This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we experience a group past life regression led by Randy Goldberg.

Within each of us appears to reside the events of past lives. A migraine, chronic lower back pain or knee problem may be telling a story from an old accident or wound. A chronic sore throat may derive from strangling, hanging or choking. As the soul returns to life over and over these traumatic memories are re-created in our current life, often making little sense, and keeping us from living peaceful lives. They are brought to our conscious awareness by anxiety, panic attacks, anger, depression, phobias, obsessions, nightmares and unexplainable physical pain. Past life regression allows us to see beyond the confusion and illusions of this life and brings about a healing of the past life that resonates into our present life. Through Past life Regression therapy, we awaken from the constrictions of our past conditioning to release blocks stopping us now..

A few years ago I was depressed (apathy, no energy to do things) after eating vegan for about 6 months. I took the quiz at the mood cure http://www.moodcure.com/Questionnaire.html and fit in the Blahs category - I had cold hands and feet a lot. I took some Omega-3 oil and L-Tyrosine (an aid to neurotransmitters dopamine production) and within 15 minutes I was full of energy and more motivated than in months. I also took 5-HTP (a serotonin precursor) before bed. I added L-Phenylalanine (a precursor to L-Tyrosine) more recently. I also made the diet changes recommended - more protein from nuts, hemp milk, beans. I no longer had cravings for chicken that I had had and felt happier too.

For the record I don't eat dairy, eat, meat, fish, caffeine, alcohol, sugar or refined gluten such as white pasta, white bread. I found giving up alcohol improved my moods (no more low energy hangovers) and giving up sugar and pasta too - I used to get a sugar high and low from them too. I exercised the same (about an hour a day of yoga and meditation) before and after the diet change. I find I notice more the food I eat now - less of the eating to change my mood behaviors that I used to have (eg eating ice cream when lonely).

I eat about 30-50% raw food, the rest mostly Indian curries and rice or salads. I take daily vitamins too.

This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we learn about Infinity Releasing with Nancy Smeltzer. Are you performing below your peak? Would you like to get unstuck in your relationships, health or job? Would you like to be able to give yourself future tune ups on your own at home?

Infinity Releasing is a powerful technique that can assist you in clearing any issue that is blocking you from achieving your peak performance. This short process was originally developed to help athletes move out of a slump and stay in “the Zone”, but it has been adapted so a wide range of issues can be addressed, such as relationship, health, or job performance concerns. It’s a relatively quick process to learn and use, so come join the hundreds who have already learned this method and begin to experience relief from your life issues.

Nancy Smeltzer is a co-developer of the energy healing technique, Renaissance of the Heart. www.hearthealing.net Together with her healing partners, Dr. Mary Pellicer, MD, and Ceitllyn Connal, their modality has been used with clients in their long distance healing practice throughout the US and Canada; Russia, Switzerland; and Australia. As a self-taught clairvoyant, clairaudient, and clairsentient, she describes as being enrolled in the “School of the Divine”, and is “shown” what she needs to know in order to help her clients. Nancy also uses her skills in her ongoing research in consciousness and has collaborated with a number of other alternative healers.

The workshop begins after dinner at 8pm. I invite you to join us, though as always what ever choice you make you will be honored in.

This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we learn about Jungian Psychology with Randy Goldberg.  Do you sabotage yourself in love or business? Are you affraid of your shadow side? Would you like to be more in touch with your devine feminine?


Join us on this as a downward movement towards the shadow, the wound, the feminine.

This evening we will explore ideas about the ego/Self axis, complexes, archetypes, mid-life crisis, personality types, and alchemy. Carl Jung’s recently published Red Book made the NY Times top 10 best seller list, close to one hundred years after it was created. It is his personal diary and mandalas, detailing his descent into his unconscious with the use of a technique called Active Imagination. Jung felt that the real spirituality after the age 40 was shadow work.

Jung developed his own distinctive approach to the study of the human mind. In his early years when working in a Swiss hospital with schizophrenic patients and working with Sigmund Freud and the burgeoning psychoanalytic community, he took a closer look at the mysterious depths of the human unconscious. Fascinated by what he saw (and spurred on with even more passion by the experiences and questions of his personal life) he devoted his life to the exploration of the unconscious.

Randy Goldberg has immersed himself in Jungian psychology for the past ten years, taking most of the courses offered at the Jung Society of Washington. Randy is a former Yoga monk, a Craniosacral therapist, a world famous astrologer interviewed by the Washington Post and by CNN. He facilitates Family Constellation therapy for individuals and groups.

