What is a heritage turkey? A heritage turkey is free range grown and pasturized not frozen. There is surely a great difference in quality, taste and appearance. Some breeds are bourbon red, eastern wild, white holland and old fashioned bronze. Heritage are grown at various locations around the country. Reports of merchants being sold out by the first of November were common last year. You may locate your heritage turkey through LocalHarvest.org

Healing Reiki

Reiki definition (Ray Key) from Steve Murray's site: HealingReiki.com

Reiki is a powerful, precise system of healing which is believed to have originated in Tibet thousands of years ago. It accesses a universal life force energy. This energy, also known as prana, mana, chi, holy spirit and source, helps promote healing in all living things on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. The Reiki Master and Reiki Practitioner are channels for this healing energy. The word Rei as it is used in Reiki is interpreted to mean knowledge of spiritual consciousness which is all knowing. Ki is the life force. It is also called the vital force or the universal life force. This is the non-physical energy that animates, circulates and surrounds all living things. If there is a restriction in the flow of ones's Ki a vulnerability to illness occurs. When it is high and flowing freely better physical and mental health is experienced. Life force plays an important role in everything we do. It animates the body and is the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts and spiritual life.

How Does Reiki Heal?

Life force flows within the physical body through pathways called chakras, meridians and nadirs. We are alive because of this. It flows around us in a field of energy called the "Aura," nourishing the organs and cells of the body as it supports them in their vital functions. When this flow of life force is disrupted, it causes diminished function in the organs and tissues of the physical body. The life force is responsive to thoughts and feelings and becomes disrupted when we accept, either consciously or unconsciously, negative thoughts or feelings about ourselves. These negative thoughts and feelings attach themselves to our energy field, thus causing a disruption in the flow of our life force and diminishing the function of our body's organs and cells. Reiki heals by flowing through the affected parts of the energy field and charging them with positive energy. It raises the vibratory level of the energy field in and around the physical body causing the negative energy to break apart and fall away. This is where the negative thoughts and feelings are attached in so doing. Reiki clears, straightens and helps to heal the energy pathways, thus allowing the life force to flow in a healthy and natural way.

A Living Burial

Who would have thought? You can now go GREEN in the afterlife! Have your burial under a newly planted tree. A Tree Burial! Instead of rows of tombstones there will be a meadow with trees and flowers or a forest! The tree is you – living on – as it was your body that provided the nutrients it needed to grow tall and strong. Dust to dust; ashes to ashes as instructed in Genesis 3:19

1. eco-friendly

2. less expensive

3. natural alternative

4. bans toxic emblaming fluids

5. eliminates cemetery space and upkeep (saves water and eliminates fertilizers/chemicals)

6. no need for vaults/caskets/markers (saves expense, more environmentally friendly)

7. less intrusive for families (a more peaceful setting)

8. you live on to help the environment for your loved ones

It is estimated that the more than 22,500 cemeteries across the Unites States bury 827,060 gallons of embalming fluid every year. Embalming fluids can include chemicals and additives like formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, phenol, methanol, antibiotics, dyes, anti-edemic chemicals, and disinfectant chemicals. These substances eventually find their way into the soil where they can contaminate the local water supplies. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) considers Formaldehyde as a Class 1 Carcinogen. Does it make sense to risk the health of the living to preserve - for just a little while - the bodies of the deceased?

Frankly I like the idea of not being filled with and residing with all of these toxins in my afterlife and leaving all behind for my children and grandchildren to deal with. It really makes sense. It saves the environment and makes room for the masses of living on earth...
