Life Filtering and Angelina Jolie

              Good afternoon all the lovely readers out there. Thank you for your comments. I apologize for my spelling program going off kilter lately and some post going out with typo’s. Ugly word that. Now onto our discussion.

I have been over run by the news that Ms. Jolie has had a double mastectomy to prevent breast cancer. I must applaud her courage and her lovers sheer stick-ability it is not an easy choice. I have a vague relation to this family and know that cancer has been the largest killer in her family. Most women in her family have died very young and from breast or ovarian cancer. I must say that sitting on the other side of the stream. That is having cancer I applaud her for making a decision that may cause her to live to see her childrens children grow up. And skewing the very thing that made her famous her body and her acting. Reconstruction can be done life goes on but life is never the same after you get the little C.  I call it that just to piss it off. You see each headache, cough or pain worries the ones you love to distraction. I had a bad day today and my husband had a seizure over it. I wish I could prevent this but it is our life.

Now is it the norm no should it be no but if you mom, your sisters and your aunts all have the brca gene and all have cancer it might be an option for you. However that does not mean that you can sit around and not make positive changes in you life now that can keep you healthy and happy. And just maybe like me you can change the programming of your cancer and let it just sit there. Like a pouting kid annoying but not deadly.

Now we are talking about manifesting and I want to talk to you about something people in the public eye have to do daily that not always enters our lives. FILTERING. What do I mean by that sweet friends. I mean spring cleaning for the soul. Taking out the toxic trash not only from you pantry but from your life. I know you get it those family members or friends who get on the phone with you and cannot wait to drain you of every decent braincell you have left. The drama the misery that is spread like Mayo onto your life and those around you. It is time to take tha shit to the curb. I know it sounds harsh but if you cannot listen then shelve it then it is time to hang up. Have you ever seen the Meg Ryan show Hanging Up where her dad is in full on demintia and she is the responsible one. Oh lord she is stressed and the phone never stops ringing she is the one person in the family who they can dump the dogs the problems and the stresses on. Then her dad dies and the phone stops ringing she tells her sisters to straighten up or ship out and life becomes manageable again. Well, folks it is spring cleaning and not only are we cleaning the sheets and under the beds but we need to be cleaning out our diets and our brains. So, here is you assignment for the day…. what do you need to say… hang up on or just get out of you that is festering………….. Let that marinate and then do it.

And say a small prayer for the Jolie-Pitt family that they keep the glue that binds them together and love is always there.

Many Blessings and Peace.

Manifesting It Applies to our Farmacy.

Well Tomato’s,

How did the goal listing and letting go of baggage go for the full Taurus Moon. The three day gift from the universe that allowed us to let the past go and stake a claim in a future filled without our old burdens and hang-ups.

I can tell you my two weeks leading up to the moon and eclipse and after were so different. Years ago and most of my childhood I had suffered from migraines and no offensive meant from one cancer warrior to another those headaches put me in the hospital three days a month or more and I never wanted to see them again. Well, hell Mr. Headache and Mr. Nerves, and Mrs… Drama Mama was in full display for the world to see. I was on emotional overload and boy my emotional baggage was emoting all over me.

I did what any life coach these days would do journal-ed an journal-ed. Finally a friend who will remain nameless but is brilliant and saw me complaining and emoting all over face-book and gave me the 411 on what in the world was happening and that it was an opportunity to change. Bravo. Because I was going to be nearly Headless Callie or this was going to stop.

So I began. I wrote down all the old crap: the things I thought I had worked through with the time on the couch, time on my knees in prayer and forgivenes of others and myself I really thought I had handled and truly let it all go. There is not even a seed of feeling for those emotions left anymore. Then I took a small journal and wrote out my five year plan. Now once I had the plan written I fleshed it out. When you ask the universe for something it has no response other than to comply. So be specific. I did the outline as stated then I began by explaining what a day in the my life would be in my new perfect home. The surfaces the feel walking into the house and out onto the sand. I want the hear, smell, taste, and vision of the rooms the air the city the state the physical address. Yep, I even googled my dream home and used it as a place to start! We are manifesting so we must be exact. Then I moved on to what a day at work. What would look like my office look like, how would  my job work and how my corporations would be run. Ahhh now the fun part how I would spend my down time my toys my car. What it would look and smell and feel like. The hot red covertible Mini Cooper with an engine to die for and tuck and roll black and white piped interior. I can even tell you the length of my hair. I got down and dirty with it. And in doing so I was able to see myself in my life. That is step number one. Really. You must do the foundation work but then you have to see yourself their daily and manifest a way of moving into your dream. My dream requires moving a thousand miles away but I am fine with it. I am ready for moderate weather and a lovely spray of beach front water. Since I live on the water here it seems silly to trade one place for another but since we have so much invested in life here we will keep the house and split our time.

So now I must begin to take steps to get their. Duncan had on his plan a new boat. Well, his idea of a boat and mine were completely different but ” THE GOOD LIFE” is now being gotten ready to bring home and I hope to spend the first week of summer yachting to Florida. Well, I will be tanning he will be Captian of the ship. Lucy will be the mascot. Mojitos, Hawaiin Tropic Suntan Lotion and loads of maxi dresses and good shampoo. I am so thrilled he never wants a things but worked so hard for us. He deserves it. Photos to follow.

