Soul returns & burns


Artist: Sari Komulainen / Micaela's GeneKeys / 70th birthday present

Seventy years of age, how did that happen? For the first time this feels different than other round numbers my mortal coil has reach in this life. It feels I am entering a time of distilling the essence of my core, what, my dear soul, are these later crone years about? By now I know, I am nothing without you. As you have been returning, embodying into your sacred temple, my personhood and body, with her likes and dislikes, her importance has diminished. I am a carrier of your splendour, important yes, but really only for the purpose of housing your radiant love & light.

You have been arriving, taking abode in me for a long time, consciously I’ve been aware of the process for some forty years. It all started, guided by my intuition around my 30th birthday. I suspect Saturn, the great celestial teacher had his way, insisted with the wake-up calls. Sphere by sphere, layer by layer you landed and transformed me from the inside out. Sometimes it has been gentle, sometimes brutal and painful, all depending on how much I have resisted and/or put up a fight. Tension and resistance are your favourite tools as nothing comes about without them, life would be boring without striving and finding the inner courage to step outside our comfort zones. A question therefore at this threshold could be: “What is the resistance now, at seventy?” I shall sit with that.

As long as I am alive, I can continue asking the question: “who am I”. Know thyself is the deepest longing for a human being.  As a perspective or a point of view of the ONE, this question is forever dynamic, holistic and interconnected, inspiring consciousness as the capacity to know myself. We have free will, therefore the choice to explore is voluntary. The ONE explores itself through the myriads of perspectives of consciousnesses, and in that sea of ideas, ideals, thoughts, feelings and sensations mine are one. That is the premise for how you should read my blog.

In the beginning, when I had called upon you, because you do not come without an invitation, despite my call, I resisted. Typical Libra oscillation those early years, material worldly life vs. deepening spiritual life. Which would it be? This took a few decades at least. Your early dances with me were violent and painful sometimes, teaching me through tough love. I didn’t get, nor understand the intricacy, actually the genius design, of the holographic mirror effect, how my inner state of mind was reflected in my outer world of circumstances. How life offered ample occasions and opportunities to look at unconscious patterns or trauma arising from my shadow. I, like most of us, had to hit my head against the wall many times, repeating semi-automatically some unhealthy pattern, until it dawned on me, that I myself am the answer to any unresolved issue, unpleasant experience, perceived rejection and heart ache or any misfortune I experienced. Mid-life crisis, at the latest, is usually when this realization comes, if it’s to come.  Many times, I said “that’s enough”, leave me alone. When this happened, I filled my time with irrelevant distractions, soon to notice my error and like a wet dog returning to his/her master from rushed escapades, by some strange invisible hand I returned to the inner call. Deep down a belief grew stronger, that only you, my wiser higher Self & Soul could free me from the confusion and the sense of lostness I experienced in the earlier part of my life. Thankfully you insisted, you never left my side, despite my confusion. Your will and fire were so much stronger than the small will of my personhood, even if I tried, your force could not be distinguished. With each decade the flame grew stronger. Eventually the only thing to do was to surrender. Finally, even that is more than twenty years ago now, I said: “okey, I’ll listen to you now, I’ll listen to you 110 %”; I committed. That’s when your downpouring begun in earnest and with it the burning of the layers in the field of causal old dross. I had come to a cross-road of no-return, a kind of live and change or die moment. Faith was tested many times, as real alchemy is impersonal and does not really care about the alchemist her/himself, spirit just pours through its higher frequency with little regard for the pain it causes in the bodies.

In the beginning of this stage, I sought knowledge. I wanted to understand the Universe and my place in it. What was my true, divine nature? What is the ultimate truth of this Universe I’ve landed in? Why am I here, why did I come? Who am I? Gosh, I had so many questions. Even though the early years seemed chaotic in many ways, in hindsight I see a strange red thread weaving the tapestry, the hidden terma, treasures of continuous revelation in just the right pace I could absorb, deepening my understanding of soul-mystery. Slowly I was shown, or received hints, where The Great Work had been left off in some past life, what needed to be remembered and what integration and further revelation the soul intended to offer in this life time. I am in no illusion of having finished the job, only preparing for the next incarnation.  

