of ideas, beliefs, attitudes, and experiences—thereby ever creating one’s self—we expand our knowing and grow in wisdom. We unfold the singular attributes of our spirit and offer a wholly unique perspective of consciousness to All that Is. Within this grand universal dance, each of is contributing entirely new dimensions to the lead edge of thought of which we are integral participants in this ever-evolving, ever-expanding universe. And it is because we are entirely free spirits pioneering on this cutting edge that we can make choices that might at times manifest experiences of bondage, frustration, and boredom, or symptoms of disease and physical deterioration. However, in the ever-changing nature of the physical universe, each and every experience is always temporary and changing, while our nonphysical spirit, our inner being, the creator, is eternal and forever ongoing.


“Desire is Spirit’s will to create. Activating my medicines with the breath of my desire to feel good, I focus my intent and breathe health into my potions.”

—T. ELDER SACHS

“In light of this, one must keep in mind that venturing into choices that manifest an experience of dis-ease is not a process of breaking or diminishing or devaluation. It is quite the contrary. Illness, like any and all other experiences, is just one of our current life’s transient manifestations. It is merely a signpost, an illustration, an intimate teacher, a passing experience indicating to us precisely how, from our current beliefs and mental attitude, our choices are flowing our creative energy relative to the broader intention of our inner being’s true nature. We are in process of gaining knowledge and wisdom about ourselves, about who we are, and thereby, which choices harmonize with the individual nature of our unique spirit. We are steering ourselves on our particular paths of joy.

“Experiencing disease is merely another venture of our innumerable, ongoing human processes for pressing forward, feeling, probing, and extending our individual creative boundaries. Therefore, plunging oneself into life—which I strongly recommend all beings do with full passion—rummaging through this world’s vast field of contrast, leaving no experience unconsidered—even though, sometimes, maybe even frequently, we get ourselves into trouble—is how each of us expands and evolves our valuable and indispensable being. Dear companions, our spirits have not projected themselves into this physical realm to be guarded and safe; we have come for adventure, to feel the delicious surge of passion, to flow life force as we create ever more glorious visions and experiences. Each of us is an ardent explorer, a seer, a warrior, and a monarch on a grand creative quest.

“Health and disease are the consolidation of one’s current mental attitude. Illness—not feeling good—is a powerful indicator that we are holding inner resistance to following our inherent path of joy. We are diverting our vision from focusing on our bliss, there in disallowing the vital free flow of our Source energy throughout our being. We are holding to thoughts, beliefs, and actions that are contrary to our individual true nature—and they do not feel good to us, but we fail to acknowledge the truth of there inner signals and so, for the time being, manifest like experiences of discontent and dis-ease. Experiencing the contrasting information that illness can afford us concerning who we are and what we want is one way that we can grow. It is a segment of our ongoing adventure, a succeeding step in the unending sequence of movements in our life’s dance; it is merely a motion forward in an unending series of forward motions that make up an individual’s unique evolution.

“The experience of health teaches us in the same way. Each and every one of our life experiences is of paramount significance to the creative unfolding of our spirit’s abiding journey and, therein, an integral part of the concerted evolution of all life, of All that Is. Blessed be diversity my dear friends. Each individual’s path is unique, and where one stands
