The Shamballa 13D Master Workshop in Raleigh was awesome. Here are a few comments from the attendees. The next 13D workshop is November 5-8 in Asheville, NC.

Nadine M. (Cary, NC)
I highly recommend the Shamballa 13D Workshop. If you want to raise your vibration; are looking for the next step up from Reiki; and if you want to remember how to live in a state of love without condition; this course is for you. Joe Weaver is an incredible facilitator.

Christina S. (Raleigh, NC)
A beautiful open door to further experience the light within yourself, divinity, and others. You experience the tools in the workshop, so you can continue to expand with these in confidence. Powerful!

Karen W. (Raleigh, NC)
Joe taught the course in an easy to understand fashion. We learned/covered a lot of matterial, had plenty of hands on time with fellow participants and also ample time for breaks and lunch. Joe answered our questions succinctly, making sure we all understood the material. His easy going manner made it comfortable to approach him.

Erik M. (Wake Forest, NC)
Joe’s connective energy links cognitive doorways and metaphysical windows, through the spiritual tollbooth, that only costs the human body to “pay” attention to the love that is so vital to my presence as a student of life. I embrace these moments, may they be with me in my “conscious” toolbox to build my cone of clarity.

Here are 11 ways that I have found useful in strengthening the immune system. These are an accumulation of 5 years of work and experience. Add any of these or a combination of several to your daily activities and it will change your life. Another idea would be to try one of these each month for the next 11 months. You will never know the benefits of something unless you try it!

1.) Regulate the PH level in your body with positive thought:
The PH scale goes from 0-14 and is a good gauge of how healthy a person is. Most doctors check a persons PH level when you go in for a yearly checkup, but it is seldom discussed. Our bodies are made up of 55 – 60% water and our PH is checked similarly to checking the PH level in a swimming pool. The most optimal PH level for a person is 7% which is considered a neutral PH. Anything under 7% is considered an acidic PH and anything over 7% is considered alkaline. A well trained athlete for instance may have a PH level of 7.4, which is very good. Most people however have a PH level below 7% which is in the acidic range. The lower your PH level the more prone you will be to acquiring diseases and viruses. There are many contributors to a persons PH level and food is one of them, but another main factor is what you think. It has been scientifically proven that people who think positively have a significantly higher PH level than people who worry, and are stressed out all the time. Have you ever heard the saying “you are what you eat”? We can also now say “you are what you think”!

2.) Cleanse the body of toxins:
For centuries people have practiced cleansing or fasting. In the United States most people associate cleansing or fasting with weight loss. Of course you will loose weight when cleansing but it is not the main purpose. Approximately 55-75% of a persons available energy is spent digesting food. When you give your digestive system a break and consume only water or juice for several days, it allows the body to heal and repair itself with the excess energy that it now has available. Cleansing is like sending the digestive system on vacation. One of the other main benefits of cleansing is clearing toxins from the body. The body does not have the capability to process chemically enhanced food and over time these chemicals build up in the body. I could go on and on about the benefits of cleansing. Think of it as spring cleaning for the body. My wife and I do what’s called “The Master Cleanse”. It’s a combination of water, maple syrup, cayenne pepper, and lemon juice. To learn more about the Master Cleanse I suggest reading “The Complete Master Cleanse” by Tom Woloshyn.

3.) Remove colored and hydrogenated foods from your diet:
Ever since the invention of frozen dinners in 1962 companies have been looking for ways to extend the shelf life of food. There are many different types of chemicals that are used in the food industry today. It is common practice for companies to add colorings and to hydrogenate food to make it appear more appetizing and last longer. The dyes are nothing but synthetic chemicals and are described on the food packaging as red#5 or yellow#3. Hydrogenation is a process food is put through to extend it’s shelf life. It may also be described as partially hydrogenated. Many companies are now starting to offer plant based colorings and are doing away with hydrogenation. However the majority of the market is still using these chemicals additives.

Chemicals like these weaken the immune system. The body has no way of breaking these chemicals down, so the the body turns them into what’s called free radicals. Free radicals are what cause cancer in some people. There are several countries that have banned the use of chemicals like these in food. For some reason the US has not. Take it upon yourself to control what is good for you and your family.

