We look forward to seeing you there!

Thai yoga therapy, also known as nuad boran or nuat Thai, is a traditional therapeutic Thai massage technique that is thousands of years old. Though the exact origins are not really known, practitioners trace their roots to Buddha’s personal physician who was a renowned healer. In the ancient tradition of Thai medicine, the primary goal was maintaining health and well-being using a natural, holistic approach. At the heart of this approach was the use of massage therapy.

Thai medicine is based on energy flow that exists through the body along 10 major channels. Illness is believed to be a result of a blockage of these channels. Thai yoga therapy training teaches the theory of the lines and how to massage these energy channels, or meridians. Other theories explored when learning this form of therapy are the principles of energetic healing as well as the practice of meditation.

Thai Yoga Therapy will be offered soon @ Yoga Kula Project. Call Trudee for details: 435 659 6950.

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you’re familiar with the term and concept of vasana or ancient wound. The focus in this article is to provide a practical tool to assist and empower those who feel overwhelmed or incapacitated by these soul wounds. Know that you’re not alone. All awakening humans are experiencing vasanas to some degree. They’re a natural part of the Ascension/Transformation process, it’s crucial to understand that we must resolve these ancient wounds for our soul’s evolution. We absolutely can learn how to cope with and release these wounds.

Our souls are eternal, so we can do the work now or later, more rapidly or at a slower pace. It is our choice and we have already set the scene for our own evolution. There’s no time frame,set on the work. The work will indeed get done; it’s just a matter of whether or not you want to do it now. Because of the Ascension energies there’s added “support” energetically for the processing of these wounds at this time in the history of mankind. This available energy is more noticeable now in our daily lives; often distracting us and draining our resources.   So many of us are lightworkers trying to be of service to the planet at this time, but it can be discouraging when an ancient wound rears up and forces our attention away from our service work.

We must trust and know that this is part of the process, and we have to decide to stand tall thru the pain and discomfort and get through it if we are going to actualize our true potential as light beings.

When experiencing an ancient wound it’s hard sometimes to look inward and to make that intentional connection with our higher self.

We are spirit beings having a human experience, as is so often stated. We are more vast than the human biological organism has the capacity to understand. Imagine you are in every molecule that comprises the universe and then beyond that. And that just about says how vast we are. But here on Earth, we lose the sense of that wonder. The good news is the higher self is available by way of our own minds, once we have summoned the connection.

While experiencing an vasana or ancient wound, however we experience it, we can all agree that it feels pretty darned crappy. These old, painful, often ugly, supressed aspects of ourselves can take our breath away. I have several previous blogs dedicated to this subject in one fashion or another. These techniques can be done anywhere with eyes open or closed, just make sure you’re seated or lying downn during the process.

•Acknowledge that you’re having this experience, and breathe deeply.
•Know and trust that you have the courage to get through it.
•Reach out to your higher self. Simply think or state out loud “Higher self, please be with me now.”
•Notice where in your body, and how you’re experiencing your wound.
•Ask your higher self to assist you in becoming the observer to your experience.
•See yourself as a witness standing to the side of your experience viewing it as a scene without judgment.
•Allow the wound to tell you what it needs. You could ask,“How can I help you heal?”
•Imagine the higher self/observer aspect of self giving the wound what it needs with unconditional love. It could be healing light, sound, a prayer, whatever feels right.
•Ask the wound if there’s anything else that can be done at this time to assist in its healing.
•Now ask that all aspects of self to be combined and integrated into a new whole and healthy you.
Releasing our wounding comes in layers. It’s important to be patient and kind with ourselves as we travel the terrain of this wild roller coaster ride of self healing. Know that our bodies are like a repository for all this life’s and our past life’s experiences.  As an example, i had a vision several years ago as i was out walking one day. In the memory/vision i saw myself on horseback on a battlefield, another rider approached and suddenly i was impaled with a spear thru the chest. The last thing i felt in that experience was felt once more in THIS physical body as a deep searing pain that went completely through my chest and was felt in my back to the same intensity from that ancient wound. The pain was excruciating for sometime and then it diminished to a dull ache which lasted several days until i released the cellular memory of the past life event. Somehow we carry over these experiences from life to life as an energetic wound or vasana.

When working with these ancient woundings it is always good to affirm something like: I am open to love, to my growth and to the light of my spirit for healing these old wounds.

Blessings on the path, Crazywolf

If you find that you’re in a cycle of repeated patterns and are hitting a wall with frustration, chances are your energetic system is blocked or contracted.  This often happens as a result of trauma, mild or severe, or even simply because of our emotional and mental reactions to what we perceive to be anything other than love from an outside source.

If we’re hurt, our energy bodies contract, which can result in emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual manifestations of dis~ease over time.  The underlying cause is energetic, always.

In a healing session, I utilize a wide range of energetic modalities to locate and transmute the contracted energy.  Some of this energy can even be energy that isn’t ours, but has found a place in us to cling, and it can distort our natural way of being in ways that feel out of alignment with who we are. These energies are removed using a shamanic process called extraction, and they’re transmuted so that they can no longer affect us. 

How do these energies end up stuck to us in the first place?  When we have a physical or emotional shock or hurt, a part of our soul can fragment to protect us from the full force of the hurt.  This is called soul fragmentation.  This leaves a void in our energy body, which is automatically vulnerable to outside energies seeking a place to land.

In our culture, people are tended to by doctors and nurses if their bodies are wounded or ill.  Psychologists help to heal the mental and emotional bodies.  The spiritual, soul malady is neglected, however, and we are left to wonder why we never feel quite ourselves again, or why we are trying to fill the “void” with all manner of addictions.

Shamans have been addressing the whole person for millennia, and have effective and simple ways to bring a person into alignment so that often, something that is stubbornly refusing to heal with medication, counseling, or nutrition, is swiftly healed by a soul retrieval and integration, an extraction, and divination.

In my healing sessions, I use shamanic processes wherever I intuitively feel they are needed.  My sessions with people address their individual and unique needs accordingly, and so they’re not a one size fits all experience.  With thirty years of healing work in my medicine bag, I utilize what’s needed when it’s needed.

My gigantic medicine bag has years of mediumship abilities, psychometry, and psychic skills.  I use a pendulum to dowse as we work together, often clearing past, present, and future life misalignments and opening energy pathways with spiritual response therapy.  As an intuitive using clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairsentience, I will scan someone’s field even from a distance intuitively to see where the blocks are in their system. 

A master coach of decades, I utilize my coaching skills to empower the inner knowing of my clients for a swift and catalytic shift in whatever area they are ready to shift.  This saves time, and money, not to mention the priceless gift of less suffering.

As a priestess, I call in sacred space, higher awareness, archangels, guides, and master teachers and ascended masters to hold the highest vibration possible for our work together. With my background as a white tantric yoga teacher, I have wisdom to draw from that is mystical and rare, which I can impart to assist in the support of your overall well-being.  A certified herbalist and aromatherapist, I also have the exquisite tools of the plant world at my fingertips should someone need a personalized essence to help them integrate as they are healing.

In essence, if you desire to finally heal or shift, and you want the very highest level healer available, you would do well to call on me.  There is no area of spiritual healing work I haven’t studied, and the spirit helpers I work with are the most powerful, loving guides and have worked with me over a multitude of lifetimes and dimensions.

Healing sessions can be done by phone or skype, and so distance is not a challenge.  If you’re finding you are facing some of the blocks that are up now for people in the shift of our planetary vibration, with the biggest personal growth opportunities of our times, message me for an appointment and give yourself a break.  You don’t need to suffer with this by yourself when help is right here.

Rhythm, How’s Yours?

By Laura Toller Gardner

I am proud to unveil my newly evolved column title: Laura Toller Gardner, The Practical Enchantress. And I send arm-fulls of gratitude to my oh-so-talented and generous friend Michelle Fairchild who designed the column’s new branded artwork. Michelle, you are proof that angelic beings walk amongst us! 

Identity is fluid for me — one moment I am clear and grounded about myself as a priestess, author, healer, teacher. In the next breath the rhythms and energy currents change their dance and I question if my life truly resembles any of those definitions I carry in my heart and my head. I find I often resemble the head interpretation much more closely than the one that inhabits my heart.

So here I am yet again, asking no one in particular, yet All of meaning: What’s a liberating thought leader/irreverent mirth maker/soul-full disciple of the Goddess to do?

My dear…Dance, undulate, and follow the sway of my cosmic hips that animate your psyche and your etheric body.

I’m sure I hear a firmly affectionate voice.

Honor your Divine Rhythm.

Our own naturals rhythms — the way our energy body ebbs and flows, expands and contracts — is a core contributor to our authentic identity, and yet it is often overlooked and misunderstood. My personal energetic rhythms don’t conform easily to the modern, corporate culture and yet that is the environment I find myself called to work in now as an executive enchantress.

