#MustangMedicine May 27th 10 pm EST on tweetchat- Energy Tapping

Energy tapping is a powerful tool for good. My first exposure to energy tapping was through a sports psychologist.  If you happen to find yourself at any sports competitions, observe closely and you will find there are people tucked away in quiet corners tapping away.  I found it to be so useful in many areas of life.

There is EFT, TFT, and Freedom Now as far as I can recall. There are short forms, long forms and variations. All have their place and I speak from experience when I say they are all effective.

For our purposes in #MustangMedicine I think the short form will be perfect and you may like an even shorter form I worked with during a wonderful session with @Jenuinehealing

If individuals are feeling it is not sufficient than further exploration of the long form and additional techniques may prove the key.

While it may seem on the surface that wild horses and their advocates are hitting brick walls, I have to say since joining forces in this way I am feeling the most peaceful, powerful and in control as I ever have in an out of control situation. I feel things changing on an energetic level and I am drawn to continue and expand upon it. America’s wild horses and the land they live on are too important.

I keep reminding myself that I cannot see what is happening behind the scenes and behind closed doors. I don’t know what the bigger plan is. Often times in my life when I was convinced of the way I wanted things to work out, a better way emerged when I allowed it to. Tapping helped.  Clearing the way for good things to happen for the wild horses and the people who care so much about their significance in what is happening in our world and in our lives.

This past week especially I have had to remind myself of that in regard to what is happening to America’s beloved wild horses at the hands of the government and some people. The lawsuit pending in federal court that would free the captured wild horses, at least those who have lived through their ordeal, was dismissed on a technicality. There were, in addition, some things that seemed pretty fishy and outright illegal, were popping up around the lawsuit ruling as well.

In light of these things it is important to use #MustangMedicine to its fullest. Wild horses are tough and they are tuned in. They are a shining example.

Much information is found on the web about energy tapping, here is a brief guide to the areas that you tap on and how to do it. You can’t go wrong.

I always begin with 2 things:

1 - I rate my discomfort on a scale of 1-10.  How much discomfort do I have with this issue/statement/affirmation. Give it a number.

2 - I rub the area over my heart in a circular motion and say “even though I (state problem/issue), I deeply and completely love and accept myself” and then end with what is called a karate chop- which is tapping the sides of both side of your hands, palm side up on the pinky side.  If ever you feel discomfort, this single move will help a great deal.

Then I would do the short form (or long form of tapping or a new really simple version.) see sequences

Below are some ideas for examples of what you might say- be very freestyle and you‘ll be surprised at what happens. Things that may be blocking you will be begin to come up.

The Very Short Form- Tap on the top of your head and tap over your heart. While doing this you say positive statement or releasing statement.  Such as- I release the suffering of the wild horses…..I release my need for control of the situation facing the wild horses or my favorite- I choose to see that there is a positive outcome for the wild horses.

Regular Short Form: Tap on top of the head, above eyebrow-either one, side of the eye, under the eye, under the nose, the chin, the collarbone, under the arm. All the while you are tapping you are talking about the issue.

Other Examples -Such as – even though I hate the govt for what they are doing to our wild horses, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.  Even though I feel powerless……even though I feel angry…..even though I feel scared…….whatever you are feeling and work through it while tapping.

This is great for all areas of life and maybe the wild horses are bringing you there to be healed and freed.

They are freedom and power personified as well as how to live in harmony, which is exemplified in how they live in community.

When you are finished- Then rate how you feel on a scale of 1-10 and see if it has changed.

The idea is to free up emotions from a space and make room for change in the situation.   

For our purposes the long form would be too involved but I encourage everyone to learn it.

Try tapping or at least the heart rub and karate chop and you will be amazed at what they can do.

#MustangMedicine May 20,2010-10 pm EST on tweetchat-Focus Agenda

I thought it would be nice to begin the first #MustangMedicine group meeting with something very special.  

Please do these if you choose and at your leisure.

We will join together on Thursday’s beginning on May 20th in tweechat at 10 pm EST and 7 pm PST.

Use hashtag #MustangMedicine.

I would like to share two techniques which I believe can help us to send our love and positive thoughts to the wild horses, and to anyone involved with the horses and burros. The techniques will also help us open a line of communication from the wild horses to us and gain their wisdom to help us in our lives.

The techniques are valuable tools that can be used in any aspect of your life and possibly the situation that wild horses are facing reminds you of an area in your life that needs love and healing. The horses are our close allies and they are here to help us as well.