4.) Try Kombucha tea:
Kombucha tea is a aerobically fermented beverage made from sugar, tea and the Kombucha mushroom which is not a traditional mushroom, but just looks like one. The Kombutcha mushroom is referred to as a “scoby”, which stands for “symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast”. Kombutcha aids the stomach to better digest food and assists the spleen to deliver nutrition. It also aids the liver to remove toxins in the body. Kombucha provides the digestive system with a good bacteria and assists the digestive organs to work more efficiently. Another benefit of Kombucha tea is it assists your body in balancing it’s PH level.

A friend turned me onto Kombutcha tea 7-8 months ago and I have been brewing it ever since. For a period of 3 months I drank a small amount everyday. Now I drink maybe a half a glass 2-3 times a week or when ever I feel like it. I choose to brew my Kombucha at home. It is a lot cheaper that way. You can purchase bottles of Kombucha in many grocery stores. It usually costs around $3.00 per bottle or serving. For more information on Kombutcha and how to brew it I recommend the happyherbalist.com.

5.) Practice yoga or Tia chi on a weekly basis:
In March of this year I wrote “10 reasons how yoga balances your mind body spirit”. I have been practicing yoga for 3 years and it has changed my life. Yoga and Tia Chi are both forms of moving meditation and one may resignate with you more than the other. These forms of physical movement in combination with the breath balance you emotionally and physically. If you feel like your on an energetic roller coaster all the time and are not attracted to traditional mediation, you may want to give one of these a try. Many of the poses in yoga such as the “plow” pose, assist in speeding up the body’s metabolism. A strong balanced metabolism works jointly with a healthy immune system.

6.) Add AFA blue-green algae into your diet:
Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), (means invisible flower of the water) is a fresh water nutritional plant referred to as cyanophyta. Cyanophyta are living water plants that grow in nearly all droplets of sunlit water and in every gram of soil, on the bark of trees and the surfaces of rocks. It is estimated that there are as many as 50,000 species, including various seaweeds and plankton.

AFA Blue green algae is one of the most nutritious foods that you can eat. It has been touted as a super food. It is organic, easily digested and full of antioxidants. It is extremely rich in minerals and has a higher concentration of beta-carotene than broccoli. A rich source of calcium, iron, vitamin B12, enzymes and antioxidants make the blue green algae an ideal food for both adults and children. There has been a lot of scientific research to back up these facts. To learn more about AFA blue-green algae or to order a bottle visit e3live.com.

7.) Exercise, walk or experience nature in some way:
There are many ways to exercise, and the best form of exercise is one that you enjoy. If you do not enjoy exercising, most likely you will not do it for long. So find some form of exercise that you find fun. Even two to three hours of exercise a week is better than none. If for some reason you are not able to exercise then walk somewhere or even better, walk through a park or around a lake. Try to spend more time in nature. If you are not able to walk, then find your way to a wooded area or near a tree and simply breath. The breath is our life blood. Taking time to connect with nature and the breath will do wonders for your mind, body and spirit.

8.) Remove energetic blockages in your body:
Even though you may not understand what an “energetic blockage” is, most of you acknowledge that thoughts effect the physical body. Thoughts are energy and with each thought is attached a specific karma. Everyone wants to talk about and discuss the crazy events in their life. What most people don’t realize is how a casual conversation and listening to the drama of someone else’s life will effect you energetically. The same as a toxic substance, energetic karma will build up over time. Like cleansing the body of toxins, it is important to clear out all the unbalanced energy that resides within you.

Many of the poses in yoga assists the body in releasing energetic blockages. There has been more than one time I had tears running down my face in a yoga class for no apparent reason. We may or may not be aware of the reason for an energetic release. A blockage may release simply from you acknowledging something you have been ignoring for a period of time. Many of us push away what we do not want to face. When you deal with something you have been fearful of or putting off for some reason, this is an energetic release as well. The longer you allow these energetic blockages to reside within you, the more they will manifest issues within the physical body. Energetic blockages may show up as headaches, back pain, mental disorders, or chronic fatigue. There are more reasons to clear energetic blockages than I can list here. Until you experience this for yourself you will never know what it feels like to be free of this type of energy. Do not let fear stand in the way of your happiness, so try it! Visit a Shamballa, Reiki or healing practitioner in your area today. I have had countless clearings and healing sessions performed on me over the last few years. You can literally feel the energy lift from your body.

