Mindful of Heart Matters

We know the mind is capable of talking the body into going beyond the point of reason to overcome fear and accomplish amazing feats. Examples include

walking over coals, severing a limb to live (the Aron Ralston story) or the placebo effect that cures patients of their illnesses because they believe they are taking powerful drugs when they are actually taking sugar pills.

So what drives the mind to make the body perform super human feats? Is it the adrenaline rush, the flight-or-fight syn-

drome or a higher power like a guardian angel? I say it’s an inspiration from the heart triggering the mind, stimulating the body to move so extraordinarily.

Here is a history of brain studies from the PBS documentary The Secret Life of the Brain:

As early as 4000 BCE, man experi-mented with the mind-altering sensa-tions caused by ingesting the common poppy plant.

In 2500 BCE, the ancient Egyptians believed the heart was the most important organ in the body; the heart was seen as the essence of life as well the source of good and evil, and the brain was considered minor and unimportant.

In 335 BCE, Aristotle claimed the organ of thought and the basis for thought were different. The heart was organ of thought and sensation, and the brain was merely a radiator designed to cool it.

In 170 BCE, Roman physician Galen’s theory of the bodily humors (fluids) affecting behavior became enormously influ-ential and remained the dominant theory for more than twelve hundred years.

During the Middle Ages, 1100-1500 CE, the church banned all human dissection, and brain studies ceased in Europe.

Since then, research has focused on neurological reactions to brain and organ stimulation of animals and humans.

Today, human consciousness is embracing ideas not found in medical texts but rather in ancient spiritual writings. We are seeing a resurgence or return to heart-based knowledge.

Even Inspiration magazine’s heroes Wayne Dyer and Deepak Chopra undeniably expressed the intrinsic value of a profound spiritual connection for healing and obtaining a higher qual-ity of life. A recent movie, The Living Matrix: The Science of Healing, confirms that the heart receives neural messages before the brain, which then signals the body to react. However, we still do not know what causes the heart to beat.

Whether you believe the mind moves your body or your heart is the trigger, let’s harvest the power of our minds to be more mindful of heart matters.

by Martha Harkey

CKahlil Gibran wrote, “Your pain is the breaking of the shell that encloses your un-

derstanding.” Sometimes extreme physical or emotional pain wakes us from our everyday reality, open-ing our hearts and minds to realize our life’s purpose.

So it was with my friend, Eagle. After winning the Junior World

Championship in racquetball and looking forward to a career as a professional athlete, Eagle was injured in a car accident. After a 360-degree spinal fusion laminec-tomy, he didn’t know if he would compete again.

Using yoga for rehabilitation, Eaqle returned to the courts in two years and eventually ranked among the top ten players in the world.

Convinced of the power of yoga by his experience, convinced of the role that yoga could play in train-ing and rehabilitation other injured athletes, Eagle retired from the world of racquetball and dedicated his life to the practice and teaching of yoga.

Eleven years after retiring from the sport, Eagle is returning to compete in the U.S. Open Racquet

See Eagle, pg. 7

accident, found his life’s passion through the process of his recovery.



Eagle, from pg. 6

ball Championships, starting on his fortieth birthday, October 3, 2012. We spoke about his life, his plans, and his insights.

MH: Eleven years after you retired from racquetball, why did you decide to enter the U.S. Open this year?

Eagle: I retired from racquet-ball to allow complete immersion in Ashtanga Yoga. This practice has allowed me to maintain my energetic state and has also been an evolutionary process. I have a feeling in my body, mind and heart that yoga has given me more balance, more poise, more courage, and more self acceptance.

The main reason for my return to the US Open is to demonstrate and share the magic and power of Ashtanga Yoga. I’m also retuyrning for the pure love of the game.

MH: Do you see a conflict between the meditative practice of yoga and a competi-tive sport like racquetball?

Eagle: Not at all. The practice of Ashtanga Yoga is a meditation in motion, as is the game of racquet-ball.

During yoga practice we tune into our deep breathing and in rac-quetball we focus on the contact of the ball to the strings. In both activities the motion is secondary to the central focus — the present breath, the present act, the task at hand.

This focus is crucial not only for competitive or professional racquetball athletes, but for all athletes.

MH: What have you been doing to prepare for the competition?

Eagle: My training has been a bit unconventional —a 100 percent vegan diet for lightness, vitality and sustainability plus daily yoga practice for increased energy level and recovery rate.

I train “ocean and jungle style” on the north shore of Kauai.

In the ocean, I do a series of deep breathing and water treading

exercises that if performed on land would look like a fusion of Yoga/Kung Fu/Qi Gong. I also do ocean free diving, body surfing, and long distance shoreline swimming with sea turtles and dolphins.

