I was doing a research paper on curanderas healing women in West Texas and I had stumbled on a curandera named Milagros who lived there in the 1930s. Milagros, it is said, practiced Miracle Thinking and made jewelry to heal the sick and mentally ailing. I was quite interested in her because I had never before heard of a curandera that used jewelry making in her healing practice. I researched libraries, universities, and the National Parks only to find a few tidbits of information about her. Luckily for me, the ad I put in the local newspaper the Big Bend Gazette panned out with a lead as to where she had once lived. I called the lead and learned of a cabin up on Wild Horse Mountain, and I took a winding path (barely visible anymore due to all of the overgrowth). Up the path I went until I came to an old adobe house that was quite dilapidated, but I could tell it had been loved long ago. I decided to go in and take a look through the cobwebs and dust. It was here that I spotted the old prescription book. Leather-bound, with the names of her patients, illnesses and the how-to information to make her healing jewelry, it was a gold mine of information, healing-tea recipes, lotions, potions and, most of all, the recipes for the healing treasures themselves. It was while reading this old prescription book that I came up with the idea to share her recipes with you. I have a sense that that is exactly what she would want me to do.
Just as Milagros used a special book to record her observations, recipes and ideas surrounding the healing power of jewelry, so will you want to have your own Prescription Book. This is where you will record your thoughts and notes about the person you want to help, even if that person is yourself. Other things that can go in your book: herbs you know work well for these types of conditions; the gemstones and colors that correspond to the illness or malady; any objects the person mentions that you may feel could be power objects and any type of thing that rouses emotions within the person. You will jot down thoughts that come to mind while talking with them. It is here that you will design the piece, where you will write down how to make it and what thoughts you were having while you made it. As you may start to see, the prescription book is indispensible.
You can purchase ready-made journals, but I suggest that you make one instead from a composition book. It is a great practice to make your own book because then it is personalized and yours alone. It becomes a special part of your creative heart by making it.
Write the date and year inside of the front cover (or on the spine in metallic marker). Begin the book with your first thoughts on healing or jump right in with your first person you wish to help.
