The Path of Shamanism
By: Shaman Maggie Wahls    Monday, May 21, 2012
Conditions: Spiritual, Emotional, Mental and Physical maladies
The Path of Traditional Shamanism The path of Traditional Shamanism is not for those who simply wish to be psychic and channel spirits. The path of Traditional Shamanism will blind those who value their egos, destroy those who are faint of heart, and taint the souls of those who learn these tools and skills for selfish gain. So know this: everyone who takes up a walk on this path will not ever be able to turn back. Once wisdom is unfolded it changes your life forever. Once you step on this path you either ascend or descend. Only a person who takes himself seriously can control himself. This ...Read More

Conditions: Alzheimers. Anxiety, Cardiovascular Disease, Depression, Diabetes, Immune Dysfunction, Metabolic Dysfunction, Skin Conditions, Sleep Deprivation, Stress, Obesity, Beauty and Health for Women
Solution for Insomnia by Lorraine Mignault For many, women in particular, sleepless nights are a growing concern. In fact, women are more than twice as likely to have problems of insomnia. Targeting a natural therapy option without a comprehensive lifestyle assessment could have you jumping on every bandwagon for a solution. The reason? Mismanaged insulin and blood sugar levels fueled by wrongful food choices can have you tossing and turning the night away. Studies now link sleep deprivation to obesity, heart disease and diabetes - with the latter strongly related to Alzheimers and ...Read More

Face it - Life is Hard
By: Laura Webb    Friday, May 18, 2012
Conditions: Chronic Illness and Pain
Sufferers of chronic illness and pain have to struggle daily with physical challenges and the emotional roller coaster that typically occurs. As mentioned in an earlier post, being diagnosed with a non-curable yet non-terminal disease patients experience the same progression when mourning the death of a loved one. The truth is, we are mourning the loss of our previous life. We do not want to accept that there are things we will never be able to do again. We become angry, attempt denial by doing things we shouldn't and become depressed when unsuccessful. If still stuck in one of these phases, ...Read More

Why eat Superfoods?
By: Audrey Frawley    Thursday, May 17, 2012
Conditions: blood pressure, cholesterol, general health
Superfoods are known for being incredibly healthy because they have very high levels of antioxidants, vitamins and nutrients. Antioxidants are thought to have cancer-fighting abilities, as well as being able to reduce your cholesterol, lower your blood pressure and protect you from a number of diseases. Adding superfoods to your diet can drastically improve your health. Maintaining a healthy diet and getting plenty of exercise means that you're less likely to have to visit the doctor, go to hospital regarding weight issues or come down with illnesses. This also means you're less likely to ...Read More

Conditions: women, sexuality, rape, marriage, relationship, spiritual healing, tantra, tantric therapy, love
So often women face challenges that men just simply cannot understand. Many of us having grown up with some form of sexual trauma or another, lost love, low self-esteem, a lack of understanding of our own bodies, emotions and ability to stand strong in the great feminine among other things and our sexuality causes us to be scared of intimate relationships. I recently heard that an average of 60% of the population has experienced or will experience some form of sexual abuse. This is a high number! Sad but caused by the predators fantasies, insecurities and thus egoic attempts to control, take ...Read More

Conditions: Chronic Illness and Pain
I hope readers will forgive my not posting for some time but it has been a busy, exhausting, and at times, painful several weeks. Fortunately, the pain and difficulties are so worth the sense of accomplishment and feeling that I am living my life the way I choose despite chronic illness and pain. A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I moved to an old country farm-house with 20 acres. We had not planned to look for a house with land until this summer but the opportunity arose and we jumped on it despite the poor timing. We fell in love with the old house though it has no central air (which I ...Read More

Is Your Type-a Personality Getting in the Way of Your Meditation Efforts?
By: Jonni Gray    Friday, May 04, 2012
The Type-A personality is all masculine and goal-oriented, and therefore has pretty high 3-dimensional expectations. And since meditation has more of a feminine orientation - experience rather than accomplishment - it can be difficult to appease the Type-A. Yet it's because of the typical imbalance that the Type-A needs the feminine access. Our feminine side is all about senses, depth, experience, emotional, engagement, present moment, and our masculine is about direction, goals, future, projection, physical. Love is an experience of our feminine. And meditation and love have even more in ...Read More

Conditions: Healthy Food through Healthy Soil
Article by: Elora Crawford Young students at St. Alfred Catholic School learned a squirmy lesson in composting while welcoming their new friends — Red Wiggler worms — into the classroom.
