It's great to see you all here again! I just have a couple

ANNOUNCEMENT #1:
I would like to extend a welcome to Marge Clark who

and I will be more than happy to share it with her.
Welcome aboard Marge!
ANNOUNCEMENT #2:
On behalf of Your Life-Your Choice, I am constantly
looking for ways to provide you with more quality
information and more value. I have received very
positive feedback on last month's Magnetic Therapy
feature. Consequently, Your Life-Your Choice has
arranged for Dr. Boyce N. Berkel to continue his
contributions on this issue. Welcome to the Your Life-
Your Choice Team, Dr. Berkel!
In order to facilitate space requirements, we will be
sending out a second supplement.
ANNOUNCEMENT #3:
Nutritionist Wanted!!!
To complement the new supplement and its' proposed
contents, I would like to offer a regular feature article
on basic nutrition. Topics would cover issues like:
Foods That Help Control Cholesterol, Do Carrots Really
Help Your Eyesight?, and many more.
Your Life-Your Choice is currently looking for a certified

Section 2 TESTIMONIES FOR SUCCESS
Dear Your Life-Your Choice,
My mother-in-law was having a real problem with a weak
bladder. Her homeopathic doctor encouraged her to take
a combination of Juniper Berries and Echinacea. Within a
week she noticed some improvement, and after a month
her bladder was working normally. She's been absolutely
thrilled with the results!

Dear Your Life-Your Choice,
My daughter was diagnosed with ADD - Attention
Deficit Disorder. The doctor perscribed Ritalin for
her. I didn't like the side effects it was having on her.
I started giving her an herb originating from grape
seed extract. Within a week we noticed a major
difference. So far she's experience no side effects
from this. She is now off Ritalin and her school
work has improved 100%.

Section 3 Holistic Dowsing
By Joe Mullally
Part two - GETTING STARTED
If we approach dowsing as a 'conversation with the
intuition' then our first step is to set up and agree a
mutually understood language for this dialogue. Getting
this part right is the key to obtaining reliable information
from dowsing. We must bear in mind that we are
dealing with the subconscious mind which has little
critical faculty and so, everything we ask and say to it
will be taken literally. For instance, in the UK one time,
a hypnotised subject obeyed her hypnotist's instruction
to go 'straight back to her seat in the audiance' to the
letter, and promptly walked off the front of the stage
(not thinking to go by the side stairs ) with tragic
consequences. This is how literally the subconscious
takes suggestions and this is why it is so important to
'get our language right'. The attention, time and patience
we give to this one factor, will have a crucial impact on
our working results. The considered effort we put into
planning the language and defining the terms we use
will, itself helps instill precision in our minds even before
we put the results into practise. And the more we attend
to such preparations, the more we and our intuition
come to learn about and understand eachother. Our first
step to opening communications lies in finding our pendulum
'Yes' and 'No' and 'don't know' responses. If you already
use the pendulum stay with your own method. Never
change from what already works for you - 'if it aint
broke, don't fix it!'. Readers new to dowsing may like to
follow the startup method given here. Some teachers
advise you train the pendulum to give specific responses,
I am from the school prefer if you ask the pendulum for
it's own natural movements in each case instead.
And so to work! Allow your pendulum (any small weight
attached to a line) to hang down with three to four inches
of line length, pinched between the thumb and first finger
of your dominent hand. Begin by consciously swinging it
toward and away from you, then letting your hand remain
still so the tool continues to swing on it's own. This is
called the NEUTRAL or 'ready' position. If the motion
slows simply swing it consciously again before relaxing
your hand once more to leave it on it's own. Now, ask
a question in your mind to which you know the answer
is a definite YES and direct the pendulum mentally to
show you your YES response. If you observe all this
passively and relaxed for a time, eventually the
pendulum will change it's motion 'on it's own' usually
forming a circle ( either clockwise or anti - clockwise )
or swinging to and fro in a different direction to the
NEUTRAL. This new motion is your YES response
and once you have agreed it with your pendulum, it will
always remains the same. Next, stop the pendulum and
CLEAR it by grasping the line near the suspension point,
with the thumb and first finger of your 'free hand' and by
pulling them lightly down along the line, 'stroking the line'
from top to bottom. You repeat this a few times while
emptying your mind of previous questions and thoughts.
When all is clear, you may move on to repeat the same
questioning procedure again, getting your NO and
finally your DON'T KNOW responses in the same
fashion. Remember to CLEAR your pendulum and
your mind, after each new question you ask. If for some
reason you find that this exercise is not working out for
you at your first attempt, leave the pendulum aside and
start again in a few hours time. Should your pendulum
continually refuse to provide a 'natural' response for any
of the three 'answers' then, in this case, you may train it
to move any way you choose to indicate that particular
'answer'. This is done by moving the pendulum in the
desired motion while mentally affirming that this is the
response you require. This may then be tested by asking
a question and verifying the pendulum now autonmatically
adopts the 'learned' response you showed it. Your next
task is to take your time and write out your definition for
each term you intend to use in your divining work. For
instance, if you intend checking for allergies using your
pendulum, it is vital to agree exactly what you mean by
'an allergy' to a substance. Do you want the pendulum
to show up any substance which has ever or will ever
'disagree' with the person. Are transient 'sensitivities'
which might last for only a short time, to be included
in the term also - or will you use a separate term
( such as the'sensitivity' word itself ) to cover these.
Give these things a lot of thought, spell them out, refine
them well so you get them precise and right, for this will
serve as the foundation for your future dowsing work.
Many times when dowsing faculty seems to be unreliable
the remedy lies in redefining our terms and questions
correctly.
The final part of the process is to relax quietly, ask your
pendulum if it is ready at this time to have you input the
terms and conditions you've settled upon, and provided
you get a YES response, read the terms aloud as your
pendulum continues in your YES response. When the
list is finished, say so, indicating also that these conditions
are to remain in force without change unless and until you
modify them by going throught the above procedure
again. Your pendulum will then return to the NEUTRAL
response pattern.
When your YES and NO and DON'T KNOW
responses have been agreed and your TERMS
and CONDITIONS have been securely input, you
may move on to train and exercise your new skill
over the next ten days. Each day sit in a quiet place,
take out your pendulum, breath deeply and relax
your body and mind. Ask your pendulum ten
questions, the answers of which are known to you,
allowing the instrument to reply to you using the 'agreed'
responses in each case. Exercise for no longer than ten
minutes on each day. At the end of this ten day program,
you can proceed to ask the pendulum any questions you
wish. Providing always that you relax in the correct frame
of mind, that your questions are precise complying with
your agreed terms and conditions - that your intuition has
access at some level to the information requested - and
also that receiving such information will be in accordance
with your own personal ethical and moral code, then you
will be given the answer. Getting a DON'T KNOW
response indicates that the question as asked, poses a
problem in some of the areas above. Even when this
occurs, one can usually ask and determine the precise
area and reason for the lack of response without much
difficulty.
In Part 3 of our series we will explore the important
issues relating to the use of lists, charts and witnesses.

