Service: The Key to Fulfillment, Contentment and Peace.

Was it Einstein who said those who are truly happy are those who have found a way to serve.

 

As a Laughter Yoga Teacher, I have been leading Laughter Yoga sessions for over six years now. Every time, I get a wonderful sense of peace, delight and contentment.

 

I believe it is not just my laughing, but helping others to access their inner childlike playfulness and delight. To see the joy in their faces.

 

Now, I am learning the art of doing less and letting myself be led.

 

What I am being led to is to use Laughter Yoga to help relieve Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or PTSD.

 

 

If you have friends or relations in the Victoria area who may have PTSD or related conditions, please let them know about this pilot program. As you will read in the article, this shows great promise. Not for all, I expect and that is why there are claims being made.

PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Stress, Worry:

Lifted, Healed, Gone, Banished…

in One Hour!

 

The scene is the Inner Warriors Yoga studio in Esquimalt, a suburb of Victoria, BC, Canada.

 

It is Spring of 2014.

 

Half a dozen military folks from the nearby naval base, some with PTSD, are doing Laughter Yoga.

 

My name is Matti Anttila and as a Certified Laughter Yoga Teacher, I am leading this session. Everyone seems to be having fun.

 

Kim, who is running a six week program for critical task personnel to help relieve PTSD had asked me to come in and lead a Laughter Yoga class for an hour as part of her program.

 

The “Invisibly Wounded”

 

She cautioned me to be a little slower and not be too dramatic in my movements so as not to trigger anything.

 

I know little about PTSD, just what I have read and how it can make life a living hell for those who have served the country and now are the “invisibly wounded.”

 

Kim is trying to make a difference in their lives and I am honoured to be asked to assist.

 

I am moved by how willing everyone is to jump in do these somewhat silly and crazy looking laughter exercises.

 

How Laughter Yoga Was Born

 

Laughter Yoga is the brainchild of an Indian medical doctor, Dr. Madan Kataria. He was preparing a paper on “Laughter is the Best Medicine” and found a wealth of scientific studies showing it had many health benefits.

 

So, he said if this is so good, why don’t we do it. In 1995, he along with four others started laughing a park in Mumbai, India. From that humble beginning, Laughter Yoga has grown to thousands of Laughter Yoga clubs not only in India, but around the world.

 

Laughter Yoga Transforms Lives

 

I took my training to be certified as a teacher in the summer of 2009 with Dr. Kataria.

 

Since then, my life has been transformed. My inner joy became more and more accessible and I have seen the same happen for countless others who have come to our club in Victoria over the intervening years.

 

In fact, Laughter Yoga caused me to deepen my connection to joy by writing a manual on joy. (More on that manual at the bottom of this letter)

 

PTSD Folks “Get” Laughter Yoga

 

As we continue our Laughter Yoga session, I can see to my delight that they “get it.” They are having fun like little kids.

 

We do the “Oh no, I made a mistake laughter.” This is where we release the mistake, our judgements about how bad we are for making a mistake, learn from it and move on.

 

We do “Red Light, Green Light” pretending to get stuck at red lights and laughing about it.

 

We pretend to hear a joke on our pretend cell phones, laugh at it and share it with others.

 

Grounding Sounding

 

A host of other exercises follows and then a laughter meditation and what I call “Grounding Sounding.”

 

This is a short series of sounds that allows integration of some of the bodily learning and unlearning and prepares us for re-entering the “regular” world after our child-like playfulness session.

 

After almost an hour of laughing, we sit up in a circle, I ask: “Questions, Comments, observations?”

 

Happy…and Confused!

 

One guy share how he never lets on, even to his family, how much stress and anxiety he is living with every moment. He puts on a brave face.

 

Now, after just one hour of Laughter Yoga, he tells us he feels happy for the first time he can remember. “And I’m confused.”

 

I’m not sure I understand what he means by being confused about feeling happiness. But I don’t have a chance to ask.

 

The gal next to him says: “I know exactly what you mean. I’m happy for the first time and I’m confused too.”

 

I knew how Laughter Yoga had made a positive difference in my own life and in the lives of other Laughter Yoga club members.

 

I was not prepared to see how quickly it could change the state of some of those who have the scourge of PTSD.

 

Kim followed up with another six week session in the fall of 2014 and again, we had positive results with the one hour Laughter Yoga session.

 

“If this is so good, why don’t we do it?”

 

That phrase from my Laughter Guru, Dr. Kataria bounces around in my head. He started with five people laughing in a park and it has created a world wide movement.

 

In fact, his mission has grown to “World Peace Through Laughter.” I am honoured and feel very much privileged to play my small part.

 

Pilot Program to Relieve PTSD, Depression, Anxiety, Worry, Fear and Stress

 

Now, Dr. Kataria’s inspiration leads me to create a pilot program to use Laughter Yoga to relieve PTSD. This program is for those who Kim calls “Critical Task” workers.

 

For “Critical Task” Workers

 

These could include military with PTSD, but also ambulance, fire and police, who also experience their share of trauma.

