Manifesting with the Yoga Masters 

How to Successfully Manifest Happiness 

October 16, 4:30-7:30pm 

$35 Introductory Month Includes 

Lots of Hot Yoga and this Workshop 

($25 for Blissful Spirits members) 

The teachings of Yogananda’s lineage explain why so 

many people fail to materialize a life of their dreams: 

to be youthful (at any age), beautiful, fit, strong, and 

healthy; to pursue your divine purpose; to be prosperous, 

and to have healthy and happy relationships. 

The sixth part of the workshop series, Exploring the 

Principles of The Sacred Hot Yoga MethodSM, will 

be an active discussion on the external obstacles and 

internal resistance which inevitably cause failure and 

despair. The emphasis will be on overcoming one’s 

negative samskaras, the habitual tendencies to repeat 

the same wrong thoughts, actions, and words, and to 

instead consciously manifest what you truly desire.

The production process for 

each issue is unique, and this 

issue has been quite an adventure! 

The cover author, Dr. 

Christiane Northrup, was 

so passionate about natural 

women’s health and the progress 

that has been made with 

natural health breakthroughs and new offerings, 

that her enthusiasm was truly contagious. 

Take some time to read the feature 

about her and her updated, revised book, 

Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom (for 

yourself or a woman you love) and think 

about purchasing the book. It’s an amazing 

reference material…truly life-changing for 

me and something that every woman could 

benefit from owning. 

This is also the 4th annual Fair issue, 

and this year there are some wonderful 

changes afoot. The venue is the same as 

it has been for the past three years (Albuquerque 

Center for Spiritual Living), but 

it will be bigger and better than ever! The 

church is remodeling the space across the 

courtyard from the sanctuary and nonadvertisers 

have an opportunity to participate. 

(In the past, the Fair was exclusively for 

my advertisers.) 

The Albuquerque Center for Spiritual 

Living is a co-sponsor in the Fair this year 

and table space is very reasonably priced 

(see pages 10 and 11 for more Fair information), 

and tickets to the Whole Foods 

buffet are included. A small entrance fee to 

the Fair ($7) has been implemented this 

year and that includes one trip through the 

buffet as well as entrance to the Fair and attendance 

at one or more of the three workshops 

newly featured this year. 

I love hearing from readers that they 

read everything “cover to cover every issue” 

and “thank you for producing the 

magazine”. Through the years, I have heard 

many stories about how one article or another 

“changed the reader’s life,” and it always 

makes me feel great. Since the July/ 

August issue came out, two readers extended 

special thanks for featuring Suzanne 

Somers and her newest book, Knockout; 

Interviews with Doctors Who are Curing 

Cancer and How to Prevent Getting it in 

the First Place. Both of these readers’ lives 

have been incredibly altered after receiving 

a cancer diagnosis (for themselves or a 

very close loved one). While each is doing 

their own research on treatment options;, 

what touched me most about these two 

stories was that each had read the Somers 

article and the book, prompting them to 

start one of the cancer treatment programs 

discussed in Knockout. Both readers were 

very grateful for the information. 

It is a true blessing to me to do work I 

love so much, but even more fulfilling is 

the knowledge that the magazine affects 

the lives of readers in positive, uplifting 

ways. It just doesn’t get better than that. 

I hope your summer has been wonderful 

and memorable, and that you felt, “Truly 

Alive” through it all. Next issue will be our 

holiday issue, featuring lots of ideas for holiday 

gift giving (and for taking special care 

of yourself during the hectic holiday season!).

Abdominal Pain, Menstrual 

Cramps, Incontinence – Yes, there 

is a Myofascial component 

MyoRehab Has Answers By Victoria L Magown 

In the last issue of Truly Alive, we discussed how both 

osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis have a Myofascial 

component that we can treat to decrease pain and increase 

range of motion. Abdominal pain, menstrual cramps and 

incontinence can also have a Myofascial component. 

Shortened and contracted abdominal muscles and fascia can 

place pressure on the internal organs. Visa versa, dysfunctional 

internal organs can create Trigger Points in the abdominal muscles 

and shortening of the fascia causing pain and restriction. 

Trigger Points are hypersensitive, self-sustained contraction 

knots that develop in muscle and fascia. They cause a shortening 

in the length of the muscle called a taut band which in turn 

restricts range of motion. When these taut bands are stimulated 

by contracting or stretching, pain is triggered and referred in predictable 

patterns away from the Trigger Point. 

During an automobile accident, the lap seatbelt impacts the 

abdominal muscles and fascia so severely that in some cases people 

have experienced bruising. The resultant Trigger Point restriction 

puts pressure on the internal organs causing them to become 

dysfunctional. This could cause chronic abdominal pain which 

interferes with normal eating and digestion, contributing to acid 

reflux, flatulence and indigestion. The bowels and bladder can 

also be affected causing constipation and difficulty urinating. 

Dorothy came to MyoRehab after a car accident and one of 

her symptoms, as well as whiplash, was peri-menopause. She was 

only 35 years old. Dorothy was quite thin and the impact from 

the seatbelt caused the abdominals to spasm which put pressure 

on the reproductive organs and stopped her menses and hormone 

production. After treating the abdominal muscles and fascia, she 

started menses and hormone production within two weeks. No 

more peri-menopause. 

Andrea had suffered with menstrual cramps since she was 13 

years old. Now, at 16 years old, they were so severe she would 

miss one or two days of school most months. After treatment of 

the abdominal muscles and fascia, Andrea only felt slight discomfort 

for a day or two during her menstrual cycle. We addressed 

perpetuating factors and found she was doing 100 sit-ups 

a day without stretching the abdominal muscles following her 

workout. We asked her to reduce the number of sit-ups initially 

to twenty-five and always stretch the abdominals after her workouts. 

Then as she became pain free, she could add five sit-ups a 

week, as long as the menstrual cramps did not exacerbate. 

Alice came to MyoRehab for relief of left hip pain after a fall 

when she was 48 years old. It wasn’t until the third treatment, 

(while I was explaining how unlevel pubic bones can cause incontinence 

as I used a Muscle Energy Technique to mobilize her 

sacrum, right ilium and pubic bones) that Alice confided she had 

given up her beloved aerobics due to incontinence when jumping 

and dancing. She was also experiencing incontinence when 

coughing or sneezing. Now at 50 years old, she thought incontinence 

was just something that happens as you get older. She 

had already had the appropriate incontinence tests which were 

all negative for pathology. 

So we knew that mis-aligned pelvic joints, as well as muscles 

and fascia splinting and bracing were the cause of her incontinence. 

Alice is now quite happy jumping and dancing in her 

aerobics class without any mishaps. 

Yes, abdominal muscles and fascia can cause multiple problems 

in the pelvic region. And since we treat using Integrated Manual 

Trigger Point Therapy, you are assured that all the components 

of your pain issue are addressed during each treatment. We use 

Trigger Point Pressure Release (TPR), Deep Fascia Manipulation 

(DFM) and Joint Mobilization during every treatment. This protocol 

produces bio-chemical and proprioceptive changes in your 

body that significantly decreases or eliminates the pain. 

Look for upcoming articles on conditions that can slow you down. 

We can help you become pain free and live a more active life. Give 

us a call at 505-872-3100 and set up an appointment. Find out how 

the MyoRehab “Team Approach” can work for you. 


Esoteric Acupuncture– 

Is It for You? 

By Denise LaRosa, DOM 

All through my years of treating patients and self-examination 

of how healing actually occurs, I have found a modality 

of treatment that answered my questions and fulfilled my 

deepest desire to assist one in their personal journey towards true 

health and growth. 

Esoteric Acupuncture is a way of setting in motion the 

correct vibrational fi eld for accessing your higher levels of 

consciousness while releasing obstacles that are blocking the 

healing process. So why would we want to do this? A couple 

compelling reasons would be to have the experience of genuine 

connectiveness and to open up ourselves to various states of 

awareness where you just know things (4th dimension). 

So how is this accomplished? The primary focus with 

Esoteric Acupuncture is to assist healing on all levels; physical, 

ancestral, mental and emotional by utilizing Traditional 

Acupuncture Theory, the Hindu Chakra System and Sacred 

Geometry. 

From patients that I have been treating with this modality 

they have made comments like: “I can now feel the energy 

moving within my body”, I’m experiencing a stillness and 

peace in my life”, “I can now see things with more clarity”, “I 

have a distinct form of awareness, like something is present 

that wasn’t there before”, I feel more stable and open to life”. 

There are additional aspects gained from these treatments 

as well. Increased immune system function, reduced 

stress levels, increased energy and circulation throughout 

the body and release of stagnation from the physical and 

emotional levels. 

So is it for you? If you have the desire to awaken your highest 

spiritual aspects and move toward living a life of expanded 

peace and wellness, then I would guess it’s a yes! 

Dr. LaRosa has a part-time practice at Sanjevani Health and Lifestyle 

Center as well as providing professional and community workshops 

in the area of Chinese Medicine, Esoteric Acupuncture, Women’s 

Health and Sexuality.

Get a Grip – 

Get a Life!!! 

By Rev. Jac Blackman 

Many people find life and people diffi cult to deal 

with and are barely in control of their live—if 

at all. You have the ability to take back control 

of your life, but it is important to understand universal 

principles—such as the law of Cause and Effect, the power 

of your emotions, relationships with self and others, what 

prayer REALLY is, finding infallible guidance, and your 

birthrights of a really good life. 

These issues and more will be covered in the Foundational 

Class offered at the High Desert Center starting in September. 

Class start date and other information are on our website at 

hdcsl.org. 

We live in a time of evolution with amplifying energies and 

accelerating consciousness, and it is important to understand 

our relationship with the universe in order to live the fullest 

life possible. A constant of life is change, and it is important 

to get things changing in a favorable direction. 

Ernest Holmes, founder of Science of Mind, says, “Change 

Your Thinking, Change Your Life!” This is the same as Jesus 

meant when he said, “Judge not by appearances, but judge 

righteously.” Jesus taught us to not judge, so it is important 

to understand his statement. “Judging by appearances‘ 

which means believing things are as they are and you have 

no power to change it.” I say, “Don’t let the evidence get to 

you!” “Judging righteously” means perceiving the situation 

from a spiritual perspective and understanding that you have 

the power of the Word to change many situations in your 

life—since we have been created in the image and likeness 

of the Creator. 

Many people do not realize that fear is prayer in the wrong 

direction. Whether we care to admit it or not, we control the 

preponderance of our lives, and our thoughts and feelings 

and beliefs are the precursor of our lives. So with all your 

getting, get understanding!

Women’s Sensitive 

Bodies…Women’s 

Sensitive Hormones 

By Dr. Emil Faithe, Medical Intuitive 

Over-Nurturing Others Can Create 

Hormone Chaos 

You are Sensitive 

Women (and many men) often forget 

how emotionally sensitive they are. They 

forget how they “feel” everything, from 

everybody and everything, mostly without 

realizing. Simply put, you are sensitive; 

you are an Empath. As such, the energies 

of the outside world can profoundly affect 

your mood, energy levels, motivation, the 

functionality of your organs... and your 

hormones. And if you are one who overnurtures 

others while under-nurturing 

yourself, your body feels that too, and the 

result is often hormone chaos. 

Low Progesterone Levels Create 

Turmoil 

Low progesterone levels are at the 

root cause of thyroid dysfunction and 

weight gain, difficult or painful periods, 

fatigue, migraines, insomnia, anxiety, 

low mood, low libido, and much more. 

If you are woman of any age and you 

are having any of these issues, you likely 

have low progesterone levels. If you’ve 

had a hysterectomy, even a “partial” 

hysterectomy, you can count on it.

High Estrogen Levels Create Serious 

Issues 

Yes, low estrogen levels can cause 

hot flashes and night sweats. This is well 

known. What’s NOT well known is the fact 

that most women are running around with 

HIGH estrogen levels. High estrogen levels 

are a serious but commonly overlooked 

health problem that can lead to fibrocystic 

ovaries (PCOS), fibrocystic breasts, and 

endometriosis, and if left unchecked can 

lead to breast or ovarian cancer. 

