Part 2 of 5
Wounded Healer Adelaide Ethics 2
Continued from part 1 . . . (This is a transcript)
The right tick in the box to ask them what to do to help. That’s another question and that’s what you’re sitting here having a think about I hope. We need to go back to what the mothers did, we need to go back to what the grandmothers did. We need to go and investigate what it means to us that that’s and “old wives” tales – yes it is
“don’t sit on the cold concrete”.
“You’ve just washed your hair, no you’re not allowed outside”,
“you can’t go to bed with your wet hair”
Just think of all the things that your mother said as she might not have known why not because her mother said, because her mother said, hello it’s the Mother’s Torah again. That part which is insubstantial which actually glues the whole culture together is we are mammals and we are our children until they are about four. They’re not being breastfed and they’re not in our orbit, somebody else who is getting paid very little is looking after them. Then we’re going to throw them at school, oh yeah so whose dominant reality is going to go into their heads? I say that because I’ve got children born of different ages.
Yes, they are different ages but they were born in different ages. We don’t know what was going on in our mother’s head when she was trying to carry us. Everything may have been going ‘wrong’ in her life because this wasn’t the story that she bought. All of a sudden she’s getting bashed up, all of a sudden he wants you terminated, or just about anything could be going on, and that’s the reality she lived when she was pregnant. That was the wash of hormones that were then fight-flighting whilst you were being made which was encoded with your Jing, which was your Kidney Qi, which is what you are now here with before I talk about the toxins that just came along for the ride.
So we’ve got the physical but there’s way more than the DNA going on here and then we’ve got the – I will call it spiritual for the want of another term, we don’t have a whole bunch of words that are useful on this side of the page. The energy of what was going on was affecting her emotions and her emotions were affecting them. Then we’ve got her beliefs, “I must be a bad girl look what’s happening to me I’m pregnant and I didn’t even have sex – in fact I just had his semen on my leg and how come I’m pregnant I’m still a virgin”, that has happened before and now she’s a ‘bad girl’. Well actually he wasn’t going to let her out of the car until she did that and actually now it’s her fault and now we’ve got a fallen woman, she’s fallen pregnant
All of that rubbish that goes on around the sanctity of human life and the sanctity of human life is not who gets to be killed which is what you’re going to see and all of the writing it’s not who gets to be killed as in euthanasia and are we allowed to abort and all that. The sanctity of human life is our mother and can she be protected enough to bring us forth in a way that optimally we would have been allowed to had our Jing been allowed to unfold the way it was supposed to.
Well the answer is ‘no’ and part of that is we all forgot about the engineering and here we are saying we’re therapists. Come on even the physical people don’t talk about if the uterus is out of balance so is she. If your real help is on the wrong place it can’t do the job. So what are we doing going on about this is a good gynecological point?
So we need to look at different realities of being a mother means different levels of the midwifery care, means different realities of what I was expected to do as a mother. Different realities of what happened in the education process, different realities as to whether or not these kids were exposed to the rubbish going on in other people’s homes because they had TV and I didn’t. Different realities as to whether or not they were going to be awash with all the chemicals that are all of a sudden coming down, filtering down along the vein and all the rest of it, being blown around because Monsanto is allowed to do what they like.
Now we’ve got genetically modified humans because glycine one of our amino acids is similar to glycophosphate (Roundup) so the body takes in the glycophosphate instead of using glycine and so now our collagen doesn’t work properly. Oh but you’ve been using Google as a reference Heather, yes I have. How the gate keepers are going to allow real information to come through is a good question? Who allows things to be published?
So yes definitely Stephanie Seneff might have started off doing something other than what she’s doing now. Good grief that woman’s incredibly intelligent and is directed by something and is doing it, but it’s inconvenient. It’s very inconvenient to find out what Sherry Tenpenny is saying, what a whole bunch of women – and I’m going to talk about the women like poor old Rachel Carson. Nobody liked her talking about DDT and what was going on with the bald eagles. It doesn’t mean it’s not happening it means the person that’s in control doesn’t want that leaked out. More on ethics and her legacy here (CLICK).
