Poem ' The Mirror '

The Presence Felt in Marigolds

IT IS EASY TO FORGET WHO WE ARE
Sometimes we forget that we are all of the Creator. I know that sometimes my ego gets the better of me. This is when connection to the Source (God) is forgotten and life is throwing up confusion and chaos - nothing runs smoothly. Suffering - anger, pain, jealousy, sadness and the feeling of unworthiness are some of the ego`s manifestation and all come with being in a head-space that is the opposite of love and divinity.
"Where Is God when I need Him?" You might ask.
Of course God is right there - beside you and in you. It is just that you, and your baggage (ego), have pulled down the shutter and the light can no longer be seen! God lives in everything. It`s our mind and our emotions (that drive the mind) that have gone on a roller-coaster collecting more dust and debris on the way. Molehills become mountains manifested through improper use of the mind.

Here is a little poem about emotions and forgetting who we truly are:

                                            Disappearing
                                            Into the mirror
                                            I watched myself
                                            Within it all
                                            Hiding

                                             Woven fabric
                                             New and old
                                             With flecks of me
                                             In stories told
                                             Of waves crashing
                                             Rolling thunder
                                             Wind howling
                                             Going under
                                              Then
                                              Surfacing
                                              Sky becomes blue
                                              Cleansed
                                              And vision more true

                                              Softly, very softly
                                              Pushing us to see
                                              God calls out
                                              Look at me!
                                              Look at me!

                                              I`m here
                                              Within the garden
                                              In the fruit
                                              Hanging on that tree
                                              In the whispering wind
                                              That catches hair
                                              In song of bumble bee
                                              I`m here, I`m there
                                              I`m everywhere
                                              For everyone to see
                                              
                                              When you look in the mirror
                                              You are looking at me!

When feeling on a downer break loose and go outside and feel the wind upon your cheek. Feel the miracle of creation. Watch a bird in flight and the perfection of creation. We are all part of it!! Then BREATHE deeply and enjoy. Breathe in creation.

A Glimpse of Garden 2

Here`s to the God-essence within
And the perfection of creation

Sea Creature Batiks

 I do hope that my stories of miraculous healings, and how they came about, plus some metaphysical meanderings as well as my daily life, will fill your days with hope, healing, creativity and the Great Mystery. 

Cheers C.M.W
Hello everyone,
Thought I might share a couple of batiks. Hope you enjoy them.

Part of a Large Batik Using Sea Creatures to Provoke Attitudinal Healing
Sea Cucumber member of the Dendrochirotida Family

The series of very large batiks were hung in the corridors of a Queensland hospital. Explanations in poetry next to the batiks gave those that read them  insights into re creating a balanced happy life. We all lose our way at times and usually when we are ill we are suffering emotional as well as physical  pain. An unbalanced life is a precursor to sickness. Patients in hospital have plenty of time to think about life and how to rearrange their lives and attitudes so they can heal quickly.
Batiks, being on fabric, create a soft non-reflective surface which is easy on the eye. Often batiks can fill the space in which they are hung with warmth as well as beauty.

Patience and the Willingness of Acceptance. 
Open and Ready To Receive Love & Sustenance  in its many forms.
This amazing sea cucumber, a member of the Dendrochirotida  family, shows us how sea creatures are adapted to their environment. This sedentary sea cucumber lives on the soft muddy substrate between the coral reefs. The creature waits patiently as its large tentacles, with their branching dendritic ends, catch it`s food supply of plankton. The batik shows movement and fluidity. The sea creature naturally eats what it needs - no more, no less. It is open to receive and waits patiently experiencing the 'now' fully. The beauty of creation surrounds and imbues this remarkable creature.

