Laci's Question: Hi Machaelle, By any chance will there be another virtual tour day and forum in September...?!? Thank you...
68.
Faith's Question: Hope its not too late. My cat has been diagnosed with a large lump in his liver. How can I help him?
67.
Mary's Question: I've heard the CDC is advocating that everyone be forced to get vaccinated against this flu pandemic. Is this true?
66.
Eileen's Question: Does nature have any comment about our soils perhaps getting continuously depleted because our copiously produced Humanure cannot be returned to it at this point? Certainly, as long as our sewer systems mix human waste, industrial chemicals and all the pharmaceuticals so many Americans consume, it's a bad idea to be returning 'Biosolids' to our soils. Still, as a wannabe gardener, I worry about the impact on the earth of us constantly drilling, mining, overfishing, etc. for our soil amendments.

Lenise's Question: My cat just had a seizure five minutes ago. Immediately after the seizure I began giving him the ETS+ for Animals, and will continue to give the ETS+ every 5 minutes for a total of 20 minutes. After the 20 minutes, can I then give him his Immune, Lymphatic and Nervous MBPs or do I still wait until tonight to give him his MBPs? Again, Thank you for these forums.. they are so very helpful.

David's Question: Hi Machealle, Could you tell me where the Avian flu land clearing process is described? Thank you so much for everything!
63.
Laurie's Question: Just a comment for another Lori. :-) When I was having problems with fleas and not wanting to use toxic flea products on my dog, I called Beth and she said Cedarwood worked for her pets - and it has been amazing for my dog (and now some neighbor pets). I used to be like you and was the target for all insects to bite but after I changed my diet and ate less sugar (I eat Blood Type Diet foods now), I stopped getting eaten alive. Also, I tried the Cedarwood drops on my feet this summer when by the lake and had gotten a flea bite for first time in long time - and it seemed to work on me, too. However, I know you need to be careful with essential oils - check with MAP? Good luck!

Patti Campbell's Question: No question, just a BIG thank you...Machaelle, you have changed my life...and those around me!
61.
Mariko's Question: Are there any other co-creative research gardens in the US? And if so, where are they? I have worked with one plant for 12 years. It found me shortly after I read Behaving. We plan to co-create on a flower essence and a field essence (I have an intensive planting as well as trees). The menstrum suggested was honey and honey mead. Have you ever used honey? The reasoning when I asked for clarity was that the nectar in flowers is the same substance and would be very compatible.

Marilyn's Question: Hi Machaelle, (in reference to Otis question) Could you share any information with us about how you have developed and refined your listening skills?
59.
Philip's Question: Machaelle Thank you for doing these sessions. I have been struggling with the kinesiology testing for some time. I am now determined to go at a slow pace and to learn this skill. I find that I at times have an outcome I would prefer, then I question that I have in a sense thrown the test. I am thinking of creating a blind test by writing the questions on paper, then asking the yes no without knowing what on paper I am asking Any suggestions? Do you think that would work?

barbara's Question: I put my whole life into a Gut Garden as you suggested. I had always wanted to share wonder folk songs from the British Isles that I was raised with. My housemate is a pianist and vocal coach who joined me. Everything fell into place and I have three more recitals. I was asked by my agency to do a series of Cultural Diversity Seminars for the Nurses and Social workers so I got to organize and present on this great topic of world religions. Thank you so much my life is so exciting so much fun.

