Acupuncture is the use of ultra-fine sterile, disposable needles which are inserted at specific points of the body to precisely redirect the flow of qi energy. There are thousands of acupoints on the body, with over 360 being commonly used. Each has its own specific function. Depending on the desired effect, different techniques can be used to either stimulate, sedate, or regulate the flow of qi. A typical insertion can last from fifteen to forty minutes, sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the desired outcome. This sets the stage for the body to repair itself and maintain its own health.

The Alexander Technique is a psycho physical education technique that provides a clear, systematic approach to the underlying principles which govern all human movement. Lessons in the Alexander Technique relieve tension, rigidity, strain, and fatigue throughout the body. These disorders are replaced by grace, poise, confidence, and energy. Professional athletes like John McEnroe have used this 110+ year old technique to improve their game. In a lesson, you learn tools to realign the body (and mind) in order to release unnecessary tension and improve freedom of movement. In the process, you’ll relieve compression in your spine, counter gravity, and find yourself “higher” with a sense of expansion, lightness, and energy.

Lessons provide an education into the mechanics of the body, your movement patterns (one’s somatic experience of themselves) in your everyday life. Alexander Technique deals with kinesthetic perception, “the

sensations of position and movement, of heaviness and lightness, of tension and release, of effort and ease.” It’s like having an owner’s manual to your body.

An angel reading is when a spiritually based psychic medium intuitively connects a person with their Angels and/or the Archangels to help with issues they may be currently needing spiritual guidance with and healing from. The Angels are able to cover all areas of life such as money, career, life path, romance, and family/friend relationships. A reading may also consist of energy healing and etheric cord cutting that have been negatively attached to people and objects in their lives if necessary. All angel readings are based out of love as are the Angels and positive.

Ayurveda means “knowledge of life” and it is an ancient “science of living” that originated in India for balancing body, mind and spirit. The supreme emphasis of Ayurveda is prevention of disease through strengthening the digestive function, along with diet, exercise, breathing and seasonal cleansing and rejuvenation practices that are in alignment with the individual constitution you were born with. To remove toxic accumulations or to restore depleted tissues Ayurveda uses herbs, bodywork treatments with warm herbal oils followed by steaming or hot compresses. Ayurveda also features multiple specialized treatments including those for muscles and joints that have been injured or are weak, stiff, or painful.

JANE DEMIAN, L.Ac., M.A., R.N. (Acupuncturist/Herbalist)

An herbalist uses formulas comprised of substances such as plants, seeds, fruit, roots, shells, and stones which have energetic properties that resonate with different organs of the body. These ingredients are prescribed to the patient either in pill or powder form after reviewing the patient’s history, physical examination including checking and “reading” of the patient’s pulse, their tongue, abdominal assessment, palpation of meridians, skin color, eye color and assessment of their emotional status. Once the diagnosis is complete, a formula is created which is designed to treat specific organs as well as harmonize and balance the Qi (life energy) of the body.

Cold Laser therapy is a form of photonic light therapy that focuses on balancing cellular activity in the body. It comes out of the modern Western medical tradition and is rather cutting edge. The laser is a “cold laser” which means it doesn’t cut, unlike hot lasers currently used for surgery, which can cut through skin. The cold laser works by providing a specific light frequency that tunes in to each cell in the body and makes its biochemistry work better (i.e. skin cell, nerve cell, liver cell, etc.). As a result, it directly affects diseased, or injured tissue with light-speed accuracy and quickness, to heal a particular physical problem from the inside out. For example, a bacteria will create a particular infection within the body. Once this infection is determined, the laser can be set at a particular frequency, applied to the area experiencing the infection, and help in killing the bacteria. Or, immediately after surgery, the laser light can stimulate collagen cell growth, heal the area 50% to 75% faster and prevent unwanted scar tissue from forming. All in all, the laser creates healing within the body by restoring balance to the affected area.

Dowsing (radioestesia) is an ancient art form dating back at least 7000 years and is still used today in many cultures. It has enjoyed a resurgence for anything from finding unmarked graves to diagnosing illness, and identifying harmful energies within a home. The tools used for dowsing can be organic, like the wooden sticks made of hazelnut or other trees, or metal rods. Sometimes dowsing rods can also be used for finding things such as water underground or mineral deposits, archaeological excavations, and detecting geopathic stress zones. It has even been used to identify plastic mines by the military. Besides dowsing rods, pendulum is widely used, especially in the office /home environment for diagnostic and other purposes.

Begin to live your dreams. Improve coping and communication skills. Improve relationships…with yourself and others. Make the life changes you want.

Dynamic Psychotherapy is a term first used by Harry Stack Sullivan, a great psychoanalyst in the early 1900s who was one of the first to treat people who had psychological problems with respect and equality. He stated, “We are all more simply human than otherwise.” It is with this philosophy that I treat each person who comes to me for help. This therapy is based on equality between myself as the therapist and you as the client. In this process of respect and active working together a great deal of growth can happen. There many possibilities in therapeutic growth with your willingness and my experience.

