Enjoy the Blogs in the righthand column here and the quotes throughout. A more refined newsletter is emerging in the coming weeks. See schedule on our website for offerings in several locations. I will come to work with interested groups as well. The books are still in process-stay tuned.

 

I hope this finds you enjoying the days and nights of winter into spring. I have gone deep myself and done most of my writing these past months on Facebook at www.facebook.com/janet.straightarrow and www.facebook.com/bethemedicine and in Blogs on the home page of my website www.bethemedicine.com. Please do enjoy the quotes and writings that are inspiring, helpful and relevant with the energy of the day they are written, they are also timeless and worth reflection.

 

Since the last newsletter I have deepened and simplified Be The Medicine practices and teachings with groups of students, individual clients and myself.

 

It is exciting to share and develop ways of profound, efficient and what some may call magical healing, and loving us all into greater alignment with the best us.

 

It is very rewarding to walk with and mentor others, in being their best selves and overcoming health and life challenges easily. From young children to elders, the teachings, healing and practices create immediate ease and movement and healing. Fun!

 

It has been well worth all the years of study and practice to finally feel that all of the pieces are now working together. Knowing that life keeps evolving and showing us new ways and lessons, I know there will always be more to discover.

 

SPRING IS NEW BEGINNINGS-SEEDS ABOUT TO BURST FORTH

This is a brand new start for me having healed from the traumas of the last few years - see Valentines newsletter from 2010 - I have used this healing to understand many of our life challenges, the process of healing and solutions with extreme experience. We can, make tremendous changes and overcome all challenges and live healthy, happy and free!

 

Enjoy the Journey and the articles in this offering. See my schedule on my website and I am available to work with groups teaching and offering private sessions in addition to phone and in person sessions and classes at our location in Morristown, NJ.

The best is now.

 

Within six months I began to have deep spiritual experiences that awakened memories and abilities within myself. I continued to follow my guidance and knowing and began to study with Shamans and renowned teachers in healing traditions from around the world.

So many were natural for me and awakened even more abilities, and in the practice with students and clients, all of the pieces from all of the prior years began to come together.

 

Every modality I studied, offered many answers and possibilities, and yet each one still had missing pieces. My search in all these years was to discover the how to do the healing that was spoken of in the New Testament from the Master Jesus who said "You can do all I do and more."

 

At fifteen I knew that we do not have to be sick and in pain, which began my search as to how. Researching and experiencing many practices and traditions opened up new doors and windows and answers. Be The Medicine blends many of the best of these in our work.

 

Years later, deeper study and experience in several traditions of Shamanism offered ways to access our own innate healing ability and wisdom and knowledge, not in one way but for each of us in our own way.

 

It took closing a successful full time Healing Practice and Learning Center -Oasis For The Soul and taking a sabbatical, to putt all of the pieces together in ways that worked, and were StreaightArrow-simple, logical and made sense for everyone. The sure test of things is that it works no matter who uses the methods or practice and tools.

 

Even though I have a deep lineage in many traditions, and have natural abilities, I can teach everyone to awaken their unique abilities and heal and become who they are, fully and freely. This is my honor and privilege to midwife people into their own wholeness.

 

I have worked with clients and students, from all walks of life, teaching them how to drop all the veils and the blocks, and access who they are and be able to heal and become themselves, in all of their fullness and possibility.

 

Becoming you bridges all aspects of you. I was not afraid to go into places and study teachings that were unacceptable, or those that people judged, or were afraid of, because each of these places offered the hidden gold in my treasure hunt for complete answers.

 

You are not required to dance and drum to access the connections and lessons. Although many have confused ideas about Shamanism it is the original religion and healing in all traditions and areas of the world. Each culture, like each religion has their own additions and beliefs. I have been guided to neutralize the teachings to be all inclusive and aligned with nature and Universal laws.

 

Stay tuned for more on this in future writings, newsletters, Blogs, Facebook and Twitter and upcoming books and recordings and classes and private sessions.

You are the medicine in your own life, it takes unlearning and remembering to be fully aligned with your unique self and humanity. Removing the ways we are in the way, and becoming your own best advocate helps all other people, and the earth and Universe as well.

 

This month I suggest you explore your blood type and how you can empower your body and life with some research, action and understanding. In 1996 Dr Peter D’Adamo introduced research in his book Eat Right 4 Your Type. This was groundbreaking work where he broke down blood types to explain how different foods, metabolisms, physical and emotional challenges, allergies, and so much more, were tied to our blood types.

I suggest his first book and really reading it thoroughly to learn to understand and work with it. Let experience be your guide not prejudice. I am not familiar with his subsequent books so I cannot recommend them.

Personally I did not like it at all, because as an O Blood type it showed how many foods I loved did not love me and why. I found this book full of information that made sense and explained a lot for my family, my clients and myself.

Over the years when I ignored it I saw the results as over acid, overweight and sluggishness of mind and body. Eating foods that were said to be eliminated for my blood type broke down my body and made me vulnerable to disease and pain in various parts of my body and joints. When I worked with it, I found slimming as natural, higher energy and clarity, and I was healthier and pain free, and was grateful for listening.

I found others also found truth in their blood types and it explained what was formerly unexplainable. O’s are Ancient Blood Types and need more animal protein and less carb’s. A’s are vegetarians and need more plant based proteins and foods. B’s need balance of foods. AB is the newest blood type on the planet and has unique needs to address.

Each one is worth reading everything about and trying to work with it as best you can and watch how your challenges in body, mind and spirit go away.

Digestive support is also an important component of this work and explains why you are having the problems you are.

Since suggesting this book to many people, I have been disappointed to find that some Doctors will not do a blood test for type when asked. I understand there are kits available to test for your type online that are accurate. Doctor D’Adamo's web site offers these kits, as do many others.

To be healed and whole we learn to look at what is not working and find solutions. Eating foods that break down our body do just that. Eating nourishing foods that build up our body create health and wellness in all areas and levels of us.

You are worth the time and investment to be happy and healthy and free!
