Hmm..Dysautonomia..

I guess this post is a long time coming. About a year ago I was diagnosed with an illness called dysautonomia. I had the tilt table test which I failed. Then I had the qsart which I also failed. I had a great doctor who diagnosed me. He was very friendly. I knew what he was going to say when he said my autonomic nervous system wasn't functioning right. I said dysautonomia. He said dysautonomia. I read about it and I still don't understand every thing about it that I would like to know. But the words were deeply satisfying and crushing at the same time. I finally had a name for the hell I had been going through but, it also meant a new set of circumstances..again.

He also told me they needed to do a skin biopsy. Which I was like what?  They told me it was to test my nerves in my skin. So got the paperwork to schedule that. They scheduled it rather quick.

At the time I had been excited about going to school for licensed medical massage. My doctors nurse told me I may want to hold off on the decision and just stick to what I am doing now. I was sort of puzzled and put off by that comment. But I went ahead started getting the paperwork together for school.

The day I had my biopsy I wanted to throw up. Nothing new there. I am chronically nauseated. No seriously chronically. Figured all would be fine and I can start school in September.

Well it wasn't. I received a phone call and they told me I had something called small fibre neuropathy. I told the nurse ok. What do I need to do. She had me come in. Met with a new doctor..my one I had just met months before had retired. This guy was telling me about the dysautonomia and the neuropathy. After he was done talking to me the nurse came back in. She asked how I was doing after all that. I told her fine. I don't understand much of it. Except I am broken really broken. My main organs don't care to function like a normal human being. But I have never liked normal. At least I now knew why nothing worked right. 2 heart ablations, dizzy all the time in the hospital all the time for dehydration. Even though I stay hydrated. Reality kicked in.

I told her I just have to figure out how I can balance this and school. I told her starting in the fall was going to work well for me cause my dysautonomia causes me to almost die every summer. She explained to me nicely this time that due to both my dysautonomia and especially the neuropathy that they weren't going to let me. Needless to say I was crushed but I figured I would go home call the school and see what they said.  I thanked her for the advice and I told her I have a lot of reading to do to find out how to conquer this illness and left.

Crushed Deeply Crushed

Got home and I called the school to tell them what the nurse has said. I was still so excited about starting school. It went with my reiki healing etc. I was saddened, crushed, destroyed, heart broken..to say the least. I got off the phone and cried. I am not one for depression cause it really has no place in my life. Being depressed isn't going to fix anything. In my world anyway. If I can't control it then there is no reason to even be depressed about it. But my dreams were destroyed in one day over one diagnosis.

Yes my dysautonomia is a result of my carbon monoxide poisoning.  I have accepted that I have it. Have I accepted that I have to live with it yet?  No I think that is a big challenge for me. To live sick. I live in and out of the er so much I don't even want to go anymore.

Constant nausea, constant dizziness, full face migraines, skin itchy or burning, being allergic to everything under the sun...including the sun itself. I don't know how to just be sick. I have days when I am stuck in my bed. I get so mad at myself that I am not getting anything done. I have been working around that these days.

I started Iv saline therapy once a week because no matter what my body doesnt seem to retain salt or stay hydrated. With dysautonomia you need to live on salt. Try finding things to eat with the amout of salt we need now days. I got so dizzy one time I opened up one of those fast food packs of salt and downed the sucker.

I also started a new medicine which made my potassium low so I was just in the hospital Saturday night. They just need to give me my own room already

I have many doctors, many tests and many appointments. It is never ending. Being chronically ill is a nightmare to say the least. It is just how you go about it that matters. It isn't easy people look at you and say well you look great are you feeling better..sometimes it is better to lie and say yes. I think it is because I don't really want to face the full reality of the situation. I have been facing some of it. But all I don't know. My goal is to keep on going on the good days and the bad.

