Removing rocks from the stream.

I recently had the pleasure of attending an excellent talk by Author, Colm Tobin. Amongst a number of other inciteful issues, he spoke about a time in his life when he recieved help from the Psychiatrist Ivor Browne, to face and process the loss of his father. Ivor Browne likened this work to removing a stone from a previously flowing stream – a stone that had stopped the stream in it’s tracks and forced the water to either alter it’s course or sometimes stop all together.

The traumatic events that we do not process healthily, that we do not truelly experience and feel, become like these rocks and although we think ‘oh that was years ago, I have dealt with all that’, if we haven’t really felt the feelings and learnt to get through them and continue on our way, they have a habit of remaining until we do so, and they can take alot of our energy to keep them in their place. Also our ‘flow’ is slowed, diverted and diluted. In order to learn from all our life experiences we need to actually experience them in the first place, sometimes this is just too painful to contemplate, so we tidy the event away into a drawer and we develop all sorts of clever strategies for not getting it out and really looking at it.

Health Warning – do not drink Irish Tap Water!

The Mandatory addition of the toxin Fluoride to the Irish people’s tap water supply has long been of concern to me, particularly as someone who has a history of Thyroid dis-ease. If you have any interest at all in your Health, you will be aware of the importance of hydration from good, clean water, let me underline that this does not include the addition of neuro-toxins like Fluoride! For this reason I invested in a reverse Osmosis water filter system that filters most toxins out of my tap water including Fluoride and I always choose bottled water when drinking outside of my own home. I recently visited Berlin for a few days and was delighted to learn that the tap water there is not Fluoridated or Chlorinated and as far as I am aware Berliners are not particularly high in tooth cavities! Ireland is one of the very few countries in the world to insist on Fluoridating the public water supply despite mounting evidence of it’s toxicity, why is this?

Modern Day Healers.

Not so very long ago, I would probably have been burnt at the stake, (and there are those who would still like to do that to Healers like me ……… or maybe it’s just me??!!haha). These days we are just given a verbal ‘roasting’ from time to time by Skeptics, Fear Mongers and Bigots who base their criticism largely in ignorance, Blind Faith (in Pharmaceutical Medicine) and pure Malice.   But are we – Modern day Healers – in fact, treated any differently from the Wise Women (and Men), Shamens, Herbalists and Healers of days of yore who stood in the way of larger enterprises touting ‘Modern’, ‘Scientifically proven’ methods of Healthcare, often from highly toxic materials but with expensive and well marketed campaigns behind them?   Why has the very term ‘Healer’  become synonymous with ‘Charleton’ or ‘Quackery’ instead of its true literal meaning – why is it that ‘Healing’ or being ‘Cured’ is seldom used in association with Pharmaceutical Medicine? Have we just accepted that if we are ill we do not ever get cured or healed, simply managed for the rest of our days with drugs??
