One of my emails this morning took me to this amazing statement:

“Did you know that more “incurable” diseases, including some cancers, are being effectively dealt with using the new Alternative Medicine than ever before?”

That’s a jaw-dropping quote from the page about a Wellness Revolution Summit webinar series that starts tomorrow and runs through mid-December. I really thought you should know about it.

Here’s the information page: Wellness Revolution

It’s free. My advice is to sign up, and then you’ll get a schedule with more information, and you can pick and choose which events you attend. Or choose all of them!

Personally, I see a number of people/disciplines I particularly want to hear:

Nick Ortner on EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique — an incredibly effective, easy method for healing emotional and spiritual issues that anyone can use for themselves or otheres. More info here, click on About EFT & This Site on the left http://www.eftuniverse.com/ )

David Wolfe, because eating raw foods is an extremely effective way to get healthier, and for many, regain health. I’ve not found the right key to an all-raw food diet for myself, but I’d like to. In the meantime, I try for a “high raw” diet, 2 of 3 meals a day. If you’re not familiar with raw foods, I want to tell you this is way beyond carrot and celery sticks. These raw foodists have created thousands if not hundreds of thousands of wonderful recipes that are delicious. In honor of the upcoming holiday, two of my favorites are raw pumpkin pie (yes, raw pumpkin!), and cranberry sauce.

Leanne Ely because I have two of her Saving Dinner cookbooks and we use them quite regularly. Not raw food, but simple everyday meals with shopping lists that make up a week’s worth of dinners at a time. I don’t use it that way, I pick and choose. But since I can only cook with a recipe in hand and don’t have a creative bone in my body where food is concerned (except to simplify recipes once I’ve made them once or twice), I’ve found her books quite valuable.

Symeon Roger to see if he’s got any useful advice for my particular home-based business.

Any of the energy medicine speakers. EFT is energy medicine (it accesses the acupuncture meridians for the emotional healing), and I see Energy Medicine as definitely 21st Century alternative healing.

And Iyanla VanZant ’cause I’m a fan.

Oh, and the anti-aging folks, now that I’ve decided to live to 120.

What about you?? Who are you most interested in seeing? I’d love to know. Share what you plan to see along with what your thoughts are afterward.

I am sick of Republican lies.

That’s all they have is lies. Lies about who they are (see Gov. Sanford, Sen. Craig, Rep. Foley, Rep. Vitter, Sen. Ensign, and a whole troop of others), lies about what they stand for (same list), lies about what their agenda is (see “Family Values” plus same list), lies about us and what we stand for (see every word that comes out of their mouths about Democrats), lies about their own legislation when they propose it (see Orwell and such stellar examples as the Clear Skies Act of 2003) , and lies about our legislation (see every word that comes out of their mouths about Democratic legislation).

And I’m sick of the BIG LIE Boehner, McCain and others keep trotting out, the one that puts the American people resoundingly against healthcare reform.

Brrzzzzt. Not true. No way, no how. False. A lie of the highest order. Couldn’t be farther from the truth, in fact.

Oh, it’s true that the American people aren’t totally crazy about THIS bill, this particular Senate bill, but they absolutely do approve of and want heathcare reform and especially reform with the public option.

“Even Republicans favor the public option when given an accurate definition of it,” a fact which also offers a gigantic clue as to why Republicans have to lie again and again and again. Without lies, they’ve got nothing, and would have little (and dwindling) support of any kind for any thing because when the people genuinely understand an issue, they consistently favor the Democratic position on it.

At least 4 different surveys showed that the public option had more support than opposition.

But what do we hear from Boehner and every other GOPer who is given a mic? That the Democrats are going to suffer massive defeat in November for “going against the will of the American people,” which actually is true in a sense they don’t intend: the Democrats did go against the will of the American people by not giving us a public option.

Of course, you gotta love orange John for his touching concern about Democrats holding Congress through the mid-term elections this fall. We’re absolutely sure he has our best interests at heart. Methinks Rahm had it right:

“The Republican leadership,” Mr. Emanuel said, “has made a strategic decision that defeating President Obama’s health care proposal is more important for their political goals than solving the health insurance problems that Americans face every day.”