Chromodorid Nudibranch

Adaptation and The Use of Creative Imagination and Expression
Part of a huge batik featuring the Chromodorid Nudibranch. These sea slugs have evolved with opting out of  having no hard protective shell! Instead they have evolved using many interesting shapes and colours. Many have poisonous or bad-tasting glands in their skin. It is thought that the beautiful bright colours are there to warn off possible predators.
We sometimes have to change ourselves, our life, our environment, bad habits - diet etc. in order to adapt  to new situations be they emotional, physical or financial. Use the imagination as creative thinking, action and visualization can allow us to live more fully and joyfully within the changed or new circumstances. Think outside the box. Delight in being alive now. Delight in nature. Look at things and situations with new eyes.
You are uniquely you. Make sure you bring your true colours into your life. BE TRUE TO YOURSELF
Change your colour and with a little imagination let yourself evolve into a new and authentic you.

Until next time
May love and joy be part of you and your day
Cheers  CMW                 

DISINTEGRATION - We live in a changing world

 I do hope that my stories of miraculous healings, and how they came about, plus some metaphysical meanderings as well as my daily life, will fill your days with hope, healing, creativity and the Great Mystery.

                         DISINTEGRATION OF THE SOUL - SEPARATION

            The Disintegration of Systems, Cultural Heritage, Religions, Community, Families, Humanity
                                           Disintegration of the Body, Mind and Spirit
The spinning vortex of  the LACK OF and FEAR energy sucks in those whose lower chakras are imbalanced, creating more greed and violence and more sexual perversion resulting in more crime and more confusion in society. As the vortex spins energy patterns magnify. Thought patterns, emotions, words and actions affect energy and create more of the same. LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE. The biggest energy patterns then swallow up smaller energy patterns. The focus these days, in the Western World, seems to be on materialism and consumerism, sex and violence. You just need to turn on the TV to realize this.

               THERE IS NO LACK or FEAR when one comes from the base of LOVE

Lack = Soul crying for recognition as is isolated from the whole by the illusion of deep-seated unworthiness.
Communication breakdown also occurs where there is fear or the subconscious feeling of lack or fear.

                THERE IS NO LACK or FEAR when one comes from the base of LOVE

If only we all had the courage to see how beautiful and meaningful our existence really is! 
If only we had the courage to still the mind and look inside for truthful answers and see how truly powerful and magnificent we are!

                 LEARNING TO LOVE, AND TO RECEIVE LOVE, IS THE ANSWER
This requires a shift in perspective - the courage to change the view we have of ourselves, as well as tolerance and reflection on nature and the miracle of life. Gratitude for the smallest of things, and experiences, as well as respect for those that have different ways of doing things and different attitudes and thoughts creates a space ready for love.
We are supposed to be living a healthy and happy life expressing ourselves as individuals. When we come from the base of love ALL this is possible.

DISINTEGRATION

Maybe the breakdown of certain systems is a good thing for the future, maybe it is not.
I believe the Mother Earth who sustains us, as well as humankind, is out of balance because of our indifference to the bigger picture. Lack of respect, and love for each other and for nature, is creating huge  breakdowns in every part of our society.

      LACK OF LOVE = GREED, CONTROL ISSUES, VIOLENCE, DEPRESSION, BULLYING
                  LACK OF LOVE = POLLUTION OF BODY MIND and SPIRIT and EARTH

If you are feeling unloved, are greedy and / or are buying more and more, if you are depressed, lonely, short-tempered or hate someone, if you are scared of saying how you feel at work or in a relationship, if you don`t eat good healthy food or starve yourself, or you find communication difficult THEN maybe you could find the courage to step into a new more balanced world of possibility by allowing more love into you life.

EVERYTHING ONE PERSON DOES, THINKS and SAYS  EFFECTS THE WHOLE (ie.all of us)

PLEASE READ below in last week`s blog some reminders of how we can bring more love into our lives.
The soul connection is all about love. 
Less love = less wholeness, less intuition, less miracles, less joy.

A better place, and space, is waiting for us
Open the heart and music plays a happier dance of creation

Cheers and much love in this changing world    CMW

Open The Heart

 I do hope that my stories of miraculous healings, and how they came about, plus some metaphysical meanderings as well as my daily life, will fill your days with hope, healing, creativity and the Great Mystery.