I am my most creative when the moon is up, and I need rest in the morning hours when the sun rises. I require long periods of tranquil solitude to honor my daily process, self reflect, and energetically self manage; and as an empath I am highly sensitive to the emotions and rhythms of others.

For those of us with the courage and conviction to work from the inside out to effect change in our biggest and most influential institutions, workplace drama, psychic vampires, conforming to non-supportive schedules, and living immersed in a culture that may not be entirely of our choosing is commonplace. It’s therefore not surprising that familiar energetic outcomes can include: energy depletion, the soul-withering belief that we somehow dishonor our highest selves, sorrow, depression,  exhaustion, weight gain, illness, and generalized bitchy snarkiness.

And the truth is that there are energy challenges for one and all. Solopreneurs, parents, agents of healing, poets, peace makers. No one among us is immune.

And we return to the question, “What’s a (fill in your own identity…kick-ass mom, inspired ceramacist, minister of humor…) to do?”

Breathe, move, nourish.

Breathe

The breath is our reminder that Divinity animates all we do, think, say, and achieve. For me rhythmic balance lives a full and glorious life within breath. And no matter what is going on, in whomever’s presence you  or I find ourselves, we can breathe for self-care, for energetic protection and enhancement.

Move

Our own physical movement aligns our rhythm with the cosmic pulse. When you feel emotionally or spiritually crunchy, sway, bounce, bob, flail. Remember the Goddess’s affectionately firm admonishment to follow the sway of my cosmic hips. Dancing our prayers, hugging our healing, walking our indignation, gardening our forgiveness, all change our inner and outer worlds because they transform our energy body.

“A body at rest stays at rest, and a body in motion stays in motion.” Thank you very much, that is Sir Isaac Newton’s First Law of Motion (it pays to be in love with a smokin’ hot physicist!). Sir Isaac must have been a closet energy worker because his insight illuminates the truth that energy flows with motion, and stagnates with constriction.

I am often amazed to realize that when life hits the proverbial fan, I generally raise my shoulders up to my ears ensuring constriction and limited range of motion, my chest tightens limiting the ease of breath, and I freeze in place, locked in a painful energy paralysis prison. No one does any of this to me. I do this to myself.

Overtime I have re-imagined and therefore remade my responses to stress. Now when it’s all going down, I immediately breathe very deeply, envisioning Divine breath filling and cleansing my whole etheric body, cradling and clearing my chakra system and my aura.

Next I sway ever so gently. The swaying motion emulates our experience in utero. Just because we have it all together doesn’t mean that at any moment we can’t lean into our Blessed Mother and allow her to rock us. When we are under stress or what feels like energetic assault and we move, our energy body lightens, expands, and begins to vibrate at a higher frequency.  Now I sway when I problem solve, when I need to soothe myself in the presence of a challenging energy signature (aka a person who is not self-contained and allows their energy body to “reach out and touch me” in an unwelcomed way), and most certainly when I am in ritual circle summoning my energy body to do meaningful work.

Nourish

Finally we come to the concept of nourishing ourselves. What is it that we truly need? I’m not referring to the toxic mimics that our reptilian brain tell us are important.

There are ways to nourish ourselves in every situation, it just takes unflinching self reflection and honesty about who we truly are — the core of our Divine identity — and what supports us to live as expansive, holy beings. For me nourishment includes time alone everyday — even 20 minutes in the office while I quietly and mindfully eat my lunch. I also absolutely require time with my animals when I am fully present and conscious with them, as well as time engaging with nature. Trees and bodies of water are some of the greatest energy balancers and healers for me. I stand with my spine pressed against our 100 year old Magnolia tree and I am filled up in remarkable ways. I also spend a few minutes in the morning with our rose bushes. Since I began engaging with them a few years ago, my sense of psychic smell has increased immensely. Now in addition to clairsentience (clear sensation or feeling) and clairvoyance (clear vision), I am blessed with clairscent (clear scent). It delights me to no end!

Your Unique Rhythm

You are short-changing yourself if your conversations about, and exploration of identity, do not include investigation and honoring of your energetic rhythms.  My wish for you is that you courageously celebrate your unique vibration! I offer these questions to begin or expand your journey. Bright blessings!

1.) What environments, people, circumstances invigorate you? Deplete you? Sedate you?

2.) What times of day do you feel the most alive?

3.) Honoring your body clock, when and how long would you sleep if you had no external limitations or expectations?

4.) When you scan your physical body with your third eye, do you sense or see blockages, tightness, color, objects? How do you interpret what you may sense or see? What information do they offer you?

5.) Do you take on other people’s pain, stress, worry, opinions, emotions? What would happen if you created more energetic separation for yourself?

6.) Do you ever feel emotionally or psychically “violated” by someone else? How do you recover? Do you continue to allow this to happen? Why?

7.) What are the top three things you need on a daily basis to feel fully alive, free, and holy? What is stopping you from giving these to yourself? What are the consequences if you did give them to yourself? If you continued not to?

The Practical Enchantress caught in the act, mirth making.

Laura Toller Gardner

Exploring who I am within the contexts of my diverse and far-roving communities. Who I choose to be, and how I am uplifted…

Notorious author, out-loud wonderer, irreverent observer of the foolish/profound/spooky, earnest path finder and way shower, lover of contagious laughter. That’s today. Tomorrow is likely to be a whole different story.

The best way to pronounce it is like: tie jee chwenn. Be sure to in no way pronounce “quan” as “kwon!” (cringe) Pronounce it as “chwenn.” And due to the fact Chinese is a tonal language, the closest way to pronounce it like a speaker of Mandarin Chinese (normal Chinese dialect) is like: “tie! jee? chwenn?” The initial syllable is spoken with a slipping tone – form of like with a extremely moderate exclamation place. And the final two terms are spoken with a mounting tone – as we do in English at the end of a problem. But do not worry about all that. I’ve just famous it listed here because I’m sorry to see so may possibly people currently being saved in the darkish about what taijiquan suggests and how to pronounce it.

Note that there are other tactics that use the phrase “tai chi” – like “tai chi chih” and other people. But do not confuse these with “tai chi chuan.” Tai chi chuan / taijiquan is the outdated, true Taoist non secular and martial arts self-discipline that is officially identified in China. And certainly, all traditional taijiquan varieties had been produced in China. Taijiquan is considered by the Chinese to be just one of their cultural treasures. Thankfully, since of many generous instructors, the Western entire world has also gained the possibility to partake in this treasure that has enriched the lives of numerous all through the hundreds of years. Could it also enrich yours.

Tai Chi Chuan is the artwork that preaches emptiness. One must go devoid of drive to understand the accurate depth of Tai Chi. And, in Tai Chi, you in no way run out of practically nothing.

One ought to recognize, of program, that there are degrees of emptiness. The starting pupil will have 1 thought regarding this concept, and the superior learn will have a different, and there is lots of place in involving. Certainly, one particular could nearly say there is a unique viewpoint of this great nothingness as there is pupils to perceive it.

At the begin of the art ideas of Tai Chi trigger considerably confusion. The new practitioner tries to get in his possess way, attempts to determine out the mechanistic mother nature of the cosmos, and gradually operates his way by way of confusion. Sooner or later, the starter begins to understand that there is far more to this plan of emptiness than ever he experienced imagined.

Just one can perceive a good nothingness within the entire body. The obvious concreteness of blood and brain provides way to perception. Awareness seeps unhindered by means of the machinations of the seemingly genuine physique.

This is one thing we find out by means of apply. The commencing pupil will become state-of-the-art as response time goes away and commences to go in harmony with the motions of a foe. It is a brief journey, after embarked on, until finally the college student attaches his physique to that of the attackers, and is in a position to attract on the energies of two bodies.

Eventually the place of the body offers way to the knowledge that there is a excellent place open to the the seeker.

It was a beautiful night. The stars were shinning ever so brightly. Light from the moon gazed over my skin and illumined my very being. It was one of those nights were everything seemed so right, so peaceful and carefree. I took it upon myself to state within that I was now ready for my next encounter. I asked my higher self to aid in my spiritual development. At least, I thought I was ready. What I encountered, or should I say experienced, was short of something I’ve read before.

I sat on a chair, an iron chair, to be exact. My sister was next to me as we both occupied the still of the night. I remember hearing the birds chirping. Yes, the birds were singing their song at weird hours of the night. I reached for my pack of cigarettes and what I felt stopped me in my tracks. I honestly became frozen. All stood still, physically, but what was happening etherically, or energetically, avoided the pause. I felt something slide into my left  and right temples. It was so strange that I yelled at my sister. She jumped, as always when I experience something, and told me to relax. She reminded me that nothing is evil and what I was experiencing was for my growth. It was for my development. So, when her reassurance, I allowed it to happen.