Just Say No 

Using prescription hormones like 

Premarin, Estrace, Provera, Vivelle, 

Activella or any oral birth control pill can 

absolutely wreak havoc on your natural, 

sensitive progesterone and estrogen 

balance, and ultimately make things worse 

rather than better. Stay clear of these. So 

what’s a sensitive woman to do?

and BlackBerrys. Satellite television and the Internet 

bring us 24/7 entertainment and news from around 

the world as it happens. Increasingly we have more options, more 

frequencies, stronger signals. From instant messages to instant 

dinners, we want it all—and we expect it to be better and faster 

than last week. 

The tools and devices we use to inform and entertain us are taking 

a huge toll on our health and well-being. Our energy field is the 

blueprint for the physical, mental, and emotional bodies. If our 

energy field gets damaged, our health suffers. The electromagnetic 

frequencies of our high-tech world—from satellites, microwaves, 

cell phones, wireless Internet, TV and radio transmissions—bombard 

us three hundred thousand times per minute. Every electric, 

electronic, and battery-powered device produces EMFs (electro 

magnetic frequencies) as well. EMFs disrupt our bodies’ natural 

energy fields, attack our immune systems, and drain us of energy. 

As our electronic devices batter our energy fields, they add stress 

to our lives. Frequency overload can manifest in different ways: 

fatigue, depression, anxiety and headaches. As the immune system 

breaks down, our bodies become susceptible to problems such as 

allergies, asthma, chronic fatigue syndrome, and Fibromyalgia. 

Fortunately, you don’t need to move to a deserted island, but you 

do need to arm yourself with a positive energy field more powerful 

than the negative frequencies that bombard you every day. The 

Rejuvenizers® created by Dr. Phyllis Light are powerful energetic 

devices designed to protect and heal users from the harmful effects 

of EMFs, helping to keep the wearer in a positive, life-supporting 

energy field. You can be safe and protected wherever you are by 

wearing a Rejuvenizer®.

Oh, My Aching Back! 

Dr. Kirk Manson, Chiropractic Center for Rehabilitation and Relaxation 

This statement, “Oh, my aching back!” is one heard 

in many doctor’s offices around the country. Low 

back pain is the second leading cause of visits to a 

doctor, and the fifth leading cause for surgery. In 

the United States, the total treatment cost and lost work time 

is approximately 100 billion dollars a year. 

Why? Well let’s see what the culprits are? Although there 

are a number of causes of lower back pain, too numerous to 

discuss in our limited space, the main problem we see in our 

office are a misalignment of the joints in the back called a 

subluxation. This causes problems with proper nerve function 

and causes Myofascial pain which is a knot or tight band in the 

muscle tissue generating its own unique pain pattern. Most 

commonly, these two problems coexist with one another; each 

re-enforcing the other. 

The main question I am asked by patients is, “How did I 

get this problem?” Usually it is a combination of the slips, 

trips, and falls you had and thought you had healed up 

from. However, often even then these problems will remain 

unnoticed without something more to provoke the pain. 

Do you awake with pain? If so, have you considered 

one of the more overlooked culprits- that your bed could 

be part of the problem? Most people see their bed as simply 

the place they rest at night. Instead, think of your mattress 

as your orthopedic supportive device which allows you to 

awake feeling….rested! If you’re waking up with pain, it 

doesn’t matter how much time you spend in the bed if it is not 

supporting you. Also remember, the springs tend to wear out 

after a few years; creating a new set of problems (which end up 

hurting you instead of helping you). 

And how about those shoes? Do they support your arches, 

all three of them? How long have you had your favorite shoes? 

In order to be your favorite, have you had time to develop a 

relationship with them? But is it a dysfunctional one? What 

is the wear on the heel of the shoe look like? Is it even or it 

is worn on one side more than the other? How about those 

high heels? By increasing the angle of flexion of the ankle 

during walking, the stress along the joints of the ankle 

and feet shifts forward. This increase in stress on the ankle 

changes the gait and is transferred to the knees—leading to 

an increase in osteoarthritis of the knees and destabilization 

of the hip muscles. This re-enforces the subluxation previously 

mentioned. The trigger points in the gluteals increase as the 

body tries to stabilize your gait while your heels are moving 

around somewhat randomly. 

What about that purse or back pack you are carrying 

around with you? Purses should have as little as possible in 

them. I know you’ve read this before… but just think about it. 

The more you carry on one shoulder slung to the side (with the 

weight resting on those small shoulder straps which are pressing 

into the muscles in the upper back and shoulder trigger points), 

the more money you get to spend with doctors and therapists 

for neck and back pain and unresolved headaches. People of all 

ages are carrying back packs. The weight of backpacks should 

be limited to no more than 10 percent of the carrier’s weight 

according to the American Chiropractic Association. Studies 

show a significant shift in a person’s balance forward with a 

greater the percentage of weight someone is carrying. 

These are examples of how chronic or recurrent pain is 

often provoked by normal activities we take for granted. It 

is frequently the case that 2 or 3 activities during our day 

are enough to aggravate conditions such as lower back pain; 

resulting in years of unnecessary pain.

Clean Up Your Health 

with Colonics 

By Bill Haggard, LMT #2554 

(This is a paid advertisement.) 

It’s easy to be passionate about what helped save your life. 

Colonics proved invaluable to my health recovery over 23 

years ago. I’ve been a colon therapist now for 18+ years. 

It’s natural and refreshing to bathe or shower; a colonic is 

an internal shower. With 60% of your immune system in your 

intestinal tract (Jesse Hanley, MD), attention to colon hygiene 

could help your health. Cleansing with water supports your 

body’s normal detoxification and repair. Washing the large 

intestine assists other organs of elimination: the liver, lungs, 

skin, lymph and kidneys. 

One meal in, one meal out would make common sense. 

Yet in my experience, there is more to cleansing than regular 

bowel movements. Stress levels, insufficient water intake, 

processed foods, chemical exposures, travel, lack of exercise and 

unprocessed traumas can contribute to accumulation of toxins. 

Whatever is breathed, ingested or touches your skin can be 

absorbed. Think Twinkies and household cleaners. 

This is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I feel as 

though all of the stress of the last year is washing out of my 

body. I feel renewed. – Z.W., Albuquerque 

After the chemical inhalation at work, I had two years of 

brain fog and trouble reading. Thank you for dramatically 

restoring and even improving my health! – G.T., Colorado 

My clients do colonics for a variety of reasons. Those in good 

health use them as part of a cleansing program or for health 

maintenance. Athletes want an edge in their performance. 

Many with imbalances want relief from constipation, skin 

rashes, food poisoning, excess gas and more. For clients with 

serious conditions colonics can assist with pain relief/ increased 

comfort and help improve healing capacity.

Change Your Thinking, 

Change Your Life 

By Joy Lynn of Joyous Creations 

And yes, this applies to food as well. Many of my 

personal chef clients share their food journey with 

me and I have found that a lot of time is spent on 

“regretful” thinking, as I like to call it. If I had done this..., 

or if I had done that... then I would be “happy”, “skinny”, 

“wealthy”—well you get my drift. Or “if I could just...” Well, 

you can. Just say YES! And start making small shifts towards 

meeting your goals. 

Maybe YES! for you is creating space in your life by allowing 

us to cook fresh, tasty meals that you just pop out of your 

fridge or freezer. Maybe YES! for you is shifting to healthier 

eating. That could be something as simple as changing the 

way you flavor your food or being more conscious about the 

snacks you choose. Fresh herbs are a wonderful way to add a 

burst of flavor in a healthy delicious way. Experiment. Make 

a commitment to pick out one herb you have not tried before 

the next time you make a grocery run. 

If you love crunchy things and are looking for a healthy 

alternative to chips, try this crunchy kale recipe: Wash one 

bunch of fresh kale thoroughly and let it set out until dry. Then 

season with dry spice, spicy seasoning and/or sea salt. Place on a 

sheet pan and bake at 350 degrees for 12-15 minutes until crispy. 

For those of you who are already on Joyous Creations’ 

calendar for your holiday events, we thank you. For those of 

you who think it’s too early.... right now is the perfect time 

to schedule! We are happy to cater your home holiday party, 

office party, or provide you and your guests the food for the 

actual holiday which you celebrate. Also call us for ALL of 

your office luncheon needs.

How to Succeed With Your 

Back -To-School Budget 

and Worry Less About What Could be Lurking in the Lunchbox 

From the Whole Deal booklet at Whole Foods Market 

Our 365 Everyday Value® and 365 Organic Everyday 

Value® products are what your pantry and pocketbook have 

been waiting for. With value prices 365 days a year, our products 

are formulated just for us, meet all our quality standards and 

will change the way you shop at Whole Foods Market. That’s 

because we have it all—from flour and condiments to dairy 

products and frozen veggies. We also offer a wide variety of 

organic choices at an incredible value. Below are some products 

you might use to pack your child’s lunch and feel confident 

that there are never any hydrogenated fats, added sugars, 

artificial colors or flavors ever used! 

365 Everyday Value® Organic Fruit Strips 

An actual piece of fruit rules but, FYI these are made 

with real organic fruit—no added sugar or artificial colors or 

flavors. And they are Naturally Sweet! Varieties include Peach, 

Strawberry, Very Berry, Cranberry, Blueberry or Cherry. These 

are awesome! 

365 Everyday Value® Recloseable Sandwich 

or Storage Bags 

Two of the smartest tips for saving are in the bag: pack your 

own lunch and keep food fresh so it won’t go to waste. Even smarter, 

purchase bags that is free of phthalates and PVC (polyvinyl 

chloride). Choose from Sandwich bags or Gallon Size Storage Bags. 

Whole Foods Market Organic Lip Balm 

Heads up! No petroleum here! These are made with all organic 

plant oils, beeswax and Shea Butter, plus natural flavors 

to meet our highest standards (wholefoodsmarket.com/ 

premiumbodycare). Choices include Peppermint, Tangerine, 

Vanilla Honey or new Pomegranate Orange! 

365 Everyday Value® Organic String Cheese 

It starts with cows, living the organic lifestyle on family 

farms where family members themselves actually work. A 

co-op of these farms supplies the milk to produce our string 

cheese, and as part of the National Organic Standards, they 

never treat those honest hard-working cows with the synthetic 

hormone rBST. In fact, they go above and beyond organic 

standards in caring for their animals. 

The only three ingredients in this cheese are part-skim 

milk, salt and microbial enzymes (not animal enzymes). This 

cheese is an excellent source of calcium and a good source of 

protein for snacks and lunches. 

365 Everyday Value® Kids Cherry-Flavored 

Multi-Vitamin 

The American Medical Association recommends that 

every person take a multivitamin daily. Kids can get all the 

nutrients they need if they eat a balanced, healthy diet ever 

day with a variety of whole foods, but does that sound like any 

kid you know (or any of us, really)? A multi helps ensure they 

are getting the essential vitamins and minerals necessary for 

healthy, strong minds and bodies. 

While it’s easy to find fun and fruity supplements that 

taste good to kids, it’s the nutrients they need, not artificial 

colors, flavors and sweeteners. It’s also important that kid’s 

supplements taste good to them. So here’s the cherry on top: 

our chewable cherry-flavored multi has no artificial anything. 

What it does have—beyond the basics—are additional 

nutrients such as spirulina and broccoli powders, to provide 

extra support.

Supercharge Your 

Weight Loss with hCG 

By Philomena E. Marcus, CFNP 

If you want to lose weight in a healthy way, quickly and 

more easily than ever before, then an hCG program is the 

most amazing option you could choose! This incredibly 

effective program typically produces a pound a day in 

weight loss; and, in many cases, up to 2 pounds a day, without 

the hunger pains, weakness, or irritability normally associated 

with a low calorie diet! 

