Be the Harmony

Instant Healing Book Online Classes Beginning January 28, 2009

Happy Holy Days to One and All!

Read on to discover the latest news and how to receive your valuable free gift.

Barbara J. Semple here. Beginning January 28, 2010, I'll be leading a series of six (6) online webinar classes that will use my best selling book, Instant Healing - Accessing Creative Intelligence for Healing Body and Soul as a reference guide, with very special guests including Dr. Bernie Siegel, best selling author of multiple parenting and children's books; Drs. John and Sharon Franklin, best selling authors, Gift of the Jaguar; Nancy Marie, associate of cellular biologist Dr. Bruce Lipton; and Esther Lastique & Dr. Joni Frater, best selling authors and experts on healthy sexuality for women and men; among other wise and wonderful expert guests.

I am also giving away a valuable free gift when you sign up for the Instant Healing Book Online Classes by January 10, 2010. See below for more information.

Having a copy of my book is NOT a prerequisite for the class. You'll still be able to participate elegantly and completely in the classes. Using the book if you have it as a reference guide during the webinar classes may enhance your class experience. Either way, you'll receive plenty of rich content.

I promise to make my focus for these one hour classes all about nourishing and nurturing you, with guest speakers, easy to understand tips and information, interaction with students and presenters, time for questions, plenty of hands-on applications, and most importantly, enjoyable.

January 28 class: Introducing Instant Healing - Setting a Tone, with special guest Nancy Marie, associate of cellular biologist Dr. Bruce Lipton

Nancy Marie has created a beautiful DVD, I Create What I Believe, that speaks to the message that healing is truly influenced by what we believe, which is a key principle of Instant Healing. We may have a private showing of her DVD, if I can figure out the technicalities. Let it be so.

February 4 class: Healing and Your Inner Nature with guest speakers: Drs. John and Sharon Franklin, best selling authors, Gift of the Jaguar.

"Your work engages inner nature so strongly. Instant Healing will a classic for years to come," says Dr. John Franklin.

February 18 class: Weight Loss and Weight Balance with special guests, best selling authors (and wise women extraordinaire) Esther Lastique & Dr. Joni Frater, experts in the field of healthy sexuality and monogamous relationships.

“Esther has struggled with her weight her entire adult life - and she was always willing to try every new diet or fitness craze. That said her efforts have been largely unsuccessful. When we were asked to be a part of this launch for Barbara's incredible new book, we wanted to read it first and find out how it might work in our lives. Well, the results have been astounding. In a matter of days, after using the gentle and easy Instant Healing Quick Steps Barbara recommends for Weight Balance and inspiring Weight Loss, Esther has been watching the scale miraculously creep downward. The best part: these results have been effortless!” Dr. Joni Frater

“Dr. Joni lives in chronic pain from back and neck issues that forced her to retire from her dental practice. Using Instant Healing Quick Steps, her pain levels have been reduced more dramatically than with medication, in just moments a day. Even our dog Gypsy, an 11 year old chocolate lab that has severe arthritis and a ruptured ACL ligament in one of her back legs, has felt the relief from Instant Healing Quick Steps. This book, while amazingly beautiful and mesmerizing in its message, is worth its weight in gold for one simple reason - this process works.”  Esther Lastique

February 25 class: Family Health - Engaging Parents and Children, with special guest Dr. Bernie Siegel

Dr. Bernie Siegel, best selling author many times over in the field of medicine and cancer "projects," is also a prolific writer of parenting and children's books, including: Love, Magic and Mudpies, Raising Children to Feel Loved, Be Kind and Make a Difference, Smudge Bunny, How Difficulties Become Blessings, Buddy's Candle, and To Heal After the Loss of a Loved One.

With his immense passion and big heart, we may have difficulty getting Dr. Siegel to stop talking. :-) This will be a magical class. I am looking forward to the class myself!

February 4: Healing and Inner Nature, with Drs. John and Sharon Franklin
February 18: Weight Loss and Weight Balance, with Esther and Dr. Joni

Living the Matrix and Instant Healing

I just posted this comment on Lynne McTaggart's blog.

