A Word About Our Book From Mike Pinder of The Moody Blues

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Sat, 02 Mar 2013 23:57:00 +0000

From the Foreword by

Moody Blues co-founder, keyboardist and vocalist Mike Pinder...

"It was very interesting to read Charles and Barbara Whitfield's interpretations of our music and message.

They suggest clear and useful ideas and ways for those who are newly exploring our music and for the many who have been on this journey with us from the beginning.

I have always been interested in the broader qualities of music to inform, heal, raise consciousness and uplift. This was often on my mind when I wrote a song or painted the backdrop for others in the band with counter melodies and my Mellotron.

In contrast to most observers of our music, I saw how the authors here delve below the surface and give us an enjoyable interpretation of our words and music. They examine essentially their every aspect. Not only do they address our lyrics from a scholarly and poetic perspective, but they offer us some insightful and sometimes surprising interpretations of them beyond what many listeners and fans may consider.

Music has changed our world. It has the potential for reaching within, opening our minds and our hearts to the power of Universal Love. It transforms, strengthens, relaxes, teaches and enlightens us.

The Whitfields realize these truths and give us a strong base from which to experientially understand them. They integrate the many positive messages of our words and music by giving us a clear and constructive map of healing that is on the cutting edge of psychology, consciousness studies and spirituality.

Memories are also closely associated with music. I have always thought that we hang our memories on the shape of sound. With memorable melodies, counter melodies and instrumentation we were able to create soundscapes for many to hang the best memories of their lives.

Those of us who remember the 1960s and beyond will appreciate their attention to the detail of our works and the history of how it all came about.

They show us how the Moodies have expressed, preserved and continue to remind us of the message and wisdom of the 60s by keeping it so alive. And how there was a natural spirituality that still lives in all of us and that is manifested in our descriptions of Love."

A Reminder of Wonder: Helvetia's Dream

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Fri, 09 Nov 2012 00:15:00 +0000

Some of us have discovered that in the midst of all of the busy-ness and bad news in the world that creative and awakening minds find a way to give us a moment's pause --just enough to remind us of the deep and intrinsic beauty that exists all around us. During these moments, we can choose allow ourselves to be open to these beautiful reminders, and to let them fire our imagination and create a sense of wonder to restore some of the luster that is temporarily obscured.

The link below is one such reminder that we would like to share with you.

It is rare nighttime glimpse of the beauty of the high Alps, the starfields above and seductive night glow of high Switzerland. The creator is a young man who is from the high Alps, who shares with us his interpretation of Helvetia's Dream..

A Reader Asks: What To Do About Kundalini Rising?

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Sat, 08 Sep 2012 09:25:00 +0000

Dear Barbara,

I do have a question for you.
I spoke a few days ago with a woman who runs a store here in town, and she mentioned that her son had experienced some sort of uprising of kundalini energy when he was 17 years old. She said that they had no idea what to do about it.

What does one do about it? Does the KRN (Kundalini Research Network) have a position on this? If kundalini is considered to exist in all religions, does a non-religious person choose a meditation at random? Should the parents ignore the event, or try to ground the boy with changes in diet or exercise?

I assume that hospitalization with medication is not a preferred choice, but what is the proper choice?

Just checking,

JM

-----------------

Dear JM

That's a huge question and one that has plagued me for years.

I think I told you recently that I listed our 18 signs of arousal (that Bruce Greyson and I put together) to a group of 100 people who are working a 12 step program and more than half identified themselves with a possible kundalini rising.

And I have heard horror stories at conferences from people that did have something happen like this young man you mention, in their teen years and were hospitalized on a psych unit and subsequently put on psych drugs -- enough of which gave them what we call "a chemical lobotomy."

When people write me or come in for a session -- I advise them to read my book Spiritual Awakenings and then come back with their questions.

We, my husband who is an integrative psychiatrist (and has many books dealing with childhood trauma and healing from it as an adult )(usually people who come to us have PTSD from childhood trauma and some have some sort of energy arousal with the PTSD because there is a connection) we recommend yoga or acupuncture (in my earlier days when I would also do acupressure and breath work at the same time to help move this energy) and individual or group psychotherapy. We ask for a one year commitment to group therapy for many reasons but in this context -- when there is an arousal of the energy -- it is breaking through blocks and those blocks contain emotional material that came from past trauma and needs to be metabolized.

