an island in our globalised village, anyway. Inner self-sufficiency,therefore, is not only possible, but seems to be the very thing we arecalled to do now.This approach arms us inthe best possible wayto deal with the greatvariety of outward, worldly disturbances to which we are currentlybeing increasingly exposed. It's fundamentally both an attitudinalchange (see our story on how people are coping in Zimbabwe,page 16, as an example of adapting to seriously difficult conditions)and a shift of our internal landscape, so that we are far less affectedby untoward or unexpected outer upheavals. The beginning of thisprocess is to slow down, at least now and again, reconnect withyourself, catch your breath, both literally and figuratively (see ourstory on managing your mind and brain, page 24), and understandthat life is best experienced by living fromthe inside out and not theother way around.Peace is, ultimately, a state of mind, not a condition of SOCiety.Indeed, without a growing number of people achieving an innerharmony and balance - in spite of outer turbulence - the chancesof peace being something real in our lives, either individually orcollectively, diminishes dramatically. In these times of change, then,what we must change most of all is ourselves - and our attitude tochange. All life, all of history, shows that change is inevitable andis, ultimately, good, albeit frequently disturbing and troubling in theshort-term. Cultures and socio-political systems mired in decades orcenturies of rigidity, imbalance and inhumane relationships can onlychange through some degree of upheaval and disturbance, as wehavebeen seeing inthe Arab countries ofNorth Africaand elsewherein recent times. Few are they who can say these changes are notlong overdue. And so too, both atthe macro scale of the planet as awhole, whose resources we are using uptoo fast and/or are pollutingtoo quickly for natural recovery systems to cope, and at the microscale, in ourselves, where all the 'stuckness' of the past has beenholding us back from whole new, more adaptive ways of being.With majorongoing revolutions on severalfronts - bio-tech, emergent'green' industries and IT - all moving at unprecedented, break-neckpace, evenas the planet itselfbegins to shiver,shake and change itsclimatic behaviour inweird and unpredictable ways as itreacts to ourincreasing impacts upon it, humanity is inthe grip of the most rapid,far-reaching tidal wave of change it has probably everfaced.Now, then, is the time for each of us to fall back on our innerresources, to find our own centre and not rely on outer authority andsystems; to be ready to make the most of the best aspects of thechanges sweeping our world. Ifwe do so, the tomorrow we face isnot bleak, inhospitable and marginally survivable, but comfortableand comforting, inclusive, adaptive and adaptable. We are beingcalled to make a collective 'software upgrade' in our individual - andthereby collective - thinking so that we can learn to live in peace witheach other and our environment. It is a huge challenge butwe haveno choice - and while making the great leapto the nextstage inourevolution asa species maybe very hard, itwill also open the door toa future which is truly beyond our wildest dreams for a brighter andbetter way of being.We, at Odyssey Magazine, invite you, our readers, to take anotherstep with us in the great human journey into self-discovery andself-mastery so thatwe may all live lives that are full, worthy and, onthe whole, gOOd.

ThetaHealing is described as an amazing healing and self-developmentmodality that is spreading like wildfire throughout the world. Withthousands of people claiming its benefits in over 15 countries,ThetaHealing has reached South Africa where people can now qualifyas practitioners. Eric Richardson reports.D eveloped byViannaStibal intheuSA, ThetaHealingmaintains that when we are predominantly in thetheta brainwave state (which is very slow, andtends to be characterised by an internal focus) we caneasily tap into the quantum field where we can activateand witness amazing physical, emotional and spiritualhealing. Although we all access theta (4-7Hz or cycles persecond) while asleep, theta healers or practitioners learnhow to access this state instantly while awake by shiftingtheir consciousness and connecting with the 'Creator ofall that is', or what some may call the 'Universal Mind','Source Enerqy', 'the Light', 'God', 'the Almighty', and soon.

Once 'connected', and predominantly in the thetastate, the trained practitioner is said to be able to workdirectly with the client's body, even down to fundamentallevels such as their DNAand genes. Our DNAcarries theblueprint to our physical and psychological makeup,storing memory of our genetic characteristics down theancestral line. Some illnesses can be transferred throughthe genes to the next generation but with ThetaHealingthe DNAis believed to be repaired, so that the disease isnot recreated.. After gaining permission and identifying

imbalances in the body, the theta healer can activateand witness cellular changes from what is referred toas the 'master cell' in the pineal gland. By working withthe morphogenetic field (see work by Rupert Sheldrakeon this, or by Carl Jung on his version, the collectiveunconscious), the practitioner 'teaches' the client's body,to replace the old dying cells with new healthy cells. Inother words, the practitioner can help eradicate the illnessby encouraging the body to 'replace' diseased cells withhealthy, well-functioning ones. Instant or near-instanthealings of physical illnesses are consequently said tobe possible. This was revealed to Vianna Stibal after herhealing from cancer, according to her account.

The ThetaHealing practitioner can also activatedormant DNA,including in the mitochondria. Mitochondriaproduce the energy to run cells in our bodies. Once aperson's DNA is 'activated', the activation will replicatethrough the body for three to six months. DNAactivationrestores our original abilities, including what some call'psychic' aspects, allowing us to manifest our desires(and fears) very quickly. Although it is not clear as towhy these components were 'deactivated' in our past, itis believed that once reactivated, our own 'spiritual gifts'

awaken one by one. With DNA activation, we are said tobecome genetically hardwired to be six-sensory, our healthstabilises, and we gain the ability to heal ourselves, all withgrace and ease according to practitioners of this system.

