                      "Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless"
                                                                    -Mother Teresa
                                                                           
Reflection: What I think this beautiful quote means that even the littlest most gorgeous words can effect a person in a amazing way and stay permanent in their heart. For example... A young girl thinks she's just another ugly person but you say NO your'e a beautiful sweet person, and I love you... that can effect a person deeply and emotionally in a lovely way.

                                          Pyramid  Healing
Pyramid Healing:
Pyramid healing is an alternative healing practice that is based on the concept that the shape of the pyramid provides a means of tapping into the healing energy that surrounds every living thing. Proponents of this type of healing note that pyramids are found in many different cultures, and are often associated with growth, production, and vitality. By using simple handheld pyramids to direct this pyramid healing power, practitioners seek to heal such ailments as general fatigue, depression and anxiety, tension, and even the common cold. The actual process of pyramid healing varies from one user to another. Some healers use blends of scented herbs that are believed to help the patient relax, while others use candles or incense to accomplish the same end. Taking care to place the patient in an environment where natural sunlight is ample, a small pyramid is held in the hand by the practitioner. Depending on the approach, the pyramid may be gently applied to the surface of the skin, or hovered just above the skin. Each technique is understood to serve as a conduit for natural healing energy to enter the body and begin correcting the root cause for any imbalance between mind, body, and spirit that is leading to the ailment.


Aspects of Pyramid Healing: The Pyramids are like puzzle for mankind and a very little is known and more about them are still on the way. They have generated a curiosity in our minds about their power of preserving and their energy. Pyramid has a special property to deflect any type of cosmic radiations that falls on its apex downwards through its base line at the bottom where this deflected cosmic radiation, with the help of magnetic field of Earth's Gravitational Force, Creates a new and very powerful energy flow. Secondly as pyramid deflects all radiations that falls on its apex through its bottom from all of its four sides the inner center of pyramid remains unaffected and Safe and surrounded by a powerful bio-energy field on all sides, which helps to preserve the things and objects kept in the pyramid for a long-long time.
Reflection: Yes I would like to try pyramid healing, it looks really interesting and helpful.
