Reflexology For The Spirit

A Crisis Toolkit for Your Mind, Body, and Spirit.

For years and years, I’ve carried around a crisis toolkit to use whenever a friend, family member, client, coworker, or complete stranger entered my life in a crisis situation.  Do you have a healing tool kit?

I’m betting  you do.  After all, we’re all healers.    We all carry one around, even if we don’t call it that.  So my question is this:  What’s in it?

My toolkit has things to help with  fear as well as death and with the dreaded coronavirus.  But it also has to help with all the other diseases and aches and pains  we encounter in addition:  colds, fever, rashes, asthma attacks, arthritis, heart attacks, cancer…

Maybe you  feel your toolkit is not ready for today’s situation. It’s probably filled with all sorts of things you can use.

Here are some things I’m sharing with you.  Maybe you have things in your toolkit you can share with me.

When it comes to supporting your mind, body, and spirit during these challenging times, I TURN FIRST TO YOGA.  I recommend restorative yoga.

When you are stressed, a weekly session is important.  I don’t know how it is in your area, but I’m in Upstate New York which is a new hot spot for Coronavirus.  I take a restorative yoga class via Zoom every week with Carolyn Abedor.

Carolyn is a physical therapist/yoga instructor.  I come away from her class restored, renewed, and recharged for the coming  week.  I would take her class twice a week but I work on the other day she teaches it.

Do you have a yoga teacher?  If not, make finding one a priority.  Today’s challenges call for restorative yoga.  But, if you find a different yoga that you prefer…go for it.  Use what works for you.

REIKI CANNOT BE OVERESTIMATED.   Do you practice Reiki therapy?  If so, don’t forget to use this tool every chance you get.

Use your Reiki when you walk into a building.  Use it when you walk down the street.  Use Reiki when you encounter other people.  Everyone is stressed out.  We can all use Reiki’s healing, calming energy.

If not, now is the best time I know of  to learn Reiki.  Reiki is essential in stressful times.  And, frankly, no time can be more stressful than now.

If you don’t practice Reiki and you can’t find a teacher, book some sessions with a practitioner.  Begin with 5 sessions.

Whether or not you practice Reiki,  or visit a Reiki practitioner regularly, now is a good time to organize a Reiki circle or  Reiki share.  Gather several  friends together and let the Reiki practitioners offer healing to everyone in the room.  Reiki is not one bit intimidated by the requirements of social distancing.

DON’T FORGET  REFLEXOLOGY.   Reflexology sessions are extremely grounding.  If you are stressed out or if you have health issues, Reflexology sessions  can help.  Gloves and face masks will not negatively impose on Reflexology.

HEALING MUSIC HAS BEEN AN IMPORTANT PART IN MY TOOL BOX FOR YEARS.  I use it during healing sessions, classes, or whenever I feel the need.

Through the years, I’ve learned that healing music can be all sorts of sounds.  Beauty is in the ears of the beholder.  I tend to favor Deuter,  Halpern, Ken Davis, Anugama.  Your favorites may be totally different.  Because of my experiences, I prefer the older musicians.  But, there are many kinds of healing music available today.  Explore them until you know what works best for you.

GUIDED MEDITATIONS are essential.  I began reading those written by others and now create my own.  I suggest that you go with someone else’s until the time is right for you.  The goal of a guided meditation is to awaken, transform, or heal.  For years, I relied on the meditations compiled in books by Larry Moen.

BEDSIDE TABLE BOOKS are essential.  They are the books I read when my tanks need refilling.  These books vary with the need.  Sometimes escape is the only route.  Other times, I need to know what other people have to say about the situation I’m dealing with.

I’m often hungry for the wisdom others offer.  To prevent empty tanks, I try to read about an hour a day.

When I  fed hungry and homeless people in a food pantry, I found solace in the statistics of hunger.  At any given moment I could tell you what percentage of children in our country went to bed hungry.  I knew the difference between resource poor and generational poor and struggling poor.  I knew all about dumpster diving.

Now, I’m attracted to  memoirs.  It’s not the problems that attract me.  It’s how the writer tackled the problem that counts.