HCG increases metabolism while burning the fat (which has 

accumulated in various parts of the body). It works to reshape 

your body naturally, without exercise and yet avoids the 

hanging skin issues often associated with quick weight loss. 

What is hCG? 

hCG—Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a protein 

hormone that is naturally produced in a woman’s body during 

pregnancy at extremely high levels without negative side effects. 

For years it has been used mainly for fertility and other hormonal 

issues. Research now shows that hCG is found in every cell of 

the body. 

Philomena E. Marcus, CFNP 

Is hCG Safe? 

hCG is extremely safe. During pregnancy, women produce 

very high levels with no adverse effects. hCG has been used for 

many decades as a fertility treatment with much higher doses 

than used for weight loss. hCG only stays in the system for three 

days after the last treatment, is FDA approved and can only be 

obtained by a prescription. 

The hCG Story 

The use of hCG in the treatment of obesity was first 

discovered by the late British Physician, Dr. A. T. W. Simeons. 

After devoting years to researching patients who were suffering 

from obesity, Dr. Simeons first published a report on the topic 

in 1954, while practicing in Rome, Italy. Working with some 

obese patients on his hCG program, he noticed several important 

factors including the lack of symptoms one would expect from 

a patient on a very low calorie diet. For example, his patients 

had no headaches, hunger pains, weakness, or irritability as long 

as the low calorie diet was combined with hCG. Throughout 

his research with hCG diet injections, Dr. Simeons noted how 

patients lost significant amounts of weight while their bodies 

reshaped naturally without exercise, and without effort. This led 

him to discover how patients lost more fat tissue directly from 

adipose tissue accumulations, causing highly visible contouring 

of the body. (From www.hcgdietinfo.com.) 

Since Dr. Simeons’ discovery of hCG and the success rate 

of his hCG protocol for weight loss has been phenomenal. Dr. 

Simeons’ weight loss method is so effective that few changes have 

been made in his protocol despite four decades of new knowledge, 

and only recently has received the attention it deserves. 

*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration 

(FDA). This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. 

hCG is not recognized by the FDA as weight loss drug. hCG is FDA approved. 

Can the Integrated Family Wellness Center 

guarantee success? 

If the program is followed per instructions, you will absolutely 

see positive results! We are always here to provide counsel and 

support; however you have ultimate control of how committed 

you are to the program. Every patient who has followed the 

protocol has seen fast and effective weight loss. 

Call today, 505-293-1658, to schedule a consultation and see if an 

hCG program is right for you. We will answer all of your questions 

and are confident that once you have the information, you will 

join the ranks of tens of thousands, including the rich and famous 

who are experiencing weight loss the hCG way! Philomena Marcus, 

CFNP and the staff at Integrated Family Wellness Center offers a 

transformative, life-enhancing and holistic approach to your wellbeing 

and all of your health care needs! 


Spiritual Activism: Being Alive, 

Aware, and Awake 

By Rev. Kylie Renner 

Have you ever run into a person who is so Spiritual they 

are no earthly good? Doesn’t it seem like they’ve missed the 

point? The point of being here on the planet at this time can’t 

be that we should ignore the fact that we are here together on 

the planet. So what does it mean to be together, here and now, 

in this particular configuration that never existed before and 

will never exist again? Many people mistakenly believe that in 

order to remain Spiritual one must remain outside of worldly 

events, that to remain Holy one must steer clear of earthly 

matters. But what if being involved in the world is important, 

even necessary for Spiritual growth? 

And, if being involved in the world is necessary for 

Spiritual growth, how do we find a powerful path of 

Spirituality and Presence on the planet? For me, I have 

found that being alive, aware, and awake means paying close 

attention to the activity on the planet so that I can better see 

the condition in which things are happening in Spirit. I can 

see the exterior world as a reflection, mirroring the activity 

and condition of my own inner landscape, and the exterior 

world isn’t where change can take place. I can draw a pretty 

face on my bathroom mirror, and not change my own face at 

all. When I smile, my reflection smiles back. The same is true 

if I close my eyes to what is being reflected; I am still affected 

by what is going on around me, but I have closed my eyes to 

knowing its cause. 

So how do we interact with the world? I can vigorously 

campaign to bring about change, but if I do not first understand 

my own Spirit I cannot truly change a thing. I can stomp my 

feet, and claim injustice or close my eyes and deny it all, but I 

will be ineffectual, because all I will have demonstrated is that 

I am against the world. I will not have stood for something 

more. 

Ernest Holmes, the founder of Religious Science petitions 

us who seek an elevated Spiritual experience, to be FOR 

something and against nothing, and this can be one of the 

most difficult principles to both understand and implement in 

our lives. Being against something or saying “no” to it means 

that I’m still giving my attention to it, just in a different way. 

To be effective, I must focus my attention on what I am FOR, 

instead of letting my attention get derailed by what I am 

against. 

Standing for something more transcends all of our little 

“no’s” with a more powerful “yes”. It means that I am aware of 

the activity of Spirit and am willing to surrender my limited 

idea for myself and the planet to be able to experience more of 

the good that is already seeking me. It means doing my own 

inner transformative work so that I set myself free to experience 

joy, peace, fulfillment, and maybe even bliss. It is not the 

universe’s intention that we live in fear, or lack, or any sense of 

limitation. All around us, if we are looking with the right eyes, 

are reminders of infinite love, possibility, and abundance. A 

young child, the eyes of an elderly person, roses in bloom, a 

magnificent tree, a work of art, a community event—these 

reminders can allow us to move deeper into experiencing what 

it means to be truly human, TRULY Spiritual. 

Being aware of the activity of Spirit in our lives, is to be 

a Spiritual Activist…to see how we participate in it, and to 

stand for something more—a world that works for everyone 

in which all life prospers—a world in which generous sharing 

of heart and resources is the everywhere. Join us to activate 

Spirit in your life, live with purpose, and transform the world 

from the inside out.

TMJ and Chronic Pain, 

Plus Natural Pain Relief 

By Bill Wolfe, DDS 

SATURDAY APPOINTMENTS AVAILABLE IN ALBUQUERQUE! 

Approximately 40 percent of all healthy individuals 

suffer from chronic headaches, and one out of eight 

people suffer from headaches so severe that they 

cannot function normally. Often, these problems are 

related to a common cause of chronic pain: TMJ syndrome. 

TMJ stands for temporomandibular joint. This is the joint in 

the jaw that allows the jaw to open, close. move backward and 

forward, and from side to side. The term “TMJ Syndrome” refers 

to a malpositioning of the respective jaw structures and associated 

muscles. This condition results in muscle contractions, which 

are a factor in approximately 80 percent of all tension-related 

headaches. Some 75 million Americans are affected, but only 

about five percent are actually diagnosed correctly and treated. 

If you have any combination of the following complaints, 

you may be suffering from TMJ syndrome and related 

headaches: 

• Dizziness and/or lightheadedness 

• Ringing, buzzing, or clogged ears

• Spasm and/or tightening in the back of the neck, shoulders, or

• Clicking or popping noises’ when opening or closing the jaw 

• Inability to open the mouth fully 

• Locking of the jaw joint 

• Pain behind the eyes 

• Earaches and sinus pain 

• Loss of upper body strength with teeth closed. 

While this patient did not specifically suffer from TMJrelated 

headaches, her TMJ journey is compelling and 

may be of assistance to you: 

Dr. Wolfe: 

Before I came to see you, I had suff ered for 27 years. Various 

diagnoses (Meniere’s syndrome, neurological problems, “something 

akin to a form of epilepsy”, extreme vertigo and sleep apnea) were 

off ered, but no help. I was unable to walk across open spaces; had 

problems with driving; extreme sensitivity to light; a nervous system 

in a constant state of high alert; diffi culty with my neck; clinching 

and grinding of my teeth so that my back teeth ground down very 

badly. My social life was severely hampered. 

Although I saw numerous dentists over the years, and more than 

one of them mentioned that I may have a TMJ problem, no dentist 

addressed it. When I came to you, you knew quickly that my problems 

were related to TMJ. Finally I had a correct diagnosis! From 

the first day of treatment, I felt an easing in my jaw. Within a short 

time, I was walking unassisted and less reactive to light. Now I am 

enjoying an amazingly healthy life, without any of the prior restrictions 

or symptoms. I have been truly Resurrected! Thank you, thank you, 

thank you, Dr. Wolfe for giving me my life back!

Healing 

with Moxibustion 

By Linda Sullivan, DOM 

This powerful treatment stimulates circulation and a 

smoother flow of blood through the acupuncture points 

and throughout the body. It also produces a calming, analgesic 

(pain relieving) effect. When the skin is warmed by the 

moxibustion process, an anti-inflammatory response is initiated 

and the healing response is triggered. It’s an amazing therapeutic 

tool that’s been used with acupuncture for centuries. 

Moxibustion can be applied in dif- 

ferent ways; directly or indirectly. Direct 

moxibustion therapy involves the process 

of burning the dried herb artemesia 

vulgaris over certain parts of the body or 

acupuncture needles. This produces heat, 

Traditional Moxibustion 

which can penetrate deeply into the muscles 

Set from Ibuki (Japan) and acupuncture meridians. The fragrance 

of the herb travels through the meridians regulating Qi (life force) 

and blood, and expelling cold from the meridians. The process can 

beautifully resolve the symptoms of the common cold, abdominal 

discomfort (and other types of pain), diarrhea and muscle spasms. 

It also works well when used for urinary problems, phlegm in the 

lungs, poor digestion, nodules in the skin and arthritis. 

In conjunction with acupuncture, moxibustion therapy can 

also be very effective for many diseases and conditions including 

back pain, muscle stiffness, headaches, migraines, tendonitis, 

arthritis, digestive disorders, anxiety, and female health problems 

such as menstrual cramps, irregular periods, and infertility. 

In the hands of a skilled doctor of Oriental Medicine who understands 

where and how to apply it, moxibustion can be used 

safely and effectively with great results. To learn more about moxibustion 

and whether or not it could benefit, you, please call Linda 

Sullivan, DOM at 505-822-1490. 

Dr. Sullivan’s Acupuncture and Herbal Clinic is located at 5341 

Wyoming Blvd. NE, near Spain and she offers a wide range of 

services including Tung Style acupuncture, herb therapy, essential

When it was first published in 

1994, Women’s Bodies, Women’s 

Wisdom quickly became 

an international bestseller, and for the past 

fifteen years it has remained the veritable bible 

of women’s health. Now—fully updated 

and revised—Women’s Bodies, Women’s 

Wisdom was re-issued simultaneously as a 

Bantam Books Hardcover and a Bantam 

Trade Paperback on June 1, 2010 in tandem 

with her PBS special Christiane Northrup: 

Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom. 

In this revised and updated edition, worldrenowned 

and much-beloved women’s 

health expert Dr. Christiane Northrup 

shares the latest developments and advances 

that will maximize our potential for living 

well in our bodies today. Women’s Bodies, 

Women’s Wisdom, lets you take control of 

your medical options and powerfully demonstrates 

that when women with health 

problems change the basic conditions of 

their lives, they heal faster, more completely, 

and with far fewer medical interventions. 

Every chapter of this comprehensive 

guide has been reviewed for accuracy and 

includes the most up-to-date information 

covering an entire range of women’s health 

concerns. Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom 

provides a behind-the-scenes tour of 

the female body, and is a must-have for every 

woman interested in knowing how to 

truly thrive and flourish. 

Truly Alive: In your updated book, you 

talk about changing our thoughts and behaviors 

to create a healthy society. How 

do you suggest one begin to be more conscious 

in order to bring about this change? 

