I went to a health fair and saw “free iris analysis” at her booth and I was curious about iridology. She used a magnifying glass and she told me that I have an issue of sigmoid, and I told her that I recently had a diagnosis of sigmoid. I’m amazed she discovered that. She recommended healthy foods to eat.

COSMIC ZOOM:

In his book, “Portrait of an Artist as a Young Man”, James Joyce, depicted the character, Stephen Dedalus, as being capable of supra-consciousness and Joyce called this trait “cosmic zoom”.

He clearly indicated we k o of Psyche in which an individual i that there is no “subterranean sm n f r is totally immersed in their u consciousness”. He posited that i environment.

6 Ways to Change Your Behaviour

D

o you sometimes feel as if you don’t have enough control over your life? Since our lives are the result of our long-term behaviours, you can regain control by making positive changes to your patterns.

Here are some strategies that will make it easier to change your behaviours and allow more control over your experiences: • Make the new behaviour as enjoyable as possible.

For instance, you might dislike exercising, but if you could find a way to make it more enjoyable, you would take part more often in this healthy activity.

Maybe you could exercise with a friend or discover a new form of exercise that you enjoy.

• The more agreeable the new task is to you, the more likely you are to do it.

• Make a list of the positive benefits you’ll get. By making a list, you’ll begin to see the task in a more positive light. Come up with as many benefits as you can and keep that list in plain view.

• For example, perhaps you feel like you should eat more nutritiously. Some of the positive aspects of healthier eating might include: • I’ll feel better.

• My clothes will fit better.

• I’ll enjoy more vibrant health.

• I’ll feel a sense of pride.

• Make the decision. Just decide that you’re going to do it; often that’s the hardest part. Making a decision is the first step to accomplishment. Until that point, you’re really just wishing.

• Control your thoughts. If you focus on how much you don’t like doing something, it will be much more difficult to get yourself to do it. Try to catch yourself before you get too far down that road. When a negative thought like this comes up, substitute a new thought from the list you made in step #2.

• The more incentive you have, the more likely you are to be successful.

• For example, if you spend all your time focused on how good you’re going to look after eating well for three months, your odds of success go up considerably. On the other hand, if you spend all your time thinking negatively, what do you think the outcome will be?

• Reward yourself afterwards. A wee reward can go a long way. So, after a new behaviour has taken root, do something nice for yourself. More importantly, be proud of yourself for following through on any behaviour that improves your life.

6

• Be diligent. While getting started is often the most difficult part, it can be easy to backslide if you get distracted and stop paying attention. Every day, review how you did. How successful were you with exhibiting the new behaviour? Each moment you spend measuring your progress serves as a daily reminder.

This will help solidify the behaviour.

Changing behaviours can be challenging, but it can improve your life in the long-term. Examine which behaviours you might want to alter to take your life to the next level, and then apply the process I’ve laid out above. Be patient with yourself - you may have been doing something a certain way for many years. Some things will take time to change, but you can do it!!

Chant to Serve, Heal, and Transform all Life

By Master Lynda Chaplin To chant is to serve. To chant is to heal, rejuvenate, and transform all life.

For thousands of years, singing or chanting mantras has been one of the most powerful methods of spiritual practice and development. Chanting can greatly benefit all aspects of life because it removes blockages on the level of soul, heart, mind, and body. Soul blockages are negative karma. Heart blockages include selfishness, greed, all kinds of desires, and more. Mind blockages include negative mind-sets, attitudes, ego, attachments, and more. Body blockages include energy and matter blockages.

There are two ways to chant: silently and aloud.

Chanting silently vibrates the smaller cells and spaces in the body; it is yin chanting. Chanting aloud vibrates the bigger cells and spaces: it is yang chanting. Both ways are correct. You may choose to do one or the other or both. Always chant silently when lying down so as not to drain your qi (energy).

The one-sentence secret of chanting is:

Go into the divine condition. Give yourself fully to the mantra or Divine Soul Song. Become the mantra. For example, when you chant Love, Peace and Harmony, you become the presence of love, peace and harmony on Mother Earth.

What you chant is what you become.

A Spiritual Vision For 2016

By Rev. Roxanne Buckle, Unity Spiritual Centre Ottawa

Happy New Year, or as we like to say in Unity, Happy New YOU!

U

nity’s 3rd principle is through our thoughts and feelings we create our physical reality, or, it’s done to me as I believe (and beliefs are a pattern of repeated thought). This principle suggests that if we don’t like what’s creating in our experience, we need to get to work changing our thoughts about it. Right? Depending on where we are in consciousness at any moment, we’ll find that statement either empowering (wow! it’s up to me) or scary (what! it’s up to me?).

At Unity Spiritual Centre Ottawa, we celebrate the birth of the Divine Presence within each of us along with the 12 Divine Powers at Christmas. As the old year ends, we hold a Burning Bowl Ceremony where we release what doesn’t serve us; those old negative thoughts and feelings. Now, we embrace the heavy lifting, the work to align our human nature with our Spiritual Nature. This is the big realm of unlimited possibilities and new thoughts about the limitless potential for our health, our relationships, our financial prosperity and our creative expression.

On the first Sunday of 2016, we each meditated on a word or a phrase that will guide us throughout the year as we each do our work to cultivate our Unity Vision of

BEING GROUNDED

An article by Lynne Cardinal n our busy lives we tend to be absorbed mainly on the mind level. Because of this focus we may feel somewhat disconnected from our body, ungrounded. Yet, the benefits of being grounded are numerous. For example, we feel more present, balanced, our mind is clearer and calmer.

