How to use this Page

All fields and communities have their own languages to communicate to each other. In the classes I’m taking in Grad School I am learning about new technologies. In the technology world, at least in school, everything seems to be abbreviated. There’s PLEs and ETCs and BPs. I’m pretty confused at this point, but I would guess in about a month, I’ll be an old pro at this language.

This experience brought me to my thoughts of the metaphysical community. There’s a language there all it’s own. There’s lots of talk of energy and vibes and such. I like things simplified and easy to understand, after all, my job as a translator with animals and Spirit is taking the complex thoughts they send over and translating it into down-to-earth english. So, here’s some new age concepts defined.

New Age Speak:

• BAD ENERGY. If someone has BAD ENERGY it usually means someone is a jerk, or really negative all the time and feels like a Debbie Downer, or they can feel scary and dark like a walking horror movie.
• 2012. 2012 is the end of the world according to the Mayan calendar. Many metaphysical folk think that this will be a time where some will move into a light dimension and others will stay here. Sounds like other religions’ beliefs. I see it as gradual change that is already happening. Obviously, we are seeing lots of folks waking up and becoming more aware of themselves and their surroundings, because look at all the people who are hanging on to dear life of the 1950s in fear in resistance to change. And women, don’t you just want to go back to the 1950s and take away all your rights and your ability to think or speak?
• Your thoughts become things. There is truth in this statement but it’s also a great way to beat yourself up even more! Something bad happens? It’s all your fault! You created it! Bad you! You thought wrong. My idea about this is, you know how you think about red cars and all of a sudden, there’s red cars everywhere? There’s ads on tv, someone hands you a magazine with a red car on it? You basically focus on that car and filter out the world like a giant computer and pull to you those images or even only notice those things. It’s like a giant Google search.
• Lightworkers. Another word for healers born on planet earth to try and clean up the mess we’ve made of it.
• Downloads. This is usually a dump of information into your brain and all of a sudden, you are super-wise. Unfortunately, it doesn’t always last and you can go back to being confused and bumping into furniture hours later. But, if it’s good information you can use and you integrate it, you can have some really good change in thinking and your perceptions of your problems, and even have solutions you didn’t think of.

I’m sure you have your own definitions and translations. Want to share?

Children Book Reviews        

Hello everyone for the next three posts I will not do any reviews. I am reading many children books that will be recommended for everyone in about a month. I will be blogging to everyone about a very special place I am visiting right now. I will tell you about miracles that went on here. I will also share my experience. I am doing lots of reading and when I update in April I will have more children book suggestions for librarians, children and parents. I will also add my first book review. Enjoy these posts.



Miracles Happen Here

      First time I heard about Hippocrates Health Institute was when my parents came home with the stories of miracles that took place there: the man whose cancer tumor shrunk, the man whose kidney stones vanished, the woman who got out of her wheel chair and the small girl who was brought here as a last resort to awake her from a coma.
     
     No, it was not some kind of a magical healer who used his hands on them, or some kind of special enchanted well. Every one of these individuals were guided in healing and had a major lifestyle shift. Now I am here myself witnessing more stories of recovery. I want to tell you one story that could touch anyone. A lady came here six weeks ago in very horrible shape: she wanted to kill herself. Almost 80 percent of her skin had one of the worst skin disease. In just six weeks most of her skin disease vanished. Initially, her daughter sent her for a three weeks stay, but then her stay was extended a bit more. Her daughter promised to come also but she made excuses in her home life to come later and later.  She eventually showed up and even brought her brother. Yesterday they all made a speech of thanks at graduation ceremony. One word stood out from the rest of her speech; "Gratitude" On top of being thankful for getting back her mother, she was thankful of being together as a family.

     This is my second time here, but my parents have been coming since 2006 after my dad was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease  disease about seven years ago. He was told by the top doctor that he will be in a wheel chair in four years. It now has been almost seven years and my dad's symptoms have stayed stable. .

     Hippocrates is not only a health center but also top new age spa.  Every one talks with each other and gives love and support on this journey we take together.

     The combination of diet, speeches, sun, spa treatments you never heard of plus the common treatments found everywhere make this a wonderful place. It is like going back to camp for adults. Amazingly this year their are many young children who have come to support there parents. I will share more stories and give some more details on how this program is run in my other posts. Look for my next one on Friday. Please look at the website found on my blog.   

Wow. It´s been quite a ride so far. I´m with a group of Nuevo Age people, which has made this trip a real trip. Nothing is as it seems, "tourista" is the spritit clearing your bad energy (it´s the salad, people, stay away from the leafy greens!) , the freaky sound of the howler monkey, which sounds like a thousand Jaguars all roaring at once, is the monkey throwing its etheric body around (it´s called an enlarged hyoid bone, people, look into it!), and on and on.

There´s also a bit of competition to run up to important looking stones, throw your hands upon them and divine what was going on there back in the day. Pretty hilarious stuff. Yesterday we were at Bonompak, which our guide told us she dreamed was a school for shedding the ego. I wanted to get into an argument about how the ego is a 20th century construct that the Maya probably had no issues with, but then thought perhaps these people could hex me somehow if I got too sassy. So I stuffed my ego and nodded knowingly like the others. Shedding the Ego, yes of course, it´s so obvious.

So today, college pal Peggy (whom I dragged along on this Nuevo Age romp with, I´m ashamed to say, not fully disclosing how wacky the people would be) and I are staying back at the hotel. I want to write - because the trip has really inspired me - and drink freshly squeezed limonada y tequila - because it´s just damn good.

More later! Adios.
