Dr. Lawrie, here is a follow up. I asked my massage therapist sister-in-law about the effects of the covid vaxx on the spiritual centers. Here was the response.

"Chris. I just asked our friend about the chakras and the covid vaccines and if she's been able to get the chakras open yet. Here is her response:

The injections close all the chakras. The best way to open them again is detox bath, 1/2 cup of Epsom salt, 5 drops frankincense oil, 5 drops lavender oil, as hot as can be tolerated until the water cools. Once or twice a week."

I suppose the vaxx could be considered to make people more animalistic. 🤔

Those naive enough to fall for the jab lies already lacked the quality that most separates us from animals - the ability to think, and draw rational conclusions from what they see all around them. If they're even more animalistic now (which I agree with you is likely), then Wow, what have they become?

It sure didn't make them physically or mentally healthier. 😏

Another good book on psychopaths is "Taming Toxic People: The Science of Identifying and Dealing with Psychopaths at Work & at Home" by David Gillespie

You are so right about the importance of understanding psychopathy. It's utterly impossible to have a clue as to why the world is, and long has been, as it is without a deep understanding of psychopathy. Just as important is to understand how non-psychopaths relate to effective psychopaths. Hint, they are attracted to them and think they're great, and brimming with "leadership qualities".

I always had a good working understanding of the phenomenon from life experience. My deep dive into the literature was about 20 years ago. Martha Stout's "The Sociopath Next Door" is an excellent and readable primer. The first thing I read was the seminal work by the pioneer in the field, Hervey Cleckley - "The Mask of Sanity". It's available free online, all 500+ pages. It's divided into chapters of individual case studies, so no need to read all of it. Robert Hare's books were good too. Unfortunately, most research, including Cleckley's and Hare's was on institutionalized psychopaths, so you need to do your own extrapolation into the wider world where successful psychopaths rule. If you get really serious, be sure to get Lobeziewsky's Political Ponerology. Difficult reading but fascinating.

Thanks for the book recommendations - I've been wanting to read some more recent books on it.

Thank you Ms Lawrie for promoting my book. Little did I know when I wrote it many years back it would be still be of help to people. I am glad it is.

It's a fine read Mr Sheridan. As are all your books.

Only this morning Carl Benjamin came out strongly that Kier Starmer presents as a psychopath (had to edit in the word "present" as I initially was too absolute on what he said). He then presented strong evidence such as his own interviews, words and actions. What he noted was a lack of internal monologue, confusion over the notion of an emotional inner life, prioritising action over thought, admitting to never being scared during his childhood, ruthlessness and doing things we would consider bad/highly questionable such as supporting the rights of death row inmates plus a lot more. It is extremely worrying that we in the UK could indeed be presided over by a psychopath. However, modelling the person gives insight into how to tackle the problem. Link here:

Dr. Lawrie,

I seldom comment, but today I must. Your recommendation to read Sheridan's Book, Puzzling People: The Labyrinth of the Psychopath, is sage advice. I obtained the Kindle version this morning and found it to be clinically accurate and an easy read.

The part about the newer technology being able to remove empathy from military personnel was disturbing, yet the last third of the book discussing psychopaths in politics and the current movement toward a post-human and transhumanist society were especially eye-opening.

The importance of us empaths [the natural prey of the psychopath] fighting back by using our natural instincts, intuition, and spirit, cannot be overstated.

Bravo Tess for recommending this book. It is a must-read for all.

Thank you Ms Lawrie for mentioning a book that was written by me many years ago. I am delighted it is still helping people out there.

I have read Thomas Sheridan’s book . Awesome ! I will look into the others. Thank you.

The fact this book is not mentioned - unless I missed reference to it is of concern - cause this book it the predominate "toolbook" on how "physcos" operate:

Ponorology - https://www.amazon.com/Political-Ponerology-Science-Adjusted-Purposes/dp/1897244258

There is an author here at Substack - this is the main theme of his place.

His name is Harrison.

What a good way to support good people thanks Dr Tess

Thank you. A very important phenomenon for us to address right now.

But I don’t think we can ever have a society free of psychopaths. In fact, I believe that psychopaths can have a useful function in society … we often benefit if they are on our side and they compete for us. There is probably an evolutionary benefit for a group to have a small percentage of psychopaths. But of course we need to have sophisticated ways to protect ourselves against them, and to control them. I think this is the prime purpose of governance systems. Our problem at the moment is that psychopaths have got inside the battlements and use those governance systems against us!

Off topic. Dr. Lawrie, could you please comment on this?

IVERMECTIN ANTI-FERTILITY BOMBSHELL

Dr. Mike Yeadon has dropped a massive bombshell, calling it “one of the most violent fertility toxins” he’s ever seen.

Comments recorded back in June 2024 have just posted Aug. 17 on the Delingpod Live channel.

Mike Yeadon: “Someone contacted me weeks ago with a bloody great dossier of papers that go back from its(Ivermectin) discovery & is unquestionably at around the doses you’re being required… it reduces the ability to conceive and grow babies to term.

And doesn’t it fit?!! Doesn’t it fit?!!

There’s nothing that’s major on the world stage that’s accidental I’m afraid.

Who put ivermectin there?! Well, the perpetrators did! And why?!

It’s like if you don’t get jabbed and avoid impacts on your fertility, a good chunk off you will take Ivermectin instead!”

Video of interview included inside the Substack article.

Is this true??

I agree with you, Dr. Lawrie. If Ivermectin had reduced fertility in any way, we would have seen it with the hundreds of millions of doses used to treat River Blindness over the decades. However, your analysis revealed there was no drop in fertility in those who received Ivermectin.

In fact, there was even an increase in fertility in those who used Ivermectin. You cannot hide the truth, and it is easy to expose a lie. And the claim that Ivermectin reduces fertility is clearly false.

What Exactly Is Gaslighting, and Why Do People Do It?

¨During the last several years, it’s been impossible to avoid the term “gaslighting.” In fact, it was selected as Merriam-Webster’s 2022 Word of the Year based on the frequency of searches for it. But what does it mean, really?

Merriam-Webster defines gaslighting as “psychological manipulation of a person usually over an extended period of time that causes the victim to question the validity of their own thoughts, perception of reality, or memories and typically leads to confusion, loss of confidence and self-esteem, uncertainty of one’s emotional or mental stability, and a dependency on the perpetrator.”

The word originates from the 1938 play Gaslight by Patrick Hamilton, in which a husband tries to convince his wife she’s losing her mind to distract her from his criminal behavior...¨

It is also the name of one of the most popular Linux distributions (computer operating systems) which is free, open source and available to download on any computer or laptop (new or old)

I highly recommend it as an alternative to Gil Bates 9,000 or the other one (known as Unix in the computing world)

Unity! (Or Community!)