Our mind is usually quite busy, thinking, planning, and often worrying. This “busyness” generates a lack of balance, and repercussions on all levels: we may not sleep well, or we may eat too much, worry too much, or simply feel disconnected. When we aren’t fully grounded, our body and mind are weaker and cannot handle stress with the same capacity.

Being grounded also has a powerful energetic balancing effect on the level of our mind and emotions.

We feel more present as the body is calming.

The question to be asked then is why in the first place are we disconnected from our core? Many uncomfortable situations make us want to escape the present moment.

So we find solace in any way we can, and often that is to disconnect. As a result, in our base there resides the residue of a past that was uncomfortable or painful, and as a habit we remain ungrounded, disconnected. To heal our past, and develop calmness and groundedness, hypnosis is a great tool to heal and shift perspectives

and habit patterns. Accessing our deeper mind we can truly heal, release and develop new habits. Meditation also, when done properly, helps to be more grounded and present.

Healing From the Core

Rev. Sherry Harris, MSW, RSW, Psycho-spiritual counsellor, coach, teacher, healer

T

here are many reasons we don’t get over our emotional issues. Probably the biggest reason is that we think we don’t have problems--- it is everyone else’s fault. If only they wouldn’t do this___, then I wouldn’t feel this and act this way”. We can’t fix what we won’t acknowledge. Not recognizing we have destructive tendencies and limiting patterns will not make them go away. To be healed, issues must be accepted with grace and humility and brought to the surface for healing. It is very difficult to be objective about ourselves. This is why counsellors can be so helpful. They can, with impartial clarity, help shine the light on the places where we are stuck.

Another reason we don’t fully heal even if we have courageously tackled some of our issues is that we have not found where the issue started, not gotten to the core.

It is generally somewhere between birth and age 8 where we in some way felt deprived, unloved, ignored, made to feel inadequate, shamed or made to feel guilty.. This was not done intentionally as parents generally do the best they can. Sometimes that best is not good enough to give children the feeling that they are unconditionally loved. That is what we experience before we left God/ Home and that is what we wanted to receive from our parents here to feel whole and complete.

When working on a painful and limiting emotional issue it is imperative that we the first time when it happened. Even if you were pre-verbal that memory is there and can be shared if we request it. In the Inner Child work we access our emotional body by connecting with the wounded, hurt, angry and frightened child within who longs to talk to us, longs for love, comfort and understanding. We can become the unconditionally loving parent to our little child within and literally recreate childhood, healing painful memories and releasing those that are fun, carefree and loving. They are inside as well, wishing to be expressed, but suffocated by the more prevalent and domineering hurtful memories.

By communicating with and offering love to that precious child within, your inner child, your emotional self, can release the pain, fear and anger and remember how to laugh, dance, sing and play as we all did at one time or another as children. Your commitment to love, honour, respect and cherish your inner child will bring you a joy and freedom you could never have imagined.

As well as specializing in it as a counsellor, I have used it on myself for 25 years and the results are amazing in terms of the amount of joy I have created and allowed in my life.

New Knowledge For A New Year

I

t’s traditional to make New Year resolutions, usually resolving to do something like lose weight or stop smoking. This year, why not decide once and for all to learn something about family law, especially the law around separation and divorce?

Even after working as a mediator in the family law field for almost 37 years I am still surprised at the amount of false family law information out there.

Whether this is due to watching American TV shows, or simply listening to a friend describe (inaccurately) what happened to someone they know who separated, there seems to be an abundance of inaccurate information floating around. If knowledge is power, then there are a lot of powerless people dealing with separation and divorce in Ottawa.

In the spirit of the season, I will be hosting a FREE two – hour family law seminar at the end of January when I will be talking about the law of Ontario as it relates to separation and divorce. Some of the topics I will be covering include: -parenting issues after separation -is joint custody always best for children?

-dividing up assets and debts -special treatment of the matrimonial home -how pensions get divided upon separation -the effect of gifts and inheritances -spousal support (how much? and how long?)

-is the law different for common – law couples?

-child support -separation agreements -marriage contracts -cohabitation agreements -getting a divorce -mediation as a process This seminar is for anyone interested in knowing more about family law, but it may be of particular interest to two groups of people: 1. Couples who are thinking of separating. This is a time when many couples feel most vulnerable to fears and anxieties around their children and their financial arrangements. I have found that even a little accurate knowledge goes a long way towards easing these fears.

2. Mental health professionals who work with separating individuals. Knowledge of the basics of the laws that deal with separation and divorce may be useful in understanding patients’ concerns.

I will provide useful handouts to all registrants. I will also leave ample time for a Q & A session at the end,

Divine Will for 2016 and Beyond

by Amâeil (Melinda Urban RIHR) Healing with Divine heart to awaken the deep truth within.

W

e have forces on the earth right now that are counting on humanity to stop paying attention to the fine print so to speak. They would prefer that we not watch for the discrepancies and misalignments with truth. The deception and distraction that they use to try to capture our minds are configured to ensure that nothing so detrimental happens that it makes them visible, while at the same time they can decidedly move forward in their plan.

Let’s look at the migrant crisis as an example. While it’s absolutely possible that this situation will bring many people together and unite different cultures, religions, and states of consciousness, it is also being used to induce mass fear. The message about the Muslim world is misleading. It is a manipulation of the energies to ensure that many do not ask with discernment, “Who or what created the situations from which the refugees flee?”

The term “false flag” refers to a covert operation that is intentionally designed to deceive and divert our attention away from those who actually planned and executed an event, by blaming another entity, group or nation and making it appear as though it was carried out by them. The false flags that abound now, including last November’s Paris attacks, serve as triggers of trauma timelines to keep playing out the same agenda so that the NAA (negative alien agenda) can keeping feeding upon these chaos and fear energies. These false flags are designed to trick the mind into believing that our reality is beyond repair and the only response is stricter controls on our freedom. This is the problemreaction-solution formula that the controllers use.