Now we’ve got everybody has to go to university otherwise they’re not considered useful. What about the people who are really amazing with their hands? When you want a plumber how much is it going to cost? So the thing about all of this is if we go back towards the left hand side we then start redefining what is ethical and through which circle are we talking about. I think we need to talk about the biological and we need to look at Gaia the planet, our mother. She’s not in a good shape because we keep on raping and pillaging just like we do with women’s bodies, just like we do with anything that is natural. Let’s pretend we’re not natural therapists shall we? Let’s look at the ethics of going ‘we don’t need nutrients; we just need to have chemicals that somebody has got a patent on’.
We don’t have pretend flows that need to happen, we’re going to get more and more shut down what with our armor in and you can look at any of the work of Reich on that from our inability to get out of our own way, so our Liver Qi is stuck, so everything hurts so we move this and this because it hurts.
Look at flows and nutrients, if we were going to go on the different side of the page again we’d be looking at another culprit, we’d be looking at flows and nutrients. Now this doesn’t look like anybody else’s ethics lecture I know, I’m doing it on purpose because some of us just don’t gel with rules particularly well. The rules I’m trying to get us to listen to are our bodies rules because that’s what we’re supposed to be doing helping other people’s flows to flow on every level.
(The possible meaning of us being here as healers).
I go back again to my three circles and my line because if we’re going to ask any questions of our practice we need to go ‘is it safe’? Shall we look at safe? Is it safe for us to actually put a needle in because we haven’t got our APRA accreditation? Is it actually safe for us to do what none of our peers would do? Is it actually safe for us to hug them because the poor things just let loose something that they actually look like they are about two at the moment and they’re going to need a mum? Well it is a bit awkward if you’re a man.
Safe
Well that’s this construct except actually it’s this construct too. So what makes thing safe in this department? Well it’s got to be able to undo seven and eight year cycles, it’s got to be able to go through the cycle of life. Do we have an environment that that can happen in? Not really. So what we’re looking at is the bastardisation of the planet and we’re going to pretend we’re going to diagnose it and we’re going to talk about TCM. “It’s not in this box” and “Heather get out of the naturopathic in here” as I’m told frequently and I’m going right well I think you’ve forgotten that mothers actually rule the world. When you’re so damaged that what’s anybody going to do with you, then you’re going to go home with mum and if you haven’t got a mum then somebody who’s standing in for mum.
A couple of days ago I discovered there was a study done, they’re great things those studies, the study that was done found out – and it’s over 24 years, 93 percent carry-over rate that two mothers are better than one mother. Go and get yourself a lesbian family quickly. OK now why might that be? We go through cycles and they might be in sync and they might not but hey if one of them is feeling remarkably bitchy the other one’s just going to take over. She’s going to go into her own little red tent and might be in the garden like me and there’s still somebody on deck. That’s a lot safer for the kids. Gee, I think we need to actually get a sense of humour about this.
Other times it wasn’t two mothers it was the village of the mothers because the dads were out there killing each other and occasionally they bought back a deer or a sabre tooth tiger or something. The women were out there relating and they were digging holes in the ground and they were planting things and they were finding things and they were the glue that held it all together. The men came back and they hadn’t caught anything and not only that this one’s damaged and that one is dead. Right well we’ve still got to have something to eat, isn’t it good there’s nettles in your garden and you can make nettle soup. Oh no they’re weeds, they were not actually they were food.
So the long and the short of this is we’ve got this classification of good and bad and we’ve got to get a sense of humour about it. We’re at the top of the first world but hey, where did we come from and what kept us going? The mothers and what they knew, the Mothers Torah. OK the Father’s Torah is the Bible, the Father’s Torah is the rules, this is what’s written and you’re only allowed to do. The Mother’s Torah is “oh let me just give you a cuddle: it looks like you’re having a bad day dear:, we’re human. I’m not saying men are bad, I’m saying we’ve got to get a sense of humour about how everybody has been socialised.