Steve Maher

Steve discovered this most human phenomenon from a simple vision while meditating 10 years ago. He discovered that when two human beings hold one another for a prolonged period of time, a sense of ever-deepening comfort washes over them, obviously referencing the physicalized bond between infants and their mothers during the early months after birth. From that state of safety, participants go on an experiential journey.(what Steve refers to as a “magic carpet ride”). Withheld feelings related to daily stress, loss, trauma, unexpressed love etc. surface naturally and show themselves in their fullness. The two hour sessions (90 minutes of which is continuous holding) allow time for the full arc of experience to complete, leaving participants feeling profoundly relaxed, cleansed and energized. It is a journey of relaxation, personal and sometimes spiritual growth.

EFT stands for Emotional Freedom Technique. This technique works by manually “tapping” on acupuncture energy points on your body – primarily on your face and upper torso. The idea is to clear underlying negative belief patterns while engaging your physical body through taping, verbalization, and eye movements. This engages your emotional, mental, and physical self and creates change for the user on each level of awareness.

Equine Assisted Learning

Rachel Pray

Equine Assisted Learning and Equine Assisted Psychotherapy share the essential element of experiential, accelerated learning and personal growth. Imagine accomplishing more in a few sessions than could be achieved in months of traditional therapy or life coaching!

Equine Assisted Learning, or EAL, is groundwork-centered, interactive learning in the dynamic presence of horses. Unlike horseback riding instruction or therapeutic riding, EAL takes place on the ground, and emphasizes the non-verbal relationship between horse and human. Participants are encouraged to closely observe and interact with the horse, in order to understand and challenge their own assumptions and habits. EAL can improve self-confidence and social skills, help us to become congruent in mind and body, and shed light on our unconscious feelings and behaviors. Equine Assisted Learning can unblock creativity, non-threateningly reveal the key to resolving crisis in our lives and relationships, and help to illuminate the path forward. EAL sessions are facilitated by an Equine Specialist and designed, with the client, in a collaborative, individualized process.

Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, or EAP, is a nationally recognized field that complements and accelerates traditional mental health counseling. Because of its intensity and effectiveness, EAP is a short-term approach, and can be a wonderful addition or alternative to traditional talk therapy. EAP is incredibly effective for identifying sources of trauma, and for increasing the accuracy of assessments and the focus of treatment plans. Perhaps most remarkable is the potential to restore a client’s sense of emotional balance and congruency in relatively few sessions. Equine Assisted Psychotherapy can be used as a powerful tool for treatment of attention deficit disorder, substance abuse issues, eating disorders, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, and low self-esteem. Interacting with horses — dynamic and inspiring living beings — adds metaphoric and reflective strength to conventional therapy, and creates a non-threatening environment for revealing and accepting the authentic self.

Rachel Pray is a Certified Equine Specialist with over thirty years of horse experience. She has trained with Greg Kersten (OK Corral), Paul Striberry (Conscious Riding), Susannah Kellogg (Natural Horsemanship), and many others. Rachel has a B.A. in Environmental Studies, and an M.A. in English/Creative Writing. She’s worked as an Audubon Society Naturalist, a Literacy and Language Arts Tutor, Health Clinic Advocate, Community Radio Producer and co-host, and Women’s Self-Defense instructor. Rachel is a published poet and photographer, a mother, Buddhist meditation practitioner, women’s and gay & lesbian rights activist, and life-long feminist.

Feng Shui is the ancient Chinese art of “invisible architecture”. It is based on the belief that all things have an energy/vibrational frequency and that these frequencies affect us in our environments. Colors, textures, and objects effect the flow of energy through a home, office, or garden and Feng Shui gives us a practical way to harness that energy to create a harmonious and healthy life.

Herbal Medicine & Flower Essence Therapy

Joanne Cohen

Herbal Medicine is a system of healing that has been used since the beginning of time. What is greater than using the plants that grow in our own environment to help us heal; the plants that need us just as we need them? Botanical remedies treat both chronic and acute issues while bringing more natural vitality to the entire system. Herbs are generally ingested through a tea, capsule, tincture, or added to your foods. All herbal recommendations and formulas are based on an individual’s unique physical and emotional health.

Flower Essence Therapy uses the vibration or the energy of a flower to bring forward profound healing. Throughout our lives we experience woundings which we interpret and then form the foundation upon which we relate in the world. Flower Essences facilitate these imprints to come forward so that we may become even more deeply aware of our own limiting patterns and beliefs and begin to heal ourselves. This process ultimately allows us to be free and live as Our True Self rather than in a melting pot of pains from the past.

Both of these modalities work on babies, children, men, women and animals. Their range of healing in the emotional and physical levels is vast and varied and most importantly, they offer profound and deep healing!

The Art of Exercising and Beyond®

Susan Lynn Bragg

A joy to execute, the GYROTONIC EXPANSION SYSTEM® is a cutting-edge exercise system made up of beautiful spiraling movements that gently release restrictions in the body while simultaneously increasing strength and connecting you to your core. The design of the specialized equipment promotes freedom of motion, allowing you to transcend the limits of weight bearing positions with no impact on the joints, much like exercising in water. At the same time, you will be developing the internal strength necessary for creating a healthy, toned, injury-free body.

The system was created by Juliu Horvath, a former dancer of Romanian descent, whose personal struggles and chronic injuries inspired him to create a system where fluidity and ease are key.