Debi's Question: If someone is gluten intolerant, should they be using the essences preserved in vinegar instead of the ones in brandy? My husband and I have been taking the FSBS+ Pandemic protocol essences 2 X a day for the past few months. My husband is gluten intolerant and told me that he felt congestion in his lungs with the essences in brandy. I recalled that brandy is a grain alcohol. I suggested he try the essences in vinegar and would like confirmation that the vinegar is ok for those gluten intolerant.
56.
Nancy Johanson's Question: We are thankful to Nature for great veggie gardens this summer. What can we do here in Cincinnati about all the chiggers. Every weeding or harvesting has meant so far either using tons of bugspray or getting many chigger bites. it's discouraging, though we love gardening. Thanks, Nancy
55.
Peg's Question: I have been having rather remarkable expansion processes for the past year or so, only to discover you and your books a couple months ago (thank you thank you thank you). I am thriving on all levels and want guidance and clarity on how to steward the energy and insights flooding in. Would essences/conings help?
54.
Joyce's Question: In late 2008 I started taking ETS Plus, gradually adding Flu Balancing, FSBS Plus, EOP, Immune and Lymphatic. I have put the dropper in my mouth touching my teeth and my tongue. Have I contaminated all of my bottles? Should I be taking these drops from a spoon? Thank you.
53.
Anneli's Question: Hello Machaelle, thank you for having this question forum! Recently I had a MAP-coning open (have been on this road for almost a year now), and asked why I had such problems to actually make my intentions "go real". The answer was a door shown for my inner eye, and I was asked if I wanted to go through this door. After making sure I would have my kids on the other side safely with me (and some other hesitations), I went through. The place I got to, it had me thinking "I can let my sons play freely here, I don't have to look after them all the time and worry!" It was green and lushy, but I could also feel the presence of people quite much living in balance with nature (caring a lot about it). I call this place Edgy now, and I wonder if this could be an "edge/piece" of the Cottage level? "Being" there made me understand what our world and lives could be like here on Earth level, and it gave me an inner guideline to recognize and follow when balancing my environment. Thank you.

Jane Dare's Question: We're away from Texas and our 15+lab, Tori, has been vomiting most of her meals. Don't even know if Nome has a vet. What's our first move with it? We have the sets of essences with us, no microbials, the ETS for animals, no EoP?
51.
Beth Rees's Question: 1. My dog has liver disease. I'm doing the animal health coning and using animal ETS+. Can I use flower essences for deeper results or do you suggest EoP or both? 2. I am helping my husband in his business. Since it is his practice how can I help him to greater satisfaction and profitability using the SG concepts?
50.
Jane Dare's Question: Is there a way to bathe in the EoP and have Nature replenish it so that we are not spending an 8oz. bottle of the stuff each week?
49.
Jane Dare's Question: What does one do when the weather isn't cooperating and we have addressed it in the SLG coning?
48.
Hilary's Question: My third question& please forgive my 'satiable curtiosity & When we open an MBP coning we stabilize the electrical system with flower essences, but in SLG conings ETS plus is used to do this. What's the difference?
47.
Jane Dare's Question: Can activating a gut garden work with soil-less gardens?
46.
Ellen Schumann's Question: Hi Machaelle and all, Several of my friends and I have been feeling that the main problem we face with the environmental challenges have come from the Earth devas being ignored for so long, and not only ignored, but not even acknowleged as existing. Thank you for giving us a structure or format for working with them instead of ignoring or dominating. I personally can see that my old methods of working in a garden were completely self centered. It is quite a hard task to change my ways, but I am at least beginning to try. I have just checked in to thank everyone.
45.
meredith's Question: Machaelle, This spring I made a copper Genesa crystal for our garden. It looks pretty good but some of the rings are mis-shapened. Is this still good to have in the garden or will the oblong rings distort the energy flow and/or create negativity within the garden? Hope you are enjoying your mint iced tea, I am.
44.
Elizabeth's Question: We just moved to Boise, ID and sent brief email queries to the 3 addresses on your networking list to see if anyone lives in or near Boise. Two were returned as undeliverable and there was no response from the third. So we thought we'd ask today in hopes someone on the forum lives near Boise and would like to connect with a couple retirees who have been using Perelandra products and procedures since 1990. (We also listed this goal as part of our Move SLG, but so far without results.) Thanks.
43.
Hilary's Question: I've had such fun zooming round the scavenger hunt (it taught me that you'd written a 3rd edition of Behaving, so I ordered a copy!) Thanks for your first answer — very helpful. My 2nd relates to flower essence telegraph testing for the Miasms process. What advice can you give for creating the necessary intense focus on a mental/emotional symptom? Should I REALLY get into the negative emotion or thought pattern? How will I know if it's strong enough?
42.
Elizabeth's Question: Since we are updating to the DVDs as they become available, the VHS tapes we purchased long ago are no longer needed by us. Is there a program for donating the VHS tapes to people who would like to have them but can't afford them or to an organization?
41.
Fiona's Question: Love your work. I had a soul reading from a very experienced reader. She said my energy was very different that I am an incarnated deva and I should get in touch with you...?
40.
Katherine Rose's Question: Hi Machaelle - My question has to do with ETS for Humans. I've been under incredible stress and fear lately for a lower back issue that is very painful and seems to be taking months to heal, so I've started to use ETS (and EoP) to calm down and center myself. Sometimes I need the ETS many times a day. Can one overuse it such that it stops becoming effective? I'm reaching for it several times a day sometimes and am concerned that that is too much on an ongoing basis. Thank you!

