I first really got introduced to natural

medicine about 14 years ago by an immunologist who was treating my CFS. He

tested my blood and hair for nutritional needs and had a compound pharmacist

make me a supplement uniquely for my body. I was also on a cyto-toxic

diet, which is really a vegetarian diet. Then when I had the boys a

couple of years later and they were having problems, I really started

researching anything I could find on herbs and nutrition. Modern medicine

does not have anything to offer for my kids’ autism. I joined a

group of witches on , and learned a lot from them. I read books when

I could afford them, and I looked things up on the internet. Through my

pagan friends I found other groups, met Suzi and Don, and eventually helped

form this group.

Oh and , Superman ducks when you throw

a revolver at him because he does not want his hair mussed duhhhhhh. LOL

Last night was " capsuling night " . We all got

out various things, and we

capsuled.

I did Tonic mash, Marilyn did flax seed, and did citrus rind

(all were pulverizided).

As much fun as I have with this type of life-style, it really is great

to see that (my 9, almost 10 year old) taking it to heart and

being enthusiastic about it.

I'm curious, how did you all learn the Craft? Was it passed down? A

consious lifestyle change? Life or Death?

Just something I'm thinking about this Sunday morning

Peace, love, laughter

I was a teenage survivalist hoping armegeddon would come so I

wouldn't have to worry about passing algebra. Had all kinds of

fantasies to feed by learning " survival skills " and adopting a

preparedness lifestyle. Funny thing was, the further I got into the

survivalist movement of the early 80's the more I saw what they were

advocating was pretty much how I was brought up. Have a homestead in a

rural community and develop skills that would be useful for helping

yourself and others. I grew up on a homestead and was already doing

that, my mom taught me far more about plants in the garden than " The

American Survival Guide " magazine ever provided. With a stitch in the

army I realized how ridiculous militism was and went over to the

treehugging nature worshiping yoga reiki freaks. Along the way fell

into the role of teaching wild edible and medicinal plants to people

interested in learning earth living skills. I guess the 3 most

influential teachers were dandelion, plantain, and comfrey but Tom

Brown Jr, Sherwood, and " Doc " were pretty

influential too.

I learned a lot from Wiccans, even dabbled in it when I was younger.

Then I went much darker, ending up involved with the Temple of Set,

in the Order of the Werewolf. But that's another story.

I have a couple of friends that are Wiccan, and our Herbalist back in

CA is Wiccan, and an INCREDIBLE fount of information.

We glean what we can from who we can. I read once that when a student

is ready, a teacher will come. I have definitely found it to be true.

Peace, love, laughter

ps

Speaking of Superman. I don't know if you know this, but I am a comic

collector/trader/buyer/seller. I have more comics in my private

collection than most retail stores I've been to. My home office is

covered with Superman stuff.

Why do they call it an asteroid when it's outside the hemisphere, but

call it a hemorrhoid when it's in your butt?

Why thank you Janet. Mine started years ago with a preminition or insight or whatever you call it that I was supposed to touch alot of peoples lives... back then I didn't understand.. then later my neighbor came down with cancer and my chiro's wife was into herbs... and I learned about essiac... (I knew a little about herbs prior to this, even had an "awakening" dream about being a "shaman"...) well, started making essiac to help the neighbor and one thing led to another.. Have always felt that God left us everything we need to heal ourselves, we just have to find it before man destroys it. I started looking for a list.. found one, even moderated it for over a year... till I disagreed with politics... so Don and I decided we needed a group dedicated to alternative medicines (not politics)... Janet came with us and we got the group going.. joined us shortly after and the "rest is history"...

I got my start looking for alternatives for my Thyroid.

I first started with a Thyroid board and then someone there had

mentioned an herb board, that's when i joined the one Suzi, DOn and

Janet used to belong to and left to join them when this group formed

(guido you was there too ) )

Anyway, about the same time as i was seeking alternatives, i met DH

and he was anti-pharma and very into supplements and herbs. He

pushed me to drop my meds and really adopt this life-style.

Since then DH has taken one of Doc C's courses, and i read everything

i can to try and stay on top of things.

My G-kids when living here, they were starting to adopt the lifestyle

and sometimes will call us when they get a sorethroat

for " something " before their mom takes them to the Medico.

I try to tell as many people as i can about herbs, and doing all they

can to learn or read about ways that were around long before

Pharmaceuticals. I try to explain as kindly as i can that the

creator put everything we need to heal ourselves on the earth, and

that mankind survied and flourished just fine for many thousands of

years before the Pharmies ever existed.

Anyway, sorry for the long answer.

Gayla,

Please, please, please keep us informed and up to date about the hip

replacement!! If there is anything you need, a phone call, a hand to

hold, a bit of humour or pathos, let us know!

You know I am a Praying Man, so you will be there in the forefront of

my mind daily.

And remember to take Joy. Laugh every moment you get. " Joy is in the

ear that hears " , have JOYOUS EARS!

Peace, love, laughter

" Your sorrow itself shall be turned into joy. Not the sorrow to be

taken away, and joy to be put in it's place, but the very sorrow

which now grieves you shall be turned into joy. God not only takes

away the bitterness and gives sweetness in it's place, but turns the

bitterness into sweetness itself. " Spurgeon

> I guess I was simply meant to travel in this direction. Which is

weird, considering I am going to have to have a hip replacement soon.

I tried to get it straightened out with natural methods, but it is

disintegrating as I type.

-Hi Suzi and All

I started on herbs about 7 years ago seriously, before that Ibought

some health pills at the discount store once in awhile..they did

nothing for me.

But I had migrain headaches back than or what they call spectral lights

or ziggy things in my vision. I found out from a health store gal that

she also suffered from the same distracting migrain that is related to

stress or a tension headach, I think it has to do with your balance

because I put up with alot of stress and will have rare spectral

headaches without the pain. Anyhow this gal said to take flax oil pills

daily one in the morning and at bedtime and a good fish oil along with

a vitamin E supplement daily. I have been on this regiment ever since

and never have any more symtoms, hardly ever anymore. maybe two times a

year if that even. I take a max fish oil pill and have no pain in my

joints or knees ever unless I work really hard outside and the pain

subsides in a day or so with rest. I take spinach pills or anything to

imprive or maintain my good vision.

today I juiced again with a melon muskmelon that was overipe in our

refig and I noticed a few small soft spots in placesmbut the melon was

sweet and juicy so I juiced that with my carrots..Ummm was that good!

So gang I found another ingredient to juice with carrots thats so

smooth and mellow , absolutely delicious!