Open The Heart and Music Plays The Rhythmic Dance of Creation

An Open Heart Allows Flowers To Blossom
Green is the colour of the heart chackra

Love is the greatest healer. 
We all feel happy when we feel love or feel loved. This emotion, called love, radiates through every part of the body triggering a higher vibration that is more in tune with creation, magic and miracles.  
Yes, the power of love can most definitely create miracles !

WE ALL DESERVE TO FEEL LOVE, EXPRESS LOVE and to BE LOVED. WE ARE HERE TO BE HAPPY AND TO REACH, AND ACT OUT, OUR FULL POTENTIAL. TRUE LOVE GIVES US A BASE OF WHOLENESS FOR OUR POTENTIAL TO BE FULLY REALIZED.

Below are a few tips to start love rolling. I`m not talking of fulfilling a need from outside ourselves. I`m writing about tips to open our hearts to enable us to naturally attract loving situations, beauty and good health into our lives.

GET SOME ORDER IN YOUR LIFE
They say charity starts at home so, if you are feeling angry, let down, frustrated, sad, unloved, useless, unworthy, old, or hopeless, then do something about it now - start off by looking after yourself - honouring all that you are - A GIFT from the Creator.
Have a bath, watch a funny movie, eat less junk food and more live food and vegies. Drink more water, less caffeine and no carbonated drinks. Go for a daily walk and breathe in life. Clean up the mess. Put your clothes away. Clean out the fridge. Make the garden nice with a birdbath, or bowl, for the birds. Clean your home, rearrange the furniture, pick flowers, open the windows and blinds and let the light (and life) in, eat food on a really nice plate, massage your hands and ankles. It is the little things that count. Get your finances in order - if you are broke then make out a budget and daily write down everything that you buy and save each week. Save some $ every week. 
LOVE YOURSELF AND IT IS EASY TO LOVE OTHERS

FORGIVE
LET GO OF ATTACHMENTS and JUDGEMENT
SMELL THE ROSES
DO INNER WORK
MEET THE NEIGHBOURS  We have get-togethers with the neighbours about three or four times a year. A shared meal - BYO breakfast, lunch or dinner. All of us get agro with things the neighbours say or do SO instead of hoarding the negatives we get together and enjoy ourselves. Small irritations then dissolve.
Sometimes a neighbour then willingly helps out.
HONOUR INDIVIDUALITY
SAY THANKYOU
DO SOME FORM OF VOLUNTEER WORK  The heart opens easily when you help someone else who is less fortunate than you. 
RESPECT OTHER  WAYS OF THINKING, BEING
LISTEN   to each other, the wind, music, the heart, the birdsong at dawn. Listen with more than ears.
CARE FOR   yourself, your family, your ancestors, your friends & neighbours, the planet Earth and the air you breathe and the food you eat and the water you drink.
BE COMPASSIONATE   Put yourself in other  people`s shoes & feel how they are feeling.
HAVE PATIENCE  as the world will keep on being. You may need to compromise. Sometimes there is a hidden reason why things aren`t falling into place how or when you would like them to.  
RESPECT and honour your work
SING, DANCE, LAUGH, PLAY  - go on, I dare you!
WALK - preferably in nature, STRETCH or EXERCISE DAILY
LEARN TO MEDITATE - still your mind. When silence becomes you the experience is one of wholeness in which love and complete peace is realized.
YOU ARE LUCKY - Have you ten toes? lucky you if you have. Have you shelter? Have you something to eat? Can you read this? LUCKY YOU
GIVE 10% of earnings to a charity that is helping people somehow to reach their full potential and / or be more wholistic / sustainable.
BETTER YOURSELF AND THE PLANET
HONOUR THE DIVINE IN YOU AND THE DIVINE IN OTHERS

The Heart Of My Beetroot

If love is lost and you are thinking thoughts like " why me? It`s not fair or I`m a victim of circumstance", then KNOW THAT YOU CAN LEARN AND GROW FROM THESE EXPERIENCES! Life is always moving, rearranging and open to change. Our thoughts and mindsets dictate and manifest into our reality. Inner work, forgiveness and courage to let go and to step into the future is truly just a thought away. If we can become aware of our thoughts and actions, and reactions, then we are half-way back into the love zone. Look for the positives. Catch yourself out being negative and quickly say out load a positive. You know a pineapple has such awful sharp leaves BUT it also has very tasty refreshing juice that helps to keep our blood thin and therefore helps us to be more healthy!! THE GOOD DOES OUTWEIGH THE BAD.
Look for the positive in things, people and situations. You will be more of love (happier) if you do! Happiness is also great for business. Go about work thinking and enjoying your work. Be the best you can
and reap high rewards.