Now how does this apply to our Farmacy because yes I did get off track but no I didn’t in the long run. I  have marvelous news I will not mention her name as I have not asked her permission to write about her. My cancer warrior sister just cured her CLL CANCER. She is an amazing part of the Clean Gut office and she is brilliant writer and blogger. You can find her at http://wwwgracefedmama.com I am not going to use the word cure so loosely she is cancer negative and that is cured in my eyes and she has been to hell and back to make sure she was here to see her kids grow up and her life is bigger than I can imagine. When everyone was going left she turned right and did what her body told her was right and boom! After working her buns off she is well. I am so proud I cannot stop grinning.

Now let’s apply our manifesting to our food and our lifestyle. Because as in all things if you cannot see it happening then it will not happen. Think yourself thin, by jouraling your perfect food life then work daily to get there. Life is a lot different now than when I started. Another friend if you are here in Mobile is Tracy Glover she is a making a week of home cooked and vegan meals for about 200 bucks a week that includes shopping cooking and making even dessert each day and she is fabulous. She has a face-book page with a menu of the week and the food is amazing. So if you are not in the mood for a total kitchen restock. Call Tracey. Also take every canned and processed thing out of your house and donate it to a church or catholic social services in your area. Some people are jus worried about having a meal and those donations go a long way. Since we are blessed to have an option live in gratitude and feel like you live life abundantly and get after those dreams. Wait is time to scale back. Make life simpler ad  dreams attainable. This is how we manifest our Farmacy.

Now plant you a few tomato plants and let’s move from knives to forks.

Many Blessings,

Callie Broussard-Wheeler

Plans and The New Moon.

  Good Morning!

 The birds are singing and it is a glorious day.                           

  A very smart man once said that life was what happened to you while you were making plans. Well, he was wrong. On this day the day of the first Taurus Moon the plans you make today will be the plans that full fill themselves in time. There is always a catch is there not. The catch being you have to let go of your old baggage. I bet if your like me, everyone and everything except those special few have been bringing up feelings and negative energy like never before in the past few weeks. That was the world aligning itself. Those feelings were not real they were feelings you should feel in order for you to be able to identify then allow the release of the past baggage. How beautiful and healing. So, let go of the past and set the intentions for the future. I know this post is a bit ethereal. But just imagine if you could actually write out what you wanted and the date and work like never before knowing it would come true. That would be magic. Oh, no my friend that would be manifesting you own destiny. We here at Basic Missions believe in manifesting each moment.

I may have told you this I may not. But when I was very sick and the Col. was just home from Iraq I had to stay in the bed a year. Well, I took a set of permanent makers Sharpies in the wonderful bright colors and on that blank white apartment wall of ours in front of our bed I wrote all the things we would do and places we would go, dates we would buy our home with cash and new cars. I even wrote quotes that inspired me taped photos. I think although the office manager loved the idea and the wall. I would  bet it can still be seen through the kiltz paint. But that wall pulled me through. It pushed me to build Basic. Contact the people I admired and work with them in some way or gleen some insight from them. I never dreamed that six years later I would be running two multi-international companies and would be my own brand. I never dreamed that the people I hired like me with vision and determination would go from bed bound to bed famous. They have written their own books, changed the world in their own way and opened their on non-profit.

So life is what you dream it to be daily. I am starting this day far to early. It is still dark her on the other side of the world. Duncan’s breathing is lulling me back to bed for a last cuddle of the day. The yoga mat is calling and I need a cup of Chai but I am happy. I have set my new intentions for the new year I hope you set yours. If you believe in absolutely nothing try this. Stephen Hawking and other great minds of our time believe we create our own reality. If that is the case and I believe it is then begin to make your outer reality match your inner reality. Life is to short to waste your life doing something you hate. If you are sick and healing spend twenty minutes a day in your well life. Imagine, taste and feel the new life. Feel it out walk through the house, taste the ocean on your lips, enjoy and plan for things you want and need. What you want to give away and what you want to keep and start spring cleaning your life and your brain and emotions.  And here is the best part one day you will notice that: day by day God will bring it to you. My friend Liz Gilbert of Eat, Love, Pray fame  is famous for saying God doesn’t want a willy nilly prayer or commitment he plays with his cards all in and asks you to do the same to anty up and see what the universe will bring you. There is a law of the universe called the law of attraction and you can see it all around you. What you put out and ask for you receive. So take a risk make a dream. Live like you have a personal assistant making your schedule and it will happen. God is specific. Help me Help me….. is boring. Help me get food or make my money stretch and I can show you a hundred examples of God sending just what was needed. He also likes the dare devil thinkers I want to run a international business I don’t care if I a bed bound, Okay hit it. The opportunity arises. As they say be careful what you ask for you will get it.

Many Blessings. I am writing my next five years worth of intentions today. Well done you for doing yours.

How are Things Down on the Farm?