Jungle trail running develops agility and requires mental pres-ence to maintain secure footing and energetic deep breathing.

I also spend as much time as possible on racquetball courts do-ing running drills and plyometric exercises.

MH: Now that you’ve achieved your goals in racquetball, do you have a new goal for yoga on Kauai?

Eagle: My goal or intention is clear. It is a joy.

I want to share with my com-munity the same benefits and success that I have experienced mentally, physically, and spiritu-ally. I can do this by offering daily traditional Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga classes on Kauai with my fiancée, Shelley, who also is an authorized instructor.

Our deeply shared passion for Ashtanga Yoga and veganism make up our life together on every level. From this intention, we have developed our message, our “Aloha in Action”.

As part of this Aloha, we are deeply commited to the establish-ment of a community meeting space for yoga, meditation, and other spiritual or healing prac-tices - the Kauai Sacred GeometryYoga Temple Vision.

I invite and encourage the community to explore the joy of Ashtanga Yoga and our plans for the Kauai Temple.

Martha Harkey, Ph.D., is a clini-cal pharmacologist, pharmacist, and Ayurvedic practitioner at North Shore Pharmacy in Kilauea, HI. After more than 40 years in medicine and having practiced yoga for more than 15 years (eight years with Eagle), she is convinced that yoga and its sister science, Ayurveda, can be the source of health and happiness – truly the “science of life.”

Eagle can be contacted by email through [email protected].

Exercise the Brain by Playing Music

John Hopkins University profes-sor Dr. Charles Limb asserts, “There’s enough evidence to say

that musical experience, musi-cal exposure, musical training, all change our brain.”

Music lets us think in ways that we usually do not think, he claims, and music “trains other cognitive facilities that have nothing to do with music.”

Dr. Limb and other top scien-tists gathered recently at a brain and music connection symposium at the Association for Psychologi-cal Science in Chicago.

Four major views reported at the symposium include::

• When you can’t get a song out of your head, it means neural circuits are stuck in a loop

• Music, (like sex, drugs and food), release the pleasure stimu-lating brain chemical dopamine.

• People tend to agree on the emotions they hear in music

• Music is a brain language..Another discovery noted at the

symposium is the positive effects of playing music for people suffer-ing from Alzheimer’s and Parkin-son’s diseases. Alzheimer’s patients remember things better if music is being played, and learning a musi-cal instrument may actually deter dementia. “

Walking to a musical beat helps Parkinson patient’s motor skills. Dr. Aniruddh Patel claims patients walk better with a musical beat than with the absence of music.

So, enjoy playing music as a way of exercising and expanding your brainpower.

Read the compete article: http://www.cnn.com/2012/05/26/health/mental-health/music-brain-science/index.html

Introducing an idea whose time has come. “I’ve been taking care of Mom almost alone for five

years, She has Alzheimer’s. I’m exhausted and irritable most of the time.” You’ve probably heard a similar care-giving story.

As family and friends, we often ask, “How can I help?” Often a stressed caregiver doesn’t know what to request or even how to ask for help.

Share the Care (STC) is a volun-teer grassroots movement with a solution to help you care for loved ones at home without burning out.

Sponsored by Kauai Hospice, but not limited to hospice patients, STC volunteers help caregivers organize their family, friends, and resources to form caring teams.

For caregivers who don’t have sufficient family and friends, STC volunteers fill in as hanai. extended,

families. Volunteers perform such tasks as respite care, delivering a meal, babysitting, transportation to appointments, and shopping.

People are encouraged to vol-unteer only for things they would enjoy doing, for whatever time they have available. The idea” “If we each do a little, we can do a lot.”

Changing the Concept of Yourself by Dr. Wayne Dyer

There’s a level of awareness available to you that you are probably unfamiliar with. It extends upward and transcends the ordinary level of

consciousness that you’re most accustomed to seeing. At this higher plane of existence, which you and

every human being who has ever lived can access at will, the fulfillment of wishes is not only probable — it is guaranteed. This essay is simply a preparation for entering into that realm wherein you have much more say over what comes into your life than you might have envisioned.

After 18 months in relative seclusion, studying, meditating, and literally experiencing what it’s like to live in this miraculous plane of existence beyond anything that might be labeled “ordinary” or “normal,” I’ve undertaken this joyous task of writing about hav-ing wishes fulfilled.

I’ve seen firsthand how virtually every wish or de-sire I’ve placed my attention on has transformed from a mental thought into an objective fact.

