o you believe in magic? Have a read through this edition and see what our contributors desire to share with you this month. It may be an eye-opener… The topic of magic and miracles can conjure up images of unicorns, wands and spell books. But what if there is something deeper as to why so many of us are drawn to the ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘Bewitched’ stories. Is it that on some level we know magic is part of who we naturally are? And what if magic is way more ‘everyday’ and practical than many people think? Magic and miracles can show up the more we ask for what we desire and the more we look for all the little clues! For me, it’s realising that I create my life – wow that is rather miraculous! And more

shows up when I follow my knowing, when I follow my bliss, when I keep acknowledging the energy I be and what I and others create. And you never know the ‘how’… you have to trust the universe with that one! I feel pretty blessed that as a young girl I could dance around my bedroom at times (with hair brush in hand as a microphone) to empowering songs like Olivia Newton John’s ‘Magic’… “You have to believe we are magic Nothin’ can stand in our way You have to believe we are magic Don’t let your aim ever stray!” We are the magic we have been looking for! What a time to be creating our lives on this beautiful planet. X

FOOD FOR THE SOUL

Is

gluten-free, grain-free

the best way for you?

WORDS DR CARLOS SANCHEZ

I

always advocate a wholesome food diet to all my patients, whether they are healthy and trying to prevent disease or trying to heal a chronic illness. This is a diet of non-processed foods, preferably organic. Contrary to many beliefs, there can be certain foods that are nonprocessed, ‘natural’ and still can cause problems in some people. I have seen this in my clinical practice with regards to grains. Wheat, rye, barley and oats are complex carbohydrates (and taste good). They have a low glycemic index, which causes blood glucose levels to increase more slowly and steadily, leading to more suitable postprandial (after meal) blood glucose readings. Despite this, they will still cause a surge in insulin levels. Insulin is the main anabolic hormone in the body. It promotes the absorption of glucose into liver, fat and skeletal muscle cells,

converting it into reserves, glycogen or fat (triglycerides). Low levels of insulin have the opposite effect, promoting breakdown of reserve body fat. With two-thirds of the population obese or overweight, it makes sense to try to keep insulin low. I see a lot of patients who are non-coeliac, getting symptoms like abdominal pains, bloating, flatulence and reflux, which then disappear when they stop eating grains. Gluten in some of these grains can be a problem. A few years ago at a conference, I had the privilege of meeting one of the world’s leading gastroenterologists and experts about gluten, Dr Alessio Fasano. I asked him why some people could not tolerate grains (to my surprise, I saw him having toast that morning for breakfast). He told me there could be lots of different factors involved, from the type of grain, amount of gluten, use of GMO, type

START A NEW LIFE AT ANY AGE, HEAL THE HEART and ACTIVATE YOUR OWN STEM CELLS

of soil grown, etc. The reality is that a lot of people make dietary changes because it’s fashionable but they also feel better for it. This is what is called non-coeliac gluten sensitivity. Having grown up in Spain, beautiful bread and legumes are part of the staple diet, and as much as I enjoy them, I limit the amount of these foods, as I have experienced (along with lots of my patients) an increase in body weight and inflammation. I try to substitute them for lots of different vegetables, which have soluble and insoluble fibres, serving as a prebiotic and at the same time, you can ferment them and get probiotic bacteria that can help to keep a healthy gut. Don’t forget to get enough protein and healthy fats to complete your plate and to enjoy a tasty meal. www.ibukihealth.com

According to medical science, 74 health condi�ons can be helped with stem cells including:

Healing old emotions that cause disease and using a natural stem cell enhancer to regenerate the body is a powerful and unique way to find true health and freedom.

Product Review:

A

juice in a matter of seconds... REVIEW BY VANESSA FINNIGAN

I

like to think I pace myself well and take time out to smell the roses. Although I must admit, we have travelled a lot this year within Qld and so I have been on a mission to support my body even more. In fact it’s made me reflect on things… Twenty years ago I undertook my first ever cleanse and went on to do regular herbal detoxing, and small juice fasts. You do feel the difference when you undertake this type of life-changing work and it has an impact on your mind, body and spirit. Having a juice a day (in conjunction with your usual eating regime) can also

help promote good health, allowing the body to get a hit of nutrients easily. So, when I discovered Don Tolman’s CABALA drink powder recently, my body tingled with delight! This juice powder tastes great and has the benefits of a freshly squeezed juice, delivered almost instantly… CABALA is a signature raw organic juice powder blend that targets the health and functional capacities of your vision, heart, brain and skin. C is for carrot, A is for apple, B is for beetroot and L is for lemon, which are the vital ingredients it contains. CABALA organic juice powder is a super-convenient, tasty, immunityboosting way to get your daily fix of vitamins and minerals. When you want the benefits of raw, freshly squeezed juice, but don’t have the time to make your own, simply mix the nutrient-rich juice powder into a glass with cold water and you’ll get your daily fix of healthy, refreshing goodness.

It retains its “bioactive” nutrients due to the unique method of evaporation used, it delivers your cells the next best thing to freshly prepared, raw juice! BENEFITS: • Ultra convenient way to get your daily vitamins and minerals • Ingredients are ‘bioactive’, meaning nutrients are intact allowing you to receive benefits similar to drinking freshly made raw, living juice • Essential fibres (pulp) remain in the juice helping you to feel fuller for longer USE: Mix 2 tablespoons of raw CABALA juice powder into 250-500ml of water, depending on your desired consistency and taste. Approx 20 serves per pack. INGREDIENTS: 80% organically grown, carrot, apple, beetroot and lemon juice powders. www.tolmanselfcare.com

Warm Cauliflower Salad WORDS SALLY DOUGLAS

ith winter well and truly set in, winter vegetables are in abundance, making it the perfect time to create a nourishing and comforting roast vegetable salad with a creamy dressing! How good does that make you feel when you read that?! This salad is lightly spiced with crispy Brussels – which I almost guarantee you’ll love! The health benefits of this salad is one to write home about. Cauliflower aids weight loss and fights inflammation; Brussels are high in omega fatty acids and vitamin K, which is essential for bone and blood health; and parsley which reduce free radical damage, bloating and even skin damage. As a plant-based cooking teacher I am determined to bring back the Brussels! Gone are the days of eating mushy, over-cooked Brussels sprouts.

Ingredients: 1 whole cauliflower 15-20 Brussels sprouts ½ bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley 4 sprigs of spring onion 1 tsp turmeric powder Lemon tahini dressing (recipe below) Coconut oil for roasting, melted Method: 1. Preheat oven to 170ºC. 2. Separate the cauliflower florets into small bite-size pieces. 3. In a bowl, mix cauliflower florets with coconut oil and turmeric to coat. 4. Cut Brussels sprouts in half, from stem to top and coat in coconut oil. 5. Place cauliflower and Brussels sprouts on a baking tray and bake for 30-40 minutes, until golden brown.

6. Finely chop spring onion and coarsely chop parsley. 7. Add to a mixing bowl, along with roasted vegetables and dress with lemon tahini dressing. LEMON TAHINI DRESSING Ingredients: ½ cup hulled tahini ¼ cup lemon juice ¼ cup tamari or coconut aminos 1/3-½ cup water (depending on thickness of tahini) Optional: 1 garlic clove, finely minced Method: 1. Add all ingredients into a glass jar and shake until combined well. Stores well in the fridge in a sealed jar. www.fedforwellness.com

Saying

goodbye to food foes

WORDS JOEL GRACE, Owner, Sunshine Colonics Health and Wellness Centre

A

cceptance and letting go are a very important part in any healing process. But they’re probably two of the hardest things to come to terms with! When met with changes that we don’t want to accept – such as food intolerances – it’s human nature to ‘dig our heels in’ and resist. But what if I told you this attitude was working against your healing process? I’ll discuss how accepting your current situation – no matter how undesirable it is – is the first big necessary step to create a new healthier you. LETTING GO WITH LOVE I regularly see coeliac or lactoseintolerant clients who are annoyed that their friends can eat foods like pizza socially, but they can’t enjoy these foods themselves without experiencing IBS symptoms. Wallowing in self-sabotage isn’t going to get you anywhere, and it can only delay your healing. A technique I recommend to help accept unwanted food intolerances involves writing a letter to the ‘old’ You. The You

that could eat whatever they wanted without getting an upset tummy! Saying goodbye to the person that could eat anything helps you grieve that loss, and helps pave the way for you to welcome in dietary modifications with eagerness instead of frustration. SIMPLE SWAPS Let go of your attachment to the foods that are causing you gastrointestinal distress and give these sneaky swaps a try. Staying off dairy? Rice milk, almond milk and coconut yoghurt are all tasty alternatives. Ditch processed breads and choose a gut-friendly sourdough or sprouted bread. Instead of onion, try a pinch of asafoetida powder in your cooking to get that same rich flavour. When out with your mates, get that pizza on a gluten-free base and hold the cheese. You’ll grow to not even know the difference after a while, and probably end up preferring the alternative anyway!

SAME SAME BUT DIFFERENT Just because you’ve been told that you shouldn’t eat a certain food, doesn’t mean you still can’t enjoy some old favourites with your other senses. If you’re on a low-FODMAP diet and steering clear of garlic and onions, try cooking a little onion and garlic in a separate frying pan at the same time you’re cooking your main meal. Sure you’re missing out on the taste, but the delicious aroma can be one way to still get the onion/garlic ‘experience’ without paying for it in your belly. A similar trick for those who’ve given up coffee – try a coffee enema instead! I haven’t tasted a cup of coffee in five years but I still get to enjoy the perfume of rich, freshlybrewed coffee every time I prepare my coffee enema. These tactics might seem strange at first, but you’ll be surprised at how effective they are in ensuring the dark cloud of food intolerances doesn’t hang over your head. www.sunshinecolonics.com.au

FOOD FOR THE SOUL

Are your food choices

nurturing you?

