Allergies, Immune System and Beyond

Hi, I am Sue Mallett the allergy specialist at Revive. I am delighted to have the opportunity to come and talk to you about my discipline, the amazing world of NAET and how it can help us all. I will be joined by my daughter Becky Mallett who is the reason Revive exists at all and our dear friend Jane Watson who came as a patient 12 years ago. A guest appearance is also being made by Isla Watson, Jane’s adorable rescue West Highland Terrier who has received treatments. We hope to be able give you a good overview of what Revive is all about, demonstrate how it works for both humans and animals and give you an independent testimony. We will also be able to take questions and hopefully provide answers!!

To give you a little insight…..As a NAET practitioner I specialise in a holistic approach to health and wellness. Mental health, fatigue, chronic illness, gut issues and a plethora of other symptoms can be caused by both known and unknown allergies compromising the immune system. These can be obvious allergens, as well as subtler environmental factors supressing the body, often without conscious awareness. I work with the patient to alleviate/clear these issues and to optimise their immune system, thus restoring good health. 

NAET uses Nambudripad’s Allergy Elimination Technique, a process which was developed in the USA by Dr Devi Nambudripad in 1983. NAET is now practiced all over the world by qualified practitioners, including over 100 in the UK and 12,000 worldwide. NAET uses a specific technique combining primarily oriental medical and kinesiology principles. This technique is natural, drug free, painless and non-invasive. It can be used safely on anyone, from a newborn baby to an elderly person, including the very sick and frail and also those with a compromised immune system such as those undergoing cancer treatments. As well as all our friends in the animal kingdom. NAET’s results are astounding, having the ability to fully eradicate certain allergies and boost the immune system more generally.

We look forward to meeting you all and sharing the wonderful discipline that can help us all.

Sue, Becky, Jane and Isla :) x

Shap Beck Stone Circle

This site was only discovered in 1986 and as far as we know it has not been visited by Westmorland Dowsers.  There is a lot more to discover on the site than first meets the eye so it should be quite a challenging day.

Information about the Long Meg and her Daughters site.

The stone circle is considered to be the third largest in England after Avebury and Stanton Drew.

Classed as a large, irregular oval stone circle and one of only 45 known in England measuring 350 feet on the long axis 

Possibly 70 stones originally - 59 stones today -  27 upright stones.

Long Meg is 12 feet high with the four corners facing the points of the compass.

Stands 80 feet south west of the circle.  Made of local red sandstone? from the river Eden 2 miles away. 

Long Meg is decorated with cup and ring marks as well as other designs including spirals, concentric circles, ovoids and curved lines.

Daughters made up of greenstone, limestone and a granite (rhyolite )glacial erratics according to Gary Biltcliffe – The Spine of Albion.  Late Neolithic/ Early Bronze age (c.2400 – 1000BC)

The circle may have been constructed as a meeting place for religious ritual or burials . Could it have been used to mark important solar or lunar events such as sunrise / sunset at midsummer or midwinter.  Maybe it marked the passing of the seasons – like a calendar.  Long Meg does align to the midwinter sunset when viewed from the centre of the circle.  Over the years it was probably used for a variety of things.

Gary Biltcliffe suggests that the Elen energy line enters the site through the south – facing edge of Long Meg then passes through the circle between the portal stones at the south west entrance to the centre, following the shadow of the mid- winter solstice. At this point, Elen crosses 2 other energy currents – one male, the other female. As Elen crosses a large recumbent stone at the northeast quadrant, she changes path to the north, passing into an area which aerial photography shows as the site of a large ditched enclosure or henge.

The edge of the prehistoric enclosure touches the stone circle to the north where it flattens to form an oval. It is thought that the enclosure pre dates the circle and influenced the shape.  Probably Bronze age (c2000 – 00BC).                        

The cursus enters the site in the south west corner and runs on either side of Long Meg.  The function is unknown but they are presumed to be ritual/ ceremonial monuments of the middle and late Neolithic (3300-2500BC).

Aerial photographs suggest that there is an associated cursus (linear earthwork) and a prehistoric enclosure on this site too.  Westmorland Dowsers can test their skills in finding these ancient structures. There is plenty of scope to ask questions to understand more about the history of the area.

First Meeting in 2024

Zoom meeting on Saturday 13th January 2024 at 10:30am

Nigel Twinn

An illustrated talk 'Scillonia and Beyond'  - Dowsing on the Scilly Isles and beyond.   

Zoom meeting starting at 10.30am

Zoom link will be sent to Members in the week prior to the event 

Saturday 13th January             

Nigel Twinn, the well-known dowser and dowsing author from Devon, will giving an illustrated talk

'Scillonia and Beyond'  - Dowsing on the Scilly Isles and beyond.   

Zoom meeting starting at 10.30am

Nigel, the well-known dowser and author from Devon, will be talking about his dowsing experiences in 'Scillonia and Beyond'.  

Nigel says, "The Isles of Scilly are further from Lands End than Dover is from Calais. The IoS have a different feel - sharper, clearer, less trawled over. As such, the energies there feel subtly crisper and certainly different. There are many parallels with other Celtic locations, notably in Brittany - and perhaps more so there than with the English/Cornish mainland.

Video and photography permissions

In presentations at Westmorland Dowsers, video and photography permissions are required from both WD committee and the invited speaker.  This approach aims to respect the privacy of attendees who may not wish to be recorded.

The focus on filming the presentation allows for documentation, sharing, or promotional purposes. This is designed to maintain a respectful and comfortable environment for all participants.
