We are living in a very exciting time. A number of energy healing techniques such as Reiki, Seichim, Pranic healing and hundreds of other healing techniques based on Reiki have recently emerged on the human plane of existence. Although in simple terms, these techniques involve the channeling of energy from a 'Source' to the 'recipient' through a 'channel', not everything is known yet. For instance, nothing is known about the exact nature of these energies. Only recently the s

A whimsical message arrived through my email. “Dear Lord,” it began. “So far today, Lord, I have done all right. I haven’t gossiped, lost my temper, haven’t been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish, or over-indulgent. I am very thankful for that. But in a few minutes, Lord, I am going to get out of ...

He said " Hold your arm up straight and let it go weak if it wants to." What on earth was he talking about? What does that mean? Is it a trick? Those were the things we wondered about when we first treated using muscle testing. What I now know about this experience was, it was my higher self, helping the practioner know what the Universe wanted from him.nnThe next thing you know, it was me, failing abysmally, trying to learn how to test others.

Keeping weight off permanently involves more than just plugging yourself into the latest diet or weight-loss trend. Successful and lasting change requires creating a new relationship with food itself. As you know, there are no good foods or bad foods. There are however, certain behaviors and ...

There is a saying, or more like an acronym that is used particularly in 12 Step Program circles and it’s HALT. This translates to hungry, angry, lonely tired and is what to become aware of so that you know it’s time to halt. In other words, when you are feeling hungry, angry, lonely and tired, it’s time to slow down, stop, redirect, and step back. It’s a call to rest. This is the perfect time for a reset and it best accomplished by taking refuge.

It's that time again - the beginning of a three-month indulgence that starts innocently enough with "fun size" chocolate candy bars at Halloween, moves onward to turkey feasts and homemade pies, and culminates with super-sized snacking in front of the TV at your neighbor's Super Bowl party. The ...

Our planet is humming with energy. We can sense and feel the vibrations of the collective consciousness and all the massive changes underway. We are being inundated with so much information and stimuli that our systems are being overloaded. Our lives can become so busy that we barely have a ...

Most people would like their lives to be perfect before they allow themselves self-acceptance. For example, we want to change our weight before we accept our bodies. However, the truth is that self-acceptance and body acceptance are pivotal to lasting weight loss success and a lasting sense of ...

The following episode with my 5 year-old son Anton made me yet again so grateful for having EFT in my parenting toolbox that I want all parents to know about it. It was an eye opener for me to experience first-hand how EFT addresses existing issues in children so comprehensively and deeply, and how it greatly contributes to avoiding some of the usual accumulation of emotional childhood baggage – what a blessing! Here is the story. On a walk to the park Anton accidently ran

We are changing from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius. There is much speculation as to when this is actually happening. The process usually happens over a 25 year period and the general consensus among many ‘New Age followers’ is that this started to happen with the Harmonic ...

Barry was brokenhearted because he really loved Tori. He rang me many times in tears but they still were not connecting. He seemed to be unable to charm Tori like he used to and now was having jealous arguments with Tori over this guy she ran across. I thought it was over hearing her resentment and dislike of Barry. Three months went past and I found out that Barry was sleeping over at my sister’s place 3 times a week. In the beginning I considered it was because of my neph

I wanted to leave a thought or two on how to get more energy into your life. nnOur culture constantly reinforces the impulse to do something external when we suffer from fatigue. Do you need to improve your diet and exercise routine? Or perhaps take more supplements? Sleep more? Although all of these things certainly play a role in maintaining energy, I want to explore a different angle, that of your internal emotional state.nnOften times, fatigue can be an indicator of apath

"I am going to lose 20 pounds!" "I am going to get back in shape!" Sure, everybody has a few ideas of what they would like to accomplish. But do you have REAL goals?

Through personal experience, I have learned some things about loneliness that I would like to share here. My hope is that there will be someone that reads this and “gets” it, thus helping them to make a few shifts in their perspective on life and daily practices. (Please note: This article is not intended for those who have recently lost a loved one. That involves some other set of tools for grief recovery.)

Colour healing has its roots in the ancient civilizations of Egypt, India, and China, and even lost Atlantis.nnHippocrates (C460-C377BC) defined man according to the four elements, relating male to fire (red), Art (yellow), female to earth (green) and water (blue).nnSir Isaac Newton(1642-1727) discovered how the colour spectrum is produced.