WORDS DR SANDEEP GUPTA

A

lmost everyone knows someone who is overweight or has diabetes. This epidemic is so far reaching that diabetes and obesity have become worldwide public health disasters. They are part of a cluster of conditions called ‘metabolic syndrome’ which all relate to insulin resistance. This group of conditions is a huge worldwide public health problem. In 2000, the Australian Diabetes, Obesity and Lifestyle study (AusDiab) came up with the not-so-surprising result that around 19% of adult Australians meet the criteria for diagnosis of metabolic syndrome. The incidence of central adiposity is even higher, at around 43.7%. In 2014-15 it was estimated that around 6% of Australian adults had full-blown diabetes, which is mainly type 2 diabetes. Probably out of every four diagnosed diabetics, there is an undiagnosed diabetic floating around. Even more concerning is the rising prevalence of these conditions. The prevalence of diabetes in Australia has tripled over the last 15 years. There is a 40% increase in the incidence of

10

10.indd 1

| AUGUST 2018 | Holistic Bliss

obese adults over the last 20 years in Australia. This trend is showing no sign of stopping. Insulin resistance is a reaction to repeated exposure to sugar and refined carbohydrates. Thomas L Cleave, the revered navy surgeon in the early 1900s found that each time refined carbohydrates such as sugar and refined carbohydrates were introduced into a native culture, the culture tended to experience an outbreak of diabetes in around 20 years’ time. Quite simply, refined sugar (particularly fructose) and carbohydrates containing white flour products, for instance, lack fibre, and therefore lead to a spike of blood glucose levels, which lead to the pancreas releasing the hormone insulin, therefore opening the doors to the cells and liver to invite glucose inside so as to process them as fuel or to store as glycogen. However after many years of this, and also in the absence of sufficient physical exercise, the cells slowly become resistant to the insulin. As a

result of this, insulin levels become elevated, which has an inflammatory effect on tissues, and eventually blood sugars rise, the body stores more and more fat, and blood lipids become elevated, and the hormonal systems start becoming imbalanced. On one level, the simple solution is eating real, wholefoods, and to regularly move the body in a sustained manner. Viewing food as a sacred nurturer of the body, rather than as simply a vehicle for sensory enjoyment is another key. Moving away from a life full of addictions and instant gratifications involves connecting to oneself on a deep level. Being deeply connected at a societal level also tends to provide a level of nourishment that tends to prevent addiction to processed non-foods. May we all connect with ourselves and the living earth, and thus prevent further cases of metabolic syndrome, which is why I refer to it as a symptom of our collective imbalance as a world community. www.lotusholisticmedicine.com.au

Magic, miracles and

WORDS TATIANA SAVERY

H

ow many symptoms are within our control? Sudden spontaneous remissions, or miracle healings? Does magic exist? What about the opposite, when the magic is not present, is magic all around us? Do magic and miracles stop existing, or do we only shift to a frequency that appears to no longer have these? The joyful young teenager, champion sports girl, trusted friend… what causes the headaches, muscle aches, the lack of ability to focus? She begins to miss school and her favourite sports, the days in bed become weeks, months and years from debilitating chronic fatigue. A young man presenting in perfect health, strong, active, working. Dedicated husband and adoring father, suddenly diagnosed with late stage cancer and given a terminal diagnosis. How does this happen? What if being super natural is our natural state? Our frequency allows us to experience such a wide spectrum

that life can appear at times as magic or super natural, still at another time our life has no magic nor miracles. We are complex, nevertheless we now have the technology and ability to support reconnecting ourselves back into the ‘magic and miracles’ of being within our natural state, which is super natural. The young teenager regains her focus, strength and vitality. Within months she becomes a national champion. The young man survives his three-week terminal diagnosis. He thrives building a new company and healthy family. These are both true stories. We can all dramatically change our health, our lives, our miracles and magic. Changing our environment, habits, choices, these all assist and support us. However we all know this. Why is there still so much suffering and no abounding magic? When we live in a frequency with no miracles, it can be extremely difficult to connect to the frequency spectrum where magic happens. Although there is support in other ways.

Anything is possible, yet if one is in the frequency that believes in little possibility, there are fewer entry points to possibility. Shifting our frequency realigns us to possibility, to magic, to miracles. What does this mean for you? The use of frequency technology may support you changing your frequency so life has more magic. If you can’t shift or tune your own frequency, the support of frequency technology can create the internal environment where you have an actual experiential understanding of what it feels like to be super natural, or be in the magic, this then becomes knowledge. From this place, by experience one can never go back, it becomes impossible to ‘unknow’ the known. What magic, miracles and super natural states are waiting for you?

WORDS GAYLYN AITKEN

I

was born in New Zealand and spent my first 20 years growing up in Northland. I left New Zealand in 1976 for Australia and after travelling back and forth for a couple of years I eventually settled in Australia. I’ve always felt deeply connected to the spirit of my homeland and when a student I helped train in Hawai’i offered

me the opportunity to teach Kahuna Bodywork and Kahuna principles in New Zealand, I was overjoyed. In 2004 my teacher Kahuna Abraham Kawai’i passed away. About two years after that I took my first class, a lecture and a weekend of Ka’alele au and Kahuna movement principles in Auckland. I felt like a fledgling, barely able to

fly that first time, but I was eager and enthusiastic to share what I had learnt from the Kahuna about life management. My training with Kahu was only ever about me. He offered trainings in different mediums, never as an absolute, but rather as an avenue for an individual to learn about himself or herself. The application of oneself in any given

situation and the depth of awareness of one’s motion is expression of an individual’s relationship with themselves. Developing awareness of one’s motion then refining that motion is the lesson. He used a series of movement sequences he called Ka’alele au or ‘Flight of the Navigator’ to develop awareness of timing and placement within motion and how to change without losing step. Our body is the vehicle of our spirit, so changing unsustainable movement patterns influences the psychological and emotional concepts that limit expanded range of motion potential. In the beginning my workshops and retreats followed the same format and structure of the Kahuna’s but I found it too intense for most people. It was following a couple of disturbing incidents, I decided I needed to change how I taught Kahuna Bodywork to be more reflective of me and less of the Kahuna without compromising the richness and depth of Kahuna principles. For me, it was a big step to develop and offer a different teaching style but I persevered because I knew I couldn’t do it any other way but my way and if I was going to continue on this path I needed to make it work. My passion and interest has always been with movement and curiosity for how things work, especially the human

body. I decided that I needed to learn more about the mechanics of human movement to present a more definitive relationship between the nature of an individual’s life situation and their physical motion. Studying Biomechanics with Katie Bowman, Moshe Feldenkrais human movement and Psoas Awareness with Liz Koch enabled me to translate the principles of the Kahuna into a language that made it more accessible to our western mind. Over this period of time, I took a break from teaching in New Zealand, learning and refining my skills until I was ready to return with my style of Kahuna Bodywork and principles training. The focus for these workshops is primarily the development of an individual’s awareness of their body and how to change posture and movement patterns that no longer contribute to their wellbeing. Understanding that our body is the vehicle of our spirit and the instrument for psychological change is a powerful propellant for evolutionary development. Where our body goes, so too goes our mind. Compassion is the side effect of getting to know you without judgment or concepts. You learn to know your

business; your body… what is yours and what is outside of you. This is extremely important if a person is touching another to effect change, as in massage or bodywork. Knowing what belongs to you and what belongs to the other, enables a therapist to remain deeply embedded and grounded in their own body. Moving within this aware space allows both parties to experience themselves within motion. Kahu spoke of bodywork as a performance, the one on the table presenting the script, and the body worker performing the script. This is the essence of Kahuna Bodywork, no intention, no preconceived notions of what should or shouldn’t be, just a flowing expression of the script. The deeper a person is compassionately involved in the business of their body, the clearer they are in reading and performing what is present in the other. Think of the being on the table taken and moved by the sensitive rhythm of the performer. Learning Kahuna Bodywork isn’t just for massage therapists. It’s a medium that can be used as feedback for a person’s physical and psychological range of motion, stamina, resiliency and life management. www.kahunamist.com

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Magic in the body WORDS JEAN SHEEHAN, Principal – Millennium Education

W

hat if you had a magic power within your body called feminine essence? Welcome to your right brain! Your personal body part that encapsulates your MAGIC and feminine essence. Your right brain, or what I like to call the feminine essence, allows each and every one of us to see the bigger picture of life. It’s like when a mum hears her baby cry she knows deep within her what that child requires. Maybe her primary school son comes home crying. The mum accesses her MAGIC from her right brain naturally to know how to support her son and what he requires now and for the future. This is because the right brain has an ability to see the bigger picture. This divine body part is the creative brain, the part of the mind that comes up with all your personal solutions to your problems – just like MAGIC. Your spirit is meant to be creative, fun, playful and excitedly open and that is what your right brain brings to your life. It brings the MAGIC to all you do. The gift of feminine essence allows you to feel emotions such as: love, pain,

sympathy, compassion, anger and especially your dreams and aspirations. Feelings connect with the bigger picture to create that MAGIC that gives you opportunities to create your heart’s desires. The right brain is excited at the thought of creating and dreaming and imagining. This is the key to making your life MAGIC and filled with miracles. Without dreams, life would not happen. You are naturally doing and accessing this spirit within you all the time. To enhance the feminine MAGIC essence here are three tips: 1. Allow yourself to day dream. Take time to be still, reflect, dream and allow your imagination to be wild, as the answers that come to you will be divinely guided. 2. Draw, paint, do craft, do anything that is away from computers, intellect and technology. If you are not arty that is fine, take yourself to the beach and draw in the sand with your foot, dragging the sand this way and that, as that opens the right brain feminine essence to come top of mind.

