Dear Ones,

Yesterday evening I channeled three Diamond Mudras … the Upper Diamond, the Lower Diamond, and the Central Diamond, all of which I like very much, and which I hope you will find helpful as well.

With these, as with all yoga techniques, please see check with your Western medical practitioner before practicing them, to make sure they will be suitable for you to do, considering the state of your health, and any medications you may be taking.

THREE-PART CENTRAL DIAMOND MUDRA

I will begin with the three-part Central Diamond (left, right, and pranic tube) …

WHAT IT WILL DO FOR YOU

This Central Diamond Mudra has many benefits …

  • It fills the pranic reserve with vital energy;
  • It strengthens the will power; and
  • It clears the heart chakra of negativity, whether the emotion is personal or projected by other people …
  • Thus it can help stabilize the electromagnetic field against the waves of hatred that have been sweeping round Earth lately, as hatred clears from Earth.
  • It links the ida, pingala, and sushumna (the three channels of the central vertical power current (the kundalini);
  • It opens up the upper Pranic Tube above the heart, making it possible to develop the quality of Unmoving Mind; and
  • It balances and stabilizes the kundalini energy, vital energy, heart energy, and upper pranic tube energy …
  • Thus, it prevents pass-throughs and flow-throughs by others, whether human (including antisocial personalities and Controllers), Demon, Demon half-breed (‘hybrid’), Vampiric, or Big Bads.

CENTRAL DIAMOND POINTS

The central diamond points are the heart chakra, the navel point, and two points between the two, on either side of the torso, as shown in the below image markup. The point on the left side of the bottom of the left rib (from the point of view of the person practicing yoga, and not that of the person viewing the yoga practitioner) represents the Spleen Organelle or ‘ida’ point. The point on the right side of the bottom of the right rib represents the ‘pingala’ point.

Four small diamonds are drawn on the torso: A green diamond at the heart (representing the heart chakra); an orange diamond at the navel point (representing the third chakra), a white diamond on the left side of the bottom of the left rib (representing the Spleen Organelle or 'ida' point), and a smaller, slightly lower white diamond on the right side of the bottom right rib (representing the 'pingala' point).

PART 1: CENTRAL DIAMOND KRIYA – LEFT

There are two parts to this kriya.

What It Will Do for You

The first mudra unites heart and will, builds vital energy, and clears heart energy. This is the crystal kundalini core energy.

The right palm is on the abdomen, and the left palm is on the heart. There is an outline in white of a diamond shape, wider than it is tall, with tiny white diamonds at the corners of the larger diamond shape. The tiny diamonds are just outside both bent elbows and at the centers of both hands. Although a pose is shown of sitting crosslegged, it would be best to use the mudra while lying on the back in 'corpse pose' ... PURPOSE: This mudra unites heart and will: Builds vital energy, and clears heart energy. This is the crystal kundalini core energy.

DESCRIPTION: Shows the author sitting cross-legged, with both hands, palms down, on torso. The right palm is on the abdomen, and the left palm is on the heart. There is an outline in white of a diamond shape, wider than it is tall, with tiny white diamonds at the corners of the larger diamond shape. The tiny diamonds are just outside both bent elbows and at the centers of both hands. Although a pose is shown of sitting cross-legged, it would be best to use the mudra while lying on the back in ‘corpse pose’ … 

PURPOSE: This mudra unites heart and will: Builds vital energy, and clears heart energy. This is the crystal kundalini core energy. 

How to Do It. Lying on your back in ‘corpse pose’, place your left hand, palm down, on your heart, and your right hand, palm down, on your navel point. Feel both palms on your body. Then include in your Awareness the outer edges of your elbows. This is the Central Diamond, the Crystal Core of your kundalini energy.

Make your breathing long, slow, and deep. You can continue for up to an hour, or for as little as a few minutes … whatever feels comfortable to you, provided your doctor advises this practice.

The Spleen Organelle (the Ida Point) and the Pranic Reserve. I clairly sense that this first part of the Central Diamond Mudra draws vitality globules into the Spleen Organelle (the ida point), under the leftmost, bottom rib. From there, it seems to me, these globules are stored in what yogis term the Pranic Reserve, a subtle body organelle shaped like a rounded half-dome, the top of which touches the diaphragm, which is located just under the ribs.