I had no idea that Dan Brown was writing The Lost Symbol and Lynne McTaggart was planning to star in The Living Matrix when I was writing my new book Instant Healing – Accessing Creative Intelligence for Healing Body and Soul. My book was released on September 15, 2009. Talk about everything being part of a Unified Field of Consciousness…I am in total awe. Rather than trying to explain the synchronicity with words that you might think is some kind of a sell, I’ll share a couple of excerpts.

In The Living Matrix Lynne McTaggart talks about the future of medicine and says it will become “Information Medicine – Medicine that takes information and changes the disturbed information is going to be the future of medicine.” The entire premise of Instant Healing is just that – that you and I can change the “disturbed” information. Here three excerpts from Instant Healing:

Page 5: “Instant healing is an idea whose time has come. It is a growing wave of understanding that suggests you and Source of All Life are One, and, you co-create your life together. And, Page 24: “Why is it so important to pay attention to the words you speak, think and feel? It is literally less stressful on your whole body-mind-spirit system. With all that your being has to coordinate on a normal day, when mental, emotional, spiritual and, or physical stress or illness are added, and Earth’s geomagnetic energies are in flux too, the magnitude of your body’s energy workload to stay in harmony is compounded. Plus, the subconscious mind is a very precise “default” mechanism. Just do or feel or say something once and it is securely stored deep in the recesses of your subconscious and recalled forever again and again unless you change it.

Labeling with words emphasizes a thing and attracts our attention to it. Consider, for example, scary medical disease “labels” such as cancer, HIV, and so on. How do these words influence a person’s healing? Just hearing or saying these scary label words has the mind conjuring all kinds of pictures that may influence a nano-second response in the flow of infinite life force.”

The energy healing self-help in the full color picture guide called Instant Healing is exactly that “Information Medicine” that Lynne is talking about. You and I have the power to change the disturbed information. Like Dr. Eric Pearl said in The Living Matrix: Healing can happen instantly.

Dr. Marilyn Schlitz, President of Institute for Noetic Science also says in The Living Matrix, “It’s time for us to bring these qualities of healing into the mainstream conversation about what is necessary to create an optimal healing system.” Instant Healing is not only beginning that dialog, it gives a person 50 options to experience the Field as pulsing through the body as well as feel ITS response when you choose to shift your information. The body already has a natural, optimal healing system.

Here is one final excerpt from Instant Healing:

Page 146: “Instant healing is a state of being rather that IS the cure for what ails you. Instant healing is a new wave of understanding that you and Source are one, and a part of you exists beyond physical disease. With the current science expanding and proving that in a hundredth of a second based on what you think, feel and say you can shift your body-mind chemistry, and each person who is choosing deepens her own personal interactions with Source, who knows, maybe humans are actually evolving into a realm of wholeness in which we can choose to “flip a switch” to the perfect health part of us to replace a “dis-eased” part of the body or the entire body? You could call on the perfect health body part waiting in the wings in the invisible realm to return the visible, physical body to its natural state of wholeness.”

See what I mean by the synchronicity of the Unified Field. HUGE thanks to Lynne, Dr. Bruce Lipton, and all of the frontier scientists with the Institute of Noetic Science and beyond, for creating a wave of momentum to bring this information to mainstream life, especially at this time with all of the convoluted talk about health care and funky viruses.

Many blessings,Barbara

Lynne McTaggart, Dan Brown and Instant Healing - Are you ready?

Today I’m announcing my new book, and letting you know some cool synchronicities about it too.

Instant Healing is on sale now. Your Body’s Been Waiting for This!

Instant Healing – Accessing Creative Intelligence for Healing Body and Soul is the complete title of the book. It’s on sale now through Xlibris.com. You’ll find buying details at the end of this entry if you are interested.

First, I want to let you know that in November, when all goes well, on Tuesday, November 10 we’ll have a campaign to launch the book on amazon.com. Right now I am gathering endorsements from authors, and bonus gifts from as many partners as possible to offer to anyone who buys the book on that day – November 10. Every one who does buy Instant Healing on that day in that 24-hour period will be helping raise awareness for this timely information, which in turn gives the book tremendous exposure. Plus, you get LOTS of bonus gifts from my partners. Yay!

If you are someone, or you know anyone, who wants to participate in my book launch campaign with amazon.com by giving a bonus gift, please contact me at Info@healingtouchquicksteps.com. I’d love to connect with you about partnering on this far reaching campaign. I am happy to support your work too.