However, we can override these timelines by aligning with Divine will…..For the full article, please visit www.melindaurban.com or www.tone.ca.

Everyone Is Afraid of Love

E

veryone is afraid of love. You’ve experienced this scary, vulnerable love when you first met that person and fell madly in love. You certainly feel this kind of love if you are a parent. Some nights, I lie down beside my daughter and I watch her sleep. I am totally overwhelmed with love for her. And sometimes I get scared. I think, “Oh my God, I hope nothing ever happens to her...I hope she’s always safe and loved and healthy and happy.” And amidst these thoughts, the fear comes up. Deep, deep love can do that.

When the fear comes up, we tend to contract. We collapse, energetically. This is what fear does to us.

When you are hit with those overwhelming and tremendous feelings of love, walk into it with an open heart. Keep your heart open even in the face of that fear. Let that love permeate your cells, your blood, your organs, your mind, your everything.

This is what enlightenment is. Not allowing the illusions of fracture and loss and betrayal to overshadow us. No. It is to allow that grand love within us to overshadow EVERYTHING. It is to take that fearful voice inside of you and bring it into your heart and expand it. We expand it into love.

The truth is, we can never ‘get rid’ of anything. Nothing. Nada.

But we have the ability to transform anything. And that is what we agreed to do when we came here. We agreed to see our shit for what it is: Shit. Nonsense. EGO. And we agreed and actually brought the strength with us to transform it.

We don’t transform through intellectual processes. Sorry folks. It would be so easy to do it that way, wouldn’t it? We could just plop down in the nearest shrink’s office (not to diminish shrinks...there are some wonderful ones out there) and analyze and intellectualize the shit out of our neuroses. But we’d walk out with the same neuroses that we came in with.

The key to this is transformation.

We take our fears - in this case, our fears of love (and I’ll be honest with you...it’s the only fear that actually exists) and we look it square in the eye. We really, really look at it. We have compassion and...wait for it...love, for these unconscious parts of us, and we thank them for coming to teach us.

And then we gather that fearful energy and bring it into our hearts. We allow the largeness and the allencompassing nature of our hearts to literally cleanse and transform these fears. In other words, we bring LOVE to the fear.

This is an organic process that, when done with sincerity and total surrender, complete transformation takes place. I’ve written before about an experience that I had with this. About 6 years ago, I went through

a depression. I had never been depressed before and was taken aback at how defeated and sad and numb I felt. As an energy healer, I proceeded to pull out every tool in my toolkit in order to attempt to fix this depression. I just wanted it to go away.

One day, I was sitting alone in my house and I felt that familiar sadness bubble up. I started to feel hysterical, trying to figure out how to make it all go away. This voice inside of me said, “Stop Ann. Just let it bubble up.” So I did. I sank right into the feeling that was, once again, overwhelming me. I sank and I sank and I sank. I was no longer fighting it. I literally felt myself go down into a place within myself that I had never quite touched. And when I got there, the most curious thing happened.

I fell into bliss. In the total surrender of the sadness (and in surrendering, I was loving myself completely) it completely transformed into bliss. The depression never returned. That doesn’t mean that I still don’t have upsetting moments or days, even. I still struggle with certain aspects of myself and I still question myself all the time.

But the depression has never returned. And most days I am able to make contact with that space where bliss resides, even if for a moment.

So take your fears and be willing to transform them into something infinite and conscious and loving. I believe that is what our fears have come to do. They are invitations to return to love.

“When I was 7 years old I got really, really sick. I would be sick for the next 20 years. Conventional medicine could only help me to manage my symptoms. I was looking for a way out. I knew there were other options. Over the next decade (and to this day) I have completely transformed my health and my mindset. I learned how to release old, unrelenting trauma. I saw that this body and mind of mine were completely moldable. Nothing was written in stone.

In fact, being sick for so long was like an invitation to come and see what was possible. I changed my mind, changed my diet and stepped into my fullest potential. I’m still working, overcoming, fine-tuning.

It’s my favorite pastime. I’ve been there. And now I’m here. Wanna join me?”

Creating the Foundation for Good Health By: Judy Spence, RN, ND(QC)

I

am sure you expect me to tell you that the foundation of good health is eating right, sleeping well and taking vitamins and supplements, as needed, and you would not be far wrong. These are without question some very necessary tools in the nature’s medicine cabinet.

However, based on my over 35 years of experience and training, I, as many of my colleagues will tell you to get on top of microbes that may be weakening you various systems, like muscular-skeletal, glandular, digestive and immune systems. Microbes that we carry within may inflame the joints (yeasts, viruses, Lyme’s disease, etc.), cause ulcers (H. Pylori), over-grow and cause leaky gut, cause toe nails to get thick and horny and curl, cause eczema, cause turmoil (dopamine) with one’s moods by interfering with neurotransmitter formation (c.difficile, yeasts) and can cause juvenile diabetes (Coxsacki, EV68), dandruff and itchy scalp (yeasts) and can lead to cancer formation.

The majority of people who come to see have been suffering from weeks to months and in many cases for years. The majority of people whether they are coming to see me for allergy, or for pain and other chronic conditions have underlying yeast issues as a result from too much sugar in their diet, as over-growth from antibiotic use or from a lack of probiotics in their diet.

Whereas some viruses are aggressive and cause overt cold and flu symptoms, others are retro viruses and remain in the body for years causing damage to tissues like the joints behind the scene, so to speak.

