...and then she opened a can of Whoop-ass!

Everyone is a teacher.

Jesse watched us in sheer delight like we were a clip on Americas Funniest Videos as I ran laps behind my kindergartener who ran around in circles until I caught him and put his snowsuit and boots on.

Time Standing Still

I told my son, “You did not teach a good lesson today.”

The next day his jaw dropped when he saw Jesse's mother run laps behind him in the vestibule. Okay, I admit it, it was hilarious...until she stopped…and opened a can of whoop-ass.

Jesse froze. His coat, boots and mittens went on in record time while he was harshly reprimanded, grounded and lost privileges for a week.   

The guilt on my son's face left no question: he knew he taught a bad lesson. 

Either we lead like the Little Engine who DID or we follow like a caboose on someone else's train. Those are our choices. We are all teachers.

As parents of adults, we don't chase our children around the cavernous vestibule in our mind. We stand in the energy frequency of faith and love where we hold the high watch knowing our best seeds bear fruit for our children. This is the meaning of prayer. It is done.

No one said it was easy to stop running laps around the vestibule--ask the Little Engine how difficult it is to master the demons in our mind and have faith when the terrain is rough--but we know it's possible to apply the principles of constructive thought and release it into the flow of the highest knowing it is done.

Rescue Dog's Miracle

Our pain management guru, Connie-pups, or perhaps the people around her, wove miracles with positive intentions and prayer bolded in her story below: 

Connie, an elderly dog with advanced osteo-arthritis, was surrendered by loving owners who could not offer medical care. 

HART Rescue’s mandate to improve dog's lives through fostering, behavior training and veterinary care aligned with my desire to foster to use my healing gifts to help dogs. Connie got healthier and stronger and I wished she had more psychological stimulation, like a companion dog or cat and a larger “sniffier” back yard. 

As we dreamed a big dream for Connie the Universe was making moves. When Connie came to HART a family who was fostering another dog wanted Connie, the timing wasn’t right, she needed to be with me … and then the magic happened ... their dog was adopted, I got injured, Connie had to go up for fostering, and 

                                                             BOOM! 

The stars aligned, the family that wanted Connie took her in, and, wait for it, here comes the miracle . . .  

Connie's new home has a dog, two cats, a doggy-door to a large “sniffier” backyard, AND she gets to go camping! It's doggy heaven!

Our highest intentions and prayers for Connie were answered. 

Connie. the unintended pain management guru’s journey demonstrates: 

• Energy medicine and prayers work: MIRACLES HAPPEN, but maybe not exactly the way we expect...it didn't heal her arthritis, it made the best of her life.
• Knowing what you want, acting in alignment with It and letting the Universe do Its part is a recipe for miracles.
• Connie sweetly and patiently surrendered to the Universe and the Universe surrendered to Connie. 

As bittersweet bon voyages go: the forecast is extreme happiness that Connie-Pups got the dream life we wanted for her, sprinkled a few tears...I miss my Connie-girl.

Pain Management Puzzle

The Pain Predicament

During a TV interview, two healthy-looking ladies who were suffering with pain said their pain management classes taught that it was best not to show pain {no moaning, groaning or holding body parts}, and not to talk about pain with others unless saying “no” without explanation would hurt someone’s feelings or kill the relationship.

Is this pup in pain? A group photo in a magazine's tagline was, “Which person in the group photo (of smiley-faced people) has chronic pain?” The next line said, “They all do”, including the pup in the photo. The pain management group photo and Connie-Pup's photo demonstrate that how we look may not be an accurate way to judge pain.

People who put a smile on their face and do their best in spite of pain upgrade their own mental health and give their best to the world, however, pain is a relentless beast that will take them down the minute they get home. Therein lies the conundrum: doing our best, when our best changes from one second to the next, and putting on a happy face may result in being misunderstood and misjudged; not putting on a happy face is social suicide in a world where “can’t” is judged as a sharp-edged “won’t”.

