Esoteric vibrational remedies are really hot right now, especally in Hollywood — the next step beyond aromatherapy. I Natural Health magazine says that even Julia Roberts is spraying herself with a Petaltone product to “clear her aura.” of ancient negative ties and resentments(Jason Patric and Kiefer Sutherland by any chance?) Even Julia Roberts knows that essences is one of the few ways she can protect herself from all of the transference, projection and other negative thought forms hurled at her etheric force field every day.”

If you still think this is a lot of nonsense, it is — only try spelling it non -scents. Vibrational remedies, contain the plant essence but not its smell. All you’re bound to smell like is grain alcohol or organic brandy. The idea is that the plant essence itself, either ingested or applied to the body, acts within the subtle body of the aura to correct or balance negative thought forms and energy.

The idea was pioneered in the 1920s by Edward Bach, a trance channeller who went out in the wilderness and ate 38 different wild-flowers. He then noted which plant caused which miserable psychological state. True to the homeopathic principle of “like repels like”, each flower than became a remedy for such complex states as “failing to learn from past experiences” and “for struggling on ceaselessly despite hardships and great odds, never giving up when overwhelmed.”

Eighty years later, Bach’s original idea has exploded to include lines of esoteric remedies made from everything from tropical plants, famous roses, shells, ice, moonbeams, plants and gemstones. Being somewhat of a spiritual thrill seeker, who is always looking for ways to alter her consciousness without getting a hangover, my hobby lately is surfing the internet and looking for the most exotic esoteric remedies that I can find…(I know, I should get a life!)

When I go shopping for essences, I look for something like Ancient Forest Flower Essences’ Norwegian Fjord Waterfall — a remedy made in the clear waters of a towering fjord waterfall — and rumoured to fill one with empowerment. I want to “connect with my higher self” by sipping Healing Antartic Pack Ice which was made on Half Moon Island in the Antartic Penisinsula during an afternoon of rare sunshine. Why have a beer when you can have a glass of water with a couple of drops of Southern Ocean Seaspray in it –”made with Antartic waters during a stormy evening in the Great Southern Ocean at latitude 5905.8 which willl help me to “learn to let go” at the same time.

As I was cruising through sites on the internet devoted to this fascinating subject, it occured me that one could make a vibrational essence out of just about anything. It’s not like you need a degree to conduct these special vibrations. Anybody can do it. In fact, I was thinking of creating my own line of vibrational essences for the esoteric connoisour. How about “Sexual Realization” — an essence made in the back seat of a 1972 Ford Chrysler under a full moon on Halloween while chewing pink bubblegum and losing one’s virginity at a Drive In. Or “Patience of A Saint” — an essence I personally channelled while standing in line at the Toronto Dominion Bank under flourescent lights while having to pee while trying to cash a cheque during a heat-wave day in Toronto in 1986 or “Complete Fulfillment” — an essence I made well dancing completely nude in the rain around a huge bonfire during a thunderstorm while being made love to by two men and women and eating lasagna at the same time during the last harmonic convergence?”

Years ago, I came up with the idea for an esoteric spray called “Babe Away” — an aersol that would contain a concentration of energy that would repel unwanted attentions away. Sadly, once again, I was ahead of my time. Petaltone, a company out of Britain has made a product called Aura Blue, that does exactly that; it helps one with the process of “tie-cutting” obnoxious energies that may have hooked into your aura. Of course, what these companies are really selling is just water — but it really holy water? Only the holes in my aura know for sure.

It may seem a contradiction but it is possible to have a healthy and delicious cooked breakfast.

First, start with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice – full of vitamin C and counts as one portion of fruit and veg.

Then a bowl of porridge made with half semi skimmed milk and half water. Top with just a teaspoon of unrefined sugar. Oats are Low GI so keep you going through the day and also contain soluble fibre which is good for the heart and for lowering cholesterol. The milk contains protein and calcium – both essential for good health.

Then the cooked bit. I suggest 2 rashers of lean grilled back bacon, a poached egg, one grilled tomato, a large grilled flat mushroom and baked beans.

Some survey said that people who eat eggs in the morning are shown to be slimmer than those who don’t. Again full of protein. The tomatoes and mushroom count as one portion of vegetable each. The beans are full of fibre – recommendations say you should be 18g of fibre a day.

Then have a bowl of prepared fruit – another 2 portions of fruit with a natural yoghurt.

Finish with a slice of wholemeal toast with a small amount of butter – much better in my opinion to have a small amount of natural butter than synthetically produced margarine. The toast contains fibre and also wholegrains which are good for the health.

Perfect and no desire to snack on unhealthy foods for the rest of the day!

People having to deal with from multiple sclerosis and paraplegics often have problems in sexual health, but sildenafil / viagra can help them restores effective erectile function, and below you will learn how.

The Disadvantages of Cialis

When treating erectile dysfunction (ED) with prescription medication, the choice comes down to two main brands: Viagra (sildenafil) or Cialis (tadalafil). Erectile dysfunction can be frustrating and embarrassing, but is really very common. There are a few things it’s important to understand about this condition before choosing a treatment plan.

How the 2 ED medications work

Both sildenafil and tadalafil affect the body in similar ways. Erectile dysfunction is defined as the inability to achieve or sustain an erection, and medication helps by increasing the blood flow to the penis. This allows for an erection to occur where it formerly physically could not have been achieved, because the penis would not have received enough blood to become fully erect.

Natural results

Medications are designed to work with the body’s natural sexual cues, so the drugs do not cause an erection themselves. Rather, they allow for an erection to take place when there is a physical or psychological issue that might otherwise be preventing typical sexual function. Erections only take place in response to physical stimulation.

Benefits of treatment

Early intervention in treating ED can drastically lower the negative impact the condition usually has on an individual and his partner. As the problem continues, stress related to sexual performance increases, which in itself can contribute to further sexual dysfunction.Very quickly, this becomes a vicious cycle.

Alternative treatments

Of course, there are other ways to treat ED besides medication, but none of the other methods have shown nearly the same level of success. They may also require more invasive procedures, such as surgery. Or, they may need the use of complicated and embarrassing mechanical suction. Most men who struggle with ED find the best results through the discreet use of oral medication.

Overview of sildenafil

• Is taken only as needed
• Is effective about 30 minutes after initial dose
• Lasts an average of four hours
• Does not remain in system

Overview of tadalafil

• Must be taken daily
• Can take a few days to a few weeks to reach optimum effectiveness

How do I decide?

When choosing between tadalafil and sildenafil, it really comes down to lifestyle preference. Cialis must be taken every day, even when not planning for romance, because it needs time to build up to effective levels in the body before results are seen. Viagra only has to be taken when planning on becoming intimate, and effects dissipate naturally within a few hours.
