Making Room for the Light


For so many years I have prepared for this moment – and certainly over the last decade or so, I have carefully chosen my food and made the necessary changes to my lifestyle as I healed my body. And, right now I feel deep down as if my defences are finally rising and coming into their own.

All of this work has been done on myself (body, mind and soul), in order to be strong, healthy and to have a functioning immune system not to mention all the other side benefits of mind and body connection.

So, why might this be so important you might ask? Good question! First of all, I realized quite some time ago, that our collective immune function (on the earth) was pretty near zero. We have subjected ourselves to so much in such a short period of time, our bodies have been struggling to keep up.

These toxins have done nearly everything imaginable to bring us down and then keep us down.

One thing I have known in my bones for all of my life (I am an Intuitve!LOL) is that there are viruses coming….we (the inhabitants of earth) will have to face something horrific once again.

I say again because throughout our recent history we have been devastated by several plagues, rampant bacteria (TB) as well as flu viruses that have brought millions of people into dark places and kept them there.

We need to be in working order (starting with our physical body) – or else we won’t be able to cope with these nasty bugs. And no, a vaccine won’t do….we can’t keep heaping toxins on top of toxins and wait for health to magically appear.

Where to start with giving your body and immune system a boost right now? Perhaps remove the top three toxins in your diet (look at your ‘addictions’) and find a source of clean, untreated drinking water….

However, whenever anyone asks me what is my absolute top recommendation for health (on all levels and dimensions) – I can only think of one group of toxins that must go….and that is the Deadly Nightshade (potato, tomato, aubergine, peppers, chillies, gogi berries etc.) family.

These carry the energy of death….and are completely contradictory to health, healing and any form of spiritual life. I have been Night Shade free now for several years...during which time my spirit has healed and lifted in new ways and places. 

When walking the spiritual path, all energy must be considered and none is more important then the energy of our food. Perhaps it's time to remove a little darkness, to make room for the light....

Day 5 - Detoxing Sorcery and Darkness!!

Today is already an other worldly day - I felt as soon as I woke up that I had been far away somewhere - and part of me has not yet come back! Or perhaps that is how it is meant to be..

So, today is day 5 and we are all doing well. The topic of conversation these last couple of days has been around the amount of medication, antibiotics and other chemicals in the feed of food animals. It is so prevalent that even I (who has spent years in the meat industry) has forgotten this shocking fact.

Any meat that you buy, which is not organic, is likely to be saturated with several types of medicines which are deemed necessary to keep these animals alive and healthy. I would think the worst offenders are in the poultry industry... but there may be others who are worse.

Of course, you can get around this and stop eating meat. Which I have done for quite a few years. Then when we wanted to eat meat again we found a source with minimal to none of this medicated feed. However, it is so widespread in the animal foodstuffs these days and difficult to avoid.

As a Medical Intuitive my mind is always jumping ahead into - what effect this might have on the animals and therefore on the humans who consume this food? And how might this then affect our health and well-being?

These animals would have an altered energy field and a poor immune system - at best. And, knowing how medication can make us feel - would they also be unhappy and miserable in their short lives?

I would think this has a fairly detrimental effect on us - like a kind of sorcery, a poison seeping into our cells pulling us into dark places. This is exactly what is moving and coming up to the surface for us at the moment - a detox of these toxins.

This is certainly going to be an interesting day!

Feeling the Need to Detox

These past couple of days have been good in many ways, with regards to getting things done, however I am feeling the need to get back down to the business of detoxing once again and physically I feel as if a lot of toxins have been stirred up.

During these past few weeks, since my last cleanse, I have increased and expanded my workouts to add variety but also to improve my own fitness level. I like to challenge myself every now and then, especially through physical activity. 

With all of the detoxing, I had tended to do more gentle exercises, and then stick with that low key pattern after the cleanse was finished mostly out of habit. I missed doing a more vigorous exercise routine and have happily gotten back into it recently.

Of course, doing much more physically, also increases the circulation of toxins in the system as well as encouraging them to leave by the normal routes. I want to speed things along a little bit and thought to combine a Master Cleanse with a few more intense workouts (as much as possible) thrown in.

So, this weekend we are eating well, exercising lots and building up to doing our September Master Cleanse (for how many days I am not sure yet) sometime next week. 

My body feels much stronger, however I am aware of the toxin load moving about because my mind is unable to focus as easily and I am a little ungrounded, neither of which is like me. I miss the way I usually feel in my mind - sharp and clear and need to get back to it.

The fastest, easiest and safest way to detox, body, mind and soul is of course to do a Master Cleanse for about 10 days. This will be my fifth this year so far while I have done many little mini cleanses in-between.

Right now I am very aware of internal body functions and systems needing to come into balance - and the best way to move forward is through a detox. So another Master Cleanse is in order, I can't wait. 

