out of your rational mind and be a vehicle in carrying out a piece of the Divine Will. The Stirring: Spirit stirs your heart until you make your decision. You take the time to decide whether or not you will respond to the call. For many, this can be a period of confusion or unrest. Responsibility: You recognize that it is your responsibility to answer the call. Release: Just as blood flows in and out of the heart, you decide what you have to release and what you can carry to follow the “Fool’s Journey.” Noah built a ship and carried the genetic sequence of every man and beast, but released his pride at the expense of mockery. What will you sacrifice on the sojourn that only you were meant to travel? The Leap: Like the Fool, you step off of the cliff. You fall but do not crash. Your angels and your guides plant you right where you need to be. The Quickening: Spirit guides you to those people who are like
you and share your vision. The quickening is a constant process. The Initiation: This can be one test or a series of them. You face your worst fears, experience perceived setbacks, and may endure many hardships. If you run, you will just receive another test until you are forced to take a stand. However, rest assured that at the end of them, you will know who you are, what you stand for, and a frame of reference for dealing with challenges. You will also notice that your gifts have increased, or the revelation of hidden ones. Furthermore, with this process comes a new set of eyes through which you see the world. The Mission: As Paul said, “We know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears” (1 Corinthians 13: 9-10). The Mission is not one revealed in its totality, but one phase at a time. If it were so, do you think that Abraham himself would have even began this journey? The Mission unfolds, piece-by-piece and evolves. This is the Spiral Dance. Even when it appears that we are going backwards, it’s really upwards and around. The wisdom that we acquire at every twist and bend is what helps us to evolve. My Ring on the Spiral Dance: Out of obedience, I built Ray of Light and took on Virginia Mercury not knowing exactly what this would lead to. I just knew that I had to do it. Spirit just asked me to “Build it and they will come.” Now, Spirit keeps playing the Nirvana verses in my head, “Come, as you are... as a friend.” This is my Divine Mission, my passion and my tithe of time and talent. Therefore, this Spring of 2015, this time of GREAT CHANGE, come, so that I may serve. I am selfsupported and justified through the Spirit of Mother/Father God who dwells within ALL OF US. Wherever you are at spiritually, whatever you have to offer, just come so that I may know you and know myself even more. I will share my two cents with you as a spiritual coach, a licensed professional counselor, an intuitive, or as a newly ordained, interfaith minister. If I cannot help you, I will send you to someone who can. Above all, bring the seeds that you wish to sow with LOVE. Selah. VM.

Expanding the Law of Attraction
the past. Trying to think positive and “raise your vibration” when you have strong emotions that need to be accepted, felt, and released, is like putting a small Band-Aid on a gaping wound -- it’s just not going to work.
The law of attraction is a concept that has become increasingly popular within spiritual communities, especially since the release of the book and movie, “The Secret” about 10 years ago. The law of attraction states that we are creators of our life experience and that we create with our every thought. Based on the premise that “like attracts like”, the law of attraction suggests that by thinking positive thoughts and avoiding negative thoughts, we can raise our vibration, which will allow us to manifest what we want in our lives.
Suggesting that someone think positively when there is unresolved trauma and/or too much in the way emotionally, can also evoke feelings of shame, blame, and self-doubt. People often think that if they had more discipline and self-control they could successfully avoid negative thinking and raise their vibration to manifest what they want in their lives, but nothing could be further from the truth. It’s only when people are able to work through what is underneath those challenging feelings that they can move forward and create new possibilities in their lives.
Understanding that we have the ability to create what we want in our lives is incredibly helpful and empowering, so from that vantage point the law of attraction illuminates an important truth. However, there is more to the story. The idea that one can simply manifest whatever he/she wants by creating a clear vision and thinking positive is inaccurate because life is much more complex than that. First, the law of attraction often does not take into account the importance of feeling and processing strong emotions and challenging experiences from the past. Instead, the advice is to remember that your thoughts are creating your reality and to focus your attention on something that feels better. This approach can lead to spiritual bypassing, which is when we use a spiritual concept to avoid and deny what is present. For example, a person may make a gratitude list, create a vision board, or say an affirmation (all popular law of attraction suggestions), when they would be best served by having a good cry, expressing anger, or processing and integrating a painful experience from APRIL 2015
Another aspect of the law of attraction that can create more harm than good is the idea that we are 100% responsible for everything that shows up in our lives. This belief does not take into account the great mystery of this life experience. There are certain parts of life, such as unavoidable karmic relationships and core life lessons, that we line up with because they uniquely support our soul’s growth. These experiences are often difficult and are truly unavoidable, so the idea that we are completely responsible for them can create a false sense of control over things we really don’t have control over. This idea of 100% responsibility can also create a barrier to extending genuine compassion and help to others who most need it. If a person is experiencing difficulty in the realm of relationship, health, finances, etc., seeing them as being entirely responsible for their circumstances and believing that they “manifested” all of their problems, closes one’s heart to the
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
suffering of another fellow human being. While it’s true that some people are stuck in negative belief systems that contribute to the challenges they face, there are also other factors (like karmic lessons) that are not under their control. Additionally, if someone is stuck in negativity it is often because of a whole lifetime of experiences, which led to that way of thinking and being in the world. Instead of seeing these individuals as being completely responsible for what they are experiencing, it can be helpful to have compassion for whatever is showing up for them and to keep your heart open to their suffering and the ways you may be able to offer loving support. This approach builds a bridge instead of creating separation. Understanding that we are creators of this life experience is a powerful truth that the law of attraction has helped to spread, and there is certainly a place for vision boards, positive thinking, affirmations, etc., in creating the life we desire. However, it’s important to remember that positivity alone cannot create change when there are strong emotions and painful past experiences that need our attention.