So the Pranic Reserve is an area of the subtle body known as the Body of Light (which is electromagnetic in nature), where vitality globules created by our Sun are stored. This Pranic Reserve nourishes both our subtle bodies and our physical body, and accounts for the relative brightness or darkness of our Body of Light.

What Happens when the Pranic Reserve Is Replenished. When the Pranic Reserve is replenished with vital energy, several things happen …

  • First, the tubule of the subtle organ known as the Spleen Organelle (which looks like a funnel whose larger, open end begins at the ida point just under the leftmost side of the lowest left rib) grows wider and full of energy; any kinks in the long, winding tube of the funnel begin to unkink; and vitality globules begin to flow through the funnel, emptying into the Pranic Reserve through the opening in the small end of the funnel.
  • Next, the will power (the navel point energy) grows stronger.
  • Thirdly, the energy of the heart chakra clears and becomes positively aspected. Where there may priorly have been negative emotions such as fear or sadness or anger or hatred, there is now a pleasant feeling of love, and in clair vision, a bright Light.
  • Fourth, the pingala point just beneath the rightmost side of the lowest right rib), plumps up with Light.
  • And last, all four points of the Central Diamond light up, as the kundalini core energy begins softly to glow and pulse with crystal, white Light.

PART 2: CENTRAL DIAMOND KRIYA – RIGHT

What It Will Do for You

This second part of Central Diamond Mudra smooths and stabilizes vital energy and heart energy for restful sleep.

OPENING THE UPPER PRANIC TUBE

There is a tube in the upper part of the center of the chest, the ‘trachea’, which connects the mouth and nose with the lungs. It is through the trachea that air rushes back and forth, from the lungs to the air outside us.

This tube in the center of the chest, above the level of the heart , corresponds to the subtle body organelle termed the upper Pranic Tube.

What It Will Do for You

I clairly sense that opening and clearing the upper Pranic Tube streamlines access to the downloads of the Incoming Light, facilitating elimination of malware in our Body of Light, and  transition to DNA upgrades leading to improved health of our subtle and physical bodies.

In ancient days, the yogis of India sometimes said that meditation on the trachea, or on the corresponding part of the Pranic Tube, might help a yoga attain Unmovable Mind … a mind ready to confront any trouble with equanimity, and able to withstand any torrent of time or buffet of the natural world or tumult of new days dawning.

This exercise also helps clear the high heart (located at the level of the thymus gland) and the throat chakra (the fifth chakra).

How to Do It

After practicing both parts of the Central Diamond Mudra, and still in corpse pose, place your Awareness on your trachea.

Continue with long, slow, deep breathing. Feel your chest rising and falling. Sense the air moving back and forth through the trachea. If it feels comfortable to do so, inhale a little more, until the lungs are full of air, and exhale very thoroughly, until the lungs are empty of air.

Continue for a few minutes, until you feel the upper part of the subtle body organelle known as the pranic tube relax and open (provided your doctor advises this practice).

UPPER AND LOWER DIAMOND MUDRAS

There are two more Diamond Mudras … the Upper and the Lower. These clear the Transpersonal Chakras and the Subpersonal Chakras, respectively.

These mudras may be done, the one or the other, on their own. Or they may be done one after the other, after doing the Central Diamond Mudra.

UPPER DIAMOND MUDRA

What It Will Do for You

The Upper Diamond Mudra purifies, strengthens, and stabilizes the Transpersonal Chakras, making it easier for the Incoming Light to uplift and heal the subtle bodies and the physical form. It can also help clear the upper astral body of the influence of Controllers, negatively aspected Spiritual Adepts, and astral ‘thuggees’ (whether possessing or without physical form).

Make your breathing long, slow, and deep. You can continue for up to an hour, or for as little as a few minutes … whatever feels comfortable to you, provided your doctor advises this practice.

LOWER DIAMOND MUDRA

What It Will Do for You

Lower Diamond Mudra purifies, strengthens, and stabilizes the Subpersonal Chakras. It releases negative energy from the basal and sacral (sexual) chakras, and assists in grounding to the Halls of Amenti in the center of New Earth.

