Faith and Science

When faith and science began to merge together astrologically about ten years ago (btw I know little of astrology but do keep some fine company that are experts in this field), it was as if everything changed overnight.   For the few of us that worked in the realm of wellness and the healing arts and had long known the links between nature, science and the esoteric philosophies of most religions this acknowledgment came with a great sigh of welcomed relief.

The Dalai Lama was suddenly placed up there in the academic field with the physicists of the world and was brought into great discussions and experiments utilizing his knowledge and expertise on meditation, the importance of faith and acceptance of universal laws to find true lasting happiness.

For so many years the healing arts and associated modalities of acupuncture, massage, aromatic medicines, natural remedies and prevention were seen as woo woo and without merit or credibility. Again overnight we wellness practitioners were suddenly being welcomed into the more open minded hospital wards to bring our warm healing touch and old world remedies.   Simple, wholesome, healthy preventative measures and modern medicine coming together to serve body mind and spirit. 

I myself ran a small wellness and spa program in Malibu and able to take my small child to work with me to play on the beach and watch the dolphins while I worked my own magic. To be able to create a work environment conducive to motherhood was a great gift. 

I am writing about this as we continue to move into the Aquarian age and to experience these great changes, not that I have a choice.  Being connected and information is where we are right now.   I have to remind myself of the great things that are happening.  It is easy to get jaded and lose faith when things change so drastically, it can be hard to keep up and keep your sense of the simple real values in life. Each time change happens we have to surrender to the truth of what is. What is doesn't always match the way we would like it to be.

Schools sometimes get bogged down by the bureaucracies they must serve.   By attending such schools we can tend to get "stuck" in that belief system.  Its important to trust your own inner wisdom and then back it up with some education in the field.  However it is experience and truly listening to each individual to attain results that defines us as wellness practitioners.

Today I am looking into new oils from the Amazon for some of my new scents that I am working on. I am grateful to be able to work in America and have access to scientific minds now open to work with people such as myself and work with age old nature which remains when all the astrological ages and people within in them disperse to the ground of all things.

Faith, science and nature truly have come together. We are living in challenging times of adaptation.  We need the courage to surrender to our own true nature and the way things are.  Here is an interesting link to an astrology article I found today.  http://return2thesource.wordpress.com/2011/01/  Please contact me if you are interested in any of my wellness treatments listed on my blog on my Menu of Services page.

Oh Yeah! Get in your Skin!

I love this track featuring Ulysses Perez and Buffalo Brown two of my favourite Miami musicians.

When it comes to music you know its good when it makes you feel right at home.  Good to be in your skin.  When it gives you goosebumps, makes you want to move, kiss, make love.   You know its good when you want to rewind and listen to a part over and over again.   Ok its great to tool around on Facebook and connect virally.  When was the last time you got into your SKIN.   

Get out and dance, sweat and feel your skin soften under the Miami moon.    OH Yeah!

Inside the Skin of A woman

She walked in beauty through the night

and held her face up to the light, never thinking at the time

No it never crossed her mind

Just 5 minutes in a stranger's bed ..just long enough her youth deceived

and left her with a mouth to feed

So much more to her skin so deep, so much more than a fading beauty

If you look beneath you will see

Inside the Skin of a Woman

She left all of those she knew

thought there was something better she had to do

like embarrassment makes beautiful the shade of rose

so with the vulnerability she exposed

shes so much more than her skin  so deep

much more than a fading beauty if you look beneath you will see

Inside the Skin of a Woman

Now her babies have left home

she feels invisible and all alone

so much more than this skin so deep

much more than a fading beauty

If you look beneath you will see

Inside the skin of a woman

TODAY'S SKIN CARE REMEDY- #iAmSpa~^~

The Skin is an organ that reflects what we feel inside.  When our organs our sick.When we are off balance or we do not eat right our skin will let us know.

I am a big believer in the old remedies.  My girlfriend called me in a panic, "my face is falling off, it's burning". She had just put a very potent essential oil on her face undiluted.  Her face was burning and getting red and raw by the second.

I had her find some oats and a stocking, fill the stocking with the oats... soak in warm water... when the oats became milky, squeeze the milk and it apply all over her face.  The burns were gone and skin soothed within 20mins.

This is an old remedy. You can fill a stocking with oats and tie it to your bath faucet... let the water run over the oatmeal to make a beautiful milk bath.  All of the expensive colloidal products you find in the pharmacy are derived from oatmeal.

This remedy is also great for diaper rash, dry skin, and makes a wonderful face mask when you add egg and honey.

Enjoy.

Songs of Byzantine Flowers

I loved this one live too.... our shows were very ahead of their time.... very theatrical.

this is another one...for the Film Spirits of the Air Gremlins of the Clouds
a film by Alex Proyas.   This one won a few awards.

Blast from my past 1989 SPK

SKIN

Skin is a living breathing organ... affected by our emotions.

It is the largest organ of the body.   It feels, senses and detects... eg "makes my skin crawl", "that feels wonderful", "tickle my back"

The skin has a colour and a texture.   Judgments are made based on the colour of our skin.   How did that ever happen?

My father and I searched along the river banks for aboriginal cooking sites, cave drawings and empty shells once hunted and gathered by the local people, when I was a child.    Why did I not know one single aboriginal person in our community?.  I only saw aboriginal people down the coast and off the beaten track.   Aboriginal folklore and my father's fishing stories filled me with wonder and a feeling of being at home.    I didn't feel at home in the suburbs, I felt more at home in the Australian bush.... following the pathways of the ancient people that were there long before me.

This was the beginning of my journey into the study of herbs, flowers and plants, music and anything other than the world of television, stereotypes and school.   My secret world, introspection and reflection.    I want to thank my parents for allowing me to wander independantly and alone as a child to venture into nature and use my instinctual powers and skills.  These skills have made me the person I am happy to be today.

Take care of the skin you are in both on the inside and outside.   Go out of your way to experience someone else's culture.. taste their food, visit the markets. Open up your heart to a whole new world.

Today's recipe is simple and for the inside to make your skin glow.

Boil parsley and two cinnamon sticks, simmer and add a little raw honey.

Drink the tea for beautiful soft glowy skin.