The book launch campaign and your efforts all help to get the book in the hands of as many people as possible with information that I know can change how the world thinks, feels and acts about healing, especially with all of the chaos around health care and funky viruses.

Instant Healing is first class, high quality, top of the line premium, gorgeous. With 160 pages of full color pictures, graphics and life-sized close-ups, the book is 8.5 x 8.5 inches, and contains 50 Healing Touch Quick Steps you can do anywhere, anytime to bring your body and spirit into harmony, plus wisdom you might be reading for the first time. The pictures help you "get" it without using your brain. You can quickly look at a picture and know how to help yourself.

I showed a review copy of Instant Healing to the owner of our local Chinese food restaurant and she confided that she could not read English. I said, “No problem, just look at the pictures.” She was able to apply the self-help in less than 30 seconds.

Safe. Proven. Easy to apply.

What you learn here will help you become healthier and stay healthier. Your Body’s Been Waiting for This.

Science and Spirituality FINALLY agree. You can harness this knowledge for healing your body and soul. In addition to being a condensed version of a "medicine brew" as visionary activist Caroline W. Casey would call it, that includes snippets from Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Lynne McTaggart, Institute of Noetic Science, Eckhart Tolle, as well as sparkling gems from others like Mary Burmeister, Gregg Braden, Pythagoras and Paracelsus too. You might be surprised when you read how simple instant healing is.

Even if science hadn’t proven it, I’ve experienced it time and time again while giving my clients healing sessions. The moment someone starts talking about her failed marriage or his lost job, the life force flow takes a dive. The second the person switches to talking about her cat or dog or the last thing the new baby did, the life force soars. Hmm. Your pulses tell a story.

Now I am so excited about the “Science and Spirituality agreeing” part because of three synchronistic things:

1. I hear that Dan Brown’s new book, The Lost Symbol, is on sale.
2. Lynne McTaggart’s work in The Intention Experiment was a key influence in Instant Healing (my book); she is featured on Pages 12, 22 and 148; and it appears,
3. Lynne McTaggart’s work is listed and iterated in Dan Brown’s book as a major factor in his plot development that includes one of the characters having written two books on bridging science and spirituality!

How timely is that?

Also, my book, Instant Healing, will be displayed for 3 days as well as being featured in a full color, full page ad in the catalog for the Miami Book Fair International, November 13-15, 2009! If you are in the area, stop by and take a look at my book at Xlibris’s booth. I guess there will be over 100,000 people there from all over the world – literary agents, book sellers, publishers, and so on. So create your best parking space in your mind ahead of time. (Can you tell I am excited about all of this?!)

So, back to how to buy the book. You can buy now directly from Xlibris.com, or you can wait until the November 10th launch day and buy it from amazon.com. It’s not available on amazon.com yet. They need some time to get it into the channels of distribution. Or, you could buy a copy now from Xlibris.com and buy another one or two on the launch day for friends and loved ones for Christmas. I wanted to give you options.

You’ll reach for this book a lot just like a favorite cookbook. It contains a lifetime of health benefits. If you want to help someone feel better in 10 seconds or less, this might be the book to give.

Here is what some people who have seen the book are saying:

“It’s really fun.”

“Keeps my interest, each page is fresh and alive.”

“I love how it feels in my hands.”

“The colors are amazing.”

“This book makes me smile.”

“I’ll keep this one on my coffee table.”

“Great healing consciousness and wisdom too.”

What a lovely way to influence your personal health and well being, and have fun at the same time! When was the last time you read a book that actually felt as good holding it as reading it?

So, if you can’t wait until November 10 to buy Instant Healing, you can buy online through Xlibris.

Go to www.InstantHealingBook.com and click on the Buy Now button for all of the details.

That’s it for now. Thanks for sharing in my enthusiasm. Instant Healing is the culmination of 4 years of research and development plus 9 months of putting together every picture and graphic, and a thousand (just kidding) re-reads to make sure everything fit perfectly. It has truly been a divinely guided project. Thank you for sharing this moment with me. And thanks for envisioning its success in the world too.

Take care. Take great self-care. Many blessings,

Was Spock Lucid Dreaming?

The latest STAR TREK movie with the new young cast and 78-year old Leonard Nimoy as "Future" Spock is a big, fun statement about the power of reframing your thinking and not only changing your world, but healing it too.