“ The ultimate aim is to be at home in one’s body, experience greater freedom of movement, to feel unrestricted and uninhibited, to be free from pain, to be one with the nature of oneself, and to experience exercise as a creative and delightful experience”

Hatha/Vinyasa Flow Yoga is quite simply linking breath with movement. It is meant to stretch and strengthen muscles while balancing and calming the mind. Traditional yoga poses are used with breath and intention being the foundations of the practice. It is meant to stretch and strengthen muscles while balancing and calming the mind. It is based in the tradition of Ashtanga which, in sanskrit, means ‘eight limbs’ which These are the steps and disciplines that one follows in order to purify mind and body. The pace can be fast or slow depending on the needs of the student.

Proper physical alignment and strengthening of the body are bi-products of a yoga practice. These aid the body in healing itself and help the body recover from injury. The habitual practice of yoga helps also brings about another bi-product that is invaluable, relaxation. It helps to transform the individual by de-stressing both the mind and body and build a personal sense of spirituality thus allowing the practitioner to live at peak health and be at peace on the inside and out.

Athena Carillo, MA, MFT

Holistic Psychotherapy uses the tenets and practices of psychotherapy, while also giving time and space to dialogue with our mind-body-spirit. During a Holistic Psychotherapy session, clients sit on a couch or lie on a massage table; they talk with the practitioner and are guided through exercises of breathing and visualization as indicated. Holistic Psychotherapy acknowledges and works from the understanding that we are beings consisting of mind-body-spirit. These aspects of us are inextricably linked, influencing one another, and functioning all at the same time with and without our awareness. We may focus on addressing one aspect of ourselves knowing we are affecting the whole. For example, in exploring physical tension, i.e., chronic back pain, we may release emotional energy held in the body and experience greater insight and consciousness. As a way of surviving overwhelming experiences or trauma, we compartmentalize thoughts and feelings in the mind-body-spirit and experiences go unconscious. This may be helpful in the moment, but when we do not allow these experiences to move through us, we become defended physically and emotionally cut off from ourselves; we live a little less in the world. This can cause anxiety, depression, pain, low self-esteem and addictive patterns. Holistic Psychotherapy provides the opportunity for clients to address these issues and experience greater knowing of themselves, the meaning of their lives, as well as, transformation and healing.

Limbic Stress Assessment (LSA)

Vinayak

Limbic Stress Assessment Grew out of earlier work done by a German doctor named Reinhold Voll. Later, Dr. Vaughn Cook in using Dr. Volls work, discovered that by administering a low voltage (safe) electrical current to the body he could then read the energetic fields of the body.

This current is administered through a unique USB hand cradle that delivers a small electrical current into the body and then reads the energetic fields within the body as the client relaxes with their hand on this device. By reading the flow of energy through the body, or lack of flow within the body, which we call resistance, energetic blocks, or stressors, we are able to see the weaknesses within the body system. Once a weakness is discovered suggestions are made to alleviate them. All natural products are the basis of the remedies used in this work.

For example, if a weakness is discovered then various remedies are tested through the use of the LSA machine and the best remedies are recommended.

NAET (Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique)

Dr. Ravinder Singh

Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Techniques, also known as NAET®, is a non-invasive, drug free, and natural solution to eliminating allergies of all types and intensities. NAET uses a blend of selective energy balancing, testing, and treatment procedures from acupuncture/acupressure, allopathy, chiropractic, nutritional, and kinesiological disciplines of medicine.

One allergen is treated at a time. If you are not severely immune deficient, you may need just one treatment to desensitize one allergen. A person with mild to moderate amount of allergies may take about 15-20 office visits to desensitize 15-20 food and environmental allergens. Basic essential nutrients are treated during the first few visits. Chemicals, environmental allergens, vaccinations, immunizations, etc. are treated after completing about ten basic essential nutrients.

NAET® can successfully eliminate adverse reactions to egg, milk, peanuts, penicillin, aspirin, mushrooms, shellfish, latex, grass, ragweed, flowers, perfume, animal dander, animal epithelial, make-up, chemicals, cigarette smoke, pathogens, heat, cold, other environmental agents. It may take several office visits to desensitize a severe allergen.

NAET® was discovered by Dr. Devi S. Nambudripad in November of 1983.

Neurofeedback (NFB), also called neurotherapy, neurobiofeedback or EEG biofeedback (EEGBF) is a therapy technique that presents the user with real time feedback on brainwave activity, as measured by sensors on the scalp, typically in the form of a video display, sound or vibration. The aim is to provide real-time information to the Central Nervous System (CNS) as to its current activity.

Neurofeedback can work with children and adults with ADD/ADHD. It can also be an effective treatment for improving your focus, attention, and memory as well as help to heal more serious issues such as insomnia, headaches, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and the after effects of strokes and accidents. Neurofeedback has a good success rate and has enabled many people to go back to completely normal lives after healing themselves using the tools that it provides.

Dr. McGill offers a no cost consultation, on the phone or in person, to determine if this therapy can help you.

Holistic Health & Nutrition counseling integrates the healing modalities; from the ancient traditions of Ayurveda, Macrobiotics and Chinese Medicine, to the most current concepts like raw foods, detoxification, cleanses, juicing, low-carb lifestyle, ancestral foods, hormonal support, vegetarian vs. animal protein, and glycemic load.

The food on your plate has a crucial affect on your life: “you are what you eat”. There is no perfect way of eating that works for everybody. Our philosophy is centered on the individual; with the understanding that one person’s food is another’s poison.

