Ask For Help And You Shall Receive It: Following on from my recent article regarding Angels the following is loosely connected to it. I had decided to take my dogs for a walk to clear my head as much to give them the exercise they needed. I took my usual walk to the top of my road, took a left and stopped at their favourite stop.
***
It was within a few yards of the local bus stop where a patch of grass leading to a tall tree was and where they always head for on our walks. I looked around as the dogs did their daily constitutionals, I noticed an elderly woman looking towards me.
***
She was at the bus stop. I naturally assumed she was merely looking down the road beyond me waiting for the bus to arrive. I did my civic duty and tidied the dog’s business in an appropriate biodegradable bag. It was then that I realised the woman was looking at me and trying to get my attention.
***
I walked towards her as she stepped away from the bus stop and asked me for some help. I gladly stopped to help in any which way I could. She asked if I knew if the buses that stopped at the bus stop, she was standing at, went in a particular direction. I explained that it did not, and she was quite some distance away from the nearest bus route she needed to be on.
***
I decided to take her back towards the local hospital and point her in the right direction, so I replied follow me I will show you the right direction. We headed up towards the traffic lights crossed over to the other side of the road and back towards the entrance of the local hospital. It transpired that she had been at the hospital for an appointment but couldn’t find a taxi to take her home and somehow found her way to the bus stop near my walking route.I gleaned from her that she was in her late 80’s and had an appointment for a scan that morning and was heading back home to her elderly brother whom she cared for.

We would like to say thank you to the team at Concordia Clinic for treating those who have been referred through LifeBalancestudio. The international students who are now at the end of a very long course (with several years of study already under their belts) once again took care of us all.

The final phase of their training which is for advanced practitioners is the Tui Na phase. (Chinese physiotherapy). Tui Na works for skeletal and muscular problems as well as a whole host or other problems that we have not got around to speaking about just yet, we will though!

The team have had returning patients and sportswomen. Julie and Anne who both represent Team GB Dragon boat Crew and Amathus Dragon boat and Canoe Club in Liverpool.
The team also treated those with repetitive strains, wear and tear and spine problems to name a few. The treatment can be very different from Western medicine and promotes balance and harmony in the body. As you can see from the pictures, there is no need to get undressed and very non invasive. Tui Na promotes energy flow around the body to speed up and aid in healing.
The final clinic day this year is Saturday the 1st of November!

If any of our readers would like to attend then please come and speak with us on our next Day of Healing on the 25th of October where we can then refer those who need or want treatment to the clinic. Each treatment is 45 mins long and is completely free. The team will accept a donation if offered. You can also get in touch with us via any of our socials to find out more.

We have referred many to the clinic over the years and they have helped many. In a lot of cases going above and beyond which we are very grateful for. Should any of our readers know someone who would benefit, put themselves last or in pain then get in touch with us. The team will be very glad to help and we can refer to Rob and James.

Astral Travel Open If You Are: I can’t say I have ever experienced Astral Travel though I was one occasion asked had I been Astral Travelling by a Palliative Care Nurse on the way back from a funeral reception. I have to admit at the time I had never heard of such a thing, and my only response was, “not that I am aware of”.
***
Editors note: Before Greg continues with his article, we feel it is important that we give the spiritual warnings and safety brief. We do not encourage anyone to try and Astral travel regardless of what someone on the internet is telling us. We never force Astral travel, if it happens organically then fine but trying to force it or practice will lead those who try in dangerous territory. We will never know what we may pick up or bring back with us at a minimum. If you wish to know more about this then come and speak with us on the next LifeBalance Day of Healing.
***
I was aware at the time of the term Out of Body Experience (OBE) or Near-Death Experience (NDE) but Astral Travel was certainly a new one to me although I am aware they a near enough the same thing.
***
Some ancient writers described experiences or beliefs that would be recognized as out-of-body experiences (OBEs).
***
Plato theorized that the soul is separate from the body and can survive death, which is the basis of the concept of the soul migrating after death, but this is a philosophical belief and was not a description of a personal experience.
***
Plotinus’s writings include descriptions of out-of-body phenomena, and he wrote about such experiences. His philosophy emphasized the soul’s connection to a higher spiritual realm, and his experiences and teachings are considered foundational to Neoplatonism, a school of philosophy that explores such spiritual journeys.