We are all unique and may have high sense perceptions already inherent and developed from previous life-times. I have a very heightened psycho-kinaesthetic sensitivity throughout my bodies’ plural – physical, etheric, emotional, mental and spiritual. When the soul, at my request, started its downpouring, the burning sensation in my bodies were brutal. The most intense burning took altogether some fifteen years and still comes under the pressure of Solar activity and high velocity gamma rays. Each layer – this life, past lives, ancestral fields, entangled groups of national conditions, humanity as a whole etc. they all have their layers of dross, they all represent some pattern, which the soul has come to change, release and uplift. No wonder it is often called “the pealing of the onion” in ordinary parlance, coming to the core of our being takes some pealing.

I didn’t become a scholar or teacher in the perennial wisdom teachings this time – that had happened in a previous life time. Nevertheless, I studied the ageless wisdoms obsessively for years and years, there were things I had to remember. Slowly I learned, that this was a life of soul-infusion, of embodiment, of shadow work and alchemy, transmutation and transformation. I am in a female body, so understanding the sacred feminine and how the process differs in this structure became paramount.

I have come to believe that souls in women structures, are the balancers and custodians of the elements of earth and water, whereas souls in male structures were meant to be the custodian and balancer of fire and air. What I mean is, that we know too little as of yet about the deeper significance of gender and the custodianship role we are supposed to carry for the Earth and her kingdoms. We’ve had matriarchy and patriarchy, but no balanced expression yet. Both have to do their own specific service via the heart and the heart does not even start to open until a good portion of the individual alchemical purification work has been done. Both genders need an open heart, own inner feminine and masculine balance in order for the specific alchemical work to be successful. Service work, which is planetary in scope and therefore of benefit to the whole. This is a hypothesis of mine, so take it as such. Unfortunately, I am not very hopeful that such understanding would come any time soon, it hasn’t landed in esoteric or spiritual communities, they too have, to a large extent, been captured by the left brain and the patriarchal system.

Equal rights and opportunities do not mean sameness, too many women still have to adopt the strategy of strengthening their masculine side, suppressing their feminine side in order to “make it” in this world. If there are any archetypes missing in our current western culture, they would be the Nurturing Mother and the Wise Woman. Mothers have become workforce and older wise women are marginalized into oblivion. We’ve become anti-life.

Especially the western world is currently gender confused, childbirth is dropping rapidly and we are still very far from soul informed deeper balance or understanding of our custodianship role as Gaians. We continue raping and pillaging the planet, even in the latest left-brain example named the Green Deal. We are so clever and good at using our intellectual shrewdness to turn anything and everything into a profitmaking machine, more grabbing, more destroying of Mother Earth. We are moving from pumping oil to digging minerals – how is this in any way sustainable. And looking outside western culture, many still await the emancipation and freedom of women to pursue their own individuation enabling growth. Evolution is slow, that is the harsh fact of the matter.

In this life, I could not just read and study about God, Source and/or divinity; I actually had to do the work and allow the transformation. The knowledge and the wisdom seldom interest me, if it did not translate into a lived experience in my body-mind-soul-spirit temple. I became a plumber of sorts, plumbing the unconscious for blocked energies.

A lot of layers needed to be opened up in order to hear, in-between the mental chatter, the soul’s truer messages, those that echoed in my body, those that showed me where I still held on, where energy got stuck and free flow was somehow hampered.  Eventually the questions became clearer, who is behind my thoughts, who is the observer and what is that consciousness trying to show me. My thoughts were only stepping stones to a deeper presence, a deeper contemplation. In good and clear moments, I enter an “ocean of LOVE”, a perfect balanced poise of BEING with no thoughts whatsoever. One with everything, as if a radiating blessing sitting here on Earth. Throughout the years, entering this state of bliss has become easier, although it never comes on demand, only by surrender. And to be clear it is not only a transcendental experience, but very much present here with the mineral, plant and animal kingdoms. Here’s another hypothesis: when men find enlightenment, they often describe it as emptiness but when women find the same, for them it is an experience of fullness. We have had thousands of years of spiritual bypassing, just opening up our upper temples, transcending, reaching up to the heavens and therefore turning our backs on the equally divine life-forms here on Earth, no wonder matter and mother have been forgotten and only seen as resources.

The vastness of the human electromagnetic field humbles me. An energy of awe and reverence enters, but also layers of vulnerability are activated in the face of this huge vista of plasma light. It is like being surrounded and penetrated by the great Cosmic Mother, both inside and out. Tears rise up easily. “I love you” I tell the light and it responds with hues of violet, lavender, blue and magenta, really all colours of the rainbow, golden sometimes, filling my being with corresponding love energy, expanding me further. It loves me right back. If we just understood the holographic nature of our being, we receive what we put out, it is a reciprocal relationship, like a mirror. It is a paradox to simultaneously feel the inner vastness grow and the significance of personhood decrease into a no-body. A chamber of grace really, totally safe, totally loved in a benevolent Universe. Maybe that is why we are told in the Bible, that the meek shall inherit the Earth. You know with every fibre of your being that it is not about you!

