Play A Little With Recycling

Green, Think Green! The slogan is all over the place, and rightly so. Our times and our planet call for conscious consumerism and active recycling. All can include a little fun with gadgets.

Wind turbines near Aalborg, Denmark

A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, such as a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power unit (WPU), wind energy converter (WEC), or aerogenerator.

New Health Benefit Evidence: Practice T'ai Chi!

Jim Blackburn, C.R., T'ai Chi Chuan Instructor at HMHC and Co-Owner of Village Wellness, writes to his students:

"The West is recognizing the health benefits and possible medical cost savings of Tai Chi / Qigong with greater frequency. Isn't it a good feeling knowing you are out in front of this curve... not only in thought, but in practice."

Something revolutionary happened. Harvard Medical School's official publication gave Tai Chi it's most powerful affirmation as part of modern healthcare. Harvard wrote:
" Tai chi is often described as "meditation in motion," but it might well be called "medication in motion."

Harvard goes on to write,
"There is growing evidence that this mind-body practice ... has value in treating or preventing many health problems. And you can get started even if you aren't in top shape or the best of health."

-- Harvard Medical School's Harvard Health Publication,
May, 2009

Jim

Tony, a T'ai Chi Student, sent Better Balance With T'ai Chi, an article which describes how practicing T'ai Chi relieves many ailments such as stroke, fibromyalgia, pain management, blood pressure, etc.

Long time T'ai Chi Instructors and Students are happy to hear how T'ai Chi is now integrated in Western medicine. Not only that, though. A regular practice keeps not only the body fit, not only helps to prevent illnesses, but invites the mind and the soul to join the body to reach a highest level of energy and consciousness.

Spiders to Know About

I don't know about you. Me,I have been gardening heavily for several months now. To basic house chores, I have attended, somewhat. Cleaning chores? Even less. Nowadays, my interior decorating definitively includes spidery corners. Sometimes going from one room to another, I stop dead in my track, simply because I wrapped my head in silk threads. My bathroom has been especially welcoming Daddy Long-Legs. Just seems to me, spiders are everywhere this season. I'm not being accusatory towards them. I am not afraid of them and don't really mind them that much. I rather find Daddy Long-Legs to be attractive in their appearance and because they send good omen about my relationships, I like them. Yet at the same time, when I see a spider, out of habit I mumble my native nursery rhyme:

 Araignee du soir, espoir; araignee du matin, chagrin.*

 So I pick up all those spiders who show up at night and lovingly carry them outside. Those that I meet in the morning, whack!... sorry guys. I almost always immediately regret my morning gestures and swear I will save a dozen a time; next morning. But this season, mornings have just been killers. So I decided to study and share with you the chart below. The chart was sent by Cindy Wilson, a Friend and Reader of HMHC. 

Thank you Cindy for sharing and saving lives!

* Spider in the morning,hope; spider in the evening, grieving.

Wisdom of Aged: A Poem by Linda Grau Powell

(Parrot Flower: Impatiens Psittacina)

 Wisdom of Aged

One is wiser

Sometimes

As rivers flow

As suns rise

As life progresses

Moving interminably

Toward transition

And ending

Or beginning

Depending

On faith

One is wiser

As problems present

As lessons learned

As journey ends

Tasting surprises

Both bitter and sweet

Breathing decay

Of depression or anger

Inhaling fragrance

Of baby or shower

Emotions recalled

Stored in cells

Body clenched

Unearthing questions

Body quenched

Releasing answers

Building surrender

Leaning to the light

River of life spanned

By gray hairs and tears

Girders of understanding

Bridge to heaven

Inside becomes out

Crossing my soul

To infinity

Can you help?

Boyd and Kelly of

The Ultimate Gift Foundation and 7 Rays ranch project

are calling on friends of HMHC to help them find new lodgings. Please take a minute to read Boyd's letter below.

 Thank you for contacting Boyd or Kelly by phone (number appears at the end of the letter below) if you have a home that needs care or if you know of someone who does.

 

"Dear Friends in Ruidoso and Alto,

Kelly and I and Squeeky Boy will complete our residence contract, around June 15th, at the Truitt residence in Copper Canyon.

It has been a marvelous 7 months and we are very appreciative for this opportunity.

We are once again open to the services of house sitting/care taking for someone's home and property in exchange for rent or for a small donation of rent on our part.

This allows us to spend our own time and resources on the reason we are here, to build the Ultimate Gift Foundation and 7 Rays Ranch project from the ground up.

We have had a wonderful experience in Ruidoso and certainly wish to continue our project here.

I am writing to you for you prayers and for your help if you know of anyone who has a vacant home or in need of our special services in exchange for rent.

During the past five years we have provided these services for several home both in Arizona and for two in Ruidoso, the most current here in beautiful Copper Canyon.