When pain management and people management collide: we don’t want to hurt your feelings, we don’t want to lose your friendship, we don’t want to talk about how much pain we’re really in cause we’ll have an emotional melt-down, it's just that when we say we can’t it’s not about you, it’s not a choice, we just can’t right now. 

Stray Dog Unlikely Pain Management Guru

Connie, a 12-year old stray dog with advanced osteo-arthritis turned out to be a pain management guru.

When Connie's whining, sleeplessness, and need for attention was deemed to be separation anxiety and her personality and personal choices were viewed as attention getting, Connie was actually waging a war with pain that was more intense than her very loving caregivers knew.  

When Connie's meds were increased her face softened, her hair laid flatter, she slept peacefully, she whined less and her exuberant, people-loving, hard-working personality surged forth: she walked faster, she pulled on the leash, she walked further until she hurt herself, and then, and only then, did she lay down and rest. 

When her pain meds were decreased her pain increased, her sleep was interrupted, she wandered around the house at night, she whined more, was capable of less...you get the drift.

There was no psychological overlay to her behaviour: Connie was unaware of medications or dosage. It was simple: the worse she felt the less she could do, the better she felt the more she did-- she did what she loved until it hurt and then she rested. This is animal nature, it is our nature: when we feel better we do better. 

For those of us managing extreme pain, including mental/emotional pain, consider Connie's situation and stop beating yourself up. Walk a mile in Connie's paws, she does her best every day, when she can do more she does more and sometimes she endures great pain and long recovery because she simply must satisfy her spirit's need to do what she loves. 

That is the nature of pain management. While Connie's first choice is to follow her spirit and do what she loves, people take care of business until it takes them down and they leave the rest, messy house, dirty dishes, lost connections. Connie's caregivers and our families and friends help us when they ride along with the ups and downs of the pain wave and they do with us when we can, do for us when we can't and don't punish us when we shouldn't have done it but we did it anyways.

How to Overwrite Hopeless Thoughts with New Thoughts

 Researchers have discovered that 1) we choose the thoughts we think and 2) we can only think one thought at the time. In energy work, thoughts are healthy or unhealthy, successful people think successful thoughts. "I can do it." "I did it!" This gives the energy field a positive charge. Thinking "I can do more and better!"charges your energy field, it affects everyone's energy field and this creates a magnetic energy that attracts more positive people and experiences.

The reverse is true for negative thoughts. Habitual negative thought patterns and imagining negative scenarios are a  "natural" part of depression. Negative thoughts, tear a person's energy field down; they tear it apart, push away the positive and are very vulnerable to attracting more negative conditions and experiences...picture how obsessive thoughts affect the energy field.

Research has found that we can't simply stop thinking, however we can overwrite unhealthy thoughts with healthy thoughts. From an energy standpoint, it's incredibly important to choose thoughts wisely and to ensure habitual thoughts are positive and they support the conditions you want to create in your life. If thoughts create the conditions of our lives,as science of mind has demonstrated, imagine how important it is to choose your thoughts.

Louise Haye believes all problems stem from not loving ourselves. A few examples of life-giving thoughts that will positively charge your energy field are: "I love myself." "I am healthy." "I am successful." "I belong." Repeat, Repeat, repeat! Imagine how far you can go in your life and what sort of conditions and opportunities these positive thoughts will attract!

Nothing presented in my blog overrides the need for medical, psychological and psychiatric care, however, if you are interested in how energy treatment can compliment your current mental health program, please email..

Hope

People are made of and powered by energy. A person may be sick now but energy is malleable and changeable, and so there is hope. 

Einstein said "Energy is neither created nor destroyed", and therein lies the hope: What is created now will be re-created. Re-forming energy is the frontier of energy medicine. It aligns "what is" with the vibration of "what can be". This is hope.