While I try not to let my illness get in the way of real life at times it has. I have missed out on things, had to cancel plans etc...special things. They will not allow me to drive. So counting on everyone drives me mad sometimes. One day full reality may set in and I will find a nice corner to go cry in for a few days until I can fully deal with what I have been given. My health is a daily battle. When I think it is better it goes downhill or I end up in the hospital. I think I am fooling myself that one day I will beat this, sadly deep down I know I won't. There is no cure for dysautonomia at the moment. Its range of what it does to our bodies are endless. I ask don't take pity on those who are chronically ill..instead take in that we have a special kind of strength that keeps us going through all we struggle with. Peace and Healing

Angelic Wisdom Message Reading Week of 5-20-2013 – 5-27-2013

Angelic Wisdom Message Reading Week of 5-20-2013 – 5-27-2013

Monday 5-20-2013 - Micah-Time

The angel of time and plans can help you with acquiring patience when it feels like things aren’t moving as fast as you would like them to. Everything happens in its right time and sometimes things cannot be rushed. You can also call upon this angel to help you with your Divine Plan and show you what moves to be made next.

Time is what we use to measure cycles. The cycles of the sun, the moon, the Earth. Cycles of progress, cycles of age and cycles of change.

We are constantly in the middle of shifting cycles. Daylight, summer, winter, childhood, parenthood, ideas turning to manifestations. There is a constant transition and constant movement forward and there is always enormous gift and every moment.

In order for any successful shift to occur, we must go through the entire cycle properly.

Often times may find ourselves wishing, wanting or wasting away our time, being stuck in the past or the future, instead of being fully aware and present in this moment.

In every single moment, there exists every single possibility in existence. If we are aware that we truly understand that every moment offers endless possibilities and incredible potential and opportunity for growth and movement, then we can receive the gift that the present moment offers.

Every decision, every action, has a consequence. Our lives are made of many small and seemingly insignificant decisions. Decisions that include how we choose to interpret and react to the world around us. If we are aware and present each moment, we have the potential and empower decision to take this where you want to go in our lives.

If you find yourself wishing your time away, believing that everything we better when “blank” happens, is absolutely time to snap out of it.

Nothing will ever happen keep your head in the future and the present. Tomorrow never comes. All you will ever have now. You can't do it now, you will never do it.

There'll be no hand coming out the sky to make all your dreams come true. You must at that to the present and make your own dreams come true, right now!!!!

Only then will you find yourself exactly where you need to be.

If you have found your head stuck in the past is also time to snap out. Until you put your head on straight you have no idea what kind of existence you are living, let alone what opportunities you may be missing.

Life is made up cycles; the wheel must continue is rotations forward. You can go with it or be crushed by it. That's your choice.

Maybe you are currently in the middle of the cycle that requires a period of waiting, processing and patient. Allow yourself to surrender to this process, knowing that every stage of each phase is necessary in order to get to the next point. Try enjoying the process and surrendering all the thoughts about possible outcomes.

It is time to keep your awareness in the present.

Tuesday 5-21-2013 - Archangel Jeremiel-Clarity

Archangel Jeremiel means “Mercy of God” she is the angel of clarity. With the ability to help you gain perspective and review your life experiences and patterns, Jeremiel can help you awaken or resurrect lost parts of yourself.

Clarity is the state attained when the mind becomes still. When our fears, assumptions, expectations and projections stayed long enough for the fog to clear from our eyes, our ability to see returns. When we let go of coddling the inner voices of the ego and emotions fog of our perceptions and take it out of the present moment, we cannot be free to see the bigger picture.

To experience your clarity we must still the chatter of the mind, let go of staying stuck in the fog the motion and step away from ourselves long enough to see ourselves and our lives from a higher perspective.

When we feel clear, we are able to see ourselves and our lives clearly. We understand with clarity what is occurring for us and why, and we know what action to take to best honor our personal truth.