 

The program starts:

 

Thursday, February 12th for 6 weeks through March 19th.

 

If you know of someone who has PTSD, suffers from anxiety, depression, worry, fear and/or stress, let them know. Please. Pass this information on to them.

 

Limited Space: Pre-register

 

There is limited space. It is a small yoga studio, after all. So, pre-registration is necessary.

 

No Set Fee. Donations Accepted.

 

As this is a pilot program, there is no set fee. We will accept donations to help with our costs, but, and this is important:

Don’t let money hold you back from your healing.

If you are ready to sign up, please email Kim directly innerwarriors@gmail.com

 

Another Success Story

 

Jane (not her real name) who healed a long standing case of PTSD from childhood sexual abuse.

“…Michael Cortina, director of outpatient services at the Regional Mental Health Center in Merrillville, Indiana, shows that PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) can be healed with laughter. He used it successfully to help Jane who is in her 30s…”It is absolutely revolutionary, and eliminates the negative effect and emotional distress of that trauma in one session”, said Cortina. – from Laughter Yoga International website article

“One Session Eliminated the Negative Effect and Emotional Distress of That Trauma”

“…Jane…constantly suffered from nightmares. Every night before she went to sleep, she checked all the closets, locked every door and made sure a hammer and can of mace were near her bed, giving her the peace of mind to doze off. But sleep only led to more nightmares. ‘I was basically living in my own personal hell,’ she said. As a child no therapy helped her till later in life when she went to Cortina and tried his therapy.”

If you are not yet ready, I invite you to keep this information handy. When this program is complete, we are expecting to start another session later.

Question: “If you had success in one session, why is it necessary to have six sessions?”

Answer: Keep in mind that, while we had participants who got benefits, we did not do follow up on how lasting the benefits may or may not have been. This pilot program should address that and allow for follow up and feedback.

Further, we will use other modalities, tools and techniques over the six week period. These should help to support and “anchor” the long term benefits.

Love and Laughter,

At the end of our Laughter Yoga sessions, we have a short period of “Grounding Sounding.” We sigh and say “AAAAH” a few times. This combined with some simple visualizations helps to get grounded again after the energetic laughing session.

 

Two nights ago, it was quite profound. One of our participants commented how she felt it was a deep healing.

 

I felt the same and am so grateful to have Laughter Yoga in my life.

 

Here is another perspective on healing with Laughter.

Good News for all us “sitters.”

 

“Sitting is the new smoking.” That is the theme of some NASA researcher you have read about in MASTERY NEWSLETTER.

 

In fact, a Special Report you will have received indicates that prolonged sitting is so bad that no amount or type of exercise can counteract it.

 

Now comes new research giving us hope of a better future…for all of us who spend too much time sitting, your faithful scribe included.

 

This comes from ScienceAlert.com

 

Three short walks can reverse the damage of three hours of sitting.

 

Basically these Indiana researchers found that by taking three slow, five-minute walks, we can actually reverse the damage to our arteries caused by three hours of sitting down.

 

The good news details here:

http://www.sciencealert.com/news/20141109-26159.html

 

With all the turmoil in the world, a bit of good news can be a welcome change for the new year, yes?

 

I hope your 2015 is off to a great start.

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Laughter Yoga with Doctors

 

Saturday, I had the honour and privilege to lead a Laughter Yoga session with a group of Complementary and Integrative Physicians at one of their regular meetings here in Victoria.

 

http://victorialaughteryogaclub.wordpress.com/2014/12/10/laughter-yoga-with-doctors-victoria-laughter-news-december-10-2014-also-laughter-yoga-is-the-real-thing-dr-andrew-weil-laughter-hypnosis/

 

 

Ten doctors dove right in and enjoyed it tremendously. They also were kind enough to share their experiences with me. See their feedback here:

December Already? Wait, I’m not ready. How did this happen?

 

Reviewing the year, I have to thank one and all. So much to be grateful for.

 

Laughter Yoga has been front and centre. Our regular sessions provide so much wonderful benefit. Laughter eases the tensions and stresses of daily life. Specifically, I continuously find that remembering to laugh for 10-15 minutes daily helps to set up the day and keep a smile on my face.

 

Laughter produces the feel good hormones like the endorphins. Smiling does the same.

 

It is a great lesson to know that I can smile internally no matter what is happening. That inner smile produces a sense of calm and empowerment that allows me to do my work (and play) more effectively. In fact, it helps to blur the line between work and play and THAT is fantastic!

 

The challenge is remembering to smile. We can do it ALL THE TIME. Do I? No, I am still working on it. I now have a little sticky note on my computer with a smiley face and the word “smile” to remind me. Making progress. 🙂

 

Another Certified Laughter Yoga Leader training took place this past weekend. What a joy to share this wonderful training. I am inspired by our participants and by the process of passing on this valuable information.

