Swine Flu---Buy Into The Fear Or Not

If you have had your TV on or read your newspaper this week, all of the headlines are busy predicting the possible pandemic of swine flu this year. Are you buying into the fear? I'm not. I ask each of you who is reading this to stop the fear and send Light out to the Universe.

I am not saying that you shouldn't be cautious with your health. I am saying don't let fear of getting the flu take over your every waking moment. You don't have to do that. Do what is necessary to take care of your health and that of your families. You should already be doing that. Eat healthier. Take your supplements, if you already do. If you get sick, stay home and take care of yourself. If you need to, like I do, get your body in better shape. Get the sleep that your body needs to operate. Drink more water and less sodas, tea and coffee.

Those of you who are reading this article, I am asking that you spend some time in prayer or meditation, whichever feels better to you, or do both. I am. Surround first yourself with a bubble of white light which strengthens your body and shields you from having your energy sucked out of you. It also helps your attitude which is always a plus for me. Use whatever color of Light that your inner voice suggests.

Next I want you to shine that Light on your neighborhood, your city, your state, and your country. Then I want you to send the Light totally around the world lighting up every being and every plant, every body of water that it comes in contact with. See the whole world surrounded by this bright, bright white Light.

Then ask for the help of your guardian angels and spirit guides to make you more aware of your thoughts, actions, and body. To keep your body healthy, you have to be aware of it. To keep your mind happy, you have to be aware of your thoughts. Be pure in thoughts, words and deeds.

Do whatever you methods you use to keep yourself grounded during this time of upheaval and challenges. I like to use the image of being a tree with branches going up into the Heavens and roots going down into the Earth with energy flowing in from the top of my head and up through the bottoms of my feet. Then whenever you think about it today, next week, next month, next year, send out Love and Light from your heart center into the world. See if we can make the world a better and safer place to be.

What are you doing to keep yourself and your family healthy so that you aren't succeptable to the flu or any other illness?

This week I have been on a raw fruits, raw vegetables, drinking only water in a Spring Cleanse. So far this week, I have lost 4 1/2 pounds. This is the fourth day of my cleanse. (Today is Wednesday. The post won't be posted until Sunday.) For the first time in my life, I have eaten nothing but raw fruits and veggies. I have never eaten so much fruit in my entire life as I have the past few days. This cleanse is to flush toxins out of my body and mostly what I am losing is water weight. I needed to do something because my weight was slowly moving upward and so was my blood pressure. I was back to having indigestion a lot. I already knew that eating more raw fruits and veggies would have the indigestion out the door in no time.

The only thing that I have cheated on is my morning coffee. I haven't been willing to let go of that first cup of coffee in the morning when I wake up. Guess what, while I have been on the clease, I have been making my morning coffee and pouring myself a full cup but when I get halfway through the coffee, I don't want anymore. I am leaving the goat's milk out of it except for the second morning of the cleanse. That cup of coffee tasted greasey to me so I am just having a half-cup of black coffee. I did not sit down and make a committment to stop my coffee. Allowing my taste buds to tell me what I like and don't like is how I became a vegetarian to begin with about 12 years ago. When the coffee no longer tastes good, I will stop. If I continue to like the taste and the way it makes me feel, I will continue to drink coffee.

Jay, you are welcome. I do enjoy your blog. I loved your birthday letter to your daughter. I am going to share it with my son whose 33rd birthday is coming up in May.

Greetings Patricia!

Thanks for posting this Swine Flu thing! I am certainly not buying into it. Not claiming any kind of flu "animal" on my body at all!

Thank you for the mention in this post about Just Be Real! Will also take a peak at Jay's blog. Blessings again to you dear one!

Just Be Real, You are welcome. There are so many conflicting reports. I believe we all need to be helping to heal the world right now with whatever we each can do.

Dear Patricia,

I love your idea of sending Light to this....

The fear mongering is not needed.

My hope is that it brings attention to preventable illness through proper germ control. We ALL can be responsible for our own hands.

15 seconds of hand washing... I heard that explained as singing Happy Birthday. So I am singing while washing and uplifting myself all at the same time. Hmmm maybe I should choose the name of a friend each time I do the birthday hand wash. ;)

Happy Birthday dear Patricia, Happy Birthday to you....

Lovies

Deb, thanks for the Happy Birthday song reminder. We must have watched the same Oprah Show. Have a glorious day. I just got home from a weekend in Texas at a Civil War Reenactment with my husband and son. Even though we got rained out for Sunday, it was an enjoyable weekend spent with family and friends.

Hi

The technique that you practice is 'Light Channeling'.

There is a place in earth where light channel is being practiced on every sunday under the direct guidance of saptha rishis who are with us in astral body, working hard towards global spiritual transformation 2012.

I'm sending this message thinking of Bright White Light 'The God' in mind.

May more people channel light. May the world fill with love and peace. May everyone enter into the New Age and become light bodies.

Anonymous, thank you for the name of this technique and the two websites. When I have more time, I will visit both sites. I have several friends who use this technique and taught it to me.
