Heroes

A glamour-loving, funky, punky hippie healer with my own style. I’m contradictory in the extreme, but value truth and honesty above all and live my life on a positive vibe. A lipstick-wearing gardener, composter and recycler, I’ve been vegetarian for 29 years.
Scarlett’s House of Heavenly Healing is my work and my passion.
I offer long and short restorative healing packages.
Heavenly Healing Treats are long, traditional couch healing sessions where you come to me.
Heavenly Healing On The Go are shorter chair healing sessions where I come to you.
Details of all healing packages can be found in my blog 'Scarlett's House of Heavenly Healing'.
I believe strongly in the power of positivity, in word, thought and deed. For me this is the single most important key to healing your life. What you think is what you will get.
I also write a regular blog about healing and gardening and the general gorgeousness of life at:
www.heavenlyhealer.blogspot.com
Life wasn’t always like this though....
I was a bit of a girl in my day! The nightclub queen on the underground scene in London in the 80s with Cha Cha 1981-82 (cult one-nighter at the back bar of Heaven nightclub in London), upstairs bar at Ronnie Scott's 1982, Camden Palace 1983-84, as well as many one-off events and warehouse parties. I graced the pages of many fashion and art publications, and walked the runways of Paris, London and Tokyo throughout the decade, with a brief sanity break when I worked as a gardener. Through the 90s I worked in and around fashion management, arts and event production industries.
In 1995 I learned Rebirthing and so started on my life healing journey. After finishing my Reiki studies in 2000 I left the fashion industry and temped for a while, nourishing myself with long Asian winters, mostly in India, and slowly bringing my healing practice to fruition. I’m a party girl who also needs extreme solitude. Champion of the underdog, sensitive and aware of injustice since childhood, I’ve always been political. I have strong principles that I try to live by, even if it means losing money, because I'm not driven by money. I'm driven by joy.
I am a fully qualified and insured Healing Therapist. I have also studied crystal healing, rebirthing, past life therapy and participated in workshops and study groups working with many other spiritual energies.
I work from the heart.
Every day I visit TheHungerSite.com and click to feed the hungry. Please consider doing the same.
Who I'd like to meet: I'd like to meet like-minded people who want to communicate and collaborate on my master plan to heal the world!
I'd like to meet people who love LOVE and who love the power of positivity. Buy my positive energy t-shirts at www.SHoHH.etsy.com. Read my blog 'Wearing the Power of Positivity' for more information.
I'd like to meet people who understand and fully accept the contradictions of life without judgement. Ultimately there are no contradictions because everything is paradox. I adore boxing but abhor violence. I'm vegetarian but I do wear leather shoes, and just because I’m a healing therapist I don’t have to stay home living a sedentary life, go to bed at 9pm and spend every spare moment meditating (although I do actually meditate with Runes every day!). I love to go out dancing and enjoy myself and I continue to be an absolute social whirler, and I hope I always will!
And I want to meet clients who'd like to come and see me for a healing session. Have a look at my blog: 'Scarlett's House of Heavenly Healing' gives details of my sessions, and there's some client feedback in 'Testimonials'.
There are many living people I would like to meet, but if I could meet the dead I'd choose Bette Davis, Kasturba Gandhi, Queen Elizabeth I and William Shakespeare.
Please note that I DO NOT add people with private profiles unless I know you personally.
Scarlett The Heavenly Healer's Friend Space (Top 20)
Come into this night Here we'll be gone Come into this night So far away From our weak and crumbling lives Lost and astray When days are done In what's vanished from your eyes
What came and distorted your sight
Saw you benighted by your fright Your plight alone Carry your weight Come into this night Come into this night You are flawed as all of us It's never too late Your only home
And atone with your lonely soul Come into this night To repent, suffer the loss To undo your deeds When you're able Once you're into this night Forget all your needs All minds are stable Lose the grip of all control
Hope your having beautiful week Cool Peace and much love Terry :)
Hello Scarlett , thank you for accepting my invitation to add you as a friend. My name is Emmitt. I am an artist in San Antonio, Texas,USA. I hope that you like my paintings and sculpture. I am adding more drawings soon. I apreciate your comment. It is very nice meeting you.I love your beautiful long hair , it is so pretty.
Hi Scarlett, and many thanks for your kind comment. You have a wonderful profile, and much of which I'm interested on the page which is a real pleasure to vist.
On bended knee is no way to be free Lifting up an empty cup, I ask silently All my destinations will accept the one that's me So I can breathe...
Circles they grow and they swallow people whole Half their lives they say goodnight to wives they'll never know A mind full of questions, and a teacher in my soul And so it goes...
Don't come closer or I'll have to go Holding me like gravity are places that pull If ever there was someone to keep me at home It would be you...
Everyone I come across, in cages they bought They think of me and my wandering, but I'm never what they thought I've got my indignation, but I'm pure in all my thoughts I'm alive...
