The 7 Chakras are the energy centers of our bodies and build our Inner Lives.
Our Outer Life Experience is in direct corolation with our Inner Lives, so
achieving a State of Well-being and JOY is crucial for health, balance and
REALIZING your dreams and Life Goals without sabotaging them by fears. Fears of not succeeding
and fear of success has been a big one for me.
A daily practice of meditation and chakra alignment has now
become crucial to stay healthy and balanced in this time of great change and
Ascension towards the 12th dimension. I am pleased to share this 7 Chakras Seed

A 7 day "Bootcamp" is suggested by Meditative Minds. I
advise that you try to incorporate them at your own "intuitive" pace.
I have incorporated morning and evening meditations to my lifestyle to be able
to "cope" with what is now happening in our evironment and to stay in
integrity. So many peoples and creatures of the earth are now suffereing and
being decimated due to acts of violence and terrorism rooted in the States of
Greed, Anger and Animality predicted in all Sacred Books of the earth. I have
studied the 10 States of Being and have been a practioner of Nichiren Buddhism,
NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO, The Essence of
the Sutra of The Lotus for 10 years now. Please take care of yourselves
by aligning your Mind, Body and Spirit. How to do this? Feed your mind with
good things (choose what you watch, read and listen to), feed your body with
healthy foods, exercise and rest. Please view my below post on the
"Effects of our Emotions on our Body, A Study on Water Crystals".
Aiming for the Middle Way is key, living in any State of Extreme is destructive
to yourself and to the people around you. Like a
drop of water falling in a body of water, the ripples affects the whole body of
water.
For every Action or
lack of Action there is a Result. Karma does not forgive. Please Feed your
Spirit with prayer, meditation and the right foods for your Mind Body and
Spirit on a daily basis for in the end all that matters is being healthy and
happy, to love and to be loved. LOVE YOURSELF FIRST for you are complete.

knowledge and teachings I have acquired; tips and tools on how to cope
with what is going on in the world and how I cultivate inner peace and
happiness from teachers and mentors around the World. Wishing you Peace,

It can take much courage to express and to realize yourself fully in today's modern world. It seems that society has raised the bar so high that many of us just quit before taking that first step to realizing a goal or a dream. We are often faced with such high levels of expectations and it seems that the "competition" is always better or we become filled with jealousy when we look at our neighbor's seemingly greener pastures. Is the grass really greener on the other side? If we chose to compare ourselves to others we will absolutely quit before trying. A daily practice of meditation and self-love has now become mandatory to be healthy and balanced in today's world. I fell upon Matt Kahn's, True Divine Nature Youtube Channel two years ago. His lectures can be compared to purely improvised meditations, composed of amazing teachings. He is soft spoken, calm funny and takes the time to elaborate his teachings in a clear and understandable fashion. I hope to be able to able to attend one of his "live" lectures one day which are JOYOUS celebrations of LIFE and of our True Divine Nature. He has assisted me on my journey of self-discovery and has helped me to accept my true mission and yes, my one Divine Nature. I am glad to share his latest teaching and link to his YOUTUBE Chanel in the hopes that it can perhaps assist you on your own journey of self-discovery and healing today. Enjoy Matt Kahn's latest video "Seven Holy Words" and "The Declaration of Divinity". Wishing you all a good start to the New Year. Namaste : )

