Linda hung up her student hat as she transitioned into the wise woman role.  She teaches others life lessons and helping them on their journey.  She is delighted to finally be in her middle years.  After years of ‘finding herself’, she now knows who she is meant to be and what how she is mean to serve.  She is overjoyed to be living the life that was planned for her.

Below is a picture of some of the things she does which have alternative websites, accessible through Linda’s Links in the side bar.  This website is about Linda, her education and her personal goals.  Her work is found on other sites.

I know we love to smell good… but the fragrances are not natural anymore. They are chemicals and many of them are carcinogenic- yes cancer producing fragrances…. and even if they are not cancer producing are they chemicals that your body can eliminate? If not, there goes another fat cell to store the chemical away from your important life giving chemicals.

Just going to dye free/fragrance free laundry products cuts the chemical produced smells out of your clothes and anywhere those clothes go… including any place public like your child’s classroom where other students health are concerned. Also the dryer smell now carries that chemical out to your breathing air outside perhaps impacting your neighbors breathing spaces and often places where ever vented like flower gardens.

Remember your skin is absorbent that is why they use patches for medicines…. The skin will absorb what is on it… including the chemicals from the clothes, the shampoos, the conditioners, and so on…How many fragranced products do you use a day excluding your make-up ladies(which is a whole other story.) If it is more than three, even if you are washing it down the drain like shampoo, consider cutting the number in half down to the bare essentials or replace with fragrance free items.

Everything is a cycle… the chemicals in your garden are picked up by the animals about and also washed into the soil. These could be washed into the drinking water system eventually from the soil, not to mention them being directly put into the waste water system which eventually gets processed. Does the processing pick up these chemicals?

But we like to smell good… after washing the unnatural smells out of your clothes, which will take anywhere between 3 and 10 washings, try using some natural smells from the kitchen like three of my favorites, dried orange peels, vanilla or cloves put in an old sock as a scent bag. You get the added benefit of the cloves being a natural pesticide and the orange peels are a natural bug repellent.

The simple change out to fragrance free products will reduce the chemical load on your body free up your liver to fight your real allergies better. One last recommendation, try NAET to remove your allergies. This is a holistic approach to allergy elimination – no shots required. See NAET.com for additional information. There are other holistic options including EFT, QRA that can help with your allergies.

Still transitioning people to death is very hard for me, even thought I know that this is our ultimate path.  This kind woman will be deeply remembered.  In the spirit world, the spirit life continues and we were able to keep her session six hours after her physical body had died.  I was able to share a few things with her daughter.

Diet:

Especially good for those of you who don’t have enough energy to make it through the day or those trying to figure out how to eat for the big race!

Exercise:

Whether you are trying to run your first 5K race or you just got out of Physical Therapy and need help following your home program.  Linda  can provide you a workout program suited for your personal goals.  And can be there every step of the way as your enhance your health.

Ten Tools to Health

Top ten integrative things to try…

Integrative solutions not just for those with cancer… would help everyone’s health!

1) Improve your fuel:   Stop eating chicken and pork… science shows they cut your red blood cells significantly and they do not grow back for 21 days… You need the red blood cells to get oxygen to your body. The body works using the oxygen… Try Quantum Reflex Analysis to introduce raw food nutrition that resets/strengthens the biofield and provides the correct micronutrients to allow your body to heal.

2) Take all the electromagnetic influences out of the bedroom… Nothing electronic even alarm clocks within six feet of body… This also applies to your favorite chair that you use more than an hour a day…

3) Move the bed so your head is facing east… will most likely reduce the geomagnetic EMF that has been proven as a cause of cancer since World War II… If possible have a dowser check out the optimal placement for your bed/ easy chair. We can do this service as part of an environmental analysis.

4) Have Reiki treatments, this has been proven to have a positive effect on Cancer… I had one man whose PSA dropped in half after one week of remote treatments. He was in Florida. These services can be done directly or remotely.

5) Have an environmental analysis for your home… remove environmental threats… Top on the list is anything fragranced and anything antibacterial… we do evaluation for homes and businesses.

6) Check out oxygen therapy.  Scientists for years have been using oxygen in cancer research to stop the growth so study can be done…  Woodlands Research Center in Quakertown is one local resource.

7) Forgive everyone including yourself. This helps the immune system. We offer life coaching to help you learn forgiveness skills.

Try Energy Psychic Surgery – when the cancer is removed on an energy level, if can then influence the physical level. We do this sort of work in our advanced healings.

9) Try a Myofascial Release Intensive – one woman reduced her cancer after one week… We are fortunate to have the national MFR center in Paoli.  Our rates are less than half the price if cost is a factor… an intensive would be 2-3 sessions a day for a week or two… it has been shown to break up cancer for some…

10) Try Spiritual Releasement- one woman was discharged from the hospital with a miracle cure the day after a remote treatment over thousands of miles…We removed a spirit who actually had the cancer that was displaying in her body.

We also provide integrative body/mind medicine and life coaching for the whole family, including pets.

Blessings on your journey…

As a perpetual dieter I’ve learned a lot about food now I’m a certified healer and life coach and getting my certification in sports nutrition.

Society is weight biased
I know from first hand experience the frustration of

- Gaining weight on a weight watcher’s diet plan, then being blamed for cheating
(although I told them I couldn’t eat that much food at the start and needed something tailored to me…)

- Not losing weight when working out four hours a day and eating a 400 calorie diet for a year training for a triathlon

- The doctors telling me I’m eating too much and just need to eat less (than 400 calories?)

-Being told I had an eating disorder when I was following
the doctor’s advice on how to lose weight.

- Racing an Olympic size triathlon at 220 pounds and being told to leave the staging area for the racers.

