Yes! I have tried many many times during my lifetime to properly learn to meditate. Each time for whatever reason, I have been un-successful. Multitudes of inane thoughts would keep coming at me as if shot through a machine gun – what’s for lunch/dinner? Shopping lists – to-do lists/must call so and so etc etc! And try as I did I was never able to put these critters on leaves or in bubbles, and allow them to float away from my consciousness as suggested. So can you imagine my incredible relief when sitting at my first Matrix Energetics Seminar in Denver, to hear Dr Richard Bartlett, (ME Founder) say in his inimitable way that to do Matrix Energetics, you DID NOT have to know how to meditate, be a vegetarian, or give up coffee. Until that is – I came across a wonderful book called ‘Living from the Heart: Heart Rhythm Meditation’ by Puran Bair. I had found the missing piece to my ‘meditation puzzle’. The spinal cord acts as the hard wiring/bio-computer – whilst ‘breath’ was the magical essence connecting us through the spinal cord to Source. Interestingly, the word ’spiritual’ comes from the Latin words spiritus/spirare, which means to breathe or to blow. Adding the Breath with my heartbeat, to meditating was such a revelation to me, and I have been a meditation ‘convertee’ ever since.
Heart rhythm Practice is a heart-centred meditation in which you become conscious of your heartbeat and your breathing. And I love it when Puran Bair says in Chapter I that our soul already has a sense of familiarity with meditation that does not come from conscious memory – that it already knows what it’s about and why it’s valuable – once you get the hang of this way of meditating it’s as if your soul recognises this state as it’s own natural condition.
This book is packed full of useful information and different ways of breathing for different purposes – even one assisting weight-loss by speeding up your metabolism. A client who feels anxious when having to have her blood pressure checked, therefore sending it way up high, now does this whilst sitting in the waiting room prior to seeing her Doctor and now achieves normal results. Yes – we do have power once we know how to harness it for the positive as opposed to the negative.
However the main benfits personally for me has been: -
- My ability to slip so easily into this particular type of meditation which at once seemed so ‘familiar’
- A wonderful and expanded sense of relaxation
- A heightened sense of awareness
- A sense of alertness that has the ability to spark off great ideas and creativity as parts of my unconsciousness are freed up
- My heart experiences a tremendous sense of power - a sense of a widening of my scope and influence, having a great influence on my over-all self-confidence and self-image
- Breath and healing are interconnected and when we breathe we connect to Source from where all things come – from where we can access answers to all knowledge.
The book delivers a host of further benefits contributing to our peace, healing and serenity as well as to our own empowerment, as it deals with the Four Elements of Earth, Water, Fire and Air. It also has a very useful Chapter addressing the myriad and common problems experienced whilst learning to meditate.
So if you have been a Meditation Dodger too, definitely give this a try – and do let me know how you got on.
In response to my last Post ‘Learning to Access the Leader Within’, I received emails re Frank H Netter M.D.’s amazing book ‘Atlas of Human Anatomy’. Netter’s work as a brilliant and widely popular Medical Artist is renowned worldwide – and indeed my second hand copy is an old one from Churchill College Library Cambridge. The drawings are so exquisite and used traditionally by medical students.
I love using this book for my energy work, as it precisely helps me track down blockages and areas of energy disruption within the body. I recommend it highly as an aid for all of you doing this work – and it is a bit pricey – however a second hand one will do fine if you can find one.
I use my left hand [a sincere thank you to Dr Eric Pearl for personally activating it!] to scan the drawings – veins/muscles/organs/spinal cord etc. Other ways to have a go of this cool method are: -
- Using any of the methods of finger muscle testing, that you may be familiar & proficient with
- Using a pendulum
- Or just an energised hand if you are able to pick up strong & weak tests
- Do remember you are just looking for STRONG or WEAK testing – check your testing to verify which is your own personal strong and which is your weak
- And yes – it is important in the lead-up to 2012 that all of us be personally able to fine-tune and run-to-ground all and any blockages – the aim here is to eradicate all fear and leading to self-empowerment
Until later . . .
A little while ago, I was at Marseilles airport and on my way back to the UK when I spotted a newspaper headline that read: ‘A Squalid Day for Democracy’, which sent me into a reverie of thought. Soon after voting I had taken off to Provence to visit my son and his family, so I had been a little out of the loop. The situation was anything but clear as the Parties plotted and schemed their way through the business of putting into place a ruling coalition. At one hysterical moment, it looked as if the two losing parties might join together to make the ruling coalition. Interestingly, the Party with the very least amount of support ,was THE Party with the most power at the time and calling all the shots! With my plane delayed due to a recurrence of the Ash problem, I spent the time thinking of the subtle but underlying changes happening to us and to our planet. There is no doubt about it – the major theme of the coming age looks set to be personal empowerment. Slowly but surely, more and more of us are being forced by external circumstances to begin to look to the leader within, as opposed to the leader without.