Dr. Christiane Northrup: The first thing 

people have to understand is that the system 

of western medicine is very limited. It 

is effective for accidents, but it doesn’t do a 

good job with chronic, degenerative diseases 

such as osteoporosis, arthritis, heart disease, 

cancer, diabetes and obesity. I heard a 

statistic recently that the average American 

man, woman & child uses 16 prescription 

medications to address issues that are 

largely stress related. We forget that conditions 

stem from the way we think about 

things! We get a headache and we think, 

“I’m so stressed at work,” or we feel a little 

depressed, and instead of realizing that the 

sadness indicates that there’s a need that 

isn’t being met, we go and get a prescription 

for Prozac. Western medicine concludes 

that disease is caused by germs and 

if we have a bacterial infection, we take an 

anti-biotic. What it doesn’t consider is that 

the anti-biotic kills not only the potential 

germ, it kills friendly bacteria in our bodies 

(naturally occurring mostly in our guts, 

but other areas as well) and so, the single 

bullet western approach ends up creating 

an imbalance and often other health issues 

as a result. The other thing we can do to is 

to become emotionally literate. The emotions 

of anger and sadness mean you have 

a need that is not being met. We live in 

a culture that suggests that anytime something 

hurts, we should get over it immediately 

and move on; that there should be a 

pill for it. Rather than doing the hard work 

of identifying the need (and by the way we 

have all been talked out of our needs since 

childhood, ‘Don’t cry, or I’ll give you something 

to cry about.’). Unmet needs remain 

in the body crying out for attention, and 

over time, if they are not attended to, the 

body will call our attention to that unmet 

need. And oftentimes ‘dis-ease’ is the end 

result. It starts with cellular inflammation. 

And cell membranes are the ‘brain’ of the 

cell. And, the cell membranes of one cell 

have the ability to communicate with all 

cells all over the body, almost simultaneously! 

We start to see the new paradigm; we 

start to see our bodies as a living organism 

in which one aspect of thought and emotion 

affects every other aspect of the body. 

TA: Could you please elaborate on this 

statement from the book, “Step 3: Respect 

and Release Your Emotions.” 

CN: Respect goes back to what we talked 

about earlier; which is that your emotion 

is there for a reason. It’s not because you 

are a flawed human being. Your emotion 

is trying to tell you something. The only 

way to move an emotion out of your body 

is to feel it. Feel it to heal it. All an emotion 

wants is to be respected and felt. And it will 

keep coming around over and over because 

usually the emotion is coming from an unhealed 

part of the physiology usually lost in 

childhood. This was a pain that you stuffed 

down because it wasn’t safe to feel it then 

and now it’s locked in time and space and 

needs to be released. 

TA: One of my favorite quotes of 

yours is “Regardless of our individual 

circumstances...each of us has inner 

guidance available now and always to 

create vibrant health”. Can you expand 

on that a bit? 

CN: We each have this inner compass; this 

inner GPS that tells us what feels good and 

what doesn’t feel good; what turns us on and 

off; what increases blood supply, what shuts 

it down. We can call it our, “inner guidance 

system, our inner being, our 6th sense, 

emotional intelligence”. You have the key 

to the ignition and you can drive your life 

down the road the way you want to go. But 


the moment you begin to give your power 

away; the moment you begin to think that 

doctors (or your mother or God forbid, the 

government) knows more than you, you are 

really in trouble. You don’t need to push up 

against that. You can work from wherever 

you are. More and more people are turning 

off the doom and gloom of what’s out there 

in the data sphere and choosing joy and 

choosing health; choosing to listen to their 

own inner guidance, because it’s the only 

stance that makes sense. It’s the one associated 

with better sight, hearing, immunity, 

cardiovascular function. You can choose to 

be pessimistic if you want to, but it doesn’t 

make any sense once you know the data. 

TA: Can you tell our readers a bit about 

the power of naming and why it is so 

important? 

CN: When you can name something, you’ve 

taken a felt sense (vague sense of something) 

and moved it from the body to the right 

hemisphere of the brain (the creative center 

that sees visually, spatially, that feels, etc., 

but has no language)—an idea that was not 

articulated across the corpus colusum into 

the left hemisphere which has language and 

has the ability to articulate something. Once 

I had seen this new model/old mindset experience 

over and over, it gave me a way to 

deal with it artfully. A beautiful example is 

Marshall Rosenberg’s Non-Violent Communication. 

In the book, he has a list of needs 

correlated with a list of emotions—I found 

this information life changing. The missing 

piece for me was that the emotion is there as 

our inner guidance system to tell us when 

we have a need. We don’t have a language of 

emotional needs in our culture, but when I 

look at the list of emotions and I look at his 

corresponding list of needs, it was complete 

paradigm shift for me. It gave me a way to 

teach people how to become emotionally 

literate. When you go around saying, “I’m 

overwhelmed.” Can you see how that isn’t 

going to help you? If someone says to you, 

“Do you need rest, food, reassurance? Tell 

me a story about what’s going on in your 

life emotionally and I’ll help you identify 

the need and how to get it met.” Now that’s 

helpful! Once you can name the need, you 

are free! 

TA: How can we become more aware 

of our intuitive (guidance, nudges, 

messages, leadings, etc.)? 

CN: We have to start with the desire to become 

aware of it and want to cultivate it. 

We then have to be willing to give it space. 

If you have filled your life every waking moment 

with TV or radio, or spending every 

moment online or communicating with the 

data sphere, it has your complete attention. 

Many people feel that sitting in meditation 

is the best way to quiet the mind but for 

others, going for a walk can be a great way of 

cultivating intuition because the rhythmic 

motion of the legs and arms tends to balance 

the hemispheres of the brain and then 

information comes in more easily. Whatever 

feels right for you to create the space; do 

that. Then you learn to look for the signs, 

which are everywhere. The more you look, 

the more comes in and then it gets really 

fun! The synchronicities are everywhere— 

we just don’t normally see them. But when 

you combine space with intention, it’s as if 

you start to get a direct line to the universe. 

Fabulous! 

TA: How can women begin to realize how 

our cultural programming affects our 

lower genital areas and can cause issues? 

CN: This is a beautiful question. Let’s take 

a moment to look at the mythology of 

western civilization, particularly the Judeo- 

Christian and the Muslim ethic. Women 

are created to suffer during the menstrual 

cycle and they shall bring forth their children 

in pain and suffering because Eve ate 

the apple. We are taught that the genital 

areas are not safe; they are ‘dangerous’. 

We are told in a million ways not to touch 

yourself ‘down there’ that it’s ‘dirty’, and/ 

or that total strangers will come up to you 

want to touch you ‘down there’. We get the 

idea that something is very peculiar about 

the lower area of our bodies. Then, we look 

at the statistic that one in three women is 

raped in their lifetime and about one in four 

is sexually abused and we can see why there 

is a problem around the genitalia. I’ve come 

to see that women store their pain around 

their g spots (the clitoris has roots that go 

from the outer genitalia right into the g 

spot—the sacred spot) and when you begin 

to touch that area, all kinds of emotions can 

come up. But when you get through that, 

by breathing and breaking up adhesions, or 

whatever needs to be done, then you can get 

in touch with bliss beyond anything you can 

imagine, because—the lower genital tract 

and the pelvic floor are the seat of life force. 

You can’t have a maximally luscious life if 

you cut yourself off from the waist down. 

This is the biological center for birth and 

creativity. Sexual energy is what created our 

bodies. That’s why sex sells. We hear about 

sex and our bodies wake up! This is what 

created our bodies – no wonder we are interested 

in it! You can actually devote orgasmic 

energy to the creation of whatever you want 

(a new job, a book, or the bettering of your 

relationship.) Let me be clear about this; I 

am a monogamous heterosexual woman. 

What I know about women is that most require 

a monogamous relationship in which 

they feel safe. That creates a solid ‘container’ 

for sexual energy. My approach is this; to feel 

more and more and more with less and less 

and less stimulation…to be in direct contact 

with life force; plants, trees, the air. We are 

sexual beings; that’s what we are! I am very 

interested in sexual energy for a dynamic 

force for good in the world. 

TA: You have talked about mammography 

vs. thermography. Why don’t more people 

know about thermography and why do 

you believe it is a good method for breast 

screening? 

CN: Mammography is a static x-ray type 

of technology, whereas thermography is 

a more functional test. What I like about 

thermography is that it measures heat in the 

body with a camera. There is no down side; 

no side effects. And it can detect a potential 

issue before it becomes ominous; giving you 

time to implement a program to turn things 

around (changes in diet, nutrition and exercise), 

before you get a cancer diagnosis. Statistically, 

40% of women who die in car accidents 

in their 40’s have some abnormality 

in their breast and the majority will never 

become invasive cancer. It’s something you 

will die with instead of die from. The new 

high resolution mammograms are unfortunately 

picking up too much ductal carcinoma 

in situ (DCIS) and telling women that 

they have breast cancer. And so there is great 

over treatment only because no one knows 

what else to do. That’s 

why I like thermography; 

but it’s not an established 

technology 

in most medical centers 

– yet. The cost 

of an annual mammogram 

and having 

it read is very profitable 

for the providers. 

Any diagnostic 

medical test that’s 

making huge amounts of 

money is going to work hard to own the 


modality and there are going to be struggles for any competitive 

test to make inroads. It hasn’t gotten a foothold yet because of the 

economics. 

TA: Could you describe the difference between healing and 

curing as you so eloquently wrote about in the first edition of 

Women’s Bodies, Women’s Wisdom? 

CN: Curing is what we expect drugs and surgery to do. So let’s 

say that you have chronic pelvic pain and you remove the uterus 

and the pain goes away. So you have ‘cured’ the chronic pelvic 

pain. You have not healed it. Because to heal it, you must go back 

and acknowledge the emotions, the pain, the feelings associated 

with chronic pelvic pain. Healing something is seeing the fullness 

of what it is caused by and then releasing it at the cellular level. 

You can give medication to mask symptoms and you can do surgery 

and remove things, but these do not ‘heal’ anything. I like to 

use medicine and/or surgery and emotional work together- which 

achieves curing and healing at the same time. So let’s say that 

you’re having surgery for a huge ovarian cyst (as a friend of mine 

did). She did a huge amount of healing around her relationship 

with her father; had a whole ceremony around going into surgery 

and released the ovary. When she came out on the other end, she 

was completely healed and cured! 

TA: Dr. Northrup, here is one more of my favorite quotes of 

yours. Can you speak to it? 

CN: “Adequate is not optimal.” That comes very specifically 

from the Vitamin D research. There are many other nutrients for 

which we could say the same thing. When people look at the RDA 

(recommended daily allowance for a nutrient) what you are looking 

at is a figure that the government determined that would prevent 

a gross deficiency disease. So if you take 400 IU of vitamin D 

(which has been the RDA for years), you will not get rickets, but 

you will not have high enough levels to have optimal health; nor 

would your immunity be strong enough to prevent breast or bowel 

cancer or interact with heart health. So when you look at optimal 

for Vitamin D, it’s looking like the amount you need to take is 

5000 IU daily. The new discussion for nutrition is optimal instead 

of adequate nutrition. We have moved from the idea from preventing 

deficiencies to what would be truly ideal, not just getting by. 

TA: Dr. Northrup, is there anything else that you would like 

my readers to know about? 

CN: The only other thing is my Facebook fan page. I love posting 

my most current ideas there. It’s a really fun place for me to have a 

temperature check with what’s going on; what people are thinking 

and so on. My page is facebook/drchristianenorthrup. 

Looking for a Portal 

to the Divine? 

You’re already standing in it, Part I 

By Jennifer Vaitkus, White Horse 

Recently, I was in England on a Sacred Sites Tour and 

one of our stops was of course, Stonehenge. This tour 

focused on feeling the energy of the sacred sites. Our own 

Spirit Guides also shared information about the sites. According 

to one Guide, Stonehenge was one of the planet’s many 

Portals, an energetic doorway into this dimension. 

Information from my guide, Sophia came through and she 

said that while Stonehenge is indeed a portal, the most powerful 

portals of all were our very own bodies. At that moment I 

knew I needed to know more and that it would turn out to be 

an important theme in my life. 

