The entries for this week’s Carnival of Healing were very enjoyable to read. Thank you all for contributing. While I’ve put my favorites upfront, the remainder of the articles are listed by category for your convenience.

MY TOP 5
‘Choose the Companionship of Positive People Who Inspire You’ advises author Tupelo Kenyon at http://www.tupelokenyon.com wisely. “Life is too short to share your valuable time with people who drain your energy.” I love this ‘how to’ article.
Healing occurs more naturally when pain is not thought of as enemy. The focus is no longer about avoiding, and instead about what is desired or allowed. Www.loving-awareness.org ‘s article on the allowing of pain.http://www.loving-awareness.org/2007/09/01/the-allowing-of-pain/ is definitely one of my most favorite articles submitted. I enjoy reading it. Thank you, author Matthew Spears.
On http://ananga.squarespace.com/ananga-living-by-design-blog/, author Ananga Sivyer in Is Stress Keeping you at Boiling Point? offers Three Quick Tricks to Turn Down the Heat. I thought this was one of the best entries in the batch I received.
Todd at ‘We The Change’ (http://www.WeTheChange.com) offers an article the 5 greatest foods for your health at http://www.wethechange.com/the-5-greatest-foods-for-your-health/ A new blog with a good article. Check it out.

HOLISTIC HEALTH
(food, nutrition, exercise)
Jeni at www.SavvySkin.com writes a knowledgeable article on how to prevent Melasma (hyper-pigmentation) in her article http://www.savvyskin.com/how-to-prevent-melasma.
This is a real useful read for women who use birth control pills, who are pregnant or experience other hormone changes.
WELLNESS
(overall well-being, subtle vibrational work such as Reiki, excercise such as yoga)
Kevin Fleming from the Satellite TV Guru reports at
http://satellitetvguru.net/wellness-channel-launches-on-dish-network/
that Veria TV, the Natural Wellness Channel, Launches on Dish Network.
SPIRITUALITY
(god, angels, view on deeper meaning of life)
David B. Bohl from http://www.slowdownfast.com promotes music for our soul in his short article at http://www.slowdownfast.com/blog/going-back-to-the-well-using-what-works-for-you-music-hath-charms-to-sooth/
SELF-EMPOWERMENT
(overcoming challenges, how-to’s, anything that makes you say ‘good for them’.)
You got to love Raymond David Salas‘ article at zenchillcom.blogspot.com which explains how he used Story Waters’ 30-day-surrender technique to make ‘every day feel like my birthday’. Check out “How to discover your destiny” (http://zenchillcom.blogspot.com/2007/07/how-to-discover-your-destiny.html) . I don’t know about you, but when I spot the word ‘destiny’ these days I usually click away as so much of that stuff is bowwowwow. So, while initially being ‘put off’ by yet another ‘destiny’ article, this one actually was interesting. Intriguing in fact.
Well, I appreciate www.whatithinkabout.com blog’s insightful article http://www.whatithinkabout.com/why-you-should-show-appreciation/ on why, when and how to show appreciation. Thanks to the author Warren Wong.
Bob Crawford of www.bobcrawfordonline.com/serendipitywrote at ‘Create Your Day the BOB Way! Part One: Your Morning’ about one of life’s basic questions: “Are we human beings truly capable of creating our own future?” He asserts that we must manifest our desires if we are to have any chance of experiencing true peace and happiness in our life. An interesting article.
OTHER ASPECTS OF HEALING
(complementary therapy such as aromatherapy, other)
This article is a nice contrast to the above one by Ananga.
Marcella Chester of http://abyss2hope.blogspot.com wrote in her article http://abyss2hope.blogspot.com/2007/10/overreaction-to-irate-and-clumsy.htmlHighlights various situations where people in authority respond irresponsibly to irate or clumsy behavior of others. This is a survivor of aggression’s contemplation of abuse of power. It stirs emotion.
Author Ada Ozoh at http://www.menopauselifestyle.com contributes an article http://www.menopauselifestyle.com/blog/techniques-of-massage/ which explains the 4 basic techniques of massage and offers information about the use of aromatherapy in massage. In particular, it includes a list of essential oils that are useful during menopause.
