Prayer's and Healing

I think this may be the most personal entry yet. As a deep and mysterious pisces it is difficult to share my deepest movement, only because I am always moving thus my ideas are forever changing. It's a strong trait to not want any self-imposed judgement upon me. How dare you think you know me!!! hahaha Truth is I wear my heart on my sleeve and my emotions are as strong and as ever fluid as the ocean current. Here I am in my bright aqua colours splashing about and singing loud.
Yes the truth can be a scary place and as much as I love to frolic and fawn, serious awareness is imperative in my healing journey. The more in-tuned and stronger I become is when the deeper and delicate pains surface. Sensing the safety and trust within my body-mind-soul relationship, these bits of deep emotion release their strong hold and unveil my most vulnerable side. I am so grateful to my bits, that have held me together all these years, making my world work in the best possible way, now is time to release and renew, exchanging pain with love's light.

Now, as a side note allow me to digress in a manner that shall bring us back to full circle. Here I am, as a Canadian, surrounded by culture and living in the global village; free to pick the best of all communities, countries and cultures. And so I do. From childhood as my parents practiced an Eastern philosophy of meditation, and eating foods from around the world, I have been participating in picking bits and pieces to suit my needs. The freedom is immense and very liberating. I have the freedom to choose foods, ideas, philosophy, ideas, textiles, dishes, clothing, and most importantly healing and spiritual practices. In the end, I make up my own 'Shanti World', just the way I like it.
I honour all that I choose to work with and feel so privileged in the process. Blessings to the world and it's many facets.
Now the full circle is the prayer I wish to share with you that I have borrowed from the Hawaiian Huna process.
This is a strong and influential practice that must be complied with utmost honour and care. The process is in essence about Forgiveness. Forgiveness to others, to ancestors, and to one self.
This prayer has been in my repertoire for a couple of years now and it has been a lethal component to cracking the darkest of stuck emotion and fear. Blessings and my most humble appreciation for this work.
Here is where it comes together in a blend of my practices. For the past few months I have been contending with a rash on my face. I have been getting to the bottom of it with the help of my accupressure charts, macrobiotic charts (Your Body Never Lies, by Michio Kushi), You Can Heal Your LIfe by Louise Hay, and with my MAP team.
I was getting to the crux of things, also intuitively, but I just couldn't put it all together. So with the help of my mom and her pendulum dosing charts, we got to work.
Turns out I am having an allergic food reaction from the irritation caused by the lymph nodes in the mucus membrane in the ileum, small intestine also known as Peyer's Patches. There are also issues occurring with my liver and ovaries, everything is connected emotionally and physically. Wow. Everything is clicking. There is more to it, but this is the gist. Recommendations include Spirulina, Bio XII Tissue Salts, Acidophilus for the small intestine (Natren brand) and the essential oil of Vetiver; the oil of Tranquility.
After I got off the phone I immediately went to the bath where I do most of my work. Fish in Water, of course. I poured a big amount of magnesium oil with some rose oil and ylang ylang. Not having the vetiver yet, I called in it's essence to be present. With a candle lit, I eased into the steamy bath.
I opened up my MAP team and began sharing the recent information. Then I went to each organ in need to visualise the colours and thought connected. Bringing light down from Source, I visualised bringing this through my body to connect with the ground earth of Nature. Here is where I blend my practices. Beginning with the Earth Chakra I am connected with I began the mantra of the Ho'oponopono 'I am sorry', with a minimum of saying it three times I went through each chakra until I felt a shift, doing this all the way up to my Christ grid Chakra. I went through each mantra exactly the same way; 'Please Forgive Me', 'Thank you', 'I Love You'. Wow, unbelievable work. with certain parts of the mantra and in certain chakras, like the sacral chakra, energy was really moving. This completed I checked into the colours of each organ and visualised my skin in the cool waters of the arctic. Calming and relaxing my body and ending my process in a prayer I got out of the now cool bathtub. An hour had gone by. I had no idea.
My healing process began, and deeper I went into cleansing and clearing with help of supplemental support, restricted diet, yoga and sleep. The healing and the emotional element are a big part of the journey that I am only just working through. I appreciate the process but more importantly I appreciate the tools I have blended from the World's knowledge to help me along my path to a stronger, healthier and clearer ME.
Blessings in Light and Love
I am Sorry
Please Forgive Me
Thank You
I Love You

Winter's Tickle

Okay, it's not quite winter, yet! About 11 days to go before old father winter comes a whistling down our necks. But this doesn't seem to stop the nasty little bugs from jumping off one another infecting us like barnacles on a ship's hull.
The theme this year has taken to the lymph nodes. Specifically the nasal canal and throat. It begins with a tickle and a scratch and winds up restricting the air ways with swollen red glands.
Now I don't mean to place intention on to others that will withstand this infection, but from those I have spoken with and have endured myself, well this goes from experience. The rest of you; stay on alert, may this navigation steer you clear from barnacle island.
Now I must admit I am on my second round of lymph infection..I guess I didn't get the message the first time and tried to sail right over the rocks rather than pay the toll. The toll of surrender. But later on this.