Oftentimes, to achieve this state we must clear with the fog and medicine our lives-from cleaning and clearing our homes, to cut any negative ties to clearing away replacing negative self- talk. We have to engage in a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual clean out. It will always give us the space necessary to find clarity.

Now it is essential to clear way what has been keeping you in the fog and find a space necessary for you to return to your center. This may mean cleaning your house, letting go of grief or anger or demanding a space for yourself in your life.

Clarity is coming to you now if you're willing to step up and embrace it.

Another form of clarity is a chakra balancing. A chakra is a point within the body's energy system. Another way to define chakras is to call them points in space and time where our physical bodies meet with metaphysical energies. When the chakras are open, aligned, and balanced we are at our absolute optimal levels of health. But when one or more of our chakras become closed, unbalanced, or out of alignment we can suffer from great discomfort and even a wide variety of health problems. Chakra treatments have also been known to heal or relieve serious issues even when traditional medicine has failed to do so.

Wednesday 5-22-2013 - Anael-Sexuality

Sexuality is the physical expression of our soul’s essence. It is the part of us that connects to the physical world. Sexual energy connects us to our bodies and inspires us to express ourselves thought use of our bodies, though clothes, make-up, body art and dance. It is though our sexuality that we reveal the deeper side of our nature. This is revealed in the particular way we choose to decorate ourselves and move in our bodies.

Our sexual energy brings us to life. It puts a sparkle in our eyes, a kick in our step and a sway in our hips.

It is through our senses that we develop “sensitivity” on all levels. Though touch, sight, sound, smell and taste we awaken to the richness of life. It is though pleasure that we celebrate life and though ecstasy that we experience oneness with divinity and the nature of the divine.

This may be a time for you to begin exploring and becoming sensitive to your physical self. Have you been honoring your body and sexuality as sacred? Does your physical being, reflect and express your spiritual being? Do you allow yourself to feel sensitive and awake inside your body? Do you feel free to express yourself physically and sexually?

This is a time for reflecting on these questions and bringing balance to this area of your life. If you have a relationship that needs healing in this area or you wanting to bring in a new partner, you must first heal and balance these things within yourself. Others will only ever reflect the true and often hidden feelings you have about yourself.

Therefore, this is the time to love yourself, explore your sensuality, become sensitive, honor your body as scared and enjoy your sexuality.

Thursday 5-23-2013 - Archangel Jophiel-Illumination

Archangel Jophiel means “Beauty of God” She is the Angel of illumination. She appears to bring light where there is darkness and is a shining light of hope at the end of a seemingly endless night.

Illumination occurs when light fills a space where there was once darkness. The light of consciousness spreads, allowing us to see into the space that was once darkness and mystery of the unknown.

Illumination often occurs when least expect it. When we are lost in the dark and forgotten what the light and it looks like, up comes the sun in all its glory, lighting our way and filling us with new insight and inspiration.

When we are in darkness we often lose sight of the bigger picture.  We can easily forget everything comes in phases.  Without the darkness of introspection and the unknown changes cannot occur.  The phases we experience are extremely important to growth and success in our lives.

The sun is rising for you now, illuminating all the dark corners of your life and consciousness. This is a time of rebirth, renewed life and renewed clarity and inspiration. Within the light of the sun, every color exists, ready to bring color into our world.

There is unlimited potential all around you right now. You have the power to create anything you want for yourself and your life. All color is available to you now. 

Pay close attention to awakenings, realizations, ideas, answers and inspirations.  All the answers you are looking for are revealing themselves to right now.

Friday 5-23-2013 -  Sachiel - Prosperity

Sachiel is the angel of money, wealth and prosperity. He rules over the day Thursday, and is one of the angels of the planet Jupiter. (The planet of luck and good fortune). 

The can be called to help bring wealth and abundance into your life. 

Money is energy. Pure energy. It is a piece of paper that represents our time, work and energy and it represents the potential of living. It takes care of our basic survival such as food and shelter as well as offering the means to create what we want in our life. The ability to travel, have better work options or be pampered. It gives us the means to live life the way we want to. 