3. Acknowledge you as there is MAGIC when you do this! The more you acknowledge, accept and embrace your spirit and brilliance, the more you will notice the power of the MAGIC. Your feminine essence and right brain, have made MAGIC for you and will continue to do so. Allow your innate wisdom to whisper to you all the universal secrets. And know you are already a powerful soul as you were born with a right brain.

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Flourish in a fast-paced world WORDS SUZI LE FANUE

A

re you stressed? Tired? Wired? Overwhelmed? Are you confused about your health? In today’s modern world, most of us lead a busy life. What we see frequently in the clinic is clients without a diagnosed condition, but rather explaining that they are feeling depleted, stressed, exhausted, unmotivated and physically out of balance. Being busy has become the norm. Even when you are productive and love what you do, you can still experience the same surge of hormones that people feel when they are stressed and overworked. The reason is, your body needs to keep you focused and alert. The hormones that create this in your body are cortisol and adrenaline. Whether you are stressed or busy, these processes can use the same hormones and nutrients. Thus it is important if you are busy and stressed or happily productive, to take care of yourself. Take time to breathe. This is a very simple breathing technique that I

frequently suggest in clinic. Close your eyes, put one hand on your chest near your heart. Consciously connect with your heart. Take a slow, quiet, deep breath in through the nose, and then exhale making a whoosh sound through the mouth. Do this 10 times. Focus on the sensation of the air entering the nose and leaving the mouth. Breathing in this manner helps to regulate the fight or flight hormones. Explore essential oils. All of our senses have the ability to affect the way we feel. A nice blend of oils to use in a spritzer or diffuser to calm and lift the mood is: lavender, frankincense, peppermint and orange. Get creative with herbs in the kitchen. Herbs have the ability to make any dish taste amazing. And plus they have the added medicinal benefits. I usually suggest picking a different herb bunch each week from the grocer or markets and try consuming them daily. A simple one to begin with is parsley. In naturopathic medicine, parsley is used to cleanse and nourish.

Therapeutic-Grade

Eat a colourful diet. By focusing on natural colour on your plate, this helps to remove the need to count the grams of nutrients on your plate. This is an easy tactic to use daily to gauge your nutrient intake. Brown tones for protein (meats, legumes, nuts and seeds), colourful veggies and some antioxidant loaded fruit. Create a bedtime ritual. Taking the time to wind down at night is really important for sleep quality. Consider choosing some nurturing herbal tea blends, turning off any bright lights, reducing TV time and instead read a book or colouring in (yes, adults can colour in too). All of these will help to regulate your stress hormones which help your natural energy levels the next day. Full transformations in health are more likely when simplified health practices that address all pillars of health are followed consistently over a long period of time. Consistency is the key. www.integratedwellnessclinic.com.au

Being the

in your own

WORDS RAELENE BYRNE

“There’s something magical about putting yourself into life. You’ve got to stand up and take responsibility for your own life and you cannot abandon that.” – Bill Kurtis

D

o you know what you really want for yourself? How do you want to feel each day? The number of times I ask that question and people will respond with… Oh, that is a good question. I don’t really know what I want at a deeper level, I am too busy working, or trying to get ahead, or, when my life is in order, I can work out what I REALLY want, then I will have time to follow my heart. Identifying what you want for you, not the material signs of ‘success’, but how you want to feel when you address life every day, will align you with a more abundant, expansive life as your personal vibration becomes a landing place attracting to you what is best aligned for your soul’s journey. This is where the magic of the creation process begins to take form.

When we have an energetic impulse in our brain, which we call thoughts, ideas, inspiration, it is only energy moving through our awareness until we pick up a pen and write that onto paper, magically, we have just birthed energy into matter. We have a word, or series of words in front of us. This then becomes our map, the starting point AND the destination for how we want to feel. The next steps are the most important, where you ‘magically’ manifest how you want to feel every day. You take action with awareness. Yes, that simple. How do I want to feel and what can I do to make that happen? The outcome is we get out of our way, we co-create with a higher intelligence or wisdom energy, by simply aligning and taking action. It will be challenging, because it becomes a responsibility to self. Every choice, thought, action, feeling, engagement comes back to how you

life want to feel and what you are willing to do for that to occur. Recently I asked a businesswoman what she wanted for herself. Her answer, “just something better”. What does that mean, could it be defined? This woman had no idea of what she wanted, in fact she had a life that I would like!!! As it ‘seemed’ WAY better than mine. We engaged in a process which delivered a list of qualities and virtues which she aligned with immediately, as she burst into tears saying, THAT is exactly what I want. We discovered her starting point, and her destination, the rest was up to her. The guidelines were clear, there was no confusion. There was only a certainty and confidence to create those new feelings. Once we know what we truly want as a state of being, magic is conjured to keep bringing this into our awareness and life. As the magicians of our own lives, all we need do is take action. www.raelenebyrne.com

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

The power of

aromatic medicine

WORDS RON GUBA

S

team distilled essential oils have been used for over a millennium for their healing benefits and especially beginning in the early 20th century, led by French physicians. Aromatic medicine is the therapeutic use of essential oils and aromatic extracts in the context of herbal medicine. In this regard, any route of administration may be utilised: oral ingestion, topical, vaginal, eye, ear, nose and throat applications, etc. An established tradition among French practitioners (medical and naturopathic), aromatic medicine tends to exploit the more physiological, dosedependent effects of essential oils. In France, where the use of ‘Aromathérapie’ has been most fully employed, has often been in the context of ‘Phyto-aromathérapie’, where herbal extracts (tinctures, spray dried extracts, etc) are used in conjunction with essential oils, which makes an excellent marriage of these healing modalities.

However, using essential oils, say for ingestion, is not the same as enjoying a strong cup of peppermint tea! Essential oils are highly concentrated as compared to an herbal tincture or tea. They are to be used in milligrams or a small number of drops, nothing like a full cup of tea. Hence, there have been two sides to the use of essential oils. On one hand, essential oils may be seen as uniquely ‘toxic’ or dangerous and therefore only used as fragrance or for application to the body in quite low concentrations, if at all. Obviously, a very safe practice, but not effective for many of the healing benefits that essential oils can offer. On the other hand, people have used various essential oils in large amounts, large enough to be toxic, as can be seen in the cases of eucalyptus oil poisoning in children over the years. Ingesting a teaspoon or more of this particular essential oil is far too much! In more recent years, some

unqualified people and sites have offered misguided advice on the ingestion of essential oils and more than one adverse outcome has been reported. The best outcome for those truly interested in all the healing benefits of essential oils, is to fully learn how essential oils can be used, so that they can be both safe and effective in their application. In study then, one would learn about the realistic therapeutic benefits and the safe and effective dosages for a wide variety of essential oils. As well, one would learn how to create the variety of applications that can be used, such as liquids with dispersed essential oils, capsules, rinses, pessaries, topical applications and more. If you would like to learn more about the practice of aromatic medicine, please contact the Aminya Natural Therapies Academy. www.aminyaacademy.com.au

p fr m b h lo o


At some point in my mid to late twenties, I experienced the beginning of my awakening. By ‘awakening’ I mean, I started to wake up to myself. My body literally could not handle the energy of my justice warrior any more and I knew things had to change. I had exhausted myself trying to save people – from others, from themselves; from this cruel world – thinking that I was doing it all for the right reasons. Thinking that I could absorb and hold the pain and that it wouldn’t affect me; so others didn’t have to feel it. But I was killing myself and not helping the other person either. In this ‘awakening’ I began to see my ‘saviour behaviour’ gave me a sense of purpose, it also gave me a sense of specialness, and superiority. I began to realise that amongst my martyrdom and resentfulness, that I was doing more harm than good. The thought of it now still makes me cringe and gulp. I was truly only serving myself with my sword and a mask. Fixing everyone else and their problems seemed to keep me distracted from worrying about my own problems; my own hurt and pain. However, my biggest “aha” was when I realised just how much I was distracting myself from love and purpose – from pursuing my own dreams and happiness.

This is when the miracle happened. From that moment forward, my life began to change; I began to change! From this moment, everything I wanted for years began to come in my life. It started slowly, but it snowballed, and it wasn’t long before I found my energy now giving everything to living my dreams and my purpose. There were two important things I learnt from all of this – 1. You cannot save anyone. You can sit with them, you can listen to them; you can even share your own experiences and perspective with them, but you can not take away their pain. That is for them and them only. That is their gift, which they must learn to transform themselves through. If you try and take away people’s pain by giving them money every time they are broke; bailing them out every time they are in jail; protecting them from the people that they really should be dealing with themselves, you are taking away the very things that they need to learn and grow stronger through. You cannot walk their path for them. They need to make their own mistakes, feel their own grief, anger, and uncertainty. 2. Your happiness is not dependent on others. How many times have you helped someone, thinking “this is it, they are going to do this or say that, or get

their act together now”, only to find one week, one month, one year later they are back in or still in the same position? You find yourself feeling cheated, resentful, drained and very betrayed because you are doing it out of conditional love. Conditional love will only take you so far, but generally leave you feeling resentful, angry and alone. You cannot do for others and expect them to act, love or behave in ways in return that is going to be pleasing to you. Happiness is not something that you can give another, nor can another give you! You cannot save anyone and you cannot be saved. If you are, you will only find more pain – more dramas; and that warrior coming out with her sword each and every day. Once you realise these two important points, you will free yourself from buying into karmic relationship patterns – going round and round in circles continually fighting battles, feeling misunderstood and victimised. You will enjoy love with others where each person is responsible for their own self and happiness; where you are free to be happy at any time without the dependence on someone else’s actions or words, and without the pressure of being responsible for someone else’s happiness. www.highvibrationcity.com.au

