| Blog 26 June 2010 Hi there I just want to share my own experience of having endured the multiple symptoms of fibromyalgia for many years of my life. I was diagnosed in 2000 but really believe I had been experiencing all of the symptoms for the majority of my life..! I had chronic fatigue, TMJ, sleep disorder - waking 4-6 times a night, mental anxiety attacks and depression, very limited ROM (range of movement), acute/chronic pain in every part of my body except from my knees down?, symptoms of Bi pola, 4-7 day migraines, skin sensitivity/burning, muscle spasms & continual contraction, hearing loss of certain frequencies, dry eyes and mouth, numbness and tingling sensations, PMS, memory loss & lack of co-ordination, metabolic & immune disorders - just to name a few..!! Over a few years I tried a lot of various treatments, leaning more to the natural & complimentary medicines and got to the point of Pain management on a "block it out" basis, you just get used to it and don't realise how disfunctional you are living, but thats how it gets eventually. I did get to the point earlier this year of deciding I needed to find Something to eleviate my pain without having to continue Panadeine forte as I had no real relief from using that, just took the edge off if I took 3-4 at a time. I had been working on weaning myself off them for the last couple of years. I now have 2 beautiful grandsons and found my ability to lift, run & play with them was being limited to pain threshold. Wonderful find in Byron Bay visiting my daughter, I walked into Gabriel & Satori's shop and found LifeWave... I was elated to say the least. That was in Jan this year. I got my order when home in Feb and started the Detox for 3 weeks and like going through a jigsaw puzzle used the Icewave to release pain throughout my body. It took me a week I suppose, to get all those points opened up. Well I'm so very amazed after doing 3 months of detox with the Y age & Energy Enhancer, only occassional Icewave & Yes those wonderful Silent Nights, my body is totally so different now...... I sleep soundly-All night, My pain level is relieved 98% , my muscles are relaxed and PAIN FREE at last and I have so much energy I don't know what to do with it some days..!! I am continuing a further detox again as I realise how toxic my body must have been to have experienced all of those symptoms for so long. Even now my perspiration is still "smelly", my skin is still excreting toxic waste and my leftover % of pain is a sure indicator that my body is still working through it all.. As I say to people who ask how long do you do it for? - it takes as long as it takes for the individual and I know now in looking back that I was subjected to a huge amount of poisons and toxins, so I'll be going until my body has no more symptoms...I'm not going back there ever again.. I hope you find this of interest for any others with Fibromyalgia and associated disorders. Cheers Terese Frazer 19 May 2010 For the past 10 months now I have been feeling more balanced, contented and accepting of myself than i can remember. Waking up at first light and going straight out into the garden and breathing in the beautiful crisp morning air, I feel younger everyday. So I asked myself, what have I been doing that is different to the previous years, and it has become quite obvious. Last year i was introduced to a new, yet ancient concept in healthy living. "Light Energy". The ancient medicine and art of healing, acupuncture, now combined with modern technology, creating"software for our bodies". At first i just used them every other day, but now i am so impressed with the results for myself, i use them on a daily basis. These amazing little patches, are programmed to stimulate my acupuncture/acupressure points and open up my meridians, creating flow, balance and harmony. Its like when i go into the sunlight and the sun stimulates production of vitamin D in my body. So, feeling more confident about the results for me, I have slowly introduced the Patches to my clients, and seeing more and more how they help them in their daily lives too, I no longer hesitate to share this knowledge. In fact, I think it would be unethical not to share this with everyone. If you would like to know more, please feel free to email me:info@shambala.net.au Testimonial from Sue White Date: 17 January 2010 8:40:33 PM AEDT Hi Gabriel, Thank you for this email and attachments. Now that we are back home in Busselton, without the added distraction of two small energy bundles to take our attention, I'll have time to read and absorb the information. I do feel so much better- definitely more energetic- since using the patches and having those three Trager sessions with you. What ever made me choose Shambala from the list of practitioners in Byron Bay, I will never know. I couldn't have chosen better and I thank the Powers that Be for guidance. From that first session with you, followed by the Reiki with your wife, I knew something had fallen into place ... and am very grateful for your gift. Towards the end of the last session, it was amazing to feel such emotion. Such happiness. I really wanted to laugh out loud with the joy of it- but chose to accept in silence, so not to break the moment. Does that make sense to you? Whatever it was, I know you have helped me both physically and spirituality. I hope to see you, when we visit Byron again, I feel sure we will. Looking forward to progressing further with your help and advice, Thank you, thank you, Gabriel, I do believe you are an angel, "J) Sue. 26 April 2009 What ever happened to summer? it went so fast we hardly had time to blink! I must say though, it has been splendid indeed. the rain stayed away and we all, visitors and residents alike were able to enjoy beautiful sunny days almost the entire summer, and when we did have rain, it was a welcome relief and quite refreshing. Well, in the last couple of months we have brought into our lives and practise another range of products called LifeWave. 3 December 2008 Here we are at the beginning of summer, real summer has finally kicked in. the days are beautifully hot and the evenings balmy to a slow cooling down. Schoolies are still here and there, but it looks like they have spent their energy and slowing down, leaving to go back home. Ahhhh, how i remember those days of madness, how could i ever deny the schoolies of what i was myself? Anyway, it is safe to come out now, and walk the streets, drive your cars and enjoy the summer. See you soon, here at Shambala for your own treat, on the beach and out and about. The festive season is upon us, parties are happening all over the shire, and life is good.