The Great Void and Me . compiled by Alice B. Clagett

Dear Ones,

Here are gleanings from my reading on the Great Void, as well as some of my own thoughts on the topic …

THE GREAT VOID

In “Creating Affluence,” Deepak Chopra describes how material things are composed of atoms, and atoms are composed of subatomic particles, and how these are but energetic changes in a huge field in which information and energy are at play. He then characterizes information and energy at play as thought … which would presuppose intelligence. Thus we might conclude that we and all things physical are all but thoughts in the mind of God …

Citation: “Creating Affluence: The A-to-Z Steps to a Richer Life Paperback” a book by Deepak Chopra, copyright 1993.

Chinese Buddhism terms the Great Void as non-obstructive. Matter has form, and thus is obstructive. The Great Void is like a foundation upon which matter can be at play …

A person named Huangbo Xiyun had a thought that the reason people have chatterbox minds is that the fear their minds will be engulfed by the Great Void. What they do not realize, Huangbo Xiyun said, is that it is a person’s mind is the Great Void.

In “Ageless Body, Timeless Mind,” Deepak Chopra speaks of the ‘invisible intelligence’ that forms the fundament of the visible, material world. He speaks of the empty space, or Void, inside atoms as comprising this invisible intelligence.

It is this intelligence that organizes the human body and keeps it healthy. The flow of this intelligent energy is termed Prana … or ‘life force’. Through pranayam … the ancient Indian practices of prolonging or withholding or slowing the breath … we can direct this energy to heal and rejuvenate the body …

The Great Void is not just what we greet when we pass on from this physical life. Quite the contrary! The Great Void is all around every moment we’re alive. It’s the prana in air, too … the life energy that enters our lungs when we breathe, circulates through our cells, and keeps our physical body functioning.

But the physical body, which seems so solid, is almost completely made up of the same Great Void that surrounds us. So, the great saints could nourish their bodies directly with the prana in air … without breathing. According to them, all it took was recognizing that prana is available everywhere. Even at the moment of death. Especially then!

So if we notice how the Great Void is keeping us alive, sustaining our bodies and nourishing our Spirits right now, and in every moment, how are we going to be frightened of that same sustaining, uplifting and nourishing force at the moment of death? Not possible! But the trick is … how to notice it right now?

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

Dear Ones,

I would like to talk to you today about Desire and the place where many of us are right now in the Awakening process.

This is about the nature and importance of Desire (which is the function of the astral body) in our current process of mastering the fourth dimension (i.e., the astral plane) and coming into our true power as human beings in the fifth dimension …

KAMA-MANAS

Over the holidays, I was reading  “The Astral Body and Other Astral Phenomena,” a book compiled by Arthur E. Powell, which, as I understand it, consists mainly of channeling of the work of the ascended master Djwhal Khul.

The part I was reading was so deep that I only read a couple of pages on the function of the astral body …

Citation: “The Astral Body and Other Astral Phenomena,” compiled by Arthur E. Powell, published 1927, Quest Book edition 1973, copyright The Theosophical Publishing House, London, Ltd. 1965 … pages 23, 24 and 26

I am sorry to say that, due to copyright restrictions, I cannot quote this passage, which I feel is a very important one. If you are able to obtain a copy of the book and take a look at the three pages cited above, I feel certain it will deepen your understanding on the topics I have presented below.

For me, reading the passage acted as a ‘springboard’ into a merging of the new Ascension knowledge with the older tradition of Theosophy. So you will find below references to the passage in Powell’s book, with my own thoughts on how Theosophical lore represents an astral-realm bridge of understanding, that may help today’s very secular-oriented society deal with the Ascension symptoms and clair abilities they are beginning to experience.

We human beings here on Earth are passing from the merely physical and lower mental realms into a deeper understanding of the astral realms, preparatory to awakening to the fifth dimension, which, for most beings on Earth today, is unexplored territory, depending, as it does, on expansion of the human energy field beyond the causal realm.

The topics described in the above passage are of interest right now because knowing more about the astral body helps us to understand our journey at this moment. I will briefly glance over some of the topics presented by Powell …

The astral body has to do with Desire. Another word for Desire is the word Kâma. The notion of Kâma includes every sort of feeling, and not just thirst, or hunger, or desire to have sex. The Bible calls it ‘the lust of the flesh’ …

15 “Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.
16 “For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
17 “And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.” — 1 John 2 (KJV – public domain)

So as we human beings are journeying into a deeper Awareness of the astral plane, we are, in fact, encountering those emotions.