Our moving date is coming soon so if you can help or forward this request to a friend we would be most appreciative.

Besides doing general maintenance and providing security for the home, we now have some training with horses.

We can do basic horse caring skilles some as feeding, cleaning and mucking stalls, AG lime, grooming and cleaning hooves. We are not experts yet but are training at Ruidoso Equine three days a week for the past 7 weeks.

So friends, thanks for your help and please don't hesitate to call or "reply' back to us.

We have lots of references for anyone who asks.

Blessings

Boyd, Kelly and Squeeky Boy"

What is Manoyoga?

Manoyoga is a technique that combines breath, sound, meditation, and deep relaxation.

Who can do Manoyoga?

Anyone can practice Manoyoga.  You do not need physical conditioning.  Manoyoga does not interfere with personal beliefs.

Why should I do Manoyoga?

Manoyoga restores the body and focuses the mind. It is a way to handle stress. It has documented health benefits, including cardiac disease, cancer, memory retention, and diabetes. 

Subbuji teaches Manoyoga because it healed him after he nearly died of stress and cardiac problems.  It can help you, too.

Mike Mauldin, Ph.D. is a Colleague at HMHC and offers Mindfulness Based Psychotherapy. Please click HMHC Colleagues to read more about Mike and his practice.

 Upon Barbara's request, he shares this below writing:

"Dear Ones,

On my walk this morning, I stopped in the middle of a stand of ponderosa pines to listen to the beautiful clicking sounds coming from the trees. I was surrounded by a sea of popping and clicking; in rhythm at times then going into syncopation. As I passed by an oak, the clicking led me to look upon a small locust, the source of the beat. I watched as its body convulsed into a vibrating pop. Standing there surrounded in loving vibration of thousands of locusts, singing in rhythm to universal forces, distant yet connected and intimate, I fell into nature’s vibration, became her breath. My mind lingered on many thoughts, ideas and emotions but gently and always, I was called back to the moment by the living rhythm of the locust clan, the gentle mountain breeze against my skin, the warmth of the sun and the vast blue sky, held high it seemed by the branches of the towering pines rooted to the earth.

Often in our culture we think of dying to meet our Creator, but this morning in the beautiful mountain air and morning sun, standing in nature’s cathedral and bathing in the vibration of a locust symphony, I met the Creation again and I wished you were there to taste its sweetness.

May you too experience all of Creation through the grace of your senses and the beauty of the earth.how can the heart in love ever stop opening –Rumi

Wilderness Awareness Workshop: a Healing Tool

Wilderness workshops have sprouted for some time now and often are related to teen reformation camps. Wilderness workshops however benefit a much larger array of life events: big physical traumas like car, work accidents or assaults, or psychological traumas like verbal, sexual, substance abuse. There are traumas often not medically classified as “trauma” but rather categorized as “part of life.“ Nonetheless, these indistinguishable events such as loss of loved ones, homes, jobs and so forth, impact life just as deeply.

A Wilderness workshop is as healing tool. When deepening the connection with the environment, one deepens the connection with oneself, with the healer inside.

High Mesa Healing Center

proudly is presenting a Wilderness Awareness workshop to the community, to bring the opportunity to learn skills which deepen the connection with Nature and will become tools to waken and assert the Healer inside.

Robert Bawol

Founder of Primal Qi Synergy  and workshop Instructor, teaches Ancient Skills which

“ greatly empower energetic perception, safety, acute observation, Oneness, and smooth movement in any environment, whether wilderness or city jungle. Escalating international tension and domestic security concerns make these skills increasingly important for daily life, especially for travelers.”

Barbara Mader

RN, CHTP and Founder of High Mesa Healing Center writes:

 “I recommend this workshop for many reasons. It is so in alignment with the mission of HMHC that I encourage others to participate. Not only will we benefit individually from the experience, it will also be of great value to our planet and the universe at large when we do our work that connects us to our environment. I feel that it will allow us to tap into our own inner wisdom and knowing through the inspiration of Nature. It sounds like mining for gold as we go within to find our own answers. And what better place to do it than in this sacred mountain paradise. “

 

The workshop is this coming Saturday, May 23, from 9am to 6:00pm, at HMHC Outdoors.

To reserve your space, call 575-336-7777 or email HMHC.

Cost of workshop is $110; spaces are limited to 12; some spaces still available!