A Heart Formed in my Soup!

I see hearts everywhere in many things throughout my day. When I see a heart I think of love and straight away I feel blessed, warm and content. Lucky me!

Even My Egg Turned Into a Heart!

Take courage by the hand
Squeeze twice
Take a little love & sprinkle on top
Add a little more & shake for five minutes
THEN let go of fear, sadness and pain
Shake a little more and smiling
Sing Hallelujah!

Here`s cheers, sprinkled with lots of love,  CMW

                     Unusual Healing in Remote Tanzania

Welcome to Tanzania Postcard  

This postcard always makes me laugh. My adventures in Tanzania still make me laugh as I shake my head in disbelief at everything that happened to me whilst there.

I loved working in a remote area of  the Selous Game Park in Tanzania. No telephones or electricity, no real roads, a two-way radio that sometimes worked, very little water and a tiny bit of food. Millions of mosquitoes and no mosquito nets or anti malarial medication. Plenty of elephants, rhino, snakes, lion, baboons, impala, giraffe, zebra and wildebeest. A visual feast with an adrenalin rush. Yes, I loved it!

I have heaps and heaps of amazing stories about my time with the Africans in The Selous, but today I will share with you one of my many stories about healing.

This particular day I was alone in camp as the 'boys', and my partner Somerset, had set out in search of water. We had absolutely no water left in camp and each day was a scorcher. Somery had decided that he and the 'boys', would trek down to the great Rufugi River where they would fill up a few containers with much needed water and then bring it back to camp.

I don`t know if you have ever experienced acute kidney pain but if you have then you`ll know exactly what I experienced a few hours after Somery and the boys had left camp. Kidney pain is excruciating and I had it in my right side. I knew it was kidney pain as about ten years previous I had had an operation on my uterus that had gone terribly wrong, leaving my kidneys and ureters very damaged! One never forgets that kind of pain.

Well here I was in camp rolling around on my mattress trying to cope with the pain. I also felt really hot and nauseous. "Oh shit" I screamed in pain. "Bloody hell. I wish Somery was here". I curled up into fetal position rocking from side to side whilst at the same time grabbing my small of my back and side with my hand. Awful. No way of getting any antibiotics from anywhere as we were days from anywhere that sold medication and did not have the means to get there!

Meanwhile Somerset had set off happily with no idea that I was to suddenly be struck down with kidney problems. He and the boys were miles away on a water finding mission and oblivious to my problems. 

Was Somery really oblivious to my problems? On a conscious level, he most definitely was. Subconsciously though was another matter.

Somery and I were very close on many levels. We were like twins. When I stumped my right toe he stumped his left toe. When I bought red socks, he also bought red socks! When I met him he was wearing the same bangle, same sunglasses (& they were unusually weird), same brightly coloured socks and had the same music was playing on his car radio (Ima Sumak) as mine ! Everybody kept saying he was my double and, mind you, I am a bit different to the norm!

That morning as Somery was busy collecting water and trekking back with it to the clapped-out old Landrover that he had left on a dusty animal track about 700metres from the river,  he bent over and picked up a small brown rock that had caught his eye. "C... would like that" he said to himself, as he stuffed it into his jeans pocket.

The Magic Healing Rock

 Now you must remember that Somerset was not consciously aware that I was terribly sick back in camp.

                          HEALING COMES SOMETIMES IN VERY STRANGE WAYS

                                              EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED

                                     BE OPEN TO THE MAGIC OF CREATION 

                        AND MIRACLES CAN TAKE SHAPE AND CHANGE YOUR LIFE

Somery, and the boys, arrived back later that day. 

  "C..C.. Where are you?" Somerset yelled, as he walked towards the huts. 

