Ariel's House
About a year ago I discovered, quite by accident, that I am able to channel a beautiful angel named Ariel. Ariel is a known healer, and her energy is amazing. Through my work, I am learning that diseases are manifestations of our thinking. What I do is work with you to determine what your illness or injury may be, and channel the healing energy of Ariel to assist in your recovery. In most cases, true healing will not occur until the negative thoughts and feelings responsible for the illness are addressed. The process involves a phone call to me, to let me know what is going on with you. After we talk for a few minutes, I will spend some time channeling with Ariel and will work on your issue. This will usually occur within 24 hours of your call. Once I have completed this work, I will call you back and let you know what I learned. Sometimes people are a little sore the next day and others have said they can feel Ariel working in their bodies. To get started, you just need to call me. I can be reached at (651) 407-1715.

The Master's Miracle -- Restore Your Body By Eliminating Toxins
Are diseases (toxins) plaguing your life? Are you longing to lose weight and have more energy? The Master's Miracle natural, toxin-free soaps cleanse the body internally and externally. Our bodies contain many toxins, chemicals, parasites, fungus, yeast and bacteria that, if not cleaned from our systems, tend to develop into major illnesses. Most people use soaps that contain animal fats, causing the pores of our skin to clog, therefore trapping chemicals and toxins in the body. Our internal cleansing system, which raises the body's pH, creates an atmosphere in which these organisms can not survive. Once the body's pH is optimized, the blood carries more oxygen allowing one to think more clearly and have more energy. As toxins are removed and pH levels optimized, the body is able to heal itself. The process is simple: (1) Shower and bathe with The Master's Miracle soaps, (2) Drink the neutralizer, a mixture of natural minerals and organics (tastes like water), and (3) Topically, rub either the gel or lotion on the body for pain relief, skin conditions, headaches, burns, bites etc. The gel is wonderful for brushing one's teeth and controlling gum disease. People report Miracles! Call Mary Reid at toll-free 1 (800) 258-6989 for more information or to place an order.