According to Powell, it is Kâma that binds us to the Duality Play, the world of sensory phenomena. Powell refers to the our animal nature as the ‘ape and the tiger’. The immediate context of this quote from Tennyson is …

“…Arise and fly
The reeling Faun, the sensual feast;
Move upward, working out the beast,
And let the ape and tiger die.”
–from Citation:In Memoriam,” by Alfred, Lord Tennyson, public domain

So then Powell goes on to speak about how the quality of desire is knit together with the quality of mind, or Manas, in a human being. Theosophists often refer to the union of Desire and Mind as the driving force of intelligence, Kâma-Manas.

I feel that, typically in men, you will find a greater ratio of Manas, or mind, in this balance, and typically in women, you will find a greater ratio of Kâma, or Desire. The two together create the emotional Awareness of human beings, without which we would never accomplish anything in the world. We could sit, and think … The Thinker, you know? … all day long, but without Desire, nothing would ever come forth into reality.

NEGATIVE EMOTIONS PREVENT CO-CREATION OF FIFTH DIMENSIONAL REALITY

Now, one definition of the fifth dimension is that we will all realize our innate ability as eternal Souls to become co-creators of reality. In the astral plane that we are engaging in right now, and becoming aware of, that quality of co-creation exists, but because it is only semi-aware, because the Awareness is stifled by the negative kilter of the emotions … what we were talking about: lust, greed, pride or ‘conceit’, anger or rage, and attachment (the ‘five thieves’ as they say in India: kaam, lobh, ahankar, krodh, moh) (1) … these negatively tilted renditions of the basic fabric of Space and Time and Awareness, which is Love and Light and Joy … this slight negative kilter creates a kind of unawareness in us, as true Awareness is of Love and Light and Joy.

So, when we engage in these emotions, we become relatively unaware, and consequently the reality that we create is an untrue, off-kilter version of what is. In the Christian aethos, in the Christian tradition, this off-kilter world expresses itself as a gradation of Light … from hellworlds, through Purgatory, on into the Light of Heaven.

CHOOSING POSITIVE EMOTIONS SO AS TO NAVIGATE TO THE HIGHER ASTRAL PLANES

Why is there this difference, this stratification of the astral plane? Because a being, as it begins to realize what it truly is, rises in vibration in the fourth dimension, from the depths of the hellworlds to the highest reaches of heaven.

How does it do this? Through the emotions. Years ago, Tom Kenyon (2), channeling the Hathors and the Hathor Archives, wrote that the emotion of gratitude, and the simple emotion of appreciation, would be what saved us through this process … what would save us from the nightmare realms of the fourth dimension. And I agree to that.

Peggy Black (3), who is his student, also mentions that gratitude is the thing that we need. That word is what gets us a discount on her courses, and that feeling is what gets us through the fourth dimension with ease and grace. And I agree completely with all of that. We can overcome the negativeness of our emotions by simply thinking about gratitude.

ON SURROUNDING THE NEGATIVE EMOTIONS WE EXPERIENCE WITH A FEELING OF PERSONAL SAFETY

One of the things that prevent us from expressing positive emotions is the feeling that we are not safe. Matt Kahn (4) has done quite an interesting video on this just recently, about how we can feel safe.

And his notion about that is, that for every unsafe emotion that we experience, including the list mentioned above … if I feel jealous, for instance, what we can say … if I understand him correctly … is, “I feel safe to be aware that I feel jealous at this moment.”

We could, as I understand it, use this same technique for every negative emotion that we feel. If I feel angry, enraged, whatever it is, what I could say is, “I feel safe to be aware that I feel angry at this moment.”

And by placing this positive tilt on the negative emotion, we can come through this with grace and ease. We can come through this well.

ON USING PRANAYAM, THE SCIENCE OF BREATH, TO OVERCOME NEGATIVE EMOTIONS

Yogi Bhajan, of 3HO, once gave a lecture on how desires arise automatically in us, and how pranayama, the science of the breath, helps us develop the personality and hone our intellect by expanding the aura, for the sake of prosperity, projection, and personality. For more on pranayama, see …

Link: Healthy Happy Holy Organization (3HO) … https://www.3ho.org/ Search the term: Pranayam

To get back to Matt Kahn, as I recall, he has also spoken recently about getting through this process of Awakening to the astral plane breath by breath … of slowing the breath and relaxing the body when we feel we have been attacked by others on the astral plane. So by becoming aware of our breathing, we can overcome the negative emotions, and also stop negative clairaudient chatter by not reacting as anticipated by any negative clair ‘sender’.