However, I’m not proposing memorizing an eso-teric formula leading to a theoretical nirvana. My emphasis throughout this book is that manifestation is real and that it occurs when you make a specific decision to change your mind about who you are and what is possible for you to achieve within these parentheses in eternity called your life.

A radical new ideaI’m inviting you to be receptive to a radical new

idea about yourself. It’s radical because ever since you left your mother’s womb, you’ve been subjected to cultural conditioning designed to help you be content with living a “normal life” at the level of ordinary consciousness.

This generally means accepting whatever life hands you. In many ways you’ve been programmed to believe that you do not possess the wisdom or ability to manifest the fulfillment of your wishes and desires.

There’s a plane of awareness where you can opt to live — if you are willing to change your concept of yourself as an ordinary being, find yourself fulfilling any and all wishes that you have for yourself.

I’ wish to explore with you what I’ve studied, learned, internalized, practiced, and, yes, lived regard-ing the powers of manifestation. It begins with chang-ing your concept of yourself.

Ordinary and ExtraordinaryI would like to offer a few words on these two con-

cepts of ordinary and extraordinary.Ordinary is, well, so ordinary. It means that you

do all of the things that your culture and your family have programmed you to do. It implies that you fit in, study hard, follow the rules, take care of your obliga-tions, fill out the forms, pay your taxes, get a job, and do what every law-abiding citizen does; and then you retire, play with your grandchildren, and then you die.

I want to emphasize that there is absolutely noth-ing wrong with this scenario—it is perfectly fine—but if it were completely acceptable for you, you wouldn’t be reading this book.

Extraordinary encompasses most of ordinary, since we all live in the same physical world. There will be forms to fill out, rules that demand our obedience, bills to pay, and family obligations to manage. But extraordinary consciousness is associated with your soul, that invisible, boundaryless energy that looks out from behind your eyeballs and has very different

interests than your ordinary self does. The ideal of your soul, the thing that it yearns for, is not more knowledge. It is not interested in comparison, nor win-ning, nor light, nor ownership, nor even happiness.

The ideal of your soul is space, expansion, and immensity, and the one thing it needs more than anything else is to be free to expand, to reach out and to embrace the infinite. Why? Because your soul is infinity itself. It has no restrictions or limitations — it resists being fenced in—and when you try to contain it with rules and obligations, it is miserable.

Your invisible self is extraordinary because it is a fragment of the univer-sal soul, which is infinite. The part of you that knows you have greatness, that is stirred by the idea of ex-panding and removing any and all limitations, is what I am addressing here in Wishes Fulfilled. This is your new self-concept, one that is inspired by your soul.


bySaraWiseman

OOver the past few years, I’ve noticed something interesting: many of my clients tend to be in the midst of spiritual awakening, or began to

have spontaneous spiritual awakening when we start our work together.

Now, let me be clear—it’s got nothing to do with me! It’s simply consciousness, going viral.

Yet while it all sounds so excit-ing, this talk of awakening…sud-denly you’re in communication with guides, angels, the departed… When we sit down with the nuts and bolts a personal paradigm shift, sometimes it’s not easy to integrate that experience into your perceived reality.

There’s often a gap in our abil-ity to have psychic experiences (channeling, guides, mediumship, energy healing and so on) and to integrate these experiences into the paradigm we’ve been living with.

In fact, our perceived reality might even deny that we can have those experiences!

Your timing is perfectIf this is what’s happening to you, I invite you to

take all the time you need. Understand that the road to awakening extends perfectly, and contains all the time you need to shift, change and transform your consciousness.

In my own situation, it took a full eight years from the time of my Near Death Experience to my full spiritual awakening when I received The 33 Lessons. Now, eight years might seem like a long time, but it’s what I personally needed in my own life, in order to integrate what was happening to me.

Spirit guides came… and I rejected them. Spiritual teachings came… and I stubbornly refused

them. Life changes came and knocked me over the head… and I finally paid attention.

I was reluctant, resistant, very determined to hang onto the idea that I could control things, keep them a

certain way. It took a lot of heartache and failure, until I could finally let go of those ideas.. Even now, years later, I am still opening, deepening, growing.

So, if you’re in the midst of spiritual awakening… take your time. Allow your fears to release. Allow yourself to understand that what is happening is

actually true and real—and yes, it is happening to you, just as it happened to all those gurus and mystics and teachers throughout the eons!

This stuff just happens to folks… And right now, it’s happening more than ever.

The two-fold pathThere are two pathways to spiritual

awakening… one is spiritual, and the other is psychic. The funny thing is, both paths journey exactly the same road—just traveled from opposite directions.

For example, let’s say you’re a guru, a holy saint or mystic deep in spiritual practice. You pray, you do ritual, you sit in mediation and connect deeply to the Now, to the absolute energy of the Universe…in everything you do, your focus is your spiritual development.