Good Morning Glories,

I hope you are enjoying your day. I am down on the Farmacy with the Col. and we are going to take this reboot a little differently. Instead of telling you all the magical things you can eat and I will do that, we are going to focus on why you shouldn’t eat the things that impact your health and how.

Milk it does a body good? Got Milk? Have you heard those billion dollar slogans. Oh, to be the advertiser who brought those lovlies into being. We would be ankle deep in green both for juicing and spending. Wheeee! Happy Dance! But Got Mucus? Doesn’t sound as appealing but that is what they should say. Because if you are drinking milk, I would wager you have asthma, allergies, irritable bowel and loads of slimy mucus causing issues. Also milk contains casein and casein causes inflammation within a body which is just good old fashioned pain for most of us. So the million dollar question is how to we stop the milk. First let’s look at it this way. Milk is meant to bring a baby calf not a baby human from  a one hundred and fifty pound weakling to a six hundred pound steer. So think that cellulite it hereditary. Nope it is caused from excess fat stores. If that doesn’t scare this health centered bikini body country then this should. Mother’s milk that a human being makes is only good and necessary for a baby until milk teeth appear. Because otherwise the calorie count would be far to high to feed a child and keep them from becoming obese that is why weaning starts when the baby begins to show signs of needing more sustenance. Be that at two months or six depending on the child. My Mother started my nephew on rice cereal about three weeks after coming home. He was hungry my sister breast fed but he needed more food. She was wise to throw conventional wisdom out the door and do what felt right. So, dairy in the USA is a huge food group: cheeses, milk, ice cream and sauces and on the side in an ice cold state as ice cream the beloved snack. The question beckons how to we do away with this disease maker. All through this conversation I will list diseases that milk feeds cancer for one, lactose and any thing with tose on the end is SUGAR. No, no, nay, nay. Sugar is gasoline to the fire that is cancer and take it from a cancer patient nothing taste as good as cold milk when your in chemo or ice cream shakes I ate gallons of shakes. Oh the fear that sets me in now.

Nothing is going to give you the taste of milk but: if I can axe the Moo juice anyone can. I could drink a gallon of milk in two days alone and for a small woman that is a lot of milk. Almond milk is my milk of choice although I doctor it with a little sweetener and a little vanilla. Rice milk is fabulous and coconut milk is very good but sweet… two sweet although that is from the natural nut not sugar so you can enjoy. All the above are thinner and the consistency change is hard. I began with my almond milk on ice. Then worked to having a glass before bed or with my granola. I can tell you I use to crave milk. I learned that craving vast quantities of milk is a symptom of a food allergy and is not healthy. As I moved off the milk my body and my bowels thanked me. I like most type A cancer folks are all those negative things my religion teaches us to overcome. Ego meaning I had ulcers, irritable bowel and migraines from searching for perfection. I love that now it is all gone. Praise be.

How do you cook when you need milk? Well I use subs. I use almond milk and an unfertilized organic range fed egg which in our house is worth gold. My vet raises chickens without a rooster in the yard so I am not compelled not to eat animal product in this one case but we have an egg rarely. So you can add a whipped egg to a cooled sauce and enrich it or you can make a sauce from the products juices with a small bit of juice and water and a reduction process you can find in any good cook book. I am not teaching you to cook this month. Next month will come cooking lessons for those who are wannabe vegans and cannot imagine a meal without meat. You will never miss it.

So I ask you to research all you can on milk this day. I want you to really get how ugly this food is. It is a major food group for so many with children and vegan children do not run around all day with runny noses and excess mucus or the runs as my dad would say. Because the mucus content is more controlled. I know a lot of mothers who would love that. And if you have a baby who’s bowels are in trouble now is the best time to control them. Doctors give harmful laxatives and then fiber for the day and it is miserable and this one small change may just change your child and wouldn’t that be a gift. Children are resilient they bounce so try and I hope it helps. I have seen removing this one food group from a diet convince people to go vegetarian or vegan. They loved the results and the way they felt. Now play cow and teach about mooing and cobbling grass and double guts to your children then fill them with food that is healthy and from the Farmacy that will set up happy eating habits all life long.

Now for the facts on milk:

A.) you cannot absorb the calcium in milk. It is not made for our body

B.) there is more vitamin d and calcium in broccoli and our body was made to absorb that.

C.) Sugar is bad for you and the milk lobby is huge

D.) Milk does not ward off osteoporosis

E.) We were never meant to drink pasteurized milk it is a dead food with no benefit for the body. Human milk has life colostrum and vitamins. Pasteurized milk does not raw milk would have more value but people are to scared of it. Almond,Rice or other alternatives strengthen bones and help make you healthy.

F.) A build up of milk products increases asthma, IBS, Constipation and mucus and ulcers.

Let’s reprogram ourselves to think healthy.Oh, and while I am shocking you google fluoride after milk. We cannot absorb it. The whole idea is very unhealthy they tell us not to swallow tooth paste because fluoride is bad for you then put it in the water supply. We need to begin to question our lives. WHY????? Now go google milk and after you get past the milk lobby and even if your Republican gasp… hahah joke.. Daily Kos has a wonderful article on Milk or Myth. Go for it enrich yourself and never stop learning or take a persons word for it. Study. Hugs Loves.

