I have been struggling with depression,  loss of identity as a healer and loss of soul spiritually. I have felt so defeated, my life purpose for naught.  I have been so tired and sad.  I seemed to have lost my motivation and inner compass.  At 60 years old… I have been in periods of grief and change but have never felt so hopeless.  Despite that… I have been committed to  practice self care, spiritual disciplines and patience… I have been waiting with faith and curiosity for answers and healing.

I finally am seeing a crack in the insanity of this world take over by the president and Republican party.  I have been unable to see the other side.  Recognizing that those who support this must not necessarily be evil… but I have been unable to reconcile my despair, anger and fear for the country I grew up believing was supporting our well being and at least our personal freedoms.

As a student of Jungian psychology I was happy to sign up for a class on archetypes…. It  got cancelled! Archetypes are : a collectively-inherited unconscious idea, pattern of thought, image, etc., that is universally present, in individual psyches,  According to Carl Jung…. Archetypes like our shadow are aspects of the psyche that are common to all but sometimes when not acknowledged, appreciated and avoided …. take us over.  They remain hidden but are felt by our aversions and negative judgement.  if we have a strong “reaction “, feel justified, blame, act out of our value system without choice…. likely the shadow is activated.  I call it getting possessed!  Didn’t want to say that but couldn’t help it…. Addiction to people or situations or substances…. locked into blame… shame and fear.

So I asked myself…. What archetype has me possessed.  I googled Victim Archetype . One sentence opened my eyes…. and began an unraveling of the possession.  The root of the Victim archetype is a fear that you cannot survive or will not survive. Not just physical survival but the survival of your identity, your hopes and dreams or sense of self.  (read the whole article recommended)

Had I ever felt like a victim?  Perhaps with my father’s criticism.  I remember in my 20’s beginning to do therapy realized my defects of character revolved around shame, worthiness, fear.  In my learning to have compassion around my perfectionism, criticism and impatience… I understood my Dad better … so healing evolved and progressed to include him.  My shadow side was witnessed, not denied, became an anchor to delve deeper.  The involvement of the shadow gave me more freedom… less fear…. more acceptance… more inclusion … more moderation… authenticity.

But today possessed by the victim archetype…. a feeling of hopelessness, loss of soul and power were draining my life force.  I had to ask myself …. what’s the lesson in the victim take over?  Fueled to do something…. stay informed, write daily, pray daily, meditate, more time off work for exercise and sleep.  I stated a political support/ education group.  Read books and articles as much as my attention could focus on.  Nothing changed the feeling of loss, outrage, despair, grief, uncertainty, questions.  What’s the value to me of being the victim?

I did  understand from the past …. each shadow element has something to offer.  I was taking better care of myself, attending to my spirit, much more aware of what I valued and appreciative of all my blessings as the political choices that were being made by the government were threatening them:  environment, women’s rights, democracy, health care , education and all the rest.  In the darkest of moments I was also holding the love for everything dear to me.

So what Archetype was being projected at me to fall into this Victim Archetype.  Projection  is the unconscious communication of one person’s unconscious shadow on to another.  We all feel this when we are falling in love, for example.  The other projects their image of who they want you to be in usually a way that draws out in us the feeling of worthiness and esteem.  The problem is when the projection falls away there is reaction to the reality and and tendency to blame the other for their shortcomings.  They were there all the time but when possessed by the lover archetype we only see from that possessed state of mind.  It will always dismantle and this becomes the catalyst for the growth we undertake in learning how to really love…. warts and all.

The archetype being projected on to me from this administration from what I can tell is the Villain.  We love to hate our villains. They intrigue us because evil intrigues us. Our villains are social misfits. They are damaged goods, outcasts. Villains are rich. And today’s supervillains are superrich. In fact, many are billionaires who have nothing else to do with their resources than create destructive toys and weapons. Villains have no conscience and no limit to what they will wreak. They are capable of igniting a nuclear war; of destroying millions of people; of destroying a planet, even one which they inhabit. –Villains know that evil is a far more seductive power than good, because evil relies upon the tactile elements of the physical world, whereas good is often not tactile, sensual, or immediate in its consequences. In this, evil has a type of five-sensory advantage. A person can get addicted to evil; rarely does a human being get “addicted to good.”–Finally, we need our villains to fall on their swords in some way. We need to witness their plans failing. We need to see that all their money, minions, and preparation fail again and again to defeat the power of one hero, one good guy, one true, righteous, demigod who shows up just in time from out of nowhere. And, just as mysteriously, evaporates after his work is done.