Three of my children are men, gosh watching the shutdown of those very sensitive beautiful beings to fit into this society’s version of what a man is has not been fun for this mother. And their fathers have been remarkably broken by their fathers and this what our culture does and this is what we do, this is our middle circle. So can you tell me again what’s safe? Safe is if you are following the rules because if you’re not following the rules bad things will happen. Ha, we have to do our ethics again bad things will happen. Now sure they do, they happen because we’ve been excluded from those who’ve got the power so we’re running an exclusion model. However, we want to things to flow, they’ve come in and they’ve got their bad neck or whatever except they’re missing the bit that says their husband is beating them up.
We have fight or flight. So our fight or flight – what’s that up to? It’s up to something really interesting that we’re stuck in it. We’ve got what I call a moderated panic we can’t, we’re paralysed. Now nothing’s flowing, our gut’s not flowing, our blood is not flowing, our Qi is not flowing, our Shen is definitely not flowing. It isn’t bad enough yet, when it gets bad enough you’ll just walk out leaving the kids behind because that’s what has to happen.
When it gets bad enough there’s going to be a sovereignty issue and who’s going to win? Well I’d like to think that the spark that got you here is going to actually go ‘bing’. Heather what does that word mean? Well you might write down what you think sovereignty is because all of us have got why we’re here and very few us are standing true in that. Because why? Because we’ve been socialised into being civilised, bad things will happen if we open our mouth. They quite often do when I open my mouth because there comes a point where it just comes out and I think some of you might feel the same and I’ll just be watching this. (Inner Censor slips up sometimes).
So when we’re looking at bad things will happen what’s the worst that can happen? You stay stuck. Spoken like a true Aquarian you cannot stay stuck all your life, you can’t do it. Women they get helped along by their monthly cycle, oh let’s pretend we don’t need a cycle. The doctor said it was ‘safe’ to be on the pill and now my daughter is bleeding at 9 and she had horrendous periods so we’re going to put her on the pill. God why don’t we investigate puberty and what happened, because that’s not a seven-year cycle. I’ve done presentations on that and we’re going to stick to let’s ask questions, this is about asking questions.
So it’s Hot Blood, what cause the Blood to be hot? Well she was possibly raped, ok bad things did happen, the Qi isn’t flowing and now we’ve got the Qi not flowing she can’t tell anyone its’ a secret. So now we’re going to have all sorts of things happening because nothing is working and women’s Blood needs to flow because it’s going to fill up and let go and fill up and empty and our fetal palace down there whether we’re ever going to have a baby is making nests as we speak. It’s going to open and shut and open and shut and she’s going to feel as though this is just a curse and yes it is because we do not respect and honor our bleeding.
I went to the least and now I do self-care courses for women because that’s the information our mothers didn’t know, their grandmothers didn’t know it and that’s ridiculous. Now some of us have spent a lifetime reading novels and I can tell you that should you get into anything about Avalon, if you get into anything about any culture we’re going to have those who are just plucked out of the rabble who are sent off with the wise woman, the medicine man or whomever because they are special, they are marked OK, I’d be one of them. Now I had to bring myself up with no mentors but I did, I was mentored by all of these novels and I just got driven to do things, I just had to be somewhere at a certain point and you can probably all relate to that.
When we’re looking at safe is it safe for that sensitive wee child to come through? Yes, because it needs to have that life experience of being that broken to actually have the awareness and ability to rise above to then be able to be the Light in that corner, join the Light in that corner, to join the Light in that corner to become turn the Lights on instead of let’s hide because what will happen? You saw what happened with Mao’s bunch, you saw what happened with Hitler’s bunch, wake up human beings you’re doing it yourselves all over again. “Oh we won’t get childcare payments” – if we don’t kill our kids slow with anti-inflammatory stuff that’s going to – really just what is the biological template?
Really “we’re going to shut you down with a gun in the States”, “we’re going to come along and take the children away” until they are (‘safely’) injected. Why? Whose benefit is this serving because we’re not doing an accountability study? We are not doing is it safe because if we were going to do what I call falsification which is Thomas Kuhn – go ahead Thomas Kuhn and at Thomas Kuhn and his works back in the 1960’s. If you want to prove something true the fastest thing to do is prove it wrong, if you can’t, it must be true.