 

Blessings and Peace,

Pharmacy or Farmacy???? You Choose.

Well, I woke this morning in Dubai and realized Monday hadn’t happened yet and hurrah for time changes I was not late. Ha, wrong. Sorry kids I have been sick. Lovely, but true. So, we are here now a day late and ready to understand why we must make these changes. When I first began teaching I realized that we must have change today!!! Now!! It was important!!! And although my Taurus brain can make it’s stubborn mind up because someone tells me “Not Possible” by God I will show them they are wrong. And I did for ten years. However lately I am of the mind that gentle change is better. Here are my thoughts.

When we change we begin to adapt to life in a different way. We think differently and act or react differently. When we become mindful of a behavior that needs changing and put that behavior out in the future we have made a mistake. Change begins one cell at a time and it must begin today. Even if all you do to ensure a better eating habit is read this blog and search some of the past eating reboots. You have begun. If we dangle change in the future it seems our road map never takes us there. Ever. We get busy and run from the change we seek instead of taking hold of it now mentally if nothing else and letting it work on you not you work on it. If you can see yourself achieving anything it has already happened you just must go through the steps to reach your vision. For the religious among you ask and you shall receive. What you speak you have.

Now, when we begin a cleanse or a time of purifying or detoxing our bodies we can do it slow. In the past we have beautiful cleanses that are not harsh and are 21 or 30 days. Not this time this time I am going to ask you to make one change a week you stick with. The first change is up the amount of water you drink the other is cut the amount of meat. This is easy. Have one meatless meal a week. or meatless day depending on what you can sustain. We are going for good, better, or best here. Let’s make changes that stick. Habits are ideas that stick with you long after you have out lived their usefulness. I can tell you for years on this vegan diet I have one cup of coffee. Each morning it sit gets cold and I am wasting money. I have just not been able to give up coffee. It really isn’t giving me my morning buzz if I am not drinking it so tomorrow no coffee. I would save a fortune on that one cup of coffee. So little things like the dairy I don’t drink anymore. I put half in half in the coffee and it is gross. That is $1.98 a week, coffee Community Dark Roast with Chicory $5.99, and then sugar the demon $2.99 a bag. Now most of these things are obsolete in my diet the coffee is like a pacifier and it is time to jump to the dump and get rid of it. Drink hot chai or green tea. Enough. So we are talking slow.

So why did I name this blog Pharmacy to Farmacy. Here is the trick tricksee. If you eat right, move, and drink water and green juices you will use less of what comes from CVS and more of what God gave us to keep us healthy. I saw a horrible meme the other day on the internet that had children in Japan eating rice and fish and children in America (USA) not all of North American eating McDonalds and it said as a caption get this have this……..You can only imagine the Japanese children were fit and healthy and our children obese and pale. It is sad. So lets move into our farmers markets and eat whole foods and you can afford it. If you can’t go buy a market open only on the weekends and ask for what they will give away on the end of Sunday and don’t miss a day. You may get a little tired of picking up more food than you can eat in a year but freeze it, juice it or put it up. Some will be ruined most will not. And share the blessing. Or have a few friends go to the farmers distributors and buy in bulk at wholesale and get all you need for very little. Now let’s stay out of the Pharmacy and work on health. True lasting health. And while we are making the change in thought today add some movement to that little wagon of yours. You can do it. If you just start walking to the post box and back.

We will talk more on this tomorrow so keep in touch for some wonderful recipe’s and a new way of feeling fabulous. If you would like to take our class Pharmacy to Farmacy please contact me here and I will happily add you to the skype class that begins June first we are just finishing up a six week course and it has been eye opening. Each six week course is $300.00 with supplies included and even exercise tapes. Much love and blessings.

Peace and Veggies.

Happy Christmas This is the First Sunday of Advent Ready for the Lesson?

Hello Loves,

I love Christmas because of all the miracles that made the birth of Christ possible and the beginning of a new spiritual reign happen. As is often the case I return to giving you advent lessons here just to take the sting out of cancer and realize that although we are all consumed with our lives now. That LIFE  does not end. We are part of a Universal thought of God and although we move on to another plane we never END. It is very important to me this year more than most to meld the religions in my head and write an advent lesson that makes you think of something new. We have lost so many friends and family this year. We have spent the entire year off work and touring and not thinking of anything but giving our parents both sets the best of their golden years. Although Papa Ray has left us and my Dad is fighting  that battle we may win! However whether we can see our family members or they have passed on we are all together in the body of GOD. And the Universe which we are apart are all here readying for the Christian birth of Jesus! With him comes the eternal idea of hope and the eternal idea of LOVE. His final command love one another as I have loved you. Do unto others as you would have them do unto you. So if you are living life you face this command daily. This WONDER is  base of all religions. So being the Buddhist, Catholic, Jewish,Everything that  I am; I know that there is something guiding my daily life and my call here. I hope to tune you in to that beautiful spirit that IS!