SPOILER Alert: If you have not yet seen the movie, you may want to read this after you've seen it.

In the movie, Future Spock (Leonard Nimoy) meets and helps Young James T. Kirk (Chris Pine) and certain history that includes Young Spock gets rewritten. How can this be possible? Of course in the movies anything is possible. (Can Future Spock be interchanged with Present Moment Spock, and the same with Young Spock and Past Spock? Food for thought.) In reality, it is possible to rewrite and reframe your past. Lucid dreaming, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) psychology, hypnotherapy, Holotropic® Breathwork, Rebirthing, Recapitulation, and Shamanic Journeying are some excellent therapeutic options available for changing your past.

Sitting in a therapist’s office with your psychotherapist inviting you to imagine the pillow in the opposite chair is your father and now you get to say whatever you didn’t get to say when you were a child, is another way to fix your past. However you choose, it can be done and the experience of consciously reframing or repicturing your past unburdens and releases healing energies.

During this film I had the sense that Future Spock had already experienced some not so comfortable things in his life that he wished to "correct." If he could (and he could), let him dream them differently, healthier, with lighter outcomes. There are a few clues for me that Spock was lucid dreaming or reframing his past. Future Spock could also have been on a shamanic healing journey because when Young James Kirk meets Future Spock, Future Spock is in a cave on a distant planet. Caves have been a part of shamanic healing for thousands of years.  And Future Spock meets and has a conversation about "cheating or lying" with Young Spock. How cool is that to share your wisdom with your younger self?!

Here are some hints to Spock’s lucid dream shift. First, after trying to rein in his explosive emotions of sadness and anger at losing his mother and watching his planet of 6 billion people disintegrate, Young Spock finally loses it and realizes he is not fit to lead. If you remember, Future Spock coached Young Kirk to help Young Spock let go. Hint #1.

Secondly, Young Spock is in a romantic relationship with Uhuru. This is something new for Spock. It suggests that Young Spock was adventuring beyond the rigidity of his Vulcan training. Hint #2. Thirdly, during Young Spock’s conflicted life being of mixed race Vulcan and Human, his father tells him that he never really loved his mother. What a way to toughen up a young boy who is devoted to his mother. After Young Spock has his emotional breakdown (a good thing by the way, in terms of healing), his father fesses up and tells him that he married Spock’s mother because he loved her. (Big healing moment here!) Hint #3.

The final clue for me that Future Spock was reframing and actually recreating his past into something new (and I could be totally making this one up because it happened so fast) is that Future Spock from some far off land, smiles and says something like “Forward thrusters” and in the next moment Young Captain Kirk on the USS Enterprise in a totally different location says the exact words, “Forward thrusters” as the Enterprise engages on its next journey. Hint #4.

Anyway, something to consider. Reframing, recreating, changing and healing your past is possible, and can be a good thing for your health and well being. Spock did it with wise bravado. Of course remember, when you are doing your emotional release and reframing work, you can add energy healing self-help in the form of Healing Touch Quick Steps, such as the Quick Step called Dancing Moderator and Emotional Balance to aid in your recovery to wholeness. See the latest STAR TREK movie and come to your own conclusions. Have fun!

Take care. Take great self-care.

Many blessings,

A Spiritual Pandemic - Message from the Elders

Dear Friends,

I thought you might be interested in this point of view from the Mayan Elders. I resonate with this information in that I, too, feel we are rapidly evolving beyond the old ways. Take care. Take great self-care.

Many blessings,
Barbara J. Semple

A letter to humanity from The Star Elders
through Aluna Joy April 23rd. 2009

Pandemic! What a great and powerful word to awaken humanity to the fact that the collective is now thinking globally and acting locally. It is remarkable that something as simple as the fear of a little germ can link together the people of Earth. Humanity has taken another step toward being a global community. There is no doubt now that you have anchored within your consciousness the reality that you are all connected, interdependent and recognize the importance of being self-responsible. This is not a time to fear. It is a time to celebrate.

