Digest Number 808

[Guest guest]

Hello, Kerry

 

Chrysocolla is one that I think of as a " friendship " stone-one that

expresses love,

enhances communication, provides balance, encourages understanding, supports

inner strength and reduces stress. I have friends who call it their

favorite stone. When I put it in my giveaway basket, someone is usually

drawn to it immediately and it's soon gone to a new home. The color green

indicated usefulness in issues relating to the heart and blue indicates

relatedness to communication issues. For me it enhances my sense of

connection with the earth, so it's very grounding, very good in this time of

intense and rapid transformation.

 

I posted a note the other day not realizing that attachments don't go

through so will type in now what I intended to share. I fond this on the

internet with no author indicated, so hope it's creator doesn't mind my

sharing. A friend of mine has since posted it on her fridge. I hope you

all enjoy it!

 

Gentle Reminders for the New Year!

Hope this finds Nicole and Peggy and all who read this doing well!

 

In Light, Skye >)(<

Hi, Skye - I have two lovely chrysocolla stones which I was drawn to, such

beautiful sea-like colours, and I have them in my crystal healing circle at

present.

 

Thanks for typing up the attachment - lovely!

Love and hugs,

Mo.

Hi all , published in the Scotsman today.

Festive greetings to all on the list

 

RoAcupuncture can ease arthritis pain by 40%

 

ACUPUNCTURE can reduce pain and improve mobility in arthritis patients by 40

per cent, scientists said yesterday.

 

They announced the finding after conducting one of the world's longest and

largest clinical trials to investigate the ancient treatment.

 

A total of 570 patients aged 50 and older with osteoarthritis of the knee

took part in the 26-week American study.

 

They were randomly assigned one of three treatments - genuine acupuncture,

" sham " acupuncture, or a self-help course that teaches patients to manage

their own condition. They also continued to receive their normal medical

care, including anti-inflammatory drugs and pain relievers

 

By the end of the trial the volunteers receiving acupuncture found pain was

reduced by about 40% and function improved by almost 40%.