Now I have to decide on a theme or focus for my 10 days journey....hmmm!

Have a lovely day,

Fear Dominates Life - When You Ingest Toxins

Having touched on this topic a few times here, it is amazing how I keep coming back around to it. Fear has been so deeply embedded into the DNA of our species, mostly through the food and water that we are taking in. Today I wanted to share with you a bit more about the changes that I have made and continue to make to remove this negativity. 

I remember when I used to eat a 'typical' diet and live a 'normal' life - layers of toxins and negativity dissolving anything good. For those who still listen to the news and steep themselves in negative information that comes in from official sources, a little more poison in the food probably isn't that noticeable.

It is not until you begin the process of removing some of these nasty toxins from your mind, body and soul (because you want to lose weight, heal, move forward spiritually etc.) that you realize the toll they have all taken on you. However,  you can also see how each one of these contaminates added and intermixed with the others creating a brew of something horrible.

Years ago I started out slowly eliminating many unnecessary 'foods' from my life including all the usual ones like sugar, dairy, wheat, alcohol, caffeine. With each layer taken away my thinking got clearer, my intuitive abilities stronger and exact, of course I also felt far better and my body healed.

Even with these anti-nutrients taken out of my diet, I still could sense a certain level of toxins coming in, being an intuitive and a health investigator by trade, I stopped at nothing until I discovered what this was. It turned out to be a group of fruits that I have since come to know as the most anti-spiritual things on the planet and indeed the Night Shades (potato, tomato, aubergine, chillies, peppers and gogi berries), had a hold on my spirit which was causing concern, because I was dying a spiritual death inside. 

If I were to back up a bit here, many years before this time, when I had made a few select changes to my diet and lifestyle, I found myself in Findhorn, a spiritual centre in northern Scotland for a conference. As often happens in places such as this, a complete stranger who turned out to be a Naturopathic doctor from North America approached me with a message from spirit.

Back in 1997, she informed me that I was to stay away from all Night Shades and only then would things become clear for me (my destiny, purpose, mission). At the time I was mystified, these were just vegetables/fruits, how could they possibly interfere with my spiritual life and the work I am doing?

However, her words stayed with me even though it was a few years later before I finally relented and stopped including them altogether in our diets at home. I had come to my own conclusions by that time, but it was quite clear, the Night Shades and their toxins were to be added to the list of poisonous foods. 

It was only then that my life changed completely, entirely and utterly - moving onwards at incredible speed into new areas. The first thing I remember changing for me was the fog lifting, within 72 hours of clearing the house of these foods, even the energy of the place had lifted.

Since that time I have learned, understood and detoxed these noxious fruits out of my system and never looked back. When it comes to spirituality, if something is toxic or poisonous to the body, there is no difference for the rest of our being. Harming the body is the same as hurting mind and spirit.

Whenever there is poison present in your body several things occur;
  • fear dominates the mind
  • harm is being done to the body
  • an energy block forms in the field
  • patterns of negativity and anger control everything 
  • feelings of confusion 

However, once these toxins begin to be eliminated from our bodies, and detoxed out of the delicate systems (through Master Cleanses etc.), the body heals and all can be restored. Of course, this takes time, commitment and dedication to fully walking the spiritual path. 

Perhaps it is time to take a step forward into the light

Halfway On Day 5

Well, it is day 5 - we are pretty well half way to the finish line and feeling well. The one thing that I noticed yesterday was that a weakness in my legs that I would have felt for many years, which is usually there when I am not fasting, had flared up. I kept walking through it as it is more of a 'sense' and a heaviness - toxins. 

So, now this morning I am still feeling lots of energy, looking forward to my exercise and loving the clear feeling in my body and head. Other than my skin being a little bumpy and the heavy legs, I don't have any other detox symptoms yet. Just the dreams! 

The dreams continued last night with me sitting and talking to the 'ghost' from my dream the night before, who had now taken form and shape into a person that I knew. Plus, in the dream I could not open my eyes, I was trying to, but they were itching, burning as if I had been peeling very strong onions or something. Once I stepped outside I was fine.

Then another dream of me ordering food at a restaurant something like a fast food place, while I was wondering why I was even there. And a very significant dream of a person in a wheelchair who believed that he was paralyzed - when I had him close energy leaks he could see that his legs were filled with 'fear toxins' and he was then able to stand up.

How clear is all of that!!! Lots of things moving and shifting for me here - so I am well under way to getting at the root of this block. I am really excited now to see what each day brings as everything appears to be centering around dissolving this resistance in my body.

By the way, last night I actually had so much energy that at 10:30 I was out walking and enjoying the night air. It was peaceful and calm. Today I am planning to do some more creative things to keep this energy moving and to get outside as much as possible. 