The feeling stayed there. It felt almost as if there were to fingers, one in my left temple and the other in my right temple. I moved my head right and they remained. I moved my head to the left and, still, nothing changed. I was freaked. Panic came over me. This wasn’t normal, I thought. I am being controlled by something of the darkness. I hesitated in calling my guides, but managed to do so without causing myself to vibrate an alarming frequency. I was told that everything should be done with love. Yet, calling my guides and angels failed to being a difference in my encounter. Whatever it was remained. So, I took it upon myself to relax and thought about letting it control my head. What could possibly happen, right?

My sister and I went into the house and sat on the couch. She sat right next to me, as this stuff always keeps her on her toes. I asked her to ask a question. She took sometime to think. I demanded she hurry. She asked, “Are you evil?” I went numb and it moved my head back and then forward. My sister jumped and rain to my mother’s room. I wasn’t scared though. Something came over me to the point where I was at peace. I was okay with this being controlling my head. I started to ask questions.

I asked, “Are you an Ascended Master?”

It shook my head back and then forward.

I asked, “Are you a darkworker?”

It shook my head back and then forward.

I asked, “Are you here for my spiritual growth?”

It shook my head back and then forward.

I asked, “Am I a Lightworker?”

It shook my head back and then forward.

I asked, “Are you working for the light?”

It shook my head back and then forward.

I decided I was done with the questions, because I wasn’t sure if I already knew the answers to the questions, or if this being was just messing with me. I got up and went get some water. The feeling stayed there throughout the night and lasted for about a week, or so. The pressure on my temples got stronger and stronger with each day. At time I wouldn’t feel it and at times I would feel it worse than ever. At one point it felt like a helmet, or some kind of hat, was on my head. I am still curious to know what this was all about and what it actually happened.

Has anyone ever experienced anything like this before? My temples never got warm or cold. They just has the feeling of something being stuck within them.

I will write shortly about when this feeling got even worse and what it took for it to go away..

Quantum Energetics Structural Healing differs from the traditional medical models in that there are no invasive procedures, no surgeries, no drugs, and no electronic devices. QEST is a highly structured medical system that works with energy lines in the body to stimulate the body to heal itself, and realign energy disruptions with in the body. QEST therapies are based on the idea that everyone has an energy field that is unique to each one of us. It is that personal energy field that practitioners work with to stimulate natural healing in your body. This belief differs from Conventional Western Medicine since they do not recognize forms of biological energy. Quantum Energetics Structural Therapies are based partly on the theories of Quantum Physics. Quantum Physics has provided scientific proof to the beliefs of electromagnetic energy fields. Every person, cell, organ, meridian, and emotion has a characteristic electromagnetic signature. Quantum Physics also acknowledges the relationships and interactions of energy that is practiced through QEST as a systematic healing process

Quantum Energetics Structural Therapy also employs similar concepts of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. The same meridians mapped out in acupuncture are used as well as the target alarm points to map the energy flow through the body. The target alarm points are located in front of the body and are energetically connected to one another. These Target Alarm Points and Energy Meridian Lines are targeted through healing touch. In this way QEST is very similar to Acupuncture except for the fact that there are no needles used; only healing touch. The Energy Meridians in the body represent the energetic body that is infused with the physical human body.  The energy body is an integrative aspect of QEST and can be seen with Kirlian Photography ( Reuth QEP). Depending on the needs of the patient certain target alarm points and meridians are stimulated through healing touch. There are also positive energetic interactions between the patient’s energetic field and the practitioner’s energetic field that facilitates the release of blocked energy in the patient’s body. The techniques of QEST are used to identify blocked energy in the body to diagnosis and heal the patient. These technical methods included: Muscle Testing, Number Language, Breath, and Human Touch.

The main purpose of QEST is to release blocked energy and deal with energetic disturbances in the body to prevent, treat, and cure a wide range of physical conditions and mental disturbances.  By treating blocked energy in the body this allows for a smooth flow of energy through the body enhancing the body’s natural healing and defense functions. The free flow of energy through the body helps to maintain our spiritual, mental and physical health. Quantum Energetics Structural Therapy also works to seek out the source of the energetic disturbances to eliminate reoccurring negative effects on the body

Causation

Quantum Energetics Structural Therapy treats illnesses based on the theories of Naturalistic Causation. QEST believes that a person’s energetic field can bring on physical illness in the body. These energetic disturbances create observation effects in the body. The energetic disturbances can be caused by environmental factors which include but are not limited to: foods you eat, toxins in the air, radiation, electromagnetic waves (light), other peoples energy. Toxic build up in the body are very common cause especially in the time we are living in now greatly contribute to impeding the flow of the bodies metabolic processes. Also, internally disharmony can be caused by our systems being out of sync. The roots of illness can also be caused by our emotional well-being that can manifest into mental and physical illness. Stress, unhealthy relationships and emotions can change our energetic fields blocking the flow of energy creating blocked neuropathy, physical illness like ulcers, keeping us stressed or in a bad mood. Traumatic events or major physical accidents such as: a death of a loved one, car accidents, old injuries sitting there with residual trauma, and new injuries. Even injuries from birth trauma like umbilical cord trauma or head trauma can have disturbing effects on our energy flow even from birth.  Even after bones heal to the point where they don’t show up on x-rays they can still have an effect on the body because of the energy that hit the body hard enough to cause bones to break  This is where QEST works to remove energy disturbance to facilitate the body’s natural healing process and promote a more rapid recovery, whether or not there are obvious symptoms present. QEST is employed has a preventive health care method as well.

Diagnosis

The diagnosis process is about taping into the patient’s body’s wisdom to find what needs to be done. Body Wisdom is a concept that includes all accepts of homeostasis, where the body is managing a multitude of complex bodily functions that the consciousness mind cannot always process. However, with in all of us there is an innate knowing that is always going towards homeostasis, and knows how best to run everything that is going on. Regardless of the patients or practitioners understandings of the illness, the body wisdom is the part of the person where the practitioner first connects to get information about the patient’s condition. This first form of diagnosis is effective for Quantum Energetics Practitioners when working with animals, babies, or people who can’t talk.

A unique numerical code it used as a language for getting information from the body. The language uses thousands of codes whose numbers correspond with certain vibrational frequencies of conditions that are present on the energy level. The physical conditions of the body are also coded. The numerical codes indicate energy flowing to and from an area to indicate energetic disturbances. Muscle Testing and applied kinesiology methods are also used to access the bodies conditions. The muscle testing is coupled with the number language. Once the disturbances are located and identified the corrective procedures can begin

Treatment

Each patient is different and requires different lengths of time to achieve desired results. Andrea Reuth, OEP, gives each patient a personalized treatment program. A patient may choose to complete the entire program required or work to a certain point, or complete the basic program Reuth, OEP assigns. The basic program makes the body more intact and more efficient in its functions. Healing touch is used to release energy blockages. The healing touch requires the practitioners to attune to the persons energetic field and use different massage like techniques or stimulation techniques to release energy blockages that were identified through the coding language. The target alarm points and energy meridians are also stimulated through touch.

After the corrective procedures are done a technique called “saving” is used on the body to ensure progress and preventive repetition in corrective procedures. Saving is done by stimulating energy in different places on the persons head telling the body to recognize the work that has been done, and to remember that to continue the healing process. This way the work that is done during each session is layered upon the previous session moving the patient forward in their healing. QEST is a relatively new form of health care and is still a developing medical system that treats adults, children, and animals.  The treatments of Quantum Energetic Structural Therapies are based on the knowledge and understanding of the practitioner. No promises or claims can be made other than the practitioner will do their best to assist the patient in healing. QEST is not approved by the US Food and Drug Administration or regulated. Each individual is responsible for decisions regarding their health and wellness.

Today is the thirteenth day of the Red Skywalker Wavespell

Red Cosmic Serpent

This is linked to one of two huge wavespells coming up for massive potential gateway shifts this year

Red Serpent Wavespell is on May 28th and has ten portal days

Places of energetic connection to all of time

wonderful healing and shift spaces

Many thanks to Tracey Gendron for creating these wonderful resources.

Her fabulous website is:

Astrodreamadvisor.com

There are lots of links to other websites if you hover your mouse on the blog.

I am in the process of making an interactive wavespell calendar ~ it is my first attempt so pretty basic

If you want one message me

It’s free

It will enable you to experientially connect to the calendar every day and synchronise with it

I will be doing a workshop soon too so stand by for more info

This beautiful picture of the Red Ouroboros is the key pattern

Repeating circles

Repeating patterns

Eternity

Death and Rebirth

Yin and Yang

and if you are too driven disappearing up your own behind

Starting to use the wavespell now in lots of interlinked ways and seeing even more magic

This sign today is all about loving the skin we are in

and a point of choice ~

If we want to be truly empowered we need to know how to maximise our sacred temple that houses our spirit

and allow ourselves to be a

vibrant 

high energy being

by being an expert on our beautiful body

and aligning ourselves with patterns that support that new growth

Just been to the dentist and continuing on my journey of learning

about my teeth.