In a later meditation, Sophia began with saying that the human 

body is EXTREMELY powerful beyond what we now 

know. But before we understand the potential of our bodies, 

we must reclaim them. We must be present in our bodies and 

know that our physicality is Divine, in ALL forms. Many of 

us reject our bodies by continuously finding fault with them; 

they are “not strong enough”, “not healthy enough”, “always in 

pain”, “not attractive enough”, etc. Many of us are constantly 

operating from our minds and go for hours forgetting that our 

bodies exist. Some of us are so detached from our bodies that 

hours become years. 

If the first step to understanding the power of the human 

body is to reclaim it and be present in it, what can you do to 

facilitate this? Take time to listen and your body WILL tell you 

what it needs. I know that through dance, I am in my body and 

know my Divinity. 

Next time, I’ll continue with what I’ve learned from Goddess 

Sophia about the unseen power of our human bodies and where 

they can take us. Until then, begin to renew your relationship 

with your own incredibly powerful and beautiful body.

Amazing Results from Users of 

Breakthrough Anti-Inflammatory 

By Sunil Pai, MD – Integrative Medicine 

Bosmeric-SR TM available now at Sanjevani Integrative Medicine 

Health & Lifestyle Center — www.bosmeric-sr.com 

Since the last article about the development and launch of 

Bosmeric-SR, the strongest natural anti-inflammatory 

available worldwide, Sanjevani Health & Lifestyle Center 

has had overwhelming success with our patients and 

clients using the product. Following is some of the feedback we 

have received. 

The experience of a brain tumor patient, who after surgery 

was wheelchair bound and unable to walk on her own: After 8 

weeks of treatment with Bosmeric-SR along with our other treatment 

protocols, this patient is now walking unassisted. As clinical studies 

have shown (available in the research section of Bosmeric-SR.com), 

the patented extract of Curcumin C3 Complex and Boswellin Super 

reduce brain tumors and decrease the growth of cancers through its antiinfl 

ammatory effects. Bosmeric-SR is great post-surgical procedure, also 

following radiation and even chemotherapy. 

A 50 year old marathon runner who was experiencing 

increasing painful muscle cramping and joint pain after races 

experience: This patient started taking higher doses of acetaminophen 

(Tylenol), ibuprofen (Motrin) and naproxen (Aleve) without relief. She 

also started to experience severe stomach upset. She was concerned about 

the possible side effects of these drugs. We suggested she take 2 caplets of 

Bosmeric-SR twice daily after races and during pre-race training. She 

had relief immediately on the first day and then began using it daily. 

She can now compete without pain and her performance has greatly 

improved. She was so happy about her results that she has taken the 

Bosmeric-SR to her running club to share with her friends. She has also 

suggested it to her sister who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. 

Unlike acetaminophen (Tylenol) that can cause liver problems; 

ibuprofen (Motrin) that can cause stomach and kidney problems and 

aspirin that can cause GI bleeding; naproxen (Aleve) that can cause 

heart attack, GI bleeding and stroke (without any prior symptoms 

or use of the product), Bosmeric-SR has NO SIDE EFFECTS. In 

fact, it has a gastro-protective effect due to the clinical dose of 35% 

gingerols (35 mg). This protects the stomach for ulcer, gastritis and 

other irritation and helps those who have nausea or stomach upset. 

Furthermore, Bosmeric-SR is the only natural anti-inflammatory 

that is delivered in a sustained-release caplet to provide benefits up to 

8 hours. Fewer caplets provide longer relief and is safer for your health. 

The experience of a 60 year old store manager who fell off a 

ladder and injured his lower back, hips and legs: This gentleman 

was experiencing swelling, bruising and pain in the lower back, hips 

and legs and was opposed to taking pharmaceutical pain pills which 

just mask the body’s perception of pain but have no healing effects. He 

felt the effects of Bosmeric-SR immediately and was able to return to 

work sooner than he expected. He was so impressed that he comes in 

regularly to buy Bosmeric-SR for his friends and co-workers who are 

experiencing pain. 

The experience shared by a 40 year old female from a small 

town in Texas with painful periods and excessive bleeding due 

to fibroids and migraine headaches: This patient was prescribed a 

contraceptive pill that would regulate her menstrual cycle to 4 times 

a year along with prescription pain medications. After 1 year without 

relief of symptoms and an increase in fibroids, weight gain and 

worsening migraine headaches she came to Sanjevani for help. During 

her consultation, she had extreme pain and heavy bleeding and was 

given 2 caplets of Bosmeric-SR. Within 2 hours, her menstrual fl ow 

decreased to spotting and her pain completely disappeared, including 

her migraine. This was her first experience using natural medicines and 

since then she has been an enthusiastic advocate. In fact, she quit her job 

as a waitress and went to work at her local health food store. 

Bosmeric-SR is available at Sanjevani Integrative Health & Lifestyle 

Center, 7920 Wyoming Blvd NE, Suite B, Albuquerque 505-821-6300, 

or online at www.bosmeric-sr.com.

Empower Yourself Now! 

Learn to Channel 

By Betsy-Morgan Coffman 

For 21 years, I have been teaching people from all walks 

of life to embrace what’s natural about us. That would be our 

innate ability to “just know the truth”. Eventually the truth 

will surface. So, why wait? Empower and free yourself today. 

Learn to Channel! 

What’s the difference in channeling and being psychic? 

When you channel, you connect to guides or angels from higher 

dimensions that love you and feed you Universal information. 

When you are psychic, you connect to your own inner 

wisdom through clairvoyance, telepathy, clairsentience, or clairaudience. 

I like to refer to these 2 terms this way. Being “psychic” 

is ordering in, and doing “channeling” is ordering out! 

Which way will I learn when I take classes from you? 

BOTH! When you learn how to channel using the Orion 

Technology, your 7th chakra at the top of your head will open. 

Then, Orion actually lifts your energy to connect you to your 

personal channeling and healing guides. 

As their energy moves through your chakras, your chakras 

are re-awakened to their natural abilities and your innate gifts 

are restored. It’s very normal, very easy, and so comfortable!

Will I be able to do predictions for others and myself? 

YES! However, please be advised that some high level guides 

don’t do predictions. They prefer to offer options and guidance, 

and encourage the individual towards what is for their highest 

good…explaining the lessons they are learning and why. If it is 

available information, predictions are easy to receive. 

Can you teach me how to be a medium? YES! This may 

surprise some to hear this, but channeling is very similar to mediumship. 

Being a medium, one talks to people who are in heaven, 

or in their afterlife experience. Being a channel, one talks to 

Spirits who are having their own higher dimensional experience. 

Once you channel, you will see that it is not that different or 

difficult. Some of my favorite experiences are seeing people tearup 

as they reconnect with and speak messages of love from their 

family members in heaven on the first day of class! 

Is there a way that I can experience what you do as a 

channel before investing my time and money? YES! I am offering 

something new called “The 12 Mondays before Christmas” 

program where you can meet me and listen to me channel. You 

may ask a question that will be answered through channeling. 

Each Monday experience costs only $10 and lasts just over an 

hour. You can also call me at 505-275-4746 or email me at 

AskBetsyMorgan@Yahoo.com for more information. 

Is there a way I can hear you channel from the comfort 

of my own home and for free? YES! Tune into my radio show, 

“Betsy-Morgan Channels Live” every Monday, Wednesday, and 

Friday at 10am. It’s a blog talk station called Sedona Talk 

Radio. You can listen from your phone and call in with 

questions and receive free answers live and on the air at: 

347-994-2091. 

Hundreds of channels have successfully trained with me using 

the safe and effective Orion Technology…and I can train you, too! 

– All it takes is one fun-filled and life-altering weekend. If you 

have ever considered learning, if you have ever wondered if you 

could be psychic, 

Join Me Now! Saturday and Sunday – October 16th

Is there a way my friends in other states can explore 

channeling before signing up for a class? YES! Once a 

month I host a teleconference (telephone) class where people 

learn about channeling, meet one of their guides and receive 

a message of love. For only $20, anyone living anywhere can 

experience my INTRODUCTION TO CHANNELING.

Bosom Buddy 

By Dr. Carla Garcia, DOM 

Dr. Christiane Northrup laughingly says that we have 

been taught to think of our breasts as “two pre-cancerous 

lesions”. It’s humorous because there is truth in her 

statement. We’ve been taught to expect our breasts to betray us. 

They need to be held up in a wired sling in order to be attractive. 

They sag on us, the minute we age beyond our teens. They are tender 

and uncomfortable at least once a month for years and they 

have more than 300 names that have nothing to do with their 

function: ta-tas, hooters, knockers, melons….the list goes on. 

As this issue of Truly Alive is on the shelves, we will be reminded 

on a daily basis that October is “Breast Cancer Awareness” 

month—not “Breast Health Awareness” month. We’ve been so 

busy “racing for a cure”, for the past 30 years; that we haven’t 

taken time to learn about a breast screening tool that is able to 

detect suspicious changes at a very early stage, before there is need 

for “a cure”. 

Thermography is our “bosom buddy”. It measures the heat 

given off by our breasts/ body without “squishing or radiation”. 

Heat patterns vary with increased cellular inflammation which 

can indicate the beginning of cancer. Using thermography, we 

can do something about inflammation years before it becomes a 

disease. And, women are happy to have a painless, radiation-free 

screening that allows them to be pro-active in their health. A color 

image of your breasts makes it easy to see areas of inflammation 

(which can be improved with breast massage, exercise and/or 

reduced caffeine intake). 

The five views 

that are used in 

thermographic 

breast screening. 

In Dr. Northrup’s PBS special she says that thermography will 

become mainstream within the decade. She is usually right.

“Earthing” the Most Important 

Health Discovery Ever? 

By Dr. Carla Garcia, DOM 

The Earth has a limitless supply of negatively charged free 

electrons that neutralize positively charged free radicals. 

Free radicals are the “little buggers” that cause tissue 

damage and inflammation in our bodies. Chronic inflammation 

has been identified as the cause of many diseases; such as diabetes, 

cancer, autoimmune disorders and cardiovascular disorders. 

“Earthing” involves making direct contact with the Earth 

allowing electrons to flow from the ground into the conductive 

human body to neutralize free radicals, and reduce inflammation. 

Connecting to the Earth’s energy is as simple as walking barefoot, 

sitting/ lying down on the earth, or through conductive devices 

that deliver the healing energy of grounding into our bodies. 

Conductive devices enable you to ab- 

sorb the Earth’s energy inside your home 

or office. They conduct the Earth’s energy 

through the ground port of a properly 

grounded outlet or from a ground rod 

placed directly in the ground and send it 

to a conductive Earthing mat, pad or sheet specifically designed for 

human grounding. Earthing products conduct the actual frequencies 

of the Earth without any simulation. 

Numerous health benefits from grounding while sleeping at 

night include: 

• Decrease in infl ammation that reduces physical symptoms 

• Reduction or elimination of chronic pain 

• Improved sleep and reduction of sleep-apnea 

• Increased energy 

• Decrease in stress and stress hormones, leading to less anxiety 

• Thins blood and improves blood pressure and fl ow 

• Relief of muscle tension and headaches 

• Fewer hormonal and menstrual symptoms 

• Faster wound healing and prevention of bedsores 

Tap into the unlimited healing powers of the Earth’s energy by getting 

grounded. For more information or to purchase an Earthing device – call

Upper Respiratory Distress 

Got You Down? 

By Carol McGlauchlin, DOM 

Do you suffer from seasonal allergies? Are you coping with 

asthma symptoms or wheezing with exercise? How about 

tendencies to get chronic bronchitis or sinus infections – do these 

plague you? Good news! These issues can be treated effectively 

with Chinese medicine and Frequency Specific Microcurrent. 

Cupping works particularly well to relieve a variety of upper 

respiratory symptoms. Cupping involves the placement of glass 

cups on the skin in order to create suction. In Chinese medical 

theory, the suction helps to clear out stagnation and toxins in 

the area. For upper respiratory conditions, the cups are usually 

placed on the upper back. Regular treatments with cupping alone 

for kids with asthma or severe allergies can help to reduce their 

medications, and the good news is – no needles are involved! 