Cathy's Question: I volunteer at a local wildlife garden that has a field, pond, woods, and demonstration garden of native plants and wildflowers. We are having trouble with an alien invasive plant, dog-strangling vine, which is gobbling up large parts of the landscape. As one who helps care for this land, is it proper etiquette for me to perform a soil balancing, energy cleansing, etc. to try to return some balance to the area?
38.
Mary Riley's Question: For the past eight years, I have had a facial spasm (checked out with a neurologist in D.C. and at Johns Hopkins with the solution being to have Botox injections, which I will not do). During this time, I have used a MAP team to try to resolve this issue and I have also used the Microbial Balancing Program. In addition, I take all of the Microbial Balancers every night before bedtime. But, the facial spasm (which started as an eye twitch) continues. Any suggestions?
37.
Linda Morse's Question: Yikes.......will aim for underthinking questions! New use for EoP.....focused and clear mind.
36.
Deborah Dole's Question: Sorry, I am concerned I am not getting a positive for the flu essence.
35.
Laurie's Question: Hi Machaelle, Last Open House I asked a ? about public speaking and didn't give background info needed. I actually had success with my first round of introductions after taking an ETS+ bath, using EOP, etc. The thing is, the job that is right for my soul involves just a bit of public speaking and this was a skill that I came into the world with, but had something bad happen to me that turned it into something traumatic. So . . . I'm just wondering if there's anything else I can be doing in terms of process to keep this issue from taking so much energy out of me to go where I want/need to go in life? Does that make sense?
34.
Ann Vogel's Question: My sister suffered a severe stroke after delivering twins and was in a coma for two and one half months. She is now recovering from her stroke and has incurred brain damage from her incident. Can any of your products assist her brain in a more complete healing. Unfortunately I live in a different state than her so I can't do the flower essences on her on a regular basis, however if she consents - which she is able to make conscious decisions - is there anything I could do for her remotely? Her main issues are confusion in the moment. Her long term memory is excellent and her short term memory is not bad. She is there cognitively. She walks, but with some issues from being in a coma for so long - her muscles froze up because they didn't offer her therapy while she was in a coma. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. She is 42 years old. She had a natural and healthy delivery. Her babies are doing fine. Thank you.
33.
Cathy's Question: I'm getting a puppy in 3 weeks and want its training to be nature-friendly. Would I open a coning with the Deva of dogs and list various training methods? Or should this incorporate a 4-point coning? Would a gut-garden for puppy training work? What are your suggestions on the best way to do this?
32.
barb Klepper's Question: Is it safe for nursing mothers to use the Microbial Balancing Solutions while nursing?
31.
Lisa Abram-Nelson's Question: Greetings Machaelle- I'm unclear about the connections made during surrogate testing for essences. I've been connecting to the deva of essences, then my higher self, then testing myself until clear and then adding the new person and connecting with their "electrical system". I've been leaving the connection open with my higher self during this time. Is that right? Is their electrical system different from their higher self? I feel I've been getting good results this way, but would like to understand the process as it was intended. Thanks.
30.
Lori's Question: Where could I order some bear fat? ROFLMAO. Just Kidding. Thank you for your advice. I'll try it out.
29.
Theresa's Question: I share office space with the guy managing the construction of the new public golf course in our town. If I stick my head in his office and ask his permission to shift flower essences to his golf course he's likely to tell me to go for it without ever looking up from the irrigation computer. Am I ethically obligated to tell him that his worst employees might quit but that better applicants will show up?
28.
Maureen Shepard's Question: Can cats/dogs really "catch" H1N1? How does taking FSBS+ help them?
27.
Rose's Question: Question: Any suggestions for how individuals can support our President in addition to how we feel moved to act physically in the world? And a health care system -- i.e., can we make an SLG for such because we are part of this country?