 

This Friday, I will lead a Qi Breath Playshop. (You are welcome if you find yourself in Victoria this Friday night)

 

This year also, I was invited to lead a Laughter Yoga Session as part of a six week therapeutic yoga program. Both times, it was well received. After the spring session, two military folks who have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) shared how they felt happy for the first time that they can remember. They also shared that they were confused by that.

 

There is so much work to be done with our veterans who have PTSD. My heart goes out to them as I can’t even imagine the horror they may live with daily.

 

A recent article was posted in the Laughter Yoga Professional Zone where Laughter Yoga Leaders from around the world share ideas.

 

This article indicated that one session of Laughter Yoga with an individual with PTSD was able to help them dramatically.

 

I will be exploring how I can contribute positively using my Laughter Yoga experience.

 

The Toastmasters organization has enhanced my life since February this year.

 

My first ten talks are under my belt and I now have my Competent Communicator ranking.

 

I did not think I would enjoy Toastmasters so much. One of the reasons is because of the positive and supportive atmosphere.

 

That support from other Toastmasters really helps to embolden and encourage our path to leadership.

 

Keenly looking forward to another delightful Christmas and holiday season.

 

May your season be full of joy, love, happiness, laughter and smiles. Love you all.

 

 

Matti

Laughter and Illness

 

What a thrill ride I am having. Currently under the influence of some bugs. They are helping me to get in touch with and begin clearing out some crud from my system.

 

(Read online: http://joyenergyandhealth.com/2014/11/26/laughter-and-illness-mastery-newsletter-update-nov-26-2014/)

 

That is the way my herbal teacher/master Dr. Terry Willard taught me to think about flus and colds. It is the system (body/mind/spirit/emotions) cleansing itself of accumulated layers of “stuff.”

 

This could include toxins I have ingested in food, chlorine from my shower, pollution in the air I breathe and even toxic emotions from folks around me or from ancestral DNA. Whatever. The source is not so keenly important. I don’t need to invest huge amounts of time and energy to uncover abuse in my past or trauma from accidents (I did fall on my head on some cement during Aikido practice some decades ago, but that hasn’t affected me in any way… in any way… in any way… in any way…[smack]). 🙂

 

All that I need is to take the time to heal. Sometimes that is all we need is just time. Yes, some medicines may help the process (garlic, cayenne, lemon and a host of other goodies is what I am doing.)

 

As laughter is a daily practice for me, I chose to continue. It never fails to uplift me. Staying positive and not succumbing to negative feelings can be great for the healing process.

 

Another great tool is smiling. While that may seem like the last thing one may feel like doing when “under the weather,” it may be one of the most powerful healing tools in our arsenal.

 

This bout with these bugs comes at a time when I had just committed to smiling more. What a coincidence.

Release, release, my Tai Chi master repeated.

 

Slowly, slowly, it starts to resonate, what he meant.

 

Softness conquers hardness. Yin overcomes Yang. The female principle, the yielding, is superior to the male principle.

 

Both are essential. Yet we have somehow become addicted to one more than the other.

 

How to break that addiction? The addiction to competition, to aggression and the resulting conflict, violence and war.

 

How to nourish the Yin principle? How to balance the Yin and Yang so that we have the best qualities of each?

 

Is it not much the same as the acid/alkaline balance in the body. Many may be too acidic.

 

Some have realized that and gone overboard toward the alkaline. There is a condition, I am told, called alkalosis. This is where an individual’s body is too alkaline.

 

We tend to be extremists…one end of the spectrum or the other.

 

In the same way, do we not need to guard against going overboard toward the Yin?

 

Balance, balance, toujours balance.

 

So, how do we do it?

 

We will be exploring this in my Qi Breath Playshop, Friday November 21st here in Victoria. Details:

http://joyenergyandhealth.com/2014/11/03/2002/

 

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Are You a Man Who Makes Frequent Bathroom Trips?

 

Two weeks of a herbal tea has helped me.

 

Bell LifeStyle Products had “Prostate Ezee Flow Tea #4A” on the shelf at my local health store.

 

I had been getting some relief from other supplement combinations, but this one caught my eye because of the bold print: MUST HELP OR MONEY REFUNDED.

 

Well, what do I have to lose, I thought.

 

They say give it two weeks and sure enough, two weeks later, I slept through the night. Heaven is 6 straight hours without a bathroom trip!

 

It is early days, of course, but I just have to share this now in case you or a loved one is suffering. My case had been bad enough that 2, 3 and sometimes 4 times a night was the regular way of things.

 

Bags develop under the eyes as well as tiredness.

 

Time will tell if this is lasting relief, but so far, I cannot in all good conscience ask for a refund on their guarantee. AND I just have to share this in the hopes that others can relieve their own suffering.

 

Perhaps it may be true what Dr. Abram Hoffer said: “For the past 50 years I have been demonstrating that the use of natural nutritional treatment is and must be the most effective form of medicine and that when it is not used and the profession depends solely on the use of toxic drugs the results are abysmal.”

 

They have a host of other products from headache relief to acid reflux, blood pressure, stop smoking, even hearing loss. (Must remember to try that one!)