Parasites can kill and some can remain in the body for years or decades causing chronic ailments. Bacteria tend to be aggressive and will cause acute issues and yet, those like the spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi can remain active in your body for decades and like its cousin, tuberculosis, this bacterium can corkscrew its way into different organs causing symptoms based on the organ (brain, joints, etc.) that it infects.

We suggest to our patients that they consider cleansing their bowels with coffee enemas or to see a hydro colon therapist for a few sessions and to consider herbal tinctures and other supplements that are appropriate for their particular situation and that they re-populate their digestive tract with probiotics. In this way, they are able to create a strong foundation for health. As the New Year is upon us, there is no time like the present to get your intestinal house in order.

At the NAET Clinics of Ottawa and of the Outaouais, I use computerized testing to assess the health of the organ-meridians and to determine what supplements

ttawa, Ontario– January 4th, 2016, the 3rd World Hypnotism Day in Ottawa will take place. And with New Year resolutions facing us, the timing is perfect for World Hypnotism Day. Learn how to beat the Resolution Blues and succeed at your goals.

& workshops helping people to stop smoking & lose weight and clearing the air and removing the myths and misconceptions of hypnotism while explaining the many benefits it brings. Proceeds from the events will be going to the Ottawa Food Bank.

Now it’s time to come out and learn more about how hypnotism can help you, especially for your New Years resolutions.

For further information, interview or WHD events in the Ottawa area, please contact:

World Hypnotism Day has proven to be one of the most impressive displays of professionalism and sharing of knowledge and skills by hypnotists around the world. Ottawa hypnotist Dr Luke M. Howard will be giving talks, interviews,

“I Can Make YouStop Stop Smoking in One Hour”Hour” “I Can Make You Smoking in One If you’re having trouble kicking the Evil Habit Dr. Luke Michael Howard can transform even the most ardent smoker into a healthy non-smoker IN JUST ONE HOUR.

Dr. Luke Michael Howard, PhD

Dr. Luke, owner of the LUKEnosis Complete Mind Therapy organization, is a Smoking Cessation Specialist, has a Masters degree in Hypnotherapy as well as a Doctorate in Psychology.

Dr. Luke has been studying Hypnosis for over 16 years now and has trained all over the world. After over a decade, Dr. Luke is still the youngest person

18

certified by the American Board of Hypnotherapy.

Dr. Luke has been featured in all forms of media such as Tone Magazine, CTV Morning Live, and CBC Radio.

He has developed an advanced hypnotherapy technique that turns weak willed smokers into empowered Non-Smokers in just one hour. He says “This technique is so powerful we are achieving a 95% success rate. This is incredible when you think that patches are only about 16% successful.

We are so confident in the success of this treatment that we offer a free backup session for the remaining 5%.

In fact, if after the session any one should need an extra session, it’s theirs, FREE OF CHARGE.” Dr. Luke explains, “This powerful breakthrough technique combines the latest discoveries in hypnosis and the new science of personal achievement known as Neuro Linguistic

Programming. This takes the power of hypnosis to a new level in helping people take back control of their lives.”

Many local doctors are so impressed by the power of hypnosis that they are now referring many of their patients to Dr. Luke for his Accelerated Change Stop Smoking Programme. Dr. Luke says, “I am currently building a Doctors Referral Network to keep local GP’s informed of my developments and to keep them informed of their patients’ progress.

Many celebrities, professional business people, nurses and housewives have benefited from stopping smoking with hypnosis, SO CAN YOU! The good news is that this incredible method of stopping smoking is available locally. The bad news there usually is a two or three week waiting list for an appointment – but even the medical profession believes it’s worth waiting for.

“I walked out a nonsmoker!”

Caroline had been a smoker for the majority of her lifenearly 30 YEARS! She had tried every type of stop-smoking aid possible, tried using ‘will power’ to quit cold turkey but to no avail-that is until she met Dr. Luke. She recently sent him this follow up email: “I promise I will totally do a video testimonial for you in the future though, as the hypnosis TOTALLY worked...not only have I not smoked...I have not even WANTED to!!! It really is amazing” Check out more testimonial videos on: www.lukenosis.com and you can contact Dr. Luke at LUKEnosis to arrange an appointment at 613-8785874.

The Power of Symbolism and Allegory

Who is the Egyptian Lion Goddess Sekhmet?

S

ekhmet is very misunderstood. She is a Warrior archetype; Goddess of Destruction, the most feared in all of Africa. Africa is the cradle of all of civilization which means that all pale skinned Caucasians actually all descent from the Black race, from the mother Black land, Kemet (Egypt) so Sekhmet resonates deep within the molecular structure of our DNA, no matter the color of our skin, culture, gender, orientation, or religious beliefs. It is true that She is Mistress of Dread and Lady of Slaughter. She was born through a bursting flame that came out from the Eye of RA (the Sun). Sekhmet was sent to earth by the Gods to clean up and restore the Balance of Ma’at. Aside from being a Warrior, She is also Hunter. Guardian. Mother. Daughter. Eye of the Sun and Arbiter of Justice.

merging as one whole. Wholeness, derives from the word “Wholistic” or “Holistic,” and comes from the Greek word “Holos.” Meaning: seeing reality as composed of integrated wholes, whose properties cannot be reduced to smaller units. Sekhmet, the Alchemical Purifier is the embodiment of wholeness.

She may be a dark archetype but She is not negative Sekhmet is in service to Truth and restores the Balance of Ma’at within and without, which corresponds to Law Order Justice and Truth and, wholeness is the definition of the Alchemical Marriage.

Interested in Inner-Alchemy?