It took years, decades to step into soul, become and identify as the soul, allowing it to take hold and lead the show, even play. I had to make space, let go of distractions, dedicate myself and watch personhood find its rightful place. Tune into the Tree of Life which I am, both Divine, Human and Gaian, all saturated with the sacred. Yes, I am also Gaian and so are you! Eden or paradise is nowhere else, it is right here and it is only here, in incarnated life, where the transformation and the transfiguration can be done. In his book Power vs Force, psychiatrist David R. Hawking proposes that we only need a few Christ-like or Buddha-like beings to counterbalance the frequencies of hundreds of thousands of humans. I’m doing my part, maybe counterbalancing a few thugs, knowing full well that we all belong to the one being, Anima Mundi, the soul of humanity.

My inner child is nowadays at ease, the pain is gone. She tells my soul: “you saw me, thank you”! Like me she is resting now, lower belly, waters and womb calm. The energy flows up and down, in and out without impediments in a dance weaving new imprint. Even though I age, it feels paradoxically as if I have become younger inside. The natural inner flow has brought about even greater sensitivity, a sense of beauty towards all relations in my surroundings, be they human, animal, plant or mineral – all vibrate within an energetic field of life more abundant. Beauty can be found everywhere, if beauty and balance resides within. A co-creative space in constant flow and movement.

The connection becomes stronger when I use my soft singing voice. Soul is as subtle as an intricate snow-flake, weaving her is a delicate matter. Just sounding vowels or doing overtone singing, the energy dances in the garden of life, with the elements, calling forth a purifying wind, sometimes a spark of fire, for more high frequency light to enters. The light knows no boundaries, it penetrates brick and stone likewise, it spins through me down into living Gaia, weaves like mushroom mycelia vast connections in the mineral kingdom, sings and flows with the waters of seas, lakes and river and grounds new energy, connecting with and between all kingdoms.

Gaia rises to meet me. She is my vast watery counterpart, source of joy and creativity, Paradise unknown. Through the years I’ve realised it is her I have come to serve, her divination and ascension. I am her daughter past-present and future. I now know my place, a light and anchor in her body. Water of Life has always been, and will always be the way new Life enters this Planet. She is sacred and the water holds the memory. She is currently in her own birthing process, together with the rest of the Solar System, shedding the old and birthing the new. We can join her, even assist her, or we can resist her. If we do the latter, her chaos may be destructive, but hopefully enough of humanity awakens to her sacred nature and act in responsible ways as the custodians of all LIFE.

The soul’s essence is LOVE. It has a fragrance of rose. I, the personhood, just need to move out of the way and she will come with her blessing. When presence is present this love flows unimpeded uplifting life around.

I didn’t get here without sorrow and pain, I had to look at the contrast of the shadow, heal, uplift and transmute. It too wants to be seen, but hides, sometimes deeply in the unconscious. It is after all at the bottom of the compost heap, where the pearl of great adoration can be found. Our shadow, if we choose to see it in a new way, is there to bring awakening and revelation. It serves us, two sides of the same coin – light & dark. We all have them in equal measure and we all have to befriend and integrate our shadow. Here I have noticed another difference between men and women. Men seem to want to fight and defeat the dragon, a warrior hero approach, whereas women tend to melt, greet, befriend and integrate the dragon. Maybe it is our life-giving watery womb that instinctively knows the dragon is her child as well, and who would want to kill their child?

The more I expanded the more subtle the shadow becomes. It showed its entanglements of ancestral patterns in fields of connection going back many, many generations, the soul IS a group being, knows no separation and all is absolutely interconnected.


Above picture: all the wombs and mothers in my paternal line going back to 13th century Novgorod, current Russia. In aristocracy the maternal line has been shunned and suppressed. My attempt to make these women visible and thank them as part of ancestral healing work.

The shadow has a kind of protective aspect, until we are ready to fully see and feel it. Our defences, after all, were lifesaving at some point and they deserve our respect. The contrast polishes our edges and teaches us humbleness. It is a natural part of life; therefore no one can judge, as each of us are so utterly individual, with inner entanglements we cannot see in the other, it is hard enough to see our own. So much is hidden, so many stories untold, so many layers of unforgiving and hardening.

