    Very nice, Kev! … We eat acorns, too! So far, we’ve only cold leached them after grinding them down into a fine flour. We then usually use the flour while still wet. We leach a batch at a time. Really cool to see you cold leach with a coarse grind so the acorns still have some shape to them. Thanks for sharing! …

    We eat black walnuts, too! It is pretty much as simple as cracking them, although they are a tough nut to crack! If you don’t already do a float test with your nuts, I’d recommend that step for sure. After dehulling them (wear your stained fingers with pride!) put them in a bucket of water. The bad nuts float and the good ones sink. Then dry out the good nuts in shallow boxes. The walnuts taste better after they cure, in our opinion. … Crack em with a hammer or we got a Grandpa’s Goody Getter nutcracker, which our little ones can use. … Then, depending on how you feel about it, you can eat em straight up or soak and dehydrate them to neutralize the phytic acid. … They make a good nut butter, too, and no extra oil is needed. … Lots of black walnuts this year in WI, too 😃

    Thanks for this discussion! I have a question related to this … We have been giving my son remedies for a barking cough he’s had for several days now. We got a cough & respiratory kit from Homeopathy for Mommies and in the handout that came with the kit it says for whooping cough: “for family who have not had it. Take: Drosera 6c night and morning.” … Would this not prove the remedy for the family members who aren’t coughing, though? Curious of this technique of giving a remedy before the symptoms manifest physically. Thanks for your thoughts!

    OK, … The Ley Line group is a subgroup of the Spirit Science group. To join the Ley Line group I had to go into the Spirit science group and then click on the “Subgroups” button, which then brought me to a page that showed me the two Spirit science subgroups (Ley Lines & Walter Russell), and the respective buttons to click to join those subgroups. … Question solved! Thanks!🙂

    I love Esther Joy! After meeting her through another support group almost 10 yrs ago when my son was born prematurely and my wife hospitalized with preeclampsia, I took one of her eyesight improvement classes, and loved it.

    And, Meir has an amazing story, too! A friend of mine was excited to tell me about him a couple years ago.

    That reminds me of a documentary film called, “Superhuman: The Invisible Made Visible”, by Caroline Cory. One section in the film shows some children and blind people learning to see with blindfolds on. It’s amazing! I was so inspired that I took Caroline’s course to see if I could do it, too, but I never figured it out, and I haven’t kept up the practice. There were a handful of classmates that started seeing through the blindfolds, though. So cool!

    So, now I see that there’s two types of eyesight improvement: one where the optometrist’s instruments agree with the amount of clarity you’re seeing, and one where they don’t. Jacob Liberman says that he experienced perfect eyesight after being in a deep meditation. His optometry instruments still told him that he was nearsighted, though. … On the other hand, people like Jake Steiner have reversed axial elongation of their physical eyeballs, and so the instrumentation will match what their seeing on the eye chart. … It’s interesting! … It’s almost like one way improves your “eyesight”, and the other way improves your “vision”. As Roberto Kaplan taught me, 90% of vision happens in your mind, and only 10% from your eyes … There’s also traditional osteopaths and an Alexander Technique guy (Peter Grunwald), that have helped people get clear eyesight again focusing on the whole body. When the body unwinds, then eyesight/vision can improve. I wonder which boat this technique falls into? I started trying out an osteopathic eyeglass Rx almost 2 yrs ago, but I haven’t seen any improvement yet.

    Oh, and my eyes stung with the urine/DMSO drops, too. The sting goes away fairly quickly. The ache I was experiencing was a whole other feeling that felt more in the back of the eye if I remember right. I may try it again sometime soon.

    Thanks! Good luck!

    Hi! There was a great discussion on this same topic in this same group that was started back in February by Elin, called “Bates Method for Eye Health”. Not that you need more tips than what you’ve got from your other group, but I just thought I’d let you know about that discussion thread, too. You’ll love it!

    Since you (and Hulda) have one eye acting up, you might try some of the eye-patching techniques that are out there. Dr. Roberto Kaplan has some good patching practices, as does Jake Steiner. I’m sure others do too. Just a thought!

    I had also tried urine eye drops & also DMSO/urine drops, but my eyes started aching after a week or two into it, so I paused on that.

    I’ve gotten my Rx reduced from about -4 diopters to about -2.75, but I have been at this for 20 years, so it’s been slow going for me. You can increase your eyesight faster, I’m sure. My key points are sungazing, light sensitivity improvement, wearing a reduced Rx (or no Rx), distance seeing and varying your vision, and osteooathic body work (or the best alternative). The only one of these I’ve done daily for 20 yrs is the reduced Rx glasses. What I feel has the most potential for fast improvement is adapting the eyes to taking in more quality light. Dr. Bates has a technique that I’d like to try with guidance.