Fear, and forgiveness are big on my list.

Finally, when I need to veg out,  I go for whatever catalogue is in my mailbox.

The important thing is to know when  to fill your own tanks.  Your toolbox won’t be worth much if you’re stretched too thin.

Your toolkit may be totally different.  It probably is different.  After all, we are scattered all over the planet.  I hope to hear about some things in your toolkit.  Please email me.

Meanwhile, please forward this article to your preferred social media network.

In honor of this most stressful time, I’m offering you a free copy of a book I wrote  entitled  “Miracles”.   Email your mailing address to  thurmangreco@gmail.com before April 12th, and I’ll send it along – absolutely free with no strings attached.

Thank you for being here.

The Spirituality of Fear

Full-blown fear isn’t really in my personal vocabulary, so I don’t often feel it.  But, when I do feel fear, I feel it 100%.   I feel fear for us,  and the earth.   This is the spirituality of fear.

When I felt fear in my life, fear interfered with my grounding mechanism.  And, that wasn’t all.  It  took control and moved and directed me throughout every single day.

That is not to say that I have not ever experienced fear.  I have, definitely, lived with fear.  But, this post is not about that fear.  It is for us, our fear, and our Earth.

I feel in my spiritual core that fear is directing many of us nowadays.  Through the guise of the Coronavirus, fear is totally in charge of many of us and our lives.

I am suggesting, no – pleading –  that fear has no place in our lives at this moment.  For one thing, when fear controls us, it wrecks our immune systems.   Not one person on our planet today needs an immune system compromised in any way.

Instead of fear, focus on our planet.    In my inner core, I feel that I need to focus on our precious planet earth because she’s the only planet we’ve got.

With all the cars, factories, ships, and planes grounded and parked, our Earth is getting a very much needed time-out.

During this time, our Earth’s streams, lakes, and oceans are cleaning  themselves up.

The atmosphere surrounding our planet is cleaning itself out – finally!  The humans on our planet are, for the moment, generating less smog.

We are using the dirt – fields, meadows, mountainsides – in different ways now.

So, while our medical, and governmental leaders are figuring out how to combat this pandemic, I can’t help but be grateful for this time out, this cleansing experience on and in  our Earth.

In my spiritual center, I feel we are on the verge of a whole new world.  I am not longingly looking back on the return of the old reality of the past.  The past is gone – a memory which we can write, paint,  and sing about in the future.

Instead,  I look forward to our new world and its cleaner, healthier, reality.

Please join me.

Let us celebrate our  future together.

Let us ponder things learned and create better ways to live our lives daily.

Let us rejoice in a cleaner, more beautiful tomorrow.

If you feel moments of fear, there are things you can do:

Meditate on a future you would like to see.

Seek grounding through bodywork.

Find gratitude in lessons learned and beauty to experience.

Thank you.

How Stressed Are You Anyway? 6 Common Responses to Stress and What You Can Do About Them.

How does your stress add up for you?  Are you more stressed than usual?  Are you more stressed than your friends and family?

Does everything seem to be an emergency?  In other words, is your stress becoming  out of control?  Do you feel as if you need to see a professional for help controlling your stress response?

Is getting back and forth to work stressful for you?  Is your work situation stressful?  Many of our stress responses can be planned for and, hopefully, controlled.

If you develop the habit of staying tuned to your body, you can become aware of upcoming stress before things get out of control.   Your physical body will send you signals.  What are they?

DO YOU CLENCH YOUR MUSCLES?  This is easy to check out.  Begin by checking your body for clenched muscles.  Begin at the top of your head and work your way down to your toes.  Favorite stress spots for many people are jaws and teeth, neck and shoulders, fists, lower spine, and feet.

DO YOU GRIND YOUR TEETH?  Many people do this when they are stressed.  This habit carries over to your sleep for some.

DO YOUR HANDS GET COLD?  Generally speaking, your cold hands indicate a stressed body.  To test whether your hands are cold or not, hold one of your hands on your neck.  If it is cooler than your body, you are probably stressed.

