  June 2010                                                                                                                             Issue # 45

 We are all working together to provide a healthier, happier and safer world.
 
                                                                            Feature Treatment
 
Readings: Psychic, Cards, Tarot, Mayan Runes, Tea Leaves
 
We all share what we see, hear, and feel all the time.  When we become connected to more than one person, source or space, we can receive so much more information as the energy is different and when we share how we are feeling with the energy or the picture we are receiving, we are sharing psychic / spiritual / earth information. 
 
Readings are provided in so many ways.   Talking, listening, watching, doing, drawing, singing, cards….
Readings are a form of healing.  They can help us to release emotions that we are holding on to, to strengthen how we view our lives, and for affirmations - which can bring a huge sense of peace.  Psychics provide readings in so many ways.  Whether you use cards, runes, tea leaves, crystal balls or crystals, we use something that speaks to us.  
 
Readings and energy work are similar: they are both a sharing of healing verbally (one more than the other) and both can have energy work incorporated.  When an energy practitioner shares with a client what they picked up during the treatment, many times the information comes psychically or it could just be the knowing.  Or even to empathically feel what the client is experiencing: is doing a reading on the physical and emotional state of the person.
 
When I do a reading, I can emotionally and physically feel things from the person that I am reading from.   But only things that need to be shared.   And many times information is limited, as I believe if there is something personal, that is not for me to know or share.   During the readings, I may get a strong sense of discomfort, hear a huge no to a question, or to smell something that is connected to the client in some way (perfume, detergent…).  Numbers, strong emotional feelings, to know what the client’s child is feeling, see a vision and more.  And I do admit, there are times when I get no answer or just don’t see it happening, and I will say, I don’t see anything on that. 
 
What is important for us to remember is that we can do what we want with information from a reading.  Did we listen to what the reader was saying?  Did we twist the words to fit what we wanted to hear?  Or can we use that information as an affirmation, or is it something we can use to make changes.  We can use the information as a better understanding of what is going on with someone else or even ourselves and help us to go forward.      
 
During many readings I know there can be energy / healing work happening. I can feel the shift of emotions, blocks, stress and more.   We are all able to share and help each other by using universal / psychic information, just the same as the ole gut feeling that you get as a warning.  A reader can see the amazing person you are.  They see your potential, and help you to learn to love life again. 
 
No matter what treatment I use for a client, it is universally guide energy healing with universal / psychic knowledge to help.  When we stay out of ego, and working with unconditional love we help to provide a more peaceful world.   No reader is the same.  We all have areas that we are stronger with and it takes practice and skill to know how to share verbal information with out ego and for the highest purpose of the receiver.   I find that a reading can be just as powerful as a full energy treatment.

To Tell or Not To Tell
 
I am often asked what I do with psychic information about the potential for trouble for someone else. Do I have to inform the person they may be facing a difficulty shortly?
I do not, for several reasons.
 
Sacred Individuality
To understand this seeming lack of caring, please understand I believe each of us is a master. This is sacred and inviolable; a prime directive. Each of us is the creator of our own individual realities. If someone is on a path of self destruction, that is their right. And it is only a potential. Everything can change. No one knows better how to live a life than the individual soul. You would not want someone, even well intentioned, to interfere with your life choices. We love our parents but at some point we want them to stop giving us advice. We want to blaze our own trail. Our individuality is sacred, guided by our own soul’s plan as we created it while still in spirit form. A person may have to hit bottom before awakening. If we keep giving them parachutes, they may not reach their turning point.
 
Disempowerment
To interfere with another’s life is to dis-empower them. It says “You are living wrong and I know how to run your life better than you do.” I may see important things about someone. So do you. But unless and until they ask you for help, clarification or input, they are not ready to hear it. Good intentions often translate as rescue. And rescuers need victims. They need them to validate their identity as rescuers. Although it makes the rescuer feel good, it reinforces victim mentality in others. It is not your responsibility or your right to change others.
 
The gift
I know you are thinking what about those who can’t help themselves. There is a healthy and an unhealthy way to assist. Mother Theresa’s gift was to see others as whole, not as victims. In placing herself in the heart of such neediness, she was a light for those in the dark. Light does not judge. It doesn’t intend to save others. Light does not inflict. It is simply available, impartial, and present. Let this be our guide.

            (how to keep your family allergy & toxin free)
We are entering the season of lots of sun and warmth, yet need to protect our skin.  For those of us who think we are indestructible, please think again.  I love the out doors and have a hard time staying in during the summer, love my shorts and skirts, but needed a wake up call. 
 
Several years ago, I learnt that I could not use the regular sun tan lotion, they gave me a couple of nasty patches of hives.  So I quit wearing anything at all.  Never really worried about burning, as I would throw my long sleeve shirt back on when my shoulders would get pinky looking. . 
 
A couple of summers ago, I was in the gardens, black soil soaking up the sun all around me, no sunscreen and my shorts.  That summer brought me many so called age spots on my legs.  Sun spots.  This summer, going to smarten up and find some light weight pants for the gardens.  Something airy and not hot when out there. 
 
Will be looking for some good natural and chemical free lotion.  But will also be doing a test patch on my arm before using it. 
 
Umbrella, (I believe the name is) can be found in several stores now) is a good lotion for all ages and those with very sensitive skin.  Not sure on the content, but if you know of someone who will not go to health stores for the all natural products, this lotion is really good.  No scents or perfumes in it.  The health stores carry quit a few products that have no chemicals and are very safe to use.
 
Take the time to look after your skin this summer, anything in excess, is not healthy.  And I will remember that I can be just as comfortable in light weight pants as shorts.