(I get no compensation for this, by the way)

 

 

Love and Laughter,

 

Matti

Leading Researcher discovers how losing essential Gut Flora can devastate your health.

What’s Missing in Your Gut?

 

A Special Report on Missing Microbes

 

How Overuse of Antibiotics is Fueling Modern Plagues

 

Do You Know Anyone Who Has Any Of These Conditions?

Obesity, Childhood Diabetes, Asthma, Hay Fever, Food Allergies, Esophageal Reflux…Cancer, Celiac Disease, Crohn’s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Autism, Eczema?

 

Dr. Martin Blaser has studied the role of bacteria in our lives for more than thirty years.

 

(He is the director of the Human Microbiome Program at New York University, served as Chair of Medicine at NYU and is the President of the Infectious Diseases Society of America and has had major advisory roles at the National Institute of Health. He has had more than a hundred media appearances, CNN, BBC, NPR, The Today Show, Good Morning America to list a few.)

 

His 2014 book Missing Microbes sounds the alarm about the overuse of antibiotics.

 

Obesity Epidemic Caused by Missing Microbes in Our Bodies?

 

His research tells us that the modern plagues may be a direct result. This includes the obesity epidemic.

 

“In 1990, about 12 percent of Americans were obese. By 2010, the national average was about 30 percent…as of 2008, according to the World Health Organization (WHO), 1.5 billion adults were overweight; of these, over 200 million men and 300 million women qualified as obese. Many of these people live in developing countries that we associate more with famine than with overeating.”

 

Personally, I have noticed this. When I visited my home country of Finland in 1978 and 1982, there were few grossly overweight people. This has changed now. In my most recent trips over the last few years, I see many overweight and obese people on the street. One can’t help but notice the difference now.

 

Overeating Can’t Explain it All

 

“…high caloric intake, while definitely not helpful, is not sufficient to explain the distribution or course of the worldwide obesity epidemic.”

 

Until reading this book, I had named High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) as the culprit. It is in way too many foods and has a unique quality: it turns off the “satiety switch.” In other words, if you eat food with HFCS in it, you never feel satisfied and may continue to eat way more than is healthy.

 

I still think this is a factor, but Dr. Blaser has uncovered another far more insidious cause for “…this accumulation of body fat that has been accelerating not over the course of a few centuries, but in a mere two decades.”

 

Do You Know Anyone Who Has Any Of These “Modern Plagues?”

 

“…obesity, childhood diabetes, asthma, hay fever, food allergies, esophageal reflux…cancer, celiac disease, Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, autism, eczema.”?

 

Let’s explore some of these to get more of a handle on what’s going on all around us.

 

More Than Five Fold Increase in Diabetes

 

“In Finland, where record keeping is meticulous, the incidence (of type 1 diabetes) has risen 550 percent since 1950…the average age of diagnosis used to be about nine. Now it is around six, and some children are becoming diabetic when they are three.”

 

Asthma Cases Increasing

 

“One in twelve people…had asthma in 2009, compared with one in fourteen a decade earlier.”

 

Allergies Rampant

 

“Food allergies are everywhere…milk, eggs, soy, fish, fruits—you name it, someone is allergic to it. Celiac disease…is rampant. Ten percent of children suffer from hay fever…In industrialized nations, the number of kids with eczema has tripled in the past thirty years.

 

These disorders suggest that our children are experiencing immune dysfunction never seen before, as well as conditions such as autism…”

 

Adults Not Escaping

 

“Nor are adults escaping…The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease, including Crohn’s and ulcerative colitis, is rising, wherever we look.”

 

“Could there be one underlying cause fueling all these parallel increases?”

 

Our “Friendly Bacteria” Are Under Attack

 

The degradation of our microbiomes (healthy community of beneficial bacteria in the body) may be responsible for the surging rates of these and many other chronic health problems.

 

Blaser says: “We’re really assaulting our microbiome… Right now, everyone is giving antibiotics, thinking they are ‘free.’ Once there is evidence that they have costs, the calculation begins to change.”

 

Real Cause of Ulcers? Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)

 

Here is an example you may have heard of. An Australian doctor, Barry Marshall, discovered that ulcers were caused by Helicobacter pylori. It took years for his work to be accepted. Once it was, doctors around the world used antibiotics to rid the body of this supposedly nasty bacteria. Many sufferers were relieved of their ulcers. So far, so good. What’s the problem?

 

 Pylori Helps Prevent Disease too.

This is a Problem, as we Have Been Destroying it!

 

As Dr. Blaser dug deeply into this bacteria with his experiments, he found that it also plays a beneficial function in our bodies.

 

To put it simply, he and others found that those without H. pylori bacteria in their gut were much more likely to suffer from acid reflux or GERD and from asthma!

 

Its absence may also explain why we have grown taller and fatter in recent decades.

 

We Are Now More Susceptible to Infections

 

Further…”…increased susceptibility to new infections is one of the hidden costs of antibiotic use.” In 1985, there was a massive outbreak of Salmonella in Chicago. 160,000 people became ill, several died. Authorities traced it to milk from one dairy.