On the other hand, acupuncture has worked very well to help 

my patients with seasonal allergies to manage their symptoms 

during the various allergy seasons. Regular treatments during 

the symptom period work best for optimal results. With chronic 

upper respiratory disorders such as sinus infections, bronchitis 

and asthma, acupuncture can treat both the acute symptoms 

and the underlying constitutional factors that combine to cause 

the recurring symptoms. However, one common sense caveat is 

that a medical doctor should be consulted for serious disorders 

such as pneumonia or asthma. There are times when drugs are 

appropriate, and a medical doctor (preferably an integrative 

doctor – a physician who understands natural medicine as well as 

pharmaceuticals) can be of great benefit. 

Another treatment modality that can help with upper 

respiratory disorders is Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM). 

FSM uses electromagnetic energy in specific frequencies that 

match the vibrations of specific tissues and specific disease 

conditions in the body. An FSM program will run through a 

series of frequencies to address the various aspects of a disorder. 

For example, asthma involves inflammation and spasm in the 

bronchi. The FSM program for asthma includes frequencies 

for muscle spasms, inflammation and allergies (histamine) in 

the bronchi, as well as inflammation in the immune system as a 

whole, and finishes with “restoring vitality” in the bronchi. 

There are also a variety of herbal formulas that can help reduce 

symptoms and support balance in the constitutional factors in the 

body. When a patient has a tendency toward chronic disorders, 

it is important to address the underlying constitutional factors to 

help prevent future symptoms. 

Relief is but a phone call or email away! Call or email me today for 

a free consultation. I’m happy to answer your questions and help 

you determine if any of these modalities can help relieve your upper 

respiratory issues: Carol McGlauchlin, D.O.M, 505-550-8148.

Cold and Flu Season... 

No More Worries! 

By Sophia Trezza, DOM 

Snowflakes 

By Charlene Lewis, CH, CWK, CQT 

If you want to fi nd the secrets of the Universe, think in terms 

of Energy, Frequency and Vibration. – Dr. Nikola Tesla 

No one likes Cold and Flu season, but it’s inescapable. What 

if you could ZAP those pesky viruses with a little energy at specific 

frequencies? Well, you can!!! 

How you ask? With the WellnessPro! It literally destroys, 

using electro medical (frequency) technology, the illnesscausing 

“bugs” and aids the body in returning to its natural 

state of well being. The WellnessPro excels at addressing a 

wide range of viral, bacterial and fungal issues associated with 

colds and fl u. In fact, the WellnessPro is pre-loaded with 7 

programs, each with multiple precise frequencies, targeted at 

colds and fl u, as well as other programs that combat related 

symptoms like sore throat, itchy eyes, runny nose, congestion, 

headache, fever, body aches, etc. 

My clients have reported signifi cantly shortened cold/fl u 

durations, and my own daughter successfully counteracted 

clinically diagnosed H1N1—all with the use of the 

WellnessPro. 

This device, the #1 choice of health care professionals, offers 

a non-invasive, non-toxic, safe and effective alternative to 

drug therapies. The WellnessPro mimics the natural electrical 

stimuli inside us that assist bodily functions, including those 

needed for healing and health. 

No matter the extent of your health challenge, I do my best 

to provide personalized and caring treatments. Be it a simple 

cold or a troublesome bout of the flu, I will work with you to 

fi nd the WellnessPro answer that is right for you! 

WellnessPro—Returning health and wellness to every 

aspect of your life! 

To learn more, visit www.suncentermedical.com. 

Whether you are a practitioner caring for others, or you are your 

own advocate for good health, come see me, Dr. Sophia Trezza, 

DOM at Suncenter Medical Offices, a Complementary Medicine 

Clinic, to experience the WellnessPro for yourself. The possibilities 

are endless! 

You might be wondering what the title “Snowflakes” is 

all about. Once when writing an article describing what 

I do, I compared my clients to snowflakes. They are all 

beautiful, yet unique in their own ways. They come to me 

for various reasons; sometimes physical, sometimes emotional, 

sometimes spiritual and often a mixture. 

Everyone is different and everyone responds to different 

therapies so it is important to be able to offer a variety of 

alternative healing methods. I really wanted to be able to truly 

cover ALL aspects of a person’s health, i.e.; Body, Mind and 

Spirit. Following is a list of some of the therapies that I use: 

1. Holistic Kinesiology 

2. Natural hormone therapy 

3. Hypnotherapy and guided relaxation techniques 

4. Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) 

5. Light and sound therapy 

6. Essential oils / Flower essences 

7. Crystal healing 

8. Chakra and meridian balancing 

9. Energy and auric field cleansing 

10. Quantum Touch hands-on healing technique 

Because I am empathic, when a client comes in for an 

appointment, I can generally feel what therapies they need. 

Sometimes they come in for herbal/nutritional programs for 

various physical issues but more often they end up needing 

emotional help as well. Guided relaxation, hypnotherapy and/ 

or energy work help to release emotional blocks caused by old 

hurts and traumas as well as negative and limiting beliefs. 

I also see many clients who are sincerely trying to walk a 

spiritual path and to be as clear as they can be on their journeys. 

Guided relaxation, light and sound therapy and chakra 

balancing are very supportive for that. I also use energy healing 

to clear out old negative Karma that may be blocking their 

spiritual path and also to help release emotional blocks. 

If you are ready to move forward on your path or just want to feel 

healthier and happier call now for a FREE consultation.

Disaster or Opportunity? 

By Tina Gibson, RScP, Licensed Spiritual Counselor 

Mom, you won’t believe what has happened!” 

My son’s voice on the other end of the phone 

caught me off guard, and I braced myself. I’d 

heard that panicked sound before. “The huge 

metal patio cover…it’s in the neighbor’s yard—and electrical 

wires…dangling in the backyard.” These were not the words I 

was hoping to hear after an intense workday, but sure enough, 

last April’s winds devastated our yard, roof, and electrical 

wiring. 

“Why is this happening to me?” I heard my victim voice 

say. “Why me? Why now?” I repeated the question, internally, 

and in those first moments, I knew I had a choice. My internal 

dialogue teetered back and forth. This is an example of the very 

thing you teach, Tina. (Yes, I was talking to myself). You’ve got 

to walk your talk… and NOW! I took a deep breath and slowly 

changed my tune. Amazingly, the same words came to me but 

with different thoughts behind them. “Why is this happening 

to me?” I asked. I chose my words carefully; Let me see this 

situation differently. Let me see this situation not as a disaster but 

as an opportunity… as a blessing in disguise. 

Metaphysical teachings tell us “It is all Good; everything 

is in order,” but then when something goes ‘wrong’, we 

wonder what has happened. We hear phrases like, “Change 

your thinking; change your life,” and then when ‘bad’ things 

happen; we mentally beat ourselves up because somehow our 

thinking was ‘wrong’ because we created a mess instead, or so 

we have labeled it as such. 

Fault lies not in human beings but rather in how human 

beings have learned to judge themselves and life situations. We 

could all get together in one room and make two lists: things 

that are bad and things that are good. For the most part, we 

would all agree on the lists. But I would like to suggest that 

the destruction of my home be on the “good” list, and there 

would be nothing on the ‘bad’ list. I would like to suggest 

that loss of job, security, relationship, and even life, be on 

the ‘good’ list because when we open ourselves enough to 

intuit a bigger picture, a picture which includes other eternal 

dimensions, beings, and life, there may be situations we do 

not understand with our human minds, but there is nothing 

that we experience that is not for our best and highest good. 

The reason I suffer when a ‘bad’ thing comes to pass is 

because I have decided it is ‘bad’, and I refuse to let go of that 

decision. Things are not going my way; my life stinks…but only 

because I’m attached to life being a certain way, the way I 

learned it was supposed to be when I was growing up, the way 

I have judged ‘right’. 

These days, humans are experiencing many changes which 

are happening quickly. I believe we are being called to let 

go of our attachments, including judgments, beliefs, things, 

and people in order to ride with the flow of change. We are 

being called to surrender to our Wholeness, accept ourselves 

completely, and live fully on the planet…without judgment. 

Seeing good in everything and everyone is expansive. 

Resistance is what causes pain. 

The money received from my insurance company, along 

with monies from an unexpected second income source 

(another blessing), allowed me to renovate more than my 

backyard. Two bathrooms and kitchen have been revamped as 

well. And just like my remodeled kitchen, sometimes we have 

to go through the torn up stages before the new, remodeled 

‘good’ shows its face. Sometimes the blessings take time to see. 

If you have stories – disguised blessings, letting go of attachments, 

dealing with changes – and would like to share, as I take 

more advanced steps towards finishing a book, I’m turning to 

others for personal testimonies. Please let me hear yours.

Do You Know What Is In 

Your Water? 

By George Keanna, DDS 

The New Mexico Environmental Department 

(NMED) and the New Mexico Department of 

Health (DOH) worked together since 2006 to 

develop a “Mercury Reduction Plan” for New 

Mexico. This House Memorial 13 recommended the following 

to limit public and environmental mercury exposure from the 

Dental Profession; 

Avoid use of dental mercury amalgam in 

vulnerable patients in the following ways: 

1. Avoid placing, removing or polishing amalgam in the teeth 

of pregnant women, or women who may become pregnant, 

as the developing brain of the fetus is the most sensitive 

receptor to mercury toxicity; 

2. Avoid using mercury to restore children’s teeth as their developing 

central nervous systems are particularly susceptible 

to mercury impairment; 

3. Avoid using mercury in other vulnerable patients including 

those with kidney disease, central nervous system disorders, 

autoimmune disorders, and allergic/chemical hypersensitivity, 

and breastfeeding women; and 

4. Avoid placing amalgam in patients with other kinds of 

metal surfaces in their mouths. 

Minimize exposures to airborne mercury 

in dental offices. 

1. Promote the use of methods and equipment to reduce the 

exposure to mercury vapor in dental patients and staff; and 

2. Inform dental practitioners of the health and environmental 

risks of mercury exposure... 

...All forms of mercury are toxic. All sources of mercury 

exposure are cause for concern. Mercury affects the human 

brain, kidneys, liver and cardiovascular system. Because mercury 

impairs the development of the brain and nervous system, 

unborn and young children are particularly sensitive to 

mercury toxicity. In adults, mercury can cause nervous system 

problems and have adverse effects on the cardiovascular system….” 

(http://www.nmenv.state.nm.us/Special/MercuryTF-ReportFinal_11_27_06.pdf) 

It took four years to happen, but on July 1st, 2010 New 

Mexico joined the growing ranks of states that mandate that 

dental offices have mercury separators systems attached to 

their water filtration systems. 

...Amalgam particles enter the wastewater from dental 

offices when dentists remove old amalgam fillings or place 

new fillings. What most in the dental community do not 

understand is what actually happens to the amalgam/mercury 

they discharge, which ends up in the sludge at the sewage 

treatment plant. Any amalgam/mercury (or other hazardous 

waste) received at the sewage treatment plant is either 

incinerated, land-filled, or made into fertilizer pellets, which 

are land-applied on lawns and gardens and sold to farmers 

for their crops. In every case of disposal, the mercury in the 

amalgam will be discharged to the environment. According 

to the ADA, the dental industry uses approximately 35 tons of 

amalgam annually. It is estimated that 29.7 tons of mercury in 

the form of amalgam are discharged to the internal wastewater 

systems of dental facilities annually during amalgam placement 

and removal—and it should be noted that a “mercury-free 

dentist” (that is, one who places only non-amalgam fillings) is 

not truly mercury-free if he or she removes amalgam fillings 

and allows that mercury to be discharged down the drain... 