Everything is food. Holistic Nutrition helps people find authentic nutrition or what is called primary food. Primary food can be anything form finding joy at your work, love in your relationships, a playful exercise routine, or spiritual solitude – this is primary food.

Holistic Nutrition is not about calorie counting, strict diet plans, more self-discipline or willpower. It is about helping people to discover what nourishes them, what feeds them and ultimately what makes their life extraordinary.

Together, the Holistic Nutrition counselor and client customize a plan to upgrade the client’s nutrition and other aspects of their life, including career, relationships, physical activity and spirituality through cooking classes, health food store tours, books, and DVDs. During this period, clients develop a deep understanding of the foods and lifestyle that work best for them, and implement lasting changes that improve their energy, balance and health for the rest of their lives.

The term “Prolotherapy” is short for “proliferation therapy.”

Proliferation, of course, means “rapid production.” What Prolotherapy rapidly and naturally stimulates is the production of collagen and cartilage. Collagen is a naturally occurring structural protein in the body that is a necessary element for the formation of connective tissue—the tissues that hold our skeletal infrastructure together. These tissues include cartilage, tendons, ligaments, muscle, and muscle fascia, and joint capsular tissue.

Prolotherapy stimulates collagen growth through a series of injections, not of collagen, but of mild chemical or natural irritants such as dextrose. Yes sugar water. This stimulates the immune system’s healing mechanism to produce collagen naturally. This process rejuvenates the soft tissue and can heal headaches, neck and back pain, tears in the rotator cuff of the shoulder, meniscal tears in the knee, elbow, wrist, and hand pain, arthritis, hip pain, knee pain, ankle pain, and foot and toe pain.

Somatic Experiencing (SE) is a short-term, naturalistic approach, developed by Dr. Peter Levine, to renegotiate and heal both shock and developmental trauma.

Stress and trauma occur in the body, not in the event, and they are the body’s reactions to “threatening experiences.” The fight/flight/freeze response, otherwise known as ‘instincts’, is how we are hard-wired for survival.

The word “trauma,” unfortunately, overshadows the intricacies and insidiousness of the long-term affects of threat, whether said threat were real or perceived. The easy way to differentiate stress from trauma is that any event is considered traumatic when the symptoms of arousal (reaction) don’t pass, even after the threat has passed.

Sometimes these unresolved physiological events can remain dormant in the body for years before getting triggered again. SE employs the awareness of body sensation to safely and gradually allow the autonomic nervous system to discharge previously truncated survival energy trapped in the body.

The results of this body / mind therapy include relief from anxiety, habits and addictions, patterns and cycles of self-sabotage, and dissociative behaviors. It brings on a sense of reawakening and access to instincts which illicits feelings of groundedness, centeredness, boundaries, empowerment, being “in the moment”, safety and joyfulness.

Structural Integration (Rolfing)

Lynn Cohen

Structural Integration (also known as “Rolfing”®) is what Ida P. Rolf, Ph. D., called her system of manual therapy designed to balance and align the body in gravity. Adaptations to gravity within the muscular-skeletal system usually result in pain, and can look like flat feet, rounded shoulders, a hunched back…“bad posture”….and pain! Structural Integration strives to align and balance the body’s segments (ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, neck) until the entire system is a smoothly functioning coordinated whole.

The reason we can’t simply “stand up straight” to correct these imbalances is because they are reinforced by fascia, whose job it is to support the positions of muscle and bones. But, what goes down can come up, and fascia can be eased back to a pliable state, allowing muscles and bones to return to their structurally appropriate positions.

An aligned body moves with greater ease. It becomes more flexible and coordinated. It requires less energy to function. Good posture is effortless. Breathing is easier. Athletic performance improves. Many people feel younger and look thinner. Structural Integration is known to substantially reduce pain and improve posture.

I hope that everyone has enjoyed their week, and are now ready for a new one and can now look back to see what they ACCOMPLISHED. We would like to speak with you about “TRY”. How many times do you use this word in relation to something you wish to accomplish??? One often times expresses that they have tried so hard to close a deal, or have tried so hard to come visit Aunt Grace, or tried to read a particular book. These are only examples, however, we are sure that you understand the concept of that which we speak of.

We ask that you perform a little experiment. Take an object, any object, like a salt shaker, a crystal or anything at all big or small and TRY to move it from one spot to another. Our point should now be understood as either you moved the object or you did not. So if one says that they tried to move the object, but it did not move than one can only come to the conclusion that the object was not moved. This does not mean however that an ATTEMPT was not made, only that there was another reason as to why the object was rendered immovable.

Trying gives the impression that one is actually attempting to do something. We shall explain this further. When one sets out to accomplish a goal, to whatever extent that is great or small than one creates the thought, puts forth the intention, then takes the action to create ones desired outcome. Now if one does all of these thing and the desired outcome does not manifest, than it is not that the person TRIED, but did not succeed, but actually took the action to accomplish ones goal, however there were circumstances that for what ever reason did not provide the right timing, environment, or contact to accomplish this task at this particular time. If this is the case than you IN DEED made the effort or attempted the action to effect a particular outcome and therefore you took action, gave it your best effort and for whatever the reason were unsuccessful in accomplishing that particular task or goal. Now ask yourself “what have I learned from this, how can I improve upon the technique I used in this process and is this really something I want to pursue at all????”