It’s also helpful to remember that life is a great mystery. Instead of assuming that you or anyone is 100% responsible for their life experience, consider that there are certain things beyond our control and that we all deserve to be met with understanding and compassion when going through difficult times.

Spiritual Horoscopes
Aries (March 21 – April 19) —
Happy Birthday Aries! You might get a raise or a big tax refund. Resist the urge to splurge until you rework your budget. Even subtle changes in money habits bring immense prosperity! Relationships are also super. New connections are in synch with your spiritual goals. Present partnerships will be more fun and passionate! You could even explore Tantra or sacred sexuality together. Taurus (April 20 – May 20) — Energetic Mars is in your sign! Take action on ideas about fitness, daring new goals and even dramatic changes to your appearance. The outer you reflects the inner changes in your consciousness! Be brave and release junk in your house that represents the old you. Make space for new blessings — material, emotional or spiritual. Meditate and journal about family “thought forms” that hold you back from joy. You can free yourself. The past does dictate your future! Gemini (May 21 – June 20) — Make room for abundance, intimacy and joy! Forgive and release resentments from the past two years. Meditate on old pain and rage. (Some ideas might come in dreams.) Write about these people or events. Ask the Universe to heal the wounds. You’ll attract positive new work and love opportunities over the next three months. Use affirmations after clearing your subconscious. Plant pleasant ideas that support your freshly healed heart! Cancer (June 21 – July 22) — Make new friends who match your spiritual goals and are also fun! You often spend time with people who drain
you, or to whom you feel obligated. Speak up about what YOU like to do. This change can create new friendships from old ones since they’ll be so transformed! If partnered, meditate together about power issues. Are there ways to smooth out challenges? You might only need to be direct instead of expecting mind reading! Leo (July 23 – Aug. 22) — Jupiter, the planet of abundance and fulfillment, moves direct in your sign! You can release negative patterns. Gratitude lists are especially helpful. Also, do creative visualization. You can manifest what you can imagine, so dream big! Meditate on your highest desires for relationships, career, health and spiritual growth. Include others in your prayers since your energy is so powerful and you have plenty to spare! Virgo (Aug. 23 – Sept. 22) — This is a great time to renew your enthusiasm for spirituality. Try a new yoga class, a new philosophy, or a new meditation method. You’ll know it’s right since you’ll feel you’ve “come home” in some way. If you’re having relationship issues, either a challenging partnership or being unhappily single, dedicate yourself to your new spiritual path and see what changes happen effortlessly over the next few months. Record your dreams for even more guidance. Libra (Sept. 23 – Oct. 22) — The more you work on internal “issues”— emotional, family, or even karmic/past life — the more fulfillment in your outer world. Meditate to contact your intuition, identify subconscious programming, and release the problems, and you’ll have more passion in relationships and greater prosperity.
You’ll make new friends or enjoy people and activities in a new way. Keep digging for hidden “junk” and shine with empowerment! Scorpio (Oct. 23 – Nov. 21) — You’ll have awesome career breakthroughs as Jupiter moves direct! You might start a new relationship — or a current partnership will be revived by the confidence from your job. People might be jealous of you, but you’ve worked hard, so don’t feel guilty! Meditate for the strength to break from false friends. Jupiter brings positive, group-minded pals into your orbit if you release the old! Sagittarius (Nov. 22 – Dec. 21) — You’ll feel spiritually rejuvenated! Recommit to a yoga or meditation practice — or however you feel close to your soul. Be kind to your body temple by taking note of what you eat and drink — and be aware of other health habits that build you up or tear you down. Also, use prosperity affirmations to draw more channels of divine supply! Capricorn (Dec. 22 – Jan. 19) — Pluto, the planet of deep transformation and intense healing, clears inner debris that keeps you from success and joy. Cooperate with this energy by meditating, journaling and believing in your empowerment! Work with past lives and see how they affect you today. Inspiration to move forward comes from partners, children, even pets. When you feel how cherished and awesome you are, you can continue to overcome negativity in your head! Aquarius (Jan. 20 – Feb. 18) — Like Libra friends, the more you release subconscious patterns, the better relationships will be. Your mind always works overtime and can have negative impact upon those around you.