Money will not hold or cuddle you, it won't give birth to your children, TV spiritual awareness or have a conversation with you but it will pay for the couch you cuddle on, pay for your child's clothes and nappies, by books that inspire spiritual awareness and pay for the coffee you converse over. While money doesn't bring you love or happiness, it does provide you with the means to nurture love and happiness in your life. 

Money is also the energetic equivalent of your time and energy. When you work, you received money in exchange for your time, energy and talent. Every dollar you spent is worth a certain amount of your time and energy. When you overspend or stop noticing where your money is going, you are essentially not valuing yourself or your time and leaking your money, thereby draining yourself of both energy and resources. 

It's essential right now to notice your feelings, beliefs and behaviors regarding money. It is time to truly love, honor and respect your money and in turn it will want to be with you and work for you. If you take the time and the effort to truly look after this area of your life that gives you so much, you will find that the rewards can be infinite. If you think of money as a friend that you are happy to make the time and effort for, money will be your friend in return. 

However, you ignore, roadway, or think lowly of a friend you cannot possibly expect a good relationship to develop. Likewise you fear losing, playing to in this trust your friend, you are likely to scare your friend way. It is time to develop healthy, loving relationship with money. 

Abundance comes from within, not without. You have the power to create accumulate wealth and prosperity now. 

Saturday 5-25-2013 - Archangel Azrael - Completion

Known as the Angel of Death, (in Islamic and Christian faiths), her primary role is to help souls crossover and to supply comfort to the grieving. She is the Angel who accompanies souls to heavens after that passed on.  

You can call upon her to help you through the grieving process and help you come to terms with and accept the natural cycle of life and death.  

Grief is a natural emotion during certain death cycles that involve both loss and the experience of something dear to you having come to an end. Often through grief, we honor what is lost in our feelings concerning that loss. If you are experiencing any grief at this time, it is important that you honor, respect and express this natural part of the human cycle.  

You must remember though, that the grief you feel is for yourself. If you have lost loved one, they had already moved on to the next stage of their cycle. They are where they are meant to be.  

If stage in your life has completed itself, this too has been necessary in order for you to move forward within your life and grow.  

New opportunity is present for you now and while it doesn't replace where you have been, it is essential for your growth to begin a new phase.  

Therefore, while is important that you feel and express what you are feeling at this time, you must always remember the bigger picture.  

You just cannot allow yourself to become stuck on the wheel of grief. Acceptance is your next part of this cycle to reach a place where you honor your sadness but also understand the bigger picture and become willing to move forward into your next phase of life.  

Sunday 5-26-2013 - Ramaela-Joy

Joy is the expression of the heart at its highest vibration. The ability to stop and experience the beauty and perfection of life, without focus on outcomes, to be able to celebrate the beauty and grace of the goddess. That is what we experience will be allowed joy into our hearts.

Joy is the freedom of the heart, the inner child, the wild self, the true self. When we liberate ourselves from the heaviness of the mind, we free our hearts and give ourselves permission to be an express ourselves without the usual set of rules and limitations. These moments are food and nectar for the soul.

Joy connected to her true self the inner fire alive. Too much of this fire can burn out but not enough can leave us an empty vessel. Joy and the expression of joy is vital to our body, mind and soul.

Now is the time for laughter, play and the exploration of all things that bring you joy. It may be a time for being irreverent and carefree, a time to bring balance serious aspects of the self.

In many cultures of the world, there exists a trickster archetype, who trips people up when things are getting too serious or when they are taking themselves too seriously.

This is a time for you to trip yourself up in order to get back to earth. It is essential now let go of the heaviness that is around you, and have fun, play dance with life and find the lightness within the heart, mind and soul.

Find out what lights the flame of joy within your heart and give yourself the freedom to experience beautiful soul enriching feeling in your life right now.

