I have a cousin who chose to become a carpenter rather than going to college. Fortunately for him and those who benefit from his beautiful work, he did not heed the advice of many family members who told him he would fail and never make money without a college degree. Once, while he was on vacation, he came to my home in Hawaii. It was hot. At the time the only air conditioning I could afford was a window unit, but I had no window to put one in.

When someone comes to me looking for an instantaneous healing, I know we are not likely to make very much progress. Are you wondering why? Doesn’t it seem to make sense that the more the person is able to believe in instant healing, the more likely it is going to happen? Indeed, I love to offer healing sounds and support to people that believe in the power of energetic healing because we are most likely to get results. However, there is a difference between believing in miracles and looking for them. Someone looking for miracles is usually desperately hunting to find a solution.

I have a Headache, but I don’t know if it’s Sinus, Allergy, Migraine or TMJD. My ENT doctor says I have a sinus headache. He told me to stop irrigating with flow back squeeze and pot devices that reinfect you. My dentist says my headache is from my jaw. He says I have temporomenadibular joint disease syndrome or TMJD. He says I open my jaw to the side which causes my headache. He has me practicing opening my jaw in a straight line. My internist says my headache is due to n

When you are really feeling poorly, it is difficult to feel grateful, and yet it is one of the most important times to count your blessings. Why? When you allow the pain to cause you to be worried or upset, your energy field closes down and it is difficult for any treatment to get through your fears. Gratitude opens the heart and when the heart is open, healing energy is most effective.

We find ourselves in the midst of summer with August on the horizon. In many cultures, August is the harvest—the reaping the rewards of what you planted last spring. August is also a time to pause, reflect and refresh. This is the time to slow down a bit, take stock of where you are and where you are going. Are you still headed in the right direction achieving your goals or do you need to adjust your course? Are you getting what you want or is what you want still just out of reach? Are you enjoying the journey so far, or do you feel discouraged and upset about what is not happening?r

Due to fast paced daily lifestyles, eating on the run, people have to face a constantly growing endangerment: the over-acidification (Acidosis) of the body cells, which will interrupt cellular activities and functions. It is a major root of sickness and disease. Having our cells constantly exposed to an acidic environment leads to Acidosis! Acidosis is an increased acidity (i.e. an increased hydrogen ion concentration). If not further qualified, it refers to acidity of the bl

It is easy to get caught up in our materialistic society that equates feeling joyful and happy in life with acquiring material possessions. If we just have that new home, new car, new dress, etc, then we will be filled with joy...... or will we?

Headaches are one of the most common complaints within our society. Almost every day you will encounter someone who complains of a headache that day and looks for a way to make the pain go away. Why is it so difficult to truly make one headache free? What can we do about them? Thing that most people I know do about their headaches is reach for a pain reliever that will hopefully make their headache go away. Some go for over-the-counter pharmaceuticals that suppress the pain but deliver a long list of side effects we really are best to avoid.

2008 and the early part of 2009 saw global sharemarkets take a nose-dive as people watched their hard-ea ed savings in share investments and superannuation get substantially wiped off. The doom and gloom merchants, largely in the media, would have had us believe the global economy was irretrievably collapsing. The fear thus generated in people caused them to feel like powerless victims completely unable to control the direction of their life. Isn't it time we realise we have been controlled through media-generated fear and disaster for too long?

How many times have you said to yourself, “I’ve been working on this issue for years, yet I just don’t seem to be making any progress. Why am I still stuck?” At times I’ve even been known to say to myself in exasperation, “But I thought I’d cleared that!” The issue can be anything at all – attracting abusive relationships, being stuck in financial struggle and lack and not being able to move through deep-seated fears, to name a few.

Is it Allergy or Sinus or Hay Fever? How do I stop the drip? You are sniffling, sneezing, dripping. Is it allergy or a cold? If it’s Spring, you probably have an allergy. Your best prevention is to remain on your yacht and avoid contact with sniffers, sneezers, coughers and blowers. See if your insurance covers the yacht. Smiling helps prevent a cold. Studies show that there are fewer colds among persons who smile. Smiling activates immune factors. On the other hand depres

You’ve been doing 80 hour work weeks, eating whatever is in the office refrigerator or what someone brings in from the fast food places down the street and you haven’t had a full night’s sleep in a couple of weeks. You are tired, grumpy and unproductive. You’ve never liked getting up in the morning but now you really dread having to get out of bed and drag your body to work. It takes a pot of coffee to get your heart started and your head focused on the task at hand.

A few readers have asked me this question in each their own way, according to their personal spiritual beliefs. This is a very important question because our beliefs significantly affect our approaches to health and even the degree to which we heal. Beliefs like this are so easy to accept as our reality, and yet so limiting to our healing process. Discover more beliefs that can limit your healing at: http://misahopkins.com/beating-the-odds-free-special-report/rnr

When you bought your home and moved into a new neighborhood, you checked out the local hospital, local public schools, the fire house, and the local grocery store. You were making sure that all of your needs were met. But do you do that for your wellness? Do you scope out resources before a crisis hits? In most cases, sadly no. What is a whole wellness team? A whole wellness team is a team of health professionals and doctors with group effort take care of all of your wellness needs; mind, body and spirit.