If they are calling us from elsewhere in the country -- and from all over the world (we had one woman come here from New Zealand and many from Singapore, the Caribbean Islands, all over Europe) but when they call and can't come, we recommend they stay away from physicians who will medicate them which stops the process and only postpones the work they need to do -- that is to let the energy tell them what they need -- so we recommend yoga, listening to their bodies needs for changing their diet, staying off of alcohol and other drugs -- and of course, reading Spiritual Awakenings and getting back to us with any more questions.

We also recommend a 12 step program for getting "grounded" and finding others who are focusing on personal growth because that's what this energy arousal is really all about -- our own growth and development -- our integrating our spiritual side with our physical, emotional and intellectual side so we can be balanced. And we reassure them that this has nothing to do with religion -- it's about our own natural abilities to be a spiritual being trying to have a human experience.

The Western Medical Model doesn't have a clue about what I just wrote above.

We also recommend the Sounds True book Kundalini Rising and Lee Sannella's books. Also if they are in an area that has an IANDS support group that can help.

In October we are having the first training for therapists to help their patients integrate their spiritually transforming experiences. I am one of the speakers and am looking forward to us putting a "dent" in this vacuum that needs to be filled.

The Consciousness that is ‘Talking to Us’ in a CMPE

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Mon, 20 Aug 2012 22:40:00 +0000

Background:

Barbara is friends with Robert Perry, a researcher who looks deeply into synchronicities (definition below) and what he believes to be the larger, more complex counterparts of synchronicities which he calls, CMPE or Conjunction of Meaningfully Parallel Events. Below is a recent article (click the link to view the complete article) that attempts to connect the power behind CMPEs with the power behind Near-death Experiences, as reported by Barbara, who is a well-known Near-death experiencer.

"After listening to my interview on Skeptiko, my friend Barbara Whitfield wrote me about it. I had referred to her in the interview as the woman who got almost a third of the CMPEs we recorded in the pilot study. Quite remarkably, out of 16 CMPEs recorded by 17 participants, 5 of those were Barbara’s.

One of the things that came up in the interview was my claim that CMPEs are best explained as coming in some sense from God. Barbara said that whatever is talking to us in CMPEs has the same quality as what spoke to her in her near-death experience—which she identifies as God."

[CLICK HERE TO READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE]

Definitions:

Merriam-Webster defines Synchronicity as: The coincidental occurrence of events and especially psychic events (as similar thoughts in widely separated persons or a mental image of an unexpected event before it happens) that seem related but are not explained by conventional mechanisms of causality —used especially in the psychology of C. G. Jung

Robert Perry defines CMPE as a Conjunction of Meaningfully Parallel Events. It is a very specific and extreme form of synchronicity. It consists of the following elements:

First, you need two strikingly similar events that come together in time (within hours of each other), seemingly by chance.

Second, their similarity needs to take the form of not just one parallel between them, but a long list of parallels, on average about 8 or 9. This extreme parallelism is part of what sets CMPEs apart from other synchronicities.

Third, these parallels, rather than being a list of unrelated items, need to come together to tell a coherent story.

Fourth, this story then points to some situation in your life and comments on it, by framing it in a certain way.

Dr. Whitfield Unveils Art after Keynote Address for CoDA

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Mon, 16 Jul 2012 04:30:00 +0000

After completing his Keynote address, telling his story as a member of CoDA, at the annual international convention of Co-Dependents Anonymous in Asheville, NC, Dr. Charles Whitfield unveils a rare glimpse into a personal artistic endeavor that is creatively tied to his work in recovery.

Here he presents a painting he made several years ago of Persephone (representing the conscious mind) walking along, and Pluto (God of the Underworld, representing the ego) attempting to drag her down into the Underworld.

Smiles abounded as did cell-phone cameras to capture the moment, the message, and the metaphor.

Barbara Presents Victim to Survivor then Thriver for ACA

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Thu, 21 Jun 2012 21:25:00 +0000

By popular demand, Barbara is making a powerful presentation on understanding and recovering from childhood sexual, physical and emotional abuse, abandonment and neglect. As adults, our "depression," and other problems with living can in many cases be traced back to psychological and physical traumas that occurred when we were children. Understanding the nature of these problems is an important key in learning to recover from them.

She will be presenting results from the very popular "ACE Study" (Adverse Childhood Experiences) that was jointly conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Kaiser Permanente, which her husband, Charles Whitfield MD, was a researcher.

The basis of her presentation comes from her book, "Victim to Survivor Then Thriver."

Wisdom to Know The Difference: Core Issues in Relationships, Recovery and Living

Practical Research into Consciousness

noreply@blogger.com (YakRider) — Wed, 23 May 2012 05:59:00 +0000

Kundalini Research Network

Charles & Barbara are on the board of the Kundalini Research Network (KRN), an international group of health care professionals, researchers, scholars and individuals interested in the transformative power of Consciousness, known in the Yogic tradition as Kundalini.