Well there’s a thought we’ll ask the questions that make it true, we won’t ask the questions that we know are going to make it not true, we’re only going to show the experiments that show what we wanted. We’re going to leave out the 98 percent that showed us something else and we’re going to talk to that one, not to all of them but we’ve couched it in a way that we should have had all of them looking like that.
Well it must be dangerous, we’ll we’ve put so much money into it we’re going to say it’s like this “never mind the consequences” and if we tell everybody at gunpoint almost that they have to do this or else they’re going to actually go what if something bad happens? Yeah it is, you’ve lost your sovereignty, you’re not allowing the blueprint to manifest as it should. Oh dear somebody might die, yeah they do all the time it’s called survival of the fittest. That’s why there is a very, very unethical business going on at the moment and you’re going to get really upset some of you. I’m here poking the bear because I’m really upset because I’ve been doing this longer than any of you.
There it’s out there and let’s just follow it off with another word. What the hell does everybody think I do, in calling what the Mao doctors think is safe? Because all the research says it isn’t. Go and look at the work from Henci Goer, Henci Goer wrote a book that didn’t get any traction so she wrote another book. This is back in 1994, yes it’s old Heather the research needs to be redone, no it doesn’t she was talking to the physical. She wrote a book called ‘The Thinking Woman’s Guide to Better Birth’ (CLICK) and a third of it is research citations.
She then wrote ‘Obstetric Myths Versus Research Realities’ (CLICK) and if you went and got them or just went onto her site and looked at the articles and went through everything she’s doing you would see that everything that is happening in the obstetric hospital near you is unethical because it is not backed up by research. It is not following the bonding that needs to happen between mum and baby, the only safe birth – let me take you back along my line which is on the other side half of the impact that’s ever going to happen to that being has happened by the time it is two, that’s mum.
By the time it’s 10 it’s too late, that’s mum. Her version of life is yours whether you like it or not, what are we doing having people making money in the middle of that? Stop it, it’s not good enough, it’s not ethical because what goes on is I, having done this longer than anybody else can see the effects of your actions. Stop it.
Stop looking at those people who have written books ‘for’ us, scientists who’ve got degrees, who’ve got qualifications in orthodox medicine – so they were asked to write a TCM book. Stop it, go and ask cultures that have women never die in birth like the Belizeans. They looked after her sacrum, they were eating real food, they were working their bodies, they knew that herbs to take for what. Zero maternal mortality, those older midwives had zero formal education, they had life experience and they – were taught by those who knew. This is not good enough. It’s also not good enough that we’ve forgotten about prayer and I am not religious.
Shall we take you back to placebo (CLICK)?
We’ve got ‘the pill’. The pill is standing if for every procedure that somebody who’s being paid to administer says you need, it’s an important point. We could have the embodied moral experience including the laying on of hands, expressions of kindness, the acts of decency, commitment to being present. Are you in fact even present in that room when the person is there? Have you cleared yourself, have you cleared the room? It is safe for that person with everything that they’ve got going on to actually be in your orbit today because you’ve just discovered something that you’re really pissed off but you have to make money because the mortgage is due and blah, blah, blah.
Now some of us are a bit more attuned to this and have the ‘cosmic receptionist’ and we have got the ethics and the integrity to stop everything and we think we can go through the motions then it will be stopped for us. You can lose 10 patients in a day like that, you’ve had an argument with your husband I’ve had it happen. They are coming back – but the car broke down, they just don’t feel like it because somebody said something and they get upset. It’s not about you but it is about you, we have a sphere of influence. So if we’re going to pretend that none of this matters then we going to think you silly old bat, yes they killed the witches, I know because it was too true and it was inconvenient.
Could you go and look up hand-washing, just go and look up what happened about hand-washing. Do you know what happened about hand-washing? I’m positive you don’t and it’s not about [Ignaz Semmelweiss that were in 1847 – he finally went mad and died in Bedlam. That poor lad had worked out independently of the other several bright men that kept on being shut up. This is just beyond a joke, it’s beyond a joke the men and their gangs. You’re in my gang and they aren’t.