From time to time I have written about ways in which EFT can be very helpful when we want to get to sleep and can’t seem to. Recently, I have discovered an additional way to do this which I find extremely useful. You may want to try a variation of it at those moments when you want to get to sleep quickly. Before any of us fall to sleep, as I well remember from my studies during the years when I was engaged in research on sleep and dreams, we enter a period known as the “h

As you go through the intuitive healing process you need to know: each of us has our own special power. We carry it within; it waits to be awakened. Call it your inner self, your spirit, or light--however conceived, you must meet and come to know your core-essence. The source of all intuition, it is your fiercest ally and advocate against danger. By connecting with this part of yourself you'll mount confidence, feel safer in the world. Then whatever or whoever crosses your pa

When you decide to go to Bali for your holiday, your knowing it'll be warm there probably influences your choice.nnWhen you decide to go it's because you believe you'll have a good time.nnWhat you choose to eat is because your senses tell you the food tastes good.

Using EFT with your own children can be a most rewarding experience. It can also be extremely frustrating. Here are a couple of things I have learned from using EFT with my own children. You need to learn EFT well and do it on yourself first. If it isn't working, I would suggest this is the first place you should look, particularly with younger children. They tend to be intimately tied to your own emotional state to determine how they are going to feel. Remember, emotions get

1. Maintain adequate hydration: While it used to be said that the average sedentary person should drink 8 X 8 ounce glasses of water a day, this has come into question. Some experts say that this includes foods that contain water. In addition, while the thirst mechanism is said to kick in when it is too late, there is also some question about this. Exercise, heat and other variables also affect how much water one should drink. Thus, all I can offer is a personal reflection wh

If you want to get more, you just gotta give more. The more I give, the more I realize that giving is a wonderful karmic boomerang that loops right back to where it came from. This principle, I believe, applies to energy as well. If you want more good energy in your life, you must maximize your energy-giving potential. 1. Give energy to the people you live with. Do a chore you don't like that you usually passive-aggressively pass on for your cleaner roommate / significant oth

Can we create a better life through the power of positive thinking? Positive thinking is only a small portion of the process of conscious creation, but without it, we haven’t got a chance. People are more successful when they encourage themselves with positive thoughts and hold positive images ...

Do you ever find yourself agreeing to do something and later scratching your head and saying to yourself -- “Why did I do that” or “why can’t I say no!” Do you wonder why you cannot say NO, or Thank you, and NO in a firm, kind way. I do have pretty good boundaries and most of the time am able to do this, although there are times when I squirm and find it uncomfortable. Yes, squirm mode can be a little disconcerting. I am mindful each day to live in integrity so this is somewhat of a double YIKES situation.

Oh, no . . . You suddenly realize that you are well on your way to eating more than you had intended. Maybe it's a meal that you've already eaten too much of, or perhaps an unexpected binge. How do you stop? It is not going to be easy, and that is certainly an understatement, but it is possible ...

While women have become political leaders, ministers, bosses, CEOs and in many cases sole providers, and taken more and more away from home and garden, the masculine energy has become dominant. In many cases women have become more driven, than receptive, more out to meet the needs of others and fight for their right to be in the world, than to be nurturing and guided by mate al instincts and naturally heightened intuition.

Whatever the size of your house, no room is more influenced by a mixture of lifestyle and efficiency than the bathroom, according to the website 4ecotips.com. It’s now the hub of most households where you can grab a personal moment or two at the start of a busy day or totally relax at the end of it!nnBathrooms equal kitchens in the domestic feel-good factor stakes and are more likely, for example, to clinch a house sale than any other room. Increasingly we use our bathr

Back in the ‘70’s during the early days of my own journey into self growth I became excited about sharing my discoveries with those close to me. It was grand to learn of meditation, SRF teachings, Paramahansa Yogananda’s books and more. I felt as though I had come upon the secret of life and was eager to share it. Only to be met with skepticism or nonchalance. I kept wondering how could this be, I had come upon fabulous life changing processes that I very much resonated with and nobody around me shared my feelings.

How many days out of the week do you feel excited? How many times are you happy? If you are feeling stressed, depressed, overwhelmed with an eating or weight issue, involved in an addiction, or struggling with a lack of self-confidence, turning your life into a happier experience is ...

A few weeks ago, the husband of an EMC² Facilitator died. I won't divulge his name out of respect for his and his wife's privacy.The official cause of his death was cancer. Now, I knew the man. I had spoken with him. I enjoyed dinner with him and his wife. As a matter of fact, while he was alive, I spent at least twenty or thirty hours trying to find the energetic frequency of cancer in his consciousness. I never found it . . . during his life. I received repeated reports ab