ARE YOU SWEATING?  It can be that you are overheated.  But, sweating can also be an indication that you are stressed.  As humans, we sweat when we are in a protection mode.  If you find yourself sweating, ask yourself what is causing this situation.

IS YOUR PULSE RACING?  If you are not exerting yourself and your pulse is racing, you are most probably stressed.  What is happening?

DO YOU REWIND THE SAME THOUGHT ENDLESSLY?  This is a common human condition.  When we are upset about something, we rewind the same concern for minutes, hours, days.  Like a stuck record, we think about the same thing over and over and over.

A good thing to do is realize that you have a situation upsetting you.   Once you realize what the cause may be, you can seek a solution.

Can you brainstorm with a friend or colleague to find a solution.   For example, you may have a difficult commute to and from work.  Can you take a bus or train instead of driving?

It may be that your situation is too much for you to handle alone and you need to seek professional help to identify your stressor and then deal with it.   If that is the case, go for it!  You will be much better off when you find a solution to your problem.

Meanwhile, there are a couple of generic things you can do which will help until you begin your therapy.  These things include

MEDITATION – Spend a few minutes each day meditating .  This should help you cope with your situation while promoting a positive attitude.   You can take a meditation class or find or write  guided meditation focusing on your situation.

Either way, meditation promotes homeostasis which can only help because it promotes the balance of all your body systems.

TAKE INVENTORY DAILY.  A good thing to do is to take an inventory daily of the things in your life which might affect you today.  This inventory will help you prepare for all the little things which add up to stress.  This inventory will include things which are not necessarily major sources of stress.  But they are there – waiting to happen.  Being aware of them in advance helps.

With a little practice, this inventory can help reduce your stress levels daily.    More tips will follow in future blog posts.  Your goal is to try them out and choose the ones which work best for you.

Your Liver, Your Life and 2020 – 10 Liver-Friendly Tips

We’re just fresh into the new year.  2020 is here!

For many of us, the new year brings intestinal and liver cleanses encouraging the good health resolution we always make.  Both in my wellness book and my blog posts, I refer to cleanses.

What better time is there for a cleanse than now – in January of the new year?

I always recommend an intestinal cleanse before the liver cleanse.  Actually, the two cleanses are partners working together for your good health.

STEP ONE is an intestinal cleanse designed to detox  your digestive system.  When your intestinal tract is clean, you will feel better, have more energy, and be more alert.  But, a key  purpose of this intestinal cleanse is to prepare you to detox your     liver.

If you detox your liver before cleaning  your intestinal tract, you may overload your digestive system.  The result may not leave you feeling better, more alert, and energetic.

So, the best way to go is to detox your intestinal tract first.

STEP  TWO is a liver detox.  With a clean intestinal tract, the toxins will leave your body much easier.

When you think about your liver and what it does, it only makes sense to have a liver cleanse last.

Your liver is your body’s largest and most complex organ.   Some textbooks describe the tasks your liver performs in the hundreds.  How can one organ in the body do all the things it’s supposed to do?  Your liver processes your food nutrients, removes contaminents, stores minerals and vitamins, regulates blood clotting.  On top of the many things your liver does, it regenerates itself.

Your liver is vital to your health and wellbeing.

So, your liver should thank you for giving it a detox.

And, after your  detox, your liver should  easily and effectively process all the things you put in your body.  What can you do after your detox to help keep it in good running order?

There are several things you can do which will help your liver function better…especially if you have health issues affecting  your liver.

ENJOY A CUP OR TWO OF COFFEE.  Caffeine is good for your liver.

LOW-FAT FOODS.   Avoid saturated and trans fats which don’t go well with a fatty liver.

SKIP THE SUGAR.  Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to eat few to no sweets.

GET THE SALT OUT.  Too much salt in your diet contributes to high blood pressure which is hard on your liver.

EAT MORE FRUITS AND VEGGIES.  These foods offer a variety of vitamins and minerals which are easier to digest than the supplements themselves.

GO FOR WHOLE GRAINS.  Brown rice, beans, whole grain breads are preferred.

WATER, WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE.  Drink a lot of water…everyday.

