Treatment vs Cures

I recently watched a documentary on the history of psychiatry.

In the movie they asked many psychiatric professionals if they had ever cured a patient. Clear and across the board- “there are no cures”. No one has ever been “cured” by psychiatry. If I had never healed anyone as a psychic I would hang my head in shame and become a beautician or something. I certainly would not continue to take clients I knew I could not heal.

What is treatment for if not to help along an eventual cure? Was I “programmed”  incorrectly? As a society don’t we all think of Doctors as Healers? Does “Doctors are Healers” only become  inaccurate when speaking about the field of psychiatry? Who made psychiatry the neo god of pill prescriptions anyway? If you are not on drugs in America, I bet you know people who are. Think about how many people you know on drugs. Now compare that statistic to what it may have been only 50 years ago. “Vally of the Dolls” or “1984” – you tell me.

The psychiatrist admit openly there is NO (listen now!) There is NO chemical test to “test” for a chemical imbalance in the brain. NO TEST can tell you that you are bi-polar, adhd, manic, a sociopath… NO TEST.

So why all the brain scans, how come they tell me I need to take the drugs because I am chemically imbalanced? Hmm Good Questions even a Greek philosopher would want ANSWERS too :).

Personally I have made a choice to care for myself in holistic and natural ways. I will accept medical treatment if I have too, however I will not seek it.

I am undertaking the practice of listening to my body, mind, heart and spirit in deeper and clearer ways. I am trusting my guides when making spontaneous  choices about diet and exercise. When I am asked to go for a walk- I say yes regardless of how I feel about it personally :). My goal with diet is to eat more spice, less red meat, and “happy food” which is organic without chemicals. The fake sugar seems to be an issue for me- any suggestions on an alternative?

I am working on my finances to afford this decadent “health” food. Having to work harder so I can eat better reminds me of the movie “Soylent Green”… if you’ve seen it you know what I mean.

I feel as an uninsured American I have no choice but to revert to the “old ways” of being healthy. Exercise, eat well, make love, laugh, express, explore and pray. Sounds like a good plan to me.

How do you feel about these subjects- and why? Comment below.

It’s the new Mother Nature taking over

Yesterday Christopher Asked: How would you interpret beings like land spirits? Are they non-physical beings separate from ourselves or symbolic representations created by our own minds to help us interpret a local energy?

Hello Christopher, nice to hear from you. I do remember your wonderful herms and offerings to the earth. I took the liberty of sneaking onto your “myspace” page to grab some of your pictures. I would never be able to describe what you do with words.

Christopher works with the “Nature Spirits” of the elements to heal and nurture our mother Earth. My first exposure to nature spirits were Fairies, goblins, trolls or just about any creature in the Lord of the Rings. I learned these “Elemental Energies” can be placed into 4 classes of distinction – Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. When I began to learn about Reiki I was taught there are large nature spirits called “Devas”. Devas are more “archetypal” energy compared to say a fairy – meaning fairies have more individual personalities, while Divas are an “intelligent presence”.

I have experienced communication with both fairies and Devas. There is no doubt in my mind that I was talking to an intelligence “outside” myself. There is no problem having the experience of communicating with a presence. The problem comes about when we try to explain our experience. I am sure you will agree.

I have come to understand that the nature spirits and Devas are existing on a “higher plane” (Much like spirit guides), above our limited third dimension. Those people who have the ability to shift their Awareness (consciousness) to a higher plane- can and do communicate with a myriad of non- third dimensional intelligence. In simple terms, our physical senses are limited to what the body can perceive. Our consciousness is unlimited.

Christopher I imagine what you feel when you are communing with the Earth. I bet you have had those blissful, sacred, holy feelings, and possibly some visions as well.

Many people have come to this particular time in Human/Earth evolution to give back to our planet in healing ways. Those who choose nature healing as a path are usually endowed with “special skills” such as communication with nature spirits and keys to other realms (non third dimensional time/space). I myself have been entertained in the lush green forest of the fairies.
