Natives in Australia have long known this plant to be a panacea – able to cure almost any ailment. Since they are a deeply mystical people, it would be easy to draw the parallel of how the aborigines would have used knowledge of tea tree and how this knowledge would most certainly have extended into conditions of the mind and the realm of the psychic, beyond the physical. Let us explore further.
Again, I would like to critically comment on a frequent observation in my energy work practice. I will get straight to the point: There seems to be a common misconception in the new age/esoteric/spiritual scene that the purpose of the spiritual journey is to transcend the body and ‘lower’ emotions by ignoring them and solely focusing on our 'higher' chakras and ‘ascension’.
I was given a piece of Aquamarine when I went to visit the great Seer and Mystic Almine, at her home near the ocean in Newport, Oregon. I felt so deeply drawn through my studies of her material that I should go to where she was and see what transformations could be had in her presence. I have truly never met a more generous, loving individual in all of my life. When I departed, besides the many other gifts bestowed on me during my stay, she gave me a gorgeous piece of Aquamarine which reflected the depth of my visit there.
Tears welled up in my eyes as I watched the recent video of United States veterans kneeling in front of Native Indigenous Tribal Elders and begging forgiveness for the heinous acts perpetuated against them since white men first arrived in this country.
Metaphysical energies are not thought constructs. They really exist, and are observable and controllable.
The problem is that they are not objectively visible, and also mostly immeasurable. They are visible only in the effects - if certain energies work through us, we adjust our environment accordingly.

The average American consumes close to 82 grams of sugar per day, which far surpasses the recommended amount of around 30 grams. Most Americans are addicted to sugar. It is disconcerting that sugar is hidden in almost all food products on the mainstream market.
A well-fed bee is a happy bee, say biologists at Queen Mary University of London. Any beekeeper who truly loves honeybees can distinguish a happy hive from a sad one. The song that emanates from the honeybee community tells all.
I’ve come to believe that to be alive means to experience trauma; and I don’t mean things like war, or car accidents (although those things too) — I mean things like death, divorce, and anything else that shakes us up and makes us feel unsafe physically or emotionally. Trauma can also be secondary, by the way. It can be induced by hearing or seeing someone else’s traumatic experiences. When you take into account the majority of news stories, I’m pretty sure we’re all walking around a little traumatized.
What if your
traditional problem-solving methods were inadequate in dealing with an
uncooperative mind?
What an interesting saying, ‘food for thought’, like an idea to ‘chew on’.
When it comes to digestion, it is as much about our brain as it is our gut. Sayings like these indicate our subconscious awareness of this gut-brain connection and relationship. Both can affect and mirror each other in how they process and digest things.
