Its been a while guys! Okay, earlier this month, I flew to Springfield Missouri, and rode down to Branson MO, to attend and be a part of the Missouri State Beekeepers Annual Conference, where I conducted an apitherapy workshop that I call "The medicine chest known as the beehive" It is certainly wonderful to see so many people every year becoming more interested in alternative modes of wellness and the popularity in Apitherapy on the rise. There was an impressive turn out, where attendees guided through all of the healing aspects of all honeybee produced and gathered substances which included raw honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, beeswax, and of course, the sting from live honeybees, their uses and application. Speaking of "The Sting" while program directors were setting up my program, I spied a baby grand piano, and decided to take advantage of its presence. A little live entertainment while things were being set up, and played the theme from "The Sting", The Entertainer. It not was only fun, and the people were thrilled, but it was a wonderful example of showing people something that I love to do, and at one time had lost the ability to do this because of what Lyme disease can do to anybody. Everybody gets involved..with questions, hands on, and partaking as a "stingee" should they like..And, about 30 different individuals tried out, an intentional sting..including one staff member of the hotel, and the Missouri State Honey Queen! A special thanks to those of you who attended, and the MO State Beekeepers Association for havaing me, and your wonderful hospitality..and especially to Pam for her diligent work in putting this event into the successful program it was.
This past July, a film crew arrived at my home here in Bradford Vermont, to do a shoot for the television program called "The Incurables" which will air later this year. Two days were spent filming, and interviewing clients including one black labrador! It was a great experience, including a reunion with the man that introduced me to apitherapy back in the late 80s. I look forward to seeing this air, and shall post when I hear of any updates on the program. Check local listings for "The Incurables",
Winter has been long here in Vermont this year, and so looking forward to the arrival of warm Spring weather, and the delivery of 16 packages of honeybees around the 15th of April...We are due for another major snow this coming Friday, April 1st..aint no foolin!

Here is a very nice e-mail I recently received. Please feel free to comment, and list your own experience with apitherapy.
I began to develop a rash on my body in February of 2002. My
dermatologist thought it might have been caused by a blood transfusion
which I had been given. It got progressively worse as the year went
on, so much so that by December I was placed in the hospital and given
huge doses of prednisone. It made the rash less aggressive but the
rash was still with me. I was kept on a regiment of prednisone. I
went to a specialist who thought it was caused by a parasite (dust
mite). Also, he said my immune system was compromised because of
chemotherapy and radiation I had received. (I had cancer surgery in
February of 2001.)
I met Reyah Carlson in September of 2004. She felt my condition was
due to excessive toxicity in my body and suggested bee stings, starting
with 3 or 4 and gradually increasing the stings to 22 to 25 stings
twice a week. I wasn't able to see her twice a week, only
occasionally, but I did manage once a week most of the time for about 9
months. After she left California, I continued to get stings from Ray
Seipel in Dr. Andrew Kochan 's office in Encino, California.
My rash is completely gone. I continue ton get stings one a month to
improve my immune system and to keep in check a slight arthritic
problem in my fingers.
I can't emphasize enough how this has changed my life. The terrible
itching is gone and the redness of my skin is gone. I am so
comfortable now, not having to worry about my appearance but, most of
all, that irritable itching.
God bless the bees, and Reyah, for everything.