Onto the Lesson:

I always begin my Christmas lessons with Joseph. Joseph was an amazing man. Can you imagine being a man of his time, and believe me that time was rough. Given the laws of Hebrew texts if a woman or girl is impregnated before marriage they were stoned by the community. Now Mary was the daughter of a Rabbi and came from the line of David and a longggggggggggg line of Hebrews who stood on the law of God awaiting the King of Kings. The census of Rome tells us the year before Mary and Joseph married and registered to pay taxes that Joseph was single law abiding Jew who travel to the temple to register and pay tax. He would  work through all the Jewish holidays and requirements set out by the lawmakers or the Sanhedrin. Now if you are Jewish you know that this is serious business the law is the act of following G-D or Yahweh which was never to be written or spelled out of respect. So, here we have a man in his thirties which was really quite mature. Middle aged and a young girl of around 13 or 14 that he becomes enamored with. We don’t know if Joseph was a widower or had just not been in love but we know he fell in love with Mary. Now to say that Mary was religious would be the vastest understatement. She was orthodox and very very law abiding. Then one night the Angel of the Lord appeared to her and asked( this is important) asked her if she would bare the child of God. Without thinking long on the answer she said Thy will be done. So the Angel said the Lord of all things would come to her and she would be with child. Now, none of us knows what that means did the Lord appear as a man, did Mary wake a virgin and know with her fullest of being that she was with child. We will never know but the next census has Mary quite pregnant and married to Joseph.

Before this marriage took place someone had to come clean. Mary she had to tell her father and mother what had happened and she had to tell Joseph. Now their are a whole globe of people who have gotten pregnant before marriage. At times it was why the marriage took place and others in these days and believe it or not those why women aborted or went for an extended vacation and came back refreshed with a child put up for adoption, some have the baby today and raise it. We live in a different time. Then theses are the strongest of all women. As for the Mother of our Lord she knew her options she new the Angel had told her she would be alright but she also had to have the talk. The dreaded talk that could have cost her not only the respect of her family, her respect as a sane and lawful woman, and her life. She was also engaged and had to tell Joseph that she was pregnant by GOD. Now imagine that conversation. As with humanity Joseph had to take a minute he didn’t immediately support or condemn her he just needed to think. That night an Angel visited Joseph and he came around to the idea. I have a feeling men being men he had doubt. Yeah right an angel, a dream, and a pregnant fiance. Who’s was the child. I imagine the good hearted Joseph walking through town wondering if one of his friends or Mary’s raped her or she willing had sex. Life is life he was a cultured and learned man. Not some rube to believe anything. Can you imagine yourself in such a place. Then with the most extreme act of faith he claimed Mary as his own and never said a word. This act being we all have free will was amazing. It was a miracle in itself. He allowed the birth of the GOD CHILD. Imagine if he had rejected the dream, knowing the scriptures as all Jewish men knew them he knew that this was prophesize but honestly could it be his family.Could he be the one. That would be akin to us having an angel come into our room and saying spread the word build another ark. And we calling CNN and trying to get the word out and the world motivated. Good Luck!

Many discount the miracle of the man called Joseph who would see Jesus through his birth to his youngest milestones and stand steadfastly by him in the though his teenage years paid for his bar mitzvah and then his introduction into society as the prophet. We know that Joseph did live long enough to see Jesus reveal himself as the son of God but he believed and held fast to the knowledge of who his son was. He was a wonderful husband and complied with all Mary’s wishes because if you notice where ever Jesus is heading so is his family. And when he announces himself at the Wedding of Canna we don’t hear of Joseph by this time he would have been an old man and frail. So I need to look up the records and the death date. The wonderful thing about history is Rome was a fully functioning city with an infrastructure so death, birth, and taxes were inevitable for all it’s citizens.

So how can we become a Joseph in our own right. We can meditate and put our support behind those that have found the word of God and is spreading it. No matter the denomination.. remember the word of God comes not in a shout but a whisper and we have prophets all around us we just have to notice that each person has a spark of God within them. Let the Spark Shine!

So would you love to learn more about Joseph you can do the” canned thing” and Google him or you can search the Vatican Library online and learn the census records and the stats only. Then run over to the New Testament and read all four stories of the meeting and marriage of Mary and birth of Jesus.No matter your religion Jesus is the son of God and he shows us all the potential that each of us. Joseph is a human; just a human being and his kindness and love are those that are inspired by God and completely filled with acts of random kindness and thoughts for those around them. He is truly the example of a human being that Jesus preaches. Do unto others. Do not point out the sins of your brother without sweeping your back door and always live out of kindness. So here is a thought lets get in touch with our religions of the world. It is more important that ever for us to understand that the battle between the Jews and the Muslims is a family feud that is time for us to stop fighting all of us and take a page out of Joseph’s book and be kind.

Now stretch yourself during this holiday season visit a church, a synagogue and a mosque and do unto others. Listen with an open heart the way Joseph did and be kind. Open yourself to the joy of the season and stop fighting over the materialism and the junk that surrounds this holidays and notice the miracles in the Christ story. While you at it why not notice the miracles in your life. Here at Basic Missions we are all about Miracles they happen daily and they give us hope for tomorrow. God’s little sticky note of love is the smallest of miracle. A kind smile, and opened door, a returned purse or a gift of more. And remember those who count the miracles in their life often have less than others so we the ones who are lucky, should make sure one miracle happens for a family each day of the year that might not happen. Here are three chances for you to change a life.

My fabulous life coach included her big sis is getting ready to accept a miracle of a liver transplant but she has to have the money for the drugs that will allow her not to reject the liver and they are not covered by her insurance. Write me at my personal email or text me 251-644-2834  or Callie4now@gmail.com and we can take your donation over the phone. Note every dime collected for Tammi goes to Tammi as in all things at Basic.

BasicMissions: We are a non-profit organization that helps families with cancer and helping them solve bills and cover debt or problems associated with cancer. We also teach people to reboot their lives after cancer. Our main goal is to make sure healing is a knowledgeable and stress free as possible so donate. Same number and address.

You can also send to our address phone cards or prepaid cards for Amazon.com for Soldiers serving overseas. Since Duncan is a retired Black Ops Col. we support the troops here. So let’s allow them to realize we are there for them just as they stand on the wall against our enemies in good times and bad. And we will send them to Soldiers stationed in Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan. Make a call home their Christmas wish a reality. We also collect track phones loaded with an hour for the soldiers. Send on call or email for address.

Enjoy the Advent thoughts and Many Blessings.

Frustration, Family and Fucking Cancer!!!

Hello Sunflowers,

Sorry about the expletive but this has been the never ending day. Here at Basic Missions we fight cancer daily. I am very blessed to be in touch with some of the best oncologist on the planet from hospitals such as Dana Farber to Johns Hopkins to The Oasis and The University of Mexico Medical Center. I cannot tell you how this contact has helped me through my diagnosis and fight of my own cancer and that  now of my father’s. It is amazing how narrow minded and scared many oncologists are to admit that although we are rounding the corner in a tight fight that things just may have turned the tide and my father may be okay.  Now these are his oncologists who haven’t seen him for months. And I am so sick of It. Worse still my family is in medicine. Although, I am not a medical doctor I have a PHD in Human Anatomy /Physiology and Cytology ( the study of blood disease and how it works) and Medical Mission (social work basically) Management. It has been a long road but facts are always facts. Today my anger is just that anger. I am frustrated at the whole system of medicine that allows a nurse or doctor who may or may not have been familiar with your case to make off the wall statements that can send your family into nerves from hell. I was lucky enough to see the dreaded cancer cells sloughing off my dad today and help to remove the string of onc cells identified by their lack of mitochondria in the cell wall structure remove them  from the nephrology bags. ( a healthy cellular system has mitochondria within the cellular structure of  fluid around the normal cells that kill off and feed as all parasites do on unhealthy cellular development. When a good cellular environment turns toxic the mitochondria die off and tumors begin or cancer cells invade a healthy organ or lymph node. Easy to understand right!! Well we removed weak wall mucus membrane celluar structure of dead cancer cells. And that is wonderful news.) Try explaining this to a negative nurse or doctor…………..ugggggg……..!

But then it was a frustrating day. We have another day of surgery and God willing the stints will be put in soon and dad will have those bags removed. However it makes me wary of the group working here in Mayberry. I have to get my own scans as it is that time of year and with my cancer being at a halted stage four, my dad is not stage three, and this group has him buried.What will they do with me, set me up on a plan of poison and pleas……..No way.  So, heavens what a  pep talk I will get for not treating, radiating or chemo-ing anything to death it would have be great fun. Consequently, I plan to fire the group and go on to the normal doc and get the scans ordered.

At this point in my life I have a book about to drop have been published worldwide, and am not about to start a pissing contest with a negative doctor when I have held my cancer at bay for almost eight years. Enough of the frustration. I also have a plea and I am sorry for being so personal. But I need the families to hear this it is my calling !!!!!

NEVER EVER TAKE YOUR FAMILY MEMEBER AND ASSUME THAT GOD IS FINISHED WITH HIS or HER LIFE UNTIL HE OR SHE IS GONE. GOD AND AN ARRAY OF BEAUTIFUL SOULS WHO HAVEN’T LOST THEIR PERVERBIAL MINDS OVER A FEW ONC CELLS CAN SAVE YOUR LIFE AND TUNE YOU IN TO THE POSSIBITILTY OF LIFE WITH CANCER AS A CHRONIC ILLNESS LIKE DIABETES. SO IF YOU ARE STILL WANTING TO FIGHT BE IT WITH TRADITIONAL MEDS OR HOLISTIC MEDICINE OR A MIX DO IT. LIVE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT A CARTON OF MILK WITH AN EXPERATION DATE STAMPED ON IT AND NO DOCTOR OR NURSE CAN TAKE YOUR HOPE. NO FAMILY MEMBER IN THE BUSINESS OF MEDICINE OR ANY OTHER THE BUSINESS OF CAN EITHER. IT IS YOUR CHOICE. I HAVE HAD PATIENTS WITH STAGE FOUR CANCER WHO WOULD OUTLIVE THOSE WITH STAGE ONE BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T BOW DOWN TO THE DISEASE. THEY WANTED THE DAY AND LIVED IT AND ONE DAY LED INTO ANOTHER UNTIL LIKE ME YEARS HAD PASSED. NOT ALL DAYS ARE EASY BUT THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL.NOW GRANTED WE WILL ALL PASS FROM THIS EARTH WE ARE BORN DYING. BUT THE BUSINESS OF GOD SHOULD BE LEFT TO GOD AND THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN POSSIBILITIES SHOULD STRIVE FOR THEM.. END OF SERMON.