And yet, over time, as you sit on your prayer rug in deepest trance, and as you expand your conscious-ness further and further… something happens. You become psychic, simply because your consciousness has shifted—and this is what happens when our con-sciousness shifts.

Now, let’s say you’re walking the other road…you’re a person deeply intrigued by the possibility of becom-ing psychic. You train with the highest level teachers, you take workshops, you practice your skills.

And as you follow this practice over time, the level of consciousness it takes for you to do psychic work—is a consciousness shift that transforms you into spiritual being.

No matter if you are taking the first step upon this road to spiritual awakening, or are well on the path…trust that it is the ultimate life journey, the reason we’re here. It is not hard to dance in the layers and

levels of the Universe, when you desire to do so, when you begin to practice and allow. In fact, it is the simplest thing—it’s what we are here to do, as Divine beings in earth bodies.

Consciousness, awakening, opening—this is our real task here on earth. And as you delve deeper into your own spiritual awakening, you will find the rest of it—anger, ego, anxiety, fear, hate, control—all sim-ply falls away.

Inspiration on the move!Kumu Puna Dawson brings Aloha to Europe

Kumu Puna Kalama Dawson, her haumana (students) from Kauai, Europe and Japan, along with her ohana (family), revered

kumu hula, and Hawaii’s Inspiration magazine in early September shared island culture with Europeans in the Open Hands of Peace Celebration 2012.

The group, called “In the Name of Aloha,” engaged with German-Bavarian communities at Bodensee, located at Lake Constance on the Rhine at the northern foot of the Alps.

The eight-day European celebration of peace through the hula is part of a student exchange program among Kauai, Germany, Austria, Swit-zerland, and Japan — aimed to help students learn each other’s cultures and traditions.

Matchmaking: An Art or Fate?ByNancyMiller-Chen,MA

Finding love in the sea of singles is both a magical mystery as well as an art.

For those who don’t have the time or the desire to regularly put themselves in environments where singles gather or else spend hours scanning online dating sites, hir-ing a personal matchmaker is an option. A matchmaker also is deal for those preferring more privacy about their relationship status.

Matchmaking is different than online dating.

Each matchmaking client goes through a confidential, in person interview and answers in depth questions designed to help define each person’s strengths, character-istics, personality types. The client also identifies the desired qualities and characteristics in their desired partner.

Most matchmaking agencies offer such additional services as image consulting, professional photo shoots, dating coaching, eti-quette training, and even concierge services.

A matchmaker’s primary re-sponsibility is finding high quality, potential matches for their clients, so matchmakers need to know everything they possibly can about each client.

A matchmaker further can help clients identify areas that need im-provement, such as style or appear-ance, and how to behave on a date.

Matchmakers also assist cli-ents in working through personal growth issues like fear or limiting beliefs that may be holding them back from attracting a meaningful relationship.

When it comes to love, there is no guarantee a matchmaker is go-ing to find the man or woman of a client’s dreams, but what keeps the matchmaking industry a flourish-ing how many people do make a connection.

Sometimes matchmaking leads to marriage; sometimes it doesn’t. However, a person who invests in a personal matchmaker will learn, grow, and ultimately become more confident and courageous — not just in love but in many other areas of their lives.

A newfound confidence and be-lief in oneself amplifies the myste-rious power of attraction, and this often leads clients to love. Is it fate, and was love meant to happen, anyway? Maybe, but we match-makers like to believe we had a little something to do with it.

How many global thinkers does it take to change civi-lization? Just one — you.

Yes, just one is enough. You are enough. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”

The paradox is that no one can do your personal growth work or community work for you, yet you cannot do it all alone. We need the support of others. What we do by ourselves is powerful; yet by work-ing together, even in a loose way, we are unstoppable.

Malcolm Gladwell’s book, The Tipping Point, explores the theory from Alvin Toffler that there are

pivotal moments in history when civilizations change directions, when a threshold number of peo-ple begin thinking in a new way.

Once a critical mass is reached, cultural pressures induce a quan-tum shift. Society adapts quickly. People act as if they always knew the flat earth was round.

Such an historic tipping point came in 1776 when Thomas Paine published Common Sense. We are reaching such a tipping point to-day. Realistically, how many more global thinkers are needed?

If global thinking and local actions are necessary and suffi-cient for human survival in these times that try our souls, how many of us must be enlightened before

we reach the tipping point when global sense is the norm on earth? How many global thinkers will be enough to awaken the billions of us still asleep to the power of our global oneness?