Scientists think they have figured out why pregnant women don't lose their balance and topple over despite ever-growing weight up front. Evolution provided them with slight differences from men in their lower backs and hip joints, allowing them to adjust their center of gravity, new research shows. This elegant engineering is seen only in female humans and our immediate ancestors who walked on two feet, but not in chimps and apes, according to a study published in Thursday's journal Nature. "That's a big load that's pulling you forward," said Liza Shapiro, an anthropology professor at the University of Texas and the only one of the study's three authors who has actually been pregnant. "You experience discomfort. Maybe it would be a lot worse if (the design changes) were not there." Harvard anthropology researcher Katherine Whitcomb found two physical differences in male and female backs that until now had gone unnoticed: One lower lumbar vertebra is wedged-shaped in women and more square in men; and a key hip joint is 14 percent larger in women than men when body size is taken into account. The researchers did engineering tests that show how those slight changes allow women to carry the additional and growing load without toppling over - and typically without disabling back pain. "When you think about it, women make it look so very damn easy," Whitcomb said. "They are experiencing a pretty impressive challenge. Evolution has tinkered ... to the point where they can deal with the challenge. "It's absolutely beautiful," she said. "A little bit of tinkering can have a profound effect." Walking on two feet separates humans from most other animals. And while anthropologists still debate the evolutionary benefit of walking on two feet, there are notable costs, such as pain for pregnant females. Animals on all fours can better handle the extra belly weight. The back changes appear to have evolved to overcome the cost of walking on two feet, said Harvard anthropology professor Daniel Lieberman. When the researchers looked back at fossil records of human ancestors, including the oldest spines that go back 2 million years to our predecessor, Australopithecus, they found a male without the lower-back changes and a female with them. But what about men with stomachs the size of babies or bigger? What keeps them from toppling over? Their back muscles are used to compensate, but that probably means more back pain, theorized Shapiro, who added: "It would be a fun study to do to look at men with beer bellies to see if they shift their loads."

16/09: So the weather has turned, and we are truly moving into the spring/summer season that we have all been waiting for! Living in an area where we are spoilt by having beautiful clear skies, blue and turquoise waters, with dolphins and whales going by, plus a plethora of sea life, we do not like the cold, not even for a month or two.....not that it is really cold by Victoria or Tassie standards, but when the weather drops by even a couple of degrees, we tend to feel it.brrrrrrr.... So, bring on the summer, the beautiful visitors and lots of balmy beautiful days.....we love it!!
01/09: Intentional Aroma Therapy "awaken your spirit"
when working with essential oils, i like to help people go on an intentional journey of affirmations, while restoring their confidence in themselves, releasing old baggage and becoming inspired again.
So often, we go into a massage with the idea that ironing away the painful muscles is all we need.
Well, when we have someone help us, while this beautiful intimate session of touch, deeply moving our bodies is happening, also take an emotional journey, with the aid of powerfiull essential oils and affirmations, the resulting benefits are limitless.
We not only get the benefit of the medicinal aspects of the oils, but we also get the emotional release, joy, peace and calming effects they have on us.
Essential oils kill off parasites and bad bacteria, while oxygenating our blood stream. This inturn expands the mind, brain and soul.
Depending on what is happening for each individual, choosing the significant oil and placing it in the appropriate place on the body, can bring about profound results, both physically and emotionally.
It is important too, to be using the highest vibrational oils possible.