He’s discovered none of his women in birthing are dying of puerperal fever because he’s making everybody wash their hands with carbolic. However, in every other medical establishment best practice got their black hats on and up to a third of the women are dying in birth because they are discovering what runs the body, that would be the cadavers. That would be that we get money from the long dead cadavers coming along in a wheel barrow and using the same instruments, not even washing them under the tap because they don’t have taps and using them inside the women who then dies in a horrendous explosion of the body. What about all of those other children, she had who are now motherless without any form of anything? Oh well, the streets of London.
I mean look really why did we not leave the midwives in charge? They weren’t being so damn stupid. Ah but they were called ‘drunk’ and they were called all sorts of witches and if they weren’t killed they were drummed out of town because they were doing stuff. Yeah, they were they were helping people when they were dying, they were laying out the dead, they were helping people when they were being born and they had too much control. We (men) want control, we’re now not killing each other so much, we’re not dying so much in the fields because a horse fell on us or whatever, we need a job so let’s take over what they do and we’re going to make it ours and let’s do that.
That’s what’s happened to your medicine and so what we’re doing here is playing the game. We’ve stopped playing the game this is called we have to ethics, right we’re doing ethics. Is it ethical to not look at the bottom circle because it’s not safe to be doing what we’re doing? When we come in we have to have a mother who wants to have us, we have to have a mother who loves us because she can’t not because she felt us come out.
Go and look at any of the work of Dr Michel Odent. I just don’t know what’s gotten into people, well I do I think those who’ve never bled or birthed can run the show. You need to go look at Dr Michel Odent and everything he has written. It’s getting on a bit I know, 20 odd ideas ago he put a site up called the Primal Research Institute and he followed it up with the womb ecology site and he’s got to know the future of suicide, he can predict by looking at the birth trauma somebody got what sort of suicide they’ll do. Then he wrote also on vaccination.
Is it ethical to do what we’re doing to the young babies at the junction of when they’re going to start breathing? No, let me count the ways. I’m a little bit irked by what everybody things is OK because so and so said, that’s their opinion. If you have a big deal about citing whoever it is and what date they wrote that book who gives a damn one of them that’s their opinion. Is it biologically sustainable? More than likely not, it’s making money though. Is it biologically sustainable? That is the ethical question that you all need to be asking in your practice and in your lives and in your kitchens. Why aren’t you growing your food? Is it biologically sustainable because if it tells you acupuncture sure as hell isn’t, just saying. Anyway when we come up here it will pay your mortgage, it will pay for that swanky car you’ve got out there I get it, is it biologically sustainable is never asked.
So now I’m going to go to is it primal experience? Heather that sounds a bit interesting, it is. I have had one child that I felt come out, I’m here to tell you it’s one hell of a difference. You might want to go get some Rescue Remedy because you were born to, you might want to take another drink of water, take a deep breath because this is where we get into the guts of it. All Sickness Is Homesickness by Dianne Connelly. Yes, I know she’s a five element practitioner, look this is really women’s business, I don’t know that I’ve mentioned many men except for my two masters here and they were in coming from their hearts. I’m seeing them, the woman’s voice gone. Where’s her story? It’s not there except that’s our mother, how ethical is it for us to write the women out? It isn’t really because that’s where we come from.
When we have a primal experience it is there in all of it’s glory and that means what does it mean to me when? The original midwives were with women; they were women they had felt they know what it means to be tattered around in the breeze for the rest of our lives and we need to fix it. If you want to get that material to rip you, you do and then it does. Let’s do an episiotomy, you fools you obviously haven’t done much in the way of seam stressing. You get the drift it may or may or may not tear, hey Miss Hortence who had helped several thousand women birth in Belize had never seen a rip or a tear. What are we thinking we’re doing? We’re designed to open and shut, what’s all this feel up? Well somebody is making money from it. C-section rate, OK the men are in charge and they have trained the women to think like them otherwise they are out, they are not in their gang.
