Words from the heart of Joy

Wow! Nancy has just asked me to contribute to Shell Essences newsletter. What to write: well, I thought, just think about all the wonderful things that have happened to me since I first encountered Leonie and Nancy.

My first thought was when one searches for the truth doors open to reveal the love and caring from these two people and the vast knowledge they have to help all people who ask.

I have done several courses with Leonie, opening my mind to the healing powers of Shell Essences which I use daily to keep me on track, help me to deal with hurts of other people and let them go, and most of all to clear my mind of trivial junk.

My memory was causing me some concern – names of folk, plants in the garden, then everyone telling me ‘it’s only old age’, when in reality I am only a young chick encased, maybe, in an ageing body. This sent me running over to Nancy to procure some ‘I Remember’. What a difference. After only one bottle the gray matter is working again and I am back to folk saying ‘I can’t believe how good your memory is’. It’s incredible how a gift to Leonie from her ‘minders above’  and her willingness to devote so much  of her life to listening and carrying out the knowledge they have given to her, can have such a gigantic effect on so many people. I know that I will be taking ‘I Remember’ for the rest of my life along with the other essences that help me all the time.

It is up to everyone to pass the messages of love, hope, understanding and happiness that can follow us if we believe in ourselves and understand each other’s journey.

Thank you Nancy and Leonie for all that you have given me in the past few years and for introducing me to the Shells.

No More Snakes!

I took home a bottle of ‘No More Anger’ with me from the Mind Body Spirit Festival. Whilst I didn’t feel angry about any particular incident in my life at this time, I did feel a wave of bubbling anger beneath the surface. So, a simple course – 6 drops, 3 times a day for 3 weeks.

During this time I had one particular incident regarding a gift of a pet snake for my partner for his forthcoming birthday.

The way the topic came up, he was given an application form for a licence to keep wildlife from his son and daughter-in-law who have snakes (pythons) as pets and babies to be sold. My partner has learnt to handle them when he visits their place, joking that they are the grandkids. But I am unable to touch, handle, or get close and have no desire to do so. This offer came as we were leaving a family dinner – no discussion, just papers handed over for filling out.

That night I woke about 4am and I was seething with a raw anger regarding the way this gift was presented, without talking about it, without considering both of our feelings – it’s not for everyone to want a pet snake in their home!

My angry thoughts wanted to ring and confront the situation – is 4.30 am an okay time to ring anyone I wondered? I wanted to have my say, vent my anger at not being considered, not being asked – I was mapping out conversations in my head, the words I would use in an email. And I wondered what my partner would say. Would he go along with it because they were family, or would he consider how I felt?

However in the morning all I said was “I don’t want to live in a house with snakes.” I didn’t call. I didn’t email. I didn’t rant and rave. I didn’t do anything. I let it be, and let my partner handle it. He didn’t do anything for a few days, and then casually said he wasn’t ready for any pets in our lives; we want to travel. We’ve heard nothing more.

‘No More Anger’ diffused the potential for me to ‘burn bridges’ in a rage of indignation; it took the heat out of the situation.

I finished the bottle feeling more peaceful and unperturbed by pockets of upset that had been stored within.