Wind in my hair, I feel part of everywhere Underneath my being is a road that disappeared Late at night I hear the trees, they're singing with the dead Overhead...
Leave it to me as I find a way to be Consider me a satellite, forever orbiting I knew all the rules, but the rules did not know me Guaranteed....Eddie Vedder
Hope your having a good week Peace and much love Terry
Welcome to my circle of friends :-) I look forward to getting to know you. I hope you are having a lovely week my new friend Walk and touch peace every moment. Walk and touch happiness every moment. Each step brings a fresh breeze. Each step makes a flower bloom. Kiss the Earth with your feet. Bring the Earth your love and happiness. The Earth will be safe when we feel safe in ourselves. ~Thich Nhat Hanh Love & Blessings Raine x www.goodvibesgirl.co.uk
I am hoping that you can give me some input on an article I just wrote about oil prices for my blog at http://stockvalues.org/oil-up-gold-steady
Here is a brief summary:
When I last wrote about oil on Saturday, Dec 20, 2008, I was lucky enough to precisely pick the bottom of the West Texas Intermediate. (According to DOE data, Texas light sweet crude hit its daily five year low of $30.28 the following Tuesday.) Back then, an ounce of gold would buy you 21.3 barrels of oil, over 25% more than the 25 year average of 16.8 barrels. Currently, we are at 13.5 barrels of oil per ounce, which is almost 20% less than average. Given the deflationary economic environment and newly overheated stock market, I would rather bet on oil taking a tumble than gold prices catching up. Especially because other commodity prices confirm this line of thinking.
Your spirit moves on the water I watch as you take the shape of this heavenly being Your rising up like a river in flood All my words got made into flesh and blood The sky grew dark, as you shook the earth Just like a prophecy So I got down on my knees & and I prayed to the skies When I looked up could I trust my eyes? All the saints & angels & the stars up above Tells me
For every rose there is a separate spring. Orange leaves drift down through separate falls. Rivers dream their dreams while willows weep, Though none can tell what beauty it recalls. Years drain the memories to which we cling.
So do we dance within our separate bubbles Even as we share a common breeze, Viewing through a fragile film of troubles Each miracle a frightened heart might seize, Nor dare we touch its stillness, vast and deep. cool
I bring fresh showers for the thirsting flowers, From the seas and the streams; I bear light shade for the leaves when laid In their noonday dreams. From my wings are shaken the dews that waken The sweet buds every one, When rocked to rest on their mother's breast, As she dances about the sun. I wield the flail of the lashing hail, And whiten the green plains under, And then again I dissolve it in rain, And laugh as I pass in thunder.
And what is it but fragments of your own self you would discard that you may become free? If it is an unjust law you would abolish, that law was written with your own hand upon your own forehead. You cannot erase it by burning your law books nor by washing the foreheads of your judges, though you pour the sea upon them. And if it is a despot you would dethrone, see first that his throne erected within you is destroyed. For how can a tyrant rule the free and the proud, but for a tyranny in their own freedom and a shame in their own pride? And if it is a care you would cast off, that care has been chosen by you rather than imposed upon you.
And if it is a fear you would dispel, the seat of that fear is in your heart and not in the hand of the feared. Verily all things move within your being in constant half embrace, the desired and the dreaded, the repugnant and the cherished, the pursued and that which you would escape. These things move within you as lights and shadows in pairs that cling. And when the shadow fades and is no more, the light that lingers becomes a shadow to another light. And thus your freedom when it loses its fetters becomes itself the fetter of a greater freedom.

The word "Uirapuru" is the name of both an actual Amazonian bird and a mythical creature. In the rain forest the bird Uirapuru sings once a year, when it builds its nest; even then, only from five to ten minutes early in the morning. According to the legend, Uirapuru's song is so beautiful that all other birds stop singing to listen to it. Yet in another version of the legend, a human being is transformed after his death into the enchanted Uirapuru, breathing new life into the silent forest. Both in legend and reality Uirapuru is a symbol of rarefied beauty.
The Uirapuru is a bird involved in mysteries, a true legend and considered sacred because the ones who listens to its melody receives good luck and peace. Its singing spreads peace through all the places where it is heard.
Have a wonderful weekend and may the song and energy of the Uirapuru bird bring good luck and peace into your life,
It is there in the depths of my soul and there is a Wordless song - A song that lives in The seed of my heart. It refuses to Melt with ink on Parchmentor yet a dream it engulfs My affection In a transparent cloak And flows,
This is my way sayin thxs for being a myspace friend...
No mind, no form, I only exist; Now ceased all will and thought; The final end of Nature's dance, I am it whom I have sought. A realm of Bliss bare, ultimate; Beyond both knower and known; A rest immense I enjoy at last; I face the One alone. I have crossed the secret ways of life, I have become the Goal. The Truth immutable is revealed; I am the way, the God-Soul. My spirit aware of all the heights, I am mute in the core of the Sun. I barter nothing with time and deeds; My cosmic play is done.
