For the past 4 days, I have been doing a "reboot" - I watched the movie "Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead" with Joe Cross and I was inspired to spend the next 15 days juicing and eating only "micronutrient rich" foods like fruits, vegetables and nuts/seeds. Day 4 is almost over and I am feeling so energetic and healthy. It is really worth a try. Juicing and preparing fresh food is soul enriching and body enhancing.

This blog deals with subjects surrounding the integration of spiritual practice and techniques with alternative medicine, natural healing and body work for the improvement and maintenance of good health.

Response to a letter from Jim DeMint that I got in my email.
Senator DeMint,
I am not sure why you think that providing access to
medicine is an assault on religious freedom.
Those who do not believe in a certain medicine or procedure are FREE to
choose differently. Freedom is the RIGHT
to choose according to one's beliefs, not according to the beliefs of
others. If the options are not
available, the people who want them will not have access to them. That would be unfair.
A morning after pill is not abortion. It prevents pregnancy. If you think that life begins when the sperm
hits the egg, then what do we do about all those spontaneous
"abortions" that happen each and every month in women's bodies when
the body rejects the zygote? I suppose
next you will mandate a drug that prevents even that from happening?
Birth control should be covered by insurance if a person
chooses to take it. Not paying for it is
like not paying for Viagra if a man has penile erectile dysfunction. And sterilization? Do you mean hysterectomy? Tubal litigation? Again, those are choices that people make and
they can have an impact on health. It
should be the same as any other procedure.
I am a supporter of anyone's right to believe what they want
and to act according to their beliefs (as long as they don't harm another
person) and I am a supporter of a person's inalienable right to access the
medical care they need. The government
should not choose what you do with or to your body, but they should ensure that
there is no bias in the provision of healthcare services based on religious
standpoints.
It is time to get religion out of the business of government
and back into the business it was intended for - to care for a person's
spiritual being. This is democracy, not
"ideocracy". If we are to be
truly free, then we have to be as free from religious zealots as we are from
religious oppression and religious dictatorship. Power to the people.
Yours truly,

Barn Heart
I have just learned that I have "Barn Heart Disease" - as described by Jenna Woginrich in her book of the same name (Barn Heart). I haven't read the book yet, but I am sure that I will find a lot in there to enjoy.