Then I would like to finish with any experiences that anyone would like to share on the vision quest I had written. I have heard from several people who had profound experiences with it. I reposted the vision quest at the bottom of this page for convenience.   

The first technique is opening the healing channel of compassion called heartlink to Angels and human heartlink. I learned the first one about 6 years ago. The second is a technique I learned about 17 years ago and is called the Golden Staircase. Both techniques have been of great help to me.

                     Heartlink to Angels

Opening the Healing Channel of Compassion

From: Integrated Energy Therapy by Steven J. Thayer, The Center of Being, Inc.

Heartlinks are a divine offering from Angel Ariel to humankind. A heartlink is an energy cord or channel that we establish between our heart center and the heart center of another. Heartlinks serve as a tool that fill us to the overflowing with integrated energy (the angel energy of compassion), and we then share this energy with others. There are two types of heartlinks, angelic and human.

An angelic heartlink is an energy cord we send vertically from our heart up through our throat, third eye and crown chakras, to connect with the heart of our angel of healing. Just follow this simple 5 step procedure to establish your heartlink

1.   Bring your awareness to your heart center

2.   In the way that is perfect and right for you, offer a prayer of gratitude to your higher power and to your angel of healing.

3.   Project a golden energy cord from your heart up through your throat, third eye and crown chakra and up into the highest realms of the universe with the intent of connecting to the heart of your own angel of healing.

4.   Start the flow of energy in the heartlink by sending the energy of love and gratitude up the heartlink to your angel.

Open your heart, and take in the love that your angel is sending to you. Your angel’s love will be ten times stronger than the love you sent. Bring the love into your heart, and let it continue to build until you feel the energy overflow.

Automatic Activation: Once you have performed these 5 steps, they will be instantly performed by your subconscious mind each time you touch your thumb to the middle finger of either hand.

 

                    Human Heartlink

A human heartlink is an energy connection that you establish with a human (animal) soul. The soul can be in the physical body or the realm of spirit. The steps to establish a human heartlink are as follows:

1.   Establish an angelic heartlink

2.   Bring to mind an image of the being to whom you are creating a human heartlink

3.   Send forth a golden energy cord from your heart to their heart.

4.   Start the flow of energy in the heartlink by sending the energy of love and gratititude from your heart over the heartlink to their soul.

Let the energy continue to flow down from your angelic heartlink, through  your heart and through your human heartlink.

 

                  Golden Staircase

In this technique you visualize yourself at the bottom of a tall golden staircase.  You ascend the steps of the golden stairs and at the top of the stairs there is a door. You open the door and see the person or being you wish to communicate with. You then speak with them, sharing your thoughts and feelings. It is as my dad used to say, heart speaks to heart. And it is a great was to communicate with someone when they are at a distance.

 

Vision Quest

The air is cool and clear as you set out on the path.  It meanders along ancient stone walls and as you walk along the grass carpeted path you feel a sense of purpose.  You are relaxed and calm but energized. 

The twigs and fallen leaves crunch under your feet in a rhythmic cadence.  You hear all the sounds of nature and with each step you feel more and more connected to your source.

 The path leads past rivers and waterfalls and opens up in a vast meadow.  As you cross the meadow you notice all the birds and animals peacefully co existing with you.  You become aware that you can see each and every blade of grass moving. 

You hear wild horses in the distance and are eager to follow where they are leading.  They take you to the edge of the meadow and you are now in a beautiful desert with skies of golden orange and clouds that seem to breathe with the earth. 

In the distance you see a faint campfire and are drawn to it.  The wild horses are leading you to the campfire. As you get closer you see there is a man sitting at the fire. He is surrounded by books and legal pads.  He seems relaxed but engaged in deep thought.  As you approach he sees you and smiles, genuinely happy to see you.  He stands and introduces himself to you – he will be hearing the legal case on the Calico Complex wild horses. 

He invites you to join him and recognizing you as someone who has understanding of the situation, he asks you to share your thoughts with him, so may have a better understanding. 

You share with him all your experiences with wild horses.  You share any and all experiences that you feel will help him make a wise, and if need be, a courageous decision in the case.   

There is all the time in the world for this exchange. He is listening and cares what you are saying.  He offers to share with you what he has written in his notes. 

You take time to listen to what he is sharing with you. 

When you feel the time is right you rise to leave.  He rises with you and you exchange a handshake or an embrace, with heartfelt gratitude that he has listened and shared. 