9.) Limit your intake of beef and pork:
For a period of time I was a vegetarian and through that experience I learned a lot about how the body responds to different foods. Every kind of food has a specific energy. As food is broken down in your digestive system, you take on the energy of that food. As I mentioned, the digestive system uses the majority of the available energy in the body. Beef and pork take 2 to 3 times longer for your digestive system to process, compared to fruits and vegetables. Like an engine in a car if you run the engine wide open for a period of time, things will begin to break and wear out. The same principals apply to our body. You have to feed your body good fuel and give it a break every once in awhile if you want it to run efficiently.

The other thing to consider is how food is raised or grown.  The less stress an animal or plant goes through the better it will taste and nutritionally be for you. Organically grown food is great but if it has to be transported across the country most likely it did not ripen on the plant or in the ground. It most likely ripened in the transport truck on the way to you. Therefore the freshest most nutritious food you can find will be locally grown. For animals, it comes down to what the animal eats and how much freedom it has to walk around. Beef and pork producers have turned their industry into an assembly line. Keeping the animals in cages and pumping them full of drugs to make them grow faster. The animals never get the freedom to walk through a field, which in turn creates a lot of tension and stress for the animal. This stress and tension builds up in the muscles of the animal and when you eat it you take on the energy of the animal’s experience. If you’re going to eat beef or pork, try purchasing it from a local farm instead of a grocery store. Chances are the animal would of had a happier life and in turn will make yours happier also!

10.) Limit your exposure to toxic chemicals:
We are exposed to toxic chemicals throughout our daily life, such as the cleaning products in our home, laundry detergent, body cremes, hair products, deodorants, building glues and sealants. The body absorbs these chemicals through the skin,  lungs and digestive system. What the body cannot release or expel it stores in tissue throughout the body. Over a persons lifetime these chemicals build up and cause issues throughout the body. This is one of the main reasons to do a body cleanse or fast. My wife and I have tested and tried all kinds of different cleaning and personal products over the last few years. You can get the job done with non-toxic cleaners which have proven to be just as good as traditional cleaners. The cost of the non-toxic cleaners are now comparable to the chemical brands also. The same goes for all the other products such as shampoos, body lotions, tooth paste, hair gels, dish washing liquids and so on.  Take responsibility for the environment for which you live.

11.) Laugh and enjoy life:
When was the last time you spent a whole day or even a few hours consumed in laughter? Laughter has tremendous healing power and is truly a form of medicine. Laughter can heal the physical body of disease. Laughter can heal the emotional body of loss and depression, and laughter can bring you out of fear. During laughter your bodies energetic system raises in frequency and chemical changes happen. Have you ever said “I really needed a good laugh”? Subconsciously you know the power of laughter, but  seldom use it. Practicing laughter on a weekly basis will do wonders for your emotions and physical body. It should be a requirement for you and your family. Put it on your calendar if you have to, “it’s laugh time”.

In closing:
Many of you who read this may be saying to yourself, “I can’t do that. I don’t have the time to do that. I don’t have the money to do that or that sounds scary.” Realize that this is the voice of the ego in your head. You do have the time, money and will power to do these things. You have to just stand up for yourself and take control. Your mind, body and spirit work together like a well-tuned machine. If one of them is out of balance, it throws all three of them off. There are no excuses. We are in control of our existence and reality. If you want to expand your awareness and have a more joyful time here on earth, then you have to take control of your life. Do not take for granted the power within you!

Most people live in a state of fear and have no idea they are doing so.

Ask yourself, do you have fear about what other people think of you? Are you worried about your reputation? Why? How do you see yourself? Do you love yourself unconditionally? Is there anything that you would change about yourself? Why? What is the reason you want to make money, loose weight, build muscle, color your hair, wear nice cloths, live in a nice house? Are you doing it for yourself and family or someone else? You may not want to admit it, but most people do these things because they are worried about what someone else thinks of them. Sounds silly, but it is true. It all leads back to fear. If you live your life in love, gratitude and respect for others, there is no need for fear.

Today the most talked about  fear that is being marketed by the media is the economy. It is a normal conversation subject when you talk with your friends. If you feed into fear, you are not being truthful with yourself. Try not to talk about or feed into fear. Fear is what is driving the economy down, nothing else.