Carpe Diem! A Wilderness Awareness Workshop at HMHC

                                        

HMHCis most proud and excited to host a remarkable workshop on May 23, 2009, 9:00am till 6:00pm:

                                     Wilderness Awareness Workshop

"This cutting-edge awareness training designed for challenging times, writes Robert Bawol, M.A. and Instructor, has been built upon decades of real-world experience and continual refinement out in the field in deep wilderness and intense international arenas. Even highly experienced outdoors people and martial artists have been quite impressed at how much they have learned in as little as one day of awareness training. "

Robert Bawol, MA, Monterey Institute of International Studies; MMQ, International Institute of Medical Qigong, is the owner of Primal Qi Synergy.™ He explores diverse natural, cultural and energetic realms, including in Alaska, Uzbekistan, Mexico and Russia. Robert synergistically practices and teaches awareness, wilderness, herbal and qigong/energetic skills based on harmony and Fusion with the Universe.

The Awareness Workshop covers some of the following topics:

• Ancient Navigation Methods including Energetics

          • Danger Areas and Safety

• Energetic Sensitivity from Qi Gong and Systema

          • Basic Tracking Concepts

• Pulsation/Vibration Analysis

           • Vision Empowerment

• Environmental Yin, Yang and Qi Flow

           • Stealth

• Purification and Empowerment of Intuition

           • Birds as Awareness Aids

• Extensive Blindfolded Exercises

           • Animal and Human Movement Patterns

• Knowledge from a Distance

           • Instant Meditation and Brain Pattern Quick Shifts

• Critical Distance

“All over the world, adds Robert, Ancient Masters of these very powerful skills retained or recaptured the child-like aspects of joyful enthusiasm, energetic sensitivity, deep curiosity and intuition, the ability to silently observe and listen without premature analysis, a capacity to flex and flow with the vagaries of life, and an open mindedness instead of forcing rigid reality views upon situations. Thus the name Laughing Waters: A mindset of flowing like water with Nature, experiencing increased awareness and great joy while pushing your limits in exploration of this awesome Universe.

Awareness Workshops teach life-altering, highly practical ancient skills. These skills greatly empower energetic perception, safety, acute observation, Oneness, and smooth movement in any environment, whether wilderness or city jungle. Awareness training can also boost artistic creativity, and the ability to more fully live in the Now and make the most of it. In summary, Awareness training will have a positive impact on just about every aspect of your life!”

                                                        -:-:-:-    

This workshop is exceptional for its expertise, its content and presentation. This workshop is one of those that come around every so often, and when it is coming around to the area, carpe diem! or seize the day, the opportunity. A tool for our shifting times!

World Labyrinth Day: May 2, 2009

World Labyrinth Day

by Michele Caskey, April 7,2009

The Labyrinth Society has declared the first Saturday in May as World Labyrinth Day a global day of celebration of the labyrinth with an invitation to walk a labyrinth at 1PM around the world, in your local time zone. The first annual World Labyrinth Day will be celebrated on May 2^nd, 2009. World Labyrinth Day has been established as a day for bringing people from all over the planet together in celebration of the labyrinth as a symbol, a tool, a passion, or a practice. World Labyrinth Day is a vehicle for informing and educating the public, hosting walks, building permanent and temporary labyrinths, making labyrinth-related art and more.

The Labyrinth Society (TLS) is one of the foremost groups responsible for promoting the current international labyrinth movement. Founded in Nov. 1998, in St. Louis, MO, with the intent to support all who create, maintain, and enjoy labyrinths; and to serve the global community by providing education, networking possibilities, and opportunities to experience labyrinths. Since its inception, more than 1500 people have joined TLS. One of The Labyrinth Society’s greatest contributions has been establishing The World Wide Labyrinth Locator, available on the website www.labyrinthsociety.org or directly at www.labyrinthlocator.com

A labyrinth is a single path or unicursal tool for personal, psychological and spiritual transformation. Labyrinths are thought to enhance right brain activity. The American Cancer Society states that labyrinths "may be helpful as a complementary method to decrease stress and create a state of relaxation."

“Research studies conducted in a variety of settings has consistently shown that walking a labyrinth reduces stress. In fact, over the past few years, this has been the most commonly-researched topic related to the so-called ‘labyrinth effect’.”

John W. Rhodes, Ph.D. Chair, Research Committee, The Labyrinth Society

“The labyrinth seems to find us, we are led to it and it leads us to places and people we would not otherwise discover. Walking a labyrinth is a calming, right-brain activity. It’s intuitive and creative.”

Lisa Gidlow-Moriarty, President, The Labyrinth Society.

 

 WORLD LABYRINTH DAY IN LINCOLN COUNTY, NEW MEXICO

 

World Labyrinth Day will be celebrated in Lincoln County, New Mexico with three labyrinths open to the public.