You take a moment or two to share your strength, courage and wisdom with him as he does with you.  As you leave for home, he sits again beside the fire and takes up his books.   The wild horses rejoin you.           

A nice addition to the vision quest could be to burn some sage which is a familiar smell to wild horses.

Compounding Efforts To Pass HR 503-Horse Slaughter Prohibition Bill

 

Compound energy is the most powerful force in the universe. If 10 people got 10 people, who in turn got 10 people to join in on a specific action, the volume would be very powerful. With that in mind, here is a

 

This is a note I received from a fellow equine advocate and I think it is a wonderful idea. For those who may not know this bill, HR 503 would amend the Horse Protection Act to prohibit shipping, transporting, moving, delivering, receiving, possessing, purchasing, selling or donation of horse or other equines to be slaughtered for human consumption and for other purposes.

We need to let our voices be heard to move this along. 

If you wish more details on what we are fighting to stop, here is a link. This may be tough to read, but there are no pictures only text and details on what is happening to horses. Please read and then think about making the calls to pass HR 503.

 

http://www.defendhorsescanada.org/pdf/didyouknow.pdf

 

This is the idea from fellow advocate :

I'd like to share an idea with you all. Every day I'm posting contact info for one member of the subcomittee where HR503 has been stalled. There are 16 members on the subcommittee. When I get to #16 I intend to start back again on #1, again and again and again, until we are heard and HR503 is moved along.

Will you join me by placing the daily committee member on your (FB) wall (or tweet it) and urge your friends to write, fax, and/or email this official to please pass HR503 to BAN HORSE SLAUGHTER in the US!!! . Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks!! For the HORSES!!!!

Insights from Klaus Hempfling on Horses & Man

I would like to share a letter from Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling that explains so much about horses and man.

In the past of human beings horses

have always been a symbol of how each individual deals with the world, with its challenges and threats. 

Formerly humans were together with horses, to be able to understand and deal with life in a better way.

All the mechanisms which the humans have created in modern times, were actually supposed to help. But it now becomes more and more obvious, how they are, in their own dynamic, turning against the humans – almost like an inevitable natural disaster. How vulnerable it has all become. A tiny country in Europe, actually of minor commercial importance, is facing national bankruptcy but the real threats are the ‘markets’, which are just about to ‘crack’ and eat up one of the strongest currencies on the globe – with profits of milliards for the global gamblers. Governments appear powerless.

A small cloud of ashes in the air paralyses the air traffic, today centre point of many areas of communication and trading. How immense are the threats. Unbelievable amounts of oil flow out in the Golf of Mexico and an environmental disaster of unforeseen dimensions is threatening. Technique, business, trading – the humans’ instruments are out of control. With unforeseen consequences for each individual, for nature and for humanity as such.

 

We are concerned with the horse – but the horse is concerned with the world. And that is the only reason at all why I personally went to the horses. It was told about one of the ancient Kings, that he was unable to rule his country, because he was not even able to handle his horse. At the end of the day a human always stands completely alone in front of a horse, in front of destiny or in front of the tremors of the world. And somehow that is, so our forefathers said, one and the same thing anyway. And the tremors of the world are meanwhile threatening to take on giant dimensions.

 

To mature and become a man, a boy of the Maasai people must kill a lion with bare hands. Many die in doing so, because they rely on their outer strength. Only he, who discovers and develops his inner strength and builds up on this, may accomplish the impossible. In the future, more and more, the absolute impossible will be expected from all of us. The signs are more than obvious – and isn’t it about time to ask how one should and could prepare for this? That might also be the reason why the theme ‘Horse’ is so present in the world in these times. For one, the horse is the devil’s foot. But for the other, it serves as reminder of that, which really counts; the essentials. And that is my focus, when I talk about horses. And that is the focus of the ancient sources of the world. They all recognized the horse as the main symbol of human freedom as such and as the symbol of the creative power and possibilities of each individual. And here lies the focus in the future.

In the light of the circumstances in the world I couldn’t leave it to remind of this once again. And I will continue doing so.

 

 

 

Warm regards

Your

Klaus Ferdinand Hempfling

#MustangMedicine

As I move along my personal journey amidst the energy that is with wild horses and the earth, I am remembering all the modalities of healing and atunement that I have learned and that have meant a great deal to me.  Horses, wild and domestic have always been the conduit for me in terms of personal growth and service.  By the amount of incredible people reaching out to me on this issue with amazing loving and grace, I am moved to organize and develop what I will call #MustangMedicine. 