Your collective experience and explorations living in the third dimension have come full circle. This is a time where you will begin to rethink and renegotiate everything. Much of what you knew to be true you will discover is out of date. Realities that you dreamed about you will soon discover is the new reality you are now entering. These current times are causing a spiritual pandemic. This means that the boundaries between physical realities, cultures, religions, dimensions, social statuses and educational levels have been compromised and are breaking down. This spiritual pandemic means the entire world is waking up. Humanity is moving toward unity and oneness with all living beings of Earth. This spiritual pandemic will naturally evolve all life into a global community. Our actions will be a grand orchestrated collaboration focused on the well being of all living things. You can see symptoms of this transformation in every direction of your reality. This is the completion of ancient prophecy that you wrote about a long time ago.

The pandemics in your Earth's environment, your economic systems, your political systems, your consciousness, your physical realities and even your immune systems are morphing right before your eyes. You are now having a full on experience of what we like to call the Earth's stimulus package. You share the same planet . . . you breathe the same air . . . you even share the same viruses and bacteria! This is not new. You were never separate from each other. You just forgot you were always connected to all that lives.

The Earth's shifting environment is stimulating you to change the way you interact with Earth, the solar system, and the universe. This is showing up as the acceleration of using green technologies . . . including using solar power to recycling. Many of you are getting closer and in touch with Earth once again. Your gardens are sprouting in your environment, but also your internal gardens are flourishing.

Your shifting global economic system is impelling you to move toward one that is based on service and sharing. You will see a huge shift in values. You are evolving from a self-centered "What is in it for Me?" mentality, into a reality that you act from the knowing that you are a part of a global community. You recognize that everything you do affects every other living thing.

These times are compelling you to trust spirit over your physical and monetary assets. You were never meant to trust that which is outside of yourself. Your true nature is knowing that you are a 100%, self-contained, creative being with all the tools needed to live abundantly. It was never your destiny to toil to make a living. There is freedom right out in front of you.

Your physical body is morphing so quickly to the arrival of the new energy that you have to let go and let it be. This is causing you a lot of strange physical symptoms. The shifts are coming without delay and it takes your breath away. Even your immune system is evolving quickly so as to be able to adapt to the evolving energy of all life on the planet. Every single living thing in your environment is changing on a molecular level. From your body, to the earth, trees and plants, minerals, even viruses and bacteria are all evolving together to stay in harmony. This is not something to be feared. It is something to be excited about. Remember your body is an amazing self-healing vehicle. You constantly underestimate its regenerative power and forget it is evolving with everything else on this Earth. Disease is not why you drop your body to move on; it is just your human excuse. You leave this world when you have completed your mission and that is it. Let us remind you that you are not done yet!

Your consciousness is expanding to accept the utter vastness of magical and powerful new realities. You are beginning to live within these realities. You are enjoying the challenges and wholeheartedly except the huge void of unqualified energy out in front of you. It is an exciting, fascinating and highly creative time for you. It can also be a confusing time as you let go of the old and bring in the new all at the same time. Remember you are not going crazy . . . you are just waking up! This is something to celebrate. You are beginning to realize that the only way your life flows in these days is to be truly authentic to yourself and true to your heart. Many of you will be asked to make bold moves in your life. Others will stay more behind-the-scenes fine-tuning everything around them. You all are working toward the same goal . . . if you know it or not.

Do not let fear rob you of this incredible moment. This is why you came to Earth at this time. You are experiencing a huge evolutionary leap of the soul. Only the brave and courageous could be here at this time. You may not feel brave today, but we assure you, you are incredibly brave to take on and assist with the Earth's final step into oneness with the solar system and our multi-dimensional universe.

Do not let fear of global health issues, political unrest, economic challenges, war and terrorism stop you from being the truth of who you are. Your old, outdated, human nature naturally wants to cast blame on others for what is going on in your world today. This is not a conspiracy or diabolical plan by members of an elite group who we think are in power. This is propaganda that puts you in fear. Know that everything that is happening on this planet is happening because you allowed it to be so. It is a time to take full responsibility for the reality we have manifested in this dimension. Each living being will experience this evolution based on their own belief system. Ask yourself "What do you believe today?" All the issues your world is facing right now are just part of the Earth's stimulus package to help you stimulate your evolution . . . and it is working.

Evolution is a messy process. It always has been and always will be. Change and evolution is about tearing down the old and creating the new. Nature does this every moment. We do not know why humanity forgot that you are a part of this. But you did, and this is why you struggle and suffer sometimes during evolutionary pulses like the one you are in today. The cycles have come full circle and you are ready for the quantum leap to a new reality.

