“Accept whatever comes to you woven in the pattern of your
destiny, for what could more aptly fit your needs?” - Marcus Aurelius

If you look back on the life you have lived until now, you will see that everything you have experienced, every choice, every turn, every chance encounter and new direction, led you to this precise point in space and time.

In a recent six-year study conducted on over 2800 men from Copenhagen, Denmark, scientists discovered that the resting heart rate has a whole lot to do with the length of our lives. Ancient yogis knew this too, when they pointed to elephants and other large mammals with slow breathing rates and slow-beating hearts that lived to be over 100.

A new study on aspartame has the potential to reignite the decades-old controversy behind this artificial sweetener’s safety, or lack thereof.  As far back as 1996, folks were writing about the potential link between aspartame and increasing brain tumor rates.[i] Indeed, its intrinsic neurotoxicity and carcinogenicity has been confirmed in the biomedical literature.

Nothing is quite going to cause a reaction in us like the ones we get when others 'push our buttons'.

Whether its our partners, our children, our parents or our boss - Our relationships with others are one of the most challenging dynamics we face on a daily basis.

In fact we never quite know what awaits us as a reaction to another pushing our 'buttons'. For some of us it's an outburst of emotion- a tantrum, for others it could be a feeling of shame or a sulk. Whatever the reaction may be, our 'buttons' are directly linked to our emotions, our thoughts and our beliefs and that is why we take them so personally.

In reading, hearing and watching the news of the day, we learn of the horrors that go on in our world. Though much of the news is all too troubling, there is also some that is good and often, promising. Perhaps the good can be greatly expanded if we, individually, made the effort to become wiser human beings. Wisdom, we know, can only arrive from within the self, for it cannot be taught and certainly not legislated.

Now, more than ever, it’s wise to encourage our children’s faculties of perception, some of which are called extra-sensory. They’re not really extra, as we know… they’re natural. Just in the course of accomplishing daily activities, we can create situations and games that affirm and strengthen a child’s natural abilities of observation, perception, intuition and feeling.

“What is my life if I am no longer useful to others?” ~ Goethe

The reason technological advances should matter to us is because they can help to unleash a soul that has been caged in the modern matrix for millennia. This isn’t hocus pocus, or new age jargon. It’s also not even poetic. Look at my face.

When discussing big ideas like global peace and a global shift into a higher state of consciousness, most people are either skeptical of these possibilities, or uncertain of how this could possibly come to pass in a world as riddled with challenges as ours. In these scientifically driven times, some people are discovering that within the human body lies a realm of unexplored technologies offering new ways to interact and connect with other people, and with all life on Earth.

Once we understand that everything is an illusion we’re home free. Knowing we’re eternal consciousness having this in-body experience is the greatest gift anyone can possibly wake up to.

It’s wonderful, it’s free and it’s forever… and it’s for everyone! People just need to wake up to it.

The divine language originated in the heartFeeling is the language, the forgotten language. If you understand feeling, you understand the whole.

lt is said of Lukman, one of the wisest men ever born — he is the founder of Yunani medicine — that he would go to plants, to bushes and trees, sit there, feel them, and ask them, “What use can you be put to?

The peels of fruits hold some of the most incredible nutrients in the world. There are dozens of uses, both medicinal and practical, for orange and banana peels that are unknown to most. Next time you think about throwing away one of these peels, you may want to have this information handy.

As we have witnessed, the current cycle of the New Moon in Aries, followed by the Full Moon in Scorpio highlighted issues in our personal relationships setting the foreground for this Lunar month. With the Moon moving into Aquarius for its final quarter this brings the current cycle to an end. Aquarius being an air sign represents loving yet detached communication, thereby airing issues and bringing them to finality without getting too emotionally involved. However, with Aquarius being a fixed sign we need to guard against our own stubbornness. Therefore, be alert to an unwillingness to shift your view and try not to impose your opinions onto others such as your partner, family or close friends.