Meditating to observing thoughts and taking control of them makes your “vibe” more soothing, and people relax. Even if they’re not aware of where the tension came from, they’ll act differently around you and see you with new eyes. This can be romantic partners, family or work colleagues. And you’ll like being in your own skin more, too! Pisces (Feb. 19 – March 20) — Meditate before you talk or act! This month’s full moon eclipse makes subconscious fears bubble up, causing you to feel irritable and defensive about money or intimacy. Breathe and gain a higher perspective on emotions. Also, look at health habits for substances that create aggression — caffeine, sugar, MSG, etc. — even lack of sleep. Honor your body and mind and you’ll see pressing “issues” were just imaginary shadows. Aluna Michaels Aluna Michaels is a secondgeneration astrologer and soul evolutionist practitioner.

Life Is For You Life cannot contradict its own nature…the cells of your body seek to replicate, plants yearn for growth, and the universe is expanding. There is an energy, or force, that is happening in your body, nature, and all of life. The Mud in your life (the challenges and emotional pain), is fertile soil that is needed to bring forward the next expression of your Soul. Life is always seeking to become more itself...in you, through you, and as you. Personally and professionally, I had a couple of challenging weeks. This triggered me into temporarily forgetting Life is for me. After some time in nature and contemplation, I realized I had been viewing the past weeks with faulty perception. This realization re-inspired me into greater embodied Love and reminded me of why we forget that Creation is conspiring for our good. I pray that the thoughts below will help you to remember how loved you truly are. Why do we forget the pulsating and thriving flow of Life? We try to go faster than the pace of Life. Our society and personal demands are at an unnatural and frenzied pace. Because we do not give ourselves time and space to be still and let our nervous systems reset, our minds become filled with text messages, other people’s thoughts, to-do lists, etc. If we slow down for even 20 minutes a day, we can reconnect into the Life force that is cheering us on. We suffer when we don’t “get our way” & resist “what is”. We want “the things we want” to be right here and right now. If they don’t happen, we either blame ourselves (feeling that we lack something) or we blame Life. I encourage you to invite a greater trust of the timing within your life by controlling what you can: •
a. Your willingness to learn and grow into greater Love and happiness within.
•
b. Your intentions for living.
Practice a and b, and then let go. When you are willing to come into greater embodied Love and are clear on your personal motivations, you align with the constantly happening good within your life. For example, when a person schedules a mentoring session, this strongly sets an intent to realize their True Self. Hundreds of times, I’ve seen Life line-up the perfect situation, or information, to support a person’s healing. Here are some recent happenings: On the morning of a session, a book fell from a shelf on exactly the topic the client was struggling with. - During a session, a client let go of anger with a friend. The friend called right after the session, saying the very healing words the client had spoken to herself. - A client had an argument with his loved one hours before a session. The argument brought forth the core of the fear which was preventing him from taking action on his dreams.