yler Tolman is wowing his audience during a stage presentation on the Gold Coast. He’s explaining how and why our diet and body’s portals of elimination lead to, and indicate good health, or otherwise. Deadpan, he suddenly raises an arm in the air, burrows his face smack into his armpit, and takes a long, loud inhalation. Then with a huge grin, he exhales and triumphantly confirms, “and that’s why my armpits smell like… fresh strawberries!” The crowd erupts with laughter. Again, yet another gem of a teaching is brilliantly conveyed with Tyler’s typical tenacity and trademark transparency. Tyler Tolman could well be one of the funniest guys you’ll ever see on stage. His stand-up routine, Swiss watch timing, delivery and high octane/adrenaline-

charged performances showcase shear comic genius. Think of legends like Jim Carrey, Jerry Lewis, Chris Rock, Robin Williams et al, and you’ll get an idea of the firebrand style that is Tyler Tolman. However, unlike these legends, side-splitting humour and punchlines are definitely not Tyler Tolman’s main attraction; they’re just a nice bonus. Tyler’s overarching message is way more serious, profound, and urgent. His teachings are dramatically relevant to these exciting, awakening times. Tyler is a world-renowned speaker, entrepreneur, practitioner, media personality, and event facilitator of all things related to health, wellbeing and success. He is also a loving, devoted husband and father, and is powered by a lifelong, almost insatiable desire to usher in a worldwide appreciation, understanding and application of powerful healing modalities, brought into modern being through the fusion of

modern science and ancient wisdom. Background, qualifications and experience? For starters, he is the legendary Don Tolman’s son. That kind of lineage and shared DNA is impressive, but it does not define Tyler. While he’s clearly a chip off the old man’s block, Mr Tolman 2.0 is a 100% stand-alone guy. Don agrees: “Tyler’s not standing in my shadow… he’s keeping that torch brightly burning and taking it to new levels.” Tyler has spent decades travelling the world devoting his life to studying, unearthing and applying ancient and new teachings and healing modalities. Today, his world-renowned techniques and technologies impart healing outcomes that mainstream medicine can only describe as impossible, inexplicable or downright miraculous. A committed vegan, qualified iridologist, voracious researcher and fasting expert, Tyler has a special fondness in his heart for Australia www.holisticblissmagazine.com

and our citizens. Moreover, he doesn’t feel uncomfortable, legally or ethically, in using the word ‘heal’ when describing his treatment outcomes. “Australians spend in excess of $140 billion annually on treating symptoms…” he rues, “Most of us have grave suspicions of medical /pharmaceutical industries that we are just too afraid to question. “According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, currently one in two Australians will be diagnosed with diabetes or cancer in their lifetimes.” On the subject of cancer, Tyler is a dynamo. His explanations about the origins, the ‘hows and whys’ of cancer, how and why the disease proliferates, and why mainstream medicine dismally fails to treat it successfully, are profound, sobering and enlightening. Tyler is not grandstanding when he solemnly declares, “I know, in my heart of hearts, that what I’m doing, and what I’m teaching… will prevent any of us from ever getting cancer…” If you think this statement is grandiose, please spend some time online reviewing spectacular healing testimonials, from countless individuals throughout the world, who have applied Tyler’s modalities to their own chronic diseases and illnesses. In Tyler’s opinion, the “proof of a practitioner’s skill and wisdom rests with those he or she treats”. In Tyler’s case, he has amassed firsthand accounts of clients who have been successfully healed from diseases including (but not limited to) brain cancer, colon cancer, liver cancer, prostate cancer, Lyme disease, motor

neuron disease, obesity, hypertension, ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, diabetes and psoriasis. What is especially comforting, however, is that Tyler doesn’t take direct credit for any of these stunning outcomes. He is merely a teacher, mentor, conduit and/or facilitator. He makes the point with this ultimate ‘heal thyself’ truth: “Your body has all the answers! It’s time to return to truth… unfortunately some of the traditional medical techniques leave no room for your body to do what it needs to do – and that is heal itself.” The scope, breadth, variety and magnitude of Tyler’s services for the healing of humanity can be mindboggling; if ever one needed evidence of someone who means what he says, and says what he means, it’s there throughout his entire body of work! Tyler offers a variety of live events and healing retreats and you can join his free weekly email called ‘Tyler Talks’ to keep updated with all the regular ‘juice’. And you just may be inspired and empowered to create your own business after being part of Tyler’s webinar: ‘How to build your heal thyself coaching business’ at: https://go.tylertolman.com. Kath Orman is an accomplished Senior Financial Planner, and founder of Goals and Dreams Financial Planning, in Brisbane. Kath describes her firsthand experience with Tyler’s work: “Whilst attending my first ever Don Tolman Basecamp with my daughter Shelley, we were captivated as the ball of energy that is Tyler Tolman bounced onto stage. Tyler was running a 7-day juice

fast retreat in Bali and we made a snap decision to attend. OMG – what an amazing time we had! We experienced a variety of awesome fresh juices every day, gentle exercises on the beach as the sun rose, white water rafting, dancing and so much more. However, the extent of all the knowledge I gained during this time was profound. Learning so much more about the myriad of ways the body is able to heal itself, Tyler provided layers and layers of education that changed our lives forever. The world is so blessed to have Tyler Tolman carrying on Don’s wisdom, but with his own beautiful style, unique teachings, enthusiasm and vitality.” Paradoxically, all this golden information, while deeply profound, remains strikingly simple! For example, when Tyler challenges us, ‘to become our own physicians.’ He reminds us that one of our goals is to simply work towards ‘opening up’ the body’s four channels of elimination, namely: defecation, urination, respiration and perspiration. So, if ever we do notice the smell of ‘fresh strawberries’ around our bodies, it could well be concluded we are truly on the path towards achieving optimal health and vitality. Tyler Tolman’s work is downright revolutionary. Yet as stated it’s based on simple, accessible knowledge and technology that our ancient ancestors knew, practised and taught; with stunning results. Were it not for the likes of heroes like Tyler in our midst, there is every chance these transcendent teachings might forever have been lost in a haze of disinformation, ridicule and unfounded suspicion. Tyler is a man of many ‘labels’, but a favourite of ours is: ‘…a truth-teller, and one of the world’s leading authorities on health and longevity.’ George Orwell once wrote: “In a time of universal deceit – telling the truth is a revolutionary act.” Although we still live in deceitful times, peaceful revolutionaries like Tyler Tolman are here to help us continue pulling down the walls of lies, oppression and manufactured fear. You are indeed a truth-teller, Mr Tolman. Moreover, you are a man of healing! For all these gifts, and more, we gratefully salute you. www.tylertolman.com Holistic Bliss | AUGUST 2018 |

Have you been WORDS AMANDA MACKAY

D

o you feel bad about it or admonish yourself for it? So why do you think you don’t follow that dream, mantra or purpose statement you made? I’m sure you could list quite a few negative selfbeliefs when answering this question. You could start changing the habit with writing a list, making time available to create the task (even if you don’t quite get around to it anyway), seek advice from others, or watch a video on how to create change; there’s lots of things you could do, right? It could also be the decision you are attempting to make or the direction you’re heading towards is not in alignment with you. Your inner guidance is accurate, procrastination could be the best thing happening now! Tweaking how you approach a task to suit you, your integrity, your best way and what feels right to you, is all that it may take to get the job

experiencing procrastination?

done – other people’s expectations or ways don’t matter here and even your outdated beliefs from long ago can get an overhaul. What if procrastination is a good thing? Wow that changes things doesn’t it? It’s a different way of looking at an action that brings ease; transforming an idea is that simple. In year seven at school, we had an exercise where we had to record our voice. I was mortified by the way I sounded on tape. I believed everyone else sounded okay but not me, that was my idea, no-one else commented or was mean. This belief I created stayed with me, on video with my children (when they were little I would cringe when watching the playback). Last year I decided to make some meditation recordings, yes I procrastinated because of my voice, I felt uncomfortable releasing that out into the world, it was about my voice, though it was my belief about it.

This resistance however gave me the opportunity to reflect on my feelings about a long-ago-formed opinion. I started playing with recording my meditations, I could hear uncertainty and hesitation in the track. I tried it again, visualising talking directly to the people I wanted to reach, yes! The improvement was amazing it was all in the approach, improving my self-belief and just doing it. I’ve healed an aspect that was ready to change, created music for the benefit of others and further upgraded by kicking the opinion of a music teacher, long ago, who gave me a low grade! I wanted to create more than I wanted to stay stuck, it was that simple. Challenges are always going to present, so decide what you want, get innovative, produce those ingenious, original approaches. You can apply this to anything – that’s magic! www.amandamackay.com.au

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Selling your home –

it’s mindset magic...