  "Here, lying down" I screamed out in response. "I am in agony"

My partner immediately rushed to me.  "Oh God. What can I do to help?" he asked, as he held me in his arms.

   "Boil the water for half an hour, then after it is cooled I can start sipping some" I whispered. 

He stood up to leave when he suddenly remembered the stone in his pocket.

   "Oh, by the way, I picked up a stone I thought you might like" he said as he took it out of his pocket, "It caught my eye".

It was just an ordinary rock, just like all the others around the tracks. "How strange " I thought, as he handed it to me.

HEALING SOMETIMES COMES IN VERY STRANGE PACKAGES!

FOUR MINUTES LATER, with the rock still in my left hand, I started to sweat profusely. Sweat dripped into my eyes and off my chin, sweat dripped off my legs and hands. I then started to shake. This lasted for only a few minutes. SUDDENLY ALL PAIN HAD GONE. It had completely disappeared and I no longer felt nauseous and weak!!!!!!!!  I HAD BEEN INSTANTLY HEALED!

  

The magic healing stone, in hindsight, looks like a kidney!!

The magic of healing weaved its way into the subconscious of Somerset who automatically bent down and picked up the stone meant for me. His psyche knew that I needed help from that rock!! Isn`t creation a buzz? There is always help at hand - if you are in the flow and not too much into the head!!!

By the way I had no more kidney problems, or any health problems, for the rest of my stay in Africa. Years later I still have not experienced any major kidney problems or pain.

2013 The Year of The Black Water Snake

                                   HAPPY NEW YEAR              
                  2013 The Year Of the Black Water Snake

4th February ushered in the Chinese New Year bringing in the year of the Water Snake.          2013 = 6 in numerology

The sneaky SSSSSnake., quietly slivering and found in unexpected places. 
Go deeper into spirituality with meditation, stillness as well as activity. Dreams, insight, greater perception and intuition are huge possibilities if that quiet space within is found. A little Dream/ vision Message book is useful so that you can relate back later to the thoughts, visions and messages and learn from them.
The snake often symbolizes kundalini rising, creating a happier more wholistic existence. The colour black often is a symbol for the void, the space beyond the mind where everything is (except the ego).
Accessing wisdom and knowledge beyond the known.
Possibility of mind-blowing inventions that will help mankind. New ideas, innovative thinking.
Possibility of more than normal hurricanes, tornadoes, floods. - it`s a watery year.

Expect the unexpected. Changeability. Be prepared for sudden challenges.
Be CAUTIOUS in all parts of your life. If your car, or your own body, needs fixing, then do it now.
Forget the old "It will be right" syndrome and take your pills especially if for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and all diagnosed heart conditions. If you have chest pain SEE A DOCTOR! This year suggests heart problems, stroke, and eye and kidney problems.
Vit E, Fish Oil, Multi vit B  can be taken to assist health. Eat loads of fibre and drink lots of water.
Make sure your home is insured as this is a water year. Floods, tornado and hurricane activity could be stronger this year.
If traveling take out travel insurance.

Unexpected Flooding in Sth East Queensland Jan 26th 2013

EVALUATE your situation, or problem, before reacting. Evaluate any losses  and learn how to compensate.
BE STRATEGIC re safety. Be less careless and look at everything from an all encompassing view point.
ASSUME RESPONSIBILTY for yourself, your family and your neighbours. This year, being a number six, gives you the opportunity to grow spiritually by being thoughtful and compassionate towards those in need.
Check on single people, check on the elderly. Share what you have - no need to be greedy or self-serving.

The photo above was what my road looked like. Electricty ploes down, bridges well and truly covered and no phone - landline or mobile- and here was no access to petrol (as no electricty) any where on the Sunshine Coast.
Where I live though the petrol was still available as the shop had a generator which, mind you, could either be used for the petrol OR the shop (to try and keep frozen and cold foods in tact). Locals rushed to fill up their 4 wheel drives, AND their wives cars, without any thought for the farmers, the emergency vehicles etc. Where was the thoughtfulness and compassion for those that really needed to use the petrol? GREED and SELF-SERVING only. Why go backwards, closing your heart, when given an opportunity to warm and expand the heart? I heard generators going ALL day when other people close by had no food or water left.
Everybody can do with at least a cup of tea and a warm smile!!!! 
Yes, natural disasters bring out the very best, and the very worst, in people.