In Amazonian culture, there exists a very ancient healing tradition that, at its most basic level, utilizes a panacea of medicinal plants. This practice has been cultivated over thousands of years, evolving as various tribes lived and thrived throughout the different regions of the South American rainforest. The elders learned to use specific plants to heal all manner of illness, and through a very deep, intimate understanding of their immediate jungle surroundings, a symbiotic relationship was formed between man and nature. The tribes were healed, nourished, and guided by the plants, and in turn, these communities nurtured the forests and became keenly aware of each plant’s healing properties.
In this manner, the medicinal plants have been an ever-evolving foundation of these cultures for millennia. This ancient tradition works with both plants that are seen as strictly medicinal - those that work solely on the physical level and can occasionally have psychological benefits - as well as with those that are considered spiritually sacred. Western medicine categorizes these plants as “entheogenic”.
Looking for a new prescription for serious illness? Take eight
intrepid patients, add a team of indigenous medicine men and shamans,
and mix for 30 days in the Peruvian Amazon. Suffering from conditions
ranging from Parkinson's to prostate cancer to diabetes, these patients
are motivated by a commitment to heal naturally and sheer desperation to
end their suffering. Immersed in nature, silence and solitude, shamanic
medicine ceremonies open them to the emotional and psychological
issues underlying their dis-ease. The experienced shamans mindfully
harvest and prepare specific remedies for their patients, with
treatments that include healing songs and spiritual counsel. Entering
the heart of healing in the heart of the Amazon, we find that saving the
rainforest really does mean saving ourselves.
In light of what is now happening around the world, my collaborator,
Ocean Heart and I have decided to create and dedicate this Track of the
Mantra of NAM MYOHO RENGE KYO and our new BLOG “The Healing Power of JOY" to the families and friends of those who have lost loved ones following
acts of terrorism and violence. Ocean Heart is a great teacher, healer
and friend. We have dedicated our lives to the great Mission of Kosen
Rufu, World Peace. It is our great pleasure to share some teachings and
healing technics with you to help you and yours . Let’s all be grateful
for our loved ones and good friends at this time of Thanksgiving.
Namaste

This is how I end my day and manage to sleep like a baby.
I fell upon this meditation by Deepak Chopra the other day and it is one of the best meditations I have heard in a very long time. If you do not know Deepak Chopra, I invite you to discover him. Trust and let go, believe me it's like floating in a warm hot fragrant bath, soothing and healing voice and beautiful oriental music. Sometimes worries and activities of the stay still echo and ring in your ears at the end of your working day. Meditation is an amazing way to start and end your day a real gift of self love. You will feel refreshed and feed your cerebra with wonderful soothing Alpha Waves. This will rest and refresh you and I am sure most beginners will simply fall asleep, so please make sure your pijamas are on and you are under your covers before you do this. I have often fallen into a very deep sleep in the middle of this type of meditation with all the lights on and fully clothed. Relax and enjoy in the safety of your home and bed or in a quiet area where you will not be disturbed. No need to believe every word he says, simply trust and be aware of how your body is relaxing and letting go of tension. Namaste : )

Through the 1990's. Dr. Massaru Emoto performed a series of experiments observing the physical effect of words, prayers, music and environment on the crystaline structure of water. Emoto hired photographers to take pictures of water after being exposed to the different variables and subsequently frozen so that they would form crystalline structures. The results were nothing short of remarkable.
The Water in you
Considering the human body is composed of 60% water. I think we can connect the dots...
I am glad to
share a great video by Danny Gerean, L.Ac. about emotions and their direct link
to illness. Each emotion has an effect on different major organs of our
body.I believe in this 100% and so have
the practitioners of Ancient Chinese Medicine after 2,500 years of evolution. I
am also happy to share the concept of “Qi” with you as well. The below article was
written by the University of Minnesota.Keeping the JOY and BALANCE in your everyday life experience begins by
eating well, getting a minimum of 7 hours of sleep, avoiding extremes and
focusing on REAL LIFE priorities such as: Health, family, self love and belief
and taking responsibility for your own state of “Happiness” or “Unhappiness”. It’s
like that song by Bobby McFerrin, “Don’t Worry Be Happy” when he says, “Take
your frown off of your face, don’t bring everybody down, keep a smile on your
face” Have you ever heard that no one can make you happy? I have. I believe that we are all responsible for our
state of resistance in allowing the good in our lives and beings. What can make
you happy right at this very moment? Think of something simple like having a
glass of water, taking a deep breath, eating an apple, a piece of dark
chocolate or just making yourself a hot cup of tea or taking a power nap to
better continue your day’s work.Try
this great affirmation by Abraham Hicks: “I am open and receptive to receiving
all that is good”. If you are having trouble letting go, just think as if today
was the last day of your life. How would you like people to remember you and
what would you be leaving behind?
Cultivating
our own state of inner happiness starts with planting a seed in fertile soil.
Is your soil fertile? Are you willing to take the time and patience to love
yourself fully and to become the best “YOU” you can be by clearing all self
imposed judgments, fears and doubts retained by your present self and the past
experiences that influence your present actions and impact your future? Are you
willing to water and grow the seed of happiness in your life garden? I once
heard a beautiful analogy to life.
A wise man said, “If you plant one type
of flower in your garden you will have a field, but if you plant different
types of plant seeds in your garden, you will have a beautiful garden filled
with different types of fragrant flowers and wonderful tasty garden vegetables.”

