August 2010 Issue # 47 Special request: Dragon energy? We have several references and books on the power of animal medicine, does anyone know what Dragons represent and how their energy can help us in our lives? Special request: Newly painted buildings: whether using latex or (I hope not…) oil based paints: please give the building the chance to fully air out before allowing your staff / office / etc. to work there. If you can still smell the fumes, it is still out gassing. Please see write up keeping your home toxin free.
Featured Healing
Modality
This may not be the typical topic for a healing practice but this is
very important in our lives and I truly believe learning to communicate
effectively is one of our biggest life lessons to learn and creates
healing in the workplace and at home.
Communication
Communication starts from the time we are conceived to the
time we pass to the other side. We all are raised with morals, respect
and are taught how to talk. But are we taught how to speak from our
heart and to share our feelings with love and no judgement. “When this
happens, I really feel….. “ “When the lights are not turned off, …. “
“When I hear your voice raise I start to feel …..”
Communication in the office:
when a person raises their voice in an office or business setting they
are creating a feeling of discomfort. Not only does the recipient feel
uncomfortable, but this is also felt by everyone else in the area. No
matter how we try to protect ourselves from this attack, the vibration
is felt physically and mentally. And yes, we do start to create a
barrier, so that when verbally abusive person enters the room we start
to shut down and also become very nervous to have them there. This is
especially hard when the abuser is the owner of the company.
A pattern I have personally experienced, is that when one
obtains a position of a business owner, they seem to believe that they
can get away with acting unkind because they are stressed. When their
voice raises or they verbally abuse employees and customers are they
showing signs of fear? Fear of losing control? Angry at something and
using the staff to vent on? Or that someone may say something that they
did not yet know in front of a customer? So many uncomfortable feelings
come out with the vibrations of the attacks and everyone around them can
be effected by this. Many employees put up with this behavior because
they depend on their paychecks.
I believe that even though an employee is paid for working
for a company: respect is required from both sides. When we hire
someone, we hire on their skills or labour that they can offer the
company. The employee is brought in to enhance the company and help to
increase the profit. The employeer is offering a job for the employee
and willing to pay for their skills or labour. Not only does the
business owners deserve respect but the person hired does too, along
with having a safe environment to work in. We flourish better under
safe and supportive conditions.
Communication in the home or
in public: the same applies here.
When we verbally abuse others because of our space being changed, or not
having things exactly the way we want them others we make the other
residents uncomfortable. If we are willing to live in the same place we
need to be ready respect each other.
Our emotional, physical and mental health is important at all times. So
when sometime is really umcomfortable you need to share the information
but wait till the anger subsides and you know you can talk and explain
in a constructive way. When I am asked nicely to make changes I hear a
lot better and can see why it is being asked and that I made a mistake.
When I am lashed at I blank it out and many times just end up not
caring.
Ideas for both:
I will not profess to be an expert at communication skills but have had
to learn very quickly in the last 2 weeks to express my feelings in my
home and at work. I also was able to see a pattern that I was using
over a year ago and do not want to go back to that.
No matter who we are, or what position we hold, the minute
we raise our voice or treat others and around us with disrespect, our
own level of respectalbility takes a big dive.
- If we need to inform someone of a mistake or set some guide lines, we
need to be calm, take the time to fully explain what is going on and to
also listen. When a person aggresively talks to me, I tone out, my body
shakes,
sometimes I feel intimidated, or embarrassed. As I feel not only my own
reactions, I am empathic to all those around me. While communicating,
we need to talk from our heart centre: no harsh words, no accusations
and no finger pointing. At any time, if we have a specific issue with a
certain person / employee, then you both find a quite space to talk.
Never put someone on the spot, that is very demeaning as it is
emotionally and mentally abusive.
- With what ever issue you are addressing, talk slowely, gage your
voice, and step back a bit if you have to. I would rather take a bit
longer to explain something that needs to be addressed in a kind way,
than to say something that can emotionally harm someone.
- At home, we need to explain what we require in our home / space, if
others come to share it. I have a habit of seeing something happen, and
ignoring it as I do not want to ruffle any feathers but the resentment
grows on the inside. I finally got the message, that when something
happens, address it immediately but with compassion and explain why a
change is needed.
