Healing Trauma cd

Just a few days ago a friend enticed me to come listen to a healing meditation at her home. Little did I know what would occur when she placed the headphones on my head, instructing me to lie down, relax and  just listen. As I closed my eyes, soothed by soft music and Belleruth Naparstek’s gentle kind voice, little did I imagine the changes that were being initiated in my ability to heal and change the scars from old post traumatic stress wounds…

Her gentle imagery was not forced, but invited me to journey into my heart, into damaged areas and then on to a bright light at the core. This guided imagery invited me to pick up the pieces and discover control of my own destiny where at times of my life I had felt I had none. I opened my eyes at the end of the cd, left for my next appointment saturated with a deep sense of rest and peace. I realized that as I would listen to more of this work, I would go through deep changes, need more sleep, allow myself to experience the process.

Little did I know what had been opened and initiated. I had never thought of myself as perhaps carrying around post traumatic stress. I thought that was more for those who had survived some terrible trauma, and yet there are many things we endure in life that can leave their scars. As my heart shifted, tears poured forth over the next few days. I was tired and needed sleep. I was more sensitive than usual. At the same time I knew this was all good and that some deep core change was taking place – just from one little 30 minute guided meditation. What would happen if I listened to more of this stuff?

I was excited the floodgates had opened with such gentle prodding, and knew something amazing and good was taking place. I spent almost the entire night reading Belleruth Naparstek’s book Invisible Heroes, Survivors of Truama and How They Heal from cover to cover. She is a therapist who worked with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) for thirty years. She describes how she learned from her clients to go beyond traditional therapy (that just wanted to replay the wound), and how she discovered this magical way to work with the right brain, without approaching the wound directly. By gentle imagery she invites the wounded to take control of their life again, and shows them how ability to do so is inside of them.

“The bad news is that stress-related disorders are epidemic in our society. The good news is the new array of therapies that are truly effective in healing them. INVISIBLE HEROES is a package of hope for anyone whose life is compromised by the insidious effects of emotional trauma. This is one of those blessed books that deserves to be called life-changing.”–Larry Dossey, M.D., author of Healing Beyond the Body, Reinventing Medicine and Healing Words

The best awareness I got from this book is this: the best way to deal with results of severe stress is NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE DIRECTLY / NOT REHASHING IT FOR THE MIND TO GET OVER  (as in traditional psychology). Instead encouraging the right brain with the joys of life to create a much shorter path to overcoming the residual of any painful experience that has caused stress and panic, including more severe post traumatic stress disorder.

The truth is whoever we are and whatever our lives have been, we probably all carry some stresses that make us operate at less than our best, that open up the doors to illness and dilute our capability of wholeness. Bellaruth Naperstak has a guided imagery process available on cd for about $12 each (What else do you waste a few dollars on here and there that you could put towards your own well-being?), including PSTD, Self Confidence and Success, Recovery from Surgery, Relaxation and Wellness, Help with Panic Attacks, Relieve Stress, Help You with Weight Loss, Combat Depression, Ease Pain and Anger and Forgiveness.

She explains how deep stress actually changes our brain and survival hormones, causing patterns that affect body and emotion. Addressing these issues with her gentle techniques, Bellaruth Naparstek has seen wonderful and lasting recoveries. I can’t wait to get her several cds I ordered immediately, and begin changing the course of my own life for the better, even after all the years of work I’ve already done. It’s exciting to know I can change even more deeply and access my own ability to heal further. I’m telling everyone I know about this groundbreaking work – as one comment said this is probably the single most important book written in the field of psychology in 20 years.

Many of us can be counted among the walking wounded, suffering from what is now understood as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD. A traumatic life event such as death of a loved one, being attacked, surviving a devastating event such as 911 or participation in a war zone all are obvious causes of post traumatic stress. However also included in the potential for ongoing effects are difficult childhoods ranging from passive and aggressive parents to more extensive abuse, even a severe drug experience qualifies, as there are many dealing with today.

Results of such chronic traumas can haunt us in various ways in our lives ongoingly for many years. We compensate in one way or another and manage to survive, but at what loss? Today’s studies are now demonstrating traumatic stress causes variations in hormone levels such as adrenaline and natural opiates, as well as changes in the brain where perhaps logical abilities suffer in order to compensate.

Belleruth Naparstek’s book Invisible Heroes, Survivors of Truama and How They Heal is a brilliant gift to anyone who might discover they suffer from PTSD or any other residual of stress. She goes into easy to read detail with short excerpts from case histories to give us a deep understanding of the mechanism of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and how it operates. From here she takes us on an amazing journey into the recovery process.