Remember that the best defense to the challenges of these times is to have a good offense. Your offense is acting from the authenticity of who you are. You may know this as your inner light, awareness, consciousness, etc…, but the fact is that there are only two choices you can make: You can choose fear, which is a lie and not who you are. Or you can choose LOVE, which is the truth of who you are, and you can keep on keeping on with the evolution. Fear will stop your evolution in its tracks. Love will not only accelerate your path, but it will make it an exciting adventure for you. Be positive, fearless and bold. Love is the unifier of all life and a protector of anything that you conceive could cause you harm. You are safe . . . you always have been.

Quit pretending your cool and calm on the outside, when on the inside you feel like you are going crazy. Let your support groups around you know what you are going through. We assure you that they are feeling the same things. It is insane to execute this evolving by yourself. There is a great sanity gained when our extended families come together in support of each other. It is another step toward global community and living in non-judgment. Remember there is an insidious, un-spoken rule that to be spiritual we must honey-coat the things we do not like. Honey-coating any part of the experience of this world is just a way to avoid the blessings and gifts of evolution of the current issue. When we avoid different aspects of our experience, we are also judging the greater divine plan that was set into motion by the Creator and our collective consciousness.

When you experience a peaceful moment, drink it in and enjoy every second of it. Do not worry that you are feeling stuck or not evolving. This is merely a rest stop so you can recharge and prepare for another leap into the next reality. Rest is good. Enjoy its rare and welcomed appearance of quiet and calmness.

There are many that will not like this message. They will criticize it and fight against it. These are the ones who teach us compassion. These are the ones that we must love and support . . . because you have been in their shoes more than once or twice yourself.

We realize that what we are asking you to do is a huge step of faith. We are asking you to take a leap into a void where you cannot see its destination. We are invite encourage you to put your fear addictions behind you, and to begin to act from the love and truth that you already know in your heart. If you do this, the path will unfold in front of you with each step you take, and you will be traveling in good company!

We are always here with you.

CEO of the Brain is Knocked Out by Stress

Stress causes a body serious harm. Researchers have already told us that stress can damage the heart by increasing the risks for high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease and stroke.

According to Dr. Gary Kaplan, a Long Island neurologist in the September 30, 2005 article from CanWest News Service called: Job stress takes its toll on the brain,“High stress, long hours, bad diet (fast food) in the workplace also takes a terrible toll on the brain.”

Dr. Kaplan says that the area of the brain most affected by stress is the prefrontal cortex. That’s in the front of the head behind the forehead. Here is the disturbing message. “Brain imaging and behavioral studies show that the so-called CEO of the brain, which regulates judgment, planning, problem-solving, decision making, moral reasoning and sense of self, is actually knocked out by stress.” The main controller of the brain is actually knocked out by stress.

In that same article, another expert, Fred Travis says, “If you are under constant stress, your brain is rewiring to just deal with surface facts.” It can’t handle anything else. He says, “Over time, the body’s natural feedback mechanisms break down, so even when you’re not in a stressful situation your body’s activation remains permanently on and at a higher level.” The fight or flight response in the body to stress causes a form of tunnel vision that actually takes the prefrontal cortex of the brain offline causing people to be unable to plan ahead or make far reaching decisions, which are a function of the prefrontal cortex.

Have you ever gone to the emergency room at the hospital because of an anxiety attack, feeling you were going to fall apart or that you were too afraid to take a shower because you felt you might fall apart or have a heart attack? Yes, this is stress to an extreme. If you are someone who has difficulty making decisions or you’ve lost your sense of self because of stress, if you are having trouble seeing the Big Picture, consider that it may be because of compounded stress and that you have actually rewired that part of your brain.

Energy healing self-help such as Healing Touch Quick Steps may be an easy way to support the return your brain functions to a harmonic state of wholeness. One simple Quick Step that has been known to influence healthy brain functions is called Calms Nervous System, and another Quick Step is called Waist Up-Waist Down Harmony. From the application of one or two of the Healing Touch Quick Steps mentioned here you may begin to notice a clearing of your mind, maybe even a sense of feeling energized, relaxed and alert at the same time, all from the reducing and melting away stress. This is important because no matter what kind of a day you had at work or at home, you may instantly tap into perfect harmony and rewire your brain to get yourself back on track.

