To John Ivison at The National Post: I was outraged as I listened to CBC Radio One’s December 7, 2009 edition of "The House" and hear host Kathleen Petty focus exclusively on the non issue of Senator Joseph Day’s loyalty or lack of it toward Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff rather than pursue in detail why Senator Day (a lawyer by profession) saw fit to challenge and amend Bill C-6.

Traditional Chinese Feng Shui is based on the study of balance and harmony, in both an internal and external sense. From the time when Feng Shui first came into existence in China, 5000 years ago, the study of geomancy was based on land forms and structures that were oriented according to the magnetic North/South compass directions. In those days Feng Shui was used for the purpose of locating the best burial sites (Yin Feng Shui), as the Chinese people practiced ancestor worship.

One of the biggest mistakes healing professionals make is to assume that all they have to do to acquire clients is place an ad or two in some publication and clients will come bursting through their door.

Healers often tell me they have spent a lot of money on advertising with minimal, if any, results. Many become discouraged and erroneously assume that advertising doesn’t work.

Testimonials, when used effectively, can be one of the most powerful elements of your marketing message. They can sometimes be solely responsible for enticing a hesitant potential client or customer to buy your service or product.

The topic of fees and money in general is often a taboo subject amongst therapists, holistic counsellors and other healers. There is a belief that holds that because you are called into a profession that provides healing services to others, that it is somehow unethical, unspiritual or even greedy to think about what you are getting from the experience.

Many healing professionals either don’t have a website or have one that is sitting in cyberspace not getting much, if any, traffic. Those sites that get a lot of visitors are still few and far between. This is because few healing professionals understand how to get people to visit their site. If your website is not getting very much traffic, it is not doing you any good as a marketing tool and it would be wise to do something about it. This article outlines 5 methods that, if implemented properly, can drive more traffic to your website.

I've heard many renditions of the History if Reiki... Having great respect for Reiki and an equally large disdain for "creative" history, I thought I'd jot down what is fact and leave out the fiction. Mikao Usui, Sensei, the founder of Reiki, was born in 1865, near Kyoto, Japan. He was born into a religious family at a time that marked the beginning of more openness and a renaissance of thinking in Japan and this was partly due to a new emperor with forward looking concepts.

Ozone is oxygen on steroids. Oxygen is O2; ozone is O3.
Over a period of about 20 minutes, ozone breaks down into two atoms of regular oxygen by giving up one atom of singlet oxygen (O).

We’ve all heard about the new evolution of gifted children coming onto the planet–the Indigo, Crystal, and Rainbow Children. This phenomenon raises the question: what if any or all of our children could raise their consciousness and expand their natural abilities to connect more fully to themselves, others and the universe?

Have you noticed how much we, and the world around us, have been changing? Every year astounding advancements are taking place in technology, medicine and our understanding of the natural world. Humanity as a whole is evolving in leaps and bounds. Just look at all of the shifts in consciousness that have occurred in the last 20 years.

A new science is emerging that is changing our traditional understanding of health and healing. The latest scientific research is focusing on experiments, which are quantifying the effects of energy, light and information on human beings. Leading the way are two world-renowned scientists, William Tiller, PhD and Gary Schwartz, PhD, and their studies of the Reconnective Healing® frequencies, first discovered by Eric Pearl, D.C.

 “The tough gets going, when the going gets tough.” That is the image that springs to mind for the upcoming Ji Chou year – Yin Earth sitting on top of Ox (Yin Earth, Yin Water and Yin Metal).

It was reported that in Nkange, Botswana, a step to cut AIDS proved a formula for disaster (by Craig Timberg Washington Post ForeignService, Monday, July 23, 2007)

As you may know from my past writings, I am not particularly enamored with some aspects of establishment medicine. Most notably when an unproven hypothesis becomes medical dogma.

“Four people who underwent organ transplants at three Chicago-based hospitals in January contracted the AIDS virus during the procedures. The patients, who were infected with HIV and the virus for hepatitis C, only learned of their status in the past two weeks.” Chicago Tribune, 11/13/2007.
