2012 - Back to basics and the bigger picture.

Firstly a belated happy new year to all that read this. I hope you had a peaceful and enjoyable Christmas and enjoyed seeing in 2012.

I don't know where to start this blog because I have so much to share with you. So here goes nothing and in no particular order I'll let you in to my head for a minute or two. It does digress away from Reiki but its all for the greater good.

Towards the end of last year I went on a days course at the college which introduced me to Alkaline Health and it interested me to the point of starting 2012 and alkalising. The science behind alkalising is simple. Cut out acidic food/drink as this is the basis of a lot illness. Our bodies are naturally slightly alkaline and the deluge of precooked/processed/convenience food and drink that we consume tilts the balance towards acidity and in the long run illness and fatigue. This is my 3rd week and I have to say this is the best I have felt for many years. I have cut out caffeine, alcohol, dairy, bread and meat and live off mother earth. (fruit and veg if your not sure!!) I am up at 6am doing my 30 minute walk (Remember I blogged about 'me time', well this is 'my time') It sets me up for the day. No hunger, cravings or headaches and above everything else I am full of energy and concentration. Coupled with the beautiful energy flow I receive from Reiki you could go as far as to say I am super charged at the moment!! To top this off I am losing weight which for those that know me has been a long battle to control and defeat.

Another major change I have made is I have changed the type of salt i consume/use in my diet. It has long been said that salt is bad for you, you must not consume salt etc etc well our bodies would not function without a certain amount of salt and due to the scare mongering of health professionals in some cases we are lacking. I do not go over my recommended daily dose but I have changed what type of salt I use. the majority of refined salts have received so much cleansing treatment that there are no vitamins or minerals left just pure salt, which coincidentally does nothing for you. I am now using Himalayan Rock Salt which is mined in the Himalayas and has over 70 trace elements of minerals that our body yearns for. I start the day with what is called Sole. I add a teaspoon of Himalayan rock salt solution to a pint of mineral/spring water in the morning. You will notice that this is a part of  the Alkaline health plan and is recommended across other natural health websites.

Finally and by no means least I want to tell you about my personal harmoniser which a good friend at the college told me about. I purchased it from the centre for implosion research. In a nutshell it helps repel electromagnetic radiation and interference from electrical items such as computers, mobile phones and microwaves. It all sounds far fetched and I wouldn't blame you from laughing your heads off but it DOES work. I sit at my computer all day and inevitably got headaches at the end of the day. These have now gone and its safe to say that when I have forgotten to wear my necklace I do feel the difference.

So all in all quite a lot of change in the first couple of weeks and all the greater good . I feel bloody brilliant and long may it continue. My next blog will focus on my Reiki 3 attunement which was before Christmas and the experiences I have had with my case studies.