WORDS KRISHNA EVERSON

I

f you’ve ever needed to sell your home, you know how stressful it can be. Making the decision, preparing it for sale, finding an agent, and open houses! Jacquie Lamb is a real estate agent with a difference, working with mindset, and additional tools such as numerology and Feng Shui to enhance the experience for both buyer and seller. I caught up with Jacquie to discover what impacts on the successful sale of a home, and what can be done to improve the outcome. Jacquie believes that the energy of a home, its number, and a seller’s subconscious mindset can be the culprit. She explains, “I’ve identified seven common blocks; one of the major ones can be the seller themselves. It may have been a family home and they’ve been there for generations, unconsciously or consciously there may be a part of them that doesn’t want to let it go. Another block may be the fear of moving

forward. They haven’t made a plan or they don’t know what is going to be happening next, they haven’t found a house or they have to move interstate. Those fears can put an energy block saying, ‘I know I put it on the market, and consciously I know I have to move, but there is a part of me that’s holding on.’” Energy and placement of furnishings can also impact on the way a home feels when a potential buyer inspects the property. “When we are drawn to a house, we have designed it the way we want to, with our own furnishings and everything. As sellers, we can put blocks around the house in terms of where we place furnishings so the energy is not flowing, such as entering a room and facing the back of a lounge. When people come to the open for inspection, they may be picking up on those energy blocks and feeling like, ‘Oh, it’s just not comfortable coming into this house, I feel like I’m not invited.’ When you’re

selling a home you want to attract the heart buyer, who is going to come in and feel that they can really picture themselves in your home. That requires getting rid of some of your energy blocks. The heart buyer is going to pay the amount that you want, they are going to fall in love with the place and be happy to pay,” she says. “I like to think that when we go to sell a home, we’re finishing a chapter in our life, and we are about to embark on a new one. We’re in transition. My aim is to support the seller through that process. www.jacquielamb.com

the

WORDS KRISTIE HAYDEN

I

nside every woman exists a powerful and potent feminine energy. This energy is our life-force; it inspires us to love; it provokes us to nurture; we are activated by this power. But, so many of us in our busy lives have forgotten how to connect within to tap into this vital element of being. Whether it is a struggle with fertility, menstrual issues, pregnancy symptoms, or anxiety about an impending birth, we need to remember this energy and reconnect with it. As women, we are vessels of love, and within this love, we hold ancient wisdom. We all have an inner spark that lights our lives. A spark which engages us to pursue our soul’s purpose and fuels our daily energy. Only when we tap into and engage this inner fire that we can start to connect to the

feminine energy true essence of ourselves and become empowered to live; to love; to feel alive. As women, we are the givers of life. Our spirit, essence, and sexuality should never be repressed or ignored. Women can hold trauma in our wombs, and too often we forget what it means to be a powerful woman: to enliven passion, creativity, sensuality. This is the gift of being a woman. With the use of meditation, breath, acupuncture, energetic kinesiology, vibrational essences, and essential oils, I have dedicated my practice to awakening women so that they can activate their inner fire and begin to inspire themselves with vitality and true inner and outer health. Emotions are energy in motion, and in our modern world, most of us have been told that expressing feelings

Dental care for your total wellbeing! We are holistic dentists because we recommend the treatment that will be right for your body. It means that in everything we do we consider the impact of it on your body and use only materials and procedures accordingly. For example, when we are removing amalgam we use a rubber dam, high speed suction and an IQair air purifier so you don’t swallow any of the material or breathe in any of the mercury vapour. It’s the dentistry for you if you care about your total wellbeing.

is taboo and frowned upon. As women we are imbued with juicy, emotionfilled hormonal energy, and when these emotions are suppressed, we in time become walking time bombs, never knowing how we will feel or who will cop the next fragile moment. We don’t have to live like that. We can learn to be in touch with our emotional bodies by processing and moving these emotions through our system without resistance. This is where the magic of being a woman exists. Being a woman is a blessing, not a curse. We are strong, capable and so beautifully feminine; let’s not deny this, let us awaken our womb’s song to help achieve the life we truly desire. Sing, dance, love, make love; make life everything we want it to be. www.awakenapotentlife.com

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Miracles come in all kinds of wrapping WORDS KATE M FOSTER

I

n my current life, I am always attempting to emulate my Mama. Her courage, kindness and the safe space she creates, are a constant source of inspiration. Her generosity and the unconditionality of her love, alongside the belief that she has in the goodness of the world, have set the bar high. She shows up in real life for others every day. Unafraid of hard work, she does what needs doing. She may also bake a cake, share a meal, bring flowers or write a note. My Mama taught me that intentions married with action change the planet. She is my bar of beauty and my reference for integrity. Even my own heartbeat changes a little when she walks in the room. Regardless of what is happening in my life, her presence means that everything is okay, or if it’s not okay, I have faith it will be at some

future point. I won’t ever be ready for her to leave, I want her to live forever. My Mum gave birth to me just before her eighteenth birthday, I am forever grateful for her courage that knows no bounds. She pioneered her way through raising me, any shame she felt about my early arrival never made its way to my heart. Rather, her faith and unshakable belief in my goodness paved a solid path of trust and possibility. She saw the gifts in my heart and encouraged me to pursue them, even when their sharing broke a little piece of hers. I will never be able to offer the world exactly what she has offered me, yet it is my unwavering intention to show up and do my very best to share a love that is whole, all consuming and utterly inexhaustible. In my journey of remembering

wholeness, love poked holes in me everywhere. I’ve realised that the divine has room for all my mess. I find it entirely humorous that after living my way through the messy chapters, it was my holes that led me to holiness in the end. It’s the same for you too. Your holes make you holy. My advice is to go about the adventure of finding your holes and inviting love to these places too. Love as the divine mother loves and may self-love be your resting place today. KATE is an author, speaker and therapist based on the Sunshine Coast in Qld. She travels worldwide guiding others to listen and trust their own hearts. This is an excerpt from her book ‘ An Invitation to Trust’ which is available online at www.katemfoster.com and in all good bookstores.

“She reminds me of

Wonder Woman!”

WORDS ANDREW DUDEK

T

his is a recurring comment from friends and clients about the versatile and gifted Reanne Goes, Brisbane-based healer, author and founder of AHA (Activate Healing Alchemy). It’s an accurate analogy. By day, Reanne is a surgical advisor, representing a cutting edge manufacturer of orthopaedic devices. The stakes are high in the pressure cooker environment of Queensland’s operating theatres, however, rewards are sweet when surgical outcomes return mobility, comfort and quality to a patient’s life. But when the sun sets and the weekends breeze in, Reanne seamlessly slips into her other healing personas! Firstly, she’s an accredited Bio Energetic Synchronisation Technique (B.E.S.T) practitioner; a powerful, non-invasive technology that allows our bodies to recognise, and then release, blocked/ repressed energies caused by negative experiences, memories or unresolved traumas. This modality, in and of itself, restores cellular and emotional balance, helping to remove a gamut of physical, mental and emotional afflictions.

Fourteen years ago, Reanne became the ultimate train wreck. She lost her younger brother to suicide. Thereafter her physical/mental/ spiritual health rapidly plummeted, and she thought every new setback, “was finally my new rock bottom”. Reanne had access to the best allopathic health care money could afford. “Ultimately, I was told nothing more could be done to help me. My whole life, my body, was ‘infected’ at every level; I was physically sick, suicidal, racked with guilt, grief and addictions. I had little hope left and, unbelievably, no medical prognosis. “But through a beautifully miraculous set of events, B.E.S.T entered my life. And, long story short, B.E.S.T allowed me to reclaim my life, health, balance and joy! After B.E.S.T, the techniques ERCS, then eDNA ( please see Reanne’s website for explanations ) impacted my life… and everything fell into place!” Reanne’s quest to help others selfheal also involves harnessing, then synergistically applying, a ‘hand-picked’ spectrum of contemporary and ancient

practices, all of which are complementary to her clients’ end goals. For example, she promotes orthomolecular medicine, such as high dose Niacin (Vitamin B3), Vitamin C therapy and other supplementation to normalise our moods, immune function and more. Switching gears (but still on track) Reanne will oftentimes draw upon the magic of the land and jungle, handed down by our own indigenous elders, Shamans and custodians of Mother Earth. Applying singing, smoking or drumming ceremonies, dance, music and more, negative energies in our auras, homes, offices or land can be cleared with spectacular results. Reanne’s website testimonials are an amazing read! If you or your loved ones have any physical, spiritual or metaphysical concerns, please call her for a chat – making miracles a natural part of your life is a lot easier than you think! www.activatehealingalchemy.com.au

action based on this new awareness. The choice to act then has an impact on relationships, with self and others. Avoiding conscious choice, we make decisions from a need to be loved, safe, hidden or right. The effect on relationships then offers us the choice to transform or not. That’s where things can start to feel rocky. Those around us are often thrown by the shifts and changes in us. The hidden gem here is the choice to shine, standing in our own light. Parallel to this is the choice to forgive self and those around us for not seeing the light sooner. The forgiveness process offers a gateway of choice to surrender. It’s in this space that we recognise the great I AM. My work with these choices has seen the birth of sprays that are guided formulations that can create a space around us, holding us true to each of those choices. The inner child – the

onsciousness. With over-use, this word’s meaning has become a little lost to us. What it really means is an awareness of one’s own existence, thoughts and surroundings, as an individual or collective. The more aware or conscious I am, the more choice I have. When we wake, we often notice that what we have believed to be true about our world, is no longer in alignment with our truth now – as an awakened soul. We begin to examine our beliefs and notice some of our old beliefs start to fall away. This exploration of belief is the basis of the Inner Child work I offer. Deleting self-sabotaging beliefs, usually created in our first seven years, leaves a space to consciously choose what we believe. Emotions usually rise and we have a choice to allow or ignore them. What follows is a choice to take

Sacred Pohutukawa – the choice to transform, Sacred Toi Toi – the choice to activate our light body, Mary Magdalene – the choice to speak up, and Ganesh – the choice to surrender. Miracles happen when we choose consciously. There’s a huge space to be our true, unmasked, unique and healed self – we literally shift the shape of our appearance as we lighten our load and fly.

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

The

perfect storm

WORDS ROB FOSTER

A

s if it was yesterday, I still remember my first experience attending a ‘Family and Systemic Constellations’ workshop. As I entered the room, I could feel the excitement, the fears and the anticipation. The deep desire and yearning to be free was palpably present in the room, even the gathering of such diverse humans seemed insignificant. We met as equals and a sense of anticipation filled the air as we took our seats ready to see what had been hidden for countless years, possibly even lifetimes. At the start of the session I was asked, “What would you like to take home with you today?” My reply was, “more peace and freedom in my life”. Tears fell on that day as long held entanglements dropped away, making way for a lightness of being and a new

clarity to enter my world, it all made sense now. I could see. What struck me most was how loyal I had been to my inherited traumas and old family agreements. I discovered so much of my suffering was just a symptom of a hidden past. Before that day I didn’t even realise that I was living my life in restrictive and inhibiting ways. I am forever grateful to the facilitator and the people that were there for me, I felt so safe, so held. Even today the gift and kindness from this experience walks with me into every workshop I run. The beauty we shared together helping each other to connect with something so brilliant, something that seemed so lost and unachievable only hours before, became the gift that I took home with me forever. A gift that I give to my children so that they don’t have to carry what has been passed down from generation to generation. Without even

knowing it, constellations and systemic work was what I had been looking for all along. Finally I arrived home to unshakable peace inside myself, I could rest in real embodied change. It was a gift of new life. We all carry a deep need to belong, to know the truth of where we come from and to have balanced loving exchanges in our relationships. It is a great privilege and honour for me to support and guide people to embrace and accept their greatest potential, so we may all be free, happy and peaceful.

