November 2021 In a talk by Melissa Spas (who serves as the Director of Education and Engagement for an organization called the Lake Institute on Faith and Giving) she commented that “the dominant expectation of our economy is scarcity and competition, and the shadow side of scarcity is greed.” Scarcity, competition and greed – does that ring true for the pandemic situation we are currently facing? Biblical scholar Marcus Borg uses the term “domination system” in his writings, which he says refers to “what is commonly called ‘systemic injustice’ [...]

Early and Post Tx, un-Vax’d and Post-Vax, 5G October 2021 Intro Comments In all the many years I have looked at vaccinations, I have had one straightforward and strong message: Vaccines should never be mandated or required, especially for children. Immunization should always be individually chosen and only after consideration of all aspects of the vaccine – informed consent of the individual, parent or caregiver. The choice for each person to receive a vaccination, should be undertaken under the unbiased (non-peer or dictated) advice of their trusted health practitioner [...]

September 2021 Let me begin with a brief explanation and apology. The weeks of August and early September have been life transforming. My Mom and I managed to safely make our road-trip trek to Edmonton and back home only to find that it will be our last vacation or “escape”. Our Prime Minister called a snap general federal election to be held today (Sept. 20); new outbreaks of COVID have intensified even though nearly 80% of the eligible provincial population has received at least one jab; Health Canada changed [...]

A Guest Commentary To Vaccinate in Times Like These? A Few Energy Medicine Notes By Ulrike Güdel, MD For 17 months one small virus had us firmly in control. The power of the widespread media pictures of coffins, overcrowded intensive care units and the daily special broadcasts have been embedded into our collective memory, just like the evening hand clapping on balconies for the courageous nurses and orderlies. The fact that thousands of these “heroes” gave up their jobs last year because the working hours [...]

August 23, 2021 In spite of the influx of journals, emails and newsletters during my time away from my desk, I have stuck with my determination to avoid doing another translation this month. I have however received a number of very interesting links and commentaries from around the world. It seems that the countries where the most stringent restrictions and most “effective” vaccination campaigns have been waged, are the countries with the most virus challenges during the current times. Here are a few important links from our colleagues. From [...]

August 2021 A Personal Odyssey First a look in the dictionary: To compromise is “a settlement in which each side gives up some demands or makes concessions. As in an adjustment of opposing principles, systems, etc. by modifying some aspects of each and the result of such an adjustment.” But, to be compromised is different: “To settle or adjust by concessions on both sides; to lay open to danger, suspicion, or disrepute.” Here, the dictionary continues “to weaken or give up (one’s principles, ideals, etc.) as for reasons or [...]

July 2021 Here in our part of Canada summer has exploded with extreme heat, hundreds of raging wildfires, our beautiful blue skies clouded with hazy smoke and the so-called easing of virus restrictions. Sadly, however it seems that with these changes in restrictions, a whole new form of division and separation is growing. Now it seems that differences of race, gender, religious affiliation and political belief have little meaning and are finally blended into a strong and self-righteous diversity. And who is this incredibly socially aware group to whom [...]

Research and Quotes from the Industry, Along with a few Comments from this Peanut Gallery: June 2021 Spring passes to summer once again and here we are. We’re still locked down, still being vaccinated and tested and the narrative has become nauseatingly repetitive and authoritarian. Will we ever again have the opportunity to stand up, say “NO!” and return to a free, private and “medically” unrestricted lifestyle? I have kept my eye on current journals, media and publications while I spent the past weeks working through some 35-40 years [...]

May 2021 As we roll into this third week of May 2021 we are marking Week #61 since the start of the pandemic lockdowns and restrictions. In spite of the vaccine rollouts, many countries remain controlled under ever tighter and more restrictive regulations, while others appear to be easing almost completely. It is definitely confusing, but more than anything frustrating for those of us willing, able and ready to move forward. I would like to think that we are finally turning a corner since the virus should naturally lessen [...]

14 April 2021 Dear Colleagues and Friends, April showers, along with springtime sunshine and flowers beckon all of us in Canada and several other countries as we face ever tighter and more restrictive regulations around the so-called pandemic. I cannot help but wonder why the authorities repeat the ineffective policy of lockdowns and restrictions over and over again, but yet still expect a different result. As more and more people question or protest these restrictive policies, we can watch a greater escalation of the fear and propaganda leading toward [...]
