The boring thread.....

It did but I felt a bit of a nit with a stone stuck on my head ... speaking of which, poor Mr M walked into a kitchen cupboard door this afternoon. He'd left it open by mistake. Poor luv.

It's when you stand up and hit your head on an open cupboard door that really hurts!!

Oh it hurt him ... I tried to offer Love and sympathy and he got ratty so it must have done.

Adding the toxic shock of one's better half making out they care is disturbing at the best of times.

Such cynicism .. mind, that's what he said.

I've got loads of tumbled crystals at home ... and one or two nicer chunks of amethyst.
I used to be quite into crystal healing years ago and one suggestion to treat a headache was to stick some amethyst on your forehead with a plaster.
I can vouch that it worked,  At least the pain moved and I got a stiff neck instead,

I started learning about them years ago too, Mort,  and Reiki as well,  but eventually I gave most of my books away to a lady who wanted to learn too.   Still got my crystals though,  including a beautiful piece of Amethyst which I keep wrapped in a drawer so that it doesn't fade,  as Amethyst does in the sun.   Still got several pendants too.
Haven't played with them for a few years now though.

Can't say that this stuff has tickled my interest.  But, I did try some astral projection hypnosis many years ago.  Don't recall it working for me.

But, given other experiences, it remains true that "There are more things in Heaven and Earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy"

Thus my mind remains open.

Dex,  I believe that humans,  no matter how educated they are,  will never know everything.

When my Gertie was only 8 weeks old she was diagnosed by two Vets  that she had a  faulty Mitral Valve.
I was advised to return her to the breeder.   I loved that pup so much and didn't want to send her back and never know what became of her,   so I asked for a referral to a veterinary Cardiologist instead.
The appointment came through, and I took her for a heart scan.   My Vets diagnosis was confirmed.

To cut a long story short,  I took her for hands-on healing almost every week for the next 12 months.
Then around her 1st birthday she had to go back to the specialist for a check up plus another scan.
I was then given the news that her dicky ticker was now perfect.

My own vet was really surprised when I told him, and got his stethoscope out to have a listen to chest.   
He agreed with the specialist.  Her heart was beating normally again.   
My vet admitted then, that he hadn't expected her to live, and that is why he told me to take her back to the people who bred her.

On her birthday last April,  she was 10 years old.
