So this is a blog!
Mood:  quizzical
Now Playing: I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends by The Beatles
Topic: General Info
Hello, everyone! Welcome to the first day of our brand new Blog! I'm not totally sure what a blog is, but we'll find out together, okay?

My idea is that it is a place where I can write my thoughts to you, as can the other team members of All Natural HealthWorks!

Tonight I will just say I am looking so forward to sharing with you. Today while I was mowing the lawn, I was thinking of so many insights I'd like to share. I think this will be a good format for that.

The Message Board on our website is a place where everyone can share ideas on various topics related to natural healing and health. Sharing information and experience is what it's all about. Our great-grandmothers shared these kinds of ideas! That's how folk medicine was passed along, except without electronic device, as we can do now with the internet. This way we can share ideas on healing with people from all over the world!

I'm hoping we'll be learning a LOT of good things together! Let's keep spreading the word!

I am a doctor of naturopathy...an "expert," they say...But we all are the experts in our own right. We just need to know how to recognize the inherant truth in ourselves and in Life. The solution to any problem already exists within the problem itself. We just have to find it and put it to use. We can help each other do that.

(There's not a spot where God is not!)

The website will be up and running soon, and my hope in designing it has been that it will be a resource for learning...a tool...a vehicle to take you where you need to go to find the answers you seek.

We will be discussing ways to recognize valid information from improperly informed advice. There is so much information "out there" that it can be overwhelming sometimes. How do we know what is what? With so many contradictions, it can be hard to know what to believe. We'll talk a lot about that.

We will also be discussing how to find the truth for ourselves. It's a simple process, really, but it can be timestaking in its development. We'll walk through the process together...and help each other to not stray too far from the path.

Healing is not an event; it is a process. It is not something that gets done to us; it is something that comes from within. Medicines don't heal us. Not even herbs. The healing power is inside of us. We were created in the image and likeness of God. Our bodies know how to heal.

Why is it that people should think otherwise? Did our bodies not form from a simple sperm and an egg? Did we not grow arms and legs...and did we not grow smiles? We grew the arms and legs with the programming that was instilled into us by design; and the smiles, we grew with Love! That's all the more it takes to heal!

Healing is simple. The more we complicate it, the farther from the Truth that we stray. The Truth is that we were divinely designed, and that if we but make the best use of what we have been given, we will find that we have all that we need.

When you think about healing, think about what we were given from the very beginning of time. Think about things like sunshine, the moon and the stars. Think about the herbs of the field, the fruit of the vine, and the food that grows from the earth. Think about raindrops...wonderful clean water to drink and to bathe in! Think about songbirds and flowers and love!!!

These are the things through which healing comes. Healing is a magnimous gift given to us by a loving Father and a nurturing, sweet Mother Earth. There has not been one single day in the history of time when we did not have all that we need.

The problem is that we don't always have the wisdom, or the knowledge, or the faith to know what it is that we need, neither do we always have the good sense as individuals, nor as a collective race, to take very good care of ourselves. That's what we have done to ourselves. That's what we've got to un-do! We need to remember the way we were created to be.

Sounds vague, I know, but throughout the weeks to come we'll talk more, and I'll explain a little bit further in depth what it is that I'm trying to say.

We'll be discussing healing the body, spirit and mind through natural means...Not just for people, but all of God's creatures. In some ways, the animals know better than we! Hahaha! (To be discussed at a later date!)
