Earth Blessings

Image
Description We can see from the floods, earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic eruptions and pollution disasters that our earth is disturbed. Not to mention the political upheaval that blights the planet. However, the Earth herself has given us tools that assist in stabilizing the situation and which teach us how to turn our thoughts and actions towards positive healing for the planet rather than envisaging her destruction. Crystals offer us creative solutions. Some amazing high-vibration crystals have made themselves known at this time to assist with Earth healing and with personal consciousness-raising. Other Earth healing crystals have been around for millennia but still do a sterling job of restoring the environment and the earth beneath our feet to optimum energetic functioning.   Review As both a spiritual teacher and an energetic healer, I was really intrigued by this book.  I have always been interested in crystals, but felt intimidated by all the information out there.  It

Chakra7 System

Image
Website Review   Carol Tuttle has amassed a wonderful array of knowledge on her website.  There are articles, meditations, and various other things to help balance the chakras. However, the meat & potatoes of the website is truly her Chakra7 System.  This system helps the user work through each Chakra independently in order to release blockages.  As an experienced Spiritual Healer, I have to say that the information presented was excellent.  Each Chakra section has a workbook, a transcript of the videos so you can read along, several videos to watch, and even a script for you to read to help clear the blockages.  In the videos, Carol discusses what each chakra affects, how it can become blocked and what you can do to unblock it.  There are so many modalities to chose from when watching the videos.  She shows how you can use breathing, yoga, crystals, EFT, RET, colors, and many others in order to help yourself.  One tiny complaint that I have is that the video is grainy

45 Free Reiki Attunements

Image
Book Description   This book contains 24 free attunements to Usui Reiki, New Usui Reiki, Full Spectrum Healing, Lavender Flame, Silver Violet Flame, Karuna Ki, Kundalini Reiki, Imara Reiki, Green Tara Seichim, Golden Ray, Gold Reiki, Shamballa Multi-Dimensional Healing, and an Axiatonal Lines Connection. This book also contains 21 additional Ray attunements. Book Review   I have really mixed feelings about this book.  First off, I love the fact that he is including so many various Reiki attunements to a lot of different modalities. However, he does not instruct how to use the modalities.  Different modalities have different signs and symbols.  Some have prayers or special rites to perform prior to using them on yourself or a person you are healing.  Basically, you get a brief run down of what each modality is in essence.  And I mean really brief.  Then you get a page or two for each modality saying to read aloud a sentence saying you accept that attunement. Yes, I know

If you haven’t been to Sedona yet, this book will urge you to come to this blessed land.  If you have been to Sedona or even live there now, this book will only deepen love you hold for the wonders of the land.  Here you will find profound insights about making a true connection with your heart and nature, as well as much practical guidance for experiencing the spirit of Sedona. Book Review   This is a truly remarkable, thought provoking and enlightening book.  Not only does Ilchi Lee take you on a journey through the beautiful wilds of Sedona, but on a journey to your innermost self.  Many times we don’t stop to appreciate nature.  And even less times do we sto