Our point with all of this being is that without ACTION than all one is doing is THINKING about what they would like to do, but are afraid to do it so therefor they may make attempts, without any real intention to effect the outcome.

With many blessings

Mother’s Day… We are about the celebrate Mother’s Day, a day in which MOTHER is celebrated. One usually thinks of the woman who brought you into the world, however we would like to celebrate all that represents MOTHER. Mother Earth and Mother Nature are magnificent, because without them we would not exist. They provide us with our daily nourishment and the very foundation that supports us. There has been much discussion over time as to how the children of Mother Earth and Mother Nature have cared for them. If every child on the earth would take just a moment to do something wonderful for them to show their appreciation, respect and love then they would know that all their children really do care.

Whether you are a MOM to your child, your pet, a loved one or a friend we wish for you a day filled with love, happiness, many blessings and a BIG THANK YOU for being nurturing, loving, caring and supportive to all those that you have mothered.

HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY

Sharing… Some Divine Wisdom

Now that you all have hopefully recharged your energy with the New Moon strap on your seatbelt as we are about to have yet another Mercury Retrograde. Mercury rules communications, electronics and a few other things and Retrograde means that the planet is moving backward. My knowledge of astrology is very limited. I am a great fan of the science, but dangerous if called upon to share any real wisdom. I will leave any in-depth discussion of Astrology to those that study the stars and planets and stay with the Divine Wisdom I receive from ”The Others” the spirit guides with whom I channel.

I bring up the Retrograde because it often times stirs up the most annoying experiences… FRUSTRATION being one of many. Being frustrated often times creates resistance and then we all know what happens then… NOT MUCH! So how you ask does one keep from being frustrated and therefore able to stay in the flow of desire and outcome. We do have a few suggestions. When something is not working as it should, or as you want it to then we would suggest that you step back form it for just a moment and look at it. Are you trying to put a square peg in a round hole?? Is there a part missing that needs to be there?? Or does the darn thing just not work! If one can view any situation with the mind set that there is ALWAYS a solution then one can spend their time and energy focusing on that rather than being frustrated, which can only lead to anger, sadness or any number of situations that are NOT in your highest good or for that matter helping you to accomplish your goal or the task that you set out to do.

What then is the SOLUTION you ask…keep in mind that there is always a solution and we ALWAYS have CHOICE! One may not always like the choices they have, but they are choices none the less and what ever choice we make will lead us to something better. Sometimes the solution is to just walk away because the problem is not going to get fixed, the other person isn’t really interested in making any changes. Somehow I don’t think that you are prepared or willing to start taking medication to control the high blood pressure that you are giving yourself by being so upset at a situation that is only going to continue to frustrate you, and then it becomes that proverbial hamster wheel. Wow, that was a mouth full and a run on sentence too. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it or want it… The angels are always ready, willing and excited to help you, but you need to ask!!!

So, what we ask of you to do this week is to really think about the word FRUSTRATION. Is it living with you in your house? If so, maybe it is time to get a new roommate…

Frustration is a common emotional response to opposition. Related to anger and disappointment, it arises from the perceived resistance to the fulfillment of individual will. The greater the obstruction, and the greater the will, the more the frustration is likely to be. Causes of frustration may be internal or external. In people, internal frustration may arise from challenges in fulfilling personal goals and desires, instinctual drives and needs, or dealing with perceived deficiencies, such as a lack of confidence or fear of social situations. Conflict can also be an internal source of frustration; when one has competing goals that interfere with one another, it can create cognitive dissonance. External causes of frustration involve conditions outside an individual, such as a blocked road or a difficult task. While coping with frustration, some individuals may engage in passive-aggressive behavior, making it difficult to identify the original cause(s) of their frustration, as the responses are indirect.

We wish you love, light and a wonderful week - Divine Wisdom

Q. Hi Terri!
Congrats on your blog – this is great

Question…why is the world suffering from SO MANY disasters. Specifically, earthquakes. There seems to be a 7-pointer every month now. I’m very concerned…the devastation and loss are unbearable and I haven’t even been directly affected. It’s heartbreaking watching the news.

A. Annette,

Thank you so much I am so glad that you are enjoying it. I am sorry for the late response to your question.

How wonderful that your heart reaches out to the world and to those that you have no direct connection to. The earth moves as do the other planets and just as our consciousness is changing and evolving so is the earth. There is both a physical component and an energetic one. We are in a time where TRUTH is being exposed on ALL levels. The disaster in Haiti exposed the truth of a corrupt government that did not choose to build a solid foundation for its people and therefore when the earth moved the physical structures where unable to withhold the pressure as the foundation that they were built on was unstable. This is a perfect analogy of life itself. If one does not build a solid foundation in their lives then they will have a difficult time sustaining all the movement that occurs around them.

Yes it is heartbreaking to see anyone suffer, however it also provides people the opportunity to step up and put themselves aside for even just a moment to provide for another. Make sure that you are prepared, practice being in faith and not fear!