“Never doubt for a moment,” said anthropologist Margaret Mead, “that a small group of committed, thoughtful people can make a dif-ference. Indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Reaching the ‘Tipping Point’ for Global Change


byTobyChristensen

For most of us, sound is a con-stant part of our lives. Some sounds inspire or uplift us,

such as listening to a great sym-phony or a powerful gospel hymn.

Other sounds may create anxi-ety or discomfort, like the sound of someone yelling in anger, or the squeak of chalk on a blackboard.

Sound stimulates memory. Hearing a significant song from our past can bring back events and experiences with clarity that ver-bal reminiscences cannot touch.

Sound can be used to change moods or foreshadow events. For example, the musical score of a play or a film usually sets the tone for the story and lets the audience know whether something frighten-ing or exciting is about to happen. Similarly, playing certain kinds of music can help motivate people or send them spiraling downward in sadness.

With sound’s power and pres-ence constantly in our lives, we might be wise to find out more about it.

What is sound? Why does sound affect human beings so profoundly?

In order to answer such ques-tions, we must take a closer look at the characteristics of sound and its relationship to healing and the human body.

Sound EnergyPhysics tells us that every-

thing is made up of energy. This energy binds galaxies, stars, plan-ets, plants, animals, and humans together. Physical matter is simply energy taking form.

A new perspective of human physiology is based on an under-standing that the atomic structure of the body, at the quantum level, actually is made up of particles

of energy vibrating at different frequencies.

Thus, we are rethinking the body in terms of interactive energy structures as opposed to moving cogs in a machine. This line of thought holds the beginnings of “Einsteinian Medicine.”

Much of the power of sound lies in its rhythm or cyclical beat. The sound of one rhythm may invoke feelings of euphoria; the sound of another may provoke fear. By alter-ing rhythms or beats, sound can effectively create or alter emotions. The physical body also seems to be sensitive to cyclical rhythms. For example,

In her book, The Art of Every-day Ecstasy, Margot Anand cites the work of neurological research-ers, Irwin B. Levitan and Leonard K. Kaczmarek, who wrote, “There is evidence that some neurons in the brain fire repetitively at a constant frequency, that is, they beat… Such neurons are also sometimes called pacing neurons. Although external stimulation can change the firing rate of the cell, or inhibit it alto-gether, the mechanisms that drive

repetitive firing are often intrinsic to the neuron itself and do not require stimuli or external synaptic activation.”

Other neurons — called bursting neurons — fire in sustained rhyth-mic pulses that occur without any external stimulation. These are the neurons in the brain that are responsible for regulating auto-matic physiological processes like heartbeats.

When the body’s natural rhythm is disrupted, physiological and energetic imbalances occur that can lead to disease. Heart ar-rhythmia is a good example of this.

AttunementI’ve seen in my own Sound At-

tunement Therapy and Shamanic Healing that sound energy applied to the body can realign and recon-figure the energy of a person to restore health and well-being.

Sound has been used effectively by many of the world’s spiritual traditions to alter consciousness or heal the body. Mantras, prayers, and chants all generate energy pat-terns to calm the mind and rebal-ance the body.

Studies show that repetitive sound transforms the alpha and beta wave patterns in the brain into theta waves.

The theta brain wave pattern is conducive to relaxation and has been linked to a sense of height-ened creativity.

Sound further has been used as an effective tool for opening the-body’s various energy meridians and charkas.

Margot Anand in her book wrote, “Just as the resonance of one high, operatic note can break a crystal glass, and the right words can open a mind or heart, the right sound can open your charkas..The word chakra means ‘vortex, center,

See Sound, pg. 19

Understanding the Science of Sound


Sound, from pg. 18

or resonance.’ If we direct a sound that resonates into the center of a chakra, it can open like a flower. Every mystery school from ancient times to the present uses sound for these purposes.”

Bioelectrical RhythmThe understanding that every

process in the body has a distinct bioelectrical rhythm or beat, leads to the perception that when every-thing is working well — i.e., the energy of the body is in balance and able to flow freely — then health and well-being exist.

Conversely, when the rhythm of the body is disrupted or the natural healthy are frequencies al-tered, energetic blocks and imbal-ances start to occur, and disease is often the result. Restoring health means changing a disease produc-ing energy pattern to a health enhancing pattern.

Dr. Roberta Trieschmann wrote in a 2001 article on the neuron in Journal of Rehabilitation, “Every cell in our body has a characteristic vibration. It is highly probable that assessment of the differential vibratory patterns associated with health and sickness will be a core feature of the research of the 21st century.”

As we enter another election year with economic and political pressures exerting stress upon already taxed individual and familial systems,

may we each find the pathway home to inner grace and love. Let us not deny the catastrophic plight of Mother Earth due to mankind’s neglect and greed. May we each find courage and integrity to assist earth’s realignment in 2012 and years ahead.