I have now had one of my temporary plastic crowns replaced by pure porcelain

and this journey leads me to explore and understand the nature of my body and health systems…..

It is an amazing cookie trail

In the making of Porcelain there is an alchemical process which involves the use of Mullite and/or Kyanite

Kyanite is a wonderful crystal that is a rich Greek blue ~

that I have always had an affinity for

I gave my Kyanite away to a friend

You can use it to balance all the chakras

and now I find it had found it’s way inside me

as part of my tooth

I had no way of knowing that before ~

so how could I have chosen it?

Here lies the magic of the journey……….

My nickel based crowns have come out

I now have octahedron platonic solid shaped atoms in my mouth …..

rather than tetrahedrons

Eights for integrity

and an adaptation of the ouroboros

amazing how much toxicity our health care systems use ~

madness really isn’t it ?

This is ego land.

None sense.

Now if I had money to pay for expensive dentistry ……which I could do if I decided to do this and go down that route….

It is how I create my dream projects and gives my masculine linear mind a goal to manifest

I wouldn’t go through these stages…..

I am learning to do this less as I allow my higher self to lead at the perfect time

in synch with the cycles

and build my trust and faith and allowing muscles…..

Which is what is the essence of the new wavespell that starts tomorrow ~

White Worldbridger

This is where having money often stops us from facing challenges and going out of our comfort zone

The paying pattern creates a limited outcome in many respects

as often the intention behind it is to achieve something instantly without being an energetic match for it……

money manipulates the matrix ~ 

for a time ~

but the true state always will out

Which is why we have to go through the valley of death (ego transformation) to reach the garden of the goddess ( balancing the feminine)………

In physical terms we go through the stages of the base chakra, the sacral chakra and the solar plexus

this is the veil in our body

Continually working with these cycles over and over is what opens the gates of heaven within

The Heart Chakra

A great book for this is Spirit of the Anatomy by Caroline Myss

and her amazing videos are here

If you use this material with EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique

It is so powerful

Death of the old ways and transforming our ego by facing challenges that take us beyond our ego limitations

and to stretch and grow into our godliness

We are ready to own our power as creators…..

Can you feel that?

Do you fear that?

No worries if you do ~ we all do ~ it is the nature of our journey

and it’s great that we do as it reveals our humbleness and humility

and shows we are ready to handle our power with respect and love

for good

at the time of the returning sacred feminine

and our wounded masculine.

Many people aren’t truly aware of how their body reveals their energy flow

and those that are

may not be aware of how to work with that

and so hold back on letting go of being dependent on the medical pattern

to let go of living a lesser life

by putting their body in places where  systems and people in those systems

put the body under stress

and so they have to balance it with buffers

addictions

We are at a time of transition and so this is challenging

I have been in this space for my whole life on some levels

and in a big way since 2000 ~ when I discovered Louise Hay 

You can heal your life

In sharing my experience in these blogs I share “a” way from my

personal point of view

This is a perspective and each person has their own way and responsibility to make their choices….

We all have different causalities

and so we each have different answers to seek

the time of the guru is over

We are all our own guru 

and each of us has our own path to follow

Their are shared places of truth and well~being space

A great EFT affirmation to tap in is:

Be still and know that I am God

Tap this on your points and see how it feels…..

Wow it is powerful

and can stir up some inner dialogue

touching on any indoctrination (fear) that is still embedded

We are all part of the universal consciousness

and an individual personality

We are here to co create

I am sharing these videos to awaken people to the truth about factory and Pharma models

Let’s awaken ourselves to knowing the truth that the corporate world actually doesn’t care

at all

on any level

about our welfare

only that we are around long enough to consume their products

and with the amount of formaldehyde in them

we will be living mummy’s

I am not blaming anyone……

It is the exact push we need

to wean ourselves off this unhealthy

co dependent system

of living from lack

and denying our

true wonderful amazing selves

My ego still gets angry at this and I know that means I have stuff to clear on my past and relationships I have had

with “authority “

Ignorant people who have the strength of ego to tell me

who I am

How I should be

How I should live

Teachers

Doctors

Adults

who are vibrating on such a low level

and are so out of touch with the real deal

Acceptance of what is

Without their intervention I wouldn’t have the contrast

and the challenge

to sing a different song

Lots of manure for my compost mountain

Bullsh*t awaiting transformation

This is all the rocket fuel I need 

for my seeds of love

within

to get my high vibe show on the road

Juicy Living

Please join me and share our brave new world

that takes courage and heart

and new belief systems

Let’s clear off the sludge of our soul mirrors so we can shine brightly

and

plug ourselves in

direct to source

by removing all the obstacles

our ego journey

has placed in the way

I often find myself with conundrums because my ego is having a battle with my heart

I am still a meat eater

and for me this means being a hypocrite

I couldn’t kill an animal ~ maybe to survive if I was starving

but I want to move towards a new way of being that feels true for me

from my own discoveries….

that has integrity

rather than simply because I feel I “should”

also

I am reading material that has amazing learning

but this has come from experiments on animals

and I really don’t like that

and I couldn’t do it myself

and yet I ask the question

How could we have known what we know today without all this suffering?

I am not seeking to justify using animals at all

I am simply saying

aren’t we all in this experimental process of life

and moving towards more loving ways of being as a result of living in dark times?

I don’t know what the answer is for this

I don’t know what the answers are for many things

I ask forgiveness for my ignorance

I am opening up more and more to accepting that everything happens for a reason

even nuclear power…..

otherwise it wouldn’t be in our world…

and that it is the nature of our learning pattern to go beyond where we are now borne from what doesn’t kill us…..

rebirths us.

This book is amazing…..

The Body Electric by Robert O Becker and Gary Selden

The man who wrote it had to challenge the scientific mindset and open up research that wasn’t popular

because the companies that fund research have their agenda

Another really obviously crazy inappropriate unsafe mechanism that we have

We trust that ego led individuals who are driven by making money …..

are going to be responsible and caring of humanity

and honest about their research…….

The two patterns are diametrically opposed

mutually exclusive

not a match

Here is where the growth learning is

So this man went up against the men’s club and opened up old research

about the healing electricity in the body

and proved it scientifically

and even in the face of that proof

in the manner of their own methodology

many of these scientists would not accept the findings

because to accept this

meant giving up opposing beliefs

( Ever had that experience?)

 and ways of living …….

that paid their golf club fees

meant they had to rethink their life plan and values

give up their fringe benefits

and most people are so in their masculine that they aren’t willing to do that

and go beyond

the material world

as a major part of the science pattern comes from fear and the need to pin down, measure and evaluate

tick a box

to deflect and assuage anxiety from earlier episodes in life ~ in childhood.

There is always a story behind each direction in life….

Did you know that if you cut your fingertips off they will regrow?

Warning some images on these links that you may find upsetting

The key for me in reading this book ~ there are so many wows ~

Is the pattern

the metaphors

and I will expand on these in other blogs….

there is so much to share

When you start connecting to this path it is so exciting and limitless

Our universal body regrows through death experiences

You can cut through a heart completely

and it will heal itself

Cancer is a healing strategy for the body to regrow

only for most people they choose medical intervention ~

understandably through fear ~

that doesn’t heed the message the body is trying to communicate

We are all capable of healing ourselves

It is our bodies innate function

many times we stop the cycle and use medication because we fear pain

it feels out of control

We can go within and hear the message

and we have to make a lifestyle change at this point

how we live has created the imbalance

We are beautiful

sensitive

sacred

flowers of light

We aren’t meant to be in controlled

over crowded

office blocks

living on microwaves

starving from lack of nutrients

in grey corridors with synthetic carpets, smells,

plastic fantastic

It is really really simple

Watching these videos

reconnected me to these simple ways of creating change:

Louise Hay affirmation on your mirror

say it every morning to yourself and every evening

Start and end your day

and if you know how to tap I encourage you to use it as a starting point

and let your ego speak out

so you can let go

of that woundology

Here is the statement:

