HOW ENERGY CLEANSING BENEFITS YOU

 


Energetic cleansing (also known as spiritual cleansing) has gained significant attention as people increasingly seek balance between the mind, body, and spirit. This ancient concept is deeply rooted in various cultural and spiritual traditions, it goes beyond being a mere ritual. It is a pathway to rejuvenating one’s personal energy and environment.

What is Energetic Cleansing?

Energetic cleansing is a holistic approach focused on purging negative or stagnant energies with the aim to restore balance and harmony. This practice, prevalent in many cultures, rests on the belief that everything in the universe, including humans and their environments, is composed of interconnected energies. These energies can profoundly influence our mental, physical, and emotional well-being. Energetic cleansing uses various techniques to clear these energies, paving the way for a positive and  rejuvenated aura that manifest progress. 

What are the Benefits of Energetic Cleansing?

Here are the ten Benefits of Energy Cleansing. 

1. Stress Reduction: Engaging in energetic cleansing practices like fasting, prayers, meditation, affirmations, washing and smudging your body and environment or sound therapy can help in reducing stress. These activities often promote relaxation and can lead to a reduction in symptoms associated with high stress, such as anxiety and insomnia.

2. Improved Mental Clarity and Focus: Techniques such as meditation and breathwork enhance mental clarity and focus. By clearing the mind and physical environment of clutter and negative thoughts, energetic cleansing can improve concentration and cognitive function.

3. Emotional Healing: Energetic cleansing is often used as a tool for emotional healing. Practices like Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT) Reiki or chakra balancing are believed to help in processing and releasing emotional baggage, potentially leading to improved emotional resilience and well-being.

4. Increased Energy and Vitality: Clearing blockages and balancing energy through practices like yoga or Qi Gong can lead to increased overall energy and vitality. Practitioners often report feeling more physically and mentally energized and present after such practices.

5. Enhanced Sense of Balance and Harmony: Energetic cleansing practices aim to restore balance and harmony within the body and mind. This can translate into a greater sense of peace and well-being, improving overall quality of life.

6. Boosted Immune System Function Stress directly affect the immune system, the reduced stress and improved emotional balance achieved through energetic cleansing can indirectly boost the immune system.

7. Improved Sleep Quality: Techniques that promote relaxation and stress reduction, such as meditation and aromatherapy, can improve sleep quality. Better sleep contributes to overall health and well-being.

8. Spiritual Growth and Connection: Many energetic cleansing practices have a spiritual component, which can lead to a deeper sense of connection with oneself and the world, contributing to overall spiritual growth and fulfillment.

9. Detoxification of the Body: Certain practices like salt baths or the use of certain crystals can help in the physical detoxification process,.

10. Enhanced Relationships: By improving one’s emotional and mental state, energetic cleansing can lead to better interpersonal relationships. A clearer, more balanced mindset can contribute to healthier and more harmonious interactions with others.

HOW TO GET YOUR ENERGY CHECKED AND CLEANSED 

The first thing is to find out what needs to be cleansed since acknowledgement is a basic condition for an energy to be transmuted. Energy can't be destroyed but transformed from one state to another. 

Most people who book for an energy cleansing already have unpleasant experiences that they need to understand and clear. but Those who don't know will require a scan or a spiritual consultation to see what the blocks are and the unique solution for that problem. 

Please note that repentance is the basis for healing. If you don't change from the behaviour that attracted an unfavourable situation, whatever materials or techniques used to cleanse you will yield little or no result. 

Remain blessed πŸ™

NIGERIAN PARTY JOLLOF-- THE HYPE



Rice is a staple food in Nigeria after bread and tea, often served with tomatoes sauce or stew. JOLLOF- rice often served in Nigerian parties became popular especially in Lagos and major cities during the late 80s and 90s, when the Togolese and Ghanians were more in Nigeria even though one of their traditional food was Kokonte a stretchy and starchy pudding made from boiled cassava and pounded till it changes form then served with really hot groundnut soup, okro and light stew with animal protein. They also ate Banku a corn meal. Their jollof rice was quite different, often boiled with the dried leaves of sorghum bicolor the red Guinea corn also known as poro-poro by Yoruba herb sellers. 

