A few ways to protect your body from radiation if you are getting xrays

Seaweed, kelp, dulse, neutralize radiation in the body. I use a mixture of spirulina, chlorella, kelp & dulse daily in my smoothie.

Chaparral- very strong liver cleanser

MSM 8-15 caps, start a bit before, take the rest during the days, opens the cells & flushes toxins out. You can buy the powder in bulk at tack shops with horse supplies for a great price.

Melatonin

Yarrow Vibrational essence - see my upcoming workshop on making your own vibrational esences on my forum : http://dragonflyherbals.proboards.com/index.cgi

Charcoal (so formula 2) don’t take at the same time as other supplements, it will absorb & negate them

Nettles, alfalfa, green tea

Load up with carotenes up to a week before: supplemental beta carotene doesn’t work as well, but still 75,000 IU would be worth using, carrot juice, nettles, dandelion leaves, darky leafy greens (juice, in shake, as salad)

Burdock

Selenium

Stones: turquoise, sodalite, amber.

Reiki for physical & emotional healing

Clarity, Guidance & Manifesting



It is amazing to be able to channel reiki energy on yourself or another & experience healing. On a physical level I often experience healing of recent physical problems while teaching a class. A sore back, a small skin problem, feeling like a cold is coming on.... all of these usually just clear up if I give a reiki session or teach a class. Attunements are powerful healing in themselves.

Long term physical problems sometimes heal spontaneously, or sometimes require many treatments. We begin to heal on a physical & emotional level when we do reiki on ourselves, but also when we channel reiki energy to another. One of my students had varicose veins in both legs & was scheduled for surgery on them. Repeated reiki sessions has cleared them up completely. And I know regular use of reiki helps prevent illness before it happens. Working further out in the energy field can clear issues before they becomes settled on a physical level.



Reiki can help with much more than just physical healing.

Reiki helps to heal on an emotional & mental level as well.

On of my students recently wrote that she's recently been reflecting on the past year of reiki classes & shares. She mainly used reiki at first to heal her dog who was having quite a crisis at the time, and couldn't walk. With many short reiki sessions, he is now walking most of the time & much happier. She says that her whole thought process has turned around so much this year, she is discovering spirituality, learning about herself, and developing compassion.

As we begin to heal on an emotional level, we release dense & tangled energies from our energy fields, and become more open to higher vibrations, and to being able to channel more energy.

You will often really begin to notice this type of clearing after you get Level 2 reiki. You can begin clearing more issues from your past, from past lives, and even issues we retain from our ancestral lineage.

You learn ways to clear on these levels with a level 2 class. You just need to keep reiki in your thoughts and remember to use it.

Ask the energy to help give you clarity on your life's path. Ask for guidance with finding a different job, or where you want to move to, help in clearing relationships. Ask reiki to help you clear patterns of behavior or negative thought patterns that no longer serve you.

Reiki can do all this. You just need to remember to ask or set your intention, while channeling the energy & gentle shifts will begin to happen.

One of my students wrote to me that Reiki can help you foster a strong mind-body connection and this can help you become more loving and accepting towards yourself and help you forge a positive relationship to your body which contributes to overall health and well-being. She went on to say that incorporating Reiki into your everyday life allows you to focus on being in the present moment and is a very helpful tool for people that suffer from panic and anxiety, insomnia and just general everyday stresses. Doing Reiki (particularly distance reiki) has given her the sense that she is more active and involved in her life (as opposed to just going through life passively, having things happen to that are out of her control) - and this has allowed her to really relax and enjoy life more and let go of the anxiety and constant worry that had been a continual theme in her life before she started doing reiki.

She also wrote that reiki is a great tool for gaining clarity as to one's path in life, and helps release energy blockages that can affect how you experience reality and life in general. This clearing allows you to become a clearer channel for information/inspiration from your higher self or spirit guides, and also doing reiki can really assist someone in bringing goals to fruition, because it really allows you to focus energy on specific ideas/goals so that you can carry them out.
I teach my students to use a healing book, to write their intentions, things they'd like to manifest in their life, healing for others, and things we'd like to release or heal in ourselves. We place the symbols around them & set this book up to send healing constantly. Its amazing to back & look through what you've written & see what you've manifested. It helps to have our goals written down so that you can go back & see when & how they've become reality & can express gratitude for this.

I remind my students that much of the distance healing work we do is invisible. We send healing to another & their higher self accepts this healing. Nothing is said. We know we've helped another & we are grateful to be able to do this.