 

Following the outbreak, the health department did a study of 50 people who had become ill and 50 who had not. They found that those who had taken antibiotics in the month before becoming ill were five and a half times more likely to become ill than people who drank the milk but had not taken antibiotics recently.

 

Coming Soon: “An Epidemic Against Which We Are Helpless”

 

“This is the greatest danger before us: pathogens causing an epidemic against which we are helpless. Ecological theory tells us that the people whose resident bacteria have been disrupted the most will be the most vulnerable. All things being equal, the asthmatic, the obese, and those with the modern epidemic diseases will be the ones at highest risk to succumb.”

Wikipedia entry on Dr. Blaser: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_J._Blaser

 

 

Solutions

 

The challenge is that we probably know only a fraction of the different types of bacteria that inhabit a healthy and pristine person at birth.

 

A researcher helicoptered into a remote Amazon tribe who had not had any contact with the modern world. She was able to obtain stool samples and bring them back to her lab for analysis. What she discovered was an astounding array of bacteria, some in very small quantities. Bacteria that no longer exist in our guts in the modern world.

 

So, hoping to get back to that state is next to impossible for us.

 

What we CAN do, though, is to inhabit as wide a variety of “probiotics” in our guts as possible. I would not rely on bottled probiotics alone. Perhaps it would be wise to ingest as many different types of fermented foods as possible.

 

These would include:

 

Cultured Dairy Products: Kefir & Yogurt

 

Non-Dairy Alternatives: These products are a good option if you think you have a sensitivity to dairy products: Coconut kefir, Coconut yogurt

 

Fermented Beverages: Kombucha, Kvas, Rejuvelac

 

Fermented Vegetables: Sauerkraut (fermented cabbage), Fermented Carrots, Radishes

Natto (fermented soybeans)

 

Kimchi is a fermented dish that is an important part of a traditional Korean diet. Kimchi consists of a mix of a variety of vegetables and spices. Cabbage is typically a main ingredient, as is some fish.

 

Avoid Factory Meat and Dairy

 

“Today, an estimated 70-80 percent of all antibiotics sold in the United States are used for the single purpose of fattening up farm animals: hundreds of millions of cattle, chicken, turkeys, pigs, sheep, geese, ducks, and goats. In 2011, animal producers bought nearly 30 million pounds of antibiotics, the largest amount yet recorded, for their livestock.”

 

Watch Your Water Source

 

“Millions of us are exposed every day and not just from foods. Antibiotics are found in our water…Current water purification treatments…do not fully remove antibiotics. A 2009 study in several cities in Michigan and Ohio found antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes in all source waters, drinking water from treatment plants, and tap water. The amounts were small, with the greatest levels in tap water. The point is it all adds up.”

 

 

 

Natural Antibiotics and Antivirals

 

Garlic, Echinacea, Colloidal Silver, Pau D’Arco, Manuka Honey.

 

Plus, I once used Goldenseal successfully for blood poisoning. (Please do your own research)

Which of the Most Common Fears do You Have?

 

Steve M. Nash put together this list based on the number of searches for each fear on the internet.

 

Surprisingly, fear of public speaking comes in second, not first as is commonly thought.

 

I invite you to print this out and tick off each one that you may have.

 

Here’s the list:

 

“Summary of Most Common Fears

1. Fear of flying
2. Fear of public speaking
3. Fear of heights
4. Fear of the dark
5. Fear of intimacy
6. Fear of death, dying
7. Fear of failure
8. Fear of rejection
9. Fear of spiders
10. Fear of commitment
11. Fear of flowers
12. Fear of driving
13. Fear of dogs
14. Fear of dentists
15. Fear of snakes
16. Fear of needles
17. Fear of being alone
18. Fear of water
19. Fear of god
20. Fear of abandonment
21. Fear of long words
22. Fear of clowns
23. Fear of falling
24. Fear of change
25. Fear of germs
26. Fear of music
27. Fear of doctors
28. Fear of crowds
29. Fear of being touched
30. Fear of open spaces
31. Fear of engulfment
32. Fear of girls
33. Fear of thunder
34. Fear of looking at lists of fears?”

 

That last one shows Steve has a sense of humour.

 

http://www.selfhelpcollective.com/most-common-fears.html

 

Wikipedia’s list of fears is much more exhaustive: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_phobias

 

As we might expect, some folks have fears that are so intense, it freezes them or disables them in some aspect of their lives.

 

Some may have only slight sensitivities or anxieties or apprehensions that cause only minor discomfort. Instead of debilitating fear, they may worry or fret, fuss or stew.

 

The challenge is that even these slight sensitivities or worries can cause an ongoing, below the surface, unconscious stress. And stress, as you may have heard, is not a good thing for our health.

 

Question: Would it not be great to have no fears, to be “fearless?”

 

How can we lessen the debilitating effects of our fears, once we recognize them?

 

I am told hypnosis can work.

 

As for the public speaking fear, Toastmasters has worked for many.