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Mind magic WORDS SPIRI BUHAGIAR

T

he words ‘magic’ and ‘miracles’ are very similar in as much as they both cover events or happenings that are outside natural or scientific laws. In other words, things that happen that are unexplainable. There have been many great thinkers and philosophers throughout time who have spoken or written about miracles including biblical writings and many prominent scientists and medical professionals, including Dr Wayne Dyer, Dr Deepak Chopra, Dr Bruce Lipton and Dr Joe Dispenza. Science in medicine is a miracle to many people who suffer from diseases or pain, yet the belief that plants or needles can cure would have been heresy in times gone by when herbalists and healers were burnt at the stake. There are religious sites throughout the world that are visited by thousands of pilgrims annually who believe in miracles or miraculous healings;

their beliefs or faith are so strong that physical changes can be spontaneous. Today, there is so much evidence on mind miracles or mind magic in the sciences of neuroplasticity, neuroscience and epigenetics. Through these sciences, and through thousands of years of mental awareness/meditation, we know that brain patterns can change by mere thought and concentration. What is also becoming evident is that we are the placebo. In his book, ‘You are the Placebo’, Dr Joe Dispenza discusses the power of the mind and the mind’s capabilities. Through science and epigenetics, we are beginning to understand that what we think becomes our belief and then our belief becomes who and what we are. Epigenetics understands that our environment can have a direct influence on our cells and that, through cell command, changes occur our cellular

It is a common belief that our psychology has a direct influence on our physiology; conversely, the opposite is true: our physiology can influence our psychology. I truly believe that our minds are our own personal magic that are capable of creating physical and psychological miracles. As many holy books state, “so you believe, so you shall become”.

Teachings of Archangel Hamied

reating magic and miracles in your life is easy! The angels encourage us to call on them for information about, and for assistance with, our future path. They love us to ask for help with any concern, whether it be for all humanity or a car park at a grocery shop. As a spiritual teacher and healer, I am often asked by students if their requests take up too much of the angel’s time and ultimately take away help from others. Do not worry. Angels are pure energy of light and love that exist on a higher plane. They’re not ruled by linear time and can be in more than one place on Earth at once. They are available in seconds to help everyone who needs them. There is a way of asking for miracles such as a ‘healed reality’ to make everything smoother in your life. Just connect with the most powerful miracle creation angel – Archangel Hamied.

Channeled message from Archangel Hamied – I asked Archangel Hamied to share some of the miracle creation process with you: When it comes to miracles, this process will help you… First you must calm and clear your mind. Call on our loving presence and ask for Archangels Michael and Raphael to be with you. Now also Angel Metatron who is connected with the Akashic Records. Invoke me and see me as an intense white light in form above you, holding out a beautiful ball of light. Concentrate briefly on all your fears, cares and concerns and then place them now into this ball of light. Allow us to transform these problems and situations for you instantly. We use alchemy for this and indeed it is done in a flash of light. Now instead see your healed reality. This means to see your life as you truly desire it to be in the future. See all current situations and concerns resolved and yourself looking

very peaceful, joyful and healthy. Other details do not have to be exact, instead, allow us to form the future in a way that is best for your soul’s path. We say… If you desire to have wonderful friendships and relationships in your life, then see yourself surrounded by very many happy and loving people. Be flexible as to who they may be. Bring this picture towards you until it is very close and see things have already started to change. It is already happening in our world, so wait and soon you will see it manifest in yours. Do not waver from the outcome you desire or you will slow the process down. Your miracle will appear. Fear not dear ones, all is well. – Archangel Hamied Remember to use this process for everything we wish to create in our lives. The angels are there for us. Just ask! www.mysticuniverse.com.au

Holistic Business Profile:

financial planning is a miraculous experience!

WORDS ANDREW DUDEK

B

y virtue of what rare, enthralling force of nature does seeing, of all things, a senior financial planner become… a magical experience? Brisbane-based founder of ‘Goals and Dreams Financial Planning’, Kath Orman, is the walking, talking embodiment of the truism, ‘Magic Happens’. Most of us, understandably, view visiting a financial planner as a bland, perfunctory task; something we ‘should’ do, and at least it’s not as painful as seeing the dentist. But the moment one steps into Kath’s office, there’s an instant energetic elevation, a realisation that whatever is about to unfold, will be beautifully, permanently, transformative. And that’s exactly how Kath planned her business to be – multidimensional, holistic, supportive, delivering unsurpassed professionalism, advice and excellence. Her reception wall and ceiling are completely covered over with overseas postcards, from eternally grateful clients, basking in the successes of her advice. “I guess I’m just not the usual

financial planner,” says Kath, delivering a masterpiece of humility and understatement! “We help our clients achieve their goals and dreams, and we enjoy the journey. So many people have forgotten how to really live their lives, getting stuck in routines and delaying the important things that really matter. When my clients talk about ‘one day’, I strive to bring that ‘one day’ forward!” Holistic Bliss readers, especially, would appreciate the amazing arsenal of tools Kath has acquired, which explains how and why ‘Goals and Dreams’ is so uplifting and empowering. Hilariously, Kath’s office even has a large ‘whooshing’-sound-producing magic wand ‘in case of emergencies’! Being an Angel Intuitive, it’s only natural and fitting that Kath can weave miracles into our lives. She regularly practises reiki, and is a ringleader for the legendary Don Tolman. In addition, Kath is a trained, accredited facilitator for the Institute of Women International, where Kath runs workshops and retreats using a process called ‘Creatrix®’, which

helps women become free of negative, suppressed emotions and limiting beliefs. And as if all this wasn’t enough, Kath is currently adding the final touches to her soon-to-be-published book, ‘Attitude, Abundance and Action’. “So much of what’s in my book is what I love to share and impart with my clients”, explains the radiant Kath, a natural empath who savours the experience of recalling her clients’ stories of joy, and realised goals and dreams. “Recently, I had the pleasure of advising a very hard-working and stressed long-term client, that he can actually retire NOW – and not wait a further two years as he had thought. He got tears in his eyes and thanked me for giving him permission to help achieve that dream… so humbling.” Thank you Kath. Truly, you are a heaven-sent, senior financial planner… of miracles. www.goalsanddreams.com.au

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

The Business Chakra System WORDS MELANIE MIDEGS, Business Mentor/Web Designer

A

s you sit at your computer trying to wrap your head around social media, websites and marketing – I bet you any money, there comes a time when you look out the window and announce to the world in frustration, “All I want to do is my healing work!”’ Setting yourself up for success as a small business is difficult, and I find it is especially hard for the healers, therapists, coaches and spiritual mentors of the world. Why? Because you are the ones who are easily connected to your divine purpose (crown chakra), rather than the material world (base chakra). It was through my own frustrations as a Psychosomatic Therapist (practitioner of mind-body-emotion connection), that The Business Chakra System was born. As I sat out the front of my humble studio three years ago in Ubud, Bali, I had tears streaming down my face as once again, I couldn’t seem to attract the clients I needed. I took a deep

breath, composed myself and asked the question “What do I know really well?”… and the first answer that came to mind was the chakra system. I knew the base chakra in myself was all about feeling supported, vital and connected to community – and I had all of that. So why was my business still not working? …this then led me to think – what would the elements of my business base chakra be? And I came up with: • Clear goals • Ideal customer • Cash flow It makes sense right? If you don’t have a firm understanding of what you want to achieve, who you are marketing to, or the revenue you need coming in to support yourself… your business won’t flourish. The base chakra of your business will require a lot of your energy and nurturing for the first stages of your growth. Think of it as planting seeds… as the tree grows, so does its root

system underground. This is exactly what the foundations of your business need to be doing too, so that it can weather any storm. I would have to say, I find the most resistance from my clients when we work on their ideal customer. Oh my goodness! I’ve seen people squirm in their seat, back away from their computer and look at me with big, wide eyes when I’ve broached the topic. “But I can help everyone…” they say to me. I know you can help everyone… yet I also know that your business marketing, products, services and strategies won’t serve you if you try to do this. Trust the process and see the results. Take my free business chakra quiz via my website to see how energised your business base chakra is.

Are you getting enough

vitamin G?

