A Letter from the ACEP President

At this time of global turbulence, I want to send each of you a personal greeting to encourage your holding inner peace and being centered. I feel a personal link to the complex suffering that is happening to our human community because this second Gulf War started on my birthday and I am a survivor of saturation bombing and street war in Berlin in WW II. Out of my experiences as a survivor, I want to share thoughts of resilience and courage in the face of this great unfolding tragedy.
May we each with energy balancing approaches bring a light of hope to ourselves and those around us! May we each learn to be spiritual peacemakers, releasing judgment and focusing on the highest good!
Here are a few suggestions for those of you who would like some practical ideas for overcoming helplessness and staying empowered.

* Be aware of any conflicts within yourself. This is an ideal time to reach out to others with your caring and compassion and to mend any personal rifts that may exist within your family or friends.
* Actively contribute to help someone in need.
* Treat yourself regularly with self-affirmations. For example, "Even though I feel fear and helplessness around me, I deeply and profoundly accept and respect the power within me and trust in my higher guidance."
* Connect with people who share your values and make sure they hold a sense
of humor and objectivity.
* Limit your media viewing time. Remember the media seek to arouse emotions so that we feel overwhelmed and intimidated and crave more media coverage. You can stop this addiction to adrenaline rush by limiting viewing time and focusing on peace building.
* Pray for the leaders of the world that they may open their hearts and minds to find resolution and to work for the greater good of all.
* Rather than looking for total triumphs or quick solutions, recall that historically through ongoing victories and defeats, ups and downs, our collective consciousness is growing. This is the first time that war has been questioned as a viable solution on a worldwide
scale. This is the first time that distress has been registered so visibly to everyone and we recognize we live on a fragile planet, our spaceship earth.
* Do the things that have meaning for you. Allow peace to grow within yourself. Feel the connection with the lightworkers of our Association, our worldwide network of energy healers.
In the spirit of peace and caring,
Moral stories can improve your moral values.
Dorothea, Dr. Dorothea Hover-Kramer, ACEP President