The key to ThetaHealing is what is called the 'FourLevel Belief Work' which people should experience priorto the DNA activation. This enables a person to releaselimiting beliefs and fears before becoming (potentially)a 'master manifester'. The practitioner can help a clientquickly and simply to locate and reprogram limiting beliefs,assumptions, feelings, emotional patterns and blocks storeddeep within his/her subconscious mind. Different from mostother energy and spiritual healing modalities, ThetaHealingis said to potentially help a client to instantly change theunconscious causes of his/her life or health challengeswithout hands-on healing, tapping, machines or hypnosis.

ThetaHealing is based on the well-known idea that ourbody and life problems are connected to limiting beliefs andassumptions that create programs held on a subconsciouslevel. Negative beliefs create negative programs which,in turn, affect our consciousness and energy states, andour bodies and the universe simply respond to theseprograms, regardless of whether or not they are servingour best interests. While in the theta brain wave state,the practitioner identifies and helps cancel the negativeprograms on each level (core, genetic, history, or soul level)that are negatively affecting the client.

For example, a child with an abusive parent may havelearnt that loved-ones cannot be trusted. She or he maygrow up being afraid of her/his father. This fear may beprojected on to other men, making it hard for her/him tolove and trust men. The subconscious belief system of a girlchild who grows up with such an experience - developedand entrenched over time - will try to protect her fromfurther trauma by keeping men at a distance. It may drawconclusions like: 'Men cannot be trusted', 'I deserve tobe abused', or 'If I love I will be hurt'. These core beliefs(not necessarily known to her on a conscious level) willaffect the way she perceives the world - and who she getsclose to. Although she may think she can simply discardthe hurtful experiences and messages, it is not that easy.Our beliefs create our reality - and we see and experiencethe world through the lens of those beliefs, conscious ornot. So the fear (with associated subconscious beliefs)will send out 'vibes' which attract more of the same, notbecause the universe wants to 'punish' us, but becausewe are constantly called to become ever more conscious

of what actually drives us at the deepest levels. Unlessthe beliefs contributing to distrust of men, as in the abovecase, are transformed, the universe will keep proving herright - and she will probably keep getting hurt by menwho cannot be trusted, so maintaining a cycle of struggleuntil a breakthrough takes place and the unconsciousprogramming is made conscious and its power convertedfrom negative to positive.

While in the grip of unconscious negative beliefs, she.may experience depression or illness since it's hard to stayhealthy when one has toxic beliefs and emotions affectingone's interaction with the world. To change her life, and tohelp her from self-sabotaging behaviour, her subconsciouscore beliefs need to change. Shewill also need to learn howto trust, love and be loved without fear.

Louise Hay was perhaps the first person to bring tomainstream awareness the direct connection betweennegative thoughts and disease or illness in the body. Shealso pioneered the repeated use of positive affirmationsthat over time will be anchored in the subconscious tobecome the dominant 'vibration' or thought pattern. WithThetaHealing this process is sped up significantly. With theclient's permission, a certified ThetaHealing practitionerwill be able to help by permanently 'pulling' or releasingthe disempowering programs which are not serving his/herhighest and greatest good.

Unfortunately, if the client in our example has lived withfear of men for a long time, her body may have becomeaddicted to the peptides associated with this painful feeling.The cells may actually crave these chemicals, and may senda message to the brain to manufacture more. The brainstarts thinking negative thoughts which fire off the neuronsthat create the peptides to feed the body's addiction. Thepractitioner knows how to bypass the filter between theconscious and the subconscious mind, and is said to beable to witness new empowering programs and feelingsbeing 'downloaded' into the client. Once these limitingsubconscious beliefs have been changed, and her DNA andbody have been taught the new beliefs and feelings, shewill heal accordingly. The new positive beliefs will create

positive thoughts that create peptides which send wonderfulfeelings through the body. Not only that, but the woman willalso send out different 'vibes' that will affect her externalworld too. Through ThetaHealing, a person is able to alignthemselves to who it is they really are at the level of soul,and to manifest joy and abundance by working with the lawof attraction more consciously.

Vianna Stibal, whose first book is now published by HayHouse, describes ThetaHealing as a way to tap into clearanswers. Shesays: 'It enables the participant to find limitingbeliefs and change them instantly. No long goals, no readingaffirmations, novoodoo-who-do, just a simple realisation anddecision to change them and then witnessing the Creatorinstantly change them.' ThetaHealing enables people to beself-reliant, self-responsible and self-empowered by workingholistically with the mind, body, soul and spirit.

The three-day beginner's course is now offered in SouthAfrica. It introduces ThetaHealing techniques and the fivebrainwave types, and focuses on activating the dormantcomponents of DNA within each participant. The chronos, or'youth and vitality' chromosome, is activated, the telomeresare strengthened to reverse the aging process, andstudents experience an opening to what can be called the'unconditional love of the Divine or Creator of all that is'.

The heart of this class is the practice of techniques

that allow you to change life patterns held in place bycore, genetic, historic and soul beliefs, either self-inflictedor externally imposed. The student learns to identify his/her own subconscious beliefs and assumptions, as wellas to practice 'pulling them' for others in the class. Thispractice quickly reveals systems of belief that might taketraditional psychotherapy years to uncover, showing thebody how to replace limiting beliefs or feelings with positiveones which support health and healing. Issues of safety areemphasised, especially when facilitating genetic changes inthe body.

Other topics and exercises include tapping into yourintuitive abilities, learning discernment when workingwith higher energies, an introduction to the laws ofmanifestation, balancing seretonin and noradrenaline levels,'pulling' heavy metals and radiation, attracting soul mates,working with and across the 'seven planes of existence andcosmic laws', and the protocols for facilitating the healing ofa great variety of conditions and diseases. Bythe end of theworkshop, the participant should have experienced muchhealing and growth, and will be an internationally certifiedThetaHealing practitioner. 0
