It's raining and snowing here, so it seems like a good time to have a spring forum. Let's get started! — Machaelle
Susan's Question: On the first day for a PIC solution [Unit], I take it once. On a PIC retest, on the first day I take the solution one time. Correct? & Thanks to all for being there.
Christine's Question: Thank you for everything you are doing Machaelle. Working with a MAP team has been absolutely amazing in ways I would not have imagined. I often feel they know me better than I know myself. It has been nearly two years and so much has changed in my life and relationships. Thank you for making the MAP book available and the supports like ETS which hardly leaves my side.
Cathie's Question: Hi Machaelle I enjoyed your online presentation at the Home Grown Food Summit and the slides were just wonderful. My question is: Does Nature need humans? cathie
Rob's Question: Hi Machaelle, Is there a process we can do (or one you can come up with :)) that can help protect us and our homes from harmful electromagnetic frequencies? Thanks, Rob
Barb's Question: Last year I had a major infestation of it at least four different grasshoppers. I live at the beach between the highways. Never saw such amount of insects ever before. I tried everything holistically to get rid of them and I'm so afraid they're going to destroy my garden again this year what can I do.
Diana's Question: I would like to refer to an article your Garden Workbook(Volume I) called “Honoring Melvin” which seemed to suggest a way of dealing with unwelcome natural visitors like rats. I applied a similar approach to moths in my home, making a deal with the Deva of Moths that I would not whack or poison any moths and they could eat any food they could find, but in return they would not eat the clothes. This arrangement has worked well. However, I cannot think of a good way to coexist with mosquitoes. It seems that we have a total conflict of interest. They want my blood, but I can’t stand the bites. I don’t see how I can “talk” to nature on this issue. I know you have a Bites & Stings solution. If I took it, would the bites be less painful or last a shorter time? Here, bites from mosquitoes in May-June are very painful and last more than 3 days (in contrast, fall mosquito bites last only an hour; obviously a different species).
MK's Question: Hello Machaelle, I have been working with both SLG and more recently PIC to bring balance and resolution to litigation that arose following my father's death. I believe it has been helpful in ways beyond what I could do. Would it be helpful to have a new PIC focus for specific legal hearings in addition to my ongoing balancing work for the larger legal case? ( I realize I can bring this question to PIC, I would appreciate any insights from you) with great appreciation for your work and co-creative science!
Yvonne's Question: Hi Machaelle, thank you for your great products. Can you recommend something for a home vermiculture-compost project? I know that Nature is not sentimental, but I just love these worms. Which products or processes would you recommend? I can see that this involves microbes, soil, and the worms themselves. Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Sara's Question: I'm getting even more out of Essence of Perelandra after re-reading the brochure and more carefully following the directions! (This is a great way to have a renaissance in any Perelandra product, I think!) I understand that for taking EoP for human health, it's key to always first take it for general health and wellbeing, then for the specific issue. However, at work I often have so many projects going on at once, I've taken starting with job title down to specifics, but then when a new project comes up to work on, I just mention where it fits in the hierarchy as I send EoP rather than starting sending again from the top category. I feel like otherwise I'm going to need to buy additional sets of spoons so I can always have a bunch clean and handy. Thanks! (P.S. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR GIVING us all hope to move into a future of win-win human/nature partnerships and a sustainable world.)
Mike's Question: What tools do you have at Perelandra for dealing with heavy metals toxicity in the human body?
Theresa's Question: I have been using your Perelandra processes and essences since 1995 and have relied on it immensely. You once had an article about trauma and the need to fuse body and soul using your flower essences. That was the first time I had heard of that process and use it a lot. I have not seen that process discussed anymore. Can you tell me the status? Thanks! Theresa
Cinda's Question: Hi Machaelle, I have received many benefits of your uniquely powerful work over the years, including grad school to get a masters' in mental health counseling. Now that I'm nearing the end, doing an internship with clients in a community mental health agency, I am wondering about how my SLG for grad school needs to shift or integrate something new and when to begin work with a professional MAP team for work with clients. Thanks.
Carol's Question: Fantastic New Life of Spring slide show today. What is the sound track name. Also, will you be sharing what research learning has been received from scattering the mixture of fall plant seeds. Thank you for your work.
Not yet, we're still in observation mode. I can tell you that the fall/winter garden made it through the winter very nicely.
Peggy's Question: Hi Machaelle, What suggestions do you have for working with what are often called "invasive species" on the land? We have both autumn olive bushes (that sometime are small trees) and multiflora roses that have taken over areas of the land and that seem to propagate overnight. Wherever one is pruned out it seems that 10 pop up in its place. Would appreciate having a way to work with them other than the "spray them with chemicals" that the extension service offers! Thanks
Toni's Question: I take the Seasonal, Immune, Lymphatic and Muscular Solutions; how much time should I space them each?