Which one of those women who are obstetricians has not been outed and done all sorts of terrible things to? The only way she can be there is to have that level of contamination with her. This is not OK, who’s the expert in birthing? The person who is carrying the baby, she’s not allowed to think it through. She will think it through and I have amazing footage I’ve shown my patients when they were quite pregnant, I sit them down and they watch one of an elephant birthing and the baby doesn’t breathe and that’s called Riski Business. It’s in one of the Balinese zoos so you can find it, it’s 5 minutes and I will tell you the baby is ok at the end because it doesn’t look like the baby is going to be OK. Eventually mum gives it a big kick and it doesn’t do anything so then she’s trumpeting, she’s freaked out because this kid needs to be breathing and it’s just lying there inert. Then she gets her trunk and wraps it around it and she dumps it and the kid starts breathing, thank god. So now she’s kicking it, it’s got to get up because there could be lions.
It’s biological, you’ve got to have mum functional and if you don’t have mum functional how’s she going to stop the new boyfriend raping that kid at 10? It’s not is she, she’s not there and she’s “out to lunch”, she’s not connected. If we are not connected – I’m sorry I’m only connected to one of because that’s because I only felt one of them come out. I know the difference and I’m here to tell you it’s no fun mothering when you don’t have that primal connection because that’s it. You’ve got a social connection but I’m talking about the primal experience, it has to be embedded the physical. It ain’t, most women they’re going to sign out for that thanks I’ll have the sun room, yeah good let’s do that let’s do that and stuff them up. You don’t even know if the kid is in the right position, oh head down the midwife says it’s fine, no it’s not it’s going to be on the left hand side if we’re white. Somalian women can probably only do it from the OP but we have to be able to do it from over there. Let’s put them all on their back, how ethical is that?
Just if you’re a woman go and stand up for a minute. I don’t know if you’re going to see my hands move but I’m on my sacrum and I’m on my pubic bone and I go backwards. So what you think? Then I go forwards. Are my hands moving because I can feel them move, they are moving aren’t they. You open 30 percent by going forward. How ethical is it to have women lying on their backs when they’re in labour and when birthing? It’s a good question, some man thought it was a good idea because if they were a woman and they had birthed they wouldn’t have it there because that was shutting it down and we actually need it to be safe for the baby to come out.
We need to start asking biological questions rather than social questions because social ones are getting us into a big pickle, it’s called is it is “safe”, will we get shut down, are they going to fine us, blah, blah blah. Excuse me there’s bigger things at stake here – which baby likes its mum these days? Has to behave itself otherwise it will get killed because they are a damn nuisance, I’m saying this as a mother. So if we’re not bonded from when we need to be bonded we’re going to have a different response which includes I don’t like being a mum I want to get back into my career, I can put it in childcare. Oh – look at that I can’t breastfeed oh dear never mind when we go over here. Is it ethical to not allow women the ability to birth? No because then they can’t breastfeed. Oh let’s take over the immunity process by making money from it, let’s shut everybody down.
I’m going to go back to Belize again they had an amazing system of herbs and everybody knew what to do. So when you became a teenager as a girl, I don’t know what they did with men because I’m doing women’s business here but they must have done something with the boys. The women had to get themselves on to the coast and where is Belize Heather? Well I didn’t know either and I’m a terrible drawer so if I say I do this I don’t have a map of the world. Here’s South America, here’s North America and here we have a little bit of a snippet down here which is Mexico and then we’ve got this bit here. So here’s South America and at the top of South America that goes out like that there’s Belize which is bordered by Guatemala on two sides and probably Mexico down the bottom and if you go on a bit further you’ll get to Suriname.
So it goes down there, it’s at the top so it’s in the Caribbean area and there’s the Yukaton peninsula and it’s quite a way walking, there’s panthers, there’s all sorts of snaked. I discovered there are 89 species of snakes in Belize and 81 of them are venomous. I was not really happy, I put it out there just don’t have me run into a snake, I’m a kiwi. So I’m going along at dusk and a small snake falls onto the path. Chances are good it’s NOT an anaconda, it’s little, but it’s going to be pissed off because it’s fallen down and I’m going really? I can’t go down there I’m going down to that lovely little place we’re staying with no electricity. So I’m backing up there going oh yeah. I haven’t got a light and what’s that snake going to do because you need to piss off mate I’ve got to step over you. Thankfully someone came along the path and she had a light and thankfully this one disappeared and I’m thinking “you can go first”.
