GREETINGS
FELLOW BEINGS OF
LIGHT AND MATTERWelcome to the premiere issue.
It give me great pleasure to present you with my very own Newsletter. I hope that some
will enjoy it as much as I have in putting it together; from scratch, well almost. I did use a
template to begin with. As I went along I began to make modifications to the layout and print.
This is not unlike life.
We are given a blueprint from which to work
from or create with. However as we begin to live
life we begin to make modifications. Sometime we
make choices that we are happy with that allows us
to function in joyful ways. Other times we make
choices we are happy with, but it creates difficulties
in unpleasant ways. Why you might ask we are
happy with these choices. For the simple reason is
they give us what we want. The trouble is we are
not always willing to see what it is we want and
therefore we don’t understand how we created
what we got. Other times we are happy because we
see the strength, knowledge and understanding we
have gained from going through a challenging participation. If willing, there are always resources to
assist us to make different choices. Blessings and Hugs.

In The Wilderness
of Chaos ~ A Personal Story
I thought I would begin this section by sharing one of my own stories with relation to the nature of ancient methods that help
us to be well. The first one that I began to experience is Reflexology in 1983. I
was still suffering at that time from an injury to my right big toe which
occurred in 1978. The injury was
created while I was holding a horse that
had just finished running a race and was a little hyper. To
alleviate his nervous energy he was pawing the ground. This is the nature of the horse,
but is not necessarily a fluid motion. As he struck out, much weight is concentrated in the other 3 feet and then transferred to the striking foot. Unfortunately my intuitive
senses were not present and he struck my
big toe. Then to complicate matters for me, he dragged his foot off of mine. Race horses are also fitted with special shoes. These shoes have little ridges on them that
help them grip the earth and give them more traction and oomph to their stride. It also causes more damage to the human
foot. In my case the big toe and ball of foot and tendon attached to it. The whole foot would have felt
the impact but this is the area that preceded to give me trouble for several years. The problem I was
having had to do with walking, but mostly with turning on the ball of the foot or bending the
big toe joint. At times it was extremely painful and cleaning stalls was problematic. Several
years later, and even though I no longer cleaned stalls, I was
still having difficulties with some movements. Then I got involved with
Reflexology and several sessions later I no longer had the pain I experienced in my big toe joint. To this day I continue to be free
from the injury.

SOUL*AR EXCURSIONS
The Body is Designed for Movement
Pick one form of movement that involves the whole
body. Allow yourself to intuit what that movement is. Then using breath, breathe into the movement and
then breathe out of the movement. It might look like
this ~ you bend forward allowing the body to do the
bending and breath out, then allowing the body to
straighten, you breath in. Do between 5 and 10 breaths. Something more complicated could look like
a spiral coming out from the waistline and following
energy flows out through the toes and fingers. Breathe
out as you spiral out and breathe in as you bring the
spiral back allowing the movement to complete itself; the body and not the mind leads the movement and
direction it takes. Repeat in the opposite directions.

Petra’s training, experience, intuitiveness and knowledge assist the recipient to adjust the way their body receives and processes energy. The energy flows, when stressed through fear, trauma or injury, create disabling affects on the body, mind and spirit (or emotions). Dis-Stressing the energy flows allows the person to reinstate their Innate State of Alignment (or Balance Point) leaving a person capable to handle difficult situations, solve problems and to remain consistent and stronger in the face of adverse changes.