As we begin this week we do so with a New Moon which means New Beginnings. Every month we are provided the opportunity to bring forth our intentions for what we desire and what we need to help us in facilitating this. Take a moment and really ponder what it is that brings you JOY, PEACE, FULFILLMENT and a sense of ACCOMPLISHMENT. Sometimes we forget to ask for the help that we need or for that matter to even have a sense of our own knowingness that we can. We are in a time of great change and being shaken to the very core of who we are, looking at what our purpose is and how we achieve what that is once we discover it.

Take a moment and write down 3 intentions. As an example: I have financial freedom – Now take a moment and think about what this means to you and see what that looks like, touch what that feels like, listen to the sound of it and enjoy the sweet smell of it.

Life brings us opportunity to learn, grow and evolve, so take one step every day to do just that…

We wish you love, light and a wonderful week.

I would like to wish all of you a very happy Passover and Easter!

Isn’t it interesting that two such important holidays come together to celebrate such historic and meaningful experiences for Christians as well as Jews. At holidays like this it is important to take a moment and reflect on who you are and what you HAVE accomplished and to be grateful.

Life for many over this past year has been quite a challenge and we applaud all of you for holding tight to the ranes and making it through the storm. You are being shaken to your core so that you can be better prepared for a higher consciousness and a greater awareness. We wish for all of you that the reflection that these holidays bring and even for those of you who don’t celebrate either of these holidays that: When your DESIRE becomes GREATER than your RESISTANCE… then the doors will open wide and all that you DESIRE will come forth.

We send you many blessings, love and light

Q. Hi Terri,

I’m wondering if my girlfriend Carina will get into UCLA Law school or NYU Law school this year?

thanks,
max

A. Max,

I must tell you that when I focus on each of these schools I believe that she may be accepted into both of them. They are both excellent choices, but truly it is a completely different dynamic and like two completely different worlds between them. I sense that your fear is that if she chooses NYU than this will change the dynamic of your relationship. The first year of law school will test the best of any relationship whether you are living together or living cross country. The real question to ask is what is her intention??? If she had clear choice would she pick NYU??? Or stay in Los Angeles so that she can keep the relationship in tack and still go to law school?? The answer lies not so much in the flip of the coin, but in her intention and what she really wants to manifest for herself!

________________________________________

Q. Hi Terri,

I just resigned from my job and my last day is tomorrow. I’m extremely excited about the future. Just curious as to what you sense is my next move.

Wilda

A. Dear Wilda,

Transition when embraced is a wonderful experience. To be proactive in ones journey will bring great rewards, because you are already in the mind set of taking action. I have a sense of profound freedom for you. You have had an idea in your mind for a long time, but too often dismissed it. It is time now for you to bring that idea to the forefront and be very clear of your intention and what this looks like and how you see this evolving. You should be excited as you have worked hard to let go of certain beliefs that have in the past held you back. Your next move… well, take ten steps forward and none back… Soar like an eagle, spread your wings and follow your dreams and your heart.

Q. Hi Terri,
I’ve lost some major clients to the economy and as a result my savings is slowly dwindling away in support of keeping in my passion. I love what I do and have been successfully and stably doing it for close to a decade. But now I am fighting hard to stay in my industry, following my gut and intuition, but there are no open doors yet.
I’m also trying to remain patient and positive, but the worry is starting to keep me up at nights and it’s stripping away at the good energy I feel I have left. I have the support of friends and loved ones but my energy is tapped out. I’m working now from dawn to dusk for peanuts to keep a float and there simply isn’t any energy for me to keep recycling back into myself or continued pursuit in my field. I’m exhausted~Mary

A. Marynewro,

Fear blocks our faith which stops the flow of that which we desire. Yes these have been very stressful times and fear unfortunately can become very paralyzing. Transition and adjustment are often times necessary at different times in our lives. Think about a cake that you have made the same way for several years, the cake is delicious and people love it, but it is time to add a new twist to your great recipe and get people excited all over again because you added a new ingredient to bring it up to date…
Your intuition will never lead you in the wrong direction. It is only when you don’t really listen to it that you will find yourself taking the wrong turn.
Your exhaustion is more about the stress and fear which will drain you of your energy which results in your inability to really get a clear picture of what you need to do…
Think through what you are doing, what you have done, and how you can add that new ingredient to your business plan so as to attract new clients. Just maybe it is time for some change…

Q. Hi Terri,

I am writing to ask you if you think I truly have a good chance of finally healing my tailbone/sacrum problem soon? I have been working on it for 2 1/2 years now and get very frustrated that I am still not able to sit comfortably, without pain nor truly sit well without a u-shaped pillow. Even not sitting, I feel an incredible tightness and I get shooting pains as well. I feel like someone shoved a plunger up my behind and that there is always something in there-like a rock! My tailbone is literally tucked underneath and forked over to the right. I have read many healing books, done many forms of therapy-what I have been able to pay for out of pocket. Anyway, there are moments, since this length of time (though time is elusive) for it to get better seems like a long time-due to the physical pain-when I lie awake at night, wondering if I will ever be able to sit without pain and not feel like there is something stuck up my butt! I am wondering if my tailbone will get untucked and stay untucked!!

Any thoughts you may have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A. Karen,

Often times when we experience physical pain it is as a result of emotional distress. You know the term “pain in the ass”, well it seems as though you have manifested this in your body. Getting physical relief is only one aspect of your healing. It would be suggested that you really look deep into your emotional state and childhood traumas to take a look at what lead you to this most painful position.