I love and accept myself unconditionally now

Then see what comes………

from the inner critic

that you can set free by tapping on when it was formed in the past

and truly liberate yourself

Start to add in a lifestyle of vibrancy

Add in one something every week that takes you towards well-being

A fruit

A smoothie

Nothing to big or too fast that the ego radar will revolt against

little steps that edge you out of your cave

into the sunshine

in the green meadow

add in positive people

add in tools to support your letting go

add in a new book, new philosophy that stretches your world

expands your imagination

lets your parental control button turn itself down

We are right at the beginning of an amazing journey into knowing ourselves

We are always safe

we are always held

we are always loved

all we have to do is allow it

and enjoy the ride

Imagine how you will feel when you have an even higher  vibe body

when you live in the now more and more

when you feel so excited about life

simply for being alive

In the recent past we learned to be children in adult bodies ~ dependents

because that was the pattern of the times

of what our spiritual essence was experiencing and learning from

now we are evolving and allowing ourselves to own our power

from the heart

reaching a place of spiritual maturity on our planet

and to reach this space

heaven on earth

we all create beliefs and ways of living

that match that

and this takes time ~

baby steps

All the spiritual teachings are here

It is time to put the I

in the teachings

be our own Hanuman

and step into

our true state of being

for us to follow

on the inside

We are enough

May I suggest that you start to write a list of all your amazing qualities and put it where you can acknowledge your wonder every day

Here is a video I made in my allotment a couple of years ago

Barefoot Holistics

On he went, speaking to me on the topic of “alternate realities” and “parallel planes,” notions which to me seemed absurd. There was the physical reality, which was real, and then there was the dream state, which was the product of imagination and consequently not real. I was simply unable to fathom anything beyond those two categories. In answer to his question as to which we were in right now, I took the position that we were presently in physical reality based on the fact that I was awake. The entity said that this was not physical reality, and he would prove it to me. He then instructed me to take the blue vase on my window sill and smash it into pieces. After some convincing, I slammed the vase against the wood that lined the window, watching as it shattered. In a moment, entropy reversed itself before my eyes and the blue vase was in one piece again. As amazed and perplexed as I was at this, his retro-entropy trick only led me to conclude that I had been mistaken and that, as difficult as it was for me to believe, we must instead be in a dream. Though I do not recall his response, I was left with the impression that this was not the conclusion that the entity was hoping for.

That experience must have happened in March or April of 1995. When I finally met with success and woke up in my normal room and with my fully-functioning vision, it only seemed to add further confirmation that the whole experience had been nothing more than a dream. In addition, it was a dream so strange it lived far beyond my capacity to understand. It would also undoubtedly be a laborious journey I felt was unlikely to provide a payoff. Perhaps it was a dream. In any case, even though I forgot of the dream for some time, did it in some way influence the sudden, inexplicable passion I had for achieving the out-of-body experience?

In any case, on the bridge of April and May, no more than a day or two after my hypnosis session on April 27th, I found myself in the strange position of feeling eager to lie down and close my eyes in a dark room at night. This was unheard of for me at the time, and to be honest even with respect to present day. Though I had decided to take up the practice of sleeping again, however terrified the notion made me feel, for some reason I found it necessary to sleep not on my bed, but on the floor by my doorway. Wrapped in blankets, head to my pillow, I would close my eyes and run the tape in my Walkman. I had received the tape that day at the school library through inter-library loan. On one side were guided, step-by-step procedures on how to exit the corporeal body through self-hypnosis. On the other, there was cheesy new age music with the same instructions played at a low volume for subliminal suggestion. The idea was that the instructions would be delivered directly to the unconscious mind, bypassing the critical conscious ego and leading to spontaneous astral projection.

Having decided I could ingrain the ability to project out of my physical body far more quickly by listening to both sides of the tape interchangeably, I did just that. Every so often, I would fall asleep listening to the tape, only to wake to the sound of the Walkman clicking to a stop. I would then flip over the tape, press play and fall back asleep. I made this a routine rather quickly, and it soon became a reflex that was triggered all night long by the click of the tape stopping.

After listening to the tape for what must have been about a week, strange shit began happening. For one thing, I began getting more confused memories from childhood surfacing, all of which I recorded on paper. There was an image of the typical Gray alien, head turned, each eye embracing hypnotic spirals, and I somehow associated it with where we used to go camping in Geneva, Ohio. More importantly, at least with respect to the series of experiences I wish to describe here, I began getting odd sensations I described in my notes at the time as “my aura surfing over my body,” which I for some reason felt it was doing because it was “trying to disconnect.” A better way to explain the sensation might be to say that it felt as if I had two bodies — one which was my physical body, another which was a duplicate body, a subtler body that felt as though it were made out of electricity. My subtle body was super-imposed but slightly lingering outside and above my physical body, connected at the head. From the head, by subtle body would occasionally rise to the height of perhaps a 45-degree angle, where it was violently yanking and shifting from side to side as if aggressively trying to break free from the connection somewhere inside my head — or as if some disembodied entity were aggressively trying to pull me out of my body.

After a night or two of this aura surfing, something even more bizarre happened. Jolting awake, sitting straight up where I lay by the doorway in my dark room, I felt mentally alert to the degree usually reserved for alarm, though could not ascertain what had provoked this reaction. Thinking at first that someone must be in the room with me, my eyes scan the premises eerily lit by the light of my lava lamp but come up empty handed. Still, the uneasy feeling did not go away. Something was wrong. Even the atmosphere of the room seemed off kilter. Finally, it dawned on me that things in my room weren’t positioned right. The dimensions of the room were different. As unbelievable as it was, it suddenly struck me that while I was wide awake as could be I was somehow still dreaming, and this was not my room at all.

It was that realization that then jolted me awake, sitting up from my dark corner on my bedroom floor in just the same manner as I had in the dream. I was in such awe over the experience and felt the need to write it down, but I never made it that far before the discrepancies in the room again caught my attention. This was not the off-kilter room I had awakened into within the dream, nor was it my actual room. Somehow, I had awakened out of a dream of an alternate room and into another. I was still awake, yet I was still dreaming. The shock awakened me with a jolt, and I sat upright but knew better, and upon brief inspection I found that, alas, this was yet another alternate room.

On it went. Every time I was certain I was awake, certain that this was a physical experience through the body’s normal senses in my own bedroom environment. Then it would catch my eye. Objects in my room were misplaced, replaced, missing or had duplicates. Dimensions or lighting would be off. With every false awakening, I felt evermore mise en abyme, increasingly lost in a hellishly infinite series of Chinese Boxes. There was no way you could have convinced me it was a dream, but at the same time it was equally obvious that this was not what I had come to regard as reality. This left me with absolutely no option. There were no other existing alternatives; it was dream or reality. Eventually, of course, I awoke in the conventional sense, decided to slow down my listening to the tape and, of course, felt my reluctance to sleep return with renewed strength.

All this aura-surfing and waking up in alternative bedrooms was merely a prelude, however. I may have forgotten about it all completely if I hadn’t been documenting things in such an obsessive-compulsive manner at the time, because what happened next blew all of it out of the water. This climax came in the form of several experiences that spanned over perhaps two weeks to a month. Though I documented most of the experiences on paper, at least for the first few episodes, even careful analysis of my atrocious, often barely-decipherable handwriting at the time makes it difficult for me to determine how the episodes unfolded chronologically. I do remember quite clearly the first episode, however. It was on either the third or fifth of May, 1995, then, when the aura-surfing brought me to a tidal wave that crashed my aching awareness down the shores of the Twilight Zone.

On that early evening I was absolutely exhausted, but had none the less refused to submit to the urge to sleep. I had, as a matter of fact, hardly slept at all in days, and for two reasons. One was evidently extraterrestrial, and that had been quite reason enough for insomnia the passed few months. Now I had another reason, however, and it was apparently of a spiritual or multi-dimensional nature. I read and wrote to aide my quest to understand all I’d been going throughout the last four to five months and, of course, for the purposes of keeping my mind intensely focused and busy and away from the horrific vulnerability that came with the most minimal amount of slumber. Experience had clearly shown, even at that early date, that this caffeine-fueled nocturnal practice only served to postpone the inevitable at best, and at worst only served to increase the depths of sleep when the inevitable crash came to pass. It was of no great surprise when I found myself standing before my bed, then, fighting to overcome the nearly delirious desire I had to drop on my mattress and just let myself fall into a deep, dark, warm and restful oblivion. I knew I had reached the end of my rope; there was simply no fighting it. I was going down. Involuntarily, I felt myself literally crash face-first into my mattress. I just dropped. My only hopes were that I would rest peacefully and awaken to my home reality and not in that extradimensional coffin, that endless labyrinth of Chinese boxes.

From the moment of impact, weird things began to happen. My mind relaxed a bit, ready to submit to a coma, but my body relaxed much more swiftly and much more deeply. My body quickly grew numb, heavy and then, finally, seemingly lifeless. It was a strange, exhilarating, liberating feeling I would in time become quite familiar with. What perplexed me most about it all was that as my body became totally and comfortably immobilized my consciousness, at first relaxed, then became incredibly acute. I was not merely awake, I was hyper-aware. I don’t even know if I was capable of moving my body at first, to be honest, for in my comfort and wonderment it never crossed my mind to take the time to try.