Anyway in Belize you’re going to run into mischief pretty quickly so everybody as kids knew what to do otherwise they’d be dead, it’s the quick or the dead. Oh no here we don’t need to worry about that, yeah but in other places and in other times we have been remarkably bright, we haven’t been staring at screens all day going ‘I don’t want that’ we’ve actually been out there helping the food happen otherwise we won’t be eating. Is it ethical to not have children understand where food comes from? There’s another question, is it ethical for people to think it’s OK to be doing what they’re doing and call it food? It’s not actually.
So getting back to the Belizean story there you go you’ve got to somehow get yourself to the coast to a particular place in the coast where you’re going to be picked up by that canoe. Shades of the ‘Mists of Avalon’ and there’s one family of men who are the only family who are allowed to canoe the women to Cuzemel which is now where everybody goes off and does their skin diving. Back then it was the women’s island and that’s where the women met, shades of all sorts of other myths in the world that this might only have happened between 600 and 800 AD or whenever it was before the Aztecs came and ripped out the living hearts and all of that.
This is what some cultures have done for their women which is actually for their whole lives, which is actually is it ethical to not be a feminist? We are the ones who grow the next crop of people. So then we have we’ve magicked ourselves onto the beach, we’ve bled a couple of times and now we’re allowed to, this is our initiation we’ve got ourselves and we’ve had to provide food for ourselves and get their safety. That’s an initiation in itself and here we are we haven’t’ got everybody ‘have you got enough bus money’, nope we’ve ended up there and there we are on the canoe. He’s not allowed to set food on the island so we have to be able to swim otherwise we’re not going to be able to get onto the island and there we are for forty days, the magic number.
There we are we’ve had at least one period and on the island of Cuzemel we’re going to be taught how to be a woman, how to bleed, how to have sex, what to do for contraception, what to do when we’re pregnant etc. All of the herbs, all of the everything, all of the massage or whatever the midwives are there, whatever. Right that’s where everybody gets trained, that’s women’s business, it keeps the culture going and the men don’t kill each other. They take slaves, they get killed by the panthers and the snakes in the forest and so forth but the women are the ones who don’t die in childbirth, see magic point they don’t die because they’ve been taught what to do. Then they turn around and come back again, make it home, get married, she’s getting a bit snarky, he’s probably going to say “my sister used to go and get one of those plants over there that looked like that” and do whatever because he’d remember and if she’s forgotten somebody would tell her.
If terrible things have happened to her she can always go and say stuff this and go off to Cuzemel or if she’s done her time – I’m not a crone yet I’m a queen. When she’s done the time she can go back there and do what I’m doing here which is going could we please pay attention, women are the story holders and they are the ones that glue us together and they are the ones that have the ethics of life. We’ve got the ethics of the men the science and the money and the power and we’ve got the ethics of life. I’m saying this before we take a break because I’ve got a daughter who is massively brain injured and is 30 years old and in her own nappies. I don’t think it’s very ethical that she’s still on the planet and I probably love her more than anybody else in the world.
I think I’m quite qualified to give this conversation and if you haven’t looked at my neurological challenges presentation – please do because later on we’re going to be doing this whole talk is going to be about pain and suffering. Where does that come from? Disconnection from our mind to our uterus, disconnection from here and not in accordance with what we’re here to do. We’re not standing true, we do not have sovereignty, we have allowed other people to take parts of ourselves, we have carried parts of other people, we have got entities from heaven knows what.