Robin's Question: Also, one more quick share... I discovered another way to utilize ETS for Humans -- I put the solution in a spray bottle, and spray it topically -- applying it on areas in need, be it stiffness, pain, cuts, sprains and general discomfort. It works great topically as well for unease/anxiety sprayed on the solar plexus and bottoms of the feet. Bottoms of feet seems to be the cure all, IMO; great for sleep issues, nightmares, stress, etc., etc. My Grand kids absolutely love it, and know to ask, and use for it often without contaminating the dropper.
Pamela's Question: Still deeply appreciative of your work since I found Behaving  in the early 90s. I write and would like to share Perelandra. How do you feel about that? Shall I send it to you first?
Susan's Question: Machaelle, I'm about to shift my gut garden to a 2.0 garden and am formulating my DDP. The existing garden, which I share with the owner of the property, is a long rectangle surrounded by a deer fence. My issue is this: the owner plants flowers every year, and is eye-rolling skeptical about co-creative gardening. I plan to ask him to step aside this year and let me ask Nature where his flowers should go. But the bigger issue for me is my DDP. I've formed it around the constraints of the existing location, asking Nature to create balance in the garden within the larger biosphere of woodland and open fields around it. I stated my intention out loud and got a wonderful rush up my back, not to mention a lovely serenade from a male cardinal. I'm very excited about this forward step, and I guess I'm looking for some hand-holding, so if there's something I'm missing, or might need to add to my DDP, I'd appreciate your feedback.
Barbara's Question: Can I do a DDP to look younger (I have to look for work). Or would it be a soil-less garden?
Saki's Question: I'm new to your work Machaelle and have to say its just awesome what you have done! I've just begun to work with the various processes you have set up and have started by doing some MAP sessions, using gut gardening and learning to muscle test by testing all the flower essences each morning. So far I don't trust myself using PKTT. It always seems I am throwing the test with my thoughts. Will it get clearer by trial and error alone? I've got PKTT anxiety as I really want to get busy using the processes for gardening and SLGs but its hard to be patient!
Casey's Question: Hey Machaelle! I'm a little confused on taking the Joint Solution when I'm also using the Immune and Lymphatic. Need I wait [15 minutes] before and after taking the Joint to consume food or liquids? Can all three solutions be taken a few seconds apart or must the Joint be taken separately? I'm currently taking these morning and evening. Thank you!
Myra's Question: Thank you for your interview with HomeGrown. Grateful to have attended your live presentation many years ago now at Perelandra. Any idea on how to enlist Nature to assist with healing nature? The national effort to house Vets is underway. New community housing solutions, like Tiny House are cropping up. Intuitively, I sense that clearing the soils will assist the myriad levels of healing needed. Any ideas?
By the way, since a number of you in your questions are dancing around this issue, I want to say the following and give all of you something more to think about. We don't need to heal nature. It's not broken. Nature functions on inherent balance. Whatever the implied DDP is for an environment, nature automatically adjusts to that DDP and creates a "natural environment" that supports the goals of that DDP. So if your backyard resembles the neighborhood dump, this is what your implied DDP is for your backyard. And you can't be surprised if different flora and wildlife that you would normally find in your neighborhood dump show up in your backyard! This is nature functioning in balance. If you want to change your backyard from a dump to a patio seating area with flowers you are going to need to change how you are thinking and how you are seeing your backyard, and what you are defining. Nature automatically adjusts to that definition. So in actuality, work on healing yourself and not nature.
Kim's Question: Can I take all the MBP Solutions in one glass at the same time? Also, what is the meaning behind the number of drops for each one? What happens if by accident there is one more drop?!
TK's Question: How do I attract Purple Martins? Twenty years ago, we put up a martini house and they came right away. The following year, they returned; however, smoke from burning wood went right to their home and they left. We have tried placing new purple martin houses in other locations on the farm and still they have not come. Please help! We love them. Thanks.
I am assuming based on your long experience with this that you are installing new houses in the recommended locations for Martins. For example: out in the clear and x number of feet from a tree line. They need a long, unobstructed runway in order to land on a house properly. Since my work includes working with nature, I would recommend that you actually ask nature where a good location is for Purple Martins. If you're new to this concept, then I suggest you call the Question Hot Line. They'll tell you how to set it up.
Daniel's Question: Hello There, Which solution do you recommend for eye care? Much Love
Myra's Question: Another question. So, I get it, Polyester is nature, by definition. This would also mean that GMO are as well, correct?
Tania's Question: When you apply the Essence of Perelandra to a business project do you muscle test how many days it needs to be applied and after putting it in the spoon and stating your intention, what do you do with the solution in the spoon?
Carla's Question: Hi Machaelle, My wee doggie is pretty unwell with gastroenteritis. I had her at the vet and done the mainstream stuff. However, I am also using the animal coning and have done before. The problem is I have never been able to get her to take ets plus for animals in either brandy or vinegar! Same goes for essences. I've tried putting it on bits of tasty food but it's a big no no. My question is to ask if it's acceptable to put it on her fur or do a nature shift application? Also, she's a feisty wee thing and rarely sits still unless it's on my lap. Is it okay to do an animal healing coning with her on my lap or is it better to let her roam as we do it? Thanks a lot Machaelle.
