This week (UK) is Autism Awareness Week

#MondayMadness


I woke up this morning to a message saying:

“ Interesting thought. Your mind is wonderful - odd, but wonderful.”

 

This week (UK) is Autism Awareness Week


This week’s #MondayMadness slot today speaks to the the four ‘M’s of Malicious Malevolent, Machiavellian, Management 

I used to work for a public sector organisation and I was persecuted because of my autism. Like all employers, the public sector has a duty of care to their employees.
When I took out a grievance against a particularly malicious, malevolent machavavaillian manager, the report concluded that no documentary evidence of autism had been produced. A complete negation of the courage it took to share my ‘perceived’ disability in the first place.
I discovered that I was on the autistic scale when seeking educational help for my primary aged son with a parental ‘aha’ moment about my own childhood. These traits run in families.
It’s a poor reflection on an organisation responsible for public sector support  & education,  when they can’t treat people equitably, despite well meaning policies, because the people using the policies - and I use the word ‘using’ in a very specific way -display lack of understanding & lack compassion.
To conclude “…no evidence of autism supplied, when the very body investigating could have offered a test” Illustrates a willful lack of understanding & a lack of compassion 

If you are not ‘autistic’  you have the innate inability to empathise with those who are. That is not an excuse for treating people unfairly. It is an indicator of lack of compassion. 

As you know, I intensely dislike labelling people… because labels can be weaponised to divide people’s. The one caveat to my dislike of labelling is if those ‘labels’ are applied to action support…. to “embrace difference”. 
 
To conclude that “no evidence of autism was provided”
Was evidence of failure to embrace difference. 
Conscious willfull failure to embrace difference.

This week is autism awareness week.

I am applying my “odd but wonderful” mind this Monday to bring you a much deeper framework around my thoughts with these short clips of Gregg Braden talking to Alex Ferrari:

#ThursdayThoughts: Can you reverse and recover from fibromyalgia in 30 days?

The honest answer is it’s going to take longer than that It took me 6-9 months, with support.  But I know that if I could have taken a supported 1:1 month residential, with someone who was living proof that it could be done, I could have recovered in a lot less time. One of the reasons I was disabled by the condition for so long was because I confused symptom management with healing. Another was that I relied on pharmaceutical medication, which didn’t help, and oftentimes made my physiology worse (with complex side effects) Another was that, despite having experience as a spiritual & kinesiology healer, I didn’t recognise that there is a specific energy pattern to fibromyalgia that sustains the pain & fatigue caused by grief & trauma trapped in our etheric energy field. Another was that I didn’t understand the crucial role alkalising diet takes in reversing inflammation within the body. I still managed to achieve sustainable recovery and that’s why I’m launching a new...

#ThursdayThoughts: 3 things I learned (about time) thru experiencing a DNOTS

3 Things I learned about time, and how it affects your health Today’s #ThursdayThoughts lean into more philosophical esoteric musings. Time is a construct  Day & night, and seasons are created by Gaia earth turning. Whether you believe that earth was created as a Garden of Eden for human beings to experience; or that humans were created, in the image of god, as its custodian; or whether you believe that we, like fleas irritating a dog’s skin, are irritating the surface of earth or maybe you view human beings like parasitical bacteria growing out of control in a petri-dish. Whatever your contextual framework, you cannot argue against the fact that, we exist  indisputably ‘here’ and ‘now’. …and the earth turns …and never does a winter not turn in to spring; and  …time has an affect on our health (mental & physical). Let’s unpack the phrase: “time is a construct” We only experience time because we are sentient beings existing within time & space.  We experie...