This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we learn about Homeopathy for healing without potentially dangerous drugs with Miah Kim. Are you tired of paying high prices at the pharmacy? Do you get too many side effects from multiple drugs? Would you like to try a more natural approach that uses the body's own healing abilities?

Homeopathy works by stimulating the body’s own natural ability to heal itself. Its basic principles date back to Hippocrates and were further developed almost two hundred years ago by Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician. Homeopathic remedies, which are energized preparations derived from natural substances like herbs, minerals and animal products, provoke a healing response in an individual’s vital force, treating the root causes of illnesses which may include emotional conditions.

We will also go over the cold and flu remedies that are helpful for this winter season.


Miah Kim is certified by the Caduceus Institute of classical homeopathy, a professional-level training program in homeopathy.


You can reach  Miah Kim at Classical Homeopath 571-377-9930 or miah_kim (at) yahoo.com

I think noticing how your body feels after you eat certain foods or cut them out is the best advice. Your body is the ultimate judge when it comes to what is healthy for you. We are all unique and learning to listen to our body is an important skill. For example if eating cheese gives you cramps and bloating might be best to cut it out. Sometimes we have allergies to foods we love. If this resonates with you then trying fasting or an elimination diet where you slowly add back in food types will let you know for sure.

How to listen to your body. You might need to go to a quiet place and meditate for a few minutes to be able to hear your body at first. You might also try talking to your body parts, tell each of them that you love them, thank them for helping you and ask if they have any messages for you about your food. If you are worried about talking to your body parts realize that most people do this already but in a negative way - giving nasty comments to body parts (eg bad tummy, ugly arse) and hating them. And it might take a while for the love to sink in after years of hating. For me my body has contained a lot of wisdom for me on food and all areas of my life.

A related idea is to eat meditatively. That is firstly really noticing how you are feeling when you get the urge to eat, especially if it is an urge to eat a gallon of ice cream! Perhaps I am upset rather than hungry and really need to get a hug and drink a glass of water. I suggest the water because most people in this country are dehydrated most of the time and thirst is often confused with hunger. Water also helps when processing emotions for the energy to move faster and for released toxins to come out of the body. As a book of this title says:
    "Food is not love and love is not food"

Secondly eat slowly - notice how eat mouthful tastes. There is not a wolf in the chair next to you who will steal your food from you (at least I hope there isn't!) but often we wolf down our food without chewing or tasting it. A waste of a potentially enjoyable experience and also bad for the rest of the digestive system as the teeth and saliva are the first step in digesting all the nutrients in our food. Part of eating meditatively is to focus on the eating sensations - not watching TV, having angry conversations, or working while while you eat.

This Wednesday Sandbox gathering we learn about Ayurveda, which is a 5,000-year-old system of natural healing that has its origins in the Vedic culture of India. Would you like to be healthier and have more energy for life? What if simple food changes could make you healthier? Would you like to feel more balance with nature, body, mind and spirit?

More than a mere system of treating illness, Ayurveda is a science of life (Ayur = life, Veda = science or knowledge). It offers a body of wisdom designed to help people stay vital while realizing their full human potential. Ayurveda reminds us that health is the balanced and dynamic integration between our environment, body, mind, and spirit.
 

Recognizing that human beings are part of nature, Ayurveda describes three fundamental energies that govern our inner and outer environments: movement, transformation, and structure. Known in Sanskrit as Vata (Wind), Pitta (Fire), and Kapha (Earth), these primary forces are responsible for the characteristics of our mind and body. Each of us has a unique proportion of these three forces that shapes our nature. If Vata is dominant in our system, we tend to be thin, light, enthusiastic, energetic, and changeable. If Pitta predominates in our nature, we tend to be intense, intelligent, and goal-oriented and we have a strong appetite for life. When Kapha prevails, we tend to be easy-going, methodical, and nurturing. Although each of us has all three forces, most people have one or two elements that predominate.

 

The goal of Ayurveda is to identify a person’s ideal state of balance, determine where they are out of balance, and offer interventions using diet, herbs, yogic lifestyle, etc. We will look at the Brahma Chakra (Wheel of Life) that is the philosophical system that became the basis of the Ayurvedic medical cosmology.

My aunt Wendy had cancer a few years ago and recommend the Bristol diet as part of a natural cancer cure. The quote below and research on the effectiveness of a plant centered diet is in the article linked above. This diet is good not only for cancer but for other diseases such as heart attackes, allergies and diabetes too. Interestingly this is similar diet to the one in the Mood Cure diet in cutting out sugar, refined carbs and caffeine.
