Book(s) Update . . . .
Herbs are Nature's Medicine
BOOK I: Functional Herbology
Well, it seems that the closer I get to completing the TOC and format of each book, another "book" morphs.
Initially, when I finally made a commit- ment this year to finally write an herb book, it was definitively "Herbs are Nature's Medicine: Your Handbook to Healing with the Elements!" (See book cover to the right.)
Then as I began seeking counsel from others who self-published, were established, award-winning authors and owners of web sites offering support and free services to assist the Indie (independent self-publishing) author, someone said, "why don't you do an 'Introduction' to your first book (thanks Coco), so you can establish a following, a platform, wet your feet, etc.!!! Hence "INTRO to Herbs are Nature's Medicine: Healing with the Elements" stuck up its beautiful head. In this edition (see book cover lower right) the main focus will be on the "elements" as few people realize that "As It Is Above,
 So It Is Below" is in reality referring to the fact that all the elements that exist in the Universe (macrocosm) ether, air, fire, water, earth and metal, all have an inherent and specific correlation to our inner Universe (microcosm) of body organs: WATER (kidneys/bladder), WOOD (liver/gall bladder), FIRE (heart/small intestines), EARTH (stomach/spleen) and METAL (lungs/colon). That will be explored and explained in detail in INTRO.
Then as I began to speak to the large numbers of followers on my Blog and readers of my Newsletters, many of them didn't have any understanding or knowledge of exactly "how" herbs work. They had no idea that herbs moved in specific directions, (nor that every organ in our body had its own 'organ chi' and also moved in "directions"), that herbs had specific tastes that effected their healing abilities, or that they had their own "energy." The 'direction' of the Stomach Chi is downward (as our food is digested and moves downward); when it is disturbed (by our bad diet usually, or emotional upset) we "throw up" = our stomach chi moving in the wrong direction. Hence, the need to take herbs with a 'downward energy' to calm the stomach chi and restore its downward harmony. This necessitated the third "morph" - Functional Herbology.
NOW THEY HAVE RE-ESTABLISHED THEIR NECESSARY CHRONOLOGY:
BOOK I will be "FUNCTIONAL HERBOLOGY"
BOOK II will be "INTRO to Herbs are Nature's Medicine: Healing with the Elements, and
BOOK III will be "Herbs are Nature's Medicine: Your Handbook for Healing with the Elements
Book I is scheduled for release within the next 45 days.
{The Cover and TOC is also complete for Book IV: Living in Rhythm with the Universe:
Mental, Physical, Spiritual and Emotional Healing with the Elements, which will
help you understand the healing power of our 7 Chakras (inherently connected to our
7 Endocrine Glands), Crystals and how to use them to heal our mental, physical,
spiritual and emotional bodies.
Thank you for the Opportunity to Serve You

Join the Growing Number of People Saying 'NO' to Soda
Join the Growing Number of People Saying 'No' to Soda
In order to break free of your soda habit, first be sure you address the emotional component of your food cravings using tools such as the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT). More than any traditional or alternative method I have used or researched, EFT works to overcome food cravings and helps you reach dietary success. Be sure to check out Turbo Tapping in particular, which is an extremely effective and simple tool to get rid of your soda addiction in a short amount of time. If you still have cravings after trying EFT or Turbo Tapping, you may need to make some changes to your diet.  | Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Demonstration / 11 min. |
My free nutrition plan can help you do this in a step-by-step fashion. Remember, nothing beats pure water when it comes to serving your body's needs. If you really feel the urge for a carbonated beverage, try sparkling mineral water with a squirt of lime or lemon juice, or sweetened with stevia or Luo Han, both of which are safe natural sweeteners. Remember, if you struggle with high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or extra weight, then you have insulin sensitivity issues and would likely benefit from avoiding ALL sweeteners. What is the Emotional Freedom Technique? The Emotional Freedom Technique, or EFT, is the psychological acupressure technique I routinely use in my practice and most highly recommend to optimize your emotional health. Although it is still often overlooked, emotional health is absolutely essential to your physical health and healing - no matter how devoted you are to the proper diet and lifestyle, you will not achieve your body's ideal healing and preventative powers if emotional barriers stand in your way.

Saying "NO" to Soda . . . . cont'dEFT is very easy to learn, and will help you: - Remove Negative Emotions
- Reduce Food Cravings
- Reduce or Eliminate Pain
- Implement Positive Goals
EFT is a form of psychological acupressure, based on the same energy meridians used in traditional acupuncture to treat physical and emotional ailments for over five thousand years, but without the invasiveness of needles. Instead, simple tapping with the fingertips is used to input kinetic energy onto specific meridians on the head and chest while you think about your specific problem - whether it is a traumatic event, an addiction, pain, etc. -- and voice positive affirmations. This combination of tapping the energy meridians and voicing positive affirmation works to clear the "short-circuit" - the emotional block -- from your body's bioenergy system, thus restoring your mind and body's balance, which is essential for optimal health and the healing of physical disease. Some people are initially wary of these principles that EFT is based on - the electromagnetic energy that flows through the body and regulates our health is only recently becoming recognized in the West. Others are initially taken aback by (and sometimes amused by) the EFT tapping and affirmation methodology, whose basics you will learn here. But keep in mind that, more than any traditional or alternative method I have used or researched, EFT works. I have witnessed the results in my patients since deciding to use EFT exclusively in June of 2001. Indeed, because of its very high rate of success, the use of EFT has spread rapidly, and medical practitioners employing EFT can now be found in every corner of the country and world. This manual will provide an overview on how and where to tap, and the proper affirmation techniques, so that you can begin using EFT immediately to help yourself and others. It will also provide an introduction to some advanced EFT techniques and principles you can employ.
To find the correct tapping locations and techniques, and locating your tapping points ~ CLICK HERE Sweetened beverages, whether it's sweetened with sugar, HFCS, naturally occurring fructose, or artificial sweeteners likeaspartame, are among the worst culprits in the fight against obesity and related health problems, including diabetes and heart and liver disease, just to name a few. Ditching ALL of these types of beverages can go a long way toward reducing your risk for chronic health problems and weight gain, not to mention your exposure to potentially cancer-causing additives like caramel coloring and aspartame.

