But in our family of three, I realize that my preferences are different from those of my husband and those of our daughter. My preferences are similar to my husband’s but not with our daughter’s.

Perhaps this explains why lately we have been agonizing about a specific issue. Our daughter and I have become emotional over our differences but I thank God we are still communicating.
Then I have been inspired to go the Ho’oponopono way. When I pray I surrender my preferences to Divinity who knows, who sees the bigger picture. I trust the comprehensive Ho’oponopono prayer will take our differences and oen our hearts to accept the greater good.

For almost a week, I was indisposed. Blame it on “overload” or indigestion. Blame it on poor resistance to infection. To me, the physical reasons are no as important as the psychospirituality or the metaphysical explanations

Dr Christine Page talks about: “the ability to sift through the myriad of thoughts which flow, often unconsciously, through our mind, and retain those which can realistically bear fruit, whilst destroying the rest”.

In my case this was what happened: “the individual’s mind becomes so overwhelmed with all manner of thoughts with little discrimination”.
“…the stomach… will often show signs of ‘overload’  (indigestion).

Dr Christine Page wrote about anxiety and an imbalance of the immune system as well as inflammatory bowel ailments.
She continued: “from a psychological point of view, these individuals are sensitive with a highly developed intuitive and creative side to their nature (even though this may not have been given the space to be expressed)

I realized how much has been left unexpressed after a very stimulating lunch discussion with my husband, Tato Malay, Noel Hornilla and Marito Platon last September 21.

Relatedly George Sison wrote in a book given by Tato Malay:
“Our orientation is to stress what we don’t like…. the Bible says it succinctly:resist not evil. What you resist stays in your mind, and that is what you will get”.

“Everything in your life is what you have asked for, though not consciously. Figuratively speaking, you subconsciously chose to write the story of your life based on the lessons you have to learn in this lifetime. ”

The above together with what I have learned from Joe Vitale’s “Zero Limits” have shown me the responsibility I have for my own life. I needed the dis-ease to stop and go inside myself to rediscover my God in me.

In an interview by Lilou Mace during the Quantum Medicine Conference in Hawaii in 2012, Dr Bruce Lipton spoke of the programming everybody receives during the first six years of one’s life.

I would like to correct t some pf those programs I received especially those related to health. I would like to start with what M. Doolitle said: “Jesus did not hand out crutches to the lame.” He healed them.

Next I want to listen to Dr Page: “I believe that the purpose of life is to experience wholeness and thereby express the light of our soul in its entirety. Since the word “healing” means to make whole we would also reflect total health.”

Another useful reminder from Dr. Page: “It is time to recognize that some of the limiting states are in fact illusions which are no longer applicable to the present situation.”

“As we breathe, we think and as we think, we are!… Just imagine how you would feel if on each in-breath you experienced emotions such as happiness, peace of mind, excitement, inner tranquility or a real sense of belonging.”

“And then imagine the impact of that out-breath on your activities and on those around you.”

Similar to Dr. Lipton’s programming, Dr Page says: ” We enter each new situation with a subconscious bag of pre-conceived ideas concerning people and life, based on previous experience, associated emotions and the social or cultural training which w received in our formative years.”

As an application, Dr Page continues: ” At this time in our history when society, supported by media, is telling us to trust nobody, the solar plexus is working overtime, often creating excessive reaction to non-life threatening situations. I believe that on a physical level this heightened hypersensitivity is partly responsible for the increase in illnesses due to allergies, such as asthma and eczema.” May I venture an opinion; this may even explain such dis-eases as those caused by virus.

Dr Page continues: “Unless we wish to create a far greater fear-based society, it is time that we brought some rationale and wisdom back into this equation. The way forward is to allow the intuition to guide us towards a better life where there is trust, generosity of spirit and the ability to know what is best for the individual soul without the need to judge others.”

I would like to end this with a quote from Dr. Page but this time from another book, The Mirror of existence”. She says: “I do not believe that this is a planet of suffering, pain and guilt or persecution. These are man-made rules which need to be discarded. But before we build another set of conditions let each of us reach inside and touch the heart of our being so that we may be open to our intuitive thoughts and build a healthier, happier and more unified world for all concerned.”

The cellular biologist, Bruce Lipton according to Dr Page taught that: “if we want to change our biology and state of well-being we need to change our perceptions.”

The above is especially inspiring to a senior citizen like me often riddled with fears and anxieties.

The Dalai Lama is quoted by Dr Page as saying :” the greatest gift we can give anybody is self-confidence and respect which comes from a place of encouragement and love. Only when we know that for ourselves can we offer it to another.”

Back to Dr Lipton: “Despite the fact that for the past 50 years, science has maintained that our fate was programmed in our genes, it is now emerging that our external universe, internal physiology an more importantly our perception directly control the activity of our genes.

Dr Page interprets Dr Lipton thus: “our perception controls the genes and their subsequent production of hormones, proteins, enzymes etc and not heredity unless the same thought patterns continue unchallenged from one generation to the next.”

This I personally believe explains why the magnesium spray of Mary Jean Netario Cruz has been so effective in my recovery – walking without a cane!

According to Dr. Christine Page: “Body talk directly addresses the consciousness of the cells bypassing the logical left brain which wants to control and filter everything”
In my case, I have been using body talk to make the consciousness of my cells my ally in my full recovery so I can walk normally again. I believe I have much work to do because my logical brain remembers only too well what my attending physician said during my first check up after I was discharged from the hospital.

I don’t want to recall it – he said something about hypertension and my blood sugar issues to be with me for life along with my cane.

“Shaman Wisdom, Shaman Healing” says: if a physician gave statistics about (a disease) you tell the person to remember that those numbers apply only to populations, not individuals.” This is similar to Fr. Dari’s and Jean Netario Cruz’ sincere belief in my healing – that I can walk again without a cane.

I pin my hopes on Dr. Page’s statement: about the importance of:” listening to and honoring the body”s consciousness expressed through the various energetic entities and recognizing they are often closer to soul consciousness than our busy little minds.”

Likewise, I should be “Developing a healthy self-esteem without which we are unable to reach out and make such connections whether with ourselves, other people, the Nature Kingdom or with Divine Consciousness.”

The Ho’oponopono videos featuring interviews with spiritual leaders in Hawaii speak a lot about love as an antidote to fear. My books on shamanism stress self-confidence as well.