WORDS JILLIAN EXTON

Y

ou may be well aware of the importance of a daily hit of vitamin D. Just as our sun above creates vitamin D in our body, we get an amazing gift from Mother Earth as well. Did you know that direct contact with the ground allows you to receive an energy infusion, I’ve heard it referred to as ‘vitamin G’ – G for ground. It’s a kind of ‘electrical nutrition.’ Consider the Earth an electrical planet, we are bioelectrical beings, functioning electrically and living on an electrical planet. All sounds a bit far fetched? Well, there is science behind it, proving there are many health benefits. Grounding or earthing works by utilising the Earth’s natural electrons to combat free radical damage in the body reducing inflammation that underlies many health concerns. Humans have walked, sat and slept barefoot on the Earth, since time immemorial, thus absorbing into our bodies the Earth’s natural electric energy, however modern life has served to disconnect us from

the Earth and its inherent healing properties, from the materials we use to build our houses and work places to the shoes we wear on our feet, in particular plastic/rubber or composite soles do not conduct the Earth’s electric energy. What is most profound about earthing (grounding) is that it is so natural and simple, and that it affects every aspect of human physiology. Research has shown that in seconds, the body’s physiology starts to change with muscles relaxing and stress dissipating. If you have a long-term health issue, results may take several weeks to be apparent. The bottom line is that some people experience earthing benefits quickly and for others it may take time, we are all different. Some benefits of earthing include: • Reduced or eliminated chronic pain • Improved sleep • Increased energy and vitality • Lowered stress and increasing calmness • Improved blood pressure • Relieved muscle tension and headaches

• Less hormonal and menstrual symptoms • Dramatically speeds healing time • Protects the body against environmental electromagnetic fields (EMFs) There are many ways to be earthed; swim in the ocean or lake, garden with bare hands, lay on the Earth, hug a living tree or wear natural leather-soled shoes instead of synthetic rubber/plastic shoes. Modern research on earthing has led to a demand for the development of conductive shoes, seats, sheets, mats, bands, patches, pillowcases and more for use indoors that are the equivalent of being barefoot outdoors. You can earth yourself anytime, anywhere with earthing products that are designed to utilise the Earth’s free electrons and the body’s natural healing intelligence. Grounding – do it as much or as little as you like. Find no/low toxic products and services on the Chemical Free Community|Directory: www.chemfreecom.com

MAGIC AND MIRACLES

Creating a sustainable space to

nurture the community and planet

WORDS WAYNE PINA-ROOZEMOND

A

bout 18 months ago spirit guided me and the others that work with me to take the concepts of the ‘You Can Heal Yourself Expo’ (which is about getting people to take responsibility for their own healing journey) to another level and get people to take responsibility for the planet’s healing journey. We wanted to acknowledge past practices and implement them into the future, and from this the ‘Awakening Festival’ was born. The concept of the festival is simple but complex, it is a three-day event where people can come along and learn and discuss how we can move into living in a more sustainable world. This extends to what the person in the city can do to what the person living on the land can do. So a community is forming for the betterment of the Earth. Our goal is to provide a venue where education and sharing of ideas is available in a safe environment and to

allow people to learn and expand their knowledge. This then gives them the confidence to pass on that knowledge, allowing the message to reach out and spread to others, showing them how easy it is to start protecting and healing Mother Earth. To bring these concepts more to life, the festival will include music, art, culture, talks, workshops and gatherings. We looked into all sorts of different aspects of the healing process for the planet, found a venue which was wonderful and suited everything we wanted to do and then moved forward to create our vision. One of the main emphasises of the festival is our traditional magic area, where all the traditional beliefs are explained and nurtured showing people how we once lived in harmony with our surrounds and nature and how by using this information, we can make and sustain a better tomorrow. Recently one of our team went to

the ‘Solstice Festival and Witches Ball’ in Brisbane, where she explained what we were doing with the festival and to see if we could get people excited about it. On numerous occasions she was asked what sustainability had to do with magic. Sustainability is not just about reduce, reuse and recycle (although they are important), it is also about living in harmony with each other, growing what we need, trading with our neighbour, re-engaging with our community, remembering the ways of the past, honouring them, believing in their power, so that we can build a better tomorrow by utilising the knowledge and traditions of our ancestors. We have had to postpone the ‘Awakening Festival 2018’ with great sadness due to circumstances beyond our control, but we look forward to a new venue and a greater emphasis on what our goals are in 2019, so watch out for us.

Everyone’s

perception of miracles

is different

WORDS SONYA DRIVER

T

o me, a miracle is almost like beauty, it’s in the eye of the beholder. It comes in two different ways: supernaturally and belief/action driven. For example, a supernatural miracle is something we really have no control over. Another miracle is the one we partake in. We lay the belief, add our vision and then do the work to cocreate the miracle. As a business mentor, here is my favourite miracle ‘work-over’ ever… One day I walked into a specular restaurant that was iconic to the area. The vibe and the look of the place shocked me. I had spent many special

occasions at this place. It held beautiful memories for me and also for many others. I instantly started talking to the owner and boldness came over me and I said, “this place is f#%$^&*”. Now normally I wouldn’t be so harsh, however that owner is still my friend and he brings it up all the time. He says it was a catalyst for change. They were losing money and had lost their mojo. They needed fresh fire energy and that’s what they got. So I got to work to help them grab hold of their miracle. Within a matter of months, the place was reborn and packed to the rafters. They were back! Yes, it was a miracle. I was so grateful I found a couple (without ego)

Would you like to guide and teach meditation?

who took my plans and advice and ran with it. They created the miracle! I was just a force that stood behind them and pushed and pushed. I ended up getting married in this restaurant eight months after the transformation. They call me their swearing angel. I’m not for everyone. I crave helping people create their own miracles. That was an active miracle. They were involved in it. Once they switched on and ran with me, absolute miracles happened. So be expectant. Be involved. Be a miracle in others’ lives and yours. I attract miracles. That’s my belief. I don’t settle for anything less. www.ecotan.com.au

Empowerment

through your own cycle

WORDS SHARON WOOD

W

ould you believe women have an internal tool that can help us embrace our natural rhythm of life and become intuitive to our emotional, physical, and social needs? Our menstrual cycle is a wonderful tool to connect and recognise how insight and intuition into this phenomenon can inspire you to take control of your life and embrace the power that is womanhood. Breaking down the shame around menstrual cycles is difficult, many don’t see the magic of the cycle as a gift, but more as a curse. This shame began many years ago. According to a research paper in Women & Health Journal, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, members of the medical profession in America began to view menstruation and other uniquely female functions as pathological – meaning they are caused by a physical or mental

disease. They considered a man’s body as normal, and women’s reproductive functions as signs of their inferiority. These harmful assumptions and misconceptions persist today. Emgoddess is about teaching women about the internal tool you have to help you navigate through each day. Why not use your cycle to your benefit? Why not ask yourself… what phase am I in today, what are the strengths at this time of my cycle? How can I use this information to enhance my relationships or do better in my business or solve a problem, maybe it’s a good time to address an issue or maybe reflect and think over it, rather than jump in? Our cycle is a gift. I know some days it may not feel like one, but most days it is. Each phase has a little tip, it has a strength and if you understand it, you can use this internal guide to make decisions that can truly enhance your health and well-being.

We just have to have a little bit of mindfulness around it each day and just be. This allows us to tune in and focus on where we are at and what we are feeling. Look at what you have to do for a particular day… is there something that could be better scheduled for another time? Because you could be more effective and have a better outcome by rescheduling. How can you start right now? Download the free Emgoddess chart (www.emgoddess.com.au) and start making a note of your cycle. Chart the day of the month, the day in your cycle, and what is happening for you. All the information is in my Emgoddess book. Within a few months you will see a pattern emerging and you will be able to then start to use this as a tool for planning ahead. Enjoy! www.emgoddess.com.au

Profile of an essential oil: WORDS KIM MORRISON

I

mmortelle is steam distilled from the yellow flowers of a small aromatic shrub that grows on cliff tops in the Mediterranean, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is an exquisite oil also known as ‘everlasting’ and ‘helichrysum’. The name helichrysum comes from the Greek word helios (sun) and chrysos (gold). This is because of the way this beautiful plant flowers, which can look a lot like masses of little golden suns. The yield is quite low. It takes a tonne of these flowering tops to produce up to 1.5 kilos of essential oil, which is why it costs around $300 for just 10ml and why adulteration is common. Immortelle is relieving, soothing, clearing and balancing and thanks to its unique chemical composition and some unusual sesquiterpenes not found in other essential oils, it has amazing wound-healing abilities. Used in a massage blend, immortelle can help relieve oedemas, bruises and reduce scars and stretch marks. This also makes it an ideal addition

in skincare, for it has remarkable antiageing abilities, and is particularly helpful for more mature and dry skin. Added to rosehip oil, it is remarkable in helping to reduce post-operative scarring and cosmetic surgery healing. And as the name suggests, immortelle is said to be for the young at heart and eternal youthful appearance regardless of age. In herbal medicine it has been used to help calm chest conditions like coughs, colds, bronchitis and asthma. It is also beautiful alongside oils like eucalyptus, pine and lavender; it is a perfect choice for a hot water steam inhalation. There is nothing quite like the good old-fashioned breathing over a bowl with a towel over the head to relieve such conditions. A steam inhalation using immortelle also helps to sweat the skin and support rehydration. This pale-gold coloured oil is known to contain ketones that are renowned for their anti-inflammatory abilities. This helps with muscle aches and pains and combined with German chamomile

Immortelle

and lavender it can help relieve muscle inflammation and injuries. Immortelle has highly anti-microbial properties which is what helps it to heal wounds. Three drops added to a teaspoon of Manuka honey applied externally would help with reducing the pain from burns, bites and stings. It also acts as a stimulant for the liver and is a good oil to use when on a detox. For emotional support, this oil when diffused or used in a massage can help reduce stress, grief, heartache, insecurities, negativity and worry. From a research in aromatherapy point of view, immortelle is fairly new and really only came to the fore in the early 1990s. But with its remarkable attributes as one of the best oils for inflammation, treating acute and chronic conditions and for its skin healing and regenerating properties, it is now considered one of the most precious and highly regarded oils on the market today. www.twenty8.com