Monday 5-27-2013 - Archangel Sandalphon - Prayer

Sandalphon, which means “brother”.  Is the angel in charge of delivering and answering prayers. Once a mortal man, Sandalphon was the prophet Elijah and is the twin brother of the Archangel Metatron.  

Known as one of the tallest angels in heaven, Archangel Sandalphon’s main role is as a guide who carries your prayers to the God/Goddess.  

Prayer is the ultimate form of communication with a higher consciousness, be it Jesus, Mary, Angels, Buddha, the universe, life or any other aspect of the divine. When we pray, we automatically open our crown chakra, which is the center or space within us that connect us to God/goddess, life and the divine support that is always available to us. We become aware of our own divine nature and the unconditional universal love that exists for all.  

Prayer is an extremely powerful tool for invoking healing, wisdom, love and support for self. 

We connect to nature; we connect the universal aspect of ourselves. Instinct, feeling, intuition and the life- death- rebirth cycles of nature. The individual self is lost in the vast sea of the universal and we become a link in the chain of existence, at one with all of nature. When we connect to the spirit we feel our individual presence in this world. Thought enters us and create a sense of separation for varying beliefs and values.  

When nature and spirit unite in us as the divine, we become in accord with all of life. We may experience the tragedy and ecstasy of life from a place of acceptance, surrender and union with higher source of consciousness.  

When we pray from truly loving, open and humble space for answers or assistance, all we need to do is be open to receive what we need when the time is right, with an open heart and a willingness to take responsibility and be accountable for our lives. You may even experience miracles help you on your way. This is also way of offering love and respect the divine. It may be a way of acknowledging, honoring and appreciating the divine. The more you honor the relationship, the more it will offer to your life. Whatever we nourish will grow for us. If you make this effort you will experience an immense amount of love, synchronicity and support from the divine every day. 

All the sudden there's a great opportunity available for you now in the form of prayer. It is a time for recognizing the universal love and support that is available to you, all that. All you need to do is acknowledge and connect to it. 

"May you have sunshine and moonsong and Angels as your constant companions."

Busy, busy, as the beaver, Persistent in my work and fun, I plan and labor toward my goals Until appointed tasks are done. Beaver, show me how to use The things at hand to reach my goal, Balancing my work and pleasure, My mind and body, and my soul.
Dream Builder The Beaver totem reminds us that we have to act on our dreams to make them reality. It is time for action. If this totem has entered your life, ask yourself: Have I been neglecting my dreams? Am I lost in my dreams and not acting upon them?  The Beaver reminds us that we have to act on our dreams to make them a reality. When it shows up, it is the time for action. Beaver can show you how to construct wonderful dreams! If you are a Beaver person, do not neglect your dental care. It is essential to those with a Beaver totem.

What is it like to not believe in spirits.

As I was watching My Ghost Story I happened to check in online as to what I was watching. I saw a few posts of I don't believe in this crap. Don't know why I am watching. This is all fake..and then some.

I thought to myself I wonder what it would be like to not believe. Fortunately I can't even imagine not believing.

Since I was little I have been interacting with the spirit world. When my relatives died I saw them afterwards. I felt things, presences that others couldn't see or feel. I was different. I was never alone even when I tried to be. Even in the empty hallways at school. They weren't empty and I wasn't alone.

As I got older things were more understandable to me. School was complex. Catholic school and the afterlife really just didn't mix. I struggled with what I had been seeing since I was young to hearing it didn't exist. People die they don't come back.

News flash to the world they do come back. They are everywhere. While ghost shows shout and scream at spirits, if they are about I speak to them directly. They tell me what they need me to know. I talk to them about things going on. Sometimes they talk back sometimes they don't. But they know I am listening to them with respect. How would you feel if you were dead and people are constantly yelling at you to make you do something. There is an easier approach. I am a ghost or spirit whisper. I don't yell scream or harass the spirit world. I have learned over the years the dead are to be respected. Just talk to them. They are there or just listen. If you have an open mind, they will talk to you. I have been doing that for years.

