This book is a collection of my life stories and beliefs and how I healed myself using thought and the art of meditation. There was a time when I was so sick that I felt hopeless and fed up. I was not finding answers to any questions I had about my Crohn's Colitis. When I got the doctor's final recommendation that the only cure was removing part of my intestine and replacing it with something manmade (a colostomy bag), I realized I had to take a stand. I asked myself why my body was fighting me. I asked what in my brain was telling my body to attack itself. These are the questions that seemed to have no answer because I had no one to ask. I felt alone. Twenty years have gone by now and using meditation I have learned that the answers are within me. I am in the right time of my life and everything has come together to a point where I truly understand what I have done and can share it with you. Each one of these stories shows the power of thoughts of healing. Each story leaves you to ask the important questions of yourself so that you can find your own answers. This book is about healing from the inside-out. In this book I share my stories and a simple meditation technique that you can follow on your path to empower yourself.

The pursuit of happiness
We have different perceptions of what that means - among ourselves, and
within ourselves - as we experience myriad events (joyous or otherwise)
such as - activities, relationships, activities, learning, challenges, contentions,
problems. Whether we automatically think of it or not, each of those events
contributes (positively or negatively) to our mental, physical, psychological
and spiritual development; for being happy is good, but being happy as we
develop is satisfyingly sublime.
This book, "The Dream Channel' is designed to itemize and explain various
aspects of the twenty-four "Tools of Living' we all have in common, yet that we, as individuals, are constantly treating subjectively in agreement with our differing (sometimes unstable) needs, desires, emotions, and values.
The Supreme Being has loaned us these tools, and, through His gift of
dreams, urges us to utilize these taken-for granted tools so as to allow
us the mental, physical, psychological, and spiritual development
of sublime happiness.
Here are 12 of the 24 primary tools, including examples of the
associated auxiliary tools s that are utilized in dreams:
Resources - book, vehicle, money
Space - interior and exterior
Senses - sound, taste, touch, smell
Illumination - light, darkness, color
Order - clean, repair, tailor, reproduce
Motion - walk, ride, drive, fly, fall
Vegetation - soil, dust, lawn
Climate - heat, cold, thunder
Communication - thought, speech, gestures
Intimacy - sexual activity, pregnancy, marriage
Anatomy - people, hand, face, infant, health
Garment - wearing apparel, nakedness
Yes, these tools (over 160) are used in dreams; dramas meant for one individual only - private and personal dramas. Specifically, each dream molds and relates to matters of your
life in harmony with your temperament, your intelligence, your
frames of mind, your dispositions, your affections, your traits,
your lifestyle, your foibles, your habits, your peculiarities, your
tendencies - as well as to the same elements of others with whom
you come in contact, or by whom you are affected.