This explained that I have also been seduced by this villain archetype.  Projecting the Republican Party and it’s leader as all bad but compelled to read , watch, Facebook…  I have compulsively spent endless hours viewing the evils perpetrated by (in my judgement) the villainous Republican take over.  Despite my knowing intellectually I have been adding fuel to the fire by such attention….. couldn’t help myself.  So how am I the villain?  How do I own up to the archetype?  …..   A woman friend of like mind said she always felt the White House was a special even sacred space for our country and felt is was being desecrated by who was now living there.  She had insight when she heard something say something similar to that… appalled that Black people were living in the white house the years prior. For some reason her story gave me for the first time a feeling of the victimization others have felt and role of Villain I have played in there life.  I can see their projection but how have I played into it?  White, upper middle class, educated, altruistic but not attention to the problems at home?  I’ll have to keep working with this one! Maybe my husband and daughter can tell me about that!

In conclusion…  I am not possessed at the moment by the victim.  I am the hero in my own story once more…. rising from the ashes.  I have greater insight now where my energy and purpose are most needed.  My actions now may be similar but with less contempt…. perhaps even compassion because being possessed by an archetype is not a conscious choice.  However, once it is conscious there is more choice and growing responsibility for one’s behavior.  ( even if the feelings linger) .  I do know that stepping out of the victim archetype releases me from the projection and helps to dismantle the projectors power.  That is the lesson and reason for sharing this.  Identify your archetype that is being activated if there is one, and dismantle that with awareness, consciousness, compassion and patience.  We are our own secret weapon! Owning our own shadow in no way makes us less… we carry wholeness.  Step up once more into the Hero’s journey. … “you were made for these times”!

I don’t’ know how and….. I’m dreaming in a country of compassion, Truth, honesty, and integrity. Love and inclusion are re established in a more powerful way than ever before.  Our suffering has brought forth a new world …. closer to our Soul’s nature.  We confront the shadow in our self and rise up with power to transform our reality for good.  The elements of the cosmos, including the full moon, are bringing us support and guidance.  I listen and respond and thank the divine Mother.  I only know this is so now and I am grateful.  Thank you.

I don’t know how and a world of peace and love rise up. I know today what is mine to do. I only know this is so now and i am grateful. Thank you

Our class finished off with a happy and successful group! Two members only made the first meeting but hoped they were supported with the blog information.  Biggest loser lost 28 pounds in the three weeks and was going to continue with a goal of 10 more!  Congratulations on all for commitment, participation and success in whole food eating for three weeks.  The most common comment this group was how easy it was to stay satisfied, enjoy the process and be inspired with new food ideas.

During the last class we discussed the process of reintroducing foods that we had been avoiding to see if there is any sensitivity and/or allergy reaction… both of which will provoke the return of maldigestion… leaky gut….. stress to the liver and detoxification… immune provocation which leads to inflammation!

Handout or the Cleanse booklet outlined introducing one new food per three days.  Sensitivity to dairy often provokes phlegm, mucous, post nasal drip, sinus congestion, loose stool or diarrhea.  Wheat sensitivity often provokes joint pain, skin breakouts,  bloating, constipation.  The foods you have sensitivities to usually bring back a symptom that had subsided or disappeared.  Insomnia, palpitations, headaches, poor focus, and G.I. symptoms and weight gain are some examples.  The food you crave is often a food sensitivity.

If you have a reaction, wait a couple more days to try a new food.  In general avoid that food 80 percent of the time and / or not more than every 4 days.  This allow the body to recover and prevent compounded and accumulative detrimental effects to the gut / immune health.  If you start regaining weight loss… you are doing something that should be avoided too frequently.

Sasha brought in fun whole food desserts!

Determined Detoxers!

Wow, what energy and enthusiasm for our third group!  Great results with weight loss up to 17 pounds for one member and everyone else seeing weight loss, improved mental/emotional, less body pain, better sleep and amazed at how easy to stay committed and enjoy the results.

This group of detoxers really are taking in the education and the holistic approach to getting well and changing eating / lifestyle habits to make a long term difference in their vitality and well being!  Tuesday nights discussion was on stress and a nice discussion on ways to deal with thoughts, perceptions, emotions, the unconscious, and even energy.  Attention to all these are needed to change our “reactions” to “response” that in turn creates a powerful  shift in bio chemistry for positive impact on our body.

The awareness of emotion as a form of heart information and through techniques to access the unconscious were examples of ways to provide an avenue of self awareness and compassion for a story we all hold about our self.  That story has been internalized and habituated to become the life and body we have.  The way out of challenges is to start accessing that story with compassion and so the healing begins.