SKIP RAW FISH AND MEATS.  Your goal is to avoid introducing harmful bacteria to your liver.

SKIP THE ALCOHOL.  If you have health issues, alcohol is too stressful on your body.

So, there you have it.   I truly hope this list will help you and your whole body health maintenance in the coming year.  These tips are all liver-friendly.  Your liver is important to your overall health – every day.

Exhaustion is a Spiritual Event

Exhaustion is a spiritual event.  Spiritually, you are way overextended.  You are on a treadmill you haven’t been able to get off of.

In today’s world, the list of causes of exhaustion is seemingly endless.  For starters, a good night’s sleep is important.  Give yourself permission  to relax.

Regular reflexology, Reiki, and chakra healing  sessions can offer you relaxation you never thought you could achieve.

Exhaustion is a sense of tiredness and energy depletion that a good night’s sleep cannot fix.  If you wake up in the morning fatigued, you need to pay attention to your body, your soul, your mind, and your feelings.  This feeling, exhaustion, is a spiritual event.

If it’s any consolation, I have been where you may be now.  Exhaustion stopped me right in my tracks.    You can get over it if you can focus on it.

The purpose of this blog post is to let you know that you can get beyond your exhaustion.  You may feel that you have no energy at all.  But, you do have the energy to get beyond this feeling you experience now.

CHAKRA

Exhaustion is an imbalance of all chakras

REFLEXOLOGY SYSTEMS TO WORK

Until you know the cause of your exhaustion, ask your reflexologist to work your endocrine system, immune system, nervous system, and digestive system.

ESSENTIAL OILS

frankincense, grapefruit, lavender, lemongrass, mandarin, myrrh, peppermint, rosemary, sweet orange, vetiver, ylang ylang

EXHAUSTION AND YOUR DIET

This is a good time to visit a nutritionist.  But, whether you do or not, clean up your diet and focus on eating clean, fresh, vegetables and fruits.  Eat the best food you can for your body.

CONSULT A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL

Exhaustion is one of the best reasons I can think of to consult a medical professional.  You need to rule out any medical issues.  It is time to repair yourself and regain your health.  Get to the bottom of what is causing your exhaustion.

FINALLY…

Better health is waiting for you.  You just need to find it.

Eczema is both a spiritual disease and a way of hiding.

Spiritually, you have negative attitudes about unpleasant events in your life.  You want to hide yourself and how you feel.

Eczema is a fairly common skin condition which is become even more common.  Your skin becomes inflamed, red, and itchy, as you react to soaps, detergent, household chemicals, food, house dust, and other environmental irritants.

Eczema’s itchy patches appear on your skin before the redness.  Allergies, immune system overload and stress cause Eczema.  Flaking skin and a rash appear on your legs, hands, face, neck.

Eczema likes inner knees and elbows of children.

If the condition doesn’t improve within a week, or if it becomes infected, you need to see a medical professional.

Regular reflexology, Reiki, and chakra healing sessions will help manage its side effects during treatment.  Regular sessions will also encourage homeostasis as your body normalizes itself when immune system overload is minimized as you clean up your environment.

Eczema triggers which cause outbreaks include animal dander, anger, cleaning products, drugs, foods, fragrances, poor circulation, stress.  One of your tasks with Eczema is to identify which products are your own personal triggers.

The most common foods provoking Eczema attacks include milk, eggs, wheat, fish, and foods with soy.

A journal may help you.  Keep a diary and pinpoint some potential food and environmental triggers.  This will make your eczema experience easier for you.

Eczema happens when your immune system is overloaded so a clean environment is critical.  This includes air, your body, car, home, work place, and the water you drink and wash with.

When you clean out the toxins, your health will have a chance to improve.  When this happens, your reflexology sessions will be more effective, and you will have a better chance to manage Eczema’s side effects.

In the middle of this, try to get a little sun every day.

This information may be a bit daunting.  However, cleaning up your body and the environment where you live and work is easier than you might think.  For starters, throw out all your cleaning  supplies and cosmetics.  Replace them with non-toxic products which won’t worsen your situation.

Then, clean up your diet by cooking and eating only foods which have no artificial colors, flavors, preservatives.  Eat nothing with additives.