(http://dentalaegis.net/Publications/Inside_Dentistry/ 

article.aspx?id=34857) 

These mercury separators can reduce the dumping of 

mercury amalgam products back into the public water system 

by over 95%. This is only one components of being a ‘mercury 

safe’ dentist. There are many other protocols and devices that 

need to be used to further protect the patient, the staff, and 

the environment. 

This task force took notice of the deleterious environmental 

effects of mercury. The health effects are still being investigated. 

When there is a controversy isn’t it better to err on the side of 

the greatest level of safety and not wait years to find out that 

a material, like mercury amalgams, have deleterious effects in 

the human body as well? 

Mercury amalgams are not the only source of mercury 

exposure to the public and the environment. 

Even though it took four years to implement, I still applaud 

the DOH and NMED for bringing public awareness to the 

environmental and health problems associated with the 

varying uses of mercury in our society. Now mandates have to 


e made for ‘safe’ manipulation of mercury amalgams in the 

dental practice as it pertains to the patient, the staff, and the 

doctor. My next issues will address what we do at our office, 

and all ‘mercury safe’ dentists do, to protect all parties involved 

from the deleterious problems of mercury both in the dental 

office and outside it. By the way, our office has used a mercury 

separator since 2001.

Denying Your Pain 

= More Pain Later 

By Rory Armstrong, HAT, LMT #5776 

A 

woman came in for a treatment suffering from lower 

back pain. She complained that she hadn’t been able 

to sleep through the night for a few weeks and awoke 

time and again with the pain. As a young but heavy woman, 

she was concerned about her future health and was sitting in 

quite a bit of fear. 

Instead of getting right into a deep bodywork session, we 

started with a Reiki treatment which lasted about 2 hours 

long. Some gentle physical movements were integrated here 

and there and the treatment finished with Reiki at the end. 

The physical movements brought about pain responses and 

pain sights were revealed, and we focused on her goal of 

finding and releasing the anxiety around sleep. 

Reiki is extremely gentle and can provide powerful treatment 

for those who are sensitive or in crisis mode. Like other 

energy treatments, Reiki can assist the client in receiving 

new understanding of what is possible and stimulate a shift. 

After the fi rst session, she reported that she had slept 15 

hours that fi rst night. The next session 10 days later was 

about 30 minutes shorter, but showed a consistent response 

to treatment. She called and scheduled to see me in month; 

sharing that her sleeping pattern was more reliable and her 

dreams had been more vivid. 

During our 3rd appointment, I found that her pain 

threshold had increased. I asked her what was different in 

her life. She replied, “My husband wasn’t as reliable as I had 

wanted him to be, so I divorced him! Ever since your first 

treatment and the divorce, I have slept better and have a 

confi dent new outlook on life.” I am not advocating that all 

of you reading this should dump your spouses! What I hope 

to project in spirit is…since we seem to get caught up in 

our lives and often feel challenged to find comfortable ways 

to cope, get some good bodywork/or massage. And don’t 

forget to exhale.

Relax While 

You Detox! 

By Mickey Sutton & Ina Stewart 

Why Detoxify? 

Detoxification is an essential step in improving your overall 

health and appearance. When we ingest, inhale and consume 

toxins (such as alcohol, pollution, processed foods, medications, 

etc.), the body’s natural response is to protect the internal organs 

by trapping the toxins and storing them close to the surface of the 

skin, cushioned in water and fat cells. The toxins and extra water 

in our fat cells increase the appearance of dimpling, inches, and 

poor skin tone. The Herbal Body Wrap can help address all of 

these areas as the herbs travel in through the pores, trapping the 

toxins, and encouraging their safe, natural release out of the skin 

through the pores. 

The 27 herbs in our Body Wraps have many healing 

properties and our clients’ results have amazed us. While being 

totally wrapped in the herbs, they absorb into the lymphatic 

system. While results are different for each person, chemicals, 

formaldehyde and Agent Orange have been diminished. Some 

clients have reported emotional and spiritual transformations 

during the wraps. Come in for your own personal experience. 

Footbaths extract toxins naturally, boosting the immune 

system to help overcome the tiredness, headaches, colds, arthritis 

and other ailments brought on by toxins. And the soak soothes 

your feet and raises your energy level. In warm weather, footbaths 

are enjoyed in our covered patio area adorned with many flowers. 

Hot Body Wraps and Ionic Footbaths are excellent choice 

for detoxing, and they can be done together or separately. We are 

just a leisurely drive to the North Valley away…

You Can Experience the “I AM” 

Nature Within You Now! 

By Master Stephen Co 

The Soul is a spark from the universal flame, which 

some call God. God puts forth this portion of Himself, 

which then incarnates, or takes a body, in the lower 

plane, the earth. As an extension of God, our Soul is 

in a state of permanent health, a state of unchanging, prolonged 

awareness and peace. We may not be consciously aware of it, but 

we inherently know that this state of peace resides within us. 

As we seek health, success and happiness in the physical 

world, we are often oblivious to how close true health, success 

and happiness are, because we don’t look inward. But when 

we become aware of the limitations of our physical body and 

the imperfections of the material world—as we must inevitably—our 

innate knowledge of this inner state of peace and 

health is stirred. 

This is called spiritual restlessness. There are many ways 

spiritual restlessness is awakened. It is commonly prompted 

by a life crisis, such as a reversal of fortune or tragedy that is 

difficult to explain-for example, disastrous material loss or the 

death of someone close. It is often felt when we have a premature 

brush with mortality ourselves, or when we near the end 

of our life and seek to put things in order. 

Or, we may feel it after we attain our worldly goals-success, 

fame, prosperity, or in the case of our focus here, physical 

health-and then find ourselves wondering if “that’s all there 

is.” It may arise simply as a result of exploring physical health 

through alternative or esoteric practices, as you are doing with 

this book. Or, it may be awakened naturally in those who are 

particularly sensitive or spiritually developed. 

Regardless of how we come to this awareness, we all have 

within us this intrinsic need to “return to the source,” to have 

contact with our Soul to access that inner peace and health. 

Below is a powerful meditation that will allow you to 

experience a glimpse of your Soul’s Divine Nature 

1. Sit down in a darkened room, close your eyes, and go 

through your physical relaxation routine. Perform seven 

cycles of pranic (slow and deep diaphragmatic) breathing. 

Be aware of your whole body. 

2. Put your attention on your feet and legs for several seconds. 

Continue pranic breathing, and then see and feel them 

disappear. 

3. Put your attention on your waist, chest, and torso for several 

seconds. Continue pranic breathing, and then see and feel 

them disappear. 

4. Put your attention on your hands and arms for several 

seconds. Continue pranic breathing, then see and feel them 

disappear. 

5. Put your attention on your head for several seconds. 

Continue pranic breathing, and then see and feel your head 

disappear. 

6. Perform several cycles of pranic breathing as you are aware 

of your body “not being there.” 

7. Silently say, “I AM not the body; I exist independently of the 

body.” Be still for about 30 seconds. 

8. Visualize a reddish-pink silhouette or outline of your 

physical body around 6 ft. above the ground. 

9. Silently say, “This is my emotional body. It contains all 

emotions that I have ever created or experienced. It allows me 

to feel and experience emotions and feelings, but it is not me!” 

10. See it fading and vaporizing into nothingness. 

11. Silently say, “I AM not the body, I AM not the emotions. I 

exist independently of the physical and emotional bodies.” Be 

still for about 30 seconds. 

12. Visualize a bluish-yellowish silhouette or outline of your 

physical body 6 ft. above the ground. 

13. Silently say, “This is my mental body. It contains all thoughts 

that I have ever created or experienced. It allows me to think 

and experience thoughts and ideas, but it is not me!” 

14. See it fading and vaporizing into nothingness. 

15. Silently say, “I AM not the body, I AM not the emotions, nor 

the thoughts. I exist independently of the physical, emotional, 

and mental bodies.” Be still for about 30 seconds. 

16. Silently say, “I AM not the body; the body is a vehicle of the 

Soul. I AM not my emotions or my thoughts; they are just 

products of the Soul. I AM not even the mind. The mind is the 

just the instrument of the Soul. I AM the Soul! I AM a being 

of Divine Intelligence, Divine Love, and Divine Power. I AM 

connected to God. I AM one with God. I AM one with All. I 

AM the Soul!” Be still for three to five minutes and simply 

let go. 

17. Slowly open your eyes, take several pranic breaths, and 

stretch. 

As you perform this exercise, you will experience inner 

stillness, peace and extreme mental clarity. Practice this meditation 

everyday especially when you are going through physical 

or psychological crises. It will infuse your entire being 

with Divine Love, Light and Power!

Blissful Spirits Hot Yoga Studio does not exactly offer 

a fountain of youth, but many practitioners of hot 

yoga and vinyasa believe the practice is a healing one 

and will make you strong and youthful over time. As the 

owner of Blissful Spirits, I myself have found healing from 

practicing hot yoga and vinyasa and I opened the studio to 

share it with others. 

Hot yoga and vinyasa flow postures are practiced in hot 

temperatures and humidity designed to match Calcutta India, 

where this method was developed. The heat helps students 

safely stretch and eliminate toxins from the body. The studio 

also teaches the Barkan Method of hatha yoga postures. Head 

instructor Rebecca Widmayer was the first teacher of Jimmy 

Barkan, but at Blissful Spirits she is now developing her own 

style, “Sacred Hot Yoga” which also incorporates the teachings 

of Paramhansa Yogananda and his lineage of yoga masters. 

“Our hot yoga sequence includes pranayama, affirmations, 

chanting, and other techniques to help master the flow of lifeforce 

through the body”, Widmayer said. It is mastery of the 

life-force that helps students maintain strength, youthfulness 

and beauty. 

In addition to the physical postures, Widmayer also 

presents workshops on Yogananada’s teachings about prana, 

chakra alignment, the eight-limbed path of yoga, affirmations, 

chanting, and visualization. Sacred Hot Yoga is not just 

physical exercise. The postures prepare your body and mind 

for advanced yoga techniques such as meditation. 

In addition to hot yoga, the studio also offers Nia classes 

through certified Nia White Belt, Jennifer Applegate, who 

also teaches hot yoga. Nia is a blend of dance, martial arts, 

and yoga, the regular practice of which offers weight loss, 

cardiovascular conditioning, stress relief, body integration, 

pain management, and improved self-image. 

Blissful Spirits is located at 4300 Paseo del Norte NE in Albuquerque,

The Secret to Radiant 

Physical Health is Not 

What You Might Expect 

By Louise Swartswalter, ND, CBS, CNHP 


Do you suffer with pain, low energy, and lack of sleep, allergies, 

and auto-immune issues? Are you tired of being tired? 

Frustrated with western Medicine? Have you been doctor 

hopping with no help or answers? 

If 

i 

of pain, fatigue or frustration? We work with the whole 

this sounds familiar, then it is TIME to receive help 

and know the truth! Why experience another minute 

body using a variety of modalities to literally peel back the layers 

of imbalances and allow your physical, emotional and spiritual 

bodies to heal at deeper subconscious levels. Using a combination 

of biofeedback, energy work, naturopathy, NLP, integrations and 

detoxification, we work as detectives, “cracking the case” so that 

you can be who you came here to be. 

“How many well people would be on this earth if they could 

be hooked up to this program? There would be less disease. This is 

amazing! I felt something when you worked on the kidney and liver. 

Thank you!” – M.L., Albuquerque 

Cancer and disease begin in the energy body and then show 

up in the physical. Without addressing all the bodies and the 

mis-alignment, the dis-ease often returns years later. In western 

medicine, they call it remission because they are uncertain if the 

dis-ease state will “return?” Whatever modality you choose, it’s 

important to know that your inner work holds the key. What do I 

mean by do your inner work? Come to my workshop at the Truly 

Alive Health and Spirituality Fair on October 30th at 2:00 PM 

and find out the secret to Radiant Physical Health! 