I have provided for you some information about the first Chakra and a website to visit, both of which may provide you with some further insight and information. Unfortunately there is no easy answer as the condition you are in has many layers. Focus green light around your lower back and imagine yourself stepping into a bathtub with the most magnificent large green emerald. As the water fills the tub the emerald will melt into the water creating and surrounding you with the most magnificent green healing energy. Soak in this imaginary bath for as long as you can and know that when you step out of the tub you will feel the exhilaration of the healing energy.

One must find the cause or the source of ones problem so that one is not in denial of the very experience that created the energy that blocks you.

http://www.findyourfate.com/astrology/yoga/sciatica-pain.htm

Chakra One: Muladhara
Earth, Physical identity, oriented to self-preservation
Located at the base of the spine, this chakra forms our foundation. It represents the element earth, and is therefore related to our survival instincts, and to our sense of grounding and connection to our bodies and the physical plane. Ideally this chakra brings us health, prosperity, security, and dynamic presence.

Q. I would love some feedback on the who, what, when, how regarding finding my compatable soul mate…many thanks!

Lori

A. Lori,

How glorious it is when one finds one’s soul mate, but even grander yet when one can find one’s twin flame. One must first be so clear about who they are and what they want for themselves before venturing out to find the other half of one’s self. It is important that we really look at all the aspects of ourselves first and to clean house so to speak… Often times when one is looking for a mate, they end up re-creating aspects that are familiar which may not always be the best qualities or really what we want.
In your minds eye put a blank canvas on an easel and pull out your paint brush and paints. As you look at the blank canvas imagine the picture of who you want, what they look like and all the attributes that bring forth the best parts of yourself and supports who you want to be.
When you are totally clear about who you are and what you want, cleaned out your closets so to speak then you can go about putting forth your intention to bring to you the person that can then be someone that both of you can mutually support in mind, body and spirit.
Happiness does not need to allude you… You just need to be aware of what that means and then put forth your intention to create it.

Q. Hey Terri – I’m buying a new house and it’s an absolute dump. It has incredible potential but I’m a bit panicked as it’s going to cost a lot to fix up – new kitchen, new bathroom, new roof, new floors, etc. I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to make it work but it feels like the right thing to do. What do your guides have to say?
Thanks,
PB

A. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION… We presume that this purchase was made as an investment property that you wish to flip. We would like to suggest that you might get creative in how you consider doing the repairs and fixing up the property. With all of the “Reality Shows” that exist you might want to look into someone or something that would be excited about having an opportunity to put their mark on something that is in desperate need of love, care and a facelift.
We feel that this house project is something that will provide work and benefit to others in a way that you had not anticipated. An Art Director could have some fun with this too. We get a sense that this house came to you for a reason, some of which are not clear for you at this time.
Yes we do feel that this will turn out to be as you say “the right thing to do”. Put forth your intention, see the picture of what you want and then hold tight to your desire to manifest it.

Q. Hello, Terri!

Would like to know if you have any insight into my romantic life. I’ve been intensely exploring/revisiting my approach to intimacy and relationships and would appreciate any input you might have. Thank you so much!

Anne

A. Anne,

You must be willing to face your fear of intimacy head on. When one experiences pain, disappointment, or hurt then one has a tendency to close off or in some cases shut down. One must first be in relationship with ones self, otherwise how is someone else to know what we want or need if we ourselves cannot identify what that is. So often one looks outside themselves for validation, and somehow it never seems to be enough or there is a lack of trust that they are being sincere. When one can become secure within themselves, and to be able to look in the mirror and send love back to the image they are seeing then one will be ready to bring an outside relationship to themselves.

Q. Hi Terry, I just moved back to my country(Italy) after I lived for 9 years in London. The main reason of my transfer is because my parents are getting older and will retire in a couple of months. As they need my help to move out I have to be here for at least 3 months, but I also have a stress to get a job and a possible accomodation after they will move out. I dont really know if I want to stay here as I feel I dont belong here anymore. Things are completely different from where I used to live and finding very difficult to adapt. My real desire is to move to LA where my best friend lives but it seems almost impossible to get a permanent visa unless I win the lottery. I am so confused and was wondering if you could give some advice on what to do. Thank you so much for your help,all the best,
R.xxx

A. There is always a reason why things happen and for you coming back to Italy is providing you with an opportunity to put closure to some aspect or aspects of your life that need to be addressed and then from that point you will be able to more clearly make a choice about what to do once you have accomplished your initial purpose in returning. What is your desire, passion and CLEAR intention in wanting to move to Los Angeles? Your stress in finding work in Italy is there because your intention to be there is only temporary. We feel that you struggle with the issue of your parents as they indeed are getting older and you feel torn to be there with and for them, however you also have a need to make a clear break which is why you left in the first place. If your intent is to come to Los Angeles then you must make a plan, write it down and really focus on the picture of what this looks like and then ask your guides and angels for the help you need to clear your path so that you can achieve this goal. Be willing to really look at your past and face it head on so that you can move forward carrying only that which you need in your suitcase.

________________________________________

Q. Hello Terri,
I would love to know any thing you see that might help me better navigate my relationship with my boyfriend. It’s been 8 months and I’m experiencing some frustration. I’d be grateful for any words of wisdom. Thanks!