Section 5 AROMATHERAPY: GETTING STARTED.
By Marge Clark
I first came in contact with the essential oils perhaps 15
years ago, as a way to scent potpourri. Their healing
power awed and fascinated me from the start. Several
years of study and experimentation with the essential oils
followed. Finally, a few years ago, I was given the
opportunity to leave behind a lifetime spent in the
corporate world and do what I love. The founding of
Nature's Gift Custom Aromatherapy Products followed,
partially as a way to finance and rationalize my experiencing
more and higher quality oils, and as a way to share my love
for them with others. When not dealing with the oils, I am a
grandmother, live in a small over crowded house with my
partner, my grown daughter, three dogs and four cats (not
all mine!) I have been online for about 12 years and am
really delighted that the internet gives me a venue to learn
from others, and to share what I've learned.
-----
Aromatherapy is derived from the ancient practice
of using natural plant essences to promote health and
well-being. It consists of the use of pure essential oils
obtained from a wide assortment of plants, which have
been steam distilled or cold-pressed from flowers, fruit,
bark and roots. The appropriate oils can have powerful
effects, both on the body and the spirit. "Fragrance Oils,"
"Perfumes" and other artificially made substitutes cannot
produce these amazing results.
Modern scientific research has proven the potency
and healing qualities of pure Essential Oils. Many have
powerful antibacterial and antiviral qualities which, unlike
pharmaceutical drugs, do not leave behind dangerous
toxins.
Intrigued? Want to try some of these wonderful oils for
yourself? My first recommendation would be to educate
yourself. Put yourself in the hands of someone
knowledgeable in the field, either locally, if possible, or if
not, through the library and the Internet. Read everything
you can about the oils and their effects, and don't be afraid
to experiment.
To start with, many of us first tried Lavender. It is an oil
that can occasionally be used full strength on the skin and
is a virtual 'first aid' cabinet in and of itself. A touch of
lavender essential oil on the temples and back of the neck
can ease a headache. A drop of full strength lavender can
soothe and help heal a minor burn, bug bite, or skin
outbreak. It is a potent antiseptic, and an antibacterial,
antifungal and antiviral agent.
If you have a local source for true essential oils, use it. Or
order from online vendors. Check the Latin Name. You
want either LAVENDULA VERA or L. AUGUSTIFOLIUM,
L.OFFICINALIS. If it is labled Lavandin it will have different
properties and not work as expected.
Now, what to do with it, other than for the " first aid "
purposes listed above?
Lavender is lovely in the bath. As with most essentials,
6 to 10 drops is enough. Rather than adding the oil directly
to the bathwater (because essentials don't blend with water)
try diluting the lavender in a tablespoon or so of honey, a
teaspoon of unscented bath oil, or for a Cleopatra luxury
bath, some cream.
Or you can make your own bath salts by mixing Epsom
salts, sea salt or table salt, and/or powdered milk, and
adding lavender. Bottle these and let them stand for a week
or ten days.
A lavender bath will relax tired muscles and a tired mind.
It's a wonderful way to relax before bedtime. Be careful
not to use too much, however; too much lavender can be
stimulating, rather than relaxing.
To induce restful sleep, put a few drops of lavender on a
cotton ball or tissue and tuck it into the corner of your
pillow case.Ten drops of lavender to one half ounce of
your favorite carrier oil makes a wonderfully relaxing
massage oil. The same massage blend, with an appropriate
facial oil, could be a valuable part of your skin care routine.
The above are just a few hints to get you started.
Coming next month:
using Essential Oils safely.