Alchemical gatherings starting February 8th This alchemical container is about peeling layers as we journey to make contact with the deeper levels of consciousness. We gather to honour our darkness in service to our greatness, to attune with our highest selves and with one another, to transmute our lead into purest gold, and to celebrate the beauty of our accomplishments.

Lead = ego/ story/ blockages/ limitations Gold = illumination/ self realization/ self mastery.

Sekhmet represents an alchemical catalyst within us and as solar deity Her only purpose is to purify by fire, to destroy illusion (ego) in order to live in Truth.

Just like Shiva, Durga or Kali in the Hindu tradition, Sekhmet destroys what does not serve us. She burns away the toxic impurities in our minds and hearts.

Since Sekhmet represents transformation/alchemy, purification/fertilization, and regeneration/renewal She is also connected to the fiery Life Force called Kundalini energy, and we bathed in Kundalini energy for nine months in neonatal.

I am shining light onto Sekhmet because She is rising within our collective consciousness in many ways. We see Her presence in the synchronicity we’ve been living in Canada since the election of October 2015. We are privileged to be witnessing such a positive wave never seen before in the history of politics. Have you noticed that Justin Trudeau chooses to mirror collaborative and transparent leadership? He chose a gender Balanced cabinet, and he chooses to implicate Sophie, his spouse, as much as possible. This reflects alchemical balance.

Gender balance corresponds to the Yin and Yang symbol, which indicate two equal opposite parts

ell’s palsy is a condition where the nerve that controls the facial muscles becomes swollen or compressed, causing sudden facial paralysis or weakness on one side of the face and making it difficult to smile or close the eye on the affected side. Symptoms may include facial droop and difficulty with facial expressions, pain behind or in front of the ear on the affected side, sounds that seem louder on the affected side, headaches, loss of taste, and changes in the amount of tears and saliva the body produces.

The nerve that controls the facial muscles passes through a narrow corridor of bone on its way to the face. With Bell’s palsy, this nerve becomes inflamed and swollen, usually from infection with a virus, and gets pinched in this tight corridor. The most common virus that causes Bell’s palsy is herpes simplex, the virus that causes cold sores.

Western medical treatment may include medications such as corticosteroids or antiviral drugs, exercise and massage, and in very rare cases, surgery to relieve the pressure on the facial nerve. It’s also very important to protect the eye on the affected side, using eye drops and eye salves to prevent the eye from drying out and causing permanent damage.

Chinese medicine (TCM) takes a slightly different approach to Bell’s palsy. Bell’s palsy can arise when the body is left vulnerable because of what we call a qi-energy deficiency. Our qi-energy is what powers all of our body’s normal functions, and a shortage of qi-energy naturally will have an effect on our body’s ability to function at its optimum health. A qi-energy vacuity is a pattern that develops slowly over time, and can be caused by lifestyle factors that deplete the body, such as a diet of incorrect foods, overwork, or chronic stress.

Acupuncture can offer Bell’s palsy sufferers a quicker and more complete recovery. Treatment promotes the flow of qi-energy and blood to relieve the rigidity and paralysis of the facial muscles and to supply them with a sufficient flow of energy and blood for healing.

MUSIC MEDITATIONS

Debbie Danbrook am a musician who specializes in music for healing, meditation, relaxation and also music that helps to open, clear and balance our chakras and our energy field.

I was recently approached by a University of Toronto student with an interesting question: “How do you differentiate between the performance of classical music and your work with the Shakuhachi flute? I am interested in writing about musicians involved in healing performing.”

This is a huge question that really digs deep into what Healing Music is. To answer, I am a healer using music as my vehicle for offering healing energy to my listeners.

The Shakuhachi is an ideal instrument to do this with.

It was originally played only by Zen Monks as a type of Zen called ‹Suizen› or breathing Zen. The Shakuhachi is a spiritual tool that just happens to have a beautiful and haunting sound which touches our heart and soul. (As an aside, the Shakuhachi also has only been played by men, and I am the first woman to have the mastered this unique and very difficult flute!)

I have taken this Zen technique of ‘Suizen’ into live performances that I call Music Meditations or sometimes when playing with another, called Music Ceremonies.

During these Meditations the participants will either sit or if the space allows they will lie on the floor, in nests of mats, blankets and pillows, completely relaxed.

We start with a few words of welcome and grounding.

The healing energy is allowed to build naturally, inviting the energy of our Angels and Guides, the elementals and all energy that is safe, clear and right for our Musical offering at that time.

I have offered these meditations around the world – in Japan at my temple Hozanji, in Rwanda at the Genocide Memorial, in at Druid›s Temple in Yorkshire.....

I continue to offer the meditations regularly in my home town of Toronto and my second home of Ottawa. I am often joined by a fellow musician and am blessed and lucky to have the wonderful

I

Mark Daniel playing with me on Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and chimes.

And I hope that this article will help the University of Toronto student with her question! I have taught in the past at this University and I am grateful for all that I learned, offered and experienced there.

I hope to see you at an upcoming event!

Lots of love, Debbie Danbrook My next Ottawa Music Ceremony will be held at the lovely Kalyana Yoga Shala on January 9th, 2016, 7:00pm, playing with Mark Daniel. We will have an intention to offer at this event, ‘Watering Seeds’.