Milena's Question: Following up on Robin's question... I have hesitated to make a spray for external application because of the directions to take 10 drops exactly... Which wouldn't work so well with a spray... Could you say something about this issue? External application as described seems like it might be really helpful at times, along with the regular internal drops. Thanks,!
Tracee's Question: With my husband having a few pic lists going too, each drop has become valuable. So, I have these questions. 1) when a drop hits my lip and runs down my chin, does that count as a drop? 2) those foamy bubbles on the end of the dropper that still has enough weight to drip down, does that count as a drop? 3) when you accidentally take one drop from the wrong bottle, can I spit it out or say 'cancel' then continue on with the correct bottle? Other than that, my 9 PIC Lists are going well. I appreciate their help and am grateful for you sharing your relationship with nature with us.
Kay's Question: I send thanks to all at Perelandra for the great work done by you guys. I work with MAP, PIC, ETS & EoP. When "stuff" happens it helps to have those available. I seem to move through issues quicker & easier. So thanks again. It has been spring here early. Today it is sunny, breezy & in the 60's. K
It's 4 p.m. We're going to take a quick break, then I'll
come back and answer the remaining questions. — Machaelle
Sherry's Question: Hi Machaelle, Is it possible to protect Ash trees from being affected by the emerald ash borer? If so, what process would be best? It is just hitting our community and pesticide injections and sprays are the only options being suggested. Thank you you for all you do and share!
Kimberly's Question: Which essence should I take for adrenal stress and increased cortisol levels? I gained 10 pounds in one month during weight training and it seemed to do something irreversible. I haven't been able to get back to my normal weight since. Thank you
Rosemary's Question: Hi Machaelle. I have been a big fan of yours for a while even though I have been too busy to use your products for quite a while. I have read and own almost all of your books. I'm very curious, do you still meet with David on a daily basis, and if so, is he (or you) involved with the cosmic disclosure many are talking about?
Theresa's Question: My 16 year old grey Maine Coon Cat, Sparkle, was recently diagnosed with nasal carcinoma (left side) She just started an injectable chemo two weeks ago (targeting every 3 weeks). I have opened MAP many times and talked with her team. I give her various flower essences as well as ETS for Animals. Anything else I should consider? She is such a trooper through this. Thanks.
Martin's Question: Dear Machaelle, I have some PIC technicality questions: 1) I often go to bed around one or two in the morning. This is when I do my second lot of the PICs for the day. When I start a new PIC at that time and then go to sleep, is the next morning a ‘new day’ and I administer two PIC dosages that day, or is it the same day and I do no more till the clock strikes midnight again? 2) On my ‘off day', the day before the PIC recheck, would it be wrong to take other Perelandra solutions to support the same issue? I.e. would that be confusing PIC about the state and ability of my body? 3) Is my understanding correct: all the solutions you created, I can now either take them as they are (e.g. Joint Health, Seasonal Balancing, Immune Balancing, Internal Parasites,...), or, if I am not happy with the results, I open PIC and address the issue that way (e.g. Joint Health, Seasonal Balancing, Immune Balancing, Internal Parasites,...). Is that correct? Thank you! PIC is awesome! And btw you are not kidding regarding the PIC Overwhelm Factor....!!! Why is that happening?
Martin's Question: Sorry Machaelle, one more question (this is a Question Forum, right?): I often fret about the wording for PIC. How critical is it? Tx!
Christina's Question: Hello Machaelle, thank you for your Work ('W' on purpose). We use Perelandra products and they have made such remarkable differences in our lives, as has MAP. I also read Behaving as if the God in All Life Mattered, Mt. Shasta Mission, and am now reading Dancing in the Shadows of the Moon. We use PIC and have not taken a deep dive yet into Soilless Gardens (use process B). You have developed an amazing transformational body of work and I have two related questions – of your existing publications, do you have a recommendation that contextualizes your work? To clarify – I am following the themes and learning though your narration and am seeking your perspective on enhancing understanding through continued exploration of your work. The follow-on question – have you considered a new publication that updates readers on your perspectives and continued insights in your ongoing collaboration with nature? Thank you.
Joleene's Question: I need to know how to use EoP to shift fleas my cats brought home so the fleas are out of my home and off my cats. Thanks. I'm new to EoP.
Maggie's Question: No question, just a big thanks for PIC! I've used the processes since 2009, but PIC is a whole different level. Recently, I experienced a major family crisis. I immediately took ETS [for Humans] and it helped, but the change was big enough that it felt like I was a boat being spun about in choppy seas. I went to PIC and set up a focus. Within minutes of taking the first dose, I could feel my emotional boat starting to right itself. By the evening of the first full day, the sensation of being ‘spun around’ had completely stopped and was replaced by a sensation of clarity, calm and balance. I literally felt a profound sense of balance. It was amazing. Although the seas ahead are still choppy, I feel that I have Nature’s help in navigating them to the shore. So thank you for all your work through the many years. Thank you for PIC. It all has changed my life in powerful ways.