I know tv needs to be dramatic but, I would like to see a show that keeps it real already. The dead walk among us all the time.

Everything Will Be All Right by Doug Wallace

Everything Will Be All Right

by Doug Wallace

I have read many books about people and their life stories. Everything Will Be All Right by Doug Wallace was true to its message. Doug grew up among poverty and he struggled to still achieve his dreams and goals. No matter who told him he was too poor to do so. This book was a hard to put down and emotional read. You can literally pick up with the author was feeling and everything that he was going through. I could relate to a lot of it. This book is an inspiration to moving forward with your goals and your dreams. If Doug Wallace did it so can anyone. If you are stuck in life and people are telling you that you can’t then read Everything Will Be All Right and you will see that you can and anything after that is possible as well. I will be reading this book over and over and sharing it with others I know.

Eat a variety of veggies for a healthier you

Eat a variety of veggies for a healthier you 

The new food guidelines issued by the United States government recommend that all Americans eat between five and nine servings of fruits and vegetables each and every day.  When you first hear that number, it may seem like a lot, but it is actually much easier than you think to fit that many servings of fruits and vegetables into your daily diet.  For one thing, the shelves of the grocery stores are fairly bursting with fresh fruits and vegetables.  In addition, vegetables and fruits are some of the least expensive, most nutrient rich, foods in the supermarket.  With all these fruits and vegetables to choose from, it is very easy to make these nutritious, delicious foods part of your daily meals and snacks.

When you take into account how much a serving really is, it is actually quite easy to get five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables per day.  For instance, the recommended daily amount actually equates to a quite reasonable two cups of fruit and two and a half cups of vegetables every day.  When you consider how many fruits and vegetables are available, and how low the prices usually are, it is easy to see how easy to reach this daily goal really is.

One great way to get the nutrients you need from fruits and vegetables every day is to take full advantage of the variety of these foods available.  Eating the same thing every day quickly becomes boring, so why not pick a variety of fruits and vegetables, in every color of the rainbow and in every conceivable shape, size and texture, to give yourself a varied diet every day.

When shopping for fruits and vegetables, it is important to choose a variety of different colors.  This is for more than purely artistic reasons.  Different color fruits and vegetables have different types of nutrients, and choosing a variety of colors will help ensure you get all the vitamins and minerals you need each and every day.

Finding new recipes is another great way to ensure you get those five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables every day.  Everyone likes to try out new recipes, and these new recipes may just provide the impetus you need to eat all those fruits and veggies.

New recipes can also provide you the important opportunity to try out some fruits and vegetables you have never tried before.  For instance, everyone has eaten oranges, but have you tried kiwi fruit or mangoes?  How about spinach or kale?  Trying new things is a great way to find new favorites while getting the best nutrition available.

Many people mistakenly think that they do not need to eat five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables every day if they just take a vitamin supplement.  Actually, nothing could be further from the truth.  That is because fruits and vegetables contain far more than the micronutrients identified by science and synthesized in vitamin pills.  While these micronutrients, such as vitamin C, vitamin A and vitamin E are important to good health, so too are the hundreds of other elements that are contained in healthy foods like fruits and vegetables.  These elements are not available in any pill, they must be ingested through a healthy, balanced diet that contains plenty of fruits and vegetables.

In addition, fruits and vegetables are much less costly than vitamin pills.  Fruits and vegetables are very inexpensive, especially when purchased in season and grown locally.  In the long run, getting the nutrition you need from the food you eat is much less expensive, and much better for you, than popping those vitamin pills every day.

So don’t forget to get your five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables every day.   It may seem like a lot, but you can meet this quite reasonable goal simply by including fruits and vegetables as snacks, as garnishes, as side dishes and as meals.