HEALING with the ELEMENTS
HERBS ARE NATURE'S MEDICINE . . . and we sometimes forget that the source of most pharmaceuticals come from herbs. Because man-made drugs are an adulteration of the source herb, they do not contain any life force energy, and therefore are unable to HEAL, RESTORE VITAL ENERGY or BALANCE to the body or its organs!
We suffer from so many illnesses because we lack understanding of our relationship to the universe and the elements that were created as guides for our health and healing. The elements in nature are directly correlated to every organ in our body: Fire (heart/small intestines), Water (kidneys/bladder), Earth (spleen/stomach), Wood (liver/gall bladder) and Metal (lungs/colon). These correlations are directly connected to the root source of all illnesses as well as the remedies to rid the body of all disease.
WOOD's Yin and Yang organs are the Liver and Gall Bladder, because they are responsible for detoxifying our entire body (when it is at rest). Some people seem unable to generate creative ideas, and have difficulty "changing" or "bending with the wind." They may not have clear thoughts, might experience dry or tearing eyes, hold on to anger too long or unnecessarily, or maybe not feel anger when they should. They may also find themselves susceptible to brittle nails or frequently given to sprains and muscle pulls. They can hate/love the color green, strongly like/dislike sour tasting foods. These people are experiencing imbalances in their . . . WOOD ELEMENT: which embraces the organs of the Liver (yin) and Gall Bladder (yang). If, after you sleep, you awake still tired, or have restless and interrupted sleep, no inspiration or clarity of thoughts, your liver needs rejuvenating and balancing.
Spring is the season of the liver and the power of rebirth. The Liver is like the "General of an Army" because it maintains evenness and harmony of movement throughout the body. The Liver (Soul) opens into the eyes: when the Liver is harmonized and receives blood properly and plentifully, the eyes can see; many eye and vision disorders are taken to be liver-related. Infertility is often an imbalance of the liver.
Some herbs that restore balance to the liver include: Burdock, Chaparral, Dandelion, Yellow Dock, Gentian, Prickly Ash Bark and Sassafras, Bupleurum and Peony, Cascara Sagrada, Golden Seal, Wild Yam, Ginger and Licorice . These herbs replenish energy and rejuvenate functionality, energy rises, digestion improves, sleep is harmonized and the mind can function more clearly.

HERB of the MONTH
GENTIAN
Gentiana lutea
Gentian is an herb whose root and, less commonly, bark are used as a medicinal remedy.
Gentian is one of my favorite herbs for rejuvenation of the digestive system, and is one of our most useful of our bitter herbal tonics. It is especially useful in states of exhaustion from chronic disease and in all cases of general debility, weakness of the digestive organs and want of appetite. It is one of the best strengtheners of the human system, and is an excellent tonic to combine with a purgative to prevent its debilitating effects. Many dyspeptic complaints are more effectively relieved by Gentian bitters than by Peruvian Bark. It is of extreme value in jaundice and is prescribed extensively.
Gentian is an herb that comes from the high pastures of the Alps and the Himalayas. The roots take 7 to 10 growing seasons to mature. The botanical name Gentiana is derived from Gentius, king of ancient Illyria (modern day Bosnia) (180-167 B.C.E.), who discovered its therapeutic values, according to a history written by Pliny the Elder (ca. 23-79 C.E.) The herb has been used in European herbal medicine throughout the 2200 years since its discovery.

Womb Purity Regimen
This regimen is designed for the individual needs of every woman. If your fibroid tumors/cysts are small and doesn't cause much (or any) discomfort, you may only need to take the tea regularly, to reduce them and keep them in check. If they are numerous and mildly discomforting, I'd suggest the Regular Strength Clay/Douche Combo. The larger they are in size and number, more chronic, recurring, painful and/or disruptive of your menses and lifestyle, you should use all three products to employ a more aggressive attack on the fibroids/tumors/cysts; here I would suggest the Advanced Strength.
Womb Purity Tea - 2oz ~ $12 
Womb Purity Clay/Douche Combo
Regular Strength - 8oz Jar ~ $39
Advanced Strength - 8oz Jar ~ $49
Womb Purity Douche - 2oz ~ $17
TESTIMONIAL:
After my diagnosis of fibroids in 2012, and then being on the Womb Purity Formula for nearly a year, my symptoms have virtually disappeared to the degree that I was feeling soo good that I forgot my fibroids existed. I no longer have any uneasiness followed by regular Dr visits. It was virtually undetectable.