The TV news warned us to expect very little rain for the next three months. The weather was stifling  hot and my water tank was just about empty when my daughter told me about a dream. 
WE WERE FOREWARNED - my grand-daughter had a telling dream three weeks before the floods. She was given the time and the vision of us flooded. She would not have had that dream if it was going to be just a small flood. We listened and then prepared ourselves and bought in torch batteries, candles, gas stove/bottles, water, tinned food and pasta etc. - all fast cooking foods to conserve the gas.

Have enough tinned and dried food stock piled to last for two weeks. Make sure you have some large water containers, a gas cooker/camp stove, lighter and a couple of tarps handy. Think about what could happen and expect the unexpected. Remember that scientists do expect the sun to emit some huge solar flares this year!
Check out 2012s preparation list in my previous post on 10th Jan 2012 see below

C.M.W. reflections: 2012 Be Prepared Emotionally, Mentally ...

cm...wreflections.blogspot.com/2012/.../2012-be-prepared-emotionally

Jan 10, 2012 – 2012 Be Prepared Emotionally, Mentally, Physically, Spiritually. I do hope that my stories of miraculous healings, and how they came about, ...

Ancient Door Handle

Get A Handle On It! 
We will experience a mixed bag this year filled with ups and downs and many changes. Don`t play with fire ie don`t play the game of Russian Roulette. Be cautious, expect the unexpected, be prepared, be responsible and plan wisely and be compassionate. In an emergency look after the family and those people who are less fortunate. Use wisdom when difficulties arise. Delve deeper into the void so that perception and intuition, wisdom and spirituality are enhanced. Creative thinking will also be then more accessible.
  
 Here`s to a watery year
And to spiritual growth
Cheers,   CMW

Another Christmas Healing

I do hope that my stories of miraculous healings, and how they came about, plus some metaphysical meanderings as well as my daily life, will fill your days with hope, healing, creativity and the Great Mystery.
Cheers CMW
                                               AND THEN THERE WAS LIGHT
Christmas is a time to reflect on LOVE and the joy and magic (and miracles) of creation
                            Anything is possible if done with a pure heart and a joy of life

Light Shining Through

Christmas Eve, in my house, is always full of the Christmas spirit. Family is together and carols are sung and played. This particular Christmas Eve was  interrupted with an urgent phone call.
   "Hello, C... speaking." I said joyfully, as I answered the phone. There was a pause and then, just as I was about to hang up, I heard a man`s voice. "We need your help urgently"  said the voice on the other end of the phone.
   "If you would be so kind  - could you please tell me what the problem is" I said calmly, "so that I can see if I can help you."
The man, who now was sounding agitated, actually quite frantic, then blurted out his problem without stopping for a breath. He was at his wits end.
   " It`s my daughter. We don`t know what to do." The caller stopped to catch his breath and then continued, "They discharged her from the psychiatric ward a few days ago. She won`t eat or talk to anyone and she doesn`t seem to recognize any of us." He now started crying, " She just sits bolt upright with a vacant look on her face and if we try to take her to the bathroom or get her to take her pills, or eat something, she physically attacks us. We don`t know what to do. Can you help us?"
  The girl`s father sounded very scared, frightened at doing the wrong thing and also frightened at what harm she might do to herself or to others. It turned out that the hospital had discharged most patients for the Christmas break, sending them home to family.  All the rest of his family was coming the next day to celebrate Christmas. Everyone was coming for Christmas dinner, or should I say lunch? I asked him where he lived, as I lived on an Island off North Queensland - Magnetic Island. I needed to know whether I could physically reach his daughter or if I would need to do long distance healing. Luckily they lived in Townsville just a short boat trip away.
When healing takes place at someone`s home it allows me to get to know the family and them me. I can then am able to reassure the members of the family and gain their trust. It opens up an easy doorway to truthful communication. Family can then feel safe in asking as many questions as they need. They instantly relax and let go of their suffocating fear.
   "Let`s see. The next boat leaves Magnetic Island in about three quarters of an hour." I  could almost feel the relief on the other end of the line. "I could be at your place by, say two o`clock. How does that suit?"
  After saying copious amounts of thankyous, his voice managed to ask me if I needed a lift from the wharf. I didn`t. Us Islanders are very resourceful. We actually had a 'shared vehicle' that sat patiently waiting to be driven in Townsville, a blessing for us all.
   "What`s your name and your daughter`s name?" I asked "and your address? It is probably a good idea to give me your phone number too, in case I get lost." I laughed. "See you soon."