If you still have hope in your heart and a will to  begin today to work with doctors and nurses that also want you to be cautious but optimistic do so. Never spend a day in your life with negativity. Life is to short and that goes for all major illness. If you have a zest to live and a will you may just outlive us all and Baisc Missions will be here to serve you as needed.

I have to throw in I am sorry for being away so long and not having the ability to post as often. I have three parents in need right now and at times no matter the job or the platform you must come off tour and be with your family so that is what I am doing. However I have not abdicated the job. The website is being rebuilt and I am still here at Basic plugging away working for my patients and clients. So, if you need us please call. We have a world wide office base so from where ever you are: we have people working there for you. I wish you the very best of  the holiday season and the best of health. I plan to enjoy my life every minute and not listen to the nay sayers or the unbelievers as with the apostles that followed Jesus.  I have seen the truth lived it and I am a walking testimony that stage four can be overcome and held at bay until God is done with me I will be right here fighting for you, my Dad, and anyone who asks. I will let you know when it turns because that will be a different set of problems to explore and reboots to write. I love you all. Thank you.

Much love and Positivity.

Hey Guys Sorry About the Break. Sometimes things don’t workout so time for a Reboot!

Hey Dear Ones,

I hope you have had a wonderful month. Knowing this month is almost over and is a lovely thought for most of you I on the other hand am mad, crazed, I am frankenhealer… haha. We had made a new resolution to go all video all the time we had film crews and workers working day and night to get the first month in the can. And guess what that is where it is staying. My website is obviously not able to hold as much information as it holds and obtain a full libray of video so behind the scenes are little sprites working daily to build a new Basic that will support all the video we can throw at it. So what is a forlorn and agitated nutritionista and full time wellness warrior suppose to do but get to work. Helping you to reboot and get that booty moving on the healing highway.

I want to take some spare time and talk to you about a few things. My life coach and friend Terri Cole has a sister Tammy who is getting ready to heal her life by taking a large leap of faith and having a liver transplant if Terri is a match this would mean a lot of huge changes in each life. It would also mean major healing time for Tammy who is battling and winning with Liver Cancer.

Important!

[/important] SO HERE IS THE DILL PICKLE!!!!! WE NEED TO THROW SOME BASIC MISSIONS MONEY, HELP, WALKS AND MOVING BEHIND HER REBOOT OF LIFE. THE WORLD IS A COMMUNITY AND WE CANNOT DO THINGS ALONE. SO LET’S GET THE TAMMY STARTED!

Here is my plan I am going to send all you fabulous folks a newsletter in the snail mail this week. And we are going to set up Majors to make some sort of activity to raise money for Tammy and her family. You see when you get a transplant mean insurance companies don’t pay for drugs to keep you from rejecting for the rest of your life so we need to put a dent into that and the cost of being out of work until life gets back on the normal path. Tammy needs are help so here are some ideas. Bake Sales, Hot Chocolate Booths for the kiddies, Walks, and just plain donations mailed here to BasicMissions or phoned in we can take your donation over the phone to help save Tammy’s life and help her rest easier knowing her kids and her meds will be okay during this healing break. If you have been on a healing journey then you know this is now easy cause. Now in the mean time follow the link to Grace Quantocks website and sign up for the Sick Chic to Trail Blazer conference where all procedes go for Tammy.  Let’s pay our blessings forward. Terri has been a major influence in my life. Honestly I was most likely the worst coachee she ever had but she was the best coach and her words and home work got through my thick Taurus skull and allowed me to learn so much in life and I am betting a lot of that came from having a fabulous older sister life Tammy. Who teaches you all you need to know as a kid. How to shave your legs, put on makeup, try out for pep squad. And help you sneak back into the house sober you up and get you settled so you behind doesn’t land in a swing with Mom and Pop the first time you go to a party and make a mistake and have one to many. Sisters have a bond like know other. I have a sister who I would be crushed if she were ill, I have sisters that in a cruel world were born around the world from me and I hurt when they hurt and we pray one another to sleep. Then I have about fifty sisters who I have gone through cancer with and we keep on holding each other up and it has been about ten years now. So sisters especially the ones your Momma gave you are important. So how can you get involved. Call me. Leave me a message this time your calling me and getting me not the Basic Mission Machine and we are going to help Tammy. 251-644-2834. We can do this.

Now I have a favor. Head on over to Facebook that little entity lol and befriend my public site my book is soon to be out in hard back and I need some friend people. Go to Callie Broussard-Wheeler the official page it has veggies on it. And Like it and post to ask your friends to like it we are on a course to make the best sellers list.

Okay Go we have mountains to move for our sister.

Callie Broussard-Wheeler

October!!!! Fall into a New Pattern!!