Meet me there, writes Rumi, in the field of forgiveness. Don’t go back to sleep.

“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and right doing,
there is a field. I’ll meet you there.
When the soul lies down in that grass,
the world is too full to talk about.
Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other”
doesn’t make any sense.
The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don’t go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don’t go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don’t go back to sleep.”

Soul- infusion invites forgiveness, there is no avoiding it. She is LOVE and when she enters there is only the way of reconciliation. When the dross is burnt away, nothing else, but LOVE remains.

The hardest may be to forgive ourselves, our choices or non-choices, our body, emotions and thoughts, our organs, cells, molecules, atoms, blood stream, absolutely everything about ourselves. Forgive until all blocks release and flow back into our infinite heart, total acceptance is required. Only LOVE within can flow out as a blessing. The process of melting and surrendering has been a companion for decades, yet still I can catch myself criticizing myself for something.

Everything is relational, we constantly weave relations and grow when relations spark either as a trigger or as a love-spark. We are mirrors and need other mirrors to show us who we are. Our shadow especially loves close relations, as they give it an opportunity to be seen.  I get to observe and reflect upon my own drama. The soul rejoices when this game of life is revealed and allows her wisdom to flow. When something truly gets resolved in all frequences and dimensions it does not need to show itself anymore, it is done and vanishes for good. Initially we understand these relations as only those we have within the human kingdom, but as our field expands it will include all kingdoms of nature as well as soul tribes, inner Ashrams and the Anima Mundi, the Soul of the World. Soul thrives in all of them and we are not separate, although most of humanity still seems to think so.

The souls greatest yearning is to inhabit all corners of my inner Universe and the more I surrender the more my personhood knows it knows nothing without soul and spirit. Be irresistible my soul, intoxicate me is my prayer.

 

This text originated from the data-collection, intuitive process with friends Harriet Fagerholm and Kaisa Peltola. We spent an afternoon facilitated by Harriet with her writing/data collection process. In an intuitive manner we explored areas of: body, thoughts, feelings, needs, inner child, painting/drawing, movement, sound, nature/Gaia, physical environment, love, shadow, sorrow, forgiveness/reconciliation, relations, hearts yearning, dream, will and actions.

Integrative Medicine - a reflection

 

Integrative Medicine seminar, Helsinki 21st of May, 2024

This is a reflection on a seminar I attended last week in Helsinki: Integrative Medicine, Visions for 2030, as part of a bigger event called Radical Health. An afternoon of lectures and networking during breaks. Some 150 participants.

My first thought was positive. Great to see so many people, clearly from within the medical establishment trying to build bridges between contemporary medical paradigm and complementary alternative methods (CAM). This was my initial reaction, but as the afternoon went on, a confused voice grew too, or a voice aware of challenges, and as I was driving home, I tried to catch some of what was rising up in my awareness. I’m a big-picture person, observing trends and shifts in collective consciousness and the culture which is borne out of field.

As I sensed into my discomfort, and have done so this past week, I had to initially admit to myself, that I’ve strayed far from this kind of buzzy/busy business type events, having left that world some 25 years ago. My nervous system became a bit frazzled, consciousness slightly out of the body and my waters were uneasy as the day proceeded. Wisely I did some grounding, deep breathing on the parking lot before hitting the road home.

Sometimes it’s good to go back to something, just to see how evolution has taken you to a whole different place and the “old” world just feels off. Yet, I am immensely grateful for the people who are trying to change the system from within the system. I had myself tried to change systems in the world of international industrial manufacturing from the inside, with some successes and equally some failures, I know it is not easy.  The question is still the same - is it possible, if the foundations wherein the system exists stay the same? Or does the answer rather lie in building a parallel more holistic system, and in due course, thus making the old system obsolete? Begs the question!

The association “Integrative Medicine” hosting the event is still young, formed a few years ago and this was, I believe, their first major event.

We heard opening words from Finland’s EU parliamentary representative Sirpa Pietikäinen. What struck me most was her alarming comment, that the gap, between traditional medicine and CAM (complementary alternative medicine) is greatest in Finland. Many other European countries have many practices where medicine and CAM collaborate successfully and therefore support the overall holistic health of the patient/client. I remember this from my years in Scotland as well. Cancer patients were offered all kinds of alternative methods, energy medicine to alleviate the side-effects of the heavy cancer treatments. They worked side-by-side. In Finland, people also seek these out, but have to do so privately and not everyone, sadly, can afford this route.

