In Search of my lost self
In Search of my lost self.
I have been writing for the last week about the 3rd Festival of Traditional Medicine, an event I attended at Rancho Los Chabaconos, the Rancho of the Apricots, May 11-12-13. Today, I am feeling a yearning to rediscovery Traditional Medicine in my own life. I am seeing into my current life situation, and feeling into my body pains, and the messes around me. I want to slow down and make some shifts.

In search of my lost self

8:43 am
I have felt some lonely moments since coming back from the 3rd Festival of Traditional Medicine In Tecate, Mexico. The event was held at Rancho Los Chabacanos, on land where the centerpiece for me was a pond surrounded by natural plants who found a home in the roots of the dark pond mud. There were a few ducks I could see in the distance at the other end of the pond, and then in various places, Apricot trees that gave the place its name. Chabacanos means Apricots.
The crowning glory was of course the special souls who came to the gathering. Our common thread was that we wanted to find a home again on mother earth.
On Sunday of Mother's Day I had the opportunity to plant dreams with those who came to the marketplace. I do not speak Spanish, but I do well in a bilingual situation where what I have to say is repeated.
My Lonliness and sense of lost self is that this event opened my eyes. I saw for a moment my right relationship with plants at a higher octave. Brian Hornbeck gave an herb walk. He talked about how he used a plant there for
various body conditions. The plant was growing all over the place.
Connecting with Matthew Wood, Herbalist
I also connected with herbalist Matthew Wood. There was a kinship between us. He also knew the herbs--part of the medicine of Nature's Original Technology. For the longest time, I have felt the plants on the sidelines of life. They hold profound gifts and a message that the earth is already has a perfect technology.
The Capstone for my experience was spending time this last Saturday eve with another man who appreciates the indigenous healers. His name is Roy Ditmann, author of the book Brighton Baby.
The talk and discussion that followed made me aware that I am living personally in a dangerous environment that may be increasing the aches and pains I am feeling in my body.
Smart Meters are not healthy
Twice on Saturday I heard about Smart Meters, these devices that make is easier for the Utility company to check the usage without coming up to the meter. The Smart People, in there artificial intelligence, beam out extreme electromagnetic waves that are not healthy for the body. Wifi, this devices I use constantly now, is also not healthy.
Dependency on Pills in Bottles
The truth is I have to admit is that I am not comfortable in my body. I have become dependent on some rather good natural pain relievers to keep going the way I do. Matthew Wood did a reading on me, and said I was malnourished. The last few months, I have had some improvement with the way of digest food, but basically, I push myself.
My head goes from one idea to another within a matter of moments. Maybe it is because of my constant use of the computer or the environment that I am in. My mind is a brilliant expression of listening and attempting to do the things that need to be done to heal our planet, but in route, I have created massive uncomfortable messes around me in my space.
I do not think I could clear things up--organize things if I stopped everything and just paid attention to what is around me. I have great discomfort living in this mess. More and more, my successes have been based on leaving home for trips where I see glimpses of positive reflections, but in my immediate space, what reflects back at me are this impossible states of disorder that I know effect my mind.
Hip Pains
I have been sitting too long already. is the only way I can live taking pills? Dr. Bernard Jensen Wrote a book called "Nature has a Remedy." Are there still natural remedies for me that can improve my condition?
My hip joins were replaced and revised artificially. I owe surgery to the gift that I am walking today. Maybe I need to be grateful for how far I have come, and give thanks that I can walk at all.
The entire year has been an uphill climb. I have questioned if I had what it took to do what I committed to do. Somehow I accomplished what has felt like a climb up a mountain over and over again.
The last two gatherings--being Uncle Leslie at Hami High, and then the Journey to the 3rd Festival of Traditional Medicine brought me to the peak of the mountain, and I have come down the other side.
My mind continues to race. I am constantly in creation mode.
It is time to evaluate and clean up.
It is time to plant new seeds at home.
There are a few more things I need to do though.
There are always a few more things I feel I must do.