Was he an Angel? I had a period of what I call transformation a year after my brother Conor had passed away.
***
His passing had opened a period of learning or more like a thirst for knowledge which allowed me to expand my mind and open my eyes to things I had dismissed previously or simply chose to ignore. The following story I am about to relay is like most things subjective and so I will leave it to you to accept or dismiss as you please or see fit.

I had been in town with my eldest brother Paul and had a morning of interesting conversation particularly regarding spirituality. We ended the meetup with a look around a bookshop ending with a purchase tea and cake. We said our goodbyes and I headed off towards the bus and home. I had just managed to catch the bus so was a little hot and bothered when I eventually sat myself down heading home.
***
My wife Clare was due to go out early that evening, so I was mindful that I had to be home no later than 4:30.
***
The journey home on the bus took roughly 30 minutes I was nearing the turning towards the local hospital where i lived. I had received a text of someone I know telling me that she had spoken to someone who was willing to show my artwork in town. So, I rang my brother Paul to tell him the news but didn’t get an answer so, I decided to get off the bus a stop early and try to call him again. I stepped off the stop one stop early and rang his number once more.

I was calling him as I had been given the message to spread my wings and the news I had received was certainly pointing that direction.

Chakras 8 Close the Hatch: Why is there such a big thing about opening chakras? Why do people insist on doing this pose to do this, that pose to open that. It is a lot like hip openers, we can cause pain for the students. Why do many think with a little bit of instruction we now have the ability to open another chakras.

Oh yes, the Western way!

Let us look at it another way, then we may begin to understand the dangers of messing with our chakras. Would we allow someone from outside to open the hatch of a submarine that we were in?

What could possibly go wrong!

Let that sink in – no pun intended lol

We should ask ourselves why a submarine hatch would be closed. Why can’t it stay open all the time, what harm could it do? The hatch needs to be closed at times so it can operate in its environment safely. When is it safe to open the hatch? What would happen if someone tried to force it open from the outside?

Many still believe that the poses open and close the energy centres but this is not the case for most born in the West. Yoga teachers in the West are not spiritual teachers, they are not the same as their Eastern counterparts. Even in the East much spirituality is lost to the rise in commercialism.

We cannot serve two masters!

Breathe and Relax: Have you ever felt overwhelmed by daily life, struggled to be heard through the noise and clatter? Felt the onset of a panic attack and struggled to get through a stressful day.

You are not alone for in the UK it is believed that 1 in 10 people suffer a panic attack at some point in their lives whilst 1.7% of the UK population experience panic disorder.

It is also believed that 30% of the Uk suffer from Brain Fog Memory difficulties – particularly immediate memory or feeling overwhelmed by simple everyday tasks.

There are of course many reasons why the daily grind can throw us off kilter especially when we least expect it.

My first panic attack happened when I was in my 30’s whilst working in a busy Assurance company. I had to go upstairs to talk to someone in the finance team regarding a case I was working on. Nothing unusual in that as it was part of my job. I had decided to take the two flights of stairs, again nothing unusual.

I reached the 11th floor and started to explain what my query was to a work colleague. Out of nowhere I started feeling very unusual. First it felt like my chest was ready to explode, almost like my heart was going to rise and break out of my body.

I started feeling clammy and I could see the other person looking at me strangely. I could also hear that my voice sounded disjointed further back in my mouth than it ordinarily would have sounded. I felt like I was having a heart attack. Overdramatic I know but at the time it was something I had never experienced before.

Breathe and Relax.

I quickly finished my one-sided conversation and left not even bothering to find out if I had made sense or not. I headed to the toilets and sat in a cubicle trying to clam myself down. It was only with taking deep slow breaths did I eventually recover myself. It was only much later did I realise I’d had my first panic attack.

Nor did I realise until later that breathing in a controlled manner can help the body in so many different ways.