The media plays a major role in spreading fear. They are now spreading the latest health “terror” regarding the Swine Flu. There is always more than one side to every story, and you are only hearing from one side, the side of fear. You hear about how the local governments are stocking up on vaccinations that may help you and how many people are perishing. You never hear about what you can do to boost your immune system, so that you don’t get sick in the first place. Fear creates tension and energy blockages in your body. It has been proven that stress and tension lower the PH level in the body. The lower your PH level, the weaker your immune system is and the more accessible you are to disease and viruses. Sure eating healthy food and exercising helps, but if you live your life in a continuous state of fear, tension and stress, it doesn’t really matter what you eat. The second most important factor to a strong immune system is your digestive system. Information like this is seldom advertised to the public. If the  governments would spend more time, money and resources on educating the public on natural preventive health care, the world would be a different place. Most health care facilities only treat people who are sick and then give them prescriptions to cover up the diseases or mental issues. Many are  given vaccinations or drugs that are not needed. This is a system based in fear. We have to start focusing on natural preventative health and not relying on vaccinations and the drug companies to make us feel better.

I grew up in a Catholic family and went to a Catholic school. I have experienced and talked to people of many different faiths and religions. There is nothing wrong with practicing a religion and no one religion is better than another. They are all based on what you believe. The thing that most people do not realize is how much fear that they have simply from a “belief”. A belief is a contract. It limits you to what you see as the truth and therefore limits your views. Many people of religion rely on their “faith” and when something comes between this faith or belief, they have tremendous fear of the other view. Many people also attend or practice a religion for security reasons. It is their connection to the “unknown” and when another view is presented to them, they become insecure (which is fear). Are you feeling fear from reading this information? Why? Do you think that God, Jesus or any of the other prophets want you to have fear? Having fear will only limit your awareness. Practicing a religion can be an beautiful and rewarding experience. Fear comes in when you give your power away. God wants you to stand up and take “control of your life” without fear, not look to him for all of the answers. You are in control of your life–no one else, and until you realize this you will live in fear. With most religions there are rules and beliefs of what is described and taught as the truth. This is the difference between spirituality and religion. Spirituality has no rules or beliefs. The door is open for you to discover your own path. There are no rules that say if you are a spiritual person you have to be serious or act a certain way. We are here on this earth to enjoy life and to have fun! Love to live and live in love!

There are only two different types of energy, light and dark energy. Demons and evil spirits fall under what I call  “dark energy”. You are fearful of dark energy because it has been ingrained into your cellular structure. The truth is that there is nothing to be be fearful of when it comes to dark energy. Always remember that light energy can enter dark energy, but dark energy can never enter the light! If you allow yourself to have fear you are working with a form of dark energy. The less fear you have, the more light your consciousness will have. In turn allowing you to live in love. Do you think God wants you to live your life in love or in a state of fear? When you live your life in love, there is no need for fear or protection! Fear cannot penetrate love because love is light energy. The two cannot reside in the same space unless you allow fear to exist. There is also no place called Hell. Hell is where you allow yourself to be until you awaken out of fear!

There are many more different types of fear that I have not mentioned: fear of lack, fear of plenty, fear of knowing or not knowing, fear of dying, fear of punishment,  fear of the unknown, fear of change, and the list goes on. The ego is responsible for fear and judgment and it is a built- in defense mechanism that we all have. A way to become aware of the ego is to start tracking your thoughts. The next time your making a decision or statement ask yourself if it is based in fear. The more times you choose not to go with fear, the more you will stand in your own power and therefore gain control over fear and the ego.

Take a moment and think about what it would feel like to have no fear. It is a world that allows you to see the beauty in everything and a reason for everything. I am here to assist you in anyway that I can. This is the reason why I teach Shamballa workshops. Shamballa is a tool that assists you in releasing fear and energy blockages mentally, physically and spiritually. It is time for you to wake up out of fear!

From this day may you walk in love with no fear and allow yourself to be free!

I have journeyed across mountains of strife and hacked through the forest of despair. I have read libraries of books on the meaning of life. All in the search of the truth. A truth that will set me free – to be the person I was born to be! I have taken flower essences to rid me of negative ‘stuff’, and worn crystals to make me ‘good enough’! I have meditated until sunset and fasted until dawn hoping an enlightened me would be reborn! But I have missed the point completely! I am wonderful just as I am. With all my baggage and hopes and dreams I’m completely human and fully divine! I need to stop ‘doing’ and just be the wonderful creation I truly am. In gentleness and love I will grow in my own way and in my own time and in this moment, I am perfect just as I am and heaven is finally mine!