Each time I do these Master Cleanses they always prove to be deep, significant and the gentlest way forward on my journey. All I can say right now is WOW, this is really working and something that I was after for many years has come to the surface.

Talk to you tomorrow,

April

It's Day 2 - already!

Usually whenever I do a 10 day Master Cleanse, the first couple of days (which are often the hardest) drag on and seem to take forever. This time this is not the case and it has almost been very easy so far (too easy! LOL). Yesterday, I went to bed early with a slight headache and I felt a bit achy and tired. But I have been through worse.

Today I am feeling pretty good, not much in the way of detox symptoms that are physical - this time they are mostly mental and in my thinking. All day it feels as if I have been fighting 'demons' - don't exercise, you really want to eat, fear, worry, you can't do that blah, blah. All negative and all toxic - which right away tells me that this cleanse is working and that toxins are moving.

However, I must be getting to the bottom of the barrel because the really bad apples are coming out. I can feel the dark energy around and 'see' the toxins in my energy field as I go about my day. These thoughts are also intense and almost feel like they are coming from another dimension or far away place.

They don't even seem to be a part of me or my psyche, which is a relief, because I am not listening to them and doing my best to counter the negativity with positive mantras and thoughts. Each time I feel like not moving, I push myself to exercise, and each time I feel this voice telling me to stop the cleanse and eat something - I sip on my MC juice and carry on.

Physically, I feel great, I have gotten loads done, my mind feels sharp and clear and my memory - well lots of old buried deep memories have been coming up for me. I just know that this cleanse is one of the most important that I have ever done. 

Last night I was dreaming all night, but it was like one continuous long dream with many parts. I found myself sitting an exam at one stage with my cat at my feet, then taking a bus to travel to a distant city with someone else's phone that I was trying to use. Then arriving in that place and looking for a place to stay and thinking of a person's name, where I instantly arrived.

When I woke up it was as if I had actually travelled somewhere and I could sense a shift in my energy. I do feel lighter and stronger, and just more engaged in living, thinking and doing. Great place to be really.

Fasting, Master Cleanses and living this way has changed my life in so many ways, I would never go back to my old lifestyle for anything. This is just far too interesting and I feel great!

Hope you are all well,

April

I'm not fat, I'm toxic

Have you ever noticed that the first thing we become aware of around a person is their weight? And that our eyes are drawn to the parts of their bodies carrying the excess weight as fat? Why might this be so and should we look at this as significant in any way?

As a Medical Intuitive I always ask questions, I would consider myself an investigator of the body, mind and spirit in an effort to understand what is happening within and exactly why. So when I realized many years ago that my attention was constantly pulled in the direction of body fat - I started asking myself, why this was so and what was in this fat that was needing attention.

Body fat serves a couple of purposes and is not entirely a negative or bad thing in our lives. We need some fat around us for protection of internal organs, fat also acts as a storage place for toxins and some hormones  - what causes a problem is when there is too much of it.

Too much body fat and of course the fact that this fat gathers in specific places shows us where the toxins are and where there are toxins there is inflammation. This layer of embedded poisons within our bodies festers away until we are in a position to do something about it.

However, for the most part, I have not met anyone who is doing something about it mainly because we have forgotten how but, more importantly you cannot heal inflammation or lose body fat successfully or remove toxins or do anything worthwhile in your body using more toxins!

This leads me right back to the reason why I wanted to mention this topic today - the new anti-fat vaccine using a virus to alter hormone expression in the body tissues or the supplements and medication (yes I lump them together) to either suppress the appetite or change some internal function and the highly processed 'food' that you can purchase to control your calorie intake.

Each of these products are not only dangerous and capable of interfering with (damaging) delicate internal body processes - they are not even remotely dealing with the root of the problem - which is an excess of toxins stored in the body tissues  that has caused an inflammation. 

A toxin to me is any substance not benefiting our bodies, in fact it is any material that costs us something to ingest and digest it. Sadly there are far too many in our food, water and air these days that have to be dealt with on an on-going basis but, when they are regularly cleansed out of the body - we can cope. 

As long as we are mindful of what we are putting in and make an effort to keep water and food clean. Then you must cleanse your body regularly (it's like taking a bath on the inside) and pull out these toxins or you will become unwell, carry excess weight or otherwise be in an unhealthy state. 

By now you might be asking what does this tell us about those who eat rubbish and to excess and do not gain weight? In a nutshell this means that on an energetic basis, someone takes it on for them. The weight must go somewhere and it does exist, so we are not necessarily carrying all of our own baggage around, but that is a topic for another day!

If you are feeling heavy, overweight and are suffering from inflammation of any sort - much of this can be resolved far more easily then you ever imagined - clean water, a good diet and exercise. The gimmicks do not work and may make things far worse, stick with what is real.

Have a lovely day,

April