In Sirpa’s slides Covid-19 was still presented as a zoonotic virus & pandemic, having come from a wet market in China. I would have expected a parliamentary representative to be more informed and up to date with her information. Clearly, she has not followed the alternative media, nor the many congressional hearings and parliamentary discussions in the US & Brittain. This debate has been going on the past 4 years. The consensus today, 2024, is much more leaning towards a lab leak, i.e. gain-of-function, bio hack and therefore human origin. The spike protein has features, that are impossible for a natural explanation.  I had just the previous day followed a congressional hearing from Washington DC where this fact was finally also admitted, under oath, by Francis Collins, former director of NIH (National Institute of Health in the US). I expect truth from a parliamentary representative, or at least the recognition that the question is still open, hence not settled. The question about excess deaths all over the developed world, also in Finland, is alarming, and they tend to show up 4-5 weeks after a booster campaign. We know far too little about the long-term effects of the mRNA-gene therapies, I refuse to call them vaccines, injected during the pandemic (still ongoing).

Finland is a very bureaucratic and technocratic country. Hearing Sirpa enthusiastically presenting an EU-wide health data-system in the making in some sub-committee in Brussels, run chills up my spine. More bureaucracy behind which to hide. Finland has such a system, Apotti, which has not, to date, delivered its promises. It was introduced in 2018 and has created a situation where doctors and nurses spend more time with data-systems, their failures, the system’s incapacity to “talk” to other data-systems etc, than with their patients and/clients, let alone developing the human element, collaboration and motivation of personnel at the workplaces. People with technocratic mindsets, who develop such systems, seldom take into account the unexpected consequences of their “brilliant” work – one of which is the unexpected consequence of the human being her/himself. Please notice the sarcasm. I should know, I spent several years facilitating engineers from 5 different countries on three different continents in the biotech industry. My job was to help them understand each other, to be open to share information, best available practices and learn from each other. The observation I made was that the technocratic, expertise language (+ cultural differences in this case) in itself often presented the hindrance – I found myself doing a lot of translation in order to help greater collective understanding to emerge. It is not farfetched to draw parallels to the medical establishment and the expertise hurdles there.  Too much left-brain, hardly any right brain skills. This left-brain dominance is overall one of the greatest challenges for the western world at this time. I wholeheartedly recommend the works of psychiatrist professor Ian McGilchrist, his books “The Master and his Emissary” and “The matter with things”.

EU is a centralizing force, yet for the freedoms and rights for constitute individuals’ members in all EU states, it should curb this tendency to the minimum. If it does not do this, creativity, new innovation, also in the field of integrative medicine will be stifled.

Next, we heard from doctor & biohacker Olli Sorvijärvi who specializes in and has a company selling, self-directed gadgets to measure all kinds of health measures. Oura rings, watches, bracelets coupled with apps on your mobile to follow every and each vital force in your body. A market that has exploded the past 10 years and is doing so increasingly. My sense of this new market is that it enables individuals to take more responsibility of their own health by following vitals on their own and noticing when unhealthy life-style choices have a negative impact. Anything that helps people take responsibility for their own well-being is welcomed. Yet, even here, a danger lurks. So far, we are talking about external gadgets you wear on your body (and can take off if you choose to), but soon – actually already happening, we entertain computer chips inserted under the skin, in the brain, even on babies in order to give them a competitive advantage – as if that was the most important thing. Here the boundary between in-organic and organic gets violated in a way that seems scary and potentially dangerous. Anything that violates sacred soul-life, of which the body is purely a vehicle, will eventually fail. The transhumanists are playing with fire, declaring a Silicon Valley based God-like religion for the new human totally separated from nature. A new hubristic transcendentalism, this time of un-natural origin.

Olli was followed by Hanna Voutilainen a functional nutritional therapist. So much is wrong in our food systems, we can listen to Zach Bush to understand the width of the problem, without healthy soil we cannot have healthy food. During the past 100 years the chemical industry has poisoned our soils with the introduction of the monocrop industry and pesticides. Today we have foods that have lost all or most of their nutritional value. As a counterbalance to this western industrial catastrophe, nutritional therapists are sorely needed and their field of work is enormous. Correcting the gut-biome will be crucial and introducing a healthier organic life-style essential. The gut is after all the third brain, together with the brain itself and the heart – all three must be in balance.