History:

The traditional Reiki system was created by Dr. Usui, a Japanese Buddhist monk. He developed the Reiki system from ancient symbols that he found in Sanskrit texts and combined them with some Buddhist symbols. Three to four of Dr. Usui’s original symbols are from Saint Germain’s original 22-symbol Atlantean system. Reiki was what people were ready for in the beginning of the 20th century and it remains a wonderful healing energy. Humanity is now ready for so much more! It is good to grow and be ready to expand with the energies and with the times. Shamballa is what Reiki has grown into and beyond. The Shamballa energies grow and expand along with the Earth-their vibrations rise along with hers. The non-Atlantean symbols of Reiki do not grow, but remain in their old vibration, which back then was highly advanced, but in current times has been surpassed. We are ready to move on, with gratitude. This is not to say that Reiki energies no longer work, or to cast any aspersions on the Reiki system, which is very beautiful. Reiki is not Shamballa, and Shamballa is not Reiki.

Shamballa Multi-dimensional healing was created in 1996 by John Armitage/Hari Das Baba. He channeled this information from Saint Germain and the rest of the Shamballa masters. Saint Germain called down the original system from Source during Atlantean times. He and a few friends used the energies of the original 22-symbol system to raise the frequency of beings who were being enslaved. This uplifting change in frequency empowered them to free themselves from slavery. This was the original “healing”, raising vibrations to assist beings in this time so that they have the capability to realize their own personal power and take control of their own freedom. This has not changed, just expanded. The current Shamballa MDH system now covers at least 352 levels of creation back to the divine Source. The first Shamballa MDH system created in 1996 and was called 1-4, which activated students to the four dimensional energies of Shamballa. This system was used for many years then in 2002 13D Shamballa was created previously known as 12+ 1. The 13D activations that we use today connect you to the 12 dimensions of Shamballa energies, plus the 13th activation which connects you with new energies as they become available to humanity.

The difference in the Activations:

Reiki to me offers several great technical aspects of healing. In a Reiki class students learn about the chakras, hand placements, self healing, distant healing, and other clearance and healing techniques. Traditionally there are four levels, Reiki I, Reiki II, Reiki Master and Reiki Master Teacher. Each of the activations/attunements are specific symbols drawn on the forehead area of the student by the teacher.  Since each symbol has a specific energy tied to it, you are limited to that specific energy. Everyone gets what they came for but no more. So what if you are open to receiving more? This is where the use of symbols is restricting.

In a Shamballa MDH workshop, you receive the activations that you are currently open to receive. Everyone does not receive the same energy level at the same time, but receives as much as each one is able to handle at any given time. So in a class of twenty different people, there may be twenty different activations depending on their level of awareness, development, and needs (according to their Divine will at this time). The more clear one is, the more light can come in. This is the reason for all the clearance meditations done in a 13D workshop and is also the reason why the workshop lasts for 4 days. So by the end of the workshop, you have cleared things that may have been hanging around through lifetimes. In combination with all this clearing, you are activated to the energies of Shamballa. The combination of all these clearings and activations gives you a tremendous amount of “clarity” and power to live your life without fear or judgment. Often the clearings continue after the activations, sometimes for weeks or even months. Some people receive the activations in steps or stages, according to the will of their own I Am Presence. This again is dependent on the clearing work they have done before and during the Shamballa MDH workshop. You get what you are ready for and that makes you ready for more and more! Once you are activated to the Shamballa MDH energies, all you have to say or think is “Shamballa on!”. Doing this brings in the full spectrum of 352 “symbols” and more. You can then use this energy for healing yourself or others.

In conclusion:

Shamballa Multi-Dimensional Healing is not a technique, but a way of facilitating wholeness and freedom. It is about self empowerment through pure unconditional love. We are each in control of our own reality. It is time for you to wake up and dream.

Throughout our life we can take many different paths. We all have teachers and helpers along the way, if we choose to listen. Over the last few years I have read a lot of books on the mind, body and spirit. I have attended reiki classes and many other workshops. But I always felt that there was something missing. When I found Shamballa it helped me find my divine self.

Shamballa will test your thought process. It will help you stand in your own power and release fear and judgment from your life. Therefore showing you the way to live in love and freedom.
