Full Circle Healing – What’s Missing?

I often get emails or comments on the blog here from people who are doing an excellent job of managing the physical component of their dis-ease (unease, imbalance). They are well-researched, rigorous and thorough. And they're getting good results - just not the results they hoped for. Or it's taking much longer than they thought [...]

Horse Meditation Circle – New Healing Technique

Well, I thought I was hosting a meditation circle with my horses and my friend Katie Hess and her crew from Lotus Wei (flower essence energetic medicine) who were visiting Vancouver on their Flower Lounge tour.

Listen To Your Gut – In Your Little Corner of the World

Let's go on a little audio-visual, interactive journey together... It's okay if this hurts a little, or maybe more than a little.

We Must Move Forward!

My message from my craniosacral session this week was about further integration of the left and right sides of my body. The left side of the body corresponds to the feminine. The right side is the masculine. In my body, this delineation is so pronounced that my fingernails on my right hand are just like [...]

Dive Headfirst Into Your Brilliance

Child Me vs. Adult Me in the Healing Journey

I Get The Message and the Symptom Disappears!

Receive Healing From Animals

As you walk your Healing Journey and you delve into not just the physical contributors to your dis-ease, but also the emotional contributors, I want to call your attention to one more source of healing: The animal world.

Pelican Medicine For Your Healing Journey

I just got back from a couple of weeks in Akumal; which is on the Caribbean side of Mexico. The resort we go to is particularly wonderful because it is owned by a local Mexican man and is built horizontally - all along the beach. So whether you're sleeping, or eating, or walking around, you [...]

Psychic Predictions Can Help or Hinder Healing

UPDATE: My friend who received the original psychic prediction emailed the psychic back for further clarification about the cancer. However, due to the holidays, the psychic did not answer her right away. This gave my friend time to do what I suggested above - and she asked 3 of her closest friends what they thought [...]

Childhood Chronic Illness & The Family Dynamic

There are many different factors that contribute to childhood chronic illness; ranging from environmental and nutritional factors, through to emotional and psychological factors. In my experience, if a child becomes ill and remains ill, it is rarely, if ever, just about the child. Obviously, the mother and father are responsible for their children's physical health, [...]

Using Emotions To Unlock Your Self-Healing Power

I read this really GREAT article in Oprah magazine, by Raphael Cushnir, where he shares the process he developed to get people who are stuck in cycles of sabotage, or inertia, or confusion... FREE.

Music As Healer

This video provides an excellent example of music as an enjoyable and powerful tool in our Healing Journey. In her quest to become a world-famous violinist, Ji-Hae Park fell into a severe depression. All the words of help became a miasma of noise until, ironically, only music was able to lift her out again. But [...]

The Story of The Pencil – Inspiration and Encouragement

This short story is excerpted from Paulo Coelho’s book on short stories and reflections, Like the Flowing River.

Micro-Lending – Loan $25 For Free!

Synergistic Healing – Meditation, Prana, EFT

Annabel Fisher and I did a presentation together at the Canadian EFT Gathering a couple weeks ago - where I presented the theory behind combining more than one powerful healing tool together, for a synergistic effect that greatly maximizes the healing possible.
