| Energy Healing - Horse & Crystal |
This workshop uses horse energy and crystal energy to redirect and rebalance your energy centers. This form of energy healing treats the whole person; your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual self. The goal is to restore balance to your energy centers and fortify them. This is what heals you.
|
Connecting with horses, guided by a facilitator, has the potential to promote healing by recognizing when we are emotionally congruent. The potential of a greater production of electrical energy from the horse's heart contributes to their natural healing abilities. It is estimated that the energy required to pump human blood is almost 5 watts of power per hour. Because of its greater size, the average horse heart may produce 65 watts of power per hour. To be in the presence of this amplified electrical heart energy has positive effects on humans. It has been demonstrated that the human's entire chakra system can become balanced after a single healing session with a horse. Crystals are powerful, transformational tools, capable of turning sound into light. They constitute and comprise the very essence of our physical and energetic composition. Our bodies, like crystals, are composed of silicone and water, and that is why we can so intensely feel the vibration of a crystal bowl resonating within us. Quartz crystals can be used in many different ways to process various types of energy. The crystal is a neutral object whose inner structure exhibits a state of perfection and balance. When the human enters into relationship with its structural perfection, the crystals emit a vibration which extends and amplifies the powers of the user's mind. Like a laser, it radiates energy in a coherent, highly concentrated form, and this energy may be transmitted into objects or people. It is this application of quartz crystals we use towards subtle energetic healing of human illnesses. The possibilities for energy healing are limitless. Be a part of the new frontier of alternative medicine. |

Every Tuesday until December- 11:00 am to 5:00 pm |

Instructor: |
ZsaZsa Stiasny, a certified coach, facilitator and instructor, has been working with horses for 20+ years. 8 years ago she started raising, training and rehabilitating horses using natural horsemanship techniques as taught by such inspiring horse industry leaders as Monty Roberts, Mark Rashid, John Lyons and Pat Parelli. In 2008, she was divinely inspired to leave a successful corporate career of many years to spend time with her horses on what is now Healing Horses Sanctuary. Not sure where it was going to lead or what she was meant to do with the horses, she knew that work with the horses was part of her life's purpose. ZsaZsa started Equutrails Horseback Riding. Riding out in the wilderness with almost no one around is something that she absolutely loved to do and to share with others but she knew there was a deeper calling to this journey she was on. Through prayer and meditation, study, synchronicities and just plain "following her nose", she was eventually led to the development of this very unique program. The horses and crystals are an integral part of a unique energy program not offered anywhere else.

Healthy Tips for Your Animals Natural Care
Pets for your Health
Do you have a pet? Studies show that pet owners have lower blood pressure, reduced stress levels and lower cholesterol readings than those without pets, regardless of other factors like smoking and diet. If you don't have a pet, maybe you can 'borrow' one by volunteering to walk a neighbor's dog or pet sitting. It may be a good way to see if owning a pet could be good for your health.

A Warning About Cocoa Mulch Cocoa Mulch, which is sold by Home Depot, and other Garden supply stores, contains a lethal ingredient called "Theobromine". It is lethal to dogs and cats. It smells like chocolate and it really attracts dogs. They will ingest this stuff and die. Several deaths already occurred in the last 2-3 weeks. Just a word of caution check what you are using in your gardens and be aware of what your gardeners are using in your gardens. Theobromine is the ingredient that found in chocolate... especially dark or baker's chocolate and it is toxic to dogs. Cocoa bean shells contain potentially toxic quantities of theobromine, a xanthine compound similar in effects to caffeine and theophylline. A dog that ingested a lethal quantity of garden mulch made from cacao bean shells developed severe convulsions and died 17 hours later. Analysis of the stomach contents and the ingested cacao bean shells revealed the presence of lethal amounts of theobromine.
We Need Your Bags! There is a serious shortage of plastic bags at the various parks. Need to get rid of that pile of plastic bags from your cupboard? Well we could use 'em! Please bring some plastic bags with you and fill up the bag dispensers when you're out walking your pooch. We thank you!

Reminder to care for our birds during the cold and snow covered months
Does Your Pet Need the Needle? by Dr. Moira Drosdovech, Pawsitive Veterinary Care
"Almost without exception there is no immunologic requirement for annual revaccination. Immunity to viruses persists for years or for the life on the animal. The practice of annual (pet) vaccinations lacks scientific validity or verification. The practice of annual vaccination in our opinion should be considered of questionable efficacy unless it is used as a mechanism to provide an annual physical examination."-- Professors Tom Phillips and Ron Schultz, "Canine and Feline Vaccines," Kirk's Current Veterinarian Therapy XI. What else needs to be said about vaccinations in pets? The above statement sums it up in an unambiguous manner and has been quoted very often in the last 8-10 years since it was printed. Many veterinarians in the last decade have begun questioning whether over-vaccination, while not yet validated scientifically, may be causing a good deal of unnecessary chronic illness in our pets. What is a pet guardian to do? My position is that....[Read More ]
Treat your animals to Reflexology
Pawspoint Reflexology To the Rescue By Yvette Eastman - Director of Touchpoint Institute of Reflexology and Kinesthetics
Animals are excellent candidates for Reflexology. They benefit from Reflexology as much as people do and perhaps even more than petting! They walk and live in the same stressful settings as we do, breathe the same air, drink the same water and lead noisy, angry, deprived lives.
For the love of humans, they have given up much of their freedom, and most of their instincts.
It is time for us to give them something very special. When you first work on an animal, you need to relax them with and ... [... Read More ]
What is a Power Animal? By Dawn Dancing Otter.
There are many metaphors in which one will find the unfolding of authentic self. Traditionally, the power animal has been integrated in indigenous cultures as a method of discovering the personality, strengths, karma, and life purpose of a person. I like also to think of power animal as our sixth sense, providing us with tools of intuition, health, boundaries, energy, and instincts. We all have a power animal, though most of us are unaware of it.... [ Read More]
Here today...extinct tomorrow from David Suzuki
Canada is known throughout the world for its wildlife. Even our coins feature iconic Canadian animals such as the beaver, caribou, loon, and polar bear. It's sad to think that some of these very same animals are at risk of extinction. In May of this year, the federal government’s Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) announced that more than 500 Canadian species are now at risk of extinction. Dangers such as climate change and habitat destruction are putting our animals at risk. Each species plays a role in nature. When wildlife goes extinct, it harms the Earth’s ability to provide the natural services we depend on.
On Canada’s west coast, bears eat nitrogen-rich salmon and their scat helps fertilize trees. And pollinators such as bees and butterflies help control pests while helping crops grow. Mammals, birds, reptiles, and amphibians are all important parts of a healthy ecosystem. It’s clear we need to protect Canada’s species, especially the ones at risk of extinction. After all, what happens to them affects us all... [To read more......]