Sometimes on earth, wars lies justify armys attacksLeaving victims scarred, starving, and struggling in villages,

Cities near and far.The earth-bound reality of haves vs. have-nots

Becomes more and more pronounced.The essence and truth upon which America was founded

Rots among elected and corporate leaders lies and deceit.Underneath this charade, evil stalks attempting once and for all

To claim dominion and victory.

Mother Earth responds with nature’s acts more and more profound.Ravaging floods, winds, earthquakes, tidal waves, and droughtsSo strong that even the ‘mighty’ are humbled by Her strength.

We’ve lost the Goddesses’ grace.

Humanity remains locked in values of aggression and dominanceWhile the Mother marches on, no longer whispering, stop.

Instead she determinedly realigns, retunes, re-balances her domain.Mother/Father, God/Goddess, may we awaken inner balance

So that peace, love and joy manifest here.

I bow now, surrendered, receiving Divine grace.No matter what unfolds,

May I ever open to inner Light.May I understand that my actions, emotions, thoughts

Affect the colossal play evolving.I stand undefended, vibrating in Light,

Committed to seeing truth,

Assisting Spirit’s message of love so needed here.I choose resurrection, not crucifixion, wholeness, not sin.

Beloved inner being connected to Divine Light,May your wisdom and compassion break open my heart.

May God’s love reign here now.

ByDr.RonaldS.Carlson,DDS

Unless we recognize our current mindset — our preconceptions based upon

only our educational training and concept-influenced-experiences — we are doomed to continue living in manner contrary to True Health.

The char-acterization of physical signs and symptoms as disease is our way of being able to ratio-nalize methods of a “cure.”

That is, a definitive name is placed upon a condition based on a collec-tion of signs and symptoms, we are then able to manage the condition as a “disease” by treating it with drugs, surgery, needles, etc.

In a real sense we box in the “condition” so we can effectively manage it as a disease, treating it as

if the disease truly existed! We label the condition and thereby make it something taking on a life of its own, which is fraudulent.

But what is a “condition?” What are the circumstances that

have led the individual with a “con-dition” to the doctor seeking a cure? Who is responsible for this?

Are we just victims in this Life who must accept our fate? Have the gods so ordained that we suffer with “our condition,” or is there a thread upon which we may pull to unravel this dilemma, so we may more clearly see our way?

Perhaps we have more to say about our conditions in Life than we are willing to admit.

The realization that disease or illness is a construct of our con-scious minds — a concept, a bogy-man — is so powerful that it may with (proper diligent investigation) revolutionize our current thinking about health.

The distinction of “cleansing

phenomenon” or purification — the Principle of Cleansing — is not based upon theory, hypothesis or hyperbole, but upon natural and correct observation — as opposed to disease or illness.

Given these insights, I suggest, lovingly, that you clean up your mouth. Get rid of your infected root canals, implants, septic mercury silver fillings and metal crowns.

You will do more for your health by beginning this process of puri-fication than all your visits to your medical doctor or health club.

You surely will do more good for yourself this way than by putting non-GMO organic whole foods or supplements into a mouth filled with oral sepsis.

Clean It Up: The Power of Purification for Health

ByJaneWinterM.A.MFCC

After 35 years as a marriage and family counselor, I am thrilled to discover Access

Consciousness, a set of transfor-mational tools to change anything. Could change really occur without the stories and processes?

Yes, the tools really do work for dramatic change on all levels if the person is ready to change. Most of us would like to change, but con-ditioning, the mind, and our habits can inhibit our intentions.

Grateful for these channeled tools that bypass the mind, the sto-ries, the conditioning that keeps us stuck. In this powerful time of 2012 no matter how much work we

have done, we can still react from old places and become destabilized quickly.

What if we could delete condi-tioning with questions to the uni-verse opening up all possibilities, a clearing statement, and the body process called running the bars? What if we could heal these places

without years of counseling and processing. When using the Access tools, people are breaking through and needing fewer sessions for real change to occur.

Over time, I notice that when I have not had my bars run, I am less peaceful, carry more tension, and am more easily destabilized and reactive.

I find that both teaching and running the bars sessions brings to me ease and breakthroughs by bypassing the personality and the conscious mind.

Charlotte Liddel, Network Chiroprac-tor, and Jane Winter offer powerful tools through classes. Please contact them at 808 822-2829, Healingvacation.com.

Access Consciousness and The Bars

Jane Winter and Dr. Charlotte Liddel


Homeopathy is a form of alternative medicine. German physician Samuel

Hahnemann first stated the basic principle of homeopathy in 1796, known as the Law of Similars: Let like be cured by like.