Having your reiki is much more than just a tool for healing yourself & others on a physical level. You can use it to clear emotional issues from this life, past lives. You can use it to clear your ancestral lineage of physical & emotional issues that have been passed down through the generations. You can use it to focus your goals and what you want to manifest in your life.

Reiki brings clarity, wholeness, & healing.

Healing the earth with reiki is a tremendous part of our spiritual practice in the world. The earth is going through huge changes. Those who are called to learn reiki at this time are part of the earth's healing process.

We are all connected by a grid of consciousness. This grid and its energy is the overall vibration of everyone's collective thoughts & feelings.

By learning reiki we begin to change & improve ourselves & raise our vibrational level. We begin to heal ourselves. In doing that begin to change & improve the collective consciousness, and raise the vibrational level of all people.

By helping others heal, we help the earth to heal. We improve the overall energy on the planet.

Use reiki on yourself daily, and remember to use its energy to help heal yourself, others and to heal the earth.

BOWEL CLEANSING: The spicy stuff & the black goo

Here is some of what will be covered in the Cleansing & Detox Workshop:


To get on a waiting list for the workshop, please get on my forum & leave a message under the Cleansing & Detox Workshop section. It is also a space where you can ask questions about the workshop.

http://dragonflyherbals.proboards.com/index.cgi



Another part of getting your health in order, is to have clean & healthy bowels.


When I first transitioned into eating a raw living food diet, I started doing a Dr. Schulze bowel cleanse. I teach my students how to make this formula, it works really well.


I started using the 2 formulas, the spicy Formula 1 that goes into capsules & formula 2, also affectionately know as THE BLACK GOO. This stuff looks amazing to your friends & family as you stir the black stuff into a glass & let it thicken !


I stayed on these formulas for 8 months. Definitely between that & changing my diet to raw & vegan I went through some cleansing periods. My face broke out for 3 months, and has since been more clean & looks better than it has in years. Also some emotional cleansing, as toxins were releasing. 


As I discuss in my classes,  & in my Detox Workshop manual, you can do this as quickly as you want, or can slow the process down.


Dr. Schulze Bowel Cleansing


This is a reprint of patient instructions from Dr. Richard Schulze's clinic. This is intended for educational purposes only . I teach how to make these formulas in my Herbalist Course. I have added his whole manual to my website, I am showing a bit of it here.


I have used the bowel cleansing formulas a lot with clients & students, and the vinegar for the immune system is amazing. I use the greens formula daily. I teach my herbal students how to make all of these.


BOWEL CLEANSING & DETOXIFICATION PROGRAM


Your cleanse needs to include bowel cleansing formulas, in addition to using a cleansing tea & a cleansing tincture. 


INTESTINAL FORMULA #1: 


Type #1: The sluggish bowel type. This formula is for 97 % of my patients. The ones who need a help getting their bowel working frequently enough. 
Therapeutic Action:


This stimulating tonic is both cleansing, healing and strengthening to the entire gastro-intestinal system. It stimulates your peristaltic action ( the muscular movement of the colon ) and over time strengthens the muscles of the large intestine, halts putrefaction and disinfects, soothes and heals the mucous membrane lining of your entire digestive tract. This herbal tonic also improves digestion, relieves gas and cramps, increases the flow of bile which, in turn, cleans the gallbladder, bile ducts and liver, destroys Candida albicans overgrowth and promotes a healthy intestinal flora, destroys and expels intestinal parasites, increases gastrointestinal circulation and is anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal. 
Contra-indications: Do not use during pregnancy without the guidance of a health care professional.




Type #2: The irritated bowel type. This is only a small percentage of my patients. This is the exception to the rule, those with bowels that work too often, more than 3 bowel movements a day. This includes those that have colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, Chrones disease, etc. If your bowels are irritated, hot or are working too frequently, skip this formula and go to the Intestinal Corrective Formula #2.


Dosage:


Take this formula 5 times each day beginning in the morning for 5-6 days consuming a total of 8 ounces of the powdered formula during this period. One hour after your morning nutritional drink mix 1 heaping teaspoon of Intestinal Formula #2 powder with 8 ounces of diluted juice. It mixes best if you shake it in a small jar. Do the same ½ hour before lunch, between lunch and dinner, ½ hour before dinner and 1 hour before bed, so that you are consuming a total of 5 heaping teaspoons each day. During or after dinner, take your Intestinal Formula #1 as usual but increase your regular dosage by 1 additional pill, or more if necessary to have sufficient bowel movements. It is helpful to drink additional liquid after each dose of Intestinal Corrective Formula #2, at least 8 ounces.

