Guest guest Posted September 1, 2000 Report Share Posted September 1, 2000 Lori: I can't give you articles on your thesis, but I am delighted that you have found out out that " aromatherapy " on a product does notnecessarily mean that it is pure. Books by Tisserand, Gattefosse, Lavabre might be a good place to start.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2002 Report Share Posted April 22, 2002 I wanted to sleep under a pyramid but have been told I am too full of energy and that would only make me ill. Because it would create too much energy for me as a healer. So I haven't... But I do like the idea of placing crystals in a pyramid for charging and for meditating in one... a pyramid or a teepee... So just be careful with all that energy... Mystic Whisper wrote: ------ Message: 1 Sun, 21 Apr 2002 02:56:14 -0000 " smoke_away " charging crystals via pyramid Namaste all... I am currently searching for plans to make/construct a pyramid to charge my crystals and plants, etc. Do any of you use pyramids and how can I find the plans to make one? Have any of you experienced sleeping under or meditating under one???? I'd love some feedback (pro or con)on this topic.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2005 Report Share Posted September 26, 2005 In a message dated 9/25/05 12:58:49 PM, writes: I'm looking for some recommendations for any good books on dowsing or any suggestions. Start with Walt Woods' manual "A Letter to Robin," which is really an outline on how to dowse. Raymon has another book called "What Works for Me." Joey Korn has materials available at his website, dowsers.com. ORI, the Ozark Research Institute, established by Harold McCoy is famous for spiritual and health dowsing. There is ASD, the American Society of Dowsers to check out. And, my good friend Dr. Jackie Greedy is on the verge of publishing the best spiritual dowsing manuals I've seen. It's at the stage where it could be a few months or a few years, though. She does consultations for Soul Coaching that can be done by phone. Let me know if you are interested. She's in NV. I think you'll like dowsing. For me, it's another way of working with energies, and it helps you learn to trust your intuitive hits and back you up when the intuition is being sluggish. I use mostly pendulum dowsing, but I do have L-rods and a bobber. Keep me posted on how it's going. Sue www.coachdrgridley.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 27, 2005 Report Share Posted September 27, 2005 Thanks and will keep you posted. Verification is a great use for dowsing. The more skills we have at our disposal I think the better. I often use energy testing too. When we recently found our dog missing, I remote viewed and saw the image of where he was....the horse trailer. I then used rods to determine what direction I should go to begin my search for him. The rods crossed over on themselves only when I pointed in the direction of the horse trailer. That's where we found our dog who had been accidently closed up inside the day before.
