1) PUSH-BUTTON HEALING?


What if there was a button you could press and it would heal an ailment you have?


You might say: Yeah right!


But get this.


There isn’t one button to press that will heal virtually any illness you have.


Even cancer, tumours, viruses, etc.


There are HUNDREDS.


And they are on your body.


It’s the ancient art of acupressure.


Learn more about it over here.


My friend Kevin, has been working for 2 years on developing a training to show you an advanced, modern method of acupressure that produces results almost instantly.


Here’s a list of some of the things people are saying:


=> Erases feelings of fear and guilt


=> Replaces sluggishness and lethargy with quick, sharp energy


=> Corrects problems in your blood, muscles, joints…kidneys and liver—without dangerous drugs


=> Neutralizes immune system and hormonal imbalances


=> Almost instantly soothes feelings of unrest, anxiety and depression


=> Restores full, healthy function to your heart, adrenal glands and circulatory system


=> Experiences deep spiritual and emotional healing


All of these and more can be profoundly affected by energy blocks in and around your body.


And this new method of acupressure is producing astounding results.

2) SHAMANISM: AN ANCIENT UNIVERSAL SPIRITUAL PRACTICE
by Sandra Ingerman, Award winning Author, Teacher


Although I felt support from my family and teachers when I was growing up, I felt like I never received an “operating manual” for how to live in the ordinary world. As a child I had a deep spiritual life and was comfortable in the spiritual realms. But while I had spiritual experiences, I had no path to follow.


That is why when I was introduced to the practice of shamanic journeying in 1980, I received a great gift. I met my helping spirit, a guardian spirit who over the years answered my questions about how to bring joy, meaning, and health into my life. Shamanism provided me with a path and structure to follow to deepen my spiritual path. I found the empowerment I needed by engaging in the practice of shamanism as a way of life.


Even though shamanism is an ancient practice it is relevant to all of us today who are seeking ways to live a life filled with harmony, good health, and returning balance and peace back to our lives and to the planet. As a licensed psychotherapist my passion in teaching shamanism has been how to bridge such an ancient way of working into the Western world to deal with the current challenges that we face. Shamanism is a practice that continues to evolve to meet the needs of the times and the cultural needs of the people. The ability of the practice of shamanism to evolve is why it continues to be so relevant today.


Shamanism is an ancient universal spiritual practice that dates back over a hundred thousand years. The word shaman comes from the Tungus tribe in Siberia and it means “spiritual healer” or “one who sees in the dark.” Shamanism has been practised in Siberia, Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, Greenland, and North and South America. As shamanism has been practised all over the world, you most likely have personal ancestors who at one time practised shamanism.


A shaman is a man or a woman who uses the ability to see with his or her strong eye. Shamanism is a path of opening the heart, creating a doorway that leads us into travelling into hidden realms. In the hidden realms, the shaman interacts directly with helping compassionate spirits to divine information and to ask for healing help on behalf of a client or the community. In the practice of shamanism, the spiritual aspect of illness is addressed. An illness might manifest on an emotional or physical level. But in working with shamanic healing, the shaman is shown the spiritual aspect of the illness. There are some general diagnoses of illness, but there are a wide variety of ceremonies that a shaman might perform on behalf of the client. The key to successful shamanic healing is for the shaman to open up and become a vessel of the unlimited power of the helping spirits. It is important to design an individualized treatment plan for each client in need of healing.


The main diagnoses of illness include soul loss, where a client might have lost a part of his soul due to experiencing a trauma. Also a client might have lost some of her power, or there might be a spiritual blockage that needs to be removed. A client could also be dealing with a possessing spirit who has taken up residence in his body. In most cases there are a combination of these issues occurring. The shaman works in partnership with his or her helping spirits to diagnose the problem. The shaman works on behalf of the community to retrieve lost soul parts, to retrieve lost power, and to extract and remove spiritual blockages that don’t belong in the body. Shamans, also when needed, perform psychopomp ceremonies to lead souls of the deceased to the transcendent realms. The role of the shaman is also to divine information for a client or for the community. Shamans are not simply technicians of healing and divination methods. They have always acted and still act as healers, doctors, priest and priestesses, psychotherapists, mystics, and storytellers.


