Last Saturday afternoon I knocked on wood as I thought to myself, thank goodness Leonard Horowitz’s predictions of a particularly nasty flu this winter hasn’t crossed our paths. By evening I was beginning to fade.

We had just run into Leonard at the Conscious Living Expo in Los Angeles and taped some of his announcement of his new book on the 528 Hz. frequency of love, which had reminded me of our last meeting in which we spoke of 528 and the coming strains of flu. I was counting my lucky stars that Scott and I have had no sniffles at all this year.

We had just spent the night with our friends Sheila and Marcus Gillette during which Sheila told tales of this ungodly flu bug that had taken her down for two weeks. Some of her friends had lost a month or more to the bug. We shuttered to think. Still in the middle of doing a dozen interviews within a couple of weeks, we needed all the energy we have.

By Monday, Valentine’s Day, I said “Honey, can we drive home – right now?” This meant missing an important meeting with some associates in Los Angeles, dinner with Sheila and Marcus and appearing live on their radio show the next morning. But there was no choice, I was fading fast. Scott headed north up the 405.

That was Monday. It’s now Saturday. We just poked the last of the sweat soaked sheets and clothing through the washing machine door, washed our gnarled hair, shaved and made a cup of tea. Whatever this bug is, it didn’t feel like a normal flu at all. Let’s start with the glass shards in the stomach with instant stomache aches that doubled us over, though no nausea. We had fevers for 4 days straight. The stuff that comes up from our lungs is green and brown. It felt as though we had only 5-10% of our enegy available during the first four days. Our minds were either asleep, dozing or just short of delirious.

Once we each caught a clear thought Scott dragged his body to the accupuncturist, which helped him come back around a good deal. I was too tired to move so I called Harvey Bigelsen and cranked up my bio-mat, in spite of the fact that I was already hot.

I had procured some isopathic remedies from Harvey a while back for some dental work. It was a live germ antibiotic that would replace any need for a pharmaceutical antibiotic. Considering my flu symptoms, he suggested I take one in the morning and one in the afternoon, that’s all.

Within 6 hours I went from feeling like a disoriented women in her twilight years holding onto the walls just to walk the length of the hallway, to my relatively normal self, but with 50% of the energy, which is a big improvement over 5%. I then started using the bio mat on high infra red settings, which helped maintain my progress. Wild Oregano Oil and colloidal silver made into a tincture went up the snout via a mister. I am on the mend as is Scott.

Meanwhile, I spoke with a friend who had come down with the same thing while in Los Angeles at Thanksgiving as happened a friend of hers traveling there separately on the same weekend. I can’t imagine how many people attending the Expo left with the same ‘gift’. Normally I have all my little tinctures and my mat nearby and manage to keep virus’ and such from effecting me, but we were on the road and more vulnerable.

My intuitive hit, not that it helps, is that this is an engineered flu. Perhaps I’ve been in the world of intrigue and conspiracy too long, but that’s what it feels like. I would be curious to find out what you may know, and to see if any of you have had this same bug and what has worked in your recovery. Perhaps we can pool our information and help one another get through the remainder of the flu season.

Yes. That feels better. I’ve been eating only clean and light sources of food, especially avocados with lemon juice, have drunk lots of vitamin C with pure Elderberry Syrup and have been using a steamer/inhaler with wild oregano oil. This helped to clear my chest nicely. Now it’s time to get back to work!

Meanwhile, I want to thank you for your kind and helpful comments, comments that hopefully gave some guidance and wisdom to others who have fallen ill to these strange bugs.

I’ve recently written some blogs about the electrical nature of our True Self, or soul. The soul’s electrical impulse gives animus to the physical body’s electrical circuitry at the time of birth and withdraws at the time of death. It’s the part of us that lives between the cells of the body – the spark of life. But what do we know about our physical electrical nature?

I just interviewed Don Tolman, cowboy health vigilante who has been called a cross between Albert Einstein and George Carlin. Everything he says makes sense, at least to me. This interview was preceded with an interview with physicist and all round genius David Sereda. They both ended up at the same place – we are electrical beings and if we do not receive enough of an electrical charge from the things that maintain life, we die. Conversely, if we receive too much electrical impulse from a grand scale solar event, for example, we could short out. Either way, we need to consider our electrical nature and begin to accomodate this rarely considered aspect of physical health.

The Spark of Life

As Don mentions in our radio interview this month (http://www.cmn.tv/radio/don-tolman/) the greatest electrical nutrients are within our everyday experience and with a small amount of effort we can maximize on them. The same is true of our food supply. That which is raw, organically grown in fertile soil and is fresh, is alive and has it’s own conductive and assimilation properties via its minerals.

In addition there are therapies that use electrical currents such as Rife type technologies, which send specific electrical frequencies to the body to kill invading organisms. Acupuncture re-balances the electrical system by inserting tiny needles into the electrical pathways.

When the electrolytes in the body go out of balance there is not sufficient spark to keep the vital functions operating. I know this one well as I was born with a condition in which my minerals can be thrown out of balance with little provocation. This has necessitated untold numbers of visits to emergency rooms around the world. When I try to describe it, all I can say is that I feel as though the plug has been pulled, that I can’t feel the energy around my body and it feels like I am dying, which I am. Out of self defence, I have learned to protect my electrical system.

As Don Tolman says, the path to a healthy electrical system is simple:

1. Breathe fresh air every day. 2. Drink freshly charged water (shake it up before drinking). 3. Get out in the sunlight! 4. Move your body to keep the energy moving and all systems vital. 5. Eat foods that are alive with minerals, vitamins and energy.

Another method of charging our field is well know to all of us – our morning shower. Research has shown that falling water creates thousands of negative ions by splitting otherwise neutral particles of air, freeing electrons to manifest their vitalizing function. These electrons join up with smaller air particles, thus giving them a predominantly negative charge – negative ions. This helps clear our ‘field’ of static and noise while refreshing us.

I use a high tech add on. A few years ago I wanted to get a far infra-red sauna but had no room for it and, frankly, couldn’t afford it. So I bought what’s called a bio-mat. It’s a space age technology embedded in a mat that charges my electrical field with far infra-red light and negative ions while I sleep . The original idea was to get rid of pain and inflammation, but now I sleep on it for the immune system boost and overall well being. At the expense of sounding like a circus hawker, I even became a distributor for them because I deeply appreciate what the mat does for Scott, me and my friends who also sleep on them. You can learn more at www.biomatheaven.com if you feel inclined. As wonderful as the mat is, it is a supplement to, and doesn’t replace, the natural elements spoken of earlier.

It’s not rocket science to know the status of our electrical health. The most important indicator is how we feel.  If we feel “drained”, our batteries are low and we had better give them a boost. If we feel “charged” we feel alive, like we can take on the world. The difference to our health is as obvious as waves crashing onto the shore versus a stagnant pond.

The best way to keep our energy topped up is simply to recognize our electrical nature; study up on it with books such as ‘The Body Electric’ by Robert O. Becker, M.D. and stick your finger into the electrical socket of the natural world around us.