A. Emily,
Relationships are usually wonderful at the beginning. The true test of a relationship is when you have had the experience and maturity to weather all kinds of storms and still find yourselves holding on to one another in the middle of the boat…
This is a wonderful opportunity to really take a look at what is frustrating you. Then take a look at yourself and ask yourself, what part of ME is HE representing as a mirror reflection of some part of myself? You see we often times bring people into our lives so that we can really take a look at some aspect of ourselves that we most need to look at. We can either make a CHOICE to reject or resist that which we see or we can CHOOSE to be proactive and desire to make a change.

________________________________________

Q. Would love to hear from you. At a real turning point in my life,and wondering which path to take.

A. Michael,

Which path is the one that will give you the greatest sense of self? It is time to please yourself and to be willing to take some risk in order to find what truly resinates with your soul. It is not for us to tell you to take the right fork or the left as this is only a choice you can make. What we do suggest is that you be true to your passion regardless of what others may think or say. Put forth your intention and vision of what you desire and then trust that you CAN manifest the outcome that you desire.

________________________________________

Q. I am waiting to hear about a project which could bring me creative opportunity and financial remuneration. In the past eight months, almost every opportunity to work with clients (as a writer and story editor) has not come through and a job prospect that seemed promising fell through. I am praying to bring more money into my life and am asking what you see in this area. Thank you.

A. Sara,
Your resistance seems greater than your desire… you may be scratching your head saying what does this possibly mean. The question is what is blocking your desired outcome? The money will come once you are really able to grab hold of believing enough in your talent and ability and that you are worthy of being paid for your creative talents. Believe in yourself without question and all others will have no other choice but to believe in you too.

________________________________________

Q. Hi Terri,

Would be interested in getting any insight you might have on one aspect of my life at the moment. I recently made a major home purchase and moved into a new neighborhood. It all feels wrong. I’m tempted to turn around, sell, and move to another area that would fit my lifestyle, but a voice (mine, and those of others) all say that this is just the pain of transition. I’m having a tough time figuring out what’s right. Would love a read on this. Thank you so much.

A. Cheryl,

We ask of you this question… What led you to this particular home and location in the first place? What is scary for you is change and stepping out from what is familiar to you. It is important to really take a look at your REACTION to this situation and examine how you came to make this choice and why you now feel so unsettled with the choice you made. What stands out most to us is not so much the new house you bought, but that transition is painful… Take a walk through your new neighborhood and look to find something that feels right and then take a really deep breath and know that you have taken a huge step forward to create for yourself something new and different. Transition is change, but does not need to be painful.

Spiritual Psychology deals with human experiences at the soul level. Terri will help you find your purpose in life and how to achieve it. You will learn how to make life-altering decisions, which will enable you to reach your potential by listening to your inner guidance.

Thetahealing™ is a process of accessing the Theta brainwave in order to connect with the creative force and communicate with the cells in your body to create healing.

Healing can be on the emotional level by changing certain core belief programs which are sabotaging your life or your health, or healing may be mostly physical by communicating directly with the cells of the body.

The Theta Brainwave is typically generated when we are asleep dreaming or under deep hypnosis. It is this frequency that cells talk to other cells in the body and this allows us to communicate with our body without interference. It is the interference that causes ‘dis-ease’ in the body. We have the inherent right to happiness and perfect health. This process allows us to work with the co-creative part of God that is within all of us to create happiness in our lives and perfect health.

Whole Body Cellular Detoxification – This is also another cutting-edge Western medical practice called ionic cellular cleansing, that pulls toxins out of the body through the pores in the soles of your feet. The feet have the largest pores in the body. By soaking them in warm water, the pores open and a simple physio-chemical ionic exchange occurs where toxins are pulled from the body into the water, like iron filings to a magnet. It’s amazing to see the water change from clean and clear to blackish and dirty, in less than 25 minutes!

The Yuen Method of Chinese Energetics is a powerful energetic healing technique. Developed by Shaolin Kung Fu Grandmaster Dr. Kam Yuen, DC. It blends ancient principles with advanced energetics or energy work on the quantum level. The Yuen Method instantly shifts weak or blocked energy into normal flowing energy. Any issue or problem can be improved, by correcting its energetic component – whether it’s physical pain, illness, negative emotions, depression, relationship problems, self-sabotage, financial blockage, or feng shui issues. Many people report immediate results. The Yuen Method is easy to learn and apply. No prior experience is necessary. It is not a meditation technique or a belief system – it is a set of energetic tools that anyone can use.

Ecstatic Embrace

Steve Maher

Steve discovered this most human phenomenon from a simple vision while meditating 10 years ago. He discovered that when two human beings hold one another for a prolonged period of time, a sense of ever-deepening comfort washes over them, obviously referencing the physicalized bond between infants and their mothers during the early months after birth. From that state of safety, participants go on an experiential journey.(what Steve refers to as a “magic carpet ride”). Withheld feelings related to daily stress, loss, trauma, unexpressed love etc. surface naturally and show themselves in their fullness. The two hour sessions (90 minutes of which is continuous holding) allow time for the full arc of experience to complete, leaving participants feeling profoundly relaxed, cleansed and energized. It is a journey of relaxation, personal and sometimes spiritual growth.
