"I believe that God is in me as the sun is in the color and fragrance of a flower -- the Light in my darkness, the Voice in my silence."

~ Helen Keller
Dear Friend,

As I searched for a spot in the Acme parking lot recently, this woman stopped and got out of her car as my car slowly approached hers. She took a moment to take picture of something behind my car with her cell phone and quickly returned to her car. I thought this odd until I parked facing the direction she was looking in. And then I saw it. An awesome rainbow! Wow, I thought. I too paused to enjoy it. I recalled this inspiring rainbow as I reviewed lesson three of Deborah Redfern's Healing with Color and Feng Shui eCourse this month, I especially enjoyed Deborah's audio rainbow meditation which we share with you today (see below). We also share a NEW Color Healing Flash Show that Mike, our wonderful webmaster, put together for this course!

Do you know the healing value of colors? Did you know, for example, pink helps to counteract loneliness and grief? That orange helps to stimulate digestion; eases stomach cramps, relieves pain and stimulates the appetite. See which articles or offerings below call out to you this month.

Breathe,

June

Feng Shui: A Rainbow Meditation for Healing
Feng Shui: A Rainbow Meditation for Healing By Deborah Redfern   Feng Shui: A Rainbow Meditation for Healing

Do you have a favorite color you like to wear when you feel down, or when you are ill? Have you ever noticed there are colors that give you energy, and other colors that calm you? If you answered yes, you are benefiting from the healing power of color. Many of you have probably already done some color healing intuitively… Color affects blood pressure, pulse and respiratory rate. Enzymes and hormones are affected by color. It can decrease the perception of physical and mental pain. It can be used to reduce fever and swelling and help you sleep. Color can change your emotional state in many ways - by giving you an energy boost, calming you down, or increasing your confidence and self-worth. Color can also ease feelings of melancholy and depression. Social functioning is altered by color, helping you... Read on and listen to audio meditation.

As you seek well-being and consider Laughter Yoga, know that the benefits of laughing continue to be supported by extensive research through mind/body connection work.

Dear Marty ~ Mother Loss: When Will the Crying Stop?
Dear Marty ~ Mother Loss: When Will the Crying Stop?
Q & A by Bereavement Counselor Marty Tousley

Question: I just wish for the day when I can think of my mom without crying. Why does it seem to last for so long? It's been 5 months since my mom passed and I still can't think of her without bawling. I've been very depressed lately and some days are better than others, but it often feels if I'm on a roller-coaster. I just want to keep it together for my daughter. I don't like falling apart in front of her. I wish there was an easy solution to all of this pain. I just want my mom back in my life. I want her to be here for me! I want my dad to not be lonely. I know he is. I don't know if writing this allows me to express how I feel, or is it just a reminder of how much I've lost? Read Marty's response.

How You Can Pray: It's a Matter of Atmosphere and Resonance


How You Can Pray: It's a Matter of Atmosphere and Resonance,
By Rev. Elizabeth A. Reed, Ph.D.

How can you pray like Jesus prayed? How can you reach a state of communion with the Divine that is even remotely similar to the one Jesus appeared to have with Alaha (the Aramaic word for God meaning "Divine Unity")? No matter what your religious background was or what your present spiritual path now is, we all have a deep yearning to connect day-to-day or even moment-to-moment with the Source of All. Prayer as a spiritual practice is taught by teachers of most any world religion. And while there is a fundamental agreement amongst religious teachers that prayer is a means of communication or union with the Divine, there are innumerable ways and means to pray. Read on.

Rev. Elizabeth Reed, Ph.D. is the creator and instructor of these online courses with Neil Douglas-Klotz, Ph.D.:
Breathing with the Divine Breath: Deep Inner Healing in The Beatitude Way
A Healing Journey with the Aramaic Lord's Prayer: Reclaiming the Mysticism of Jesus through His Native Language

Here's What You're Saying About Our Courses...

About Rev. Reed's Beatitudes eCourse
"Easter is happening late in my personal life this year and I particularly like entering the darkness of the tomb/womb knowing that I can count on coming through this difficult time. The study of the beatitudes for me at this time has been powerful and each lesson seems so synchronistic with my journey. I continue to use the breathing meditations on a daily basis. I am really excited by e courses as a way to do self study. Your course is beautifully done and technically easy to maneuver." ~ Dr. Jane Bowes, New Mexico, USA

About Shaman Maggie's Reiki Level I eCourse
"I took my Reiki I course knowing very little about Reiki at all except that I was called to take it. I had no idea about lineage or what impact that may have on my studies. This course taught by Shaman Elder Maggie, was better than being at a class surrounded by other students. I learned so much more in each of her articles, book suggestions, and insightful [lessons]; it was like she was right with me with each lesson." ~ Rossah, Dance Instructor, Nevada

About Linda's Angels eCourse
"Healing Whispers [eCourse] has allowed me to access the spiritual aspects of myself, connect with my higher self, Angles and guides. Thank you, lovely course!" ~ Diana Roche, Missouri

About Laurie's Miracles eCourse
"This Miracles course was fantastic! I loved the guided meditations. They really helped open areas in my mind and soul that had been locked. The images that I received during the guided meditations were very revealing, and have helped me recognize and honor the little, "ordinary" miracles that I am surrounded by every moment. The readings for each course [lesson] were concise, positive and well organized, and were an excellent roadmap for the journey of manifesting miracles. The writing exercises were simple, and were a great way to tie together the readings and meditations, and to make the material relevant to my life and my needs. I would recommend this course to anyone who is trying to manifest "big" miracles in their life, or someone who wants to honor those "ordinary" miracles that happen around us all the time. Many blessings to the course author, Laurie E. Smith, and to Self Healing Expressions for bringing this course to the world!" ~ Sharon Blozousky, Pennsylvania, USA

About Rev. Laurie Sue's Soulmate eBookGetting Ready for Your Soulmate
"I found the ebook to be presented very well. Each chapter is right to the point. I look forward to the time I will meet that special person in my life. It will happen, and I will be ready." ~ Donald Fields, Illinois

Anyone remotely interested in self-development knows they should do it. But few people actually dedicate the years of strict practice required to truly see the awesome, life-changing benefits.

It helps turbo-charge your IQ. It puts you on a permanent, all-natural life high. It dissolves all of your unwanted emotional baggage, leaving you feeling totally free.