During this event we will invite and welcome in healing energies that will offer help to nourish the seeds we are planting at the beginning of the new year. Seeds of love and hope and peace. Seeds to help encourage us in our daily lives and seeds to help us flourish during the coming year. I hope that you can join us to help bring in the wonderful new year, 2016! www.healingmusic.com www.kalyanayoga.ca

Laura’s Numerology News For January 2016 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

How to calculate your personal monthly number for January Add the day of your birth to the month of your birth and then add the number 1 to this number. You always add double digits together in numerology to reduce to a single number. (Example - birthday of Jan. 5 – Jan. (1 month) 5 (day) added together = 6 then add this month’s number which 2. Then add 6+2=8. You would read point number 8 if this was your birthday. If you still have trouble, email me Lbaird@istar.ca 1. Wonderful new opportunities or changes could be in your face right now. Can you see them? Look for them! Be brave and take a leap of faith into this New Year. You could find a short term contact or job that will transform later in the year. Go for it!

2. Are you looking for a new business or perhaps even a new love? Open your eyes wide and get serious as this is the best influence. Bait your hook and get it in the water ASAP. The year will start out slow but pick up later.

3. It will be tough to keep your head together and remain focused this month. First of all, finish the commitments from last year, then weed out the junk, and only then, take on more. Focus is the key word.

4. Give your accountant a shout to help set you up with a financial plan for the year. Left alone you might blow your wad on mindless pursuits. Make a decision to save your money now, so that you can take most of the summer off.

5. Did you factor in a bit of extra fun, last year? I sure hope so, because the fun stops here and now. This is a hardcore rebuilding year, on all fronts. What need fixing your life? Make friends with hard work and lots of it in 2016. Get serious and get focused.

6. Are you in transition in your home or office? There could be some really big changes on the home front, so hang on to your hat? Your life is in flux for the whole year, but these changes are in the area of “domestic things” in Jan. 7. It is time to get ready for a very, very busy year. You must place your focus on “YOU”, first. You will need mega energy to be there for everyone else for the balance of the year.

Fuel up and get ready.

8. The perfect use of this year is to take a yearlong sabbatical and sit on a mountain, alone, so you could focus on “self healing”. I know that this is impossible to do, but you must factor in lots of “me” time, this year, or else.

9. Use this month as a period of major excavation. It is time to clean away the unfinished projects, chores and other poop on your path that you do not want to take with you into the balance of 2016. Habits, attitudes, medical issues and anything else that is clogging your life. Full steam ahead in Feb., so get ready.

Sri Chinmoy Answers Question: How do you view the problems of the world and how do you think they can be solved?

SRI CHINMOY: Problems are everywhere. Each country and each individual has hundreds of problems.

But problems can be solved, should be solved and must be solved by individuals first. For it is the individual mind or capacity that rules each country. If each individual sees that he has hundreds of problems of his own, then he will dive deep into his own problems.

From there, he will come to realise that there is only one problem, and that problem is lack of oneness.

The human way that we can solve world problems is for an individual to feel that his country is like a tree with countless branches, which represent the other countries. A tree without branches is no tree at all. When we see that there are quite a few branches, we appreciate the tree. So, if we can feel that our nation tree has others as branches, and if other countries can also feel the same way, then there will be a feeling of inseparable oneness.

However, from a spiritual point of view, if we want to solve the problems of the world, then there is only one way and that way is to pray and meditate for our conscious oneness with the Will of the Absolute Supreme. If we consciously pray and

meditate, then without fail God’s Will can and will be executed in and through us.

Prayer and meditation can solve all the world problems. If we become one with God’s Will, then we make no mistakes. It is because of our mistakes that we create problems for ourselves. What is the mistake from which we are constantly suffering? Our only mistake is that we have made friends with ignorance. But we can change our friendship. God is there to help us and guide us. So from a divine point of view, all world problems can be solved only by prayer and meditation, which are nothing short of our constant communion, or conversation, with God Visit www.srichinmoylibrary.com for further writings by Sri Chinmoy.

PATHWORK:

THE CREATIVE ENERGY OF WORDS

by Louise Stevenson t the next in the monthly series of Pathwork Open Lectures on January 13th, we will continue to explore this season’s theme of creativity, looking this time at how we create with and through the words we speak.

Remember the old playground chant ‘Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me”? Not so, says the Pathwork Lecture The Power of the Word !

What we create, what we speak into manifestation may be positive or negative, healing or hurting, but create we do! The lecture says the following about our words: “The word is...the creative agent…that creates movement and a systematic chain reaction, one link following another until the word becomes deed, fact and finished creation.”

Our words may be spoken out loud or inwardly; they are often uttered unconsciously, by some inner voice we are not aware of (and may not care to be aware of). And the results mold our lives and affect our relationships in ways that confuse us, appearing to be coincidence or a matter of luck.

The Pathwork invites us to begin the work of tuning in to those inner voices, raising them to awareness, seeing how they often contradict our conscious wishes and aspirations. This process will enable us to see our creations more clearly, which is actually a wonderful discovery! We then rejoice in our positive creations and start taking responsibility for the negative. We can begin to re-arrange our vocabulary, working to understand and heal what causes us to speak negatively, and bringing out and developing our positive words.

At the lecture evening, we will explore this concept of the creative word in some detail, and take some time to begin listening for the inner voices that are influencing

Pine Gate Closing (…for a while….)

Ian Prattis Dear friends and gentle people, Pine Gate Mindfulness Community will be closed indefinitely from Friday January 1, 2016 – onwards.

I have interesting challenges ahead with three surgeries to replace both knees and one hip. The entire process will take some time. I view this as an opportunity for personal retreat and hope to enhance the quality of my consciousness during this process. I welcome the necessary pause, as I have been teaching the dharma non-stop since being in India in 1996. The surgeries and rehabs provide a place to stop, re-think and ultimately encompass more.

