Water...... the source of life..... water.. all life depend on it.... water... our aplenty is called " The blue planet" and consists of around 80% water..... big oceans. big lakes and rivers.... Yes, so every day we need water in big amounts- for cooking, cleaning vegetables and fruits, for cleaning our clothes, cleaning the house, taking a bath or shower, for hydrating our bodies! Water is one of the 4 nature - elements ( air, fire, water, earth) ~ water is alive ~ look at water in nature ~ how it flows in rivers, in the oceans.... the rings created when throwing a rock into it... yes, water is an amazing element.... Living Water! It is said that drinking plenty of clean water every day prevents diseases- it gives us energy and clarity... Water is medicine! I dear say " Water is the best drink" ~ pure, clean and filtered, tasty water... So how can we drink more water and enjoy drinking it? Yes, by filtering it! First of all! The water that comes out of the tap, is in most instances carrying several heavy metals, perhaps also pesticides from agriculture... many places, especially in The US, the tap water is fluoridated. Sodium Fluoride is added, a waste product from the industry... Other chemicals often found in water is chlorine, mercury, cadmium, barium, strontium, lithium, benzotriatzole- methyl 1h, triclosan, atrazine,caffeine, isophorone, metolachlor and more! ( source: www.environmentalhealthnews.org ) Do you want to ingest these have metals? Not very tempting, huh? Have you ever been drinking pure water? It is so tasty and alive. If water tastes as good as filtered water does, we will not crave many other drinks.. our desire for sweets does also decrease. To start with I can recommend a simple water filter such as Brita. As you move along and want even cleaner water and when you have the funds for it, I can recommend a reverse osmosis filter that you can attach on the tap so that the filtration is constant. You may also use other kind of filters. Amazon have many filters for sale. Drinking unfiltered water in the western world may not make you sick as the bacteria is killed. Still there is a high percentage of heavy metals in the water and those get stored in the body. They give our liver lots of work, too much work, actually.... Have metals such as fluoride affects the pineal gland negatively. Fluoride calcifies the pineal gland, permanently. It closes us off to higher dimensions and the psuchich effects of fluoride is obedience and dumbness. I strongly recommend checking with the authorities in your area whether the water is fluoridated or not. It is our right to know! If it is fluoridated, then you may want to have a filter that removes the fluoride. Once you get used to drinking filtered water you may not want to drink "normal" water again! You will so feel the difference! And you will save money too... and the environment... not much buying of bottled water and soft drinks....less coffee and tea.... water will satisfy your thirst and cravings and it is so beneficial for health! Ideally water that comes from the tap, needs to be REVITALIZED. More can be said about the memory of water and the work of departed Masaru Emoto, plus the work of nature scientist Victor Schauberger in Austria. There will be separate posts on this! I will write a post on this later!!! Good luck ~ a water filter is a very good investment Brita simple water filter One of the reverse osmosis filters available. You also find smaller ones that take less space. http://www.environmentalhealthnews.org/ehs/news/2013/unregulated-water-contaminants To have your heart with you in your work is so important! Take a check to see if your work is aligned with your soul's path! Now is the time to walk the path highest to us and make sure we do a job that also gives us happiness, where we can use our special skills and also be of service to others... or/and the earth..and as many lifeforms as possible..
You can feel the difference when you do something your soul really is thriving in! From when you do something perhaps from other reasons such as money.... and not trusting that when you're doing what is the highest path for your soul, you will be supported and provided for! Listen to your heart... deeply... what does it tell you to do... what feels best... what gives most joy.... we all have something very special to share with the world..... and all we share makes the creation complete and perfect... in harmony!!! You will see that when you actually follow the path of your soul... other things in life will fall into place as well... It's always possible to change things... maybe we have done something where we were not feeling that joy we hoped for... and it was not in complete alignment with our soul... well, yes, so good as we can change that and return to our soul's path smile not "get lost" in a path that's not "for us... " or a job... when we follow our soul's path, other things in life seems to fall into place as well! It's really a time for miracles! And will be!!! Oohhhhh!!! Wow!!! We made this chocolate fudge.... and it's heavenly.... so good!! Maybe one of the best we have made... and tasted... and so easy to make, vegan and raw!! Preparation time only 5 minutes!!
The recipe is as follows: 3/4 cup organic extra virgin coconut oil 3/4 cup maple syrup ( or agave syrup...) 1 cup raw cacao powder ( preferably organic) 1/4th teaspoon natural vanilla extract Blend it all in good blender for a few minutes. Then add in trays :) Put in freezer for MINIMUM 30 minutes, if 3 hours, then it will be very delicious. Cut them up in squares and EAT! You can add goji berries, peanut butter, chia, chopped nuts, dried fruits, chili and more in these! I promise you, you will LOVE these and you will want tot share them and make them again and again... even the boys made them here! What is organic food?