As my friend says: “Communication is an art”. It is and communication
is something almost everyone needs to work on. Take your time, whether
you are a business owner, employee, supervisor, parent, child, etc. We
all need to respect each others space and when we do, we help each other
out by doing our part, respecting each others space and providing a
peaceful atmosphere for everyone, even when we get mad. Speak from the
heart and not from ego. We live and work together, a happy and safe
community brings more productive results and stronger friendships. No
matter what our role is: we deserve to be treated with respect, just as
we are responsible for treating others with the same respect.
Feature Article
Who Is In The Driver’s Seat?
By Pamela Shelly
Now more than ever, we are inundated with the media constantly bombarding us with doom and gloom. Never before have we had such access to news on a global level. Unfortunately it is rare when any news around the world is uplifting, happy or inspiring. If it isn’t the downturn in the economy then it is about the latest virus or terrorist attack. It is challenging for each and every one of us to step out of the ‘fear bubble’ and be more of an observer. Yet this is exactly what we need to do so that we aren’t contributing to the negativity any further and instead make a positive difference by doing things to counteract it.
Each of us needs to be especially diligent in our thoughts and the words we speak. I have noticed now more than ever, people are getting into the habit of saying fearful things. Many of you have likely seen The Secret or read books on creating abundance and manifesting; books by Esther and Gerry Hicks being some of my favorites. Whether you have or not, the bottom line is we can create that which we fear and our thoughts and spoken words are extremely powerful.
From the beginning of time, we as humans have had to face duality and have chosen the path of struggle to learn our life’s lessons. Our soul is all about LOVE and our ego is all about FEAR. Our ego is doing its best to help us to survive and it comes from reaction based on cellular memories of what has transpired in our past. It is afraid of the unknown and change and the words Faith and Trust are not in its vocabulary. It truly doesn’t know any better. Unfortunately, we too often give the fearful ego control of our lives and allow it to be in the Driver’s Seat. What I would love is for all of us to start putting it in the passenger seat, or the back seat and yes occasionally in the trunk!
Our words affect all those around us including our partners and children. Not only are those around us affected, but also on a larger scale our thoughts don’t disappear. The energy and frequency they hold go into our atmosphere and contribute to the fear consciousness that affects us all.
What feeds and fuels our fearful ego is our unresolved emotional issues, not only from this lifetime but what we have brought in with us to heal and release from many previous lifetimes. Many of us have themes of being unworthy, inadequate, unsafe, not deserving and the list goes on. While we still carry these deep core issues, we automatically go into fear and reaction when they are triggered. If you are not living moment to moment with clear guidance and peace of mind then you have unresolved karmic emotional issues. Part of my specialty is I can often tap into what gifts and abilities people have. So often over the years, I have watched while the fearful ego will do everything in its power to not acknowledge them, accept them and then express them. If we aren’t living our purpose then we have ‘Divine Discontent’ until we start to express who we truly are.
We are at the ‘End Times’ and we can buy into the doom and gloom or we can get excited that finally a new consciousness has arrived to balance the negative ways we have been living for years. It is not the end of the world as has been prophesized, but the world as we have known it has shifted and will continue to. The new consciousness will not tolerate a society of greed, environmental toxicity, and incorrect use of power and will be all about co-operation, sharing, community, and working together for the highest good of all. Many of the new children have come in to herald the changes and wake us up. Other than being mindful of your fearful thoughts and words, each one of us can spend more time in nature, meditate, start setting firmer boundaries in our lives and begin to truly acknowledge what magnificent beings we are. Start believing in your dreams even when the world around you seems to be crumbling. Balance your life in all areas and most importantly lighten up and have FUN!! Just know that each one of us signed up to be here in these times and we are here to make a difference. Hang in there and know that there is so much help in the physical and spiritual world. Just remember to reach out ask for assistance from your Guides and Angels and know that you are much loved and honored.

Weaving Together the Ordinary and Non-ordinaryA seven-day training in the wilderness of being.