“Dear Louise, I felt so amazingly different after our session. The 

anger and frustration were softened and I feel more space around 

everything. I have been under lots of stress with moving and the new 

job and I feel like I can deal with everything better. I am relating 

to the world like I have never before. I could get addicted to that 

machine! I feel like it was the “new Doctor.” I want to come back. I 

feel like I accomplished more in one session with you than I have in 6 

months of therapy. Thank you!” – E.H., Albuquerque

Astrological Forecast: September/October 

John Clinton | Psychic Astrologer | 505-489-1122 

30+ Years Experience Interpreting Stellar Events 

Aries (3/21-4/19): SEPTEMBER begins with work 

filling your days and passion completing your nights. 

It is self-evident that your partner is also your friend 

as proven this first weekend. Refine all animal instincts 

after the 8th. This is also a good time to begin a new health regimen. 

Compulsive attachments could form this month. A truth will be revealed 

by the 13th. As Pluto turns forward in its apparent motion 

that same day, you may begin to see your career turn around for the 

good. Psychic dreams and a need for lasting romance are this month’s 

keynotes. OCTOBER serves to plug the leak in your brain. On a 

psychic level that is what occurred. Recently, something required 

your complete focus. Now, you seem back to normal after resting. 

You may be tempted on the 7th and this could lead to a connection 

with someone new. That day and the 8th show a quick change 

from one to another. The powers of Venus are amplified during this 

month. So, you are correct to be absorbed by your work, but there 

are so many other things, like romance, drawing you away from your 

endeavors. You may not be ready for involvement ‘til next month. 

Taurus (4/20-5/20): In SEPTEMBER it’s a flood 

of feelings filling fall full of fuel for frivolous frolicking 

in forests of beauty. Fortunately, this behavior is carried 

out with someone special. Even though love is a form 

of insanity, you are able to function sanely. The 4th shows how our 

brain can be our worst enemy. Logic “over-ride” by the brain is not 

always better than our common sense. This is a hot month filled with 

beauty. Only the truth can foil your plans, yet only the truth can set 

you free. You will learn the value of the human touch in a different 

way. On the 8th of OCTOBER, Venus begins a rare retrograde period 

lasting 40 days. It’s a time to devote yourself to your devotions. 

Partnership matters fill your mind. You may have your relationship 

under your microscope this month. What you see could change 

things. While romance is on hold and finances seem irrelevant, you 

can truly discover a deep truth. Do you like the path your life is on? 

Is it really the right path? Just something to ponder. Be very aware 

of the actions around you on the 24th. Actions indeed speak louder 

than words that day. 

Gemini (5/21-6/21): In SEPTEMBER there is a 

ray of hope shining from someone you respect. Most 

of The Twins will experience romance in all its forms 

this month. There are always 10% of the people who 

do not fit their Sign. Some Geminis have only one personality. After 

this first week of carnival-style carnivorousness, it will be time to 

winterize your home. After the 12th you will see your life beginning 

to move forward again. You have just finished 3 weeks of soul searching 

where matters of karmic importance have been examined. Career 

matters take a back seat to health and home. OCTOBER is creative 

and romantic. Your love life stabilizes and after the 20th and that 

inspires your work efforts. The 7th is perfect for a vow of devotion. 

The rest of the month is filled with immovable objects and people. 

You are highly motivated, but others are stuck or unwilling to move 

forward with you. Just do your own thing. Explore your creativity. 

As the month winds down, you will be working hard. Guard your 

health by changing your diet and adding supplements. Choosing one 

love interest is not a limitation. It’s your salvation. 

Cancer (6/22-7/22): SEPTEMBER starts with 

a tightness in the jaws caused by a stubborn attitude. 

Don’t keep it inside. Talk to someone. Labor Day is a 

gift of appreciation from your boss. May the old methods 

pass and the new management techniques bring more peace and 

self-respect to all who labor. The New Moon of the 8th signals an 

end to your introspection. After the 12th, you will have benefitted 

from the understanding of your thought processes. As Libra begins, 

you will be prepared to react intellectually rather than your usual 

emotional irrationality. OCTOBER continues your practicality. 

Your plans are in place to deal with home matters. The summer was 

rough in some ways, but the fall looks decidedly better. An old flame 

could be part of this fall experience after the 8th. Your creative juices 

are flowing and this will help you prepare for upcoming changes at 

work or to your health. You want to understand love issues, but your 

greater need is for permanence in your residence. You are yearning to 

settle down, but where? The 26th is your most powerful day. Don’t 

let it upset your good plans. 

Leo (7/23-8/22): SEPTEMBER is usually a time 

for self-aggrandizement and financial progress for the 

Lions. There’s something stuck on your mind as the 

month begins, but by the 4th that fixation gets erased 

by the romantic harmony of a partner. A small crisis on the 8th won’t 

cast a shadow for very long. Money is good after the 12th. Health 

answers become clear on the 13th. Home entertainment is great after 

the 14th. The 18th presents a challenge to your newly acquired state 

of mind. Something needs to end. It detracts from a higher state of 

mind. OCTOBER starts with you in a serious state of mind. You 

know what needs to be done, so use your willpower to get ‘er done. 

This month is about communication (that includes travel). You can 

keep the scales tipped in your favor, but it takes some conscious effort. 

Are you up for it? You can stay home and eat grapes or you 

can respond to a higher calling. Action seems risky, but you win 

by month’s end. Proper choices of action become a real confidence 

builder. Love is by your side by the 28th. 

Virgo (8/23-9/22): SEPTEMBER opens quietly for 

you. You are deep in thought. You are perfecting your 

internal processes. By the 12th you are done. You are 

perfect again (though actually, you always were). Partly, 

you are focused on finances. Now, your financial outlook can be adjusted 

by external actions. Nervous energy is yours on the 14th. You 

may not be showing your political concerns. The Full Moon of the 

23rd lights up the hidden elements which need to be eliminated. 

Watch finances at month’s end. OCTOBER starts with opportunities 

flying by you like skaters on the bike paths. You are blocking your 

own progress the first week. Let go of haunting thoughts. Sell shaky 


stock holdings by the 8th. Earning power is yours from the 3rd to 

the 20th. Your higher nature could be missing this month, but the 

time is perfect for selfishness. Travel is good by the light of the Full 

Moon after the 18th. You yearn to journey to contact an old lover. 

Well, what’s stopping you? 

Libra (9/23-10/22): SEPTEMBER seems to shine 

as you become surrounded by beauty of your own 

choosing. Psychic dreams fill your nights. Your waking 

hours are energetic and industrious. The 4th is a healing 

day. Labor Day is for resting and fact-checking. The 7th has a previously 

overlooked piece of information. The New Moon on the 8th 

represents the end of a yearly cycle and the Full Moon on the 23rd 

brings a choice for the year ahead. Choose what is logical for the year 

ahead. You represent peace and the 21st is the UN day of peace...perfect 

for the 1st day of Libra. OCTOBER is the Libran birth month. 

Be sure to celebrate all 30 days of your Sign. Your new yearly cycle 

begins on the 7th. Venus goes retrograde the next day. That indicates 

that your year begins with a review and a withdrawal from the world. 

Factor in Saturn and your slight depression makes sense, astrologically. 

This stems from your financial issues which affects your selfesteem. 

Just keep a broader perspective. The 25th has a message for 

you. Speculate on the 26th. Your verbosity returns by the 28th. 

Scorpio (10/23-11/21): SEPTEMBER has a duality 

to it. Like a tiger about to spring, you need to lie 

low the first two weeks. The 2nd half of the month is for 

chasing down your desires. The 13th calls for personal 

changes to capture your objective. There are spiritual requirements 

involved. A former lover may return around the 18th. This is a karmic 

situation, but fun. The Full Moon of the 22nd/23rd requires a 

health choice. The 25th is difficult, but friends are there to inspire 

you. If at first you don’t succeed, try thinking. OCTOBER has a 

New Moon on the 7th which signals a quiet time ahead. You tend 

to withdraw from the world even though aloneness seems pervasive. 

Your thoughts turn to former romances. Finally, you reemerge on 

the 20th. You have a lot to say now even though you want to beat 

some dead horses. You can speak of the past, but the future is a better 

focus for you. The Full Moon on the 22nd brings a personal revelation. 

Your words and actions are largely ignored by others, but isn’t 

it good to vent? 

Sagittarius (11/22-12/21): In SEPTEMBER 

Jupiter may try to pull you away from the fun things 

and a new romance. You are asked to look within your 

soul regarding these matters. There is something very 

shocking to learn. This discovery is somehow facilitated by a friend. 

Changes are possible from this very karmic message. Things will balance 

out by the 23rd. Keep your eyes peeled for true love that day. 

I can’t lollipop this up...the truth is, that you must be very careful 

to avoid injury from mid-September through the whole month of 

October. Actually, you will do best during OCTOBER by staying 

and playing alone, but not all the time. You are a social animal/human, 

after all. Mars will stimulate your social urges, but it can overenergize 

one particular friend. Keep the straight jacket handy. Career 

matters need a redo. There could be trouble when an ex-lover returns 

around the 8th. You are in no mood for starting over. A decision has 

to be made about a friend on the 22nd. The 28th is energizing, but 

you still need lots of solitude. Home is your best place to meditate 

and reach deeply for soul-related matters. 

Capricorn (12/22-1/19): SEPTEMBER, ah, 

lovely September. How you harmonize with this time 

of year. The month has a very earthy, yet civilized, expectation 

to it. Your higher minded qualities come 

forth. You combine that with a very strong mindset for the first two 

weeks. Then all hell breaks loose. You can choose not to be drawn 

into the anger. You do best when seeking peace. Peace is your karmic 

task for the next two years. It’s also about partnerships, legal dealings, 

career proficiency, and an openness to new ideas. Master these 

areas and your path will be smooth. During OCTOBER your career 

and worldly standing are spotlighted. Friends play a major role this 

month. Listen to their ideas and complaints near month’s end. It’s 

hard to get your point across at work unless you are the boss. Others 

seem unmotivated the first 10 days. By the 22nd when things start to 

fall apart, you will get your due recognition. Your ideas are great and 

you find satisfaction as you help the bottom line. Even when we see 

the ship about to run aground, it’s hard to stop it in time. Momentum 

is the problem. 

Aquarius (1/20-2/18): SEPTEMBER: I know; 

things just suck sometimes. Life is still the same, but 

maybe that’s the problem. You need more data input for 

your mind. This happens every year for 4+ months. It’s 

a time to study and learn the lessons before you. It’s a time to gather 

your facts. It’s a time to go within. Yes, things will move forward 

again and you will easily make up for lost time. You are the arrow being 

drawn backward before you are sent flying to your target. You will 

see this before the year ends. OCTOBER: Uranus remains retrograde 

all month, but your secondary planet, Saturn, gives you peace and 

perseverance Things have seemed divided, separated, or disjointed for 

almost two years. Now, everything is slowly coming together again. 

Give it time. You want to make big changes, but some changes will 

not be of your own choosing. Just know that recent events are by 

Universal design. There is a point to it all. Choosing correctly on the 

22nd will make you whole. Choose wrong...never mind! 

Pisces (2/19-3-20): When Neptune is retrograde as 

it is this SEPTEMBER; it can be even more pleasing 

to the Pisceans. It must feel like a fantasy turned inside 

out as only you can grasp. Yet, to suffer is a buffer to the 

pain of no gain like a plain with no rain where life is in strife where 

each blade of grass joins with others in mass to keep hope alive or 

just to survive long enough to call the bluff of the ultimate reaper to 

see something deeper. To merge and to know the verge of a glow that 

waits like a promise to be or not to be. OCTOBER continues the inner 

voyage as both Jupiter and Neptune remain retrograde all month. 

Be careful at work as things can get foggy. Use your natural fog lights 

and your instinct when needed. You are almost obsessed by the allure 

of freedom. You may need a travel guide with good directions. The 

22nd is a big day as the Full Moon brings an awareness of a critical 

situation which needs to be eliminated. The 19th is a feel good day as 

life vitalizes you. Your career or work brings good energy for financial 

blessings after the 28th.