In the ancient Finnish folklore Kalevala, when interpreted spiritually and psychologically, the three bad boys, Rujo, Rampa and Perisokea (Barbarous, Cripple & Blind) – representing jealousy, greed and ignorance -created havoc in the world and eventually the sacred oak-tree (tree of life) had to be taken down in order to build a new world. Maybe we Finns should pay attention to our ancestral wisdom and start to figure out how that healthier new world tree, in good/custodian relationship with all the kingdoms of nature could be built. For sure the first thing that must be remedied – related to the themes of this seminar - is to bring a better balance to the reductionist, atomizing, left-brain emphasis countering this with the more holistic, whole-picture, creative right side of the brain.

We were also presented with a dialogue between three long-term doctors, experts in their field, who reflected upon how medicine has evolved the past 40-50 years. The most important comment that stuck in my awareness was Markku Partanen, he stated that we should not have listen to Descartes way back at the start of the enlightenment era, rather Spinoza would have been a better choice. I agree, as Spinoza includes the spiritual dimension whereas Descartes does not.

Maybe because we’ve just come out of the corona-pandemic and its subsequent lock-downs and restrictions, all speaker talked about community, the need for dialogue, human connection and the possibility to exchange ideas face-to-face. There is a yearning in the field for human connection – understandably. We are after all social beings, in need of mirrors and in need of validation and challenge in order to develop into the fullness of who we are.

This was in stark contrast with the last exercise, where the audience was invited to participate in the visioning process. Instead of facilitating human contact and dialogue, putting us in groups of 3-4 people to discuss the presented areas, a bar-code appeared on the screen and we were guided to answer a questionnaire on our mobile phones. This was such a flop, I almost walked out of the room. This could easily have been done later, as an aftercare, sent to the participants with a feedback sheet and a possibility to, in your own time, answer the questions with more time to reflect. We spend way too much time on our mobiles as it is, and an obvious opportunity for genuine human dialogue was missed.  A mistake many seminar organizers do is they try to cramp in too much into the available time, maybe this was an example of that.

But back to the question, can the system be changed from within? We are all, in one way or the other, dependent on the current capitalistic, market-oriented system in the west. Even during Olli’s talk, I was wondering: “is he selling something to me?” We have mortgages, loans, children to raise and put through school and pensions to think about. The competition is fierce and I have no doubt it creates all kinds of blockages for the free flow of creative new ideas. The expertise status of the medical professionals, pharmaceutical scientist and pharmacists and the associations protecting their social status and gained benefits, may well be a greater hindrance in a small country as Finland. Cliques of experts protecting their own areas, is common in Finland in other areas too, the market is small and everyone is competing for grant money or lucrative collaborators. The risk for corruption is well known and let’s say, it would have been refreshing if presenters would have declared their stakeholders and interest groups. Especially after the pandemic public trust in institutions has plummeted.   

The crisis of the past 4 years, pandemic coupled with the revamping of the whole social medical system (SOTE) in Finland may well present an opportunity to break down some of the old structures. Yet so far, I’ve seen only a tendency to build more bureaucracy, administration and more hierarchical systems being built within the centralized big hospitals. Only time will tell if a total breakdown of the system finally forces the change – the change that puts the patient in the fore front again. From the viewpoint of the outsider and potential client, it looks to me as the primary task of the medical system is lost. I hope I am wrong and the situation isn’t as bleak.

I will turn 70 this year, so already in my crone years, but luckily healthy, knock on wood! I only take some supplements like Vitamin D, C etc.  My own receipe has for past 30 years been the postulate which states: “all disease is the inhibition of soul-life”. The soul energy, when embodied is the ultimate healer. It works not just on the physical level – the main area the medical establishment functions on today, but includes the etheric, emotional, mental and spiritual levels of the body.  We are electro-magnetic beings, a soul having a human experience for a short time. Electro in this sense represents the outward going masculine energy and magneto the inward going feminine energy. Finding the balance, this has nothing to do with gender, is key and as everything is interconnected this balance when reached, flows outward as a blessing and inward as a healing agent to organs, molecules, cells, atoms and quarks creating wholeness of health and self-correcting healing.

The current paradigm shift will, kindly or more forcefully through crisis, present this vaster vista for humanity eventually and medicine as we know it today, will change.

I wish all the best to the association of Integral Medicine in Finland and hope that your efforts will benefit the many and build the bridges that are needed.

much love to all…..Micaela