August 8 - 15, 2010 Blacktail Ranch, Wolf Creek, Montana
Program Cost: $895 ~ Deposit: $250 Open to men and women
May the visible and the invisible come together in common cause. May the miraculous dance with the mundane. May we trust in the great intangibles, and in elements not yet seen or imagined. Let us be shaped and shifted, by what is revealed. We are the earth; the body and soul of all beginnings. We are the water; forming and restoring all things. We are the fire; magicians of transformation, dreaming fullness, and potential. We are the air; wind and spirit, transparent and without end.
Please join me for this extraordinary training in the elements of earth, water, fire and air and the practices that move us into the phenomenal world of the shaman. Our work is in bringing together ordinary and non ordinary realities. We will work together in the deepest sense of community; and in support of the Vision Quest.

Vision Quest
The Pilgrimage of Solitude and Seeking
August 8 - 15, 2010 Blacktail Ranch, Wolf Creek, Montana
Program Cost: $895 ~ Deposit: $250 Open to men and women
The Vision Quest is a vital experience in the training of the warrior. For millennia, men and women have quested to seek vision and to mark transitions. However, in all traditions, it is a contemplative way of being in nature that allows one to still the mind, to listen and to come fully present to our inner life and the presence of "other" whether animal, rock, wind or spirit. The Vision Quest is an experience of spiritual alignment that can significantly transform one's way of being in the world.
The Vision Quest includes three processes; severance from life as we have known it, solitude and incorporation. This structure and the remote beauty of the Blacktail Ranch combine to provide a quality of experience that is both life changing and life challenging. From base camp each quester journeys out to find their quest site, wherein one will enter a period of solitude for 3-5 days and nights without food. The program includes exercises and guidance in preparation and severance including the Rite of Purification, ways of being in the threshold, and a process after the Quest of incorporation and integration.
Although the Vision Quest is an experience of solitude, it is based in a rich sense of community. Relationships formed out of our capacity to invite death and transformation become inspirational. We do not forget each other, ever! http://www.susanrangitsch.com/index.php/main/programs_body-articles/vision_quest/ Sound Healing Workshop August 14 & 15th Kelowna, BC Working with the Hathors, Pamela will offer you a variety of tools and hands on experiential exercises.

(how to keep your family allergy & toxin free)
Newly painted buildings: whether using latex or (I hope
not…) oil based paints: please give the building the chance to fully air
out before allowing your staff / office / etc. to work there. Even if
you don’t feel sensitive to the fumes they can still effect you.
Our office moved into a place 2 weeks ago and the place had
been painted just the week before. Not only did it contribute to
rekindling a sore throat, I came home from work extremely exhausted each
day. I am not a person that will sit down for long and this hit really
hard. The third day I doubled on my Vitamin B’s and did feel better,
but still tired by 5 pm.
Even when I paint my own home (rare), the windows are all
opened and the rooms constantly being aired out. The air needs to
circulate so that the paint can finish out gassing. Before I moved back
into my home, I painted one weekend and let it air for over a week along
with placing some vanilla extract in a bowl in the middle of the room.
We can find natural ways to clean the air, and remember that any of the
air fresheners that you buy on the market, (I don’t believe are natural)
and contain chemicals like the paint.
The same applies with urethane for hardwood: using the oil
base urethane is asking for migraines and upset stomachs and this
urethane can take up to 2 months or more to outgas. New carpets, lino,
varathanes, partical board in cabinets and furniture and for some, pine
wood. All this stuff has chemicals and don’t rely start to outgas until
they are unpacked and placed into your home. Many of these chemicals
have an effect on your nervous system, your digestion, your skin, and
your lungs and muscles. New can be sickening until properly aired out
first. Can you air it all outside for awhile before assembling?

Another plant to be careful of is the leaves of the Rhubarb Plant. Yes, some of the big leaves can be fun to play with, but the leaves are very poisonous.
The Farmers Almanac: Just visited the site and the reading and information is amazing. They even have a kids almanac. www.almanac.com Have fun. Time to be harvesting: You can: freeze dry - air dry – freeze - preserve in jams, pickles, relishes - use in cooking and baking. Just harvested some sage and will harvest some more. Air drying for the winter. Excellent on poultry and in soups. The parsley and chives would be good for harvesting now too. Been eating some Swiss Chard and Spinach.