We also emphasized the importance of intentionally creating a new story! A story of how we want to feel and what we want in our life.  This is a way to empower the heart and unconscious to be fully expressed and have new template to create from!  Pray with the belief it will be answered … requires a stepping out in faith but gets easier as we see that life responds to our intention when we put in place the practice/ repetition/ supports to keep it in mind.

Stress relief is about intending a new attitude, a new response,  and new habits… to the life we are already living.  “My day flows with ease, efficiency, fun, effectiveness and prosperity” … helped me feel the same work was easier and better over the last few years.  I say and said this every morning on the way to work and I’ve changed.  I am not tired in the evening, structured my day a little differently, better caught up with paperwork and making more income!  Say affirmations/ intentions/ One Command/ EFT like a prayer and belief of gratitude for prayers answered!  Works for me and others in the group 🙂

We discussed epigenetics from the work of Bruce Lipton and how gene expression is really based on the influence of epigenes.  Our epigenes are  predisposed to influence the expression of genes in a direction of health or disease from the nutrition of our parents.  The great medicine for optimizing epigene influence over genes for health….. are vegetables with all those fabulous methyl groups!  We can’t change our genes but how they are expressed for health is dramatically influenced by our personal diet and lifestyle!  Amazing nature cures and was designed especially for our well being 🙂

You have sole ownership of your vision. And the Universe will give you what you want within your vision. What happens with most people is that they muddy their vision with “reality”. Their vision becomes full of not only what they want but what everybody else thinks about what they want, too. Your work is to clarify and purify your vision so that the vibration that you are offering can then be answered.

Disturbing article I referred to about arsenic in our chicken!

Recipie I made up for SP complete muffins:\

1  cup protein power  or about 6 heaping scoops, 2 ripe bananas, 1/2 cup melted butter, 1 scant teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 1 cup of dried organic fruit (Costco),  ( about) 1/2 cup almond milk added to consistency to scoop by tablespoon into greased muffin tins.

I mixed all together except the dried fruit with a mixer adding the milk to get a good consistency to scoop by tablespoon into greased muffin tins.  Mixed in the dried fruit at the end then needed to add just a splash more of the almond milk.  About the consistency of thick pancake batter.  Bake 350 degrees for about 15 to 18 minutes depending on how full the tin 🙂

One Command:   I don’t know how….. my body is light and healthy. I enjoy all these healthy foods. My sleep, energy, mind and heart are vital and renewed! This is cleanse is easy….. I only know this is so now and I am grateful.  Thank You

Well, hope you are over or almost over the hump!  Getting into the groove with healthy foods and lots of vegetables and fruits 🙂  I am sending a link to an article that likens leaky gut to another condition affecting the brain and mood/mental functioning!  Very interesting and a must read for yourself and loved ones!  Remember information is a empowering thing to support the choices we make!

Email with questions and keep your intention alive with written or verbal words each day:

I’ll teach you the One Command next week but goes something like this:

Make up your own:  I don’t know how…. ( affirmation)…… I only know this is so now and I am grateful!    ( reminds the subconscious about what you want to happen)  Go Team!

Natural Health Clinic of Des Moines Detox Group is off to a good start with a group of about 10 going for the 21 day cleanse!  We picked out folders with handouts that were decorated with words and images.  The one you picked randomly was an experience in “synchronicity”…. Got the right message for you!  Courage, lighten up, have fun, transformation and alchemy!

We learned about digestion and the importance of a healthy gut lining.  We learned many foods cause maldigestion from the way they are processed and modified to lengthen shelf life and create chemical trigger for more and more.  The “leaky gut” theory was pictured and resulting inflammatory / immune challenge that can create was explained.

Our goal for week one is to eat mostly vegetables, fruits, healthy fats and for protein to use the Standard Process SP complete dairy free protein powder as smoothies.  We will be exploring how it feels to give up processed foods completely and take a week break from animal proteins, nuts and seeds.  This will allow our body to recover better digestive health, get a break from toxins created by maldigestion and begin the road to revealing how foods can return our health and vitality!

Great youtube to watch to reinforce learning from group one:

Enjoy the journey group!  Remember to add pictures and words to your folder and create some visual intention to remind your subconscious what you want!  Learn to manifest easily by paying attention to the goal 🙂  Write a little in your log book, encourage your friends in the group and hang in there the first few days!

email with questions any time!  Thanks for your participation, Dr. Lynn

Continuation of Healing with the Arts Class.  3rd week we created a personal medicine wheel.  An exercise to call in our muse and soul companion through the intention of creative process.  Whew… hard to let go and work under time constrain of 45 minutes but I think it requires the ego to step aside and let the soul muse run free!