Law of Attraction and/or religious “Santa Claus God” Unfortunately, both the law of attraction and religion promote a concept that “good things happen to good people, and bad things to bad people.” People from the law of attraction camp may say, “I drew this in.” A religious person may say, “I must not be in God’s favor.” I invite you to accept neither concept and open to a broader understanding of God and Life’s love for you. Life has some predetermined situations. At the same time, you have free will choice. This balanced and non-dualistic view provides resilience within a tragedy or any situation you ‘do not want’. This view means understanding that there are certain life events that are going to happen no matter what positive things you think, or what techniques you use in prayer. At the same time, you choose how you show up each day. You have a choice to be aligned with the good that is already there. Another way of saying this is: “You are loved not because you are good, it is because God is good” - Richard Rhor, Immortal Diamond You are loved no matter what you do, say, or accomplish. You are love. You have the free will choice to see the good that is within you. You are created in God’s image, not as hands or feet, but as the very essence of the Cosmos. How can Life be punishing you? You will only believe life is punishing you if you have forgotten who you truly are. Life is not against you. I know Life can be challenging; it’s meant to be. Just as it takes pressurized coal to make a diamond, Life will help you to birth your True Self through the Mud (challenges and emotional pain.) Struggles and inner pain are fertilizer to realizing the Magnificence you are, God Is, and Life Is. Deny the pain, or hold limiting beliefs that the Mud is somehow your fault (or someone else’s) and you will create a blinder to what Life is seeking to birth within you.
Healing means to remember your wholeness amidst the Mud. At my last retreat I asked, “What gives you the courage to love yourself?” I found this question pure genius. When the people were facing the parts of themselves they wanted to hide, or emotions they wanted to push back down, I saw them drawing on their previous answer. For me, I show up each day because I know my loved self helps the animals, Earth and world crisis. I know that my light and living example is the number one greatest way to teach others. Maybe for you, the courage to love yourself will come from your children, your parents, starving children, or a partner. Getting caught in other people’s “stuff”. Finally, I leave you with this funny story. A 106 year-old man was asked, “Why are you so happy?” He said, “In the morning I tend to my own business, and let others business be theirs. And at the end of the day, I tend to my own business, and let others business be theirs!” You have no control over the emotions or choices of others. However in loving yourself, and showing up for your life, you powerfully affect everyone around you. Remember that life is always working on your behalf to become more you. Be willing and open to the good that is constantly seeking to be expressed through you and as you! Let your perfect and imperfect self be seen, and a greater True Self will emerge from this integrated expression.

You are not your past, but the wisdom gained from it. You have a choice to see the good and growth that came from your past. Or, you can use the past to justify not opening up to Life and/or following through on daily baby steps to change. It doesn’t take much effort to be a cynic; this is mental laziness. It does, however, take great courage to love yourself and open to Life/Love every day. Your healing affects your life, family, and community.

Container: An Embodied Mechanism of Communication
needed. Regular breath. Continue and be with your soul essence.
We develop as a reflection of how Earth develops. When we develop we have mechanisms, like our container, to connect and be in sync with our planet, solar system and galaxy. When we are in sync, we are like members of an orchestra or madrigal singing group, all playing different parts but all in synchronized, beautiful harmony. Embodied Mechanism: Container Like the Russian nesting dolls, so are the multitude of containers through which we create our lives. Our aura is one of the many containers through which we create our lives. It allows the soul essence to embody, to become denser, and to form our vortexes or energetic centers and our crystal structures inside of us. The Embodied Practice segments below support us in developing our aura, giving us a safe container in which to develop. Last month’s article discussed how grounding, the embodied mechanism that puts us in communication with earth’s energy, contains information about bringing our soul essence into the body. Our container, another embodied mechanism, puts us in communication with other fields and aids in our energetic development. In my book, Soul Orientation: The Dance of Reflective Relationship, I wrote of the space-time vortex of Earth. The spacetime vortex is a four-layered vortex in the fabric of space. Earth’s space-time vortex contains her and functions as one of Earth’s mechanisms of connection to the sun, planets, and other solar systems. In forming, elements and water swirled Earth’s iron core, condensing in, creating the inner heart of Earth and then finally, Earth’s outer shell cooled. Through this process and millions of years, as APRIL 2015
Exhale. On the pause of the exhale, connect thumb to pinky. Be with your soul essence. Earth became denser as she formed, the density of Earth’s mass formed the space-time vortex. So what do we have to learn from this forming of one of the containers of Earth? We develop as a reflection of how earth develops. So, we must establish our swirling developmental process to become more dense, to create one of the containers through which we make our long-range connections. Becoming dense or forming your soul essence in body involves many mechanisms. The one that we are focusing on in this article is the outside edge of our aural field. Just as the Earth needs her cooled and hardened surface to hold the intensity of her heart inside, so we need the outside edge of our aura Our outside edge begins with our sacrum’s ability to charge and move that energy to the outside edge of our aura, one of our containers. This must be experienced to be understood. To support you in experiencing, establishing and understanding your container, I would like to share excerpts from the Embodied Practice Manual below. Containers must be experienced before being understood. This article holds an energetic container for you to step into if you choose. Charging the sacrum or the Breath of Life (as we call it in Embodied Practice): Containing to Connect Exhale. Pause. On the pause of the exhale, connect thumb to pinky. Inhale when you are ready.