  I put the phone down and yelled out to my family that I needed to go to Townsville and then ran up the stairs to the bedroom. My brightly coloured sarong, island dress code, was replaced with the first cotton shirt that I grabbed and a pair of slacks. Teeth brushed, face and hands washed, hair brushed, car keys and bag grabbed as I yelled to my family "I will be back sometime late afternoon. Bye."
  The car was now winding along over the point, driving past the ancient granite outcrops with the huge hoop-pines lurching towards the ocean, as wind whistled through my hair. Love Magnetic.
Hot, very humid. Wind. Clouds rolling in. Change about to happen. Change with emotion.
   The modern catamaran had not yet become a part of the local ferry system. The fast-cat ferries now (2012)only take twenty minutes to get to Townsville. The ferry that I boarded was the old kind, wooden and slow. Open windows, seaspray wetting the hair as the old 'Mama' rocked happily about over and through the waves. Such fun and very communal!
Sixty-five minutes later I arrived in the stifling heat of Townsville. I opened the doors of the car and wound down all the windows, boy the car was hot. Finally I climbed in and headed in the direction of the poorest part of town. Twenty minutes later, water bottle and spray water bottle in hand (in Townsville a spray bottle is a life-saver used for cooling the ankles and neck) I arrived at the family`s home.
   I could almost feel the tension and fear inside the house as I walked up the three steps to the front door. Before I had time to knock, the door flung open and there stood a little Italian man and a well-rounded Italian woman, probably in their early fifties. "Come in, come in" they said, as they showed me the way to the kitchen. "Thankyou so very much for coming."
  "It`s my pleasure." I said, as they sat me down and handed me a cool glass of orange juice.They then proceeded to explain that their daughter was in the bedroom, where she had been for the last few days.
Their pleading, ernest eyes were fixed on me. I instantly was filled with love, and understanding for them. Looking them straight in the eye I reassured them by telling them what I would probably do. I didn`t say, and I never do, suggest that healing will happen. I also never say that there is no need to worry. I am swept up in the moment, not thinking about results, what ifs, or anything at all, except that I am of service, for the good of all. I also never analyze or try to work out things intellectually, even though I was trained as a nursing sister, as this would be me then working through my ego. Nothing bad has ever happened, only good. What form that goodness will take, I don`t know. You see I have absolute faith in God and somehow my utter faith in the universe/source/God gives out a calming affect. It is like the angels appear in the room enveloping the people present with unconditional love. That 'higher support' then allows me to go about my business.