It has been said that health begins and ends in the color.  You may decide to have a colon cleanse followed by a liver cleanse.  The important thing is to treat your digestive disorders.

When you clean up your environment and clean out your body, it will be easier for you to cope with stressful situations.

I cleaned out my body and my home and my car and my workplace.  It was an effort but much easier than it seems.

First, I identified the products I felt were the least threatening to my body.  I did my research and identified Dr. Bronner’s soap as my household cleanser.  I chose my creams from three companies:  Dr. Hauschka, Jurlique, and Weleda.  I chose Jurlique and used it for years.  I finally switched to Weleda because I could buy it locally at Woodstock Apothecary.

But, I never replaced the cosmetics I threw out.  I decided I didn’t need them.  I’ve saved myself many hours and much money by not wasting money on or time applying make-up to my face every day.  I saved the cosmetics for parties.

Dr. Bronner’s soap worked well for me because my body liked the product.  I chose the peppermint formula and still use it every day My transition to Dr. Bronner’s was easy because the company has a “cheat sheet” with all the recipes I needed.  Dr. Bronner’s is also on You Tube.  I also liked Dr. Bronner’s because I could buy it everywhere.

I chose my first recipe when I bought a small, glass dropper bottle and filled it with Dr. Bronner’s.  I use one drop of Dr. Bronner’s soap when I brush my teeth.  (Yes, it tastes just like soap!)

My clothes experienced a transition, too.  For starters, I really now have very few pieces in my wardrobe that need dry cleaning.  (Non-existent dry cleaning bills were a nice surprise!)

I use Dr. Bronner’s to clean every room in my house.  The Cheat Sheet had all the recipes.

CHAKRA

Eczema is a fourth chakra imbalance.

REFLEXOLOGY SYSTEMS TO WORK

immune system, nervous system, lymphatics, digestive system, circulatory system, liver solar plexus

ESSENTIAL OILS

bergamot, carrot seed, frankincense, geranium, helichrysum, juniper, lavender, myrrh, peppermint, sweet orange, tea tree, yarrow

FIELDS OF HEALING

Conventional medicine, Traditional Chinese medicine, Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Herbalism.  Eczema responds well to many types of healing. Begin with conventional medicine and then branch out to alternative, complimentary, and integrative medicines.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES

Keep damaged skin moist using an oil-based cream.  Apply emollients liberally and frequently, preferably twice daily.  Use a humidifier to moisturize dry, indoor air.

TREATMENT GOAL

If you can avoid the itch-scratch-itch cycle and prevent potential infection, your situation will improve.

OTHER THINGS YOU MAY TRY

Bathe in lukewarm water using soaps that don’t contain perfumes or dyes.  After you bathe, pat your skin dry.  Follow this with a rich, thick, moisturizing cream.

Reduce your exposure to allergens.  Allergy shots may be appropriate.

Treat yourself to about fifteen minutes of sun every day.

SOME QUESTIONS TO ASK

Is the real me trying to come out.  What am I trying to escape from?

Endometriosis: a Spiritual Disease Focusing on Insecurity

Spiritually, endometriosis is insecurity, disappointment, and frustration.  You are physically rejecting your feminine aspects.  You experience rejection from men when you devalue and deny yourself.

Endometriosis can cause a lot of trouble in your life.  Endometriosis happens when the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows outside your uterine cavity.  On occasion, it may spread throughout your pelvis.  Endometriosis can be tremendously painful and lead to heavy bleeding.

Endometriosis feels a little like heavy menstrual bleeding, menstrual cramps, and it goes along with irritable bowel syndrome.

I believe that endometriosis hides other conditions that have not been noticed.  I feel it covers for hernias, chronic bladder issues, cystitis.  Because of this, I urge you, if you have been diagnosed with endometriosis, to seek out and treat other conditions which contribute to your pelvic discomfort.  Include allergies in this search for hidden causes of abdominal pain.

