I just heard about this list on the Reiki Place list, and thought it sounds very interesting, so here I am! I'm a Master Teacher of 4 types of Reiki, and have been wanting to add crystal work to my practice, but haven't been able to get started in any crystal healing classes until now. I'm hoping to learn a lot here, and am really excited! I'll be checking out the lessons that were already posted shortly. ) More about me...my name is Mina (pronounce Mynah), I'm 31, married, and live in Maryland. I've got 3 furbabies (cats - Astrophe, Pewter and Presto) and a tank of goldfish. I've been into energy work for about the last 3 years, and I LOVE it. I can only think that crystal work will help enhance my practice. I've always loved crystals (collected them since I was a little girl...loved the vibrations in each stone, how it felt in my hand, the interaction of colors, etc...just everything about them) and so I think this will really be an enjoyable practice to learn. ) Many blessings, Mina -- Mina Smolinski - mina http://www.moonglowenergy.com AIM or AOL Screen Name: MoonglowMina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 2002 Report Share Posted September 12, 2002 One of my first experiments in healing with music was one of the most dramatic. It involved the endocrine system -- the pituitary gland is the central regulator of that system. Anyway the result was that we determined that the key of E flat is especially good for rejuvenating the endocrine system. There are a number of Classical music pieces in that key. It was a favorite of many composers, including Haydn.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Hi and welcome, Mel! I hope things go well for your mom! She will be in my prayers. Kava Kava has been getting bad press lately but looking at the reports shows that this product in use for centuries may be another victim of the medical establishments vendetta against herbs. They are reporting a link with some individuals having liver problems with it but the data is unclear wether there were prexisiting issues and how widespread it is. It is interesting to note those statistics against the extensive sucessful use of Kava kava for centuries in Polynesian countries. I have used Kava Kava in tea form for a month or two while I was under some particularly stessful times a couple of years ago. I did notice a good effect after drinking it about 1 week. Is the anxiety you have a general type or is it combined with alot of energy like an ADD type? Is it combined with issues in focusing? Sometimes food allergies can cause brain inflamation can cause Add type reactions with " nervous energy " . If you have thought type anxiety- related to specific thought patterns then it is less likely caused by food allergies but brain inflamation can have lots of effects!

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Melanie, Hi, I use chamomile, linden flowers and leaves (tilia), and lemon balm in an infusion for calming down my very nervous daughter. These are very popular in the Canary Islands. You would probably need 2-3 cups. Lavander oil is helping her too, it is has a relaxing effect. I have heard valerian is good, just don't go over the recommended dose, and after 2 or three weeks take a break, because overdosing can cause headaches and palpitations according to Pelelope Ody. Also valerian can react with some drugs, so research before taking. Valerian is another very popular herb here, so it probably is effective, but I have not used it myself.

Guest guest Posted December 3, 2002 Report Share Posted December 3, 2002 Hi Cindy, I found your response to be of great interest. Thankyou! I have been struggling with food allergies for over 10 years. I thought I had irritable bowel syndrome, but in the last few months after seeing a naturopath, I believe I am sensitive to milk products, wheat, potatoes and probably others which I am not yet aware of. I plan on being allergy tested by a naturopath as soon as funds will allow. I seem to have a general anxiety. I have only recently began to enjoy my own company after 3 years of feeling frightened when I was left alone with my children. This was all due to a very frightening out of body experience I had as a reaction to the antidepressant Ciprimil. I was alone with my kids at the time and that experience scared me so much, I don't think I will ever get over it. I resent being on Aurorox, the antidepressant I have been on for 3 years. And guess what? The main side effect of the drug is, you guessed it. Anxiety! But at least I am not depressed i suppose. I hate the thought that I am physically and mentally addicted to that drug. I found out recently that the drug company that manufactures Aurorix also manufacture drugs for AIDS sufferers and they refused to sell them at a cheaper rate to people with AIDS living in Africa, who lose thousands to the disease every day. It makes me sick to think that I am giving money to that company every time I reluctantly renew a prescription. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the manufacturers of such drugs add an ingredient that makes people addicted to them so they have to keep buying them, much like the cig companies. They are all corrupt and really don't care less for people's health. Only how much money they will make. Sorry to ramble on...just needed to let off steam. I am now down from 2 tablets a day to 1 and 3/4. And I am as anxious as hell. What do I do? I am determined to get off this stuff! It is probably no surprise that it was a drug that caused my depression in the first place. The contraceptive pill put in deep depression after only taking 6 tablets! I think I have learned my lesson at last. Natural medicine is the safest and only way to go.

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 You are welcome, Mel! Are you exercising every day to help you burn off some of that nervous energy? That might be particularly critical for you right now. Another thing that has helped me is to realize I could control my thoughts! Consciously choose what you are going to think about! When an anxious thought comes REFUSE to dwell there and put your mind on a pleasant thing. You can control and choose what you will think of and that knowledge can empower you. Burn the energy off and master your thoughts. Regarding the food allergies. I think it would be an interesting statistic to find how many people with irritable bowel actually have food allergies. I suspect the result would be staggering. If you want to test yourself at home you can do it with the rotation diet which is a bit consuming but can give result or if you are interested in another test you can do yourself I posted the details in this list at post #25274. I got the test out of the wonderful book, " Perscription for Nutritional Healing by Balch and Balch. If you can get the blood test though, the result would be alot quicker and less consuming but prehaps more expensive. I am still praying for your mom, Mel!

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2002 Report Share Posted December 4, 2002 Hi Melanie, So well done for you to be weaning off the drugs!! As I'm having a bad period myself, Doc Shillington advised me to get some Lobelia, which I haven't been able to get ahold of yet, so can't tell you how it works. However, I have been taking Doc's Total Nutrition, and that's made a world of difference to me. It was remarkable how my mood improved after taking that!! All the best, Lisa - melr500 herbal remedies Tuesday, December 03, 2002 4:06 AM [herbal remedies] new member --- Hello all,My name is Melanie and I live in Australia. I am very excited about being a part of this group.My mother was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and I have heard that massaging lavender oil into the pulses can slow down the very rapid energy of breast cancer. I am wondering if anybody has heard of or even tried this and what was the outcome?Also, I am currently going through a kind of detox, where I am using personal care products and cleaning products that contain only natural ingredients and are biodegradable. Also, I have discontinued wearing make-up and I am weaning off my anti-depressant. This is a big thing for me...I have resented being on them (it has been 3 years almost) and I really want to be free of them, but I don't want to be sick again. I found St, John's Wort to be of no use to me and have read negative things about it recently. I am curious about sam e. Hopefully I won't need anything. The weaning process makes me anxious and I am wondering what natural remedies I can try to calm me down. I massage a combination if essential oils into my skin morning and night. I also take flax seed oil daily. I have heard valerien (spelling) is calming, but only of it is not used too frequently as it then loses it's potency. Has anybody tried this for anxiety? What else works for anxiety?Any info would be greatly apprecited.Thankyou, Mel.> > ---> Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.> Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).> Version: 6.0.423 / Virus Database: 238 - Release 11/25/2002Federal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1.