I will emerge from the cave now and then, but not frequently. No doubt you will find my humor and writings trickle through to Facebook. I will be taking a sabbatical from Tone Magazine and hope to resume my

elcome to 2016! Before you start thinking of what you want to accomplish this year, I encourage you to spend time making a list of all the successes that you had in 2015. What milestones did you reach? How many new clients did you attract? What got better in your personal life? Make that list and look for success in all areas of your life. Give yourself a “High Five” for accomplishing these! Do the Happy Dance and scream like you just won the gold medal at the Olympics!

Success is a series of small gains that you string together over time. These small incremental gains do matter and they must be recognised. These gains help build the foundation for the future “wins” that you will have down the road.

Napoleon Hill wrote about this well over 80 years ago and he called it The Law of Increasing Returns. Every success that we have, all of the so called failures that come our way are only there to move us along to our final destination. They help build that important foundation. We are obliged to learn from them and bring them into our success consciousness. Congratulate yourself for working on yourself, for developing an attitude of prosperity as opposed to an attitude of scarcity.

I know you are doing the work because you are reading this article.

Success breeds success so get busy making 2016 a fantastic year!

Blood Pressure Insights

W

hen I started out as a young naturopath in 1983, I was fortunate to practice under the indomitable Leo Roy. Dr. Roy had been a medical doctor who later became an N.D. and he was rigorous in finding out exactly what was going on with his patients, down to the minutest details. I remember chafing under his perfectionism.

Yet when I look back at my practice, much of what I did was learned from Dr. Roy, who has since passed away, sadly. One of those things was a unique way of looking at blood pressure, which became one of my guide posts for determining how to treat my patients.

Blood pressure is composed of an upper number or systolic pressure in the arteries when the heart is contracting and a lower number, or diastolic pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest. Normal blood pressure is considered to be 120/80 or less.

Sunday, January 17, 2-4 on Yoga* * preregistration required

Dr. Roy taught that the upper number represents the strength of the adrenal glands, with 115 being optimal (after lying down for a few minutes), higher being overstimulated and lower being tired. When the patient sits up and the blood pressure is taken again, the systolic number is supposed to go up by 5 to 10 points.

If it goes higher, it indicates overstimulation, but if it actually drops, there may be serious burnout. There can be both fatigue and overstimulation.

The lower number represents the health of the liver, optimal being around 65 after lying down. Higher shows liver congestion and the need to cleanse while lower reflects liver weakness and the need to build it—especially before undertaking a cleanse. On sitting up, the number should again rise 5-10 points. If it rises more, there is congestion and possible reactivity (allergies, hemorrhoids, excess heat) and if it drops, there is a definite need to give regenerative therapies.

Congestion and weakness can co-exist.

There are many subtleties arising out of monitoring blood pressure and it can be a remarkably accurate guide to a patient’s progress. Thank you Dr. Roy!

Celestial Planting Calendar for 2016

by Rosemary Tayler iodynamic agriculture is all about working with natural rhythms to enhance the quality of organic produce. These natural rhythms have been known and used for thousands of years by traditional agrarian communities. Rudolf Steiner (1869-1925) reintroduced these principles and since then biodynamic farmers around the world have refined those practices.

In particular, Maria Thun (1922- 2012) spent over 50 years researching how lunar forces affect plant growth.

She found that plants that were predominantly root crops such as potatoes, radishes and turnips produced better quality produce when they were planted with the Moon in one of the Earth constellations, Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn. Similarly plants that were predominantly leaf crops such as lettuce, spinach and kale had a more productive crop when they were planted when the Moon was is Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces, all Water constellations. She also found that plants grown for their flowers, namely roses and broccoli, grew better when they were planted when the Moon was in an Air constellation (Gemini, Libra or Aquarius). Finally, plants gown for their seed quality such as oats and sunflower responded best when they were grown when the Moon was in Aries, Leo or Sagittarius, all Fire constellations.

Knowing when the Moon is in each of these constellations is the first step towards determining when to work with each of these plant groups. For over 50 years, Marie Thun produced a calendar geared towards farmers and gardeners which contained these and other relevant astronomical events.

Last year a group of biodynamic farmers used Thuns constellation calculations and produced a planting calendar for Eastern Ontario that can be adapted for any time zone around the world.

The Celestial Planting Calendar for 2016 is a beautifully illustrated, 40-page, full-colour calendar which features

daily lunar and planetary rhythms and aspects conducive for planting, weeding and harvesting. As well, there are interesting articles on a wide variety of topics such as the Four Elements, Nutrition and Healthy Food Habits, and Cultural Beliefs Related to Trees.

Dentistry’s Apology

by George Paul Greenacre

A summary of the book’s concepts and chapters Chapter 1-The Apology The Apology is simple “we vastly underestimated the importance of your oral health to your total health!!”

We need to correct this idea in the public’s mind to benefit the public, our patients..

We did not realize how critically important the bite , jaw alignment and action, the tongue, the gums and the teeth are to our total health including our structural alignment and our mental, respiratory, neurological and emotional health. It also affects the birthing process and the newborn baby’s Apgar scores.

About 100 years ago one of the world’s greatest physician, Sir William Osler, said “The Mouth is the Mirror of all Disease” Sir William Osler was right!

There are over 100 diseases that can be dramatically improved by achieving good dental health, good gum health and good jaw growth , function and posture.

Thus this apology is needed.

This newfound appreciation of Oral Health is also a reflection of the new Medical-Dental–Psychological Philosophy of practicing Interdisciplinary ,Integrative or collaborative Medicine.

Know this! Everything is connected to everything.

In fact your jaws, your tongue your teeth and your gums are critical to your blood stream health, your airway health, you digestive tract health, your neurological health, your pregnancy outcome, your stress level and your mental health.

