For my readers and fans.

You made all the years of incessant writing and the piles of rejection letters all worthwhile. Thank you!

My perspective, as a veteran in the metaphysical healing movement, is that everyone is on a healing journey during their lifetime. Theres always some challenge that needs a solution. This is very apparent at the collective level where the repetition of patterns of war and strife are prevalent. Perhaps now at this seemingly critical moment in human history in which weve created such a multiplicity of challenges at the world level including global warming, overpopulation, massive poverty, rampant disease, world starvation and species extinction, there is an opportunity for a mass paradigm shift, a transformation in our way of thinking and behaving in which we move from competition to cooperation.

I believe we can look to nature for solutions to our individual and global challenges. Nature and natural life have been adapting to change and evolving for hundreds of thousands of years. If you observe nature you can see that she works holistically and in cooperation through cycles of time to sustain herself. Historically, when things get out of balance, there is massive die-off of species, and natural habitats shift to bring balance once again. I believe we are in one of those major points on planet Earth.

From the metaphysical perspective, everything is working perfectly to bring balance into the crisis point we are faced with on planet Earth. Its attuning to and aligning with natural forces to support them in this natural process of evolution that will help restore balance.

Transformation and healing are always available. Its our willingness to align with natural forces that guides us to see the opportunities available in our own personal life and for planetary evolution. Humans can be the stewards that allow this evolution to take place.

Essential oils can help with this process of transformation and change. On an individual level, when used properly, essential oils can act like trusted allies and friends to help you shift and handle any challenges you may be faced withwhether they be physical, mental, emotional or spiritualin order to become more integrated and whole.

As a metaphysician and holistic healing practitioner, Ive explored using many forms of transformation and healing. Over time Ive come to focus solely on working with my clients at the metaphysical and energetic level. Your emotion is literally energy in motion. Resistance to feeling the energy expressed as your emotions creates stress in your body, and physical tension builds. Resistance and the suppression of emotions is at the core of most illness and disease. When you release the blocked patterns of emotional resistance, the natural process of transformation thats always available can occur to bring you back into balance, and healing occurs naturally.

Young children express the inner joy that comes with the experience of being alive. Children are naturally inquisitive and creative. Before age four, the majority of children test at genius level, and by age ten they test at average intelligence. The conditioning and indoctrination children experience results in suppression of their natural talents and abilities.

As I began exploring metaphysical healing, I was introduced to the transformational healing arts at Findhorn, a spiritual community in northern Scotland. Findhorn is one of the largest intentional communities in the world and a working eco-village that was created to inspire and encourage transformation in human consciousness. Findhorn is renowned for growing huge vegetables, produced in cooperation with nature spirits.

While at Findhorn, my communication with the Devic kingdom opened fully. It was like coming home to myself. After Findhorn, I relocated to San Diego, California, a mecca for evolving consciousness and learning about and practicing the healing arts. My own personal healing journey continued as I explored a wide variety of cutting-edge healing modalities. Having a direct personal experience of whatever I taught or used in my practice was essential for me. The same has been true with using essential oils.

Having so many of my own health challenges to heal has been a blessing in that I know firsthand what my client must face and overcome. Though each client is an individual and has their own personal experience, there are similar patterns that surface and must be exposed and released so that natural healing may occur.

Much of the healing journey is about forgiving and releasing the past. We make decisions often in early childhood about what things mean and get locked into perspectives, attitudes and beliefs about ourselves and life that can undermine our best attempts at creating a happy life for ourselves. We develop a storyline for our life. When were affected by these patterns of thinking and behaving, we generate the same chemicals that create the same emotional set points. These emotional set points can hardwire us into feeling depressed or frustrated and angry most of the time. Emotional patterns can become chronic.

Its very simple to release these set points, though it can take time to fully cleanse your cup, so to speak, and to experience a paradigm shift and a new way of life for yourself. Ill cover more of this when I speak about the different oils and how they can specifically help you. Youll understand how to use essential oils to help you holistically at all levels of being: body, mind, spirit and emotions.

Ill share some of my own direct personal experiences about how Ive used the oils with myself and my clients with outstanding results. I will also pepper in a few of my other preferred methods that will allow you to align with the transformation and healing that is always available to you.