OK In Health Web Site
Missing Sheperd/Rottie cross Dog in Westbank area( Update Jan.2009 still missing)
Indy was in my Jeep when it was stolen from the Westbank area on August 4. My Jeep was recovered in Vernon but there has been no sign of Indy. She is a 12 year old spayed female Sheperd/Rottie cross. She is tattooed in her right ear #608JBG. At the time she had on a choke chain with no tags. She is black with a tan chest and face. She has a fatty tissue growth on the inside of her left rear leg which is noticeable. She has arthrisis in her spine and needs medication in order to be able to climb stairs etc. At the time she went missing she weighed 80 lbs. She is friendly and responds better to women than men. If you have any information or think you might know where she is please contact Andrea at (250) 768-9715 or (250) 878-9715. Thank you.
Missing Siamese Cat in Peachland area.

Missing Dog - Copper - is lost in South OKanagan during storms Update Jan 2009 - Still missing
I was visiting a friend Ken on August 9th in Cawston, on my way home to Burnaby from Penticton. Ken lives near the upper bench road on Barcelo Road. While there, the crazy thunder storm whipped up and my dog managed to escape from our pick up truck on Ken’s property around 3pm. We searched for several hours with no luck. We have contacted many people in the Cawston/ Keremeos/Penticton area and have searched again in that area on Aug 13. If you could pass the word or keep eyes open for this dog it would be greatly appreciated.
He is a Nova Scotia Duck Toller Retriever.
He does know his name well, and responds fairly well to the command, ‘Copper, come’. He is 9-1/2 years old and is around 45 pounds and about 16 to 18 inches at the shoulder. He is generally an orange color with a white blaze on his chest and on his nose. He has a blue collar on with tags with his name on and our phone number and the vet tag. We are pretty shaken up by it all. He just did not deal well with storms however. My phone number is .604 592 7545 email is stevehodge@shaw.ca. Thank you very much, Steve Hodge
Missing Cat- Where is Orlando?
We have lost our 8 year male orange tabby on Friday February 15. We live in Mariners Village in Steveston. If found or if you need more information please contact us at 604-999-9113. Thank you, Doug and Nichola Hastie Thanks you, we FOUND him!
Missing Puppy- Where is Hyder?
Hyder went missing from the belgo/black mountain area, Kelowna on the morning of January 6th. He is a large breed, light blonde/sandy coloured male dog. Hyder is getting over an injury and has a shaved patch with an incision on one side. He has a tattoo in his ear and was wearing his collar when he disappeared. Hyder is greatly missed by his human companions and his buddy Barkley. If you know where Hyder is, PLEASE call.....
Thank you for posting our notice. Hyder was found yesterday! A tearful reunion after a week of being locked in someone’s yard in a neighbouring subdivision. He is thin and has an injured foot, but is very happy to be home. |
SPCA Go to the SPCA kennels and give them the same details as you have given to the police and ask to see every dog/Cat in the pound - a description may not be sufficient to identify a dog/cat. Visit at least twice a week and take a photograph of the animal with you.
Description - Ask the police for the name and address of the dog warden. Take him a description of your missing dog/cat, and if possible a photograph.
Neighbourhood Watch -Search your neighborhood thoroughly. Call your loudly and listen for a reply. They may be trapped somewhere and be unable to get to you. A distressed Pet may hide for days or even travel long distances (Cats often hide and have been known to hide in car boots and be taken from the area inadvertently).
Advertisements - Advertise in your local paper. Watch the 'Found' advertisements. Pin up a notice on your own front gate, in shop windows, on trees near bus stations, and perhaps the local radio station will be prepared to broadcast a description of your missing dog.
Ask others... Ask your milkman, postman, paper boy or dustman to look out for your dog. Show them a good photograph. Lost dogs are sometimes taken home by the finder after registering a description at the police station. After one month, the dog becomes the property of the finder.
Ask local schools to ask the children to look out for the animal. Contact the refuse department in case the animal has been killed on the road.
Local Vet -Contact your local veterinary practices - an injured animal is usually taken to a veterinary surgeon for treatment to avoid unnecessary suffering, but remember it is not always possible to give extensive treatment or to nurse the animal afterwards unless the owner is traced to authorize the treatment and the cost.
REMEMBER: Identification - Your Pet should always wear a collar properly secured (so that it cannot be slipped in emergencies) together with an identity disc.
Even the most careful, devoted owner and most devoted, well trained dog may become separated.