I learned a few years ago through specific instances in my life with horses that horses are not victims and are in fact our greatest allies and teachers.  The following quote by Henry Beston expresses my sentiments with crystal clear clarity.  

We need another and a wiser and perhaps a more mystical concept of animals. Remote from universal nature, and living by complicated artifice, man in civilization surveys the creature through the glass of his knowledge and sees thereby a feather magnified and the whole image in distortion. We patronize them for their incompleteness, for their tragic fate of having taken form so far below ourselves. And therein we err, and greatly err. For the animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours they move finished and complete, gifted with extensions of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren, they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth.

My beIief is that by using #MustangMedicine to explore all the wonderful healing modalities in the context of earth, animals, and importantly the wild horse issue we may begin to understand their true meaning and purpose.

This in no way should detract from #WildHorseHealing but is a separate avenue to understand and incorporate the wonderful gift the horses are sharing with us.  It can be an adjunct for those who desire.

There are so many options to us in this arena that we do justice to the best part of ourselves as human beings and to the gifts we have in our lives.  I am excited by the infinite possibilities. 

I will post the energetic modality/focus every Saturday for those interested, to play with.  We can meet on tweetchat on Thursdays- 10 pm EST and 7 pm PST.  The hashtag is #MustangMedicine.  

It’s a great way to learn and to share as well as heal.

I will post later today for Thursday, May 20th and maybe even have a full  outline of all the options we have. A cosmic menu for sure J

#WildHorseHealing Vision Quest/Meditation

As I am preparing myself for our second #wildhorsehealing meeting on tweetchat, I feel it would be a good time to clarify some of my thoughts on this next installment.  

This type of energy work focused within a group is very powerful and as such needs to be treated with the utmost integrity and positive intention.  

It is always better to open up the channels of love and understanding without trying to influence others free will. To do so would be a form of manipulation and any misuse of energy, even if it is done innocently will be returned.

It is important to not pray to sway others but to open channels with love and understanding, so the best possible outcome for all concerned will be achieved.

I have included a meditation I would like to share with you. It came to me as I was sharing space with my equines. Please feel free to use this as a guide or a jumping off point for your own vision quest.  A nice addition may be to burn some sage as this is native to the wild horse’s home ranges. 

Feel free to do your meditation/vision quest at any time that is convenient. Prior to the tweetchat meeting, try to take some time to center yourself and tune into the group. Always ask for personal protection when entering into an energetic space. 

We will be meeting Monday, May 17 at 10 pm EST-7 pm PST.

To participate, go to tweetchat, log in with your twitter name and enter the #hashtag #WildHorseHealing in the space provided.     

Meditation/Vision Quest

The air is cool and clear as you set out on the path.  It meanders along ancient stone walls and as you walk along the grass carpeted path you feel a sense of purpose.  You are relaxed and calm but energized. 

The twigs and fallen leaves crunch under your feet in a rhythmic cadence.  You hear all the sounds of nature and with each step you feel more and more connected to your source.

The path leads past rivers and waterfalls and opens up in a vast meadow.  As you cross the meadow you notice all the birds and animals peacefully co existing with you.  You become aware that you can see each and every blade of grass moving. 

You hear wild horses in the distance and are eager to follow where they are leading.  They take you to the edge of the meadow and as if by magic, you are now in a beautiful desert with skies of golden orange and clouds that seem to breathe with the earth. 

In the distance you see a faint campfire and are drawn to it.  The wild horses are leading you to the campfire. As you get closer you see there is a man sitting by the fire. He is surrounded by books and legal pads.  He seems relaxed but engaged in deep thought.  As you approach he sees you and smiles, genuinely happy to see you.  He stands and introduces himself to you – he will be hearing the legal case on the Calico Complex wild horses. 

He invites you to join him and recognizing you as someone who has understanding of the situation, he asks you to share your thoughts with him, so he may have a better understanding. 

You share with him all your experiences with wild horses.  You share any and all experiences that you feel will help him make a wise, and if need be, a courageous decision in the case.   

There is all the time in the world for this exchange. He is listening and cares what you are saying.  He offers to share with you what he has written in his notes. 

You take time to listen to what he is sharing with you. 

When you feel the time is right you rise to leave.  He rises with you and you exchange a handshake or an embrace, with heartfelt gratitude that he has listened and shared.  

You take a moment or two to share your strength, courage and wisdom with him as he does with you.  As you leave for home, he sits again beside the fire and takes up his books.   The wild horses rejoin you.