This is where I come back to prayer and finishing Don Elijio Panti here we go he’s not Doctor Shen now and I’ve never met him, he died. Rosita Arvigo was his apprentice and I’m doing the Arvigo stuff in here because you don’t know about it and you need to. He prayed, he spent the whole time praying and hello that’s on that side of the page. Ok so we’re going to go out in a minute and copal each other, we’re not doing it here because we’ve got smoke detectors but you might go onto my site Heathersays.com and look over self-care, down there is the spiritual section and find out about it. There is this thing called ‘We have to clear ourselves’ because we are not a physical vehicle, we are in the physical vehicle.
We are in the physical vehicle, we have auras and nadis and chakras and goodness knows what light bodies and sort of things and they get hooked into other people’s morass and we pick up a lot of other people’s stuff. Was there an aboriginal war over there on the beach and are some of us picking up the fragments of what was left? Did somebody die in that house and they’ve sold it without telling you and nobody has cleared it? Heck is there a really bad ley line running through here? Well that’s this stuff, witchy business, no it’s Qi.
We forgot we’re doing Qi medicine and could you have a look at the Shaolin Monks. There’s a book called ‘Encounters with Qi by David Eisenberg, he wrote it in the 80s. He was with Nixon’s party going through China for the first time and they had translators and they had people keeping them out of things they weren’t allowed to look at. He saw a Qi master manipulating the needle from here, there’s the needle. What do we think we’re doing? We’re going to validate it and we’re going to talk about Shen needles are we? It’s Qi medicine.
Here is the visuals that go with the next section (we thought we had the whole lot filmed sorry – so you lose all my drawings .
In the second segment we’re going to talk about pain. We’re going to talk about pain because when I started as an acupuncture consultant my patients all had pain otherwise they weren’t coming to see me. So when we go back to the late 1970s it was not where we’re living now. Then specialists used to shake people’s hand and wish them well and tell them to get their affairs in order for just about everything. I had a whole clinic full of people with dodgy bodies because they had really bad rheumatoid arthritis and let’s take a little walk back through how these people were made because it’s a bit important and I’m the gardener who’s also the mother. So if we go here’s another line we’re going to draw on the page here and here we go we’ve got the now that we see as being the ever present now and that’s the only one that we’ve ever had until 2020 but we’re not there.
I’ll go backwards so here we are around about here and here we have 2010 and here we have 2000 and 1990, 1980, there’s 1970 and it connects. So we’re going to go back that way and it’s very interesting for those who get a bit pedantic about things looking right, that would be me. 1950, 1940, 1930, 1920, 1910, 1900 back that way. Then I’m just for the hell of it going to do something else, 1890, 1880, 1870, 1860 and why am I doing this? Because we are living the reality that these people – oh look at that New Zealand was apparently discovered then by the white man, everybody else had been minding their own business there for quite some time. At least it wasn’t terra nullis or whatever they called it.
I’m going to say just for the record I was born in 55, my mother was born in 25, her mother was born in 1893 and her mother would have been born about 1870 because she was the eldest and they were probably married in their early 20s and so her mother same again was probably married about here. So this me, my mother, my grandmother, my great grandmother, my great-great grandmother, you can do the same on the page for yourself because the programs that those who bore us and grew us and sent us off on our way and tended our wounds and kissed it better was all back then. So we’ve got now and we’re going forward to the great new brave new world thinking that this is all there ever was except the current now has been rather dependent on what made us.
Here we have again the conception, the birth, the 10 years and the death of this physical vehicle. What’s the thing that’s most affecting a person to want to change? It’s going to be pain. You know they’re getting relatively comfortable in things getting stuck and more and more constrained and more and more problems until one day if you ask people when did that period pain start it wasn’t this morning. When did that sore neck first happen? Well it’s a reigniting of something that might have happened 71 years ago but here they are now because today it crossed a line and so now that concerns the pain.
The pain that they’ve got is that they can’t whatever – and it doesn’t feel comfortable enough for them to be able to carry on with what they’ve got and so the patients that I used to have coming in had given up on every damn thing and as a last resort they were going to the local acupuncturist. I looked about 15 or 16 when I was in my early 20’s when I was doing this so of course they were the same age as my great grandmother probably some of them because I had people in their 80s and 90s as a matter of course.
Our elders hold the keys to our future