 

I now belong to this fine non-profit organization that helps individuals overcome fear of public speaking. I can attest to the power of positive input.

 

Toastmasters founder Ralph Smedley hit a bulls-eye when he created a system of giving lots of positive feedback to individuals. It works.

 

Wikipedia: “Ralph C. Smedley (February 22, 1878 – September 11, 1965) was the founder of Toastmasters International, an international speaking organization with more than 313,000 members in 126 countries and more than individual 14,650 clubs.”

 

Soon after joining, it became evident that Toastmasters was about way more than overcoming fear of public speaking.

 

Leadership skills are another added benefit as well as increased self-confidence.

 

Check out your local chapter here:

http://www.toastmasters.org/

 

I belong to Oak Bay Toastmasters. If you are in the Victoria area, feel free to visit. You will be most warmly welcomed. http://oakbaytoastmasters.ca/

 

 

Here’s to releasing our fears.

 

More on this in future issues.

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

Ebola: Is the “Cure” Worse Than the Disease?

 

You have “very, very little risk” of contracting Ebola.

 

That’s according to Craig Manning, a member of the Center for Disease Control’s Viral Special Pathogens branch.

 

Manning says: “People need to understand that unless they are in contact with infectious bushmeat or unless they are involved in the care and treatment of an Ebola patient at home, or in a hospital where gloves are not used – perhaps in a remote, rural clinic – anybody who was not one of those three groups basically had very, very little risk.”

 

So, why are we being absolutely inundated with this story every day in every medium: TV, radio, newspapers, the internet?

 

Follow the Money

 

As with many stories, let’s ask where is the money being made here?

 

Captain Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd Society posted a Facebook article about this. (For those on FB, see: https://www.facebook.com/captpaulwatson/posts/10152715018470932 )

 

Watson points out:

 

• TEKMIRA Pharmaceuticals holds a patent on a vaccine against Ebola.
• Monsanto has recently bought a large position in TEKMIRA.
• TEKMIRA has a $140 million contract with the U.S. military for Ebola treatment drugs.

From Watson’s post: “It is always suspicious when profits surge as hysteria over some new disease is hyped. Vaccine manufacturers made billions off the overly-exaggerated swine flu “epidemic” that did not happen and tens of millions of dollars in stockpiled swine flu vaccines that had to be destroyed by governments that panicked and purchased them with the taxpayers loss, being the pharmaceutical companies gain.”

 

…

 

“More ominously there is a very real potential for the “cure” to be more lethal than the disease if the entire U.S. population becomes the lab animals for an untested Monsanto TEKMIRA vaccine enforced through Federal legislation at the point of a gun from the military.

 

Number of Ebola Deaths since 1976: 7,997

Number of Malaria deaths since 1976: 100 million

Number of Tuberculosis deaths since 1976. 40 million

Number of Influenza deaths since 1976: 19 million

Number of Measles deaths since 1976: Estimated 20 million

 

It is estimated that malaria throughout history has killed over 50 billion people making it the number one killer of human beings over all other diseases and wars combined.

 

Tuberculosis is especially lethal to patients already suffering from HIV killing around 1 million HIV patients last year.

 

We need to keep our priorities straight.”

 

Did you catch the point about enforced vaccination?

 

Fun times.

 

Forced vaccinations so Monsanto and TEKMIRA can make their billions.

 

And did you catch the bit about how Monsanto can’t be sued for any ill effects, including death?

 

Your hero and mine, US President Obama, signed that one into law, according to Watson.

 

More detail, if you can stand any more, on Captain Watson’s Facebook post:

How to be an Expert

 

Read 3 books on the subject.

 

That’s it.

 

 

 

Motivational speaker and author Craig Valentine says very few people read these days. The average person reads only one or a few books a year.

 

If you read three books on a subject, you will know more than at least 90% of people on that subject.

 

Here’s an example from my life. When I saw the author of The Wheat Belly interviewed on CBS, I got his book from the library and read it. It was so fascinating, I also picked up Grain Brain by David Perlmutter.

 

With my appetite whetted, I continued on with the granddaddy of the Paleolithic Diet Loren Cordain’s book The Paleo Diet. This was followed by Primal Body, Primal Mind by Nora Gedgaudas, Perfect Health Diet by Paul and Shou-Ching Jaminet and finally The Wahls Protocol by Dr. Terry Wahls.

 

While I certainly do not claim to be an expert now on gluten and the Paleo diet, I learned a lot. Enough to make changes that are making a positive and useful impact on my life.

 

Who cares really what others think? What does it matter if someone else labels you an expert or not? The important thing is that we improve our lives, is it not?

 

If then, in sharing some things we have learned, we may improve others lives, why that’s a bonus.

 

So, to know more about a subject than 90% of others, read three books on it.

 

Simple, yes? Now, go out and do it.

 

Choose a subject you have curiosity about. You may find some passion for that subject once you dive into.

 

Let me know how it goes.

 

Love and Laughter,

 

Matti

What if music and sound is the core of our being?