If you feel like you are a lost cause or a hopeless case and you want to give energy medicine a try, please email.

There's always hope.

How Reiki or Energy Medicine Works with Mental Health

Healthy Thought Creation

Although the "thinker" is perfect, thoughts can be healthy or unhealthy.  Habitual thoughts have incredibly powerful positive or negative charges. Their cumulative affects produce massive changes in the energy field, the body's chemistry, and the conditions of people's lives. The environment literally attunes to a  person's habitual thoughts.

If "thoughts are things" as Ernest Holmes believed, imagine if your habitual thoughts became matter and formed into the experiences and circumstances of your life.

In an energy treatment, thoughts are recognized as solid pieces of matter in the energy field. Negative thought patterns attract negative experiences. Removing  unwanted energy creates space which fills with healing energy and this allows positive thoughts to pour in.  Sounds wacky, but energy techniques help people.

Mental health care is a complex health matter, nothing overrides the need for proper assessment, medical, psychological and psychiatric care and following their recommendations. If you are interested in how energy treatment can compliment your current health program, please contact me.

There is always hope for people suffering with depression or mental health challenges. When people reach out for help, someone somewhere will be there, there is unlimited access to connect with people who care.  

Blessings,

New Thought meets Energy Medicine

What if what you are worrying about suddenly crystallized into fact immediately?  Do you want to experience the life you are thinking about? 

Luckily for us, our dominant thoughts coupled with universal and collective consciousness co-creates our experience into form and experience not instantly but over time. This gives us many opportunities to choose what we think. 

Energy Medicine, recognizes thoughts, beliefs, emotions and experiences as solid things or solid energy that exists in a person's body and that hangs in a person's aura or energy field. Every destructive thought, emotion, belief, experience "matters" and causes a rift in the energy field. People experience negative energy patches as dis-ease ranging from habits, addictions, injury, negative relations, awful experiences, to cancer and other physical, mental, and social diseases, etc., etc. etc..

The goal of Energy Medicine is to clear the energy body of disruption so the Divine Essance or Authentic Self, which is always perfection, will manifest. During hands on or Distance Reiki treatments the unwanted energy patches are removed. This creates a void in the body and energy field which the Energy Worker fills with healing intentions, life-giving thoughts, desirable outcomes and, of course, the potent energy of Reiki itself. 

Energy Medicine collapses the time it takes to release negative energy and offers immediate access to high vibration energy--a higher level of consciousness. The massive shift in the energy field offers the client an immediate opportunity to work with higher conscious than they they could access without treatment. It accelerates the client's capacity to accept and work with a higher degree of consciousness, wholeness, health, prosperity, love, and success. 

Energy Medicine enhances your ability to produce the conditions you desire equal to the work you do to clear your own consciousness and to the actions you take to express your authentic self. This is not magic, each treatment will bring you closer to your goals. People who do nothing to work with Reiki will have little success with it.

How Energy Medicine, Reiki, Works; Part One. New Thought, New Life

Thoughts are creative. This principle of creation governs the quality of life. 

The intelligence of the universe, thought or "the word", acts on energy, energy forms into matter and experiences. Everything that exists is a product of supreme intelligence that is governing and flowing through all of creation coupled with energy coupled with our own thoughts. 

While to a large degree the thoughts we have thought and are thinking are governing what we experience in our lives, we can't possibly control the Universe or be responsible for everything that happens, what we have complete control of are the thoughts we think and how we respond. This is our part in the co-creation process.

Stuff happens . What we think, how we respond & what we do to improve the situation is our part to do. I treat with Energy Medicine & Affirmative Prayer (affirm the highest & best truth). 

Energy Medicine, Reiki, applies intelligence, in the form of healing intentions and Affirmative Prayer, and applies specific resonances of energy or symbols that shift the constructs of disease at the energy level through the application of hands-on or distance treatment to make good things happen.

Please contact me for your complimentary gift of a Distance Treatment.