Internal Causes of Disease and the Seven
Emotions in Chinese Medicine by Danny Gerean, L.Ac.
What is Qi? and (Other Concepts)
Qi is energy in the very broadest sense possible.
Qi is universal.
Qi embraces all manifestations of energy, from
the most material aspects of energy (such as the earth beneath your feet,
your computer, and flesh and blood) to the most immaterial aspects (light,
movement, heat, nerve impulses, thought, and emotion).
Life,
it is said in the Chinese medical classics, is a gathering of Qi. A healthy
(and happy) human being is a dynamic but harmonious mixture of all the aspects
of Qi that make up who we are.
Qi is in a state of continuous flux, transforming endlessly from one aspect of
Qi into another. It is neither created nor is it ever destroyed; it simply
changes in its manifestation.
In
order to talk about the relationships between the various aspects and
manifestations of Qi within a given context, Chinese philosophy employs the
concept of yin and yang.
What are yin and
yang?
In the Chinese perspective, given the importance of "taking
everything as a whole," all things are relative. A thing can be understood
only in relation to something else. This is the essential idea behind the use
of the terms yin and yang.
Yin and yang are terms used to describe relative opposite qualities or
manifestations of Qi. If yin is form, then yang is function. If yin is
material, then yang is immaterial.
Yin refers to aspects or manifestations of Qi
that are relatively material, substantial, condensing, solid, heavy,
descending, cold, moist, cooling, dark, passive and quiescent.
Yang refers to aspects or manifestations of Qi
that are relatively immaterial, amorphous, expanding, hollow, light,
ascending, hot, dry, warming, bright, aggressive, and active.
What is their relationship?
Everything that is yin contains some element of yang, and everything
that is yang contains some element of yin. There is nothing so solid or
material (yin) that does not contain some energetic vibration (yang), and
nothing so kinetic or immaterial (yang) that does not also contain some
material substance (yin). Even light, so Einstein tells us, has mass.
Yin and yang are continuously changing; they constantly adjust to one another,
and are endlessly transforming one into the other in an eternal dance of
becoming. This wonderful concept of change is beautifully illustrated in the
simple image of the "yin-yang symbol."
When all of the yin and yang aspects of Qi are in harmony with one another,
there is health, wellbeing and contentment. When yin and yang are in
disharmony, when there is too much or too little of one aspect of Qi relative
to another, then there is illness, pain and suffering.
After 2,500 years of evolution, TCM has become a very rich and
sophisticated system of rational medicine with a great diversity of theories
and applications. But, in its essence, it seeks to understand and facilitate harmony in human life.
It is based on a very simple principle: any system that is in harmony
tends towards health, wellbeing,
and sustainability. A system that is in disharmony tends towards illness,
disease, suffering, and collapse.
What is a system in
TCM?
A system is comprised of everything that creates and sustains it.
Everything is interconnected and interdependent. If all of the parts of a
system are in harmony with one another, then the whole system is in harmony.
Disturb one thing and you create a disturbance that ripples through the whole
system.
This principle applies to any and all systems. For example, it applies
as equally to a human being as it does to a family, community, or the
environment. So we must take care to consider our actions and to take things as
a whole.
