Making Peace the Way We Live

FROM THE PEACE COMPANY

Dear Peace Friends,

Mother's Day is a time to say thank you to Mom and other special women and mentors in our lives. It's also a time to reflect on the challenges and sacrifices of women and mothers around the world. The Peace Company believes that every mother counts, and we're sharing a number of thoughtful ways to say thank you and show you care.

I. Gifts For Mom and Others
Please consider the following "special offerings" for Mother's Day, peace gifts for global healing found on the web site, http://www.thepeacecompany.com/ for additional ideas and options.

II. Take One Action at "Every Mother Counts"

• Did you know 1000 women die everyday due -- one every 90 seconds -- due to pregnancy related causes?
• Did you know most of these deaths could be prevented if women had access to affordable and timely medical services?
• If women and girls were educated and empowered to make decisions about their sexual and reproductive rights?
• Learn more about how you can help at http://www.everymothercounts.org/. (A Peace www.everymothercounts.org/Company Partners Project)

To every Mother and nurturer out there, we say "Thank You" and God Bless You for all you are and all you do.

Peace and Blessings

and The Peace Company Team

No painter's brush, nor poet's pen
In justice to her fame
Has ever reached half high enough
To write a mother's name.

Nurses ~ Now they have a Special Day in Ruidoso!

2010 has been proclaimed The International Year of the Nurse. And now it is official in our Village of Ruidoso, too!

Earlier this week at the Ruidoso Village Council meeting, Mayor Ray Alborn proclaimed May 12, 2010, Florence Nightingale Day. Nurses from around the world honor Florence Nightingale and her legacy to nursing by "relighting the lamp" and carrying the vision of nurses united in healing into the future. We join with the American Holistic Nurses Association and the nursing community at large and honor all Nurses in the practice of nursing.

Our own Barbara Mader was in attendance and accepted the proclamation on behalf of the American Nurses Association, the American Holistic Nurses Association and the local nursing community.

On behalf of the American Holistic Nurses Association, Barbara Mader, RN presented Jennifer Chadwick, RN the Florence Nightingale Commemorative Coin in recognition for her years of service to this community. Jennifer is well known for her dedication to the health and well being of Lincoln County. Serving as Chair and continuing on the Executive Committee,  her leadership made a very positive impact on the Lincoln County Health Council. Seeing a need for quality home health care and hospice Jennifer created Ruidoso Home Health and Hospice which has proved to be a valuable service to this community. Those who know Jennifer will agree that she carries many of the attributes of Florence Nightingale. Congratulations Jennifer.

What a Guy!!

I was pleased to read in the newsletter that Jim, the Tai Chi class and others expressed their gratitude for George plowing and shoveling snow. This allowed them to attend their classes.  I see and am aware of a lot of the things George does around the campus and yet I know that there is more that goes unnoticed even by me. He checks out the campus and grounds daily making sure that all is in order and repairing anything that needs his attention. This makes for a smooth functioning HMHC.  So, I want to publicly thank him for being here and supporting HMHC and her mission. When he does that he is also supporting me in my work of service for which I am most grateful.

And just for the record, he designed and built his own snow removal equipment that he has for his truck. What a Guy!

BioGenesis: a HMHC Colleague Experience

Boyd Sibley, Intuitive Healer and Sound Therapist, offers The Healer Method Master Certification program at HMHC. The HMHC Book Store  also carries his wonderful Sedona Sacred Oils (pure therapeutic essential oil blends) collection. Come and visit!

Boyd is the owner of HOPE Universal Recording Studio where he channels and records Soul Songs. Please, visit Sedona Soul Songs for further information.

It is customary for many HMHC Colleagues to receive services from each other. Boyd met with Barbara for a BioGenesis consultation last December.

