April 2024 – Practice Doesn’t Make Perfect

When  I am called upon to teach or mentor on the subject of “what I do” it is not always obvious that my sessions emerge from nearly 30 years of study and practice.  It looks effortless and it is easy to become impatient to apply this work for ourselves, families and clients.  Many of the techniques I like to share so that you can support your health, reduce stress and respond to sudden change represent a profound opportunity to reconnect you to your unique Blueprint of Health.   We are so conditioned in modern life to hand over the reins to our practitioners that it can be a challenge to practice taking care of ourselves. 

March 2024 – Rules

Rules are just belief systems, right?  We are born and placed into a container that includes laws, rules, customs and dictums.  We definitely bristle at some of them and we often get a correction – back into the container.  As we gain experience and wisdom along the way we can shed some of the rules.

For all the laws that have changed but our beliefs are still held in the body, we get our topic for this month’s balance.  Remember the time when weed was a felony, women were not allowed to own property, unions were illegal, morality and discrimination laws were employed and so on?  We may know that these rules are no longer around, and yet the triggers for them remain from the days they were first “taught” to us.  Even laws that evolved a couple generations ago can affect our energy fields in the now.  Let’s look for the outdated pathways and through awareness return the energy spent on them to our present day bodies.

For my part, the law that stands out in stark juxtaposition is the purity model of how unwanted pregnancy has been treated from shame and exile to contraceptive use and abortion and seemingly back again.  What a whipsaw of an energy burden it places on all human beings.

February 2024 – Effortless Hard Work

You may come to Energy Work through pain or rough emotional times and find the experience of having a balance session apparently effortless.  No fascia is being pried apart, no knot is forcibly loosened.  No explanation of the heartache or frustration is expressed.  Effortlessness is very liberating. It sounds simple but we keep peeling layers of that concept as we go deeper in our journey and into our sessions. 

When we reestablish good healthy internal communication, via the blood, nerves, lymph, scalar waves and torsion fields in the body, mind and field, the healing appears.  Healing appears effortless as opposed to the hard work we think we need to do.

January 2024 – How does healing happen?

When I opened my clinic fifteen years ago, I’d already spent ten years questioning and studying healing methods.  I learned Reiki, Ayurveda, circuit training and dance, acupressure, Body Talk, nutrition, Sourcepoint, Therapeutic Touch, Healing Touch, HeartMath and many others that were not structured for formal certification. 

And I still went to the doctor. The doctor walked in the room, made a diagnosis, decided what was needed, and provided it.

The focus was on what the doctor thought, saw and deduced. I knew it was a one sided business, this standard medical disease model.  

December 2023 – Reflection on the Year

Thank you for being a part of this community.  Whether you click this email every month, every other month or just a couple of times a year, you always belong to our Energy Matrix.  All it takes is the intention and your system automatically engages with your blueprint for health. 

And since we all deviate from our healthy blueprint daily, it is profound self care to remain aware of how well designed you are to enjoy your life.  You deserve to feel calm and happy.  So that’s a little Christmas reflection and my wish for you this season.

October 2023 – Shame, Oh the Shame

Do you ever wonder where you went wrong?  When we are young and have visions of what we are capable of, it is the coming of age cycle of life. Nothing is wrong and anything is possible.  We don’t yet understand the routine troubles and discontents that will wind their way into our psyches in the coming decades.  Unless of course, we are taught as children that we are  “selfish” or “a disappointment” or “exhausting.”  Of course, shaming isn’t reserved for the young.  Today it continues to cut across all ages, genders and classes.  Just look at our politics in America. Shaming is an epidemic.

September 2023 – Make Good Choices

I adopted the admonition, “Make Good Choices” as a mom when my kids first started to embark out of the house without me.   How does one learn to make their choices “good”?  

 A cornerstone of the Body Talk System of energy medicine is the Cortices Technique that balances each Cortex in the Brain to allow for good communication within the Brain and out to the BodyMind.   The start of the technique is a balancing of the Left and Right Brains sometimes referred to as the Masculine and Feminine and other times as the Logical and Creative sides of the Brain.

August 2023 – Trees in Spring, Grasses in Summer, and Ragweed in Autumn

Pollen Problems. Researchers at Columbia University Irving Medical Center say that the past few allergy seasons in the US have been unusually severe, with record numbers of people seeking treatment for persistent runny nose, sneezing and itchy eyes.  If you have experienced hay fever for the first time recently or noticed your symptoms getting worse, you are not alone. So, why the uptick and what has energy medicine got to offer ?

June 2023 – HPV after Menopause

Research has shown that about one in four females between the ages of 14 and 59 in the United States have HPV – Human Papillomavirus.*  Previous reports put that number at between 25 and 50% of young women who are sexually active.  With repeat testing it appears that the virus clears within two years in a majority of these women. However, much like the herpes virus that can lay dormant for many years, it appears that HPV testing in postmenopausal women is detecting active HPV in noticeable numbers.

May 2023 – Super(achoo) Bloom

If you live in California, you cannot miss the massive blossom of desert wildflowers happening across the state. The Super Bloom has been making headlines as it travels from south to north, tracking with the warm spring weather. 

With the Super Bloom comes massive amounts of pollen. While that’s great for bees, it has been an ordeal for allergy sufferers. Most of these wildflowers remained dormant throughout the drought years. Now, it’s as if a beautiful allergy bomb was dropped on the state.

Allergies occur when the immune system mistakenly identifies pollen as a virus. The body’s immune system thinks a typically harmless substance, such as pollen, is harmful, according to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. The body reacts by producing antibodies that are on the lookout for the allergen. The antibodies also make chemicals, such as histamine, which cause allergy symptoms.
