Have you heard the chant of Mother Earth?

Have you heard the chant of Mother Earth
As she whirls through space?

The sound she has made since her creation.
The music of the spheres.

Musica universalis....

On this Earth Day, let us love our beautiful home.

Let us do one thing for her, as a gift of appreciation.

Let us meditate and attune to Mother Earth,
As she sings with all creation....

musica universalis!

Blessings!

How to Control Stress the Natural Way

Hi Everyone,

Well, I spent part of the weekend completing the
update of my report, "How to Control Stress". If
you aren't familiar with the report, let me just
say that it's a natural approach to the control
of stress. More specifically, I give three nature
therapy exercises that you can use to help aid in
reducing the stress in your life.

You'll find the link on the left side panel, to the
left of this post, under "Notices!". But, heck, you
don't have to go there. Just click HERE.

I've been pleased with the distribution of the
original report. I think it's been downloaded
several thousand times since its release in 2006.
I hope you enjoy the latest version.

I'll be back shortly with another post.

All the best,
Laurie

Do Orbs Like Molasses Cookies Or Were They Just Visiting? :)

Hi Everyone,

This year, over the Christmas Holidays, I
decided to prepare and bake old-fashioned
molasses cookies. Now, the recipe has been
in my family for at least 100 years, and,
believe me, the cookies are very tasty!

However, the main reason for making this
post, is to show you a digital photo taken
by a friend during that wild molasses cookie
mixing and baking scene.

There are a number of orbs in the photo, as
you will see from close examination. Hence,
the title of this post. :) So, do orbs
like molasses cookies, or were they just
visiting?

Spring Dreams of Kayaking

As spring approaches, I am dreaming of new
kayaking adventures in Mahone Bay Harbour,
and in and around the islands on Minamkeak
Lake.

Last spring began in a promising way, as I put
my kayak in the water early, and had planned
to kayak often prior to blackfly season. But then,
circumstances changed, and I was unable to
kayak for a variety of reasons. I simply failed
to get my act together.

In any event, as spring approaches, I am once
again excited and enthusiastic, and hope for
many enjoyable outings on the water. When I
kayak or canoe about the islands in Minamkeak
Lake, I am always enchanted by the interesting
rock formations, and by the diversity of plants
on the islands and along the shoreline.

Let's celebrate the approach of spring!

All the best,
Laurie

Natural Healing Talk Newsletter Excerpt, January 31, 2010 Issue

I'm pleased to post an excerpt from my Natural
Healing Talk newsletter. if you are interested
in subscribing, complete the subscription box
on the left side or side of this page. Thanks!

Now, here's the "General Comments" section
of the newsletter:

Hi Everyone,

Well, I'm writing this newsletter on a cold,
full moon evening, here in Nova Scotia. We're
in our first major cold spell of the winter!
However, later this evening, I plan to bundle
myself in warm clothing, and take a moonlight
stroll along the old gravel road that passes
near my home.

There is a special feeling when walking on a
moonlight night. It's very soothing and healing
to body, mind, and spirit. I like to call it
moonlight consciousness.

Moving along, almost every week there seems
to be more information about the benefits of
vitamin D for our health, especially D3. The
latest news I've read, is that a lack of D3 may
result in an increased risk of various Central
Nervous System disorders, including multiple
sclerosis, Alzheimer's, and Parkinson's disease.
As well, some medical researchers state that
sufficient levels of D3, helps to ensure the
normal development and functioning of the
central nervous system.

Here are several links for your examination:

Iodine Supplements: The Four Best Kinds to Use

10 Foods That Detox The Body

Is Your Medication Raising Your Cholesterol?

Also, here's a recipe for Black Bean Soup.


Finally, I will soon have an announcement about
a new 9 month program I'm developing, that may
interest you. At the moment, it's still a secret! :)

Best regards,
Laurie

A Beautiful, Sunny, January Day!

Although it's rather cool, today, the sun
feels warm in sheltered areas. This morning
I went outside, sat on a chair, and enjoyed
my hot coffee. The sun bathed me in its
beautiful rays, as I sipped my coffee. I
was sitting on the south side of the house,
and sheltered from the cool, northwest
breeze.

So, now, I must go and walk to the balsam
fir grove. I'll be back soon with a post
regarding my walk.

All the best,
Laurie
