How many times do you hear mothers say to their children “go outside and play”.  In our house it’s daily but you won’t hear me saying “don’t forget your shoes”.  I want them to go outside in bare feet and feel the grass in between their toes.  You may ask why ?

Because it’s a simple process of having my boys Earth Theirselves.  Kenneth Meadows once wrote about ~Earthing Yourself~ where you go outside and just glop yourself to the ground.   You were suppose to have your palms down and feel the ground (if you can’t go outside then go to the floor where your at) and begin to get grounded.  As your body begins to relax your allowing your excess energy drain from your hands and feet and it will be absorbed into the Earth to be returned to the source. 

To continue ~Earthing Yourself your to stand up and visualize drawing up energy from the ground through your feet as if your a tree and your pulling up energy through your roots.  To finish the exercise stamp each foot a couple of times and say mentally or outloud  ” I am now grounded in my everyday life, safe and secure within my own energy, and fully under my own control”.  This simple exercise will change your day and it doesn’t take very long.

The kids unknowingly ground themselves naturally by being outside playing so why not give them that little extra boost by telling them to go outside without their shoes, perhaps  go outside with them and take a blanket and laydown and look at the clowds.

There was a time in my life when I met lady known to us  as  ”The Herb Lady”;  it was Joan Tinker who taught me in her kitchen how to test my strength in my fingers and arms to  determine what I should be putting into my body and later when I was needing help in dealing with  stress she showed me how to Tap. She told me Tapping would help me increase my immune system and calm the central nervous system. 

 Twenty  years later what I thought was just tapping on my chest to help release T cells in my body;   I’ve come to find out is an actual therapy used by Psychotherapist called “Thought Field Therapy” and the muscle test is called ”Kinesiology”  www.allergyescape.com.   Joan never went to a university she just had a son who was ill and the doctors couldn’t help him so she took it into her own hands to find a solution and with her desire for more knowledge she then shared it with others.  Joan  decided to connect with a company www.naturessunshine.comto become an independent sales agent and became known to us in the community as the “herb lady” who would help you  heal  using alternative healing methods.  In our small area of the world there wasn’t much talk about alternative healing but there were those of us who tried the western  medicine and still were not getting the success we wanted.  Joan  devoted her life to helping others from her home and shared what ever she had available whether it be herbs, iridology equipment, knowledge, goat milk and most importantly her time (you could show up at her home anytime and she would make sure you got the information you were seeking and if she didn’t personally know the answer she would make contacts until she did).    I know her techniques as  muscle testing and tapping but in actuality what she was teaching us was Kinesiology and Thought Field Therapy.  I find both of them extremely useful and hope you will do your own research and consider adding them into your life.  It’’s important for us to remember who planted the first seed in our minds to explore alternative living and healing.  For this reason, I am writing this blog this evening.  I am very grateful for all the gifts she shared with me.

~Tapping* for peace and happiness~

While tapping on the center of your chest (your Heart
Chakra), repeat the following statements:

 

Even though I feel overwhelmed and stressed
I am allowing myself to feel more peace.

Even though I don’t have as much money
as I would like, I am having faith in myself
and God that things will change.

Even though I feel like giving up at times, I
know that this too will pass.

Even though it is easier to focus on what I don’t
want, I am choosing right now to remember
all the blessings I have.

If necessary do this several times a day. Come
up with your own statements. Validate your
current experience and then make a choice
to let it change.