Then it deepened even further, to the point that it becomes quite difficult to explain, and this despite the fact that it has happened to me countless times since. If you can imagine that each of your senses — those through which you received signals from the world external to the body as well as those that gave you feedback on the body — have their own volume that can be turned to increase or reduce the degree of sensory input, I awoke in a state in which all those knobs had been turned down to the click of a reality-cancelling zero. Gone was any vague indication of the world beyond closed eyes as well as the sensation of those eyelids themselves. Gone was my sense of gravity, balance, the position of my body, the feeling of my tongue and the saliva in my mouth, the rhythm of my heartbeat or breathing. Everything, save for my strangely acute awareness, was simply absent.

If the initial paralysis and intense state of awareness were not enough to fascinate me, there was the sequence of strange sensations that followed. My body soon felt as if it was liquid, and it began to experience waves, like that of the ocean. I felt my body tingling, much like the pins-and-needles feeling you get when your leg or arm is falling asleep, but there was something more “electric” about this sensation. In addition to that, the tingling began to rise, as if changing frequency. Then it felt as if my bed were a cradle rocking my body back and fourth, back and fourth. Then, in response to the sensation of the bed swaying, I felt myself falling into what seemed to be an intoxicating trance. At that point, I just swiftly drifted into what seemed to be a hazy, low-intensity dream.

Though it seems logical to describe it as a dream, it was uncharacteristically stable in terms of environment and uneventful in terms of substance, with my perspective fixed and the vision blurred, as if my eyes were not adjusting properly. It was as if I had shifted from the physical senses that had turned down to zero and to my senses in this dream environment, which were now crawling just above zero, but nowhere near a level of volume that offered a sufficient degree of dream-sensory clarity. Here in the dream environment, however, the senses seemed to be intimately tied to my degree of awareness, much unlike my unresponsive physical senses to my previous heightened awareness. Senses clarified in correspondence to my degree of awareness, and this began slowly. In time it dawned on me that I was lying down on my side, staring out with blurred vision at what I somehow felt to be a familiar, cluttered basement, with my curiosity inspiring further focus on my sense of surroundings. Soon my senses clarified to the degree that the form that rested at the dead center of my field of vision became my focal point amidst the clutter. Just a few feet away, for some reason it grabbed my attention. The more my vision focused, the more I could make out what seemed to be to be the naked figure of a female. What I was focusing on directly was a woman’s bare breast.

At the moment I realized the breast for what it was, the world around me burst to life. My entire field of senses were squeaky clean, painfully receptive, as if the boob had served as a switch that had flipped on the high-watt bulb resting just behind the veil of this otherworldly environment. What previously stood as a blurry landscape immediately became a world more vivid than the “real” world had ever been. Colors were more crisp than anything I could remember laying my eyes upon. I could feel, see, hear, and I could even smell the musty scent of the basement. Every object, everything within the setting took on its own sort of contained self-luminance, apparently not requiring any external light source. And my awareness was heightened as well. As the strange world around me surged with energy and life, so did I. The realization that it was a breast brought a quickening to the world around me as well as myself, and immediately my body lifted from its position lying on its side and rose upward. Floating, it seemed, rather than standing, and in a body that felt more like an ill-defined blob than a steady form.

Not a moment later, it became abundantly clear that I was not alone. Immediately I felt what I would later describe as a “brutal force” latch itself onto my back like some wild animal pouncing on its prey, sinking in its serrated fangs. The vicious, animalistic attack brought me down to its basic, instinctual level, though in this case I reacted with both fight and flight, but my struggling would not shake him. Struggling with him as he pulled at me, tugged at me, tried to lift me up into the air, I felt as if I had been snatched up like the victim of a hawk and with his talons he sought to carry his meaty morsel to an area more fit for dining. I always seemed to break loose of his grip, however. On the several occasions he was able to wrestle me down, it felt as if he were clawing at my insides with an insane speed and passion, as if he had just stuck a blender in my guts and cranked it to the max. At the same time it felt like I was being electrocuted. Fighting was futile, so a game of cat and mouse ensued with me, obviously, typecast as the rodent.

Though our fighting was easy enough to understand, my means of flight takes a bit more explaining. My mode was one of constant movement be it backward, forward, ascending, descending or turning, with my target of attention dictating direction — a peculiar and inconvenient means of transportation, I might add, given my typical baseline psychological state consisting of intense yet meandering focus. As I looked around the room in terror, I would focus in on some object or area and immediately “zip’ or “zoom” there, as if rather than traveling the distance I had instead remained stationary as I drew the target towards me. The total absence of eyelids did not help the matter, either: in the end, I was stuck traveling at the blinding speed of thought without breaks.

The closest I achieved to being stationary in that environment was when I moved towards an object of focus so quickly I feared slamming into it or merging with it and “pushed back” in response, and then “pulled forward,” and kept this going as if I were some idiot fucking with an extradimensional zoom lens. I would zip around with him on my back, sometimes managing to shake him off me, or so it seemed, but never for long, and at one point I remember just giving into the zoom lens, letting it go forward as far as it could go. At the time, my focus had landed rather arbitrarily on some pipes lining the walls of the basement and immediately found myself going through the plumbing, zooming through tunnels of pipes, focused on infinity.

In the midst of all this violence, sensory overload and sheer terror, I got it into my head that it might be a good idea to try and find a way to get back to my body. I tried to do this by means of getting a “feel” for it. After all, if focus or desire was the vehicle down here, maybe concentrating on my body would bring me back to it or wake me up. While the physical universe and the body that connected me to it seemed so far away, so dreadfully out of reach, I tried with all my might to grab a hold of some faint memory of what it felt like to be inside of it. My hopes were that once I was back in my body this thing, this entity or whatever it was, wouldn’t be able to get me.

Somehow, I managed to do it. I escaped his world; I felt myself go upward. For a moment there seemed to be a breach in consciousness, but if so my awareness soon returned and I felt myself squeeze into the frame of my physical form. This was not, however, the same as being hooked up to my body, as I was soon to discover. My physical form was not under my control. I could not move it at all, I couldn’t see or taste or hear through it, but I could for some reason feel sensations through the skin. And what I felt was absolutely excruciating. While the sensations themselves are difficult to describe, I can tell you what insane thoughts ran through my mind at the time I felt them: I had the peculiar notion that little beings were poking staffs, spears and sticks with arrowheads at my body, jabbing knives into every area on my skin with unrelenting fervor. That’s what it felt like. Rationality soon led me to wonder if my body was going through convulsions, if this could all be the byproduct of some seizure or something, but my interpretation of the sensations didn’t change them. I could still feel the pokes and stabs and pinches and tapping. I could also feel them sticking things in my ear, too, and jabbing some large, blunt object in my anus.

To put it mildly and less graphic, my body was going through absolute torture. So as much as I wanted to get back to my biological body before that option was no longer available, the pain forced me to flee the corporeal confines again. As a consequently, I found myself back in a strange environment, though not the same environment as before. Nonetheless, the brutal force wasted no time in finding me, pouncing on my back and struggling, I increasingly felt, to somehow get inside of me. Now having access, in the very least, to a transient break room, I would travel back to my body to regain strength and also try to find a way to wake up through it or bear the torture it was going through. Time and time again, I was forced back into that otherworldly place, but always a different environment. It was as if my body were a sort of extradimensional anteroom. Given the torture it was being subjected to, any fight of mine invariably gave way to flight back into that other world, the ongoing target of a vile spirit’s manhunt, bound to the chase and savage attacks in a dimensional space of neither matter nor dream.

At some point, I landed in an alternate bedroom, and at this point my erratic movements across the scenery had calmed down a bit. I found that I could just hover and float and navigate at a less intense level. As real as all this seemed, it began to occur to me that perhaps I was somehow in what is known as a lucid or waking dream. My understanding is that lucid dreams present a challenge as one can excite oneself into awakening, however, and I seemed utterly incapable of waking up. With lucidity in a dream state one also is granted absolute power, the ability to change and control the scenery, and I only seemed capable of interacting with it as one would if it were a real environment, and incapable of escaping in any fashion save through retreating to a body that refused to awaken. I was obviously not at the wheel here, so-to-speak. None the less, when I found myself in that alternate bedroom I had some time to kill before that entity found me again, so I floated down to the foot of my bed by the window and tried with all my might to “will” something into manifestation. For some reason the only thing I could think of was the Rottweiler owned by our next door neighbors at the time who I had not-so-affectionately named Cujo. I concentrated on the image with an incredible amount of intensity and before me there appeared a translucent apparition of the Rottweiler’s face, it’s mouth opening and closing as it’s head jerked as if it were barking away in frenzy, though without noise. It was a fleeting apparition, however, and simply vanished as soon as I stopped concentrating with agonizing intensity. And I soon had to, as the entity had found me once again and wasted no time pouncing on me.