I can remember back then the two Ghanians living down our street would start selling their cooked jollof rice from 7:00am and before 10 am it's all gone, even though the quantity they cooked is around 16 dericas of rice because they have to carry the whole pot on their heads. That pot served so many people because it was sold in small portions, more expensive than the regular white rice and pepper stew sold by the Yorubas. 

These Ghanians also offered catering services for parties but people preferred the Togolese, because they were better at cooking the party jollof that we know today. Alhough the Togos were known for their mashed beans and fried dried pepper palm oil sauce called Ewa-aganyi which is now served in Nigerian parties, although they serve it as mashed beans and peppered gravy not all caterers get the Ewa-aganyi features. 

The hype about the party jollof rice all over the world is based on the unique richness of the aroma and taste also because it's from Nigeria! Even though the origin of Jollof rice is believed to be from the ancient Wolof Empire, which encompassed parts of present-day Senegal, Gambia & Mauritius. 

The technicalities involved in cooking the Nigerian jollof rice actually makes it impossible for two jollof rice to taste the same cooked by two caterers, even if they use the same ingredients.  Not all caterers can get the three features consistently. The curiosity is what makes it less boring to eat which makes guests look forward to it at parties. Some guests can walked pass Jollof rice without the aroma, some may ask to taste it first before serving a large portion. A pro knows a party jollof that passed the three test just by looking and the aroma. 

A Nigerian party Jollof must pass these three test:

1. Colour- it must look it. 

2. Aroma- It must smell it.

3. Flavour- it must taste like party jollof.

Even though some spice manufacturers have formulated a combination of spices that can help you to achieve the taste and aroma that party jollof rice is known for but it may not generate the rich and natural flavours if not used correctly. 

[Place advert party jollof spices here] 

THE TECHNICAL ASPECTS 

A party jollof rice requires precision! all the ingredients must be complete! From the specie of rice, cooking utensils, spices, the heat source and the caterers must have experience or else they will serve your guest half cooked rice because they lack the experience to correct it because it's possible to fix. 

Your Rice:

The specie of rice must be right! otherwise it will not soak up the base sauce as it should. if it is too dry, your rice will get burnt before it's done. If your raw rice comes over per boiled it will come out mashy if you add the same quantity of water that you are use to. Only an experienced caterer knows what to do to manipulate that type of rice. Long grain rice is better for party jollof rice.

Your Tomato Paste:

Although party jollof rice also gets its rich colour from tomato paste but the paste must have the right colour and freshness. Using a product that is about to expire or with dark colour can ruin the outcome of your jollof rice. 

[Place Tomato Paste Advert here email below]

It is a must to add fresh Roma tomatoes, a specie of tomatoes that works well with jollof rice. The best peppers to use is habanero pepper because it's juicy, sweet and not too spicy followed by red bell peppers which can help to cut out the chemical taste most tomato paste comes with also serves as a natural thickener and redness to your base sauce. 

Avoid cayenne and chilli peppers if you are not a pro although they also add a good outcome to the aroma by thickening your base sauce, the seeds can make your Jollof rice to taste bitter if it's too much, it can also cause the rice to burn which is an advantage in the hands of a pro. 

Your Heat Source:

Back then it was a must to use fire wood  for the cooking of jollof rice because it provided a strong steady heat and the smoke from it also gets into the rice thereby giving it a richer smoky aroma and taste, especially if dried fire wood is used thereby limiting the use of flammable such as kerosene or plastics to keep the fire burning. Using too much of those flammables can affect the aroma or taste of jollof rice because it will get in there. 

Cooking Gas stove is now used for most party jollof but in the hands of a novice the jollof rice will be missing in either of the three basic features of Nigerian party jollof rice. In fact even in the hands of a pro, jollof rice cooked on other heat source apart from the fire wood can lose one of its features when exposed to air or kept over night. 