Yes, perhaps we are a bit confused and undecided as to the exact path this should take, as results of the UK vote showed, however, the die has been cast. As we begin trusting our own inner guidance, and accessing knowledge from multiple dimensions, we are set to create our own landslide shift in world consciousness. Throughout the world, we are beginning to question the old forms of responsibility from church to government to banking. Our leaders not just in the UK, but worldwide are beginning to experience the general populace as not so easily led or duped. Having always traditionally and culturally deferred to the leader without – larger and larger amounts of us are beginning to defer to the leader within, and to question how personal and world Power is used and more often than not, misused.
Slowly but surely at this important time, the greatest need will be to look within to find our teachers and guides, as opposed to the old way of looking without – and this is the focus of this Post today. By learning to channel for ourselves, we gain access to information from the highest realms and therefore to powerful conscious transformation and amazing shifts in our evolution.
In learning to channel you will meet your Guide who will prove a trusted friend who will always be there for you , to love encourage and support you and to ensure that you are in the right place at the right time. Higher Guides do NOT take over or control you. In fact they are the epitome of tact and discernment, always showing you better or more advantageous routes that lead to your Higher Purpose. Higher Guides aim to enable us to achieve new levels of personal power and growth, and will always teach and encourage us to learn to rely on our own inner guidance, even over their advice, because, they will never take away the lessons that we are meant to learn.
Those who channel report feelings of being: -
- more grounded
- more stable
- more in charge of their lives
- more connected to their Higher Purpose
- more able to access unbelievable knowledge that in the old way would take years of study [for instance by 'playing' with Energy - I say playing as I came across this totally by accident - I could scan and locate in my Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy a precise point/vein/ligament etc within the human body where some kind of blockage is affecting the client - I call them the rocks in the stream!]
Previously where it took years and years of study for working with our guides, now for various reasons mostly huge vibrational waves/frequencies of light and information reaching the Earth, upgrading and affecting our DNA, it is now possible to have access to this all encompassing knowledge.
As well, instead of the old form of channelling in ‘trance’ where you would come to, not know what the heck went on, and had to have someone else update you [a form of Chinese whispers!] – now this type of channelling is a totally conscious one. One which allows the person doing the channeling to hear and interact with the information coming through, as well as have more control over which guides they connect or do not connect with.
This new form of ”channeling will give you the wise teacher you seek, one who comes from within rather than without”. A fabulous book that will turbo-charge your ability to channel is ‘Opening to Channel - a beautiful inspiring and empowering channelled work by Sanaya Roman and her loving Guide Orin. We all have the ability to connect with a high-level Guide, and according to Orin, Sanaya Roman’s Guide, ‘The only requirements are your desire and intent to do so”.
Opening to Channel: How to connect with your Guide by, Sanaya Roman & her Guide Orin & Duane Packer & his Guide Daben, is the perfect book to learn how to channel in this new way. And those of you fearful of ’surrendering’ to being in trance, will be delighted that this is no longer necessary and that you too can achieve ideas, knowledge, wisdom and creativity to instill some necessary magic into your lives.
There is an excellent Opening to Channel Book & Audio Course available in CD, Download or PDF. You will so fall in love with this work, that you will want to move on to Improve Your Channeling and Advanced Channeling Skills. Whilst there check out the freebies, articles etc, as well as all the other excellent books, audios & down-loadable mp3’s.

Tune in to some Energy Healing with nature this Spring Equinox, Saturday 20th March at 17:32 pm UK time. Spring Equinox is especially linked with nature; a day when both sunrise and sunset are exactly 12 hours apart giving us equal hours of the day and night. For all those asking ‘when is spring?’, especially after the tough winter we have had, well here we go! From here on in, the days will lengthen and our nights will shorten. So how exactly do we both celebrate and harness the energy healing that accompanies this important annual planetary change? [click to continue…]
Today, still moving along with the ‘Nemesis’ series of Posts, I ask that you take the opportunity this Mother’s Day to consider some emotional healing with your relationship with your Mother [UK 14th March/US 9th May - click for yours if different]. Yes, I know you have been waiting for years for her to change, before you can truly & emotionally accept her. But here’s the trick – people very rarely change so as to accommodate us! It is always US who have to do the changing, the re-perception as it were of what the situation actually entails. In fact I will go as far as saying: these people in our lives – the ones we have the most difficulties with, are actually the ones who teach us the most. Again here I may be out on a limb, but suppose we actually put these specific people in place on our ‘blueprint of life’ before we actually got here for evolutionary reasons? Suppose instead of seeing people as challenging and damaging, we were to see them as puzzle pieces to our ’soul quest’ in this life. That would turn the situation right around – instead of being the ‘victim’, we would now be the one moving into ’self-responsibility’. Instead of being in the backseat as a passenger on a dangerous ride to nowhere, we could now become the driver – the one in control of the how’s & where’s of this particular journey. How does this sound? Probably good – as I am assuming you have exhausted every avenue on this particular issue and put in the hours of various therapies, which is why you may be reading this now. So let’s have a look at how using Matrix Energetics & The Yuen Method can help you to begin to identify new possibilities. [click to continue…]
