Wisdom of Healing

Hello All,

Here are the ‘winning entries’ for the Carnival of Healing #62 for December 2, 2006. Thanks to all who sent this great information in. May we all glean the gems we need in this moment to further grow and create goodness in our paths.

I love to find other excellent natural health writers that really tell it like it is! The real truth about natural health is hard to find, but Vreni Gurd presents a convincing argument for ditching the processed foods and nurturing the body with the vital nutrients found in organic foods in: Eat – What is organic food? posted at the excellent site: wellness tips. There are lots of gems here!

Linda Freedman has written a very moving account on parenting, specifically good fathering in: About Affection: Part 3 posted at her very poignant blogsite: Everyone needs therapy? Lessons from a family therapist. If you are a parent, mark this one as a ‘MUST READ’ and share it with your friends and loved ones. Our young people are crying out for us to remember to show our love for them every day, and it’s time for us, as the adults, to step up to the plate and help to ground the next generation in the power of love and gratitude!

Pets love us unconditionally and on the deepest levels, and Mercurial Scribe shares the healing effect this love has in: Whisper to a Shout posted at Mercurial Scribe. Visit your local shelter soon, and open your heart to the extent that you are able to the love that we all could use just a little bit more of.

John Briffa offers some interesting information regarding wintertime blues in: How vitamin D deficiency in winter poses hazards for our health (and what to do about it), posted at A Good Look at Good Health. His recommendation of cod liver oil daily throughout the winter can indeed be very helpful, but as I always recommend, purchase the very highest quality product available. The two best brands of cod liver oil, from the research I’ve done, are Carlson’s and Nordic Naturals. (Some other brands have been found to be contaminated with very high amounts of heavy metals, including lead and mercury.)

Patricia has provided us with a list of very practical ideas for those days when your body just needs to break down, rest and recover. How To Use A Sick Day To Change Your Life is posted at A Better You Blog. Personal growth happens when we give it attention, even when we’re feeling a bit under the weather.

We all create the world we live in every time we spend a dollar or pay a bill. Barbra Sundquist has written a beautiful brief post on the importance of choosing where we spend our hard-earned cash in: Compassion and Business: Not Mutually Exclusive, posted at HomeBusinessWiz. Thank you, Barbara!

Chris Gribble shares with us a wonderful guided meditation to quiet, create and invigorate in: A Celtic Meditation Exercise – Hand Meditation posted at ChrisGribble.com.

Laura Young offers several practical tips to help us focus on getting down to the business of living life more fully by doing what we need to be doing with the right attitude. Becoming More Disciplined posted at her site: Dragon Slayer’s Guide to Life. This might be ideal for those of us who are hoping to be more disciplined on the path to achieving our goals.

Renée Alexandrea presents a list of perfect reasons for offering our four legged friends the pleasures of pet massage in: 10 Benefits of Therapeutic Canine Massage ~~ Small Dogs Paradise : Holistic Approach to Pampering Small Dogs posted at a great site: Small Dogs Paradise. Any dog would feel thankful to know that their person has checked out this fine post.

Mary Emma Allen has written about the importance of caring for ourselves when we are the caregiver for a loved one. Please read: Healing and the Alzheimer’s Caregiver posted at Alzheimer’s Notes.

Wow! lorenzo provides us with a great exploration of our dream time in: Dreams: The Ultimate Second Life posted at RealitySeeds. This one’s certainly worth sharing with others!

John Hill suggests that, because we learn much from our past, we are always where we need to be in Why You Should Never Worry, posted at Universe Of Success .

Michelle Wood offers some sane advice about the importance of eating whole grains in: Friday Food Pharmacy: Pasta & other grain (& sometimes fruit) products found at Living Stress-Free~Naturally.

Dr. Deb offers us a few useful tools for getting through the winter months when we suffer with Seasonal Affectiveness Disorder (SAD). Dr. Deborah Serani: It’s That Time of Year Again: Seasonal Affective Disorder posted at Dr. Deborah Serani.
