Dear Louise,
My sister with whom I live (we are both
seniors) isn't well and will be facing surgery soon. My problem is that
when I cry about this situation, I get optical migraines. So, in order
to avoid these, I don't allow myself to break down. I pray instead.
What's your advice to me? Thank you, and God bless.
C.H., Hollywood, CA
It saddens my heart
when I hear so many older people going in "for surgery." I
always think of that as a last resort. I wonder how much your sister
has worked with nutrition and complementary healing. Removing junk
foods from the diet and eating whole, fresh, natural foods can
contribute so much toward healing.
It seems to me that
you're carrying some guilt about being responsible for your sister.
We're all under the law of our own consciousness and will do it our
way. I think the reason you get optical migraines is because you have
had a lifetime of holding in your emotions. Find a therapist to work
with, and release the burdens you have been carrying all these years.
Go dancing. Sing a silly nursery rhyme. Create some joy in your life.
You need to laugh. Affirm MY SISTER AND I ARE DIVINELY PROTECTED AND
GUIDED. THAT WHICH IS FOR OUR HIGHER GOOD UNFOLDS PERFECTLY BEFORE US.
WE JOYFULLY TRUST THE PROCESS.
Dear Louise,
I will soon be divorced, and have a
20-month-old son who recently developed a serious ear and sinus
infection. I'm wondering if he developed this because I was relating
some facts about his father to a friend while he was present.
He's fine now, but I would like to know
if the environment around my son makes a difference for his future
health.

Yes, children are very receptive to
the emotional environment around them. Your son, even though young, is
trying to heal the relationship between you and your husband. Do your
best to always speak positively about your husband in front of your
son. On the physical level, young children often develop ear
infections from ingesting dairy products. It would be good to remove
these from his diet for now.
You have my empathy. Single mothers
have so many difficult challenges to cope with. May your affirmations
be strong and always include attracting all the help you need to
provide a comfortable life for you and your son. Affirm I TRUST THE
UNIVERSE TO PROVIDE A LOVING, PROSPEROUS LIFE FOR MY SON AND ME.
Dear Louise,
I have long been a fan of yours. I am now
a massage therapist and a physical therapy assistant. Recently I've seen
patients with muscle problems, in particular RSD (reflex sympathetic
dystrophy). Do have any affirmations for this? Thank you.
L.B., Toronto, Canada
Stress and resentment
contribute to many of the muscular problems out there today. RSD is a
chronic burning pain that can result in a dystrophy in the muscles.
Burning pain can indicate unresolved anger, and pain in the muscles
usually is associated with guilt or a belief in victimization. We find
it so hard to "let go," and yet we are only hurting
ourselves by holding on.
Some affirmations to
use are I LET THE PAST PASS. I APPRECIATE AND ACCEPT MY WHOLE,
WILLING, COURAGEOUS, AND HEALED SELF. AS MY LOVE FOR MYSELF GROWS, THE
PEACE WITHIN ME BLOSSOMS. I RELEASE THE BLAME AND RESENTMENT, AND I AM
FREE.
