Does Your Pineal Gland Need Cleaning?

TM writes: “Please talk about decalcification of pineal gland. It seems like a good and healthy thing to do. However there is a lot of connection to opening up third eye, etc. There is also a lot of symbolism [associated with the pineal gland] with Pinecones within the Vatican. Please go into depth about this topic. If I can feel better by flossing my teeth, avoiding fluoride, and eating natural foods to decalcify my pineal gland, that sounds like something I would like to do. Obviously I do not want to mess around with anything that is occult or new age.”

 “Throughout the years of mothering my brood of five, I often resorted to my ten fingertips to count my Hail Marys when the task I was immersed in did not allow for holding the beads.”
– Donna Marie Cooper O’Boyle
Today’s Reflection: 
How simple it is to say the Rosary, as all it takes is a hand of ten fingertips! How can I incorporate this simple, yet profound prayer,
into my daily life?