The Steel Pots:

Today any pot can be used for party jollof but original iron cast steel pots work best because it plays a a non-stick function that prevents your jollof rice from burning before it's done. It also insulates heat within the pot which allows the caterer to correct half cooked rice mixed with cooked rice that occurs due to imbalanced heat source, that is, there is more heat on one side of the pot than the other or the heat source is not strong or high enough enough to reach the top or centre of the rice which can make the top part to be half done. A bad pot cover can also cause this which requires a transparent nylon to cover the rice directly, to insulate the heat after reducing the heat source. 

The caterer must also know when to lower the heat source or else your rice will come out with sauce all around it but not inside the rice grain. It will look or taste like stired white rice in tomato stew. 

Wooden Utensils:

Every Nigeria caterer knows you don't use metal spoon to stir jollof rice or your rice will get burnt before it's done. You use a turning stick, this is to prevent the rice from burning also to stir up the sauce with the rice comfortably. Then the stirring gives the jollof a slight sticky texture even if you want the rice to be a grainy, so that it will mold fast when you serve it with a mold. 

Stirring jollof rice at the right time is key. 

Standard Serving:

Jollof rice can be garnished with any Vegetables that will not add any strong taste to it such as green peas, black eye peas etc. after it is done. It is served with any protein but the standard serving goes with Fried peppered chicken with vegetable salad. Some serve with beans cake aka moin-moin or fried plantains but stick with the standard, you sure need the vegetables to digest all that carbohydrates.

THE UNPOPULAR TYPE- Aplastic Anaemia


Despite its name, aplastic anemia, or bone marrow failure, is more than anemia. Aplastic anemia is a rare but serious blood condition that occurs when your bone marrow cannot make enough new blood cells for your body to work normally. It can develop quickly or slowly, and it can be mild or serious. At this time, there is no way to prevent aplastic anemia.

What are the symptoms of aplastic anemia?

Fatigue

Recurring Infections that last a long time

Easy bruising or bleeding, bruising just appears on skin without any physical impact. 

google.com, pub-1963396588701043, DIRECT, f08c47fec0942fa0

How is aplastic anemia diagnosed?

To diagnose aplastic anemia, your doctor will order tests to find out whether you have low numbers of cells in your bone marrow and blood.


What causes aplastic anemia?

Aplastic anemia is caused by damage to stem cell inside your bone marrow, which is the sponge-like tissue within your bones. Many diseases and conditions can damage the stem cells in bone marrow. As a result, the bone marrow makes fewer red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.

The most common cause of bone marrow damage is from your immune system attacking and destroying the stem cells in your bone marrow. This is a type of autoimmune illness, a disease that makes your body attack itself. Other causes of aplastic anemia include some medicines, such as those used in chemotherapy, and exposure to toxins or chemicals in the environment.

You can also inherit the condition, in rare cases.


How is aplastic anemia treated?

The conventional treatments for aplastic anemia may include the following:

Blood and bone marrow transplants, which may cure aplastic anemia in some people

Blood transfusions

Medicines to stop your immune system from destroying the stem cells in your bone marrow

Medicines to help your body make new blood cells

Removing or staying away from toxins in your environment.

Other Treatments includes

Diet

Dietary Supplements 

Exercise 

Counseling, Therapy and Prayers

Your doctor will monitor your condition and screen you for blood conditions regularly. If you take medicine that affects your immune system, you will also need to take steps to prevent infection and get annual flu shots.


What happens if aplastic anemia is not treated?

Aplastic anemia can raise your risk of complications such as bleeding, leukemia, or other serious blood conditions. Without treatment, aplastic anemia can lead to serious medical conditions such as an irregular heartbeat and heart failure.

LOWER FOOD PRICES- Peppers


Peppers and tomatoes are staples consumed by majority of the world population especially Nigeria where almost every meal contains pepper. 

Peppers and tomatoes contain rich amount of nutrients including vitamin C and A which boost eye sight and immunity. It possess anti inflammatory, anti cancer properties and other amazing health benefits. 

Imagine what the absence of these essential nutrients will do to our bodies and the pressure it will put on our health sector as sick people flood in with diet deficiency related illnesses. 


The rising cost of peppers and tomatoes in the country since mid last year 2024 has now become a norm. Pepper that was retailed for ₦200 rose to ₦1,000 last year, during the Islamic festive season, surprisingly we witnessed a sudden drop back to normal prices the very next day after the festivals. It was clear that the rise in price was manipulated. 

Now that we are approaching another Islamic festival the prices has gone up, in fact prices started rising from the Muslim fast this year 2025. 

I had an opportunity to speak with three major food distributors in Lagos all having stores at the two major food hub in Lagos. These distributors go to the farms to buy foodstuffs themselves because it's cheaper. 

They explained that there is food in the farms but the main challenge is access roads! In fact there are vehicles to move the food but these drivers charge so much due to the damages on their vehicles using these bad roads Some roads are not even accessible. Since there are no roads, access to fuel station is also a challenge. A driver can ride kilometres on bike in search of fuel and diesel. 

Apart from other challenges farmers experience like the cost of fertilisers and pesticides, the construction of roads to their farms is definitely not within their control. 

Accessible roads will also give security agents access to protect farmers from attackers. These attackers take undue advantage of the lack of access roads to launch attacks on farmers in remote areas. 

The challenge of storage is also there since there is no access to power supply or steady power supply to power storage facilities for perishables, so it is safer for farmers to get their harvests into the markets as fast as possible. 

These major food distributors also said that farmers watch their foods go to waste due to delays in taking them to the markets. Distributors who get to them have to pay more using multiple bikes to move large amount of foods to the major roads which is kilometres away, then load them into a waiting truck thereby adding to the selling prices of food. 


The distributors I spoke to looked tired and stressed, a state that shouldn't be if these stressful conditions don't exist because the selling food item is quite lucrative but the stress levels take them to the hospital often. 

The state government will do well to face this challenges because it is not beyond them to construct roads into major farm areas in the country. They should create a centralised farmer's market near these major farms with accessible roads. 

The rising cost of food in the country has led to the importation of foods and other long term perishable items yet Nigeria has all the fertile land for producing her own food. 

Imagine if the government in other countries abandon roads leading to their farm lands and allow farmers to stress then there will be food scarcity all over the world. 

Our state government should take responsibility and do the needful before things gets worse. 

Lily-Rose.

STEP DOWN FOR UNITY & PEACE- Political aspirants

 


Reflecting on the situation of the country and praying for  solutions to come. During my search online for a map with the geographical locations of the dams in Nigeria to see if our internal dams may have added to our problems by slowing down the movement of water within, in and out of the country. Nigeria is not a dry land! There are lots of dams in this country and its shocking the hydroelectricity generated is not benefiting the country as it should.

In my reflections & online research I stumbled on a friend's post and she (a priestess) guided through her post for people to open page number X and read line Y of the book closest to them, I instinctively followed her guide, I looked around me & the closest book to me was my Bible the new testament and when I opened it lo & behold: it was Matthew 12 vs 25 where Jesus said: "Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolution, every city or house divided against itself will not stand" and the Spirit just spoke to me and it said: that is the root cause of the problem in your country- Nigeria! 

Whatever that is done will only be temporary fixes that will still collapse. The disunity in this country, the wickedness in the hearts of some of those in leadership positions both in the public and private sector is dividing against itself. The corrupt are at war against each other, the thieves are hating & envious of the bigger thieves wishing to be in their position to embezzle public funds. The loudest of critics are given political position so that they can make noise but against the people who oppose them, especially those they once claimed to protest for but of course, you don't talk when food is in your mouth; they become silent when they get a large size of their own share of the national cake leaving their supporters heart broken. Now Alluta has gone "solo" nobody wants to support any government critic, every body use their voice individually to express themselves on social media.