Remember the Healing Touch Quick Steps do not replace, treat, diagnose, prescribe or cure. They may simply help you become clear about how best to help yourself in any moment with any conventional medicine including getting yourself to a hospital if that is what you need. Be well.

Take care. Take great self-care.

Many blessings,

What is Harmony?

What is harmony and what are you doing when you harmonize something like an emotion, for example, fear?

Well, first let’s look at the word ‘harmony.” Even if you are not sure what harmony is, you have a sense of what it is NOT. Layoffs, can't afford health care, can't pay mortgage, lost house, homeless, lost savings - These are plenty of deep survival issues about which you can feel fearful, and they say that something is out of balance. Feeling out of balance is NOT harmony.

What if you look at world events, fear or anything - anything at all - as simply energy? What if your pain or discomfort is a stuck or wacky energy response experience? Certainly recovering from a bout of fear seems more attainable than fixing the world economy. Energies of fear, loss, sadness, hopelessness, frustration and anger may very well be encouraged into a sense of order and comfort with energy healing self-help. This is important because in spite of all the disturbances occurring in and around your world, harmony is occurring all over the place too! We exist in an ocean of harmony. Yes, "doo doo" happens, AND there is mostly harmony. Harmony you have some control over invoking.

Define harmony: ‘an agreement; accord; a consistent, orderly, or pleasing arrangement of parts.’ In other words, harmony can mean that various parts, relationships, and interactions are all getting along well together. Thus, harmonizing is an activity or movement of energy that causes harmony or accordance or a pleasing arrangement of parts to exist.

Consider this. You have billions of interactions and relationships taking place within your body as well as your outer world every second; yes every second. For instance relationships with family, friends, pets, co-workers, at church, as well as your thoughts, feelings and actions all need to comfortably “get along with one another” for you to experience a sense of balance or stability in any given moment. Your body, for example, has hundreds of millions of cells, thousands and thousands of special body tasks and unique organ function details that are all interconnected and basically do relate pretty well together. This is important because paying some attention to your personal harmony will most certainly influence subtle and not so subtle occurrences in your life. When you feel peace and tranquility, everything and everyone around you may know it too.

Harmony is unique to you. To you it may mean stress relieved, immune system boosted, muscles toned, elimination and digestion improved, circulation increased, or that often debilitating emotion called fear disarmed. Harmony is also less specific. For me it is a state of being in an effortless ease, grace and joy; an uplifting flow my body and soul rhythms synchronized with Nature’s rhythms.

“Why synchronize with Nature with all of the changing weather patterns, tsunamis, hurricanes, wildness and unpredictability?” you might ask. Well the fact is you cannot separate yourself from Nature. Your body is an exquisite articulation of Nature. You are part of a Unified Field of Consciousness or Web of Life with a Source, Creative Intelligence energy in action, continuously animating and creating life. You always get to choose participating with instead of against your natural state of being. Healing Touch Quick Steps energy healing self-help is one way to support your alignment with Nature. It doesn’t mean “doo doo” will never happen. “Doo doo” still happens only now you handle it gracefully because you’re connected with “Big Picture” harmony. Ah.

What is fear doing to your body? When you stand in fear, your energy descends and cannot rise. Have you ever been so scared that you felt you might poop your pants? That is what fear does in an extreme case in the body of energy descending. This is important because it is your universal life force energy freely rising up the back of the body that brings in vitality. Harmonizing fear then has something to do with urging your body’s natural system of healing to rise up the back. Energy not rising = no vitality. No vitality = Destruction of health. This is important because when fear is harmonized, you are able to relax and receive nourishing life force to live your life well. Ah.

Harmonize fear now. Hold your index finger. Wrap your thumb and fingers around your index finger and gently, I do mean gently, be with your body's natural system of healing. Relax your arms, fingers and hands. Holding your index finger is tapping into Source energy. How great is that?

What this all means for you is that you have options in addition to conventional medical care to help your self align with harmonious forces of Nature by applying Healing Touch Quick Steps. Paying attention is where it all begins to change.

