Geopathic-Stress-Solutions Newsletter In this issue: Bodydowsing by Werner Brandmaier Bodydowsing Dowsing is an old tradition and best known as Geopathic Stress a method to locate underground water veins for wells. We use dowsing in our Feng Shui practice to detect energetic structures carrying Geopathic Stress (areas which increase decay About the Institute of Feng Shui and Geopathology: and often can be found in close correlation The Institute of Feng Shui and Geopathology was founded with longterm illness). in 2000 to provide information about geopathic and electro- magnetic -field-related stress and to offer solutions for protection.

Our products are designed to support the body by helping to neutralize these environmental stressors, as well as boost the our intuitive capabilities. The right part of our overall energetic matrix of a healthy body. brain, representing the intuitive aspect, works as a parallel processor and is incredibly fast. Brief history of Geopathology: Since the early 1900's European researchers have investigated the effects of earth The left brain, the rational mind, acts more as energies on people's health and the mechanisms which lead to a serial processor, dealing with one issue at a terminal illnesses, especially cancer. The first documented, and, quite famous experiment, conducted in 1929 by German time, slowing down the overall performance of aristocrat Gustav Freiherr von Pohl, showed a significant our "bio-computer" dramatically. correlation between cancer and Geopathic (earth-related, harmful) Stress patterns in a person's living space. If we watch ourselves carefully when we make important decisions, we often had a gut sense Research since strongly confirms these findings. While information about Geopathic Stress slowly becomes recognized, when we first considered the issue at hand. new environmental challenges are appearing, caused by the rapid development of technology. Beginning two decades ago, Looking back, we recognize that we should with suspicions about increased cancer rates around radar have followed this intutition in the first place antenna clusters, awareness is growing that modern instead of listening to the arguments our conveniences might have some "side effects".

Dowsing allows us to tap into that About the products: There are many facets to the subconscious aspect, and with that connects development of the products. Besides the materials and designs, us to our innate knowledge and wisdom. there are specific energetic elements Werner has worked with, researched and tested over the last 10 years: an integration of his knowledge of engineering, Traditional Chinese Medicine, Dowsing in most cases is practised by using dowsing, and resonance frequency equipment. different tools. Water dowsers originally used Research and testing: As far as the testing of the products, to tree branches shaped like a Y (Y-rods), but this point we have not found any device subtle enough to test also L-rods (wires bent into an L-shape), or the abilities of the tools. Werner has tried out a range of testing pendulums. Over the last few decades devices; however there are none at this time that would allow us to do proper research. To this point we have relied on Applied additional versions such as tensors (bobbers) Kinesiology and dowsing, live-blood microscopy, aura pictures, came into fashion. Tensors (bobbers) have a but mostly reports from clients, chiropractors, MD's, osteopathic doctors, , dowsers, clairvoyants, Tai Chi Masters, Pranic Healers, handle with a steel wire coming out about a foot with a ring or a ball on the end. and many other energy workers. In addition, we very often teach clients a simple form of testing called "BodyDowsing".

The more precise the question, the clearer the However all the tools work very well. They don't really answer! Instead of asking: "Should I get this CD?" it do anything by themselves, but serve as pointers to is better to ask: "Would getting this be beneficial amplify the dowser's own sensitivity. Dowsing works by for me in any way at this time?" translating a micro-muscle response in the hand into an amplified swing of a tensor. If we consider dowsing as a method to help us decide what's best for us, for our body, sometimes even for our wallet (by not buying stuff we don't really need), then we should probably take a dowsing instrument along with us all day: to the grocery store to see which foods are healthier for us, to choose which brand of vitamin C is most beneficial for us, even to a bookstore to find out if a book is worth buying. At this point I'd also like to mention Applied Kinesiology as another method to determine the body's true response. When Dr. George Goodheart wrote his book "Your Body Doesn't Lie" he introduced a method to access the same inner wisdom. Standard Kinesiology, however, requires a second person for the testing Here is how it works: procedure although there are some ways to test Stand straight and relaxed and try to feel your yourself. body's subtle movements, understanding that we are on two feet and unconsciously Let's get practical now: balancing ourselves all the time. The only problem that holds us back from using dowsing in everyday situations is that it looks weird when we Now ask a question where the body would pull out our dowsing instruments and they start moving show a clear "Yes" response, e.g. "Show me a about seemingly on their own. Most people wouldn't be Yes" or "Is my name _______ (your name)?" If comfortable walking through a store with their this is a true statement, the body will start to pendulum or tensor bobbing along with them. We move. might ask a friend to join us to test us with Applied Usually a "yes" or "confirmation" lets the Kinesiology -- by testing the strength of our arm with upper body fall slightly forward (towards an each individual item, but again that looks pretty object, if you're testing something specific). A dramatic. "no" would make you fall backward, as if being repelled by it. Wouldn't it be so much easier if we could apply that method in a much more discreet way? Here is the solution: BODY DOWSING. Body dowsing Now start to practice and establish some confidence. uses the response of our body in a simple and quick way Of course it is much easier to find results for other to tell us if our body is attracted to or repelled by people or for situations where you are not personally something. And remember: The body does not lie. involved. Dowsing for yourself to answer bigger questions can be tricky. If there is any emotional I like to teach this exercise in my classes. It just takes a entanglement or bias for a possible outcome, e.g. when few minutes. Children are naturals and pick it up very asking "Should I date this person?" (you thought of that easily. Women are often a bit more sensitive than men, question already, didn't you?), you can ask a friend or but everybody can do it. I recommend that you practice third person, ideally someone who is neutral. Don't tell for a while before you start asking general questions. him/her your question/s. Just ask him/her to test you The range of applications is wide: e.g. "Would buying for some answers while you go through the different that CD help my inner development?" Or at least: questions in your mind, one at a time. "Would I truly enjoy listening to it?".

Sometimes Webster's: "geo" - of the earth; "pathology" - all the other results might occur: One might fall backward for a conditions, processes or results of a particular disease. "yes" and forward for a "no". We call this "switched".