CHAKRA

Endometriosis is a second chakra imbalance

REFLEXOLOGY SYSTEMS TO WORK

reproductive system, endocrine system, liver, solar plexus, immune system, nervous system, muscular system,

ESSENTIAL OILS

clary sage, fennel, sage

SUGGESTED HEALING SYSTEMS

Conventional medicine, Traditional Chinese medicine, Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Herbalism.  Begin your treatment with conventional medicine and supplement allopathic medicine with complementary and alternative medicine techniques where practical.  Integrative medicine is appropriate here.

Visit a physician specialist first.

THINGS TO TRY

Increase your consumption of Omega-3 fatty acids.  Adopt a low-glycemic diet.  Eat fiber-rich food to include bran, dry beans, whole grains, fresh vegetables, fresh fruit, berries.  Include soy foods in your diet.  Learn Biofeedback techniques.  Get surgery.  Exercise regularly.  Avoid obesity.

Constipation, a Spiritual Problem We all Have Occasionally (At Least)

Spiritually, you are stuck in the past, refusing to give up old ideas.  You hold onto safe beliefs.  Learning to release the past is an important process when you combat constipation on a spiritual level.  Fear of the unknown is definitely part of the mix.  As you move into the future, less worry and fear help.  Focus on deepening your contact with your power center.  Finally, develop feelings of self-respect.

Try to connect with your power center and respect yourself more deeply.

Some people feel three bowel movements a day is normal.  Others feel three movements a week is normal.  Infrequent bowel movements, hard stools, abdominal discomfort are common.

A low-fiber diet and dehydration contribute to constipation.  Other triggers include too much processed food, stress, not enough exercise.

Reflexology sessions comfort the digestive process.  People receiving reflexology sessions regularly claim to not have problems with bowel irregularity.

This claim is especially popular with parents of young children who have problems with bowel movements.  Children who receive reflexology sessions have a difficult time being constipated.

Constipation is a condition can require the attention of a medical professional.  isit your physician to rule out any underlying medical conditions.  This is especially true if your constipation comes on suddenly or if there’s blood in your stool.

Marge d’Urso, my reflexology teacher, taught us to expect fifty per cent of our client partners to have issues with constipation.  The good news is that the condition seldom continues as regular reflexology sessions progress.  This is true of both children and adults.  Her teachings make regular reflexology sessions the backbone of constipation resolution.

CHAKRA

Constipation is a first and third chakra imbalance.

REFLEXOLOGY SYSTEMS TO WORK

liver, gall bladder, diaphragm, endocrine system, lower spine, ileocecal valve, sigmoid

When your reflexologist works the digestive system in a reflexology session, your intestinal tract will begin to normalize itself.

When you receive reflexology sessions regularly to deal with constipation, you will probably feel better, have more energy, look better, have a more positive outlook on life, and develop better eating habits.

A colon cleanse followed by a liver cleanse along with regularly scheduled reflexology sessions will improve things.

ESSENTIAL OILS

anise, fennel, ginger, lemon, mandarin, peppermint, rosemary, sweet orange, tarragon

EFFECTIVE HEALING FIELDS

Conventional medicine, Traditional Chinese medicine, Naturopathy, Homeopathy, Herbalism.  Complimentary, Alternative, and Integrative medicine all have theories, remedies, and modalities to help with your constipation.  Indeed, so many people in our country have constipation that it seems everyone suffers with it.

IMPORTANT FOODS IN YOUR DIET

brown rice, dried fruits, fresh fruits, green vegetables, leafy vegetables, oats, pine nuts, yogurt

RISK FACTORS

insufficient fluids, low fiber, high fat diet, not getting enough vitamin C, sedentary lifestyle

THINGS TO TRY

Things which may help improve overall digestive health include dry brushing after bathing, using a mini trampoline regularly to clean the lymphatic system.   Prebiotics and probiotics help.  Consuming more dietary fiber regularly along with sufficient fluids is essential.  Finally, avoid stress whenever possible.  Exercise daily. Include high-fiber foods, whole-grain breads, leafy vegetables.  Regular reflexology sessions help.

QUESTIONS TO ASK

What is it about the unknown that I am afraid of?  How can I trust the unknown parts of my life?  What is holding me back from what I want to do?