Keeping in mind that this sort of clair chatter often emanates from the untrained Lower Mental Bodies of those near and dear to us.

CONCLUSION

From this whole discussion, I would like to present just two facts …

The Nature of Desire

One is that Desire, in itself, is not a bad thing. If you imagine that a thought is a car, then Desire is like the gasoline that allows the car to go to the place we have in mind. In the same way, if we have a thought about co-creating the new reality, Desire is the power that expresses this thought as physical reality. So Desire, in itself, is not a bad thing. It is a necessary thing for us, as co-creators of reality.

Awareness of Negative Desire Is Essential to Developing Astral Plane Navigational Skills

And on the other hand, Awareness of negative Desire is essential to this process that we are going through now, because without it, we cannot rise to the fifth dimension, which is defined as a state of supreme joy, and love, and Light. So in order for that to happen, we have to become aware of when we are not feeling that way. And so, to create the true reality, we have to overcome desires that are not true.

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

On Replenishing the Pranic Reserve for Long Life . by Alice B. Clagett

Dear Ones,

ON REPLENISHING THE PRANIC RESERVE

This video is about replenishing the pranic reserve, which is located just beneath the rib cage, using a breathing technique (a pranayam). For the video thumbnail, I turned a sky photo upside down because, upside down, it reminded me of the dome-topped ‘pranic reserve’.

After the video is an extensively edited Summary, which I feel to be better stated than the video. Then after the Summary are additional sections not in the Video …

VIDEO BY ALICE

SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO

Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.

I would like to talk for a minute about replenishing the pranic reserve. You may know about the pranic column, the pranic ‘tube’, which is roughly equivalent, on the pranic energy level, to the spine. The pranic column is the bearer to the body of vital energy that we need, so as to stay alive.

In addition to this, there is the pranic reserve … which is, on the pranic energy level, a place located just under the bottom of the diaphragm, a muscle that lies under the rib cage, and forms an inverted U … a dome shape … when the stomach is tucked in … [points to ribs and diaphragm] … When the diaphragm muscle contracts, the dome shape flattens out, the chest volume increases, and the lungs inflate. When it relaxes, the opposite happens.

This diaphragm muscle is the top of the ‘pranic reserve’. The reserve extends from the diaphragm, down toward the stomach.

DESCRIPTION: black-and-white self portrait from just below the waist to top of head. Fluffy white clouds and sky in the shape of an inverted U, beginning at the bottom of the rib cage and extending downward for about 6 inches. Depth and width of the pranic reserve varies by person.

One way to activate and charge up the pranic reserve, is to do rapid, forceful breathing, while pumping the navel point in and out, for a few minutes. Do the breath through the nose, with the mouth closed. Then inhale completely, exhale completely, hold the air out, and draw all the internal organs up, so that they exert pressure on the diaphragm. When the held breath and the pressure become a little uncomfortable, then breathe in again.

While the breath is held out, you will feel the pranic reserve filling with energy.

I think that this breath also helps to purify and clean out the spleen chakra (aka splenic chakrasee below), which is located, on an energetic level, beneath the lowest left rib, and which bears vitality globules from the surrounding ethers or atmosphere into the body for distribution for health.

I believe that this breathing, which admittedly is difficult at first, and hard to master, has two benefits

    • It replenishes the pranic reserve,
    • And it clears and cleans out the spleen chakra, and restores it to perfect functioning.

In the old days, they say, the yogis, when they had perfected the technique of storing prana in the pranic reserve, could live for hundreds of years underground, with no air whatsoever … in a state of hibernation, or suspended animation … on the energy of the pranic reserve.

This is a good technique to master, even if the old tales about the hibernating yogis turn out to be a little far-fetched. It is also good if your energy has become depleted and this lack of energy threatens your health and well-being. It is important to get that back in balance the very first thing; a top priority.

