INVOCATION
A Prayer for Mother Earth
(modified from Nedda Whittels)
My dearest Mother Earth, Divine Goddess in physical form,
I offer Divine Love to support your healing. I recognize my and all of humanity’s contribution to the situation in the Gulf of Mexico, because no one of us is separate from you or from each other.
May all the Earth Kingdoms come together to support your healing.............. A Prayer for Mother Earth
TAKING HEALTH INTO YOUR OWN HANDS Part 2
SELF-HEALING – Part 1
July 2010
One of the difficulties in understanding the human self-healing mechanism is that it seems to be different things to different disciplines. Taking your Health into your own Hands Pt2
NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTATION
"Modern physics, various eastern philosophies and ecology all have shown that we live in a unified field. Our values, beliefs and wants must become attuned to the totality of life so that enlightened self-interest is in concert with the greater good. This new world embracing ethic includes a universal reverence for all life including animal life. It is urgently needed... Holistic medicine respects and is attuned to the "wisdom of the body". This wisdom, the connection between body sensitivity and mind awareness, has almost been lost to modern civilization which separates mind from body, man from animal and humanity from nature. Our bodies are not machines, nor are animals.
Holistic living is living in harmony with ourselves, each other and with nature as a whole: it is knowing that the quality of<꽬ū> relationships influences our state of health as much as our temperament, perceptions, genetic constitution and such. The same holds true for the health of our pets. And, the more removed we and they are from nature, the more disharmony and suffering there will be in the world."
Dr. Michael W. Fox, D. Sc. Ph.D.