Thank you Boyd, for sharing your experience:

" As the process of Bio-Genesis continued with Barbara using the healing pyramid, I felt my body getting lighter and expanding at the same time as if my aura had grown several inches in every direction. It felt good, it felt warm as colors of wonderful light filled me. I began to feel and hear within a musical sound as well. It was vibrated like surround sound or a spinning vortex of energy. It started in the lower frequencies and just as my aura began to feel lighter, so the music was felt higher in frequency. I was bathed in light and sound as my whole body and aura vibrated to a higher frequency.
Afterwards, I still felt lighter, refreshed and in a happy mood. I wasn't wiped out or drained of energy but rather contained more.
Thank you Barbara for using the energy of creation just as Genesis is the "book of beginnings" in the scripture, to bring more light and love into my being,
blessings"

Blessed by Brugh

 
 Just before Christmas, the 22nd to be exact, I took a friend to lunch and for some reason I was going on and on about my teacher Brugh Joy. I shared what he meant to me and the things he taught me. I studied with him back in the 80's and even brought him to El Paso for a seminar.
 
My first introduction was when my massage therapist, Maria Elena Martinez, took me with her one New Year's to a huge workshop in Asilomar, Ca. We sat on the floor up front with our feet almost in the strings of the harp. We did not want to miss a thing and we didn't either. There were hundreds of us and what an energy field that was; wow!
I liked the experience and attended again the next year then went on to a week long intensive at his retreat in Prescott, AZ.

 
It was at this intensive that I could see the energy coming out of my hands. I was so excited that I can
remember Brugh saying "Barbara you might become addicted to this energy work", and he was right. What a wonderful thing to have a passion about. Even now, so many years later I still feel his presence with me when I am working. 

Brugh was an exceptional teacher and touched so many lives. I am just grateful that the touched mine so profoundly. The fact that I was thinking of him and talking about him the day before he passed away
tells me that we are indeed still connected on some level. (He transitioned on Dec 23rd.) He truly blessed my life for which I am so very grateful.

“Biogenesis: A Blessing to be Experienced”

Barbara Mader, RN, CHTP, RM and Founder of HMHC is now offering BioGenesis consultations at HMHC.

For more information and to attend a BioGenesis Presentation, please click

An Invitation to Prosperity and Security

or call Barbara at 575-336-7777.

Kelly met Barbara for a BioGenesis consultation and following, would like to share her  experience. Kelly, thank you!

 

I met with Barbara to have a session with her new 'babies', her Biogenesis crystals.  I have to say, her whole center was ignited with a new frequency that seemed to open portals of light from dimensions filled with heavenly joy.  When we started the session, immediately I could feel our energies going from 20 mph to Mach 10.  I had to catch my breath.  I knew this was going to be a powerful and life-changing session.  As Barbara moved the first crystal over my body, I could feel my consciousness lift up and enter a peace-filled place of light..  I was aware of Barbara's movements and her profound sacredness as she followed the Divine's Guidance in every motion she made.  Meanwhile, I heard the voice of a beloved being that was here to help facilitate the session say to me, "You have shut down your receiving.  It is in your throat."  I understood that I was being given an opportunity to have the 'block' removed, so I claimed that 'yes, please remove any and all impediments to my receiving all of God's Will for me.'  Immediately, it felt as though a chunk of something was suctioned out of my throat chakra and light was all that was left. 
As I floated in a sea of love, light and sacredness, Barbara prayed and commanded that peace and love be mine.  (at least that's how I interpreted it.)  The whole session was filled with Grace and beauty and heaven.  After the session was done, I seemed to continue to float within the Light of God for awhile. 
Biogenesis is a blessing to be experienced. 
There are many blessings for each of us that the Divine wishes for us to receive, and this amazing session will help all of your dreams be realized."

with great love,

Kelly

International Year of the Nurse

I just joined Jean Watson and a million other nurses around the world to simultaneously connect into the compassionate energy of nursing. 2010 is the International Year of the Nurse and wherever we nurses were at noon today we took time out to honor nursing, ourselves and Florence Nightingale on this the anniversary of 100 years since her death.
I chose to light a candle, take my Florence Nightingale medallion and commemorative coins and walk the labyrinth, now that was a trick for it was under 5 inches of pure white snow. It was a gorgeous setting, white snow, clear blue sky and Grandfather sun bathing all in His glorious energy. 
What a way to start a brand new 2010!
Oh yes, I almost forgot, there were 3 snow men watching the whole thing. My granddaughters built them so they are so very special!
