Over half of the medical readings that Edgar Cayce gave in his lifetime cite poor elimination as the root cause of disease and illness. In order to remain healthy, human cells need to eliminate toxins and waste products as well as take in nutrients. One of the easiest ways to help the body eliminate toxins and waste, according to Cayce, is to drink a cup of hot water with fresh squeezed lemon juice in the morning before eating any food. A simple cup of hot lemon water helps the body eliminate toxins thrown off during sleep. In addition, Cayce recommended doing some deep breathing exercises to eliminate toxins in the lungs. These two simple morning activities can add years to one's life.
In addition to drinking lemon water to help the body eliminate toxins, Cayce sometimes recommended fresh lemon juice in order to improve circulation and assimilation as well as elimination. In reference to using lemon juice as a therapy, Cayce advised the following:
"Immediately on arising [in the morning] roll a lemon and cut in two. Eat a portion of it - without salt - half of it - all the juice from same - then walk just as far as possible, AWAY FROM THE HOUSE - not so far that the body is not sure of making it back, see? When the body has returned, sprinkle salt on the other half of lemon and eat it. Then drink ALL the water POSSIBLE following same. Not before, but AFTER the last half is eaten. Then sit down, or lie down, and rest until the body feels entirely relaxed before the first meal is taken. Add only that. We will find this acid, combining with that as is created in system and as is being eliminated from system, will reduce not only the pulsation as caused from the reaction to the heart's forces, but will assist in CLEANSING system of the poisons from same." (4999-2)
I find that drinking hot lemon water in the morning is refreshing and makes you feel clean inside. I also found that after drinking hot lemon water in the morning I have little or no desire for coffee or cigarettes. As a matter of fact, lemon water is a great aid for quitting cigarettes. After drinking lemon water, you lose the desire to smoke as your mouth feels fresh and clean and the taste of cigarettes just seems so unappealing. If you want to quit, drink a little lemon water every time you start getting a crave. It just may work for you too!

The Ghost Inside My Child
The Ghost Inside My Child is a new series on the Biography Channel. The show is about children who remember their most recent past life. These children were people who died violently in their most recent past life and quickly reincarnated. According to the show's webpage, "The Ghost Inside My Child shares stories that are often inexplicable and confounding. These young children are having very real memories and very real experiences…that belong to someone else."
This is the type of show that makes me wish I had cable! Video clips are available. The first episode is about a boy named Cade whose past life memories make his mother, Molly Curnutte, think he was killed during 9/11. The video clips show one of his drawings which is a plane heading for two tall buildings looking very much like the towers.
With any luck, these episodes will be available to view on-line someday.

Government Permission Required When Reincarnating
This is a little old, but I love it. A few years back the Chinese banned Tibetan Monks from reincarnating without government permission. In addition, they specifically banned the Dalai Lama from reincarnating. Eventually they had a change of heart and ordered the Dalai Lama to reincarnate in Tibet. This all sounds like a page out of Saturday Night Live but its not! This is serious stuff!
Pain
Much of your pain is self-chosen.
It is the bitter potion by which
the physician within you heals your sick self.
Therefore trust the physician, and drink
his remedy in silence and tranquility:
For his hand, though heavy and hard,
is guided by the tender hand of the Unseen.
-Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
Amazonia: Healing With Sacred Planets
Amazonia: Healing With Sacred Plants is a documentary by Alberto Villoldo, a Cuban-born psychologist, anthropologist and author who has devoted 25 years of his life to studying the shamatic healing practices of Amazon and Inca shamans.
Villoldo started his career in a brain laboratory in San Francisco where he and others were studying the development of psychosomatic disease. According to Villoldo, "One day I realized that I had been looking out of the wrong end of the microscope, becoming caught in the minutiae of neurons and brain chemistry, and missing the larger picture of the mind. I decided to leave my lab and traveled to the Amazon, to work and study with medicine men who had no MRI’s and brain scans, only the power of the mind and local herbs to heal their patients."
High up in the Andes mountains, Villoldo discovered a group of healers who specialized in treating illness before it manifested in the physical body. They achieved this by working on a person's Luminous Energy Field rather than the physical body.
Villoldo eventually returned to The United States and founded The Four Winds. The Four Winds Light Body School offers students extensive professional training in energy medicine based on the 50,000-year-old wisdom teachings of the ancient Americas. The school's goal is to teach people how to become modern day shamans who "learn to live in balance, and share their skills to be of deepest service and make a difference in the world."
Villoldo learned a great deal about energy medicine and healing with sacred plants in the Amazon. He has authored several books on the subjects and produced the beautiful and informative documentary, Amazonia: Healing With Sacred Plants.
Another fascinating video related to this subject is Peru: Hell and Back which is a National Geographic Adventure exclusive.