In order to set your course through calm waters, consider these points of interest.

1. Tea Tree Oil -my strong astringent friend that burns you to truth
As a rule I use tea tree oil everyday to protect the ears. A dab on a cotton swab then dipped in water, placed gently into earl canal and give a good swipe around.
This will prevent germs from entering into your system. If you feel soreness and tender tissue, this is a sign of potential swollen lymph. If you pull the swab out and find dark and an excess amount of ear wax, then the body is fighting an infection of sorts.
Important and most forgotten tip, germs love to travel through the ear canal.

1b. Gargle with tea tree oil. 3 drops in a small amount of water. swish, gargle, spit.
In general this cleans the mouth, teeth and tonsils.
It will also help fight infection, bring down swelling of lymph nodes and reduce itchy, scratchy throats.
Continue to gargle through out the day based on level of infection. Best to do separately from other medicinal aids and food.
My personal experience, years ago I fought strep throat with tea tree oil when I was fed up with taking antibiotics. This is a very personal choice and everyone must follow their own instinct when self healing. Be sure to recognise your body's conversation with you and be intuitive, and most importantly; take responsibility for your health.

2. Colloidal Silver Sovereign Silver Brand. The one and only true silver that won't turn you blue. Know your silver and do some research
Silver is antimicrobial (bacterial, fungal, viral) take as directed is very effective, and will cool the throat. I drank an entire bottle in two days to help fight the infection. Take away from tea tree and other foods. Acts similarly to homeopathic medicine.
I use silver for so many things. It is just always in my defence tool kit.

3. Lymphomyosot N. Heel brand, homeopathic medicine.
Taken as direct, away from foods, liquids and other medication, will stop any sort of lymph stress in a heart beat.

4.Immune Support
Give your system a boost by any number of supports out there. My only criteria is that it is of whole constitution. For example; Acidophilus, Reishi Mushroom, Cordyceps, Shitake, or a complex of whole mushrooms, Propolis drops, Pomegranate juice, Nettles, Burdock, Fennel seed, and other nutrient rich herbs. It is important that you support your body, not treat it from doing it's job. Therefor it is equally important to keep the inflammation down in the intestines, the house of your immune system, in order for the body to actively partake in the healing process.

5. Refrain from simple sugars, processed foods, caffeine, dairy or fatty foods.
6. Drink a consistent amount of water and herbal teas.
7. Wash your hands frequently and refrain from touching your face.

8. Hot lemon drink before bed, my favourite.
Boil some water
Take your favourite mug and fill it with a half squeezed lemon, a pinch of cayenne, fresh grated ginger, and a dollop of raw local honey.
For an added bonus: a cap full of dark rum! (sailor's bestfriend) ZZZzzzzz
Drink as hot as possible, slowly but consistently. You really want to sweat this infection out

9. Slippery Elm slurry
Now if your immune system is really down, I find a concoction of slippery goo and can really kick your system into action and kick out any residing infection.
I have come up with this on my own over the past years and found my patients to recover quickly.
1/2 tsp slippery elm powder
1/8 tsp myrrh powder
6 drops of propolis
enough honey to blend mixture to together
boiled hot water just to blend
drink up!

9. Listen to the message from the body.
Is there more than just an infection going on?
Yes it can be as simple as getting caught in the cross fires of berating germs from a child or walking into a room of germ gremlins that will feed on any living soul. Oops, just happened.
Or it could be, like me, that I am good at healing my self quickly by taking preventative measures consistently. sometimes one can be too good at taking care and the message was not received. And when it is affecting persons everywhere, then the message is of a cosmic consciousness.
Our dear friend Louise Hay says the following about infection and lymph (You Can Heal Your Life)
Infection (probable cause): Irritation, anger, annoyance
Lymph (probable cause): A warning that the mind need to be recentered on the essentials of life. Love and Joy
New thought patterns: I choose to be peaceful and harmonious. I am now totally centered in the love and joy of being alive. I flow with life. Peace of mind is mine.
Try it on for size.
Surrender to the message.
Be healthy.