At 1pm local time on Saturday 2nd May 2009 we will “Walk as One at 1” in the labyrinths at: The Capitan Ponderosa in Capitan, Kindred Spirits Sanctuary in Nogal and High Mesa Healing Center in Alto. We will promptly begin walking the labyrinth at 1:00 with the rest of the people in our time zone. All three labyrinths will be open from noon-dusk in celebration of World Labyrinth Day and participants are encouraged to walk all three labyrinths throughout the afternoon. Admission is free or a donation towards upkeep.

Kindred Spirits Sanctuary will have prayer ties available for those of all religious backgrounds interested in participating in this ancient ceremony. By making cloth bundles that contain your desires it is believed they are transmuted into prayer. Further explanation and instructions will be available. Directions to Kindred Spirits Sanctuary:

www.kindredspiritssanctuary.com  or 354-0602.

 At The Capitan Ponderosa packets of glitter dust will be available all afternoon for those who would like to infuse the glitter dust with their sentiments of gratitude before setting itfree on the wind or arranging in piles around the labyrinth which the wind will later scatter. Directions to The Capitan Ponderosa:

www.capitanponderosa.com or 354-1465.

At the High Mesa Healing Center, participants will find a Prayer for the Pocket at the center of the labyrinth as a reminder of the peace, prayer, or intent they held while walking the path. Directions to High Mesa Healing Center: www.highmesahealing.com or 575-336-7777.

Digital images of all three Lincoln County Labyrinths are available upon request by contacting Michele Caskey at michele@capitanponderosa.com or 575-937-3663.

Warming a Grand-Mother's Heart

We are fast approaching the 40th anniversary of the original Earth Day.

 I invite you to think creatively about how you might spend this significant day. Forty years ago I spent it with my four children who ranged in age from 15 to 3 yrs old. We planned different activities for each of them. For some there were games, puzzles, coloring books. The older ones were active in the recycling process and the trash pit up with some friendly contests to see who could pick up the most. Those kids are now grown with children of their own and it warms my heart to see that some of those habits and ideas are still with them, like carrying their cloth bags to the store. They somehow continue to reduce, reuse and recycle. And the best part is that they are passing this on to their children. Now that certainly warms this grandmother’s heart.

 Getting the children involved is an important key to making changes that will assist in the healing of our Mother Earth. Yes, we can make a difference and we are doing just that with our thoughts, words and actions.

Barbara Mader,  April 14, 2009

 

The Obama government has mentioned environmental and green awareness. Visit Earth Day - US to find tips on how to spend and extend Earth Day practices, from home to work, and additional activities to inspire kids to practice.

Honest Abe: A Murmur from Barbara

President Lincoln has consistently polled as one of the three greatest U.S. presidents along with George Washington and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Statements by President Obama indicate that there is renewed interest and appreciation for President Lincoln.

It was with interest that I came across this quotation from President Lincoln:

" The past is the cause of the present and the present will be the cause of the future."

If and when we pay attention to this quotation we would not be in the mess we are presently experiencing. We can use another "Honest Abe" right now.

The Native Americans might put it this way what we do now will affect people for 7 generations.* What kind of legacy do we want to leave to those who come after us?

That makes our present moment decisions very important.

Barbara Mader, 20-06-2009

 

*   "In our every deliberation we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." From the Great Law of the Iroquois Confederacy

Playing a Little with the Brain

Cindy W., friend of HMHC, sends cool stuff. See below what she sent us recently for fun and to captivate... Thank you Cindy!   The Brain This is quite amazing. . .     If you see this lady turning in clockwise you are using your right brain. If you see it the other way, you are using left brain. Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one way. See if you can make her go one way and then the other by shifting the brain's current.   BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN.  Experimentation has shown that the two different sides, or hemispheres, of the brain are responsible for different manners of thinking. The following table illustrates the differences between left-brain and right-brain thinking: Left Brain                 Right Brain     Logical                      Random    Sequential                 Intuitive    Rational                    Holistic    Analytical                  Synthesizing    Objective                  Subjective    Looks at parts            Looks at wholes  Most individuals have a distinct preference for one of                    these styles of thinking. Some, however, are more whole-brained and equally adept at both modes. In general, schools tend to favour  left-brain modes of thinking, while downplaying the right-brain activities. Left-brain scholastic subjects focus on logical thinking, analysis, and accuracy. Right-brained subjects, on the other hand, focus on aesthetics, feeling, and creativity. If you look away, she may switch from one direction to the other.   Posted by NWH

It is one of the simplest, most effective ways for you to put the laws of manifestation to work in your life. You only need to do three things in order to practice the Intention Process..." (from The Intention Process )

Barbara's Call to Listen

An invitation from Barbara:

" I've signed this petition myself, for if Europe adopts greater energy efficiency standards, the move could spill over in our direction -a plus for Earth and for us all.  Would you listen to 'Coldy' and consider adding your name? I've had experience with Avaaz.org and am confident they're legit."

Thank you. Barbara