The following is a brief introduction to this remarkable power that we all possess, written by board members of KRN.

What is Kundalini?

Kundalini is a term from the yogic tradition for the power of the Divine. It is Kundalini who creates the universe and knows Its Self as Creator. Kundalini has been called the face of God. Just as we recognize someone by his or her face we recognize the Divine by Its power of Consciousness, Kundalini. It is Kundalini that clothes the formless in form, that gives the Absolute a face to adore, a presence to inspire, traditions to revere and a body of wisdom to serve and guide. She is the esoteric goal of all yogas, the awakened mind of the thatagatas and the transcendent vision of saints and sages. By knowing Her, all is known and life becomes suffused with ananda - sublime joy. The source of that joy is our very own Self, forever present, nearer than our breath, waiting in Stillness to be revealed. Drown the ordinary ego-mind in Stillness if you truly want to know the Knower.

--Lawrence Edwards, PhD

Kundalini: The Need for Humility

Our reward for working through ego inflation (a "head trip" rather than an authentic "heart experience") and spiritual bypass (When we try to bypass or ignore the "lower" to get to the "higher levels" of consciousness) is recognizing and using the power of humility: the solid foundation of an authentically spiritual, healthy and whole human being. We can begin to define humility as having openness and willingness to learning more about our relationship with our self, others, and God. Humility is not about groveling or being a doormat. Instead, it is a powerful attitude and state of mind that, when we are in the pain of conflict, opens us to more choices and peaceful resolutions. Humility assists our ordinary ego-centered unawareness into a more expansive, alive and conscious awareness where we can live in and as our natural Soul. Having humility levels the occasional bumps in our Kundalini process.

--Barbara Harris Whitfield, RT

http://krnweb.blogspot.com/2011/06/kundalini-101-energy-and-how-it-works.html

A Common Problem to Realizing Kundalini: Spiritual Bypass

Some experience a degree of ego inflation. Others become grandiose and may get stuck. A way out is to work on ourselves over time psychologically, emotionally and spiritually. To believe we can be instantly healed through a religious or spiritual experience only -- is to attempt what we call a spiritual bypass. We try to bypass or ignore the lower to get to the higher levels of consciousness. Eventually, however, our false self will likely pull us back until we work through our particular unfinished business.

Other names for spiritual bypass are high level denial and premature transcendence. It is seen in any number of situations, from being prematurely born again to having a spiritual awakening and focusing only on the Light, or focusing on psychic ability as a major part of our identity, to becoming a guru or teacher who exploits their students.

The consequences of taking a spiritual bypass are often active co-dependence or conflict, including : 1) denial of the richness of our inner life; 2) trying to control our self or others; 3) all-or-none thinking and behaving; 4) feelings of fear, shame and confusion; 5) high tolerance for inappropriate behavior; 6) frustration; 7) addiction, compulsion, relapse; and 8) unnecessary pain and suffering. (more about that can be found here)

If we live from our ego or false self, we may find it impossible to quiet down our inner life during meditation or any attempt at centering. We can only experientially quiet down and connect with God, each other and ourselves by developing our True Self-- living as our natural Soul. Ego inflation and spiritual bypass are more cognitive intellectual experiences, or head trips. Being our True Self and connecting spiritually with God is more of a deeply emotional heart experience.

Description of book from Amazon.com:

This is an exceptional book. In the most compelling and comprehensive account of this trial, the authors go below the surface to explore what really happened to Caylee. Wendy Murphy JD gives us a gripping analysis of the trial that captured a nation. Filled with facts that were never discussed at trial, this new book raises important questions about evidence the jurors never heard, and which has been hidden from the public.

With a century of combined experience in child advocacy law, psychiatry, psychology, and grief counseling, the authors analyze the story clearly and in striking depth. Charles Whitfield MD shows us how to recognize and prevent this kind of child abuse and neglect and details core issues between Casey and her family. Barbara Whitfield shows us how to grieve such a loss and what we can do right now to find meaning in Caylee’s death.

From the Foreword … Our single purpose is to help ensure that no child ever again suffers the horrific fate that took the life of one little girl in Florida.

From the Afterword … This tragic story is an opportunity for each of us to take what we have learned from the cruel death of one little girl, and use it to help prevent child abuse and neglect in all its forms.

Thanks for the life-changing book Not Crazy once again.

Yours sincerely,