Children are to a degree necessarily imbalanced. They are in a constant state of change. Children seek to discover the limits of their control over their environment. What has become known as childhood infectious illnesses are the training ground of achieving and maintaining balance in their life as an adult. The ability to react appropriately to stimuli is a learning process. If a lion comes up and bites you, you should bleed! If a child is challenged by microbes their body should react appropriately by producing a fever and the lymph nodes should be activated.

After reading my recent article on Diabetes and Self-Healing, one of our readers told me that although she has diabetes, she believes she is quite adept at fulfilling the spiritual-emotional need behind this condition—acknowledging the sweetness in life. But that realization hadn’t caused her diabetes to go away. This is a significant observation in her journey.

Let me share a powerful technique I have found for assisting anyone struggling to release their old patterns. Many of you will already have heard of Emotional Freedom Technique, commonly called EFT, and may even have tried it. It aims to rebalance the body by systematically tapping on various meridian points around the face and upper body and has been used successfully to treat anything from fear of heights to confidence.

Daily stresses often manifest physically in constricted, shallow breathing. Try these easy, quick and most of all, effective, breathing techniques to restore calm rapidly. Bringing mind awareness to deepening the breath immediately turns on the parasympathetic restorative nervous system to safely help release accumulated stress. 3 DEEP BREATHS Ground and centre yourself quickly by taking 3 long, slow, deep breaths and in between each breath say the words ‘Deeper Relaxed’. CALMING BREATH / TUMMY BREATHING • Lie on your back or sit comfortably.

Where I grew up, pollution was so heavy, the sky glowed orange and the smell of burning chemicals lingered in the air. I was born in 1963 on the Texas Gulf Coast near a conglomeration of oil refineries. I remember my aunt exclaiming with great surprise when she bought a new car with a guarantee on the paint job. She lived across the street from the refineries, and the air pollution honestly was bad enough to fade paint from a new car within a year. No kidding!

My interest in crystal energy began when I was 13 years old. I want to share that experience so you understand my relationship to crystals. Like many teenage girls I was a shopaholic. Browsing the jewelry shops I often came across crystal bracelets, earrings, necklaces, and rings. These pieces called to me, and I began to amass quite a collection of stone and crystal pieces. In the morning I picked out my crystal jewelry like an outfit, intuitively choosing the best vibration

People have been drinking tea and using it for medicinal purposes for thousands of years. In recent years we have seen more research being done on the benefits of tea for our wellbeing and the results are confirming many of the traditional uses. There is a long way to go before we see a greater number of studies completed, but it should not be a reason for us to delay enjoying a delightful cup of tea and reaping the benefits. Green tea and black tea are most commonly thought of when we mention tea drinking and many studies are done on them specifically.

When I was a teenager, I remember stopping at a convenience store, purchasing a box of six old fashioned doughnuts and then eating four of them in a row. It seems I was able to burn them off fairly quickly because my metabolism was moving quite fast, but I’m not convinced I was doing my body any favors with the processed sugar and bleached flour.

I worked with a client recently who deeply desired to live her passion. A part of that success meant speaking in front of large audiences about beliefs that she was very passionate about.

If you aren’t certain about where to begin accessing your intuition or you want to be able to tap into more of your intuitive guidance, one of the best and most enjoyable ways to access you inner wisdom is through creative expression. Why? Inspiration and intuition are kissing cousins. Ask a gardener why she planted certain flowers together in a bed, and she’ll tell you about how they are compatible, of appropriate heights and widths and then she’ll end up telling you she just thought they would look good together.

One of the great ironies in life is that in order to accelerate your healing, you have to slow down. —Misa Hopkins, The Root of All Healing In our crazy, busy lives driving to the office, working in fast-paced environments, watching hours of television, and keeping up a rather intense pace until it’s time to go to bed, we are missing something vital to our health—connection with nature.

Emotional hungers you may not even be aware of can drive you to make choices and behave based on emotional need instead of what’s actually best for you. This kind of emotionally-driven behavior has natural consequences, most of them unwanted. To turn this around, there are some constructive steps you can take. Emotional Hungerr

One of our readers wants to know about healing back injuries. Many, if not most, of us have injured our backs, so we know how debilitating it can be have back pain. Before we look at the energetic roots of back injuries, let’s take a look at the prevalence of back injuries that occur. Consider this information from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/backpain/detail_backpain.htm:

The subconscious mind has a lot of power that can influence the way that you think and do things. This is because everything that your subconscious takes in as negative is reflected in your real life as equally negative, talk about pain, frustrations, stress, bad relations and so forth. The best thing is that you could transform such a negatively filled subconscious into your infinite reserve of everything you need in your life by employing subtle healing techniques that will

Stop allergy and sinus with “oooommmm._ Don’t you want to be one of the 175 million persons that don’t have sinus or allergy problems? Why is that your friends are free of dripping and hacking, but you are not? Why do you have to be one of the 37 million persons plagued with sinusitis? Is it rhythm that makes the difference? What is that honking sound you hear when your brother blows his nose? Does that mean that the nose is like a musical instrument? Ugh! Actually the nose

One of my readers asked about how to heal from diabetes. I love questions. They challenge me to dive in deeply into the spiritual and emotional roots behind illnesses.

Recently, my wife and I went on vacation, and I had to explain to my nine year-old son why it was just the two of us going. I explained that mom and I needed time for just the two of us, just like he and I spend father and son time.

This article will be of great benefit to you, even if you haven’t had any prior experience in healing with energy.

I was recently asked a question regarding how to encourage cell renewal for a specific organ. Here is the wonder of energy healing: you don’t have to understand the organ or have a detailed intention in order to heal it energetically. Some years ago my doctor told me one of my fallopian tubes was collapsed. She understood I was an energy healer and was supportive when I told her I wanted to do some energy work before doing any further tests that might lead to surgery.

Have you ever sat at the beach and watched the waves – the rhythmic patterns of the swells, the ebbs and flows? I'm so blessed to live by the ocean again. I love watching the waves flowing onto the shore, drawing back to sea. It brings such a peaceful feeling. Sometimes emotions can be like the waves. The swells, the ebbs and flows. But they don't always feel so peaceful. Sometimes they feel really uncomfortable and scary. Like the waves, they can feel very powerful and even dangerous – especially when a storm is brewing.

Have you started yet? You know, have you started the process of telling yourself that this holiday season you can handle more than you really can? I used to be so good at doing that. I thought I was the holiday super woman so I’d be running around doing all kinds of activities, eating all kinds of foods that weren’t good for me, and staying up late getting ready for various festivities with family and friends. I spent so much time getting ready—including buying and wrapping “presents,” it was a wonder I ever actually enjoyed the season with my loved ones.

Have you in any time wanted to grab the guitar and commence playing your own music but procrastinated? How about admiring music artists and bands that happen to be performing on stage? Sometimes you may likely have quizzed yourself: “Just how can I be just like these individuals?” Well, the initial thing you actually got to actually do is to make a change and figure out the classical guitar. Just before you dive straightaway into the world of guitar playing, this is defin

Carl Jung once said, "Nothing so affects the life of a child as a parent's unfulfilled life."

[Watch the video: http://youtu.be/PQbcIVX5T0I] I like to put a reframe on the topic of boundary-setting. Think about this: If you are walking around with boundaries all the way around you, think about what this looks like. Think about what this feels like. You are building a wall all the way around you like a fortress.

It's great to learn Thai Massage techniques, but this is only the first step to becoming an excellent therapist. Here are twelve elements which are essential ingredients to study Thai Massage for best results. 1. Not getting stuck with a standard whole body routine or sequence

My garden is my pride and joy and it broke my heart to see the beautiful plants being cooked in place in the extreme heat over summer. Combined with the drought conditions, many of these plants appeared to die completely. Then the miracle happened. The inner Resilience of these plants refused to let them die and with the first decent rainfall they seemed to be rebo as green leaves appeared and the grass regenerated. All those plants that would normally have flowered over summer, but had been struggling to just exist, suddenly burst forth into bud.

The general appearance of the chakra can be visualised as a a twining plant with trumpetshaped flowers. The stalk of the flower reaches into the spine with the flower extending out from the spine to the outer body and etheric double. The divine energy from the Solar Logos pours into each centre. On the surface of the etheric double it sets up at right angels to itself and the energy pours forth. Then the secondary energy flows in a circular motion through the chakra. In a sense, it resembles the bar magnet and induction coil.

Facials are the second most popular beauty salon treatments after massages and they are enjoyed by thousands of people in the UK every year. There are a variety of different types of facials that can be performed all of which aim to give you clear and hydrated skin at the end. The type of facial that you will receive will usually depend on the type of skin that you have and this will be discussed with you beforehand with your beauty therapist. What does a Facial Entail? If yo

For many years I thought my real spiritual work would begin once I was fully healed. What I didn’t understand was that my self-healing was my spiritual path. It wasn’t that I needed to get better and then I would have the energy to devote to my spiritual awakening. It was the other way around. Discovering my unique spiritual gifts—and learning how to apply them in every area of my life including my healing and awakening—was the journey. In fact, much of my awakening has taken place as I have been focused on self-healing!

This is an account of one the strongest experiences of my life while serving as a Therapeutic Musician in Hospice Care. Music has probably been used to ease the dying process since time immemorial. I have had the privilege of being present when people die while playing prescriptive music to ease the transition process.r

It is all too common that sometime in a person's forties they undergo what is popularly termed a “mid-life” crisis. Either this is because they suddenly realise life is passing them by and they have not met the goals they aspired to in their twenties, or alte atively the person may have been “successful” in obtaining their goals, yet somehow their life is still devoid of meaning and they have a gnawing emptiness inside. Why?

With all our mental smarts, so many of us are still struggling with poor self esteem, aggressive behavior, depression, obesity, sedentary lifestyles, addiction and chronic stress.