As I was wrestling with the entity on the floor, however, I took the chance to catch a peek through a mirror on a nearby wall. Here I saw that I was fighting with what seemed to be a nearly invisible enemy. All I could make out was an amorphous, transparent blob, a translucent smudge or blur the presence of which was visually detectable only because it served to distort whatever it was obscuring. As for myself, I appeared to be a fully-clothed version of myself in the midst of battle with a levitating blob. As we continued fighting, it came to my attention that he was inevitably going to wear me down, as I could not keep up the fight. I worried he would possess me, or that I would somehow face a death at a level deeper than the mere biological. At the point that I had given up and was sure it was over for me, I suddenly found myself back in my body, fully attached and awakening through it.

I wriggled my hands as if fitting them into a glove, moved my body so as to ensure the connection was maintained. Drenched in a cold sweat, lightheaded and with my mouth saturated with this strange, acidic taste, I found it hard to describe how I felt in general. You are left with the feeling that you have gone through hell, forced to utilize every inch of yourself to its fullest capacity in fight for your survival and yet still brought to the point where you were fully convinced there was no way out and death was inevitable. Despite that, however, you not only make it back out alive in the end but find yourself struck with the feeling that you were somehow cleansed of something. I grabbed my notebook and pen and wrote down the rough details of the experience. After describing it, I compulsively wrote:

This is real.
This reality we live in is a lie.
We got away with it for some time.
“They” are here.
“They” have been here.
And WE are going to learn.

As I stared at what I had written in wonder, frightened that my hand had written it despite the fact that my own mind, at least consciously, had not driven the writing. Before I had the chance to dwell on that too much, I heard the voice of my mother from downstairs calling for supper and so washed my hands and proceeded down to the kitchen. As I sat at the kitchen table, I found that I was not at all that hungry but that I was incredibly thirsty, an intriguing aftereffect of the disembodied experiences that I would come to be quite familiar with.

I wanted to so much to tell them, to tell anyone. I wanted to explain all this to them, but I knew that I had to explain it to myself first. Chances are that they would think I was crazy anyway, and I didn’t feel as if I had much of a defense when it came to that kind of accusation, so I remained silent. After finishing up, I took a walk around the block of our country town with my little micro-cassette recorder at my side, my only ear in my increasingly insane life. I breathed in the air, took in the sounds, felt the hard ground beneath my feet. Though I couldn’t words to it, or much of anything in the realm of the weird I had been thrust into the last few months, what I was doing at the time was trying to ground myself in this reality, try to anchor this newfound awareness. As I walked around, everything seemed to much more beautiful than before, and so much more mysterious. It was akin to what I have heard people describe when they have spoken about watching the sun rise the morning after an acid trip.

Strange things started happening: the computer would inexplicably go off in my presence, light bulbs would burn out when I turned them on. On May 5th, at 11:34 at night, I felt a presence in my room, and two days later, I felt the aliens were near, and later that night I heard choking noises from somewhere in the house. Amidst all this, somewhere within two days following my initial astral projection, despite the fact that I had promptly stopped using the Astral Projection tape, it happened again. Just as before, I became overcome with exhaustion and literally collapsed on my bed. I felt the tingling, the heat, the waving, the rocking and swaying back and fourth, the pulling up and pushing down and then the final phase-out.

Much as had happened the first time, I found myself in a dream-like environment in which I seemed to have blurred senses. On this occasion, however, I was by no means stationary and an active dream narrative developed. I found myself in this huge, old barn, heading towards the car to look for something we had left inside during Christmas. On my way through the old barn, however, I became distracted when a dog walked by and it suddenly triggered a memory of having been in this barn before, where I had been playing hide and seek with a dog just like it. Then I felt the quickening of awareness, and suddenly the world around me blasts to life, and with it my old friend returns, pouncing on me with viciousness. I try to run, but I cannot even move. It was all I could muster to struggle and resist this thing. I try and scream but it just won’t come out. It feels as though something is being jabbed into my ass, something large, and I am in total agony. I try to look around frantically for some place to run, but all I see is a shimmering Christmas tree nearby the far wall. As soon as I focus there, I’m there, shifting back and force again like an idiot with a zoom lens. I shifted to other areas of the barn, though I do not remember where, though I know I returned at least once more to shifting before the Christmas tree.

Remembering my trick from before, I attempted to “remember” and get a sense of my physical body. After some effort, I escaped the brutal force by escaping that environment and ascending back into what I found to be a seemingly dead physical body, just as before, though this time I cannot sense things through my skin. With my bodily senses off, I only had an empty, dead cell to return to.

Though I cannot recall whether I was pulled, forced, slipped or even elected to leave my physical body again, I found myself back down in that otherworldly place, this time in yet another alternate version of my bedroom, where I found myself alone. I took the opportunity to experiment again, trying to look into past memories to see if perhaps they were more accessible in this state. It didn’t prove to be the case. I then tried to “will” the aliens to manifest before me, but I got not even a translucent image as I had in the case of the Rottweiler during the first experience. Out of my peripheral vision, I catch hints of movement and turn to see the door of my room opening, revealing the dark hallway. A shelving unit is pushed to the wall outside my bedroom door on which rests our old set of Encyclopedia Britannica, though I immediately realize that that shelving unit does not exist there anymore in my real house. I also notice, to my confusion, that my field of vision here had something akin to floaters. My observational and experimental passion fizzled out quickly, though, and I begin to grow concerned that the entity had opened the door, though it seemed unlike him to toy with me. After once more trying to visualize the aliens to no avail, I invested all my resources in getting back to my body, however lifeless it had been when I had last left it.

Try as I might, however, I could not seem to find my way back. I always just found myself able to leave the realm I was in, but consequently just find myself back in another realm. An infinite series of alternative realities, it seemed, and I once again experienced the terror of perhaps being stuck in a Chinese box without surface or center, a coffin of the infinite regress. All this horror and the brutal force had not yet found me. When he did, I found myself in an alternate bedroom that was dark and had two versions of my bed on either side of the room. Down on the carpet in the space between them I am being attacked my the entity once more. In the midst of our struggle, I suddenly find myself back inside my physical body again, stretching my nonphysical self into my physical self as if it were three-dimensional clothing.

The war against sleep waged on. From the library, I had received some books on out-of-body experiences and astral projection, and I was desperately trying to find out what it was that was happening to me. Where else did I have to go — a shrink? Before I began slipping down the fault lines of corporeal reality I had been concerned about ending up in a rubber room because I was having memories and real-time encounters with what appeared to be alien beings. With this additional strata of insanity, I did not foresee contact with a mental health professional resulting in anything less than a new, sleeveless jacket and a small, well-padded room. A friend of mine at school, whom I had explained these out of body experiences to, remarked to me that they sounded strangely of people’s experiences when they took various kind of psychedelic drugs. I wouldn’t even smoke a cigarette or have a beer until I was twenty years of age and already, free of charge or foreign substance, I was having the kinds of experiences spontaneously and against my will that some people paid to have by inhalation, injection or ingestion. And here I did not even feel privileged.

Soon enough, I found myself literally crashing from exhaustion onto my bed again. I awaken in an alternate version of a park that used to be around the block from where we lived when I was younger. As I did my constant-motion attention-diverting around the environment, I did my shifting near a ledge that dropped off into the lake far below. As I tried to wake up, I would find myself instead in the seemingly endless series of alternate realities which in my notes upon awakening I referred to as “conscious levels,” as that is how it felt like I traversed them. Finally, I awakened in an environment that, despite my blurring vision, appeared to be a flea market of some sort. There were rows upon rows of tables, the sense of a lot of activity, and in my low state of awareness, which seemed to be ever-dwindling now, I found myself walking beside someone between the rows of tables. He was trying to hold a conversation with me and seemed agitated that I was lowering in awareness. Incredible irritation and disappointment seemed to swell in him when I finally succeeded in regaining a sense of my physical body and zoomed backwards, away from him.

Then I woke up.

Glucose intolerance treatment options are fairly limited, but effective when taken seriously. Find out how you can fight back glucose intolerance by bringing about some subtle changes in your lifestyle.

Glucose intolerance is a condition that affects many people. It involves lowering of the level of insulin secreted by the pancreas, resulting in increase in the level of glucose in the body, which in turn leads to less production of energy in the body. While glucose intolerance is a serious condition that can sometimes lead to other complications like type 2 diabetes and other cardiovascular problems, it is relatively easy to keep this condition under control. This Buzzle article has some effective ways to help you keep your glucose level in check.

