Down To Earth Healing with Mel Freeman

Our bodies communicate with us to let us know where the trauma and secrets are denied and buried.

Each organ has an emotional language to share with us if we can figure out a way to stop the denial and start to actively listen.

I would say that’s probably one of the most significant things I’ve learned about health and wellness and illness in my time on earth.

Listening is something we have to actively work at doing. With so many distractions, it can be a challenge to do so. I’ve found when I actively listen, the person I’m speaking with has an increased chance of adopting that also. And I love that!

What I know is that so many humans are completely disconnected from their own body. (And the earth we call home).

Some may feel they don’t know how to connect, some don’t want to, but most are simply unaware of the healing that opens up when active listening happens.

I was thinking about my mom and the “don’t want to”, and my mom actually said that to me. I don’t want to know. And I think that’s the most profound thing my mother ever said to me.

Healing means different things to different people. A woman who was in my care for cancer and did go into remission, but ultimately lost the physical battle here on earth considered herself “healed” with the work we did together surrounding family patterns. I’m writing about her story today for my book, and she is as present in my thoughts and memories as if she were sitting next to me having a spot of tea as she would say.

What if every single time we had a less than kind thought about ourselves, we decided to change that unkindness into kindness and love and compassion. Every single time. What a difference that could make in the world...just that one thing.

There is nothing that we go through with our overall physical health that doesn’t begin with mental/emotional health.

If I know or have learned one thing in my time on earth, it is this.

Two photos.

CBD is one component among MANY in the cannabis plant which works in a synergistic way to assist our endocannabinoid system that we all have in our bodies. Which in turn can and often does help all humans regardless of size/age to heal.

And then also there are many companies selling a CBD synthetic isolate and telling you it’s the “safe” way to use cannabis and can heal xyz.

Meanwhile in the trenches, medicinal cannabis is responsible for the second photo.

Whole plant medicine.

Giving Tuesday: When I posted yesterday about the anxiety tincture give away happening today, I was bombarded with messages.

I mean, I KNOW people have a ton of anxiety but I was still floored by the responses, realizing it’s such a huge need right now. Which led me to thinking about next weeks give away and how to offer more comprehensive help.

Several people were wanting something for their children, and yes it is safe for kids…the dosage will vary but it’s perfectly safe for kids.

One of the reasons I started getting into this medicine years ago was because of health issues my own child was having and so early on, I created products with them in mind.

I’ve worked with many kids over the years, so my heart went out to the messages concerning young people. It’s quite understandable how many children are struggling with severe anxiety right now.

So although I’ve already fulfilled the gifts for this week, if you have an anxious child in need, let me know via private message and I’ll offer some possible solutions that you could try out. Please don’t post a comment here about your child as this is a public post and your families safety is most important.

Tomorrow is my version of Giving Tuesday.

I’m giving away a couple of bottles of my Anxiety Tincture that I made this fall. I tested it out on some neighbors on my street and everyone loves it. Or they at least said they did! 🤪

Message me at my personal page and let me know your situation.

Another of the medicinal cannabis products I have my patients using is a cannabis infused castor oil to use in the practice of castor oil packs. Edgar Cayce was a huge proponent of castor oil packs and he was an incredible healer (google will bring up his work and this procedure and how it's used).

I work with many very ill patients that have cancer and other debilitating diseases, and castor oil packs were recommended in many of Edgar Cayce's treatments, so it's something I have advocated for many years in people I work with, and I've used them personally as well for various things (I find they work great for pain as well) When medicinal cannabis oil is infused into the castor oil, it brings this procedure to another level in my opinion.

Below is a great quote from Edgar Cayce and as you can tell he was very devoted to emotional healing as well. That is the crux of my work with medicinal cannabis. I know that medicinal cannabis brings a lot of pain relief and healing of the endacannabanoid system but in my opinion, if you aren't doing some deep emotional work alongside that, the illness will be back. It could be in the same form, or it could be in another form. Pain and dis-ease come into our lives to allow us the opportunity to make big shifts in our lives. If those changes don't involve looking at and digging into the root causes, then we really are turning our backs on that opportunity and our bodies will keep finding ways to get our attention. Hyper focus on physical symptoms, pain, and diet are ways to avoid looking deeper. My belief is that often medicinal cannabis gives us the respite from pain and illness and gives us a little breathing room into digging into these things. But lean in we must do to go deeper into our healing.

"Healing of the physical without the change in the mental and spiritual aspects brings little real help to the individual in the end. This is because the mind and the body imprint and imitate each other. What we think, we become. What we become, we think. It's an insidious process that can predispose us to illness or it can lead us to health.” ~ Edgar Cayce