 

Some think music is frivolous. It is to be enjoyed in the evenings after all the work is done and then only occasionally.

 

What if everything in the universe is vibration? What if nothing is solid, but, at its core, an energetic essence?

 

What if all our modern afflictions from the “diseases of civilization” such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and so on, are energetic imbalances?

 

Could our modern day anxieties  also be imbalances? Worry about the planet, about the wars, anxiety about our careers, our money, our relationships…what if they too, are energetic imbalances?

 

Could music and harmonic sound help to heal all these?

 

This is the question I pondered after attending Matthew Kocel’s “concert” recently here in Victoria (BC, Canada).

 

From his website: “Matthew Kocel is a throat singer, healer and musical visionary driven by his mission to inspire unity through the universal language of music and sacred sound.

 

The harmonic overtones of his voice – two, three, or more notes at the same time – vibrate the core of your being with extraordinary sensations, awakening a deep spiritual presence beyond words.”

 

Matthew shook me to the core. Energy was released…as if the layers of an onion were peeled. Emotions were brought up to be released. I had a part to play, of course. My part was to do the releasing.

 

What helped was his four hour Qigong training. That training immediately boosted the “chi” or vital energy.

 

It was and is palpable. It is a feeling of solidity.

 

The challenge naturally is to keep it going. How many of us have attended workshops and seminars, felt great and over time, that feeling dissipates as we re-enter the modern busy world.

 

Matthew’s “take home” message and exercises address that. All I have to do is to do it…i.e. continue the daily practices he taught us all yesterday.

 

If and when Matthew shows up in your area, be sure to attend. He is a blessing. This short clip gives a sense of his power: http://ow.ly/CkMe3

 

Here is his site: http://omshaman.com/

 

Love and Laughter, Matti

When we “plug in” to our “Mission in life” we enjoy a lifetime of fun.

 

Kind of like what Joseph Campbell said: “Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where before there were only walls.”

 

As Deepak Chopra points out in his meditation series, our “MISSION” need not be some capitalized big deal.

 

It may be that our mission at this moment is to help a friend through a tough time. It might just be to nurture ourselves by getting a massage.

 

Helping a friend allows us to feel as if we are making a worthwhile contribution.

 

Getting a massage allows us to feel good.

 

Either can move us toward a connection with our deeper selves and a connection with another or others. AND a connection to the Divine, or universal energy flow.

 

When we “get” this, we can choose to enjoy whatever we are doing.

 

It may be that our work has not been fulfilling. We can choose to make it so, just by MAKING THE CHOICE. By internally changing the attitude we bring to the task at hand.

 

Imagine a sink full of dishes when you wake up…every morning!

 

That’s what I saw in my first apartment away from my parents’ home.

 

It was disheartening and nothing to look forward to.

 

In an inspired moment, I realized that I could choose to like dishwashing. In that moment, I chose to do so.

 

As a result, I created a habit to wash my dishes right after each meal. Truth be told, I actually wash during preparation.

 

I enjoy it because I choose to enjoy it. I also enjoy the results: a clean and tidy kitchen. This feedback from the world of my kitchen (something outside of myself), gives me a brighter outlook on life.

 

It sets me up and allows me to enjoy my day more.

 

I can also choose to follow my own example and CHOOSE to enjoy any and all tasks before me at any time.

 

Do you others (perhaps you) could also choose to enjoy whatever is in front of them?

 

To view the task as part of my “mission in life” right now?

 

Do you think this kind of attitude might be useful in growing and learning?

 

Just an idea for you to consider.

 

Love, Laughter and Smiles.

 

 

Matti

5 Ways We Connect With Others Through Laughter

( Guest article by Thomas Flindt, author of Happy Lemons. Originally featured on Pine Tribe? Link: http://pinetribe.com/5-ways-connect-others-laughter/)

By now you’re probably aware that Denmark ranks #1 for reported levels of happiness, but what are the contributing factors to this happiness? Many experts cite a high level of social cohesion as just one of the many reasons attributed to the Danish happiness – many Danes belong to social clubs and participate in volunteer work. An excellent work-life balance (http://pinetribe.com/lagom-how-scandinavians-find-balance ) also means that time with family and friends is simply a high priority here. This is why I turned to Thomas Flindt, laughter expert and author of Happy Lemons, to find inspiration on how to use laughter to connect with others – everyone from family to strangers.

LAUGHTER IN LOVE

When we are in love, we simply laugh more – we communicate our love with laughter. Thomas believes this is true because when we are in love, we are living more in the present moment and we use laughter to express our acceptance and feelings towards the other person.

If you are still searching for your one and only, laughter can help you there too. Laughter provides positive energy vibrations which attract other positive people to you – you get what you vibrate! Laughter also increases the blood flow to the blood capillaries in your skin, giving it a nice glow and thus making you more attractive.

