I had to appear as a witness in a court case today, scary experience. What if I said the wrong thing? What if I couldn’t answer a question?
As the time approached my mouth got drier, my hands began to shake….. I knew I had to calm down.
I sat up straight on my chair in the waiting room and, ignoring those around me, I began to do the energy builder. Slowly, very slowly. My heart gradually stopped pounding, my hands no longer shook.

I’ve been a healer for 30 years and have helped a great many people to become well again. I have used healing as part of my homoeopathic practice and have found it especially useful in helping to relieve the pains of advanced cancer.
I mostly heal through the client’s aura, feeling the energy for any irregularities , and then giving healing until those irregularities have been smoothed out. And I’m often able to tell a client that something that they were unaware of is brewing and when something they were worried about has been cleared.
I was amused to learn that one client felt so much better after healing Read more on What is Theta Healing and How does it work?…

Sometimes we get so caught up in the ‘I’ve got to get this done now, no time to spend on other things that we actually miss out on life and then feel that because tasks seem to take us a long time to do we haven’t time for anything else – what a cycle to go round in! The following highlights one way to break the cycle.

I was born in Uganda and raised in London, England but no matter where I lived my home has always been an Asian home. My mother has adopted many Western ways but has always retained a great belief in traditional Indian remedies which she has passed on to me.
How do they work? In most cases my answer is “I have no idea”, but for me they have been proven to work time after time. I hope you find them helpful too.Read more on Natural healing from an Indian Kitchen…