Treatment for Glucose Intolerance

Glucose intolerance, once set in, cannot be ‘cured’ completely. Since it is not a full fledged disease, there’s no way to completely eradicate the condition. One can definitely take precautionary measures to keep a check on the sugar (carbohydrates) intake and in turn control the level of glucose in the body. The most common glucose intolerance symptoms that manifest are frequent urination, constant hunger and thirst, lack of concentration, rapid loss or gain of weight, anxiety, excitable behavior, etc. If you think that you exhibit these symptoms and if you have a family history of variation in blood glucose levels, then it would be advisable to test yourself for glucose intolerance. You can cope with this condition by taking some simple steps to alter your current lifestyle. The most effective ones are given below.

Exercise

Exercise is one thing that is recommended for any ailment. Glucose intolerance is no different. One of the causes of impaired glucose tolerance is the weight of the person. It is often seen that obese people have a greater risk of falling prey to this condition. Hence, if you are overweight, the first step towards a healthy life, free from fluctuations in your blood sugar level, is to make a commitment to do regular exercise. If you have a sedentary job, then make it a point to involve yourself in an exercise routine for at least an hour daily. With strenuous physical exercises, the blood pumps faster and more energy is used. This, along with a proper diet, will help your blood to control the glucose level and produce more energy for the body. If you have absolutely no physical exercise in your daily life, then begin slowly. Begin with a 15 minute simple workout and work your way to a longer one, say a half an hour workout after a week or so. Gradually increase this to a full hour of rigorous exercise on a daily basis. Carefully plan the time and the exercises to suit your body and its needs and requirements. Don’t overwork yourself in the beginning. Take it slow and easy and you’ll see the results.

Diet

Another major change that you need to make in your life, if you want to keep your blood sugar level at par with normal standards is to begin and maintain a glucose intolerance diet. Your diet is one of the major contributors to the high level of glucose in your blood stream. Because you intake sugar-rich foods, your blood receives excess sugar. Hence, a person who is glucose intolerant should not indulge in eating foodstuffs that have a high content of sugar (carbohydrates) in them. Foodstuffs that contain high levels of dietary fiber are one of the most important additions that should be made to a glucose intolerant person’s diet. This will help to make proper use of the energy in the body by slowing down the rate of metabolism. Another category of foods that should be included is those foods that have a low cholesterol level. High cholesterol is also a reason for the inability to use energy in the body and the high level of glucose in the blood. Hence, consuming low cholesterol foodstuffs will have a counter effect and help to keep the glucose level in control. Carbohydrates and fats are nutrients that need to be avoided as much as possible. It is a fact that foods containing carbs and fats are more pleasing to the palate, and hence difficult to let go of. But they can prove to be extremely detrimental to people who are glucose intolerant because they are counter productive as far as the level of blood sugar is concerned. In order to follow this stringent diet strategy, begin by completely stopping the intake of processed foods as they have high level of fats and carbohydrates in them. Stick to a healthy diet plan and you will definitely see the difference in your glucose level.

Medication

As far as medication is concerned, a physician can prescribe you drugs of four types. The first type of medication is something that will accelerate the discharge of insulin from the pancreas. This will help by increasing the insulin level in the blood which will control the glucose level by default. The second type of drug will help your body fight its resistance to insulin. There are some people who may be glucose intolerant because their body rejects insulin. These drugs will help the body to fight this resistance and let the insulin get absorbed into the blood stream. This will keep the glucose level in check. The third type of drugs that you may be asked to take are the ones that will help to bring down the rate of digestion and metabolism of your body. By doing this, the absorption of glucose also gets inhibited. The fourth type of drugs will suppress DPP-4, the enzyme which does not allow the incretin hormones to be released.

Before undertaking any of the above mentioned glucose intolerance treatments, you should make sure that you actually suffer from the condition. Do not take any treatment without medical advice and supervision. Once you begin a treatment plan, make sure that you stick to it. The treatment for glucose intolerance is a continuous and ongoing process. So take it seriously if you want to lead a healthy life, without worrying about undulations in your blood sugar level.

This ideology encourages one to continue in the spiritual/religious path that they have chosen or were born into, while applying these principles.

       In brief the eight limbs, or steps to yoga, are as follows:

1. Yama :  Universal morality

2. Niyama :  Personal observances

3. Asanas :  Body postures

4. Pranayama :  Breathing exercises, and control of prana

5. Pratyahara :  Control of the senses

6. Dharana :  Concentration and cultivating inner perceptual awareness

7. Dhyana :  Devotion, Meditation on the Divine

8. Samadhi :  Union with the Divine

I am full of resistance in this area even though I know from direct experience the extraordinary benefits that meditation has on my life and on my healing. This is a place where I have a direct dial-in to God simply through the act of looking at myself clearly. I attribute this resistance of sitting still to my disease.

The inevitable result of meditating is the flood of fear that accompanies the silence. This fear looks like a scabrous hand that holds my heart in its palm and wraps its towering claws around me, keeping me in a prison far from the freedom of sharing that it yearns for. This is the source of much of my suffering—not feeling safe to share my heart with people, not trusting. They say that underearning is a disease of people, and confronting that fear is what scares me the most.

David and I created The Wish-fulfilling Chakra Exercise some years ago as part of workshops and sessions we taught in London.  Some of our material was published in the introductory level Avalonia’s Book of Chakras.

The Wish-fulfilling Tree Exercise

This exercise is a creative visualisation to achieve goals that you which to achieve.  Be realistic in your wishes, and they are more likely to succeed (e.g. a new job is much more realistic than winning the lottery).  Remember that when you send energy to realise a wish, you also need to give that wish avenues to manifest in your life, and be open to the opportunities that may arise.

It is a good idea to prepare a mental image of the wish you want to realise beforehand, so when you reach that part of the meditation you have a sharp and defined image to focus the energy on.  Clarity and precision make all the difference when performing creative visualisations.

Sit comfortably, and visualise your Hrit chakra.  It has eight golden-red petals, with a tree in the centre, and is located between your Heart chakra and your Solar Plexus chakra.  Focus your awareness on the wish-fulfilling tree in the centre of the chakra.  When you are clearly focused on the tree, see it growing larger and merging with your body, so you become the tree.  Feel your body as your trunk, your arms as your branches.  Then start to put forth roots from your feet, down into the earth.  Deeper and deeper into the earth, through the layers of rock, through the underground streams of water, through pockets of air within the earth, ever deeper until you reach the molten core, the fire at the centre of the earth.

From the core, with every in-breath you take, draw forth sparks of golden energy, up into your roots, drawing the energy up into your trunk.  Do this for a couple of minutes, drawing up more and more of the golden earth energy.  Then feel the energy of the heavens, of the sun and moon and stars, on your leaves.  With every out-breath draw down silver sparks of heavenly energy, drawing it down through your branches, into your trunk.

Continue drawing in energy, so that with every in-breath you draw up gold sparks from the earth, and with every out-breath you draw down silver sparks of energy from the heavens.  Feel the two different energies meeting at your Hrit chakra, coalescing and being transmuted, empowering you with their energy.  Feel the energy building up within you as you become the axis mundi, the connection between the heavens and the earth, filled with the energy of both.

When you feel sufficiently empowered, draw your roots back from the core of the earth.  Back through the rock and earth until they are completely out of the earth.  Visualise yourself changing back from being a tree, and see yourself as you again.  Now visualise your Hrit chakra again, and focus on the wish you want to realise and visualise all the energy you gathered at your Hrit chakra entering the wish-fulfilling tree in its centre.  See the tree giving forth blossoms and a ray of white light shooting forth from the tree, out of your body and into the heavens.

All our problems enter the physical body only after entering our energy body.

Say for example, you are having some problem in the knee, liver or stomach means that one or two months prior to this, the energy body is affected in that particular area.

So maintaining the clean energy body, by realigning the energy body to the flow of Divine energy, you are cleansing, clearing and energizing and preventing the physical problem.

Our thoughts and emotions affects our energy levels

The energy body is also connected to the mind. In other words, mind is also energy. Every thought is energy and every emotion is energy too.

If you have feelings of joy and enthusiasm or any positive emotions and if you have positive thoughts then you are positively contributing to the energy. When he is in a joyful mood he can run 10 miles. If the same person is sad and depressed he cannot run even 1 mile. It means the unwanted emotions – sadness, worries or fears will dampen the energy. They will pull down the energy level by deviating from the energy flow.

Our thoughts and emotions affects our body and organs too

That means our own thoughts, thinking process and emotions have a definite impact on the energy body and in turn on the physical body.

That means each and every organ is connected to the energy body/etheric body mentally as well as etherically. Therefore, our mental thoughts and emotions will have an impact on the physical organs.

However, anger will affect only certain organs, sadness and depression will affect some other organ, and worry will affect some other. For example, while liver is affected by anger, then it will not be affected by worry.

So each and every organ is specific about receiving a particular energy. As far as the receiving of energy is concerned, it is the chakra which decides that, because each and every chakra is connected to certain organs.

When the energy is received in the form of light, each and every chakra is specific in receiving only one color. In that way the energy field is processed and maintained by the energy body.