- Being rejected on insurance because I wasn’t under 170 pounds, even though I was in perfect health and in triathlete condition.

- Being evaluated on weight when I complained of exhaustion and a doctor told me all I needed to do is lose a few pounds to feel better, when I had mononucleosis

Now science knows to use exercise for well being not to lose weight and
that dieting doesn’t work, but food does

Lose weight by eating right and managing stress!
Nourishing yourself in the right amounts at the right times during the day
can bring balance into your life.

You may need to eat more to lose weight. Together we can figure it what your body needs.

These are the titles of her works in progress.  Also Linda can speak to any of these items for groups, writing just takes a bit longer.

Reincarnation Examined – Available now for those interested in reading Linda’s Master’s thesis, may be re-written into a book format.

Got Cancer? – Linda’s top ten picks to investigate to complement allopathic treatments including environmental changes, dietary changes, holistic bodywork and spirit work.

Babe in Woods or Mud Coverings – Linda’s inspirational story of recovering from crippling Lyme disease by following God’s voice to hike the 140 mile horse shoe trail.  Details how this hike not only healed her physically but through her encounters with God and his messengers healed her spiritually.

Edison’s Child – A story and guide to help those who share Linda’s Environmental Illness struggles.   Provides Linda’s personal story of mercury poisoning, living in the wilderness and the solutions for body, mind and spirit that she found to help live with this terrible illness.

Cave Woman Street Smarts - This talks about the wealth of innate knowledge that each of us have been given since the caveman’s time.  It investigates how we as humans were designed to live and how that brought health to our ancestors.

Green Baby – Linda’s  nuerobiological and environmental interests are combined in steps parents can take to help raise a healthy happy child.  The first year of life is so fundamental in the development of the child.

Computer Safety – Talks to the environmental issues related to computer use as well as body ergonomics which can impact our health at all three levels of body, mind and spirit.

Sex with Aunt Linda – Written as information I would share with my nephews and nieces that aren’t already commonly known, like the spiritual aspect of sex and why birth control fails.  Also covered are what environmental impacts need to be watched if you are trying to get pregnant, how to increase your chances of pregnancy, what researchers say about coupling and how to make changes of marriage to work better and how to make your sex life more enjoyable and enriched.

World’s End – A story about Linda’s vision of the end of the world.

Healthy Breast – Linda’s Healthy Breast Class in written form.

Allergies 101 – Linda’s Allergies Workshop in written form.

Red Dirt Coverings – Linda’s Healing Lessons from 2004-2010 as she recovered from Mercury poisoning and learned to become a healer.

Diabetes Type II Destroyed – Linda’s doctoral thesis converted to book form.

Healing touch is a set of tools that are communicated to nurses and doctors which appears to be a bit of Reiki and Pranic Healing techniques in a procedural form.    This is only a subset of the work I do.

I was just looking at the information for Healing Touch… not too bad. There is a real movement to help western medicine to use some Spiritual Healing techniques from eastern medicine… The door is opening for doctors to become healers.

I was just thinking of creating an introductory course for allopathic practitioners to learn some basic techniques that can help them do their work… Healing Touch would be a portion of the work… but so would learning techniques which would help them to better diagnosis -Stats say that doctors only get it right 12% of the time… yes you read that right twelve percent! A few simple healing tools in their toolbox can up their percentage significantly.  Of course that is the opinion of a medical intuitive

Then the last part of candidacy school I was suppose to name the people group I had been called to… they wanted me to go to China and I left my heart there as if it was my second nation, but God wouldn’t give me peace about the people group.  After a week of prayer and fasting it was ‘to serve the world’… What do you do with that????

I surrendered and that is when God was really able to mold me.  He used an acute mercury poisoning in 2004 to put me on the track that He wanted.  Long story short is that I was designed to be a healer.

I even wanted to be a doctor in eighth grade.  I saved a kid’s life once while working at the day care center and realized he could have died…  I realized if I was a doctor some would die and I just couldn’t handle the fact that I would kill some of my patients.  Today I help people accept death in peace, but that is much different.

I think my near death experience was key at expanding my healing ability and seeing many things that are beyond normal human range.  And the fact that I had a personal relationship with God and much of the work is His answering prayers -  I ended up to be beyond my years in the ability to heal.   I’ve discovered most of the good healers have also had a near death experience- apparently there is change in brain chemistry and function… I think it ties us closer to heaven.  Most of us now love differently, more of the universal agape love instead of the Eros love.  And believe me once you experience heaven, you get a very different perspective of earthly matters.

I took a keen interest in the alternative medicine and really wanted to know how Jesus healed, believing it was one of those things passed down through the generations without written instruction manual.  So I investigated many methods going out to different people groups and learning some modern techniques and science…I am too scientifically minded to leave that out, I didn’t only want to know a method, but wanted to know the science behind it when able.  A lot of my healing friends will do the work and think it is all based on magic and miracles, but much of it is science based that the doctor’s haven’t accepted as standard yet.  I hope  in the  years to come we will meld the old ways in with the new ways as some of the science becomes apparent.  Right now most people think that the work as a healer is a faith healing or magic- some of it is only a gift from God, but much of it is science.

Eventually I came to realize I had what I was searching for, a combination of skills that worked and any new system I was learning was a combination of things I already learned (just a dance by a different name.)  Many true healers hold their cards close to their chest, not sharing information too easily until they know the heart of the learner is pure.  Once they open up and share the real stuff, you see that the systems are all based on the same basic observations about the human body and healing methods… even though these different indigenous groups know nothing about each other, and even some groups even warring with each other.

There really is nothing new under the sun…  just different versions for people.  Basically when healing a person, I tune into what God is telling me to do- that is the key to the work for me.  Keeping an open heart with child like faith and listening and willingness to be a vessel for His work.