When you do not feel strong enough or healthy enough and fear overwhelms you, take it easy for the moment. Even when you are perfectly healthy, fear still creeps in. Whatever is going on, whenever fear comes forth, disarm it as smoothly as water sliding off a duck’s back by gently holding your index finger for a while and then hold the other index finger too. Hold it all day long if you need to. Sit in your rocking chair and hold your index finger. You are actively choosing to regain harmony. Watch your energy shift. Think about that ocean of harmony that is occurring all around you right now. Your natural state of being is peace and harmony. Ah.

Take care. Take great self care.Many blessings,

Barbara

GO GREEN - Make every day Earth Day for healing the body and soul.

Earth Day is coming up soon. You can gracefully make every day Earth Day for healing the body and soul with Healing Touch Quick Steps energy self-help. GO Green by preserving your own natural resources.

“Going Green” according to Wikipedia.com means an environmental social movement, and someone who “Goes Green” is defined as an environmentalist. An environmentalist is “a person who may advocate the sustainable management of resources and stewardship of the natural environment through changes in public policy or individual behavior.” Your body’s natural system of healing is your best resource. One way you, the body and soul environmentalist can take care of this resource is to reduce stress. No big surprise here. You have the power of Nature within you, literally at your fingertips, to preserve, defend and protect your body’s natural “resources.”

Nature is wholeness. Within this interconnected web of life, the body and our environment are explicitly related and both have renewable and sustainable resources. Some of the original “environmentalists” were advocating maintainable practices as far back as approximately 25,000 BCE. These early humans may also have been the first “deep ecologists” who believed in living life in accordance with Nature. The rhythms and movements of the Sun, Moon, equinoxes, four seasons, four elements, days, hours and nights intimately affected them. Archeological specimens in the form of pottery, statues, cave paintings and rock carvings have been found all over the world, where humans homesteaded as well as from their patterns of traveling for the best grazing and other clues to their daily human activities. Our human ancestors considered the life giving cycles of Nature sacred.

One of the most remarkable findings of a human being aligning her body with Nature is a carving at the entrance to a cave in Laussel, France of a woman with one hand on her abdomen, while holding an animal horn with 13 notches etched into it in her other hand, explaining her body’s relationship to the 13 moons of an annual lunar cycle, the natural world. This carving is dated to approximately 25,000 BCE!

Dr. Deepak Chopra says, “Theoretically, if you were totally aligned with the cosmos, if you were in total harmony with its rhythms, and if you had zero stress, then there would be very little entropy in your body. Your body wouldn’t age if you were totally synchronized with the cycles of the universe. If it did undergo entropy, it would be on the scale of the universe, which is cosmic cycles or eons of time.” The word “natural” comes from the word Nature. Nature does not have a mind that gets busy and crazy like we do. Look at the birds. Do they ever look stressed? Even in a snowstorm or on a blustery day, do they act stressed? Nope. Nature is a visible, palpable expression of who you and I are when we get out of our heads and centered in our hearts of unity.

You can influence your natural healing system harmoniously as well as harmfully. Stress is a major harming influence to your wellbeing. For example, scientists have found that your high stress job permanently rewires your brain and literally impedes your ability to make decisions and have a sense of self. When you think of everything as energy albeit some of it “stuck,” then what experts comprehend as permanent really isn’t. There are ways with energy self-help to recover your sense of self and your brain harmony again.

What about your body’s global warming? A simple self help called Healing Touch Quick Steps has been known to cool down the body, say from hot flashes or being in a sauna too long. By placing one hand on your elbow crease and the other hand on your opposite front bottom rib, a body elegantly responds.

Remember, your body’s natural system of healing is your best resource. Be your own “body and soul environmentalist.” Make every day Earth Day with easy energy healing self-help. Knowing how to bring your body-mind into harmony is a perfect way to preserve your personal natural resources. GO GREEN!

#2 - Healing Touch Quick Step called Healthy Boundaries:

To apply Healthy Boundaries place your fingertips on one of your cheekbones.

Healthy Boundaries can help with all kinds of boundaries – emotional, mental, and physical - anything that has to do with your “personal container,” which includes your skin surface containment, as well as a few big ones like self-consciousness, overly critical behavior, sweet cravings, self-protection and feeling secure in your body. 

Did you know that psychologists have said that an over-weight person may be subconsciously feeling a need to protect oneself by literally adding extra weight on the body to hide the true self?
