Guest guest Posted August 10, 2009 Report Share Posted August 10, 2009 Wow maria that is wonderful. You are a wonderful and wise friend also. Teaching children like that is a gift to this world. Young people need people like you. To just talk to them like human beings. When I teach art I too try to get across to them that is a way to create to heal to not be embarrassed and to keep on trying. When they create a canvas that looks like the subject we are working on they are so proud they almost burst. They go from ages 7 to 70 but many teenagers come in the summer months.

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2009 Report Share Posted August 14, 2009 jill that's an interesting request. I have never thought of that. or I if I have I have forgotten. and I wouldn't be surprised if I forgot. that's what I am best at. : ) Joy ________________________________ To: fibromyalgiacured Sent: Monday, August 10, 2009 1:11:15 PM Subject: Re: " Brain fog " In the past I requested from Heavenly Father a bubble 9 feet in diameter be placed around me. One color that helps is purple at the edge and ask for other colors that may be needed. Crystalline white is very good and of course yellow-gold, shades of green for healing. I had forgotten about using that - I did it while dealing with healing from DID and it did help. You can also ask how long it needs to remain and of course give thanks.
