Frozen Shoulder

The latest update on my frozen shoulder is......its still being very persistent! I have been having regular crystal and reiki treatments and still it persist. Ive been told what you resist ~ persists.!! I do however feel this frozen shoulder is now connected to a past life issue and after reading a great book by Diana Cooper " A time for transformation" feel that it is perhaps another path i need to go down in order to heal the shoulder. I am seeing a lovely lady on Monday 1st Nov 2010.

Lucy May my beautiful daughter

My daughter who is 11 years old decided in May 2010 to go and live with her dad. Although this has been very hard for me to accept and there has been a lot of pain and hurt expressed along the way.....i now feel that this is her journey and that as a mother we have to trust and let them go.(even at a early age of 11) She is very angry towards me and tells me she hates me all the time. I have tried to show her love in return, however this in practice is very hard. I was told by a lovely lady (Ann-Marie) that anger is a cry for love and these wise words went straight to my heart and i felt sadness that my daughter did not feel loved. I do see Lucy every now and again and i can see so much of me in her. (stubborn, and cut of from her emotions.) I ask that time will heal the situation and that she will grow and learn to let go of her anger.

The very same thing happen a year prior with my oldest son James, only he was gone for six weeks and i knew James was angry but not for long and that he missed me and wanted to come home. James learnt a valuable lesson :- he had to asked his dad to allow him to return back to me knowing his dad would show a lot of anger in return. James is now 14 years old and refuses to see his dad since Lucy has gone. His reasoning is that he feels his dad puts Lucy first and perhaps feels not so special.

Interesting Treatment with Lynda Jakiro

Yesterday i met up with a lovely friend who is an Allergy and Complementary Therapist called Lynda who kindly did allergy testing on me. I was tested for loads of things and amazing enough Candida showed up as 20% which is quite low but she felt the strict diet i am on would have had a huge impact on the percentage outcome. I also tested high for salt (100%) so Ive now got to avoid salt for next three days. Funny that i never add salt to my food and can only presume is due to all the added salt found in processed food i had eaten over the past. Antibiotics came up high. I have also got to avoid cooked or raw vegetables for 30hrs ~ I had a lovely organic steak last night with rice noodles. We also talked about being a vegetarian and that i had in fact tried being one several months ago and felt very unwell not eating meat. I have since found out some thing very interesting that certain blood types ie 0 need to eat meat. If only we could live of the land and kill what is needed like the Indians!
Finally Lynda did some Ancestral Clearing and information came up on my mothers side dating back 14,582 years ago and then she checked for lost souls three were picked up and....wait for it....i was checked for.......PSYCHIC ATTACK!!!
Three from this life and alive plus one from this life dead. Twenty one from past lives, my goodness Ive been around a long time. The main thing that sticks out for me is that we checked for how and what was being used for psychic attack and guess what we found ~ Stones, psychic stones had been used. There is a process that needs to be done over a period of time to clear all psychic attacks. I started this yesterday and it will be interesting to see how things are after its finished. My arm felt alot better during the treatment.
More and more people are coming under psychic attack and theres quite alot of information on the internet about it.

Physiotherapy

I have been having Physiotherapy for three weeks now and there seems to be some improvement. Francis thinks I have a frozen shoulder with a trapped nerve. Ive been given a few arm exercises to do between appointments and these are quite painful but I have to keep the arm moving. The main thing is im no longer on pain killers and the pain only lasts about 5mins.

Modern Meditation Workshop

Every now and again i have this huge sense that i need to be learning new things or going to new places.....and it needs to be done A.S.A.P. I had the good fortune to come across a lovely lady called Dipti Paul who was holding a Modern Meditation Workshop in Stroud. Although Stroud was a three hour drive away this didn't seem to matter to me and i had made up my mind that i would go if Dipti didn't get an even number for her course. It turns out the day before the workshop was due to take place a space needed to be filled and so i phoned Dipti and confirmed i would be attending her workshop. I had to sort the tom(sat nav) out and buy a yoga mat. It was really funny because I needed a power cable for the tom tom as I had some how broken the original one and Stuart my boyfriend said don't worry his friend Rex has one and i can borrow it! He went on to say he wont need it he never goes out!! However I knew otherwise....sure enough....he phoned Rex and he did in fact need his cable and so we both spent that evening rushing to Halfords and Tescos to find a cable.

The next morning i set off at 6.15am to Stroud, M23, M25, M4 and A419 the journey was perfect a smooth safe ride. The venue was at Hawkwood College which is set within 42 acres of land. I met some lovely people and learnt some new tools to help me meditate. Dipti was an amazing teacher and was able to show how easy meditation could fit into busy life styles. Every thing was perfect apart from my arm....it was really playing me up during the meditations. Dipti talked us through a meditation which help us scan our bodies for illness,pain or issues. I tried to scan my arm and all i could see was slabs of rocks within it?