How the Spleen Chakra was feeling to me, when I did the pranic reserve replenishment breathing exercise last night … It felt like a tube or organelle on the astral plane, that surfaces to the left side of the body, under the lowest left rib. An organelle that has a diaphragm on it that opens and closes, apparently through will power … but for most people, probably unconscious will power. So when we do the breathing exercise to fill the pranic cavity, it naturally opens up and lets the prana (the vitality globules) in.

That is just my thought on this. I am sure others will have more detail at later times.

[End of video]

THE LOCATION AND FUNCTION OF THE SPLEEN CHAKRA (AKA THE SPLENIC CHAKRA)

The spleen chakra, or spleen centre, is the seat of the kundalini energy. It energizes the sexual organs and heats the blood, which then heats the body. Most people mistakenly believe it is located between the navel point and the basal chakra. In point of fact, it is above and to the left of the navel point, beneath the lowermost left rib, and deep inside the body.

In this lateral view, the spleen chakra is labeled the ‘spleen centre’, Notice how it opens up deeper inside the body than the other major chakras …

Citation: “The Astral Body,” by A. E. Powell, 1973, available at http://www.amazon.com … “The Etheric Double: Diagram XIII: Man and His Etheric Centers,” by Arthur E. Powell, page 56. You can search Google for this image as well; at last look, it was on pinterest, but posting the link causes Google to block this web page, possibly due to complaints regarding copyright infringement by pinterest.

The names of the chakras in the above image are different from those generally used today. Here is a list, with today’s name first, followed by the name in the image, in parentheses …

  • Crown Chakra (Top of the Head Centre),
  • Third-Eye Point (Between the Eyebrows Centre),
  • Throat Chakra (Throat Centre),
  • Heart Chakra (Heart Centre),
  • Spleen Chakra or Organelle (Spleen Centre)
  • Sacral Chakra or Sex Chakra (missing in the Powell drawing, possibly due to the mores of the time),
  • Navel Point (Navel Centre), and
  • Basal Chakra (Base of the Spine Centre).

In this similar lateral view, the diaphragm and the nerves (including the splenic plexus) are labeled, but the chakras are not labeled. I have some reservations regarding the way in which the chakras are drawn in this image …

Image: Lateral view of the chakras, including the Spleen Chakra … http://www.minhtrietmoi.org/Theosophy/CWLeadbeater/Chakras-CWL_files/image015.jpg ..

In this frontal view, the chakras shown as circles, from top to bottom, are …

  • Crown Chakra, Third-Eye Point, Throat Chakra, Heart Chakra (depicted as slightly on the left side of the person, corresponding to the location of the physical heart), Spleen Chakra or Organelle (under the lowermost left rib, from the point of view of the person pictured, and not the person viewing the picture), Navel Point (with ‘spokes’) and Basal Chakra …

It seems to me that the above image may be showing the Basal Chakra where I would put the Sacral or Sex Chakra, and possibly mistaking the latter to be the Spleen Chakra or Organelle.

OTHER WAYS TO HEAL THE SPLEEN CHAKRA

I have found there are certain acupressure points associated with the Spleen Chakra. When these points are out of balance, they will cause a dull ache at the place where the energetic imbalance occurs. You can locate them that way; and in fact, you can locate any acupressure points that need work that way.

In the case of the Spleen Chakra, there are two major points on the underside of the lowest left rib, near the center of the rib. There is a row of minor points around the side of that same rib, proceeding all the way round to the back part of the same rib, where you will find two more major acupressure points.

  • If any of these points are aching, then beginning with the point that aches most, apply gentle fingertip pressure until the ache stops.
  • Then you will feel another ache on the same line of points (under the lowermost left rib). Keeping the pressure on the first point, place another fingertip on the new acupressure point and apply gentle pressure there as well.
  • After a time the first point will cease to ache. It may be that another point on this same line of points will begin to ache. If so, then release pressure on the first acupressure point. Continue to hold gentle fingertip pressure on the second point, and at the same time apply gentle fingertip pressure to the third point. And so on.

You may need to repeat this technique for a few days, until the energy balance in this line of acupressure points re-establishes itself.

It may be necessary to go to a doctor of Western medicine, with adjunctive help from a certified acupressurist or acupuncturist, if self-help does not return your body to balance.

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars
