Your Cells Are Listening: How Talking To Your Body Can Help You… | | Evolve + Ascend. By Therese Wade, MSc, Wake Up World where this was originally featured. “Every part of your body has its own consciousness or its own soul.” These transformative words, spoken by indigenous medicine women, began my journey within to discover the extraordinary healing capacity of the human body. When this perspective was introduced to me, I was suffering from a severe chronic pain disorder. I suddenly imagined incorporating this concept into my meditation routine. I thought: Can my body hear me? Can I talk to it to gain its cooperation in healing this condition? That night, after reaching a state of deep calm through meditation, I inwardly engaged my body in a heartfelt conversation, with hope, but having no idea what to expect. My heart pounded as I realized that the path to my freedom from this condition had finally begun. When instructing my clients, I explain that a regular meditation practice is necessary to train the brain to enter alpha and theta brain wave states.

But what specifically is “the New Age movement”? I personally don’t have a problem with the idea of New Age material, as nearly my entire life has been spent dabbling in it to some extent, going back to early childhood.

But while the New Age arena contains many valid and highly useful concepts that I incorporate into my everyday life, it also has a lot of trickster deception inserted into the works. And that’s where this write up comes in. 1. 2. 3. 4. Visible Origami | The Eckhart Tolle Booth on the Road to Somewhere. Well... first off, I have been having people talking to me about Eckhart Tolle, off and on for a couple of years now. I’ve read some of his work and been left stone cold because he sounds like, “Cliff Notes for the Divine”; a sort of dumbed sideways (neither up nor down) “Chicken Soup for Something or Other”... rehashing things I have heard far more eloquently put by others who have been generally ignored due to not having a press agent.

Ten people can say the same thing and hundreds of them do but ‘the ringing of the gong within’ is not given to the hundreds and money cannot enter in. When the avatar comes this time he is coming in the collective human heart because that is the seat of judgment and this is the time of that purpose. I would be remiss in my duty if I let this go by. The real lightworkers are invisible because they are selfless and working alongside you like Babaji does when he appears now and then. As I said, I could be wrong but if I am then I am very wrong.

Mitochondria. Inflammation and Pain Management with Magnesium. Dr. Mark Sircus, Green Med InfoWaking Times Is there a correlation between magnesium deficiency, inflammation and certain diseases and ailments? Does magnesium play a crucial roll in immunity and anti-inflammatory? Inflammation plays a pivotal role in all stages of atherosclerosis, which is the progressive narrowing and hardening of the arteries over time. Inflammation is the activation of the immune system in response to infection, irritation, or injury. Characterized by an influx of white blood cells, redness, heat, swelling, pain, and dysfunction of the organs involved, inflammation has different names when it appears in different parts of the body.

The inflammatory response can be acute or chronic. The primary objective of acute inflammation is to localize and eradicate the irritant and repair the surrounding tissue but this completely changes in chronic low-grade inflammatory states. There are many factors that trigger inflammation. Is your heart on fire?

Are You Chronically Dehydrated. By Phillip Day - Investigative Journalist & Founder of "The Campaign For Truth In Medicine" As Featured in Food Matters "Chronic pains of the body which cannot easily be explained as injury or infection, should first and foremost be interpreted as signals of chronic water shortage in the area where the pain is registered. These pain signals should first be considered and excluded as primary indicators for dehydration of the body before any other complicated procedures are forced on the patient.

" - Dr F Batmanghelidj The human body is a bio-electrical water machine that requires a quart a day for every 50 lbs of body weight. The blood alone is made up of a large percentage of watery serum. The lymph fluids which transport waste and nutrients, comprising four times the volume of blood in the body, are made from the water we consume. Every cell that makes us who we are literally owes its life to an adequate supply of fresh, clean water. Here's the rub. Consider the following conditions:

While I have my personal opinion on the flu shot itself, I am going to throw that aside for this post and share 6 at-home “flu shots” that will boost your immune system naturally. These six shots are made up of real food ingredients that boost your body’s immune system to naturally ward off colds and flus.