Besides performing ceremonies for healing, there are a variety of other ceremonies that shamans perform. Shamans lead ceremonies to welcome children into the world, perform marriages, help people transition to a good place at the time of death, and mourn the death of loved ones. There are important initiation ceremonies performed to mark transitions in a person’s life, such as moving from childhood to adulthood.


Shamanism is a way of life. The practice teaches us that everything that exists is alive and has a spirit. Shamanic cultures recognize that there is a web of life that connects all that is alive. Any belief that we are separate from other life forms or living beings, such as the Earth, the stars, the wind, is purely an illusion, and it’s the shaman’s role in the community to keep harmony and balance between humankind and the forces of nature. And it is the responsibility of each person in the community to live a life of honour and respect towards each other and also towards nature and everything that is alive. People are trained from a young age to use words, thoughts, and daydream in a way that creates a positive outcome for everyone in the community and all in the web of life.


Shamanism is a practice of direct revelation. And all that you need to learn can be obtained by working with helping spirits as well as tapping into your inner wisdom and vision. We all have creative gifts that we contribute to the collective. We all have the ability to be a presence of love and light that transforms our life thereby changing the world.

3) 10 FOODS YOU SHOULD EAT EVERY DAY
by Dr. Lori L. Shermek


The majority of foods that the many people are eating are dense with ingredients that are helping to create poor health or foods that are processed in such a way that is helping (a big helping) your health take a downward spiral if consistently eaten.   These foods should really come with a warning label!


Foods you should eat everyday must be packed with nutrients like vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phytochemicals, enzymes are powerful in terms of creating optimal health and it is these types of foods that will take you to living a vibrant quality life full of energy and lack of symptoms, illness and disease – optimal health.


Green Tea
There are a vast amount of studies showing green tea’s health and weight lost benefits.  What is responsible for green tea’s ability to prevent disease and more?  The catechins contained in the leaves of the tea plant.  Catechins are a group of antioxidants that are powerful in their protective ability against illness and disease.  Green tea is also beneficial as an adjunct to any weight loss program.  The catechin EGCG contained in it ramps up metabolism as well.


Avocado
Yes, there is a rampant fat phobia going on right now thanks to the myth of no or low-fat was healthy for you.  Healthy fat is critical not just to weight loss, but to optimal health and that includes your mood as well.  The type of fat in avocados – monounsaturated fat improve your cholesterol and decrease triglycerides (fats) in your blood..this means a reduced risk of heart disease and stroke.  Avocados also put the brakes on cravings and hunger.


Quinoa
Quinoa is one of the only plant foods that is a complete protein!  This is great information for everyone and especially vegetarians.  It has more fiber and twice as much protein as brown rice; quinoa even cooks just like rice.  It is chock-full of healthy nutrients and when you add the high fiber and high protein along with an added healthy fat, you have a food that will balance blood sugar and that means less weight and better health for you.


Apples
Compared to other commonly consumed fruits in the US, apples ranked second for highest antioxidant activity.  Much of apple’s antioxidant awesomeness is in the peel!  So do not peel the apple – buy organic.  Even though apples contain a modest amount  of fiber 2-3 grams, half of this is pectin,  which has a powerful impact on your health.  Apples help create better health especially in the areas of heart health, diabetes, cancer, stroke and brain health.


Spinach
Like other dark greens, spinach is an excellent source of beta-carotene, a powerful disease-fighting antioxidant that’s been shown to protect against and fight heart disease and cancer.  This  dark, leafy green, contains several important phytochemicals, including lutein, which helps prevent age-related macular degeneration. Spinach also contains Lipoic Acid, which helps antioxidant vitamins C and E regenerate. Because of its role in energy production, lipoic acid is highly effective for regulating blood sugar levels.  Spinach also contains a good amount of the highly important omega 3 fats – yes!  Spinach is one veggie important to optimal health.


Eggs
Eggs are not only low in calories, they are a powerhouse of protein, vital nutrients, and healthy fat.  Research has shown that people who replace carbohydrates with eggs for breakfast lost 65% more weight and egg eaters benefit greatly with more added nutrients to their diet.  The high protein content in eggs not only balances blood sugar keeping you from being tempted by junk food, it helps to build muscle as well.


Add these 10 easy-to-eat, easy-to-find everyday foods to your diet to help take you to super health.