Dr. Alexander Leeds, presidential physician said “When completely developed this treatment will be capable of revising every diagnosis, treatment procedure and prognosis in the medical world.” He had his neurology and his airway dramatically improve when he had his jaws rebalanced late in life. It transformed him. He further said. “This is the greatest aid in the treatment of chronic symptoms that I have come upon in almost 50 years of medical practice.”

We also underestimated how powerful the fear of dentistry is for patients. Some fear the needles, the sounds, the smells and the experience of dentistry. We also apologize for this insensitivity. It is just not natural to have someone working in your mouth, your personal space. The mouth is very much the centre of your emotional –neurological system. Impression materials scare people. Gagging is a huge fear and a huge distress to some patients. We totally underestimated how much stress people can suffer in our offices. This merits another apology. We all need to practice more caring for our patients anxieties and emotions.

Nitrous oxide and laughing gas help manage these situations for many.

Self talk relaxation methods help and medical hypnosis can help profoundly.

Several Pharmaceutical short term management methods also help.

We apologize because we had no idea that your ability to achieve deep relaxation through your sympathetic nervous system depended upon good mandibular or jaw balance. Learn this! A healthy jaw joint makes no noise .The front four teeth should never contact when you bite on your back teeth. Your primary bite contact should be made on the larger more resistant back teeth or molars. The back teeth have larger roots for structural resistance to the force of your initial bite or contact or sleep grinding.. Know this we all deny this but we all grind and clench at night.

Your front teeth should only contact when you move your lower jaw slightly reaches forward for incising or biting food.

The wisdom teeth issues of pain and crowding were unknown in early man because early man had plenty of room for the wisdom teetn. This is because the face grew larger before we changed our diet, farming and breastfeeding practices. Since we invented sugar the human body has suffered greatly from this non food that seduces so many with its sweet taste. Whoever invented it should be vilified daily in our schools and media..

Because we are the only mammal to have willingly changed our diet and feeding practices the human jaws and face are shrinking in many dimensions. Since the jaws do not grow as wide and as large as they used to grow we now get impacted wisdom teeth, crowded front teeth and misaligned jaws and bad bites. All this has happened because; our diet and breastfeeding habits have changed for the worse. Primitive man never had TMJ problems and never needed orthodontics.

We also apologize because we had no idea that the airway our breathing, our snoring and our sleep apnea issues are also largely caused by the improper growth and alignment of the jaws. Dr Jerald Simmons M.D. said “At least 10% of all people suffer a significant degree of obstructive breathing…these patients can have fatigue.

They can also have Heart attacks and strokes.”

January 2016

e

Dentistry in the old days used to be about extractions, fillings and perhaps some gum treatments and some orthodontics. Now it is about the development of the lower jaw to improve the lower airway and expansion or distraction of the upper jaw to improve the upper airway . Also it is about optimization of your autonomic nervous system. We have discovered that balancing the jaws and improving the trigeminal-tmj system will do wonders for the healthy relaxed functioning of your neck your cranial nerves , your digestion and autonomic nervous system. Thus we can create better airway ,relaxation and digestion appliances to enhance your overall breathing and health,and your head and neck posture and diminish your head and neck pain.

In fact when we do a realignment or orthopaedic correction of the jaw posture we witness a neurological correction and a neck postural correction at the same time this transformation of the face and jaws is in reality total facial-airway rejuvenation. Indeed it is a face lift without surgery.

Gum diseases are serious whole body infections that influence our digestive tract maladies and penetrate the bloodstream to visit every organ and tissue in our bodies. This has never been fully appreciated until recently .This concept and information was actually published in the American Heart Journal in 1965 by respected M.D., Dean of Tulane medical school Dr. Charles Bass.

“In almost all ailments of the heart by bacteria the source of the infection is known to be the pathologic

I believe that at some time in the future, leading cardiologists will wonder In retrospect how information so needed by their patients could have been overlooked or neglected for so long.” We swallow quarts of infected saliva daily.

Dentistry and medicine are on a collision course because our patients need more integrative diagnosis and treatment. Total health cannot exist without good oral health No physician can practice good medicine without a good general knowledge of modern dentistry.

No patient can claim to have good health without a healthy mouth. In summary here are the thoughts of Dr Marcus Gitterle of Wimberley Texas “The OralSystemic connection is about integration. Who would guess that the data would lead us to the knowledge that heart attack, strokes, premature births, rheumatic diseases and perhaps many more conditions would be intimately linked to oral health and hygiene?”

Indeed I can assure you that over hundred diseases can be linked to your oral health.

ELEVATE Channeled by Lisa Virtue

T

he New Year is especially interesting this time around. Much has taken place. There have been growth spurts of unparalleled proportion (in your day and age). So many of you have reached new heights of spiritual wisdom. It is indeed the early days of a new era for humankind (and those you affect on this world and beyond). We are proud to see how you seek newness for yourselves and greater growth for humanity. A new era of light-filled hearts is here, burgeoning.

We in non-physical, and those in an elevated state of physical, wish you great success in all that you are now desiring to accomplish. We see how your trend is towards the goodness of life for all, and less toward the bitternesses that have divided you for so many centuries. As you elevate yourselves, you will find a greater harmony that pervades all things. This is the predominant energy that exists, after all. The separation you are all experiencing is no longer the dominant way.

Separation exists for you to have experience, certainly, in knowing more ways of being. It is now a choice more so than it has been.

Knowing this, elevate yourselves and release patterned choices. Choose to allow newness for yourselves. Challenging though it may seem, the energies surrounding you are becoming so light that you will find less effort needed to shift and change.

You are so supported by the spirit and elevated realms
