"I am concerned about a group of Catholics who have been using the book, "God Calling". I heard years ago that it was occultic and I know it is not Catholic, but many enjoy and are amazed at the daily readings and how they kind of "click" with something currently going on in their lives....

I have a feeling that this Chiropractor is in the new age but I don't know how to warn my Catholic Charismatic Covenant Community about him. Some of our members go to him for chiropractic treatment and nutrition counseling for healing. I know that he attends Catholic Church and I think he considers himself a good Catholic. We have been praying that the Blessed Mother will remove the blinders from his eyes and those in the Community who go to him. Now he is giving a Healing Workshop at the Community Center and I'm being ask to join. I hope that I am wrong and he is fine. I am attaching his flyer for the work shop. I did look on his website and he has some connections with Wayne Dryer."

have been reading the articles about alternative medicine and want to make sure of something. . . .(R)ecently I have been learning BUTEYKO breathing for relief from Asthma and I am being taught by an Asthma nurse who suffered with it herself and got cured. The Australian Asthma website teaches it and some of the doctors in the UK teach it. To be honest I think it is a reliable method and not New age, certainly the practicioner is a conventional practitioner and you are told at all times to keep your medication with you but the aim is to reduce and sometimes stop taking medication which is not a bad thing. Recently I had prayers for having done TM and Yoga and would hate to think that this is anything like that. . . . Can you advise?"