Homeopathic remedies are pre-pared by serial dilution with shak-ing and by forceful striking on an elastic body, which homeopaths term succussion.

Each dilution followed by suc-cussion is assumed to increase the effectiveness. Homeopaths call this process potentization. Dilution often continues until none of the original substance remains.

Apart from noting symptoms, homeopaths examine aspects of a patient’s physical and psychologi-cal state, then they consult homeo-pathic reference books known as repertories to select a remedy based on the totality of symptoms.

Based on the idea of the innate ability of the body to heal itself, Homeopathy is 100 percent safe and natural treatment conditions

such like allergies, PMS, addictions, stress, sleep disturbances, coughs, depression, arthritis and digestive trouble.

Dr. Suresh Kumar M.D. has a doctor-ate in classical Homeopathy and a doctorate in Ori-ental Medicine. He has practiced for

25 years utilizing complementary meth-ods. For information contact 808-922-2226, www.apimedspa.com Advanced Pain Institute - Med Spa, 2425 Kuhio Avenue Honolulu, HI 96815 (Located in the Aqua Bamboo Waikiki)

What is Homeopathy?

SAIOE Symposium

By Kristina Mekdeci

Using hypnosis, I assist my clients in reaching the deeper levels of their mind

to rewire and undo years of nega-tive conditioning. When we rewire old patterns in our mind, we no longer use them.

Every event we experience sig-nals a unique and distinct pattern of nerve cells in the central pro-cessing unit of our mind.

This part of our mind translates our thoughts, memories, beliefs, feelings, attitudes and imagination into cell patterns that when firing cause a chemical to release. These chemicals affect the physiology and the biochemistry of our body.

Some stored memories go back farther then this lifetime. My train-ing in Quantum Healing Hypnosis deals with past life regressions.

Many religions have a strong opinion about “past lives.” I sim-ply explain to clients that it really does not matter whether a past life

memory is real or not as long as the vision helps you break an old pattern. Perhaps, the life you saw as a monk was a perfect metaphor to help remind you to meditate.

Adding Access Consciousness to hypnosis allows deeper relax-ation by sending energy to points on the head called brain bars.

Combing the positive processes of the Cell & Organ Regeneration Program during the hypnotic state reinforces your connection to the unlimited healing power of the Creator within you. Hypnosis is a wonderful healing modality with techniques suited for anyone.

Nature is composed of spirals and curves; the hu-man body is no different.

Working with nature is the key to YogAlign™, a method of pain-free yoga developed by Michaelle Edwards over the last two decades on Kauai.

YogAlign marries the ancient wisdom of yoga with self-guided bodywork and modern science of biomechanics to transform posture to effortless natural alignment.

More than 95 percent of pain is a result of postural misalignment and breathing patterns. Posture af-fects our breathing.

Scoliosis, knee, hip, shoulder, neck, and back pain are often pain conditions caused by compression from poor posture and dysfunc-tional breathing habits.

YogAlign teaches deep core breathing that activates the psoas-

diaphragm connection, frees the rib cage, and tones the abdominals to stabilize and align the spine from the inside out.

YogAlign, functionally activates the psoas muscles to elongate, align and stabilize our spine, revealing a structure that invokes the feeling of float-ing as you move — enabling you to use the movements of breathing to create naturally aligned posture and a pain-free life.

This essay is an excerpt from the new book YogAlign, Pain-free Yoga From Your Inner Core, by Michaelle Edwards, Kauai Yoga School www.yogalign.com.

YogAlign for Pain Relief

Ayurveda holistic health therapies for the body, mind and spirit have been

practiced by yogis in India for thousands of years.

Ayurvedic wisdom teaches how to maintain and promote a long, healthy life, placing special emphasis on “food as medicine” to prevent and treat disease.

Dr. S. K. Kamlesh is a seventh-generation Ayurvedic doctor. He has taught Ayurveda cooking worldwide over the past 30 years,

including a favorite dish of Ma-hatma Gandhi, a soup he learned in the palace of the Dalai Lama. He also makes a famous rice pudding believed to have nurtured Buddha before he reached enlightenment.

Dr. Kamlesh received thorough training in how to determine health conditions through pulse, facial and eye characteristics.

“The appropriate diet to balance the three doshas or energies of the body can dramatically increase health and longevity,” said Dr. Kamlesh.

Dr. Kamlesh leads yoga teachers in a course that demonstrates how the daily practice of yoga asanas (postures), meditation and pranaya-ma (deep breathing) can create a healthy lifestyle.