East:  childhood story of coming in wild, damaged and hurt easily, hiding behind a mask …eventually taken into hades but redeemed and brought back reflected by the daffodils.

South:  Personal passion, love, heart of the feminine developing authenticity , self love and experiencing the mystery of “falling in love”.

West:  Inner transformation … could be the theme of my life!  Recover from the challenges to have compassion, acceptance, trust, faith and hope …” All is Well”.

North:  Wisdom and wings to fly!

The Center:  My inner conjunctio:  Anima / Animus truly the wholeness of Self realized within as  love is the foundation and inspiration of each day.

Thank you again Trudymarie for a great class 🙂  Dr. Lynn

Healing with the arts 12 week class began last night guided by Trudymarie Devilla.  It was a great turn out and looks to be 10-12 people using creative process as a modality to explore contact with the heart and soul as an avenue of healing!

              Based on the book by Mary Rockwood.

First week we did a meditation that brought us back to time where our creativity may have been squashed, not validated as important, minimized, criticized by self or others. Then we had about 40 minutes to create a project representing something about that experience.  Sharing and closing ritual ended the group.  Goal for week 2 to be more conscious of creativity in our life, inspired and available to the experience we have with more of that in our life. … and read chapter two!

My first project!  Birthday card for my 81y.o. Mother this month!

Ever since the passing of my Dad, Tom Mikel, I have had this attention to family and ancestors.  I looked at my vision board created last January and had a family section which almost seems now like a premonition.  I had a dream about pigs in a blanket shortly after Dad passed.  Someone reminded me that many cultures create an alter to their departed relatives and leave offerings of food… Dad would have liked that!

Stephen Linsteadt just finished the Scalar Heart Connection training at our clinic and it was amazing.  His work is based on principals of geometry and rhythm/vibration  that create all of nature from molecules to the human body, to the planets, to the solar system.  The unique organ of the human body that seems to connect and communicate that to and through us is the heart.

Over 25 years ago an astrologer told me I must learn to think with my heart and feel with my mind.  I have learned so much about my ability to choose my thoughts which create my feelings.  I keep learning to trust my intuition and heart with decisions and they nearly always works out!  I keep trying to be discerning but when it comes down to it…. my heart has a definite opinion and the more I go with it the more my life is miraculous and magic.  Even if I don’t really know how it works I do know that following my heart is never the easier way to go but usually puts me at an edge of uncomfortableness with security, self confidence, self doubt, self consciousness, and trust in God.

I’m getting out for a walk today.  Nature seems to confirm and reaffirm there is a pattern of wisdom, trust, beauty, inspiration and direction guiding and molding me.  I am so grateful for science that is revealing the truth and the mystery.  I am also certain my ancestors are calling for this awakening in me, that they are helping , inspiring and guiding as I listen, think, and respond with my Heart!

Week three of the cleanse/detox and all reporting good changes and happy with progress.  We are now eating vegetables, fruit, chicken, fish and just a little rice or legumes.  Recommended two thirds of the plate plant food and make a choice of protein or rice/legumes instead of both for easier digestion and better results.

Anti inflammatory impact noticeable for most people, joints feeling better, better sleep and energy.  One person went on a three mile hike, first time in years.  Another was on a family weekend and despite not perfect diet, found a way to eat inside of sandwiches only and found nice choices when eating at sit down restaurants.  A young girl in the class noticed her friend’s family didn’t eat vegetables or fruit the whole weekend!

Gary and Dr. Lynn get a organic produce deliver each week for about $25.  http://terraorganics.com/

The last group is on Wednesday 5:30 pm !  Feel free to bring a dish you have enjoyed to share with the group and we’ll really appreciate some samples of healthy foods together!

Hope all you determined detoxers are enjoying the Detoxification / Cleanse.  Amazing shifts already happening after one week.  After initial couple days of low energy/ craving, headaches People shared beginning to feel better energy for work, enjoyment of tastes of the plant foods, improved sleep and less body pain.  Enthusiastic group, motivated and optimistic.  We learned about exposure to toxins from foods, water, and products we put on our skin to off gassing of plastics.  Dr. Lynn shared a recent Mercola article describing new BPH free chemicals that are also endogenous estrogenic molecules …. the whole reason BPH was taken off the market!

Must watch youtube demonstrates the quality of nutrition in organic vs conventional grow produce.

We meet again  Wednesday at 5:30 pm and will further discuss hormones that we are being exposed to from chemicals in the environment and how our hormones contribute to our toxic load, how we metabolism and why imbalances occur.  Sarah will share some whole food meal food preparation ideas and Bobby will tell us a bit about his work with the unconscious using his style of hypnosis.  You might want to consider adding that for long term healthy eating support.