Inhale. Soul essence pulsates out. Exhale. On the pause of the exhale, connect thumb to pinky. Still in the pause, greet your soul essence. Inhale when you need to. As you inhale, continue to allow your soul essence to pulse out. Exhale. Allow your soul essence to slowly pulsate in like a heartbeat. Pause. Connect thumb to pinky, be with your soul essence, and imagine snuggling into this safe space inside of you. Inhale when you need to. Soul essence pulsates like a heartbeat out to meet. Take two to three breaths and repeat. Allow yourself to be nurtured by your soul essence. Charging the Sacrum: Breath of Life Exhale, as slowly as you are able. Pause. As you come into the pause, allow your diaphragm to open (note: this will take a while, until it happens in the physical realm). Inhale. Diaphragm releases down air and flows into the space of the lungs. Exhale. Diaphragm releases up Pause. Diaphragm prepares to open. Release downward any tension, fears or other feelings. Diaphragm releases downward. Inhale. As the diaphragm relaxes the sacrum begins to open to the Breath of Life energy. Regular Breath. Do this sacrum opening breath for five to six times. Exhale. Inhale. Charge the space between P a g e 45
lumbar two and three. As the diaphragm relaxes down, the energy swirls in an inward motion down the left side of your spine and in an outward motion down the right side of your spine. Those two vortexes form in your middle lower back, pushing the energy of the Breath of Life down into your sacrum. The cobalt blue energy begins to charge into your sacrum. Exhale. Pause. On the pause of the exhale, connect thumb to pinky. Simply be with your soul essence for a few breaths if needed. If able, let the Breath of Life happen. Exhale. In the pause of the breath, connect thumb to pinky. “I am one in relationship.” Inhale. Connect thumb to ring finger. “Open to the Breath of Life.” Slowly allow yourself to inhale, place pressure on your ring finger. Allow that diaphragm to drop in the back, charging that space between the second and third lumbar spine. Pause. In the pause of the fullness of breath, move thumb to middle finger. In communication, two lines of energy pulse downward on either side of your lower spine, spiraling inward & on the right. on the left and spiraling outward

Cobalt blue energy covers the outside edge of your aura. Four-Part Breath Exhale. Pause. Connect thumb to pinky. “I am one in relationship.” Inhale.

A Note from the Sensology Institute Staff: This is the fourth in a series of 7 articles on Embodied Mechanisms, each describing one of the energetic mechanisms of Embodied Practice and soul orientation. These mechanisms allow our soul to emerge in the body through the gathering of our soul essence photon light from each lifetime. Each mechanism provides another key to unlock the door of our interrelatedness, or oneness, with the Universe. Articles are grounded in Kiera D. Laike’s theory and practice of Sensology (see www.SensologyInstitute.com). Sensology has never before been written about, and is not based on any established philosophy or discipline. Kiera D. Laike, IRW, Interrelated Realm Walker, brings the theory and practice of Sensology, described in this article and in her book, Soul Orientation. Kiera founded the Sensology Institute and Embodied Teacher Certification programs it offers. She and the Sensology Institute staff offer Embodied Practice classes and Sensology sessions on line and in person. www. SensologyInstitute.com or drlaike@mail.com.