Crystal Treatment

I had a real urge to mix with like minded people today and that was quite hard with my three children being off(easter holidays.) I did managed to sneaked out in the evening for an Amazing crystal treatment with a very lovely lady called Shirley, who i have known for many years and i trust 100%, shes like a spiritual mum to me. During the treatment I explained that my left arm was very stiff and quite bad when i moved it and that i felt some thing was in there. Shirley did a chakra scan and they were all out of balance, so she placed a full set on chakra crystals on me, ruby, emerald and diamond had such wonderful energies. During the treatment memories came up about my childhood and they seemed to be healed. Shirley scanned the left side of my body and could sense there was a large hard lump around my arm, which was also linked into my solar plexus. We ended up doing lots of physic surgery throughout the treament and i really felt lighter and brighter afterwards. Lots and lots of things came up during the treatment about past friends and current fathers and ex partners.... all good clearing though.

I have been having crystal treatments with Shirley for many years now and the more work you do on healing yourself the more seems to get healed.

I was once asked if every one had issues to be healed and my reply oh YES!!

It will be interesting to see how my arm is from now on!

Anti - Candida diet

I have been on the anti candida diet for two weeks now and i can not believe how great i feel and to top that Ive lost 9lbs. The diet is very strict and i have given up coffee and chocolate and many other things but i actually feel so much better for it. Word of warning i did get really bad headaches and flu symptoms due to stopping coffee and all the other processed food.
I have tried to focus on what i can eat and Not what i cant!

Milk - soya(unsweetened) or rice milk
Butter - unsalted
Natural yoghurt
Cottage cheese
lemons
Whole grain flour
Olive oil to cook
sunflower, safflower, linseed
Free range eggs
Organic meat
Prawns, crab
Fish not smoked
Yeast free soda bread
Rice cakes
Ryvita
Home made muesli
Porridge

This is just a basic list and you can find more in information in Erica whites cookbook. I had ago at baking soda bread using wholemeal flour and lowfat yoghurt and i think i need a little more practice as my bread came out like rock cakes. For the time being i seemed to be losing weight and not going hungry so the need for other food ie scones, bread is not required. I have been looking into perhaps attending a whole food cookery course, as i feel the fact i was brought up on such a high sugar diet dosnt help with my cooking skills.

Candida - 2010

It would appear that this illness is very common and goes undiagnosed on many occasions. I searched the net and read a few books and felt sure i had Candida. There is a simple test to confirm candida www.ninazu.com/tests1.html
I tried the test and yes i definitely had Candida. After going through lots of web sites i felt frustrated with all the different advice out there for Candida, a few things did stick out !

1) Diet ~ ie No diary, No yeast, No added citric acid, No processed food, No sugar.
2) Use a good multivitamin and liver cleanse,Garlic to help keep body tip top.
3) Use Anti fungal treatments to kill candida.
4) Replace good bacteria in gut.

There is so much information about anti candida diets that i could not find one site or book that confirmed the same products you should be eating. I spoke to several good friends of mine and i decided to follow:- Erica whites beat candida cook book www.nutritionhelp.com/books05.php.

Light Bulb Moment - 2010

After being on all the pain killers for many months it would appear that I came away with little side effects. However this was not the case, i started to developed dizzy spells and also thrush. I used canestan to clear the thrush and it seem to work for a little while. Over the next couple of weeks I set about researching thrush and suddenly i felt a light had been swithced on...I had diagnosed myself with Candida. I could not believe it, i felt a sense of relief that after some six years and having many debilitating illnesses that i had finally found the reason why...eureka!!

Physiotherapy

I managed to get an appointment for physio within a week of seeing the consultant. I was seen by a lady called Francis and she took a full medical history from me and then set about trying to see if and where the nerve was trapped. I had to do a movement where i would stand straight and have both of my arms stretched out at shoulder length then i had to raise my arms. My goodness that hurt and my left arm seemed to freeze and i could not carry on with any other exercises.
Since then i have been getting real sharp pain that last about 5mins when the left arm is raised in a certain way and im still cant undo my bra. Next physio is Tues 6th of April.

Jan 2010

I have been unwell since Jan 2010, I some how injured or trapped a nerve in my spine around the neck c5/c6 area and ended up being signed off work for several months. During this time the pain was so bad that the only choice was to take prescription pain killers:- co-codamol, ibuprofen, diazepan and amitripyline for nerve damage. As a complementary therapist of course I tried alternative relief as well:- Shiatsu, Reiki healing and massage but the pain carried on for some five weeks. When the pain finally ceased i was left with pins and needles in my right thumb. My doctor is very good and was concerned and referred me to a consultant regarding the pins and needles. I'm currently undergoing physiotherapy at my local hospital.
