CHAKRAPUNCTURE
I am pleased to announce a new web site dedicated
to the study and practice of chakrapuncture. I
had intimated the name 'chakrapuncture' in my book 'Acupuncture and the
Chakra Energy System' but had not used it officially to describe how acupuncture
may be performed with the chakra energy system. Several months ago I was
approached by M. Michel Hamilton of Lorient, Brittany, France seeking
my permission to translate my book into French. He painstakingly translated
and produced the manuscript and finally received permission to publish
by North Atlantic Books. He now has a publisher and it should be out within
the next couple of months. It has been a remarkable achievement.
WEB SITE
What is even more remarkable is that he has put together a web site dedicated
to the practice of chakrapuncture that is in both English and French.
On the web site you will find details of my work, including my other books
and posters, plus essays on the aura, chakras, magnets and copper/zinc
needles. There is also a Forum in French and English that you are welcome
to make a contribution.
To see a web site dedicated to your work is a very humbling experience
and I will remain forever grateful to Michel for doing it. Please visit
this new web site and experience it yourself.

RADIO SHOW
I shall be on the Colin Lively show, part of the 'Here women talk' network
at 1400 EST (1900 BST) on Friday 26 August. We shall be discussing Scoliosis
and how it may be treated using the various modalities of exercise, surgery
and all the complementary medicine methods. P.S. This
was a hoot!!
AMAZON.CO.UK
Oh dear - what a shambles these people are! I wanted to advertise my 3
posters through their web site - simple enough task you may say. The 'Chakra'
poster went into the 'Books' section as it had a previous ASIN number
through Amazon.com. The other two though, as they are original and did
not have a previous ASIN number have had to be categorized under 'Home
and Kitchen'. Now who will try and look for a medical poster (called a
'posture' by their Client help section [durr]) under Home and Garden.
It's the equivalent of putting a car for sale in the newspaper under the
heading of 'Refrigerators'. I shall see how it goes for about a month
then may pull out graciously.
NEW BOOK
The new book on Light Touch Reflextherapy is slightly behind schedule,
due to one thing and another. I hope to complete it by the end of the
year and publish Spring 2012 - The posture (sorry) though is out already.
I may go through the self publishing route.
SURGERY
I am
having cervical spinal surgery at the end of 2011 and I have now retired
from clinical work after 44 years of practice - scary! I should be able
to resume teaching Spring 2012 and will also make haste to complete the
LTR book.
NEW BOOKLET IDEA!
I
have decided to write a booklet aimed at the lay person. Following a 'eureka'
and '0' level in the bl****ng obvious moment, I realised that the important
acupoints could also be designated a homeopathic remedy - simply because
each deals with the same symptoms. e.g. ST 36 could be said to be the
Arsenicum point as both can help gastritis. Please note this is NOT homeopuncture.
It shouldn't take too long to write before proceeding to the important
tome of 'The Holistic Spine'
