Immunizations

I would like to clarify some of my perceptions, opinions etc. about immunizations. Since the inception of immunizations, we've seen many diseases greatly reduced and some even disappear. The basic premise of immunizations is wonderful. Introduce the body to a small dose of the disease so our bodies can build up an immunity to that disease. What I'm opposed to are all the other things they (supposedly) put into the mix.

Clearly there are many misconceptions out there about immunizations, especially on the internet. I have done some research and asked some Doctors about what actually goes into the immunization mix. I have made a choice not to be immunized in the tradition way until I can prove to myself that what's in the mix is safe.

I do not like the intimidation and the scare tactics used to coerce people into getting themselves and their children immunized. Last I heard it is still a choice and not legally binding that you must get immunized. I do admit that in the past couple of years things have eased off and many health practitioners are advocating being as informed as possible and then make your decision.

At this point all we can do is be as informed as possible and listen to our inner self and follow what we think is the best option.

Choosing wisely at the Grocery store

Now that Spring has definitely sprung I am drawn more than usual to fruits and vegetables. When I go to the Grocery store there's a huge choice, organic or conventional? Sometimes I cannot afford to buy all organic, but I want to be as informed as possible about making conventional fruit and vegetable choices for my family.

Below are two lists of some of the least contaminated conventional choices you can make and some of the most contaminated conventional choices. The best approach is to eat a varied diet, rinse all produce and buy organic and local when possible. Coming up in May in the Greater Victoria area, local farmers markets will be opening, so please buy local when you can. Check local publications like the Goldstream Gazette for locations and exact dates and times of openings.

Least contaminated conventional fruits and vegetables:

onion

avacado

sweet frozen corn

pineapple

mango

frozen sweet peas

asparagus

kiwi

cabbage

eggplant

domestic cantaloupe

watermelon

grapefruit

sweet potato

honeydew melon

Most contaminated conventional fruits and vegetables:

peaches

strawberries

apples

blueberries

nectarines

cherries

imported grapes

celery

sweet bell peppers

spinach

kale

collard greens

potatoes

I hope this helps you make informed choices the next time you go grocery shopping.

Cancer can be cured

Before I begin I would like you to know that this blog is totally about my perspectives, beliefs etc. They are not right, wrong, good or bad they are just mine. My intention is not to offend anyone and I'm not bashing traditional medicine or any other modality used with curing cancer.

O.k. :) I believe cancer can be cured without using toxic chemicals to poison your body. I understand the premise behind chemotherapy, kill the cancer cells and yeah wipe them out if you don't wipe yourself out in the process.

The most important factor to curing cancer is that, first you believe it can be cured. As in the kind of belief that every cell in your body believes and with positive emotion attached to it. Not a kind of fearful, half hearted, well I hope this works?

I suppose you could say that I don't have a right to write such a blog having not gone through cancer myself. You could be correct? Many of my loved ones have died from cancer and I've learned a lot from their journeys. I've also learned a lot from my own healing journey and I am wanting to pass along, perhaps a different perspective and maybe have someone change the way they think about cancer?

I watched a video the other day from China (via YouTube - Gregg Braden, Curing Cancer Using Our Own Technology of Emotion) with a woman who had a large cancerous tumor in her bladder. A team of three, specially trained practitioners helped this woman. There was an ultra sound technician who showed the tumor before the healing took place and then recorded it during the procedure. The three practitioners chanted (to what loosely translates to "already happened" (the healing). Of course there's also a lot of energy/enthusiasm that goes into this chanting. It took two minutes and forty seconds and the tumor was totally gone. Wow! This is just one example, imagine, curing cancer is just that easy? So why isn't it that easy?

Well, for one thing can you imagine if over night everyone truly believed in holistic, fast, healthy and easy ways to cure cancer and they all worked? The billions of dollars that are generated every year for the "Cancer Industry" would be gone, hmmm. I believe that some of the scientific research that is being done and that has been done about cancer are amazing.

What I'm wanting to do with this post is make people aware that there are many other possibilities, even to perhaps just start thinking about it. I believe it's time to stop the "fight against" cancer. Mother Theresa was once asked to join the fight against violence. She said she would gladly attend when they hold a peace rally. Let's not "fight against" anything. Let's just start with new possibilities and if you like, miracles.

Three Pee's in a Podd

My brother in law passed away on Thursday evening (February 10, 2011). While this is a very sad event for my family and me, it also comes with gifts and many blessings.

Gig came to me on Thursday evening after he had passed on. He was sooo happy and zooming around, so much energy! He showed me a symbol and asked me to go and draw it. I got out of bed and grabbed a piece of paper and pen and drew the symbol. Gig smiled and said write this down..."Three Pees in a Podd." I showed my son Alton how Pees was spelled and he said that's definitely Uncle Gig. The three "pees" are three different sizes - small, medium and large. They reminded me of the two horses I work with. Me being the small pee and the other two medium and large. Gig said yes, this is your new business and the symbol is your new logo.

The three pees actually stand for Purity, Peace and Passion. You could also use prosperity, plenty, peaches, pamper, panacea (Universal remedy), parade, paradise, paramount, participate, party, particular, patience, pastoral, perceive, people, perception, perceptive, persist, pertinent, phenomenal, pretty, philanthropy, physical, psychic, pink, purple, pioneer, pivotal, play, playful, paint, pleasantry, please, pleasure, plenty, poise, poetry, ponder, pool, posh, positive, possible, power, pray, praise, precious, preference, premium, prepare, present, priceless, privilege, produce, profitable, profound, progress, potent, prominent, promote, prolific, provide, provident, purpose, pure, purse, puzzle. O.k., o.k. I think you get the point, pick any three P's for the podd.

I am very fortunate to be able to be paired with two sets of "Pees." These four beings are Medicine Horses. The elevator version of a Medicine Horse is a horse who helps people (any being really) heal, that is what they love to do. Part of our mission is to help people and other animals with their healing journeys. We would also like to bring awareness of self. Self being your mental, emotional, physical and spiritual self. Of course we must all be having fun while doing this, it's mandatory :)

I will be offering workshops and sessions at Mary's Farm and Sanctuary and also another private farm. Please stay tuned for dates and times ♡

Awareness

We are energy beings. We have an electrical system in us, energy is constantly flowing into us, through us and out of us. The thoughts we think are a form of energy that go out into the world and really do effect everything around us and our thoughts do help create our world. What do you think about all day long?

What do you attract into your life? Are you creating a world that you love and enjoy? Some times we create by default. Life just happens after all, right? No, you really do create your life, the good, the bad and the ugly! Why not become aware of your energy and your thoughts. Just become aware of what you think about all day. Focus your attention on your thought patterns, begin to notice the life you are creating. You do have choices and you can change your life.

We have seven energy centres or "chakras" in our body. These centres run vertically from the crown (top of the head) to the perineum in our bodies. The 5th, 6th and 7th chakras are said to generate thought, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd chakras are where emotions arise from and the 4th chakra (heart) is where our feelings and beliefs arise from. If you learn about your centres and what areas they govern and how to balance them, you will create a better understanding of your self and de-personalize your life situations.

When we marry thoughts with the emotion of our love or fear regarding them, we create feelings. Feelings are defined as "the union of thought and emotion." They're the basis of our beliefs and are formed in our hearts. (from Gregg Braden's book The Spontaneous Healing of Belief).