    Thanks for sharing your links, too. They look great!

    We’ve been giving my son all the drops internally. Can I also apply the symbio-not drops directly to the open weeping sores?

    Thanks, Lisa! We started my son on Symbiopathic’s “symbi-not” (penicillium notatum) yesterday, which is an isopathic form of homeopathy. Got it from the AV product page. … Our kit from “Homeopathy for Mommies” has all the remedies you suggested, except for the combination narayani war mix. Would any of those be compatible or complementary with the Symbio-Not, do you know? Thanks so much! Much appreciated.

    Thank you so much, Dr. Barre! I had been looking for my bottles of isopathics, but hadn’t found them since moving to a new homestead two months ago. You inspired me to dig deeper, and I found them! And one of them is Symbio-Not!

    I’m still unsure how to best use the isopathics in general, though. Besides the descriptions on your website, I just use BioGeometry quality measurement to check to see if one of the isopathics increases one’s BG3 and personal wavelength first before taking any, and then measure again for how many drops. I also like to make sure the isopathic doesn’t need clearing itself & has BG3. … Seems to work well, but I’d love to learn more about them, especially best practices. … Thanks again!

    Interesting… I don’t see why a BG3 emitter wouldn’t work. I use BioGeometry, but I haven’t done any controlled experiments that show a difference in yields yet. My pendulum “quality measurements” tell me there’s a benefit to using BG still, though. … Do you practice/play with Biogeometry yourself? If you do, then you can just test it and observe for yourself. And perhaps most importantly, you can then fine tune the placement of your BG3 emitter (or other BG3 solution), which can make quite a significant difference. … Which BG3 emitter(s) are you using?

    Nice, Kev! … We have a nice grain mill for the acorn flour. After leaching, we strain out the water through an organic cotton sheet (no flour makes it through that) instead of a cheesecloth. … Hmmm, I guess the float test has some flaws. Thanks for sharing your experience floating the acorns.

    Room temperature is fine for curing the walnuts. Just don’t pile them too deep on each other. Shallow boxes, like the boxes that the grocery store gets their cases of strawberries and grapes in, work great. … Getting all the nut meats picked out after cracking still isn’t the easiest thing, but hopefully you’ll find your rhythm after not too long. … Some Amish by me prefer to resoak the nuts before cracking so the nut meats don’t crush as easy, but are more pliable and easier to remove from the shell without breaking. … Removing phytic acid doesn’t seem to change the flavor like removing tannins does. It just has to do with the digestibility, like you said with the almonds. … Yums yums!

    Thanks for those thoughts, Ari! … One ofs the reasons I’ve been drawn to Biogeometry (BG) techniques is because they focus their balancing solutions on the center, instead of on opposite polarities. With polarity balancing, the dosage needs to be just right & there’s the likelihood of interfering; but not so with centering it seems. And with BG, we center with “BG3”, which opens the door for divine order to fill in the space. We then are assisting to allow divine order to unfold, which could manifest in many different ways, depending on the situation, much less likely to cause interference.

    Center (BG3) balancing helps allow the body to heal itself following the divine process. In regards to the six stages homotoxicology chart that Barre uploaded here, it would most often result in the person down regulating from a higher to a lower stage in the direction of returning to the somatid endobiont original form.

    BG uses a set of specific pendulums to do what they call, “BG quality measurement”, rather than applied kinesiology, but it seems the more quality tools we have in our tool belts the better!

    Anyway, I just like make sure I’m adding the centering BG3 quality to any remedy I’m going to take or give to my family members. It’s just one more step to make the remedy that much more effective it seems! Just some thoughts!🙂

    Oh, yeah, I love using BG quality measurements. I definitely recommend it. I’ll try sending you a private message…

    Oh, and thanks for bringing up that a vegetarian diet is recommended with urine therapy. I have that book too, and that part caught my attention. I’m not vegetarian, but I’ve gone ahead with urine therapy anyway, just to see. I practice Biogeometry measuring techniques, and often my urine tests show me my urine isn’t needed to ingest (or, it doesn’t increase my personal wavelength or BG3). But, sometimes it does. … Something to ask in the urine therapy group, for sure. Thanks, Leigh-Anne!

    That’s such an awesome image just thinking about what that would be like. I love it!!! Lol! I’ll definitely keep that technique in my back pocket for when in need. Let us know, please, Leigh-Ann, when you try it and whether the initial sting of urine in the eyes fades away or if the sting lasts the entire 30 minutes.
