IN THE PIT

I've shaved my underarm hair since I was 14 years. 

Thats more than 16 years ago now. 

For International Women's Day I wanted to share the true beauty of my pit. 

In celebration of womanhood in all is glory 

I have embraced my hair letting it grow for over a month.

  

I thought it was about time to see what 'Au Natural' really meant. 

So here it is. Enjoy these images of me. 

They represent the true female power

that stand for:

.

..

...

 Equality

Human rights

Sexual Liberation

No Gender Discrimination 

No distortion or perversion of the woman body

No restricting mental and physical body images

No Sexual Abuse 

No retouch

Dignity 

 Love

The Shadow Effect

This book is amazing. I am reading the final chapter now and have not been able to put it down. There is so much knowledge and guidance on how you can deal with the things you have repressed and packed away deeming it unwanted, bad emotions or unworthy thoughts and deeds. The thing is all these hidden aspects of our personality, that we are trying so desperately to keep in the dark, actually come back from the shadow to haunt us, unless we are able to look at it and bring it into the light of our acceptance. 

The book is divided into 3 sections one for each of Deepak Chopra, Debbie Ford and Marianne Williamson. Each share their own personal journey taking on the dark shadow and reveal their secrets of how to overcome the shadow and enjoy the wholeness of your being. ENYJOY. 

POWER Vs FORCE by David R. Hawkins

M.D. Ph.D. David R. Hawkins maps out the wonders of Kinesiology and the Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior. I've rarely been this excited about reading a book. Perhaps it is because I have been seeing a Healing Arts Practitioner who has helped me back on track with my health for the past year, using Applied Kinesiology. Even though it seems totally crazy the first few times I went, I soon learned that IT WORKS!

Your body has an intelligence of its own and you can ask it questions and get direct answers to any question. There is an underlying consciousness or truth inherent and present in all living things. We can have full access to this power purely by being aware of it and using simple modes of testing.

The book has the first map of consciousness that I've seen, which leaves enough inspiration for a lifetime of afterthought but the science behind this technique is thoroughly explained and offers a direct way for you to bring this power into your life.  The truth it is there. It's yours already whether you use it or not.

I ordered my copy on amazon

Alejandro Jodorowsky

This is my book recommendation for the month. An amazing journey through the ups and downs of film director/artist Alejandro Jodorowsky's spiritual quest. The great thing about this read is that it is about all the spiritual women that have influenced him on his spiritual path. Mr. Jodorowsky's way of describing his tormented inner life, mixed with the reality of his career and personal obstacles on his journey for enlightenment makes for a truly authentic and honest read. Not least scandalous and obscure.

I love that it is the most incredible women teachers who transforms his searching heart into a heart of knowing along with his faithful master, the Zen monk, Ejo Takata that is. Get it here.  

All Watched Over By Machines of Loving Grace

I really enjoyed this BBC series made by Adam Curtis about the history and advancement of technology. All I can say is I AM NOT A MACHINE!! I AM NOT A MACHINE!! That is my mantra.

Terence McKenna Interview

I am so happy to have come across this astonishing interview with Terence McKenna from October 1998, where he describes his Novelty Theory to director John Hazard. In the most comprehensible way describes his theory of why time seems to be accelerating, the Chinese I-Ching and its connection to our DNA like the blowing of wind.. to hyper-complexification, connectedness of all information, Archaic figures and their revival, the end of time (or our world as we know it) over to Shamanism, psychedelic substances and so forth. His views are radical but none the less presented in a factual convincing and believable way. 


This interview is over an hour long, and gives you enough information for a years reflection, nevertheless it doesn't seem long enough to answer all the questions it raises. Sadly Terence McKenna is not around anymore. He died in 2000 of a brain tumor and this interview seems to have been one of his lasts. My sentiment is one of gratitude for his research, curious nature and accomplishments in his life on Earth. 

CHEM-TRAILS

It is indeed a sad and scary prospect that the planet is being sprayed with toxic substances and heavy metals like aluminum polluting the air, the water, nature and animals. Not to mention making us all ill!!

They called it Geo-Engineering to reduce Global Warming, but really it is a big cover-up to slowly reduce the population, gain more control, more power and ultimately to control all agriculture...

One question keeps forming on my tongue... WHY?
In who's interest is it to destroy our planet and the environment?
Can whoever is doing this really sit back and relax after they've ruined the earth and soil, seas and ecosystem and then enjoy themselves and their money and power..? Seems just utterly stupid and insane.

Watch the documentary What in the world are they spraying?  




Next question that is forming on my tongue.. What can we do?
Spread the word. React - look up into the sky - ask questions - have meetings - demonstrate - make petitions and most importantly keep strong, healthy and alert.

Together we can move this ship around and free ourselves from the stronghold of these oppressors.

Pay homage to nature. Learn to live from the heart. It is where our future lies.
And keep growing organic crops.

Reiki Healing - A system of energy healing

I truly believe we (human) posses the ability to heal ourselves. I recently came across Reiki, a Japanese art of healing. It is a energy healing system founded by Dr. Mikao Usui. The origin of Reiki can be traced back thousands of years to the ancient cultures of India, Tibet, China and Japan. The technique was rediscovered in the mid 1800’s by Dr. Mikao Usui of Japan. 

Reiki Founder, Dr. Mikao Usui

I came across Reiki because I woke up with severe back and neck ache the other day. The pain was so strong, I was stiff as a board and literally couldn't move. I panicked. I have tried this sensation once before, and then I was laid up in bed for two weeks on the heaviest pain-killers until the muscle spasms eased off and I was slowly able to re-gain normal movement without pain. After that I frequented a physiotherapist for six months before my neck felt normal again. So waking up with this kind of pain 4 years later, really scared me. I called my friend, Malin Landaeus who owns a vintage clothing store, and who also happens to be a Reiki Master. I was supposed to help her that day in the morning. So I called to let her know I couldn't make it as I literally couldn't move out of bed.

She was in her car when I called. She said in a calm voice. "Okay,  I am going to drive to your house and give you Reiki." At that point. I just said. "Okay. great, thank you." hung up and thought, this will be interesting... I had no idea what to expect and I almost didn't believe that anything could help me at that point, but I was sure open to give it a try. Anything to get rid of this crazy, stiffness and pain.

So not long after Malin arrived. She asked me to lay on my stomach so she could sit comfortably at the end of the bed. She then placed her hands calmly on the back of the neck. I felt a tingling sensation pretty much the whole time as she moved her hands around very carefully. The session lasted about 40 min. And when she had finished I sat up slightly shaky and slowly realized I had full mobility in the neck. I turned my head slowly to the left, slowly to the right. And I couldn't believe it. She had cured me. For about two days after I was still sore in the neck region, but had full mobility and no pain. Furthermore I ended up going about my daily business that day as normal and felt really energized. In fact this life-force-energy stayed with me for about three days after. It felt like I had been touched by a miracle. And all she did was lay her hands softly on me.

Now I am exited to take her class: Reiki Level One this Spring.
I will recommend this practice to anyone seeking holistic healing. It is natural and so powerful.
And once you know how to do it you can not only easily heal yourself, but others too.