I very softly knocked on the bedroom door as I didn`t want to create too much of a disturbance by knocking normally. Sudden interruptions can trigger anything! Then I gradually pushed open the door. There she was, a woman in her early twenties, vacantly sitting upright on the edge of her bed. You could hear a pin drop. No response at all to me. Eyes glazed, fixed, empty. No one home. She was no longer in charge of her body as she had left. Catatonic. The room was empty apart from her bed, a chair and a huge picture of Jesus hanging on the wall behind her bed. "Thank God they are Catholics" I thought to myself, knowingly smiling at Jesus. After softly saying my name I slowly reached for a chair, brought it opposite her and close to her, and then sat down in front of her. I have to let you know here that I have no fear at all. No fear of being attacked. If I did then I would have been attacked!! My mind is filled with so much compassion resulting in heaps of light. Nothing comes into my mind at all except the healing vibration of pure love.
Looking directly into the vacated eyes I very gently took hold of each of her hands. Closing my eyes I asked in the name of Jesus Christ for healing of the body, mind and spirit. Instantly the light, in my mind`s eye, was intense as the energy ran down my arms and through my hands into the young woman. Buzz, buzz, buzzing, surging down my arms through my hands and into the patient. Five minutes later it was all over. My eyes gazed directly at the girl`s eyes that were now filled with glorious light. Beauty had returned. She had returned.
"ThankYou, ThankYou" I said to the powers that be "ThankYou for the healing."
   "Lovely to meet you." I said softly to her. "I will be back tomorrow, and the next day and the next." She looked at me as I talked, and then squeezed my hands as if to say thankyou.
   "Your Mum will be in, in a minute, to help you change and get ready for lunch." I said, with a kindly smile on my face.
  As I left the room I turned around and gave Jesus a cheeky wink. "I`ll be back tomorrow."

When the parents saw their daughter, and the change in her, tears of gratitude flowed. "Thankyou, Thankyou" they cried as they hugged me, "It`s a miracle, we have our daughter back".
   "Don`t thank me, thank God. I`m just a channel for healing." I said, with emphasis, then added, "I must be off now, but, I will be back tomorrow. Christmas Day 9.30am! See you then. Oh, ring me if you have any problems."
After another squeeze I bid them adieu.

Light Breaking Through The Shadows

What a brilliant Christmas gift this family enjoyed.
Their daughter, who now recognized them, ate a little late lunch and later some tea that day. Christmas day was filled with family and joy, even though their daughter was still reserved and only ate a little before retiring.
It was as if her inner energy channel, her soul energy, had been totally empty. Full of shadows. The daughter`s inner self  filled up more and more with light each time she had healing. Light (is of a higher love ) heals the body, mind and spirit when the emphasis is on this.
There were no more violent or angry attacks and in a few days she was capable of taking her medication along with her meals, showering etc etc. setting the table etc. Another week and she was just about back to leading a normal life even though she was still on medication. Her parents were overjoyed and asked if she actually needed her medication.
   Medication must always be the medical practitioner`s business, NOT the healers. Some medications can cause severe problems if suddenly stopped. A patient should always be monitored if drug doses are reduced or pumped up. I suggested that the next time the doctor sees her maybe, if she feels like it, she could ask if it could gradually be reduced a bit. Never harp on it though. The doctor knows best in medication matters and is responsible for his patient.
 " Trust God."  I said to her. "If your body and mind can be happy, and balanced, without medication then God will find a way to alert the doctor."

The young lady in question had been on medication for years and years. When this lady was in her late teens she had moved to Sydney where she got caught up in the drug scene and had been severely physically beaten by her boyfriend, and raped, and had been on medication ever since. Also in and out of psychiatric hospitals. A horror story indeed.

It happened though, that that Christmas proved the best ever. A turning point in her and her family`s lives. A few months later her very grateful family rang me to tell me she was now off all medication. Of course she would be monitored by her physician all her life in case other traumatic events occurred and triggerred off a response. Christmas sure is a special time.
I ran into her a few years later in Townsville`s Sunday markets in the Mall. She was happy, beautiful, productive and leading a normal well-balanced life.

By the way I still don't know how her family got hold of my phone number, or even who mentioned me to them. That I will never know.

Please note:
It is such a pleasure to be of service and give a free service! So many healers charge like wounded bulls. I don`t charge for healing. When I was very very ill I had no extra money to go to see, or be seen by, healers. Luckily I had such will-power that I worked out ways to heal myself. There is no way known that the lady`s family would have been able to afford a 'healing'. Their happiness was my payment. On Christmas Eve when they asked how much they owed me and I told them that there was no charge, they were so very, very grateful. The mother insisted on cooking a cake for my family and also gave me one of their cushions. Lovely. The cushion has been sat on over and over, as I teach meditation and always need loads of cushions!
I think we all have a right to good health., and boy, it is so wonderful to be able to enjoy someone else`s good health!