We cannot ignore the multi -religious & multi-ethnic sentiments that is growing louder every day. We cannot also say that the state of insecurity in this country is not rooted in the protest against the marginalisation of the south east & other minor ethnic groups which is also affecting our economy negatively. It is the internal unrest that attracted the the external troubles- Terrorism.  So many lifes have been lost as a result of this instability. Waste of monies on weapons in a country where there are starving children & students are out of school because lecturers can't be paid what they deserve. We are also losing our best doctors & other professionals to countries who didn't invest in their education because our leaders do not know how to utilise human resources.

Those candidates who are contesting have suddenly forgotten that this country is divided into six geopolitical zones, maybe they also need to remember that independent ethnic groups sacrificed their personal identity to be grouped under tribes that does not at all reflect who they are because Urhobo, Itsekeri is not Igbo but it is South South and grouped as Igbos, Ebira, Lokoja is not Hausa but it is North Central and so many independent ethnic groups ruled by monarchs who sacrificed their personal identity for the unity of this country but today we see individuals who cannot sacrifice their desire for power. On one hand is Senator Tinubu who feels entitled and on the other  is Alhaji Atiku who carries this energy like someone who needs this power to achieve some certain private objective which has nothing to do with making more money. 

Our political leaders before them divided this country into six geopolitical zones for a reason the present leaders are yet to exploit due to selfishness. In their wisdom they may have seen that it was easier to group all the independent ethnic groups into six, we can also see that the north and south both have three zones each for balance. Since these six zones own this country called Nigeria with each allowing the zone heading the central government to take the natural resources from their land for the good of all the groups involved, then why should two out of the three major tribes be rotating leadership without including the third tribe? Yet they expect their political enemies not to use that malicious oversight as a weapon to make their own governance a mess! 

It is so easy for an outsider to make an enemy out of a family member who feels left out of his own home; the enemy will present his evil proposal to him as a genuine concern, give him weapons to fight for his right and as he fights the enemies objectives are fulfilled but the wise within or around will see that the best way to win is to bring in the prodigal son and take care of him so that the wars can end. 



If truly Sen. Ahmed Tinubu & Alh. Atiku are true elder statesmen as they have often claimed then they will step down and anoint a South eastern candidate who will represent the interests of their party & geopolitical zones, also ensure that the religious sentiments are not at all ignored because it is a very sensitive one. They should step down and get a South East Presidential candidate, a Christian and a North Eastern Vice President who must be a Muslim. Let power go to the South east but for APC, PDP, LP etc. to stop this unrest, to avert  misfortune. All South eastern candidates from two major parties will be a big challenge for the main aspirant from the east. 

The leaders who divided this country into six geopolitical zones were going some where with it, which may mean they wanted power to shift from North to South and to rotate within the three zones as President and Vice President. So why should all parties produce candidates from other zones to compete with a zone whose turn it is to lead? If it is the turn of the South East then let all the political parties of all the other zones go to the south east and shop for someone that will represent their interests just as the South east will produce someone who will represent their own interest too, after their eight years tenure, then power moves naturally, with no struggle back to the North maybe by that time it will be North Central and the South East will also chose a North Central person that will represent their interest until it comes back to the South again to the South west for stability, predictability and progress. 

We cannot continue to pretend that these things don't matter. Every tribe matters! Every religion matters! We cannot continue to allow this disunity to lead this country to the path of self destruction. Those who have kept their children & family out of this country for safety & stability reasons should not think that they will be safe for long if things continue to get worse in this country. 

Remember, a former Senate president whose daughter needs a kidney transplant.... all the challenges they are facing is a reaction from the unrest going on in this country. Many of the families of the elite and ruling class will face similar victimisation in future as a result of this failing state called Nigeria.

Let Nigeria move forward so that peace can reign! Our survival as a nation is only possible on the solid foundation of peace and strong pillars of unity. There will be more money to embezzle for those who can't let go of the propensity to steal but there will be immediate consequences for them. Let Nigeria progress! Let out people come back home and invest!

Nigeria can be what God has ordained it to be if we all do this- sacrifice personal interest for national interest! Sacrifice personal ambition as those independent ethnic groups sacrificed their personal identity for the unity of this country.

I wish all of us the strength to do what is right. In Jesus name. Amen!