Student can learn ancient

secrets to revitalize their own health and learn to counsel others on a health-promoting lifestyle at the Ayurve-da Nutrition Adviser Course to be held November 4 to November 17 on the Big Island. The two-week intensive course will be held at the Naniloa Volcanoes Resort on Banyan Drive in Hilo,

Students will immerse them-selves in the Gurukula teaching system, living and learning with the teachers..

Shared Wisdom - Bowl of Lightby Hank Wesselman PhD

In my talks with the Hawaiian elder Hale Makua, a kahuna mystic, it became clear that as

we awaken, our life experiences begin to manifest themselves as a true hero’s journey, as an upward quest that leads us inevitably into the direct experience of the spiri-tual realms. This journey becomes possible for us only through the doorway of the heart.

Through this gateless gate we personally experience connection with unlimited power and a god-like mind.

The inner fieldwork of the mystics suggests that the “vision-ary program” is closely associated with the ductless glands, the brain, and the heart, and these organs are in relationship with the dense concentrations of energy known as

the chakras, located in the core of our personal etheric matrix.

When these physical and ener-getic control centers are activated, the relationship between them dramatically affects the body and the brain, undergoing striking changes.

At this time, humankind has not experienced the triggering of these higher functions, but those individuals who have could well be prototypes for a new kind of human.

The paths that we take through life are the vehicles through which we awaken. So as each of you pro-ceeds on with your life, growing, increasing, and becoming more, please take these thoughts with you — with my gratitude and my warmhearted aloha.

ProfilesHer outdoor waiting area

welcomes patients with the sounds of falling water,

birds singing, and soothing music, encouraging the therapeutic ex-perience to begin even before one steps into her office.

The waiting area is just one aspect of a consciously designed medical practice that allows Rama Thiruvengadam, MD (Dr. Rama) to provide excellent medical care for her patients, and to take care of herself, as well.

Self-care is a challenge for many physicians today. That’s why Dr. Rama, who practices integrative psychiatry and mind-body medi-cine in Kona, also founded Physi-cian Heal Thyself Retreats (PHTR).

Dr. Rama’s lifelong fascination with the body/mind/spirit con-nection has directed her on a career path that has included many diverse experiences. First a board-certified pediatrician also trained in hypnosis and guided imagery,

she became a board-certified psychiatrist. While volunteering at an international retreat site in India, Dr. Rama was introduced to Rosalyn Bruyere’s powerful energy healing techniques.

Suffering from a severe leg infection that did not respond to hospitalization nor multiple IV and oral antibiotics, Dr. Rama re-ceived energy healing treatments. During the course of one treatment, she witnessed the tissue of her leg change right before her eyes.

After more than a month of being unable to walk, the energy healing treatments not only al-lowed her to recover fully, but Dr. Rama believes the treatments saved her leg. During her recovery, the idea of helping physicians heal themselves came to her, and the PHTR program was born.

For years, because of her work demands, Dr. Rama put PHTR on the back burner. Now, Dr. Rama is narrowing the scope of her practice

to focus on mind-body medicine so she can offer healing experiences and retreats for physicians.

On October 14-19, PHTR hosts an energy medicine workshop in Kona with Rosalyn Bruyere, Keep-ingYourFeetontheGround soYouCanSoar:GroundingandInsight. Deeply valuable for physicians; the workshop is open to anyone interested in learning about energy medicine.

Physician, Heal Thyself!

Becoming increasing popular for anyone recovering from illness or injury, Pilates can

be beneficial in a variety of rehab settings, including exercise for older adults and those recovering from sports injuries.

At Pilates Training Center Hawaii (PTCH), Pilates experts and rehabilitation specialists work with physical therapists to facili-tate the Pilates aspect of rehabilita-tion and the special programming

that requires their expertise. PTCH unites total body awareness and proper body alignment.

Pilates can be helpful for almost anyone, regardless of their specific needs. This includes, rehab clients, athletes and persons recovering from injuries or illnesses. Anyone can see improvement in movement dysfunction, neurological disor-ders, cardiopulmonary restrictions, orthopedic complaints, or a host of other physiological conditions.

As Pilates rehabilitation cli-ents work with PTCH, they gain stronger muscles, increase range of movement, improve postural prob-lems, increase core strength, and recover stability and peripheral mobility. Pilates provides all this in a low-impact exercise routine.

Pilate’s Training Center Hawaii also offers instruction and cer-

tification courses in Stott Pilates Rehabilitation Programs. These programs are designed for licensed physical therapists, occupational therapists, sports medicine profes-sionals and chiropractors wishing to integrate modified Stott Pilates exercises for injury prevention and rehabilitation into their practices.