LAUGHTER IN FRIENDSHIPS

Laughter opens your heart – it is difficult to hate the person you are laughing with. Over our lives, many of the strongest friendships we make are with the people we have shared good times with. When we laugh, our bodies produce a whole range of good hormones such as oxytocin which creates a brilliant environment for us to bond with others. Laughter is therefore the perfect shortcut to building a stronger sense of connectedness no matter where we find ourselves.

You can get updates from Thomas Flindt by following him on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/ThomasFlindtAuthor?ref=br_tf  and Goodreads https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/8184062.Thomas_Flindt

LAUGHTER IN THE FAMILY

It’s easy to get wrapped up in the stresses of everyday life, but laughter can alleviate much of this stress and promote well-being and relaxation. Laughter lightens our moods, and the moods of those nearest to us, so incorporating humour into our family lives can brighten the connection we have with those we see everyday.

Laughter also improves relationships with the children in our families (whether they are our children or young cousins, nieces, nephews, etc.). I remember that I was always able to communicate with my younger cousins who didn’t speak English through the shared experience of laughter. Children can be our greatest teachers of happiness if we let them be. http://pinetribe.com/children-experts-of-happiness-dance/

LAUGHTER AT WORK

One of they key components of Danish work happiness/arbejdsglaede http://pinetribe.com/alexander-kjerulf/what-the-heck-is-arbejdsglaede is good relationships with colleagues. Laughter in the office can release creative energy and promote problem-solving activities. You can use laughter to diffuse conflict and work towards group bonding – a team that laughs together is better able to handle challenges effectively. http://pinetribe.com/what-laughter-in-the-office-does-for-you/

Thomas has visited many work teams and introduced them to laughter sessions intended to promote better staff relations and a better working environment. He believes these sessions work because they allow employees to be more open and have faith in each other.

LAUGHTER WITH STRANGERS

Danes don’t generally talk to strangers in public, so this tip is inspired by my own American upbringing. Studies have shown http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-14713/small-talk-with-strangers-could-make-you-happier-study-finds.html that interaction with strangers can make you happier; commuters in Chicago who interacted with others around them on public transportation a more positive commute than those who sat in silence/isolation. One of the best ways to connect with strangers is to make them laugh. People enjoy others who can make them laugh; it all goes back to those positive energy vibrations and how much more open we become when we laugh. Try getting out of your own head and see what happens when you are able to connect with strangers through laughter. http://tinybuddha.com/blog/11-ways-to-turn-strangers-into-friends/

Laughter is an important tool we can use to connect with others in all of our relationships – even strangers! Laughing with others is far more powerful than laughing alone. For more laughter inspiration, check out Thomas’ book, Happy Lemons.

Sugar Kills.

 

You may know that white sugar is a pure chemical= C12,H22,O11. Does that make it a drug?

 

Arab doctors used sugar as medicine 1,000 years ago. It was used as a medicine of last resort. When all else failed, they would administer 2 to 3 grains of sugar and often the patient would revive. (Source: Sugar Blues, by William Dufty)

 

How much do we consume of this powerful drug-like substance in our modern world? 130 pounds per person per year.

 

Do you think this might be a problem?

 

Here are some of the challenges sugar throws at your body.

 

It makes your brain think you haven’t eaten. You continue to feel hungry even though your belly is full. This is according to endocrinologist Robert Lustig, MD, author of Fat Chance: Beating the Odds Against Sugar, Processed Food, Obesity, and Disease.

 

Sugar makes you age faster. The fructose, a simple sugar in the complex sugar known as white sugar, speeds up the rate of cell death. This contributes to chronic diseases like type 2 diabetes and heart disease.

 

Sugar feeds cancer. This is a highly controversial area and not everyone agrees. My take? Why take a chance.

 

Sugar makes your liver fat. When you flood the liver with sugar, it has no choice but to turn it into liver fat. So what? A 2012 study in the Journal of Clinical Nutrition found people who ate 1,000 extra calories of sugary foods saw just a 2 percent increase in body weight, but a 27 percent increase in liver fat. This can lead to:

 

Fatty Liver Disease (the non-alcoholic variety).

 

Sugar makes you an addict. Eating sugar gives you a feeling of pleasure. But, as you eat more and more, you need more and more to get that pleasure. Does that sound like a heroin or hard drug addict? Might sugar actually be a “hard drug?” It seems to act like one. If it quacks like a duck…

 

 

Cutting back on sugar has a limited usefulness. We actually need to totally cut out fructose for two weeks to allow the body to recover from the onslaught of sugar’s attack.

 

To find why and how to do that, email me and ask for the Special Report on THE SUGAR FIX: 88matti@gmail.com

You just might want to see more of these kinds of stories/anecdotes than the once a month Mastery Newsletter. The “Inner Circle” explores a whole lot more subjects than I can fit into a monthly newsletter.

 

It is “ad hoc,” meaning it arrives in your inbox whenever I run across something, that could be once every 2 or 3 weeks. It might also be a few times in a single day. As always, simple to unsubscribe if it gets to be too much.

 

TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE INNER CIRCLE: Send an email to freedombalance@shaw.ca with “SUB INNER CIRCLE” in the subject line.