Cleansing & Detoxifying the Body, part 1 of 2

What is a cleanse/detox?


Eating raw foods, or only specific foods or liquids to give your body a rest from the work of digestion, so it can begin to heal itself.

To tone & cleanse the main organs of elimination: especially bowel, kidneys & liver.  This will address the underlying cause of many health problems.

Being very mindful of what you are eating for a week or so gives your taste buds & your mind time adjust to foods that are nutritious. This can change what you desire to eat, and help you let go of unhealthy food choices.

Different degrees of cleansing will make it safer for anyone regardless of their toxicity levels, & current health.

My thoughts on cleansing the body is that it should be done gradually & gently. From my experience, severely limiting your food intake, fasting, juice fasting, etc. can be dangerous & tends to drop the blood sugar which can lead to shakiness, irritability, headaches, & feeling faint.

Cleansing kits from the health food store often contain strong herbal laxatives which most people do not need. None of this sounds too appealing & most people find it hard enough to want to take some time to restrict their diet to do a cleanse.

If you have health problems, or are on prescription medicine you should consult your doctor before attempting any cleansing. Do not cleanse during pregnancy or nursing.

What I recommend is gentle daily cleansing, which can be done for several months, or years at a time just through the use of a custom blended tincture to cleanse the body systems which are most toxic. This could involve candida cleansing, liver cleansing, bowel cleansing, cleansing the kidneys, lymphatics or any other major organ or body system.

Why should I do a cleanse or fast?

You want to clean toxic materials from your body to improve your health & improve any current ailments at the root cause.

Doing a cleanse, or eating a mainly raw food diet, or even eating a 100% whole food diet, plus bowel cleansing will do a lot to address ANY health problems you may have, whether these are physical or emotional.

More on how to design your own cleanse for safe gently cleansing of the body systems in a few days.

THE BASIS FOR GOOD HEALTH

Some aspects of getting yourself healthy that I teach in my herbalist course are:

1. Taking responsibility for your own health. Which is why I TEACH and don't work with clients.

CLIENTS COME TO YOU FOR RELIEF OF SYMPTOMS,
STUDENTS COME TO YOU TO CHANGE THEIR LIFE.
BECAUSE DRAGONFLY BRINGS TRANSFORMATION, THAT IS MY GOAL,
TO EMPOWER YOU TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE,
TO BRING ABOUT PHYSICAL HEALING, EMOTIONAL HEALING & SPIRITUAL HEALING,
TO OPEN YOU UP TO CLARITY ABOUT YOUR PATH IN LIFE
& WHAT YOU WISH TO MANIFEST FOR YOURSELF,
.......AND WHAT YOU
WISH TO LET GO OF.
FOR THIS REASON I NO LONGER WORK WITH CLIENTS OR ANSWER HEALTH QUESTIONS,
IF YOU TRULY
WANT TO MAKE LASTING CHANGE IN YOUR LIFE
I OFFER MANY COURSES TO
EMPOWER YOU TO MAKE YOUR OWN CHANGES

I know this can actually be quite difficult. But during 8 months of the herbalist course I just teach bits of information to do with taking charge of your own health & as you go along you get really comfortable with changes you want to make & what will suit your constitution.

2. Good nutrition

Good nutrition is needed for the basis of getting over any ill health & for PREVENTION is illness. I teach a lot about prevention of illness in first place and about using good nutrition as a base for getting your body healthy. Although you can still continue with bad eating habits & bad lifestyles & have the herbs work to assisting your body, if you truly want to feel great & have good energy, a clear mind & clean body you need to eat well too.

If you are continually putting poisons (which many people call their food) into your body you will not have good health.

I am 90% raw vegan. I teach not only how to move your diet towards raw & vegan, but also the steps in between, everywhere from letting go of junk food & sugar, meat, to leaning towards being vegetarian, to adding more raw food to your diet. As you begin to take steps towards getting non nutritious foods out of your diet & eating good whole living foods you begin to feel better & begin to crave more nutritious foods.

3. Cleansing the body

I also believe  in cleansing the body. I do NOT recommend store bought cleanses. In accelerating the removal of toxins from the body you can move towards better health. You need to cleanse the body in order to get your body working correctly tone & build your body systems. You need to have cleaner bowels & a healthy liver & a properly working digestive system in order to feel well.

More on this in my next blog.

I do have my Cleansing Workshop available in printed form as a download on my website.