The yellow Bicycle: A yellow bicycle stood propped against a red brick building chained and yet almost looking abandoned.
***
Its brightness brought my attention at first then it being chained against the wall second. Nothing out of the ordinary yet my attention was stirred. Was it abandoned or merely being kept safe?
***
Life can leave us questioning ourselves at times. We can feel secure one minute and then left with a feeling of abandonment the next without really knowing why and how to cope with it all.
***
Our own individual actions can create moments of insecurity but that is just the cycle of life. Turning these feelings around is the step we need to take not to allow ourselves to feel chained to a situation.
***
We have to realise we can just as easily act in one way just as we can another. I have always said to friends that there is nothing wrong from making mistakes just as long as we learn from them. There is in turn nothing wrong in feeling abandoned for that is a gut reaction to some unwanted situations. It is realising why we feel abandonment and how we can resolve this that matters the most.
*The Yellow Bicycle*
Life is not easy and of course no one ever said it was. Life is a journey full of trials and tribulations just as much as it can be filled with joy and jubilations . We just have to roll with the bad times as much as the good and understand when we have a dip that is all it really is. There is after all no reason why we cannot once again find ourselves at the top of a peak once more.

Christ Krishna Seed: Understanding the connection between Krishna and Christ will help many understand their path. It will help us understand our yoga practice as well as unity with the spirit within. It will also allude to why Eastern practices cause chaos for many in the West but also an essential step in soul evolution.

Today we will share some light on the connections and teachings of Krishna and Christ and to help understand what and who we truly are. There are those who say there is no connections between yoga and the bible. There are many, if we know where to look but more importantly, discern and understand.

The Son rises in the East.

When Krishna left this planet, his final act was forgiveness. It is written that he was shot in the HEAL by an arrow and forgave the person who pulled the string. In the bible we can also read that Jacob exited the womb holding his brother, Esau’s, HEAL. When Yeshua was crucified one of his final acts was to ask for Forgiveness for the perpetrators. These aspects are important. Healing and forgiveness.

First and Last acts come to mind?

“He who has ears, let them hear”.

To help our readers we must consider what we have written prior to this article. That is internal and external instruction amongst other things. We are only sowing seeds for the moment. There are never any coincidences only connections. The intention of this article is open the mind to thought, understanding and questions.

Krishna’s teachings were to lead to God that is within. Yeshua taught these very same lessons. Krishna retaught how to connect to our spirits prior to his departure. Yeshua taught preparation of the vessel to receive and know the god that is within. Full article https://share.google/6sZUoLlBWosdMSWix

Regrets: (I Have Had a Few): There is nothing wrong with regretting something, a missed chance, a wrong word or failing to do something we later wish hadn’t or a missed opportunity to say goodbye.

As a species we can feel fallible at times particularly in stressful moments or times of grief.

There is no wrong in not feeling perfect and having moments when we are prone to feelings of failure for, we all deal with aspects of our individual lives in different ways. There is no secret guidebook that shows us how we should behave for we all react to things in many ways depending upon the circumstance that we are placed in at any given time or day.

We should not be defined by our mistakes nor allow them to overtake our thoughts and behaviours.

We should, however, allow them to empower us to seek understanding as to why something has happened or why we have reacted a certain way, be it out of character or not, and rebuild from them a better, stronger self.

Ruined buildings do not just show us the past but what we need to rebuild.Do not let regret overtake us. Rather it should show us that new life can be built to replace the old. Where we see broken windows and fallen bricks – think more about what we will be able to replace it with. Let our imagination run wild and not allow negativity reign over us.

Unfortunately, we are not always strong enough to fight these thoughts or feelings alone and that is why it is beneficial that we seek guidance and help from others when all else appears to be lost.

I for many years regretted not buying my father a Christmas present as he was in hospital just before Christmas. I kept telling myself I will buy him something when he is out of hospital. Sadly, he passed away on Christmas day that year. I regretted that simple act for far too long.

I would think about it every Christmas for way longer than I should have. I think for me it was a bit of a release valve for I would get upset and cry thinking about it. It was only after sharing my feelings did, I learn to accept it and see it for what it truly was.

Thank you 🙏🏽 See you again soon!