Keep moving this week; walk, stretch, and lymphatic exercises.  Drink an extra glass of water Dr. Mikel!  Deep breathe throughout the day for balancing the nervous system and intend prayer and health over your food before you eat!

Thanks all for your participation and sharing !  Dr. Mikel

The Detox group was a great group of about 20 diverse people.. from a family with two children several couples and many motivated individuals .  About a quarter of the attendees were there for the first time the other repeating the three week whole food eating plan.  There were lots of testimonials as to how it previously improved body comfort, sleep, energy and more.  Of course people were happy with weight loss during the cleanse but that wasn’t what made the biggest impression it was quality of health that improve so much that most were excited and motivated to do it again and get closer to eating whole foods as a lifestyle!

We learned deep abdominal breathing technique  to find more balance with the nervous system and be present in our life.  In through the nose to the count of 4 letting the abdomen expand… exhaling to the count of 8 through pursed lips.

The first lecture discussed common foods like wheat and dairy that cause maldigestion, contribute to leaky gut and inflammation as well as stress to the liver.  When the organs of detoxification become overwhelmed toxicity gets stored in fat cells.  The first goal of the detox plan is improve digestion, decrease the toxic load from food into the blood stream which frees up energy for the liver / kidneys/ lymphatics to start moving stored toxins out of the body 🙂  The process has begun and continues from here!

Plan week one is to eat vegetables to fruit 2:1, beneficial oils, and protein source is the SP complete dairy free protein powder.  Teas, water, spices all allowed as desired.  No limit on quantity or calories… start listening to your body and how it feels when you eat!

We practiced intention:  we set goals, collected a few images , and created a couple new positive self talks to keep our subconscious reminded of the outcome we desire!

Congratulations on to all who started the process …  I see success and opportunity for great outcomes with you all.  Sincerely, Dr. Lynn

The next Detox group begins Wednesday August 13th  5:30 pm to 7:30 pm. Our class meets for 4 Wednesday evenings at 5:30 pm and is a three week whole food eating plan to support detoxification and optimal health!  Many are returning detoxers but there always people trying it for the first time.  Amazing results always happen: improved digestion, better energy, improved mental clarity, happier and motivation to keep on a path of health and wellness.  We will introduce a few new supports this time like stress management techniques, lymphatic exercises, and encourage some  of you to participate with our other clinicians that provide hypnosis, massage, reiki and tai chi to get best results.  You’ll have an experience of wellness for three weeks and it will impact your knowledge of health forever!

I am trying to reach out a little more consistently for those that would like to be a part of the Natural Health Clinic of Des Moines community!

I have been home now a month after our trip in Ireland and Italy!!  I left feeling sad about the loss of several significant relationships in my life and the terminal diagnosis of my Dad’s illness.  There were several situations where I had to stretch my inner authority to speak my truth and step up to responsibilities beyond what I have had to do in the past.  ” You never know how strong you are until strong is the only choice you have”  by Bob Marley.

In Ireland I read a sweet book called Anam Cara A book of Celtic Wisdom by John O’Donohue.  Anam Cara is Gaelic for ” soul friend”.  The book created wonderful images through the stories, wisdom and the landscape of Ireland in relation to friendship, solitude, love and death.  It spoke to me and the time away helped my soul catch back up to me…. from the very busy and demanding world I perceived before I left.  A slower pace, good food, loving husband, sister and friends, a couple good books, beautiful landscapes and places of worship all helped renew me!

Excerpts from Anam Cara:

“There is such an intimate connection between the way we look at things and what we actually discover.  If you can learn to look at yourself and your life in a gentle, creative and adventurous way, you will be eternally surprised at what you find.  If your sight is poor, the work becomes a blur.  In a similar way, if your thoughts are impaired or if they are negative or diminished, then you will never discover anything rich or beautiful with your soul.  We have to imagine more courageously if we are to greet creation more fully.  ”

These words and more inspired me to open … and look for the door when I hit the  wall.  Thanks for your patience while we are away and looking forward to your next visit!

We have a wealth of groups, speakers and activities coming up at the clinic.  Look at the website calendar and newsletters for details!  Have a beautiful day.  Dr. Lynn

There will be a time, not so far from now, that you will look back on this phase of your life and instead of condemning it or beating up on it… Instead of blaming or guilting, you will feel appreciation for it, because you will understand that a renewed desire for life was born out of this time period that will bring you to physical heights that you could not have achieved without the contrast that gave birth to this desire.