Some of the below are made with a juicer (I own this one) although if you want to boost your immune system and do not have a juicer or do not wish to invest in one, you can increase the amount of the particular food you consume in your diet. 1) “Apple Cider Slammer” Apple cider vinegar is just that, a type of vinegar made from apple cider. This ‘Slammer’ contains beta-carotene, which according to the Mayo Clinic possesses antioxidant properties that counteract the damage done by free radicals and in return helps boost your immune system [source]. 3) “Cod Liver Kiss”

Detoxing. The coming plague will not be stopped by drugs: CDC now admits era of antibiotics at an end as bacteria out-wit drug companies. (NaturalNews) In a breakthrough moment of truth for the CDC, the agency now openly admits that prescription antibiotics have led to a catastrophic rise in superbugs, causing the death of at least 23,000 Americans each year (an estimate even the CDC calls "conservative"). This is the conclusion of the CDC's new Threat Report 2013, a document that for the first time quantifies the number of fatalities happening in America due to antibiotic-resistant superbugs. What's truly astonishing about this report is that it admits, in effect, that modern medicine is a failure when it comes to infectious disease. The whole approach of fighting bugs with isolated chemicals was doomed to fail from the start, of course, since Mother Nature adapts to chemical threats far more quickly than drug companies can roll out new chemicals.

Sadly, the very approach of using an isolated chemical to combat disease is rooted in a 1950's mentality that has nearly reached its endpoint in the history of medicine. Five Tricks I Used to Beat My Unhealthy Eating Habits.

January 20, 2013 by JOHN SUMMERLY Garlic Soup Made With 52 Cloves of Garlic Can Defeat Colds, Flu and Even Norovirus Forget the flu shot. A soup based on more than 50 cloves of garlic, onions, thyme and lemon will destroy almost any virus that enters its path including colds, flu and even norovirus. As we sneeze and cough our way through these dark months of contagious nasties, garlic is being hailed for its powers to halt viruses in their tracks.

It has gained its reputation as a virus buster thanks to one of its chemical constituents, allicin. A recent and significant finding from Washington State University shows that garlic is 100 times more effective than two popular antibiotics at fighting disease causing bacteria commonly responsible for foodborne illness. When the garlic is crushed, alliin becomes allicin. 'Because of this, people assume it is going to boost their immune systems. 'But how or whether it may actually work has still not been proven categorically.' Serves 4. Fennel & Fermented Veggies Are More Effective Than Calcium.

Meditating Measurably Changes The Brain Even When Not Actively Meditating. Nov 13, 2012 by APRIL McCARTHY Meditating Measurably Changes The Brain Even When Not Actively Meditating A new study has found that participating in an 8-week meditation training program can have measurable effects on how the brain functions even when someone is not actively meditating.

Published research has demonstrated that the practice of regular meditation can increase brain density, boost connections between neurons, decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety, provide clarity of thought, and increase positive mood endorphins. Other published studies have shown meditation can improve physical functioning, decrease chronic disease risks, and enhance overall quality of life. In a 2008 study published in the journal PloS One, researchers found that when meditators heard the sounds of people suffering, they had stronger activation levels in their temporal parietal junctures, a part of the brain tied to empathy, than people who did not meditate. Are You Part of This Demographic? Most People Let Themselves Go At The Age of 41. They say life begins at 40 - but according to health campaigners, that is just when everything starts to go rapidly downhill.Researchers have found that 41 is the age when most ‘let themselves go’.

Many over-40s begin to eat too much, put on weight and cut down on the amount of daily exercise they take, according to a new study. And in a survey to mark the start of Diabetes Week, thousands of people said they wish they could turn back the clock. More than 40 per cent of over-40s questioned felt they had let themselves go, with more than one third saying that if they could go back in time they wouldn’t allow themselves to become overweight. Despite diabetes being one of the biggest threats to the health of the nation, 42 per cent of those questioned said they didn’t understand what Type 2 diabetes was and a quarter couldn’t even name one complication associated with the disease, such as limb amputations, cardiovascular disease or blindness. 1. 2. 3. 4.

March 1, 2012 World Renown Heart Surgeon Speaks Out On What Really Causes Heart Disease We physicians with all our training, knowledge and authority often acquire a rather large ego that tends to make it difficult to admit we are wrong.

So, here it is. I freely admit to being wrong.. As a heart surgeon with 25 years experience, having performed over 5,000 open-heart surgeries,today is my day to right the wrong with medical and scientific fact. I trained for many years with other prominent physicians labelled “opinion makers.” The only accepted therapy was prescribing medications to lower cholesterol and a diet that severely restricted fat intake. It Is Not Working! These recommendations are no longer scientifically or morally defensible. The long-established dietary recommendations have created epidemics of obesity and diabetes, the consequences of which dwarf any historical plague in terms of mortality, human suffering and dire economic consequences.