                     As you red hot chili pepper’s know I live in Alabama, Lower Alabama the other L.A. ha. Maybe one of the last parts of Alabama to see fall. However I am here to note for all time that I just saw the first leave fall from my neighbours sweet-gum tree, the crab apples are all over our trees and the bulbs are in my crisper getting ready to be forced for the holiday. And the smallest miracle yet is that the Christmas Cactus lives!!!!! I had this idea after going to a ladies brunch featuring Martha Stewart where she spoke of her mother having a Christmas Cactus for years and years. Well, I decided that I had to do that bring that Cactus from one blooming season to the next safely. Then the puppies came last year and ate the 8 year old cactus. So “newbie” is now heading to the dark of the closet for a month then out into the sun so that it will bloom in joy for the holidays.

I adore fall. I was married in the fall, and it is the most gorgeous time of year for a wedding or anniversary!  Fall signifies for me the beginning of the fallow time. A time of rest for the up coming year. In the past farmers planted a small winter garden and allowed the soil to rest, we also come into a time of rest.

Although the season ends with celebrations in many ways Thanksgiving is my favourite holiday. I have met some of my best friends on Thanksgiving. And Duncan and I always make it an occasion. This year we have Momma Eloise with us so it will be that much more joyful. We have had a fabulous year. About a year ago now we began talking to Momma and Pappa about coming to live here. I had hoped we would have the holidays with them both but God had other plans. So we take our little band of three and Ms. Pants. Child of Saatchi my folks and family and spring into action. it is time to make cookies and share the love of canned fruits and jams handmade all year with love and care with loved ones. Nothing says love like a homemade gift. This week we make red pepper jelly, tamales, and marmalade for a few unsuspecting souls. Then we begin again next week. I am going to snatch Grandma Dean’s fabulous coconut crisp reciepe and make a few batches just to devour then a few to share. They are vegan and literally the best cookies I have ever had along with Welsh Cakes Grace makes that will also be in the baskets this year. Divine. Like a Scone and a Biscuit but tiny and cooked openly on a griddle. Addictive and delicious. Grace is amazing when it comes to unexpected cooking ideas she has never had meat and has been vegan vegan for years so I learn from her daily in all ways. It is great to have a friend like that. Muah!!! Kisses Grace and Linus we adore you and Grandma Dean and Fran and Samuel and all I am leaving out…

I had nothing really to write to you about today. Torrorrow Basic goes all Video and Blog. Once maybe twice a week you will get a cooking lesson here and if you like what you see sign up for the Healing Bites Lessons that accompany my book. You won’t forget it and it will change your life.

Funny I am having a lot of first today I just saw the rain actually roll in. It was first on the river, than in my neighbours yard then in ours. The red barn turned maroon and the rain is falling hard now. I haven’t seen that since I left Louisiana and that was a long time ago.

So life is what we make it and this weekend has been all about work and rest. Duncan needed to take some very personal down time and I needed to get my booty on film for you guys. You will have to forgive the hair. I will soon look like myself again when Jason washes me back to my natural state until then I am like fall my colours are changing.

Here are some websites I think you may enjoy on a rainy Sunday.

GraceQuantock.com she is our amazing Grace and she has her own thing so go support it.

Healing Boxes.com Grace’s and Linus run a non-profit that sends boxes of love to your family members and filled with love and light. And treats. She even packs them with popcorn that if I was an honest person I would tell you is as delicious as the treats in the box… but I am not saying I snacked on the packing materials no way… lol…………

HealingTrips.com My dear friend Iffat has a lovely food and information page she is an amazing mother and writer but she makes the most beautiful food without an ounce of sweat it is amazing.

Kriscarr.com is new and she is also on a cooking binge but there is plenty of room for all of us so go buy and check out what use to be my stomping grounds of CrazySexyCancer. It is fabulous.

Anthony Anderson and Alexander Junger have the Clean program but Anthony the Model we all love has a permaculture site replant paradise. Google it and run by it is worth learning to plant a garden in your backyard that could reseed the earth and feed us as well. He is a brilliant man and has a lot of good information.

If you aren’t studying Homer with Grace and some of the gals I love you are missing out it is offered by Courseca and is brilliant. I remember having to do the entire Iliad and Odyssey to graduate in Oct. And head to college early it was amazing here I am studying it all over again and loving it!!! So take a class and give your mind some food.

Now… life is what we make it. So think about yours. Do you have diabetes, high stress, a tummy bulge well begin with us on Monday and help heal everything from cancer to chronic illness. These lessons on Basic will be free for a while ;) so come join me. We have some great guest and some delightful old friends and new ones joining us. Now tomorrow is the first airing so stay with me. I have only been filmed by pro’s and Duncan and I are on this one ourselves but it is time to take learning to you. We will start life coaching all video in January so get ready to be shaken, rattled and rolled until your life is what you want it to be.

Alright. Enjoy. I just needed to say hi!!!! The post will be up sometimes tomorrow so bare with us.. My new digs, office, computer and other are giving me a fit.  But all good things come to those who wait and prepare.

I love you all. Blessings.

Callie Broussard-Wheeler