Through working with clients she developed a rich and powerful process of visualization to assist a person suffering with PTSD to access emotional healing and restore lost aspects of self. Her guided meditations are spoken in her own soothing voice cloaked with understanding of thirty years of work, delicious musical tones transport us into the magical journey she takes us on for healing. Don’t put off getting access to this awesome work!

If you or anyone you love is living with the remnants of PTSD, or other sever stress, Belleruth’s work is a MUST HAVE -the book and something like 17 cds of guided imagery instantly available on amazon.com.

Doc, Bob's Percheron, San Juan Mountains

Living a healthy lifestyle eventually makes us look deeper for happiness and self-expression. “Follow your bliss,”  “live your dreams” are ideals we often keep on the back burner, but we have a guest this week who is living his dream, traveling with a team of two Belgian draft horses and one Percheron, his photo (left) as he drove into Pagosa Springs from the south.

We thought Bob Skelding Wagonteamster and his team would like to get off the road for a bit, so we extended the invite to enjoy spring grass in our pasture and he happily accepted.

We discovered many  serendipitous things – which tells us “we’re all in the right place at the right time,” especially when you live your dream. He’s from the same home-town as me, and his grandfather raised the draft horses I fell in love with as a child at our state fair. Randall gave him a sketch he’d done years ago of a friend’s draft horses here, and Bob drove in with the same pairing of horses as in that sketch. Then our friend Luanne (whose Belgian and Percheron horses inspired the sketch) invited Bob to help her teach a workshop this weekend for women learning to drive draft horses.

Mom and Girls Enjoy Bob's Team

Follow your bliss, live your dreams, you’ll meet the most amazing people, you’ll laugh, smile, and rejoice in the magic of life (as in Bob’s photo left). When I was a little girl I dreamed a white stallion lived in the field behind us (we were non-horse people). Little did I know that when Bob Skelding drove his draft horses in our gate and let them loose to play in the spring grass, I would have this flash that my childhood memory of the white stallion and love of draft horses come pouring over me like somehow I had become one with that little girl’s dreams again.

You’ll have to go check out Bob’s detailed journal of his travels at his website http://www.wagonteamster.com and particularly the posts about his visit with us and rest days in southwest Colorado. Stay tuned, we’ll be posting

Randall & Cary

videos over the next few days of the horses resting and Bob putting in an appearance at Luanne’s class for women driving teams this weekend. We particularly appreciate the nice photo Bob took of us, and we’re having a great time getting to know him, Doc, Billy and Bob, his wonderful gorgeous draft horses. Bob Skelding has come in touch with and shares great core values, capturing some of the magic of life to share with all of us, inspiring us on to live our dreams and follow our bliss. We’re also excited he joined our up-and-coming, Earth-friendly new online community, Virtual Earth Village and posted an article on gardening. We invite you to join us there!

Whoever took the time to put this document together cites many well-founded principles of natural cancer therapies. Hopefully it stimulates awareness and creative thinking for those seeking natural answers. Although I might state some of the points slightly differently, I wholeheartedly agree with Josh and Jeanne Rubin of  East West Healing - who say  “This is great info – who the heck cares?”

“AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO ELIMINATE CANCER JOHNS HOPKIN’S IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY .

Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person’s lifetime.

3. When the person’s immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation
the immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become
resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply .

*CANCER CELLS FEED ON:*

a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal,Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Bragg’s aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains,seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts)and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine.Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body’s killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Floressence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body’s normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.”

And remember – a lot of these principles are covered in my book Super Immunity Secrets – following cancer preventive lifestyle habits!

Today, you’ll find out how Europeans use this astonishing secret so you can heal yourself and your loved ones — and *prevent* yourself from getting cancer and other serious illness. Click here to check out the short video!

If you’re like everyone on this planet, you’ve undoubtedly been affected by disease in one way or another. Either you have suffered from disease yourself, or someone you care about is (or has been) a victim of cancer or other devastating illness — or maybe even *died* from one.

QUESTION: Did you know that there’s a simple therapy that has been *scientifically proven* to prevent and CURE virtually all diseases from minor ones like the flu to incurable and life-threatening ones like cancer, AIDS and Alzheimers?

HINT: This secret European one-minute therapy, which *anyone* can easily self-administer at home to help heal and prevent disease, is being deliberately suppressed in the U.S. — while more than 15,000 European doctors have been using it to heal millions of patients.

It’s important that you learn this simple therapy for cancer and disease prevention as soon as you can — before it’s BANNED by enterprises, pharma-cartels and agencies whose incomes are affected by the dissemination of this information. Go check it out right now!

Over many years of running alternative cancer institutes I was able to watch recoveries when people faithfully applied certain basic principles. It’s essential to create an environment in which cancer can’t grow. Really nature is not all that complicated, we simply must learn to understand and follow her “laws,” as described in my book Super Immunity Secrets.