When is our

spinning ball Earth

WORDS ANDREW DUDEK

A miracle is an event which creates faith. That is the purpose and nature of miracles. Frauds deceive. An event which creates faith does not deceive: therefore it is not a fraud, but a miracle.” – George Bernard Shaw. Why, Why, WHY… would ‘they’ lie to us about the shape and nature of Earth?!! This utterly reasonable question is the one most often advanced by heliocentrists debating their geocentric counterparts. It’s a profound proposition, and mature debate demands an inquisitive, critically open but sceptical mindset; so it’s assumed that any serious researcher of this phenomenon has already studied at least some of the scientific arguments on both sides. Remember that picture of the Milky Way galaxy with the big red arrow pointing to a spot with the caption: “You Are Here”? In other words, amongst billions and billions of stars, planet Earth is a grain of sand on the beach… altogether pretty insignificant in the whole scheme of things. This,

not a globe? Part II

we can all agree, is today’s mainstream scientific consensus. Mainstream science goes even further. We are merely products of a random cosmic explosion that happened long ago. There is no proof of God. There’s no ‘Creator.’ There is no proof of a ‘soul’ and there’s no proof of any life after physical death; it’s simply ‘lights out!’ This is the ‘Gospel’ according to science; the complete opposite of our spiritual impulses, religious beliefs, faith in a divine ‘intelligence’, or belief in an eternal connectedness with all things. This would explain why countless flat-earthers report experiencing an emotional, spiritual rush of euphoria once they’ve crossed their own personal threshold of doubt, into acceptance and realisation (like in ‘The Matrix’ movie, when Neo finally perceives ‘reality’ through the veil of illusion). Suddenly, the earth, stars, sun, moon and this entire ‘realm’ are consciously created, and brought into existence by something… intelligent! Of course this is as The Bible, and other holy scriptures, describe creation. It’s also

our cosmological reality according to countless mystics and ancient cultures. Astrophysicist Neil de Grasse Tyson refuses to publicly debate anyone who believes the Earth is a stationary plane. Nicola Tesla described ‘gravity’ as one of the most preposterous theories ever conceived. NASA have very recently officially admitted to ‘losing’ their Apollo data, and ‘destroying’ the technology they once had in order to travel to the moon. Mainstream science tends to support the likes of Stephen Hawking, who promoted an atheistic, nihilistic world view. Nevertheless billions of humans still adhere to, and revere the notion of a divine, unconditionally loving Creator. If, as George Bernard Shaw has expressed, faith does not deceive, then the choice between godlessness and miracles, might possibly bring some of us closer to knowing the answer to that question: “Why?” (Written in loving honour of our beautiful and sacred Mother Earth.)

The Baby Unicorn Manifesto

Read Me First

AUTHORS Dr Dain Heer and Katarina Wallentin

AUTHOR Lisa Stephenson

Inspired by the birth of a friend’s daughter, Dr Dain Heer came up with the idea of ‘The Baby Unicorn Manifesto’ as a reminder of the unlimited potential we each carry into this world at birth. The story is co-authored with Katarina Wallentin and the illustrations are done by Nathalie Beauvois. Together, they hope to inspire generations of baby unicorns by questioning what we believe is possible. “What if children were told they are a gift from the moment they are born? That they can be and do absolutely anything they want? What if children where told daily how grateful we are for their existence? What could they create then? What would be possible then?” Heer suggests. Wallentin agrees. “If I could gift my daughter one thing, it would be for her to know, without a shadow of a doubt, that she is not only enough; she is unique, perfect, amazing and so loved. It seems so basic, and yet, that knowing creates magic. Big magic,” she says. Easy to read and exquisitely illustrated, The Baby Unicorn Manifesto is about the magic and possibilities on our beautiful planet, where we are only limited by our imagination. A must-read on any child’s bookshelf!

Global speaker and success coach Lisa Stephenson draws upon decades of experience helping people all over the world achieve success (in its many forms), to provide a guidebook for those looking to create positive personal change. Uplifting, practical and filled with personality, it empowers readers with the tools they need to coach themselves to a brighter future.

NATURAL ANIMAL CARE

Sibling rivalry and family feuds - can we make a social change? WORDS DR GARRY BRIGHT, Veterinary Surgeon, Acupuncturist

C

onsciousness is basically our key to everything; health and wellbeing is part of that. We all want to feel well. A natural reaction is to avoid situations that create those awful feelings. One way to deal with these awful feelings is to make sure we have no connection to them e.g. if it’s a food, we avoid it, if it’s a toxic relationship, we cut it off. My personal feeling is, this is okay to make us feel good, but it does nothing to resolve the underlying consciousness. So personally, I look to see what those foods/relationships are doing to me, to understand what kind of judgments I am making of myself. At the end of the day consciousness, is all about how you are judging yourself. I am not loveable: which leads to the consciousness of desire/anger and grief which is often associated with the rejection of courage/love and peace, occurring in the heart energy centre. So how can we make a change? My biggest concern is how we relate to one another within our families. Why is it that our family can switch on our buttons? This may result in fighting amongst

siblings and dysfunctional relationship between kids and parents. These are all matters of the heart. I have come to understand what this switch is – it’s a change of polarity in an acupuncture channel. Thus, in the fight response, an acupuncture channel is changed to negative and south pole polarity. I have created a device that can diagnose this polarity and music in an app that changes this polarity. Changing the polarity is my definition of what healing is all about. The negative polarity causes the

state of consciousness/the state of consciousness causes the polarity change, which becomes a chicken and egg situation until you start to look at the judgments you are making about yourself, others and your life path. Only once you take responsibility for the judgment you are making, do you release yourself from the merry-goround. Obviously in my field, the consciousness of owners affects their pets. Thus, a consciousness of grief may lead to many conditions including allergies and cancer, providing there are a whole set of precipitating circumstances. However, my deep passion is to help families with their sibling rivalries and personality clashes. As such, I am offering free diagnosis and healing for families. I only ask that we can video the pre- and post-healing so that we can share the changes in social media and create a tidal wave of change. www.maplestreetvet.com.au Download the app: Android: www.goo.gl/DUAfn3 iOS: www.goo.gl/F6JHbg

NATURAL ANIMAL CARE

Are your emotions impacting your pet’s life? WORDS JANE GORTON

M

y main purpose in setting up my business, ‘Mrs Doolittle’s Pawfect Harmony’, is to help people and animals better understand each other. When people are able to talk to their animals, they are able to understand their needs and wants, what is bothering them or what makes them happy. The animal in turn can better understand the human perspective. While I am able to talk to the higher self or soul of an animal, the modality I use (Theta Resonance At All Levels) allows me to also do

energetic healings on an animal and their guardian. It is like a three-way conversation between Creator, the animal, the guardian and I am the translator. I am able to clear any traumas or support any physical or emotional issues or grief the animal or the owner may have. Often the issues the animal has, are as a result of how, we as their guardians, are coping with life. The majority of animals I work with are dogs and cats, as they are a direct part of our everyday lives. It has recently become like a big beacon of light to me just how much we impact each other’s lives. How we are coping, our belief systems and how we treat our pets, directly affects their wellbeing. Dogs and cats take on our emotions and many of our issues. In simple terms, you have had a bad day at work, have a million things to do when you get home and then think, ooh I must walk the dog. You have come home cranky, made the dog get in the car when they hate the car and made them walk alongside you really fast

instead of allowing them to sniff and enjoy the walk. We have all done this, I put it out there – was the dog’s wellbeing really being considered? Yes you ‘walked the dog’ however, it is important to consider how your actions are impacting the animal in your life. They innately take on how we are feeling. Sometimes, just sitting in your backyard with your dog is just as healthy. It is win-win, you get to de-stress in nature and your dog is doing his favourite thing – hanging with you. Animals do have emotions, but not necessarily a voice, so it is imperative to their wellbeing to be aware of how your emotions are impacting their life. My vision as an animal communicator and energetic healer is to be the voice for the animal and help humans understand and work through their own stresses and issues that are not serving them well. When we understand ourselves and realise we are all so connected that our actions impact all around us, we can make changes and work towards Pawfect Harmony. www.mrsdoolittlespawfectharmony.com

NATURAL ANIMAL CARE

Minimal vaccination protocols WORDS DR RENEE O’DUHRING

A

t The Natural Vets we practise holistic veterinary medicine, and one of the questions we often get asked is, “What is it that you do differently to regular vets?” One of our points of difference would be that we advocate for minimal vaccination protocols, which means individualising the protocol to suit each patient, giving only the vaccines they require based on their lifestyle, location, age and health status. Did you know that the AVA (Australian Veterinary Association) no longer supports annual core vaccines? They recommend all pets be vaccinated on a three-yearly schedule for core diseases – like parvovirus in dogs and cat flu in cats. We take this one step further and incorporate titre testing into our vaccine protocols. This means taking a small blood sample from your pet, which we analyse to check what their antibody status is. This helps us to determine what their current level of protection is for many of the diseases routinely vaccinated for, and also whether or not they are actually in need of any booster vaccines.

Minimal vaccine protocols ensure your pet is protected against the diseases that we can vaccinate for, without overvaccinating your pet and putting them at increasing risk of adverse reactions. There are many side effects associated with excessive vaccination, the most typical including: fever, stiffness, sore joints and susceptibility to infections, but even neurological disorders including seizures, autoimmune disease causing red blood cell breakdown or bleeding episodes, and liver or kidney failure can all be triggered by vaccines. Certain breeds or families of dogs appear to be more susceptible to adverse vaccine reactions, and vaccines that include more than one agent can overwhelm a pet who is immunocompromised (or even healthy animals with a genetic predisposition to react in an adverse manner). The recently weaned young puppy or kitten being placed in a new environment may be at particular risk. Our typical protocol for puppies includes only two core vaccines, followed by a titre test at 16 weeks of age, when a single intranasal vaccine for kennel cough is administered if necessary. If they

pass their titre test with flying colours, we then titre test again 12 months later, and then again every three years. Almost all puppies pass their titre test at 16 weeks of age, and it is very rare that an adult dog needs a core vaccine booster based on titre test results – they continue to demonstrate a protective immune response once they have mounted a full response to previous vaccines. So when the time comes to visit your vet for their next ‘booster’ vaccine, remember the potential for vaccine side effects, and ask them about the option to titre test instead. Note that if your dog requires kennel cough this vaccine still needs to be administered on an annual basis, and all pets need a health check at least once a year. www.thenaturalvets.com.au