Organic foods are foods produced by organic farming. While the standards differ worldwide, organic farming in general features cultural, biological, and mechanical practices that foster cycling of resources, promote ecological balance, and conserve biodiversity. Synthetic pesticides and chemical fertilizers are not allowed, although certain organically approved pesticides may be used under limited conditions. In general, organic foods are also not processed using irradiation, industrial solvents, or synthetic food additives.[1] Currently, the European Union, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Japan and many other countries require producers to obtain special certification in order to market food as organic within their borders. In the context of these regulations, organic food is food produced in a way that complies with organic standards set by national governments and international organizations. Although the produce of kitchen gardens may be organic, selling food with the organic label is regulated by governmental food safety authorities, such as the US Department of Agriculture(USDA) or European Commission. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_food#cite_note-2 We know about everything that is happening on this planet and we know that we can do something about it We also know that focusing on the negative will give that energy. So what we want to do is to DO something POSITIVE for our Earth Mother. We can do something POSITIVE every day. We can spend our energy wisely. Where it is needed. Very little step will help this planet and all life here. To live a conscious life, take conscious choices every day, each one of us, that will help much! And to give credit to all those who are doing something to create a better world. We are in a growing number! There is big hope! I wanted to share this beautiful New Year's message from St. Germain. It is changed through Antera, a very talented healer and lightworker who lives in Mount Shasta, California with her twin flame and husband, Omaran. I consider her a very clear and strong channel and source. Big thanks for all the powerful work they do! http://www.soulevolution.org/channelings/15-jan01-germain.htm From St Germain: New Year Message [Through Antera on January 1, 2015, inside the Mt Shasta Pyramid with Omaran.] I give my blessings for the first day and the entire year of 2015! Every year, as it begins, there is a resurgence of hope and renewal, and new ideas and plans that are readily apparent upon the planet through humanity, and it is so good to see and feel this. Each person who reads or hears my words, is known by me and I give you my special attention, love and blessings. As you are probably aware, the last two years have been ones of integration. This has been a wild ride for many of humanity, because the energies built and built for more than a decade, and then climaxed in 2012. And since then you have all been integrating those energies within your lives, within your energy bodies, within your physical bodies, with varying success . . . and with varying effort. Those of you who have been diligently working to heal yourselves for decades may be finding this a bit easier than those who are more newly awakened. In fact, those of you who have been conscious through the whole process, for twenty years or more, are the groundbreakers, the ones who are leading the way for the others, and making it easier. That does not necessarily mean that it has been entirely easy for you. We applaud all of your efforts, we applaud all of humanity in riding these waves and going through the changes and transformation and healing that are necessary for this time. We believe that 2015 will be a bit easier, because for those of you who have been working very hard on yourselves to heal and progress and transform for many, many years, the hardest patterns and the deepest issues will get a break, will receive blessings that are going to push you forward and to allow you to achieve that which you have been working toward. Some of you will find that everything you have been focused on comes to fruition, in a very good way, and you can shine your Light out to the world much easier, and to more people. Some of you will find you still have some integrating to do before this can happen. But we do not anticipate quite the chaos that has been on the planet the last two years, to be continuing into this year, because of all the work that you have done. Each individual has done what they could, by healing themselves and helping others. You might think that there is so much wrong with this planet, there are so many things not working right, there are areas of strife and war, and people who are greedy and corrupt and affecting everyone else. And yes, those things are a part of your world right now. But this year holds the promise of many of those old ways of thinking, old ways of feeling, and old grudges, dissipating much faster. The way that you, the Lightworkers, help with this is not to put your attention there, but to put your intention and focus into the areas and people, into the thoughts that are creating a better world. Of course, you have heard this before, but it is well to continue to remind you, because so many of you occasionally get caught up in the chaos, in those energies that are counter to what almost everyone on the planet wants . . . a sustainable, loving, joyful existence that can be enjoyed by everyone . . . a land of plenty for everyone. As you hold the focus on this, it will manifest, and this year is critical for this focus, to make sure that all those transformative energies that have come in and have become integrated, for the most part, by the Lightworkers, can now make their way to those who are more unconscious, who are not awake, who have not opened their hearts. This is the next level of integration, and we call upon all the Lightworkers to help in this process. And I do mean moment to moment! Controlling your thoughts! If watching the news makes you think bad or judgmental things about some people, then don't watch it, don't put your attention where you cannot hold a focus of blessing and love and joy. For some of you this is easy, but for some of you this is not so easy. This includes everyone in your life and everyone that you don't even know that you hear about. The focus is on the inter-connectedness between all of you on the planet, not to mention all in the universe! This is also a fast way to integrate the greatest Light within your own system. This year may prove very challenging to some people who have not been awake, who have allowed their thoughts to stray into areas that are non-productive and hurtful. This is the way WE work! We look for where the Light is, we look to the people who are doing good things for humanity and for all life forms, and we put our attention there. We send supportive and loving energies to those people who are making a difference. We do not send energy to those who are not, but only hold a focus of love and hope so that they have a chance to break through those old thought forms, which are all a part of the old paradigm, the old way of thinking. Humanity must, absolutely MUST move out of the old ways of thinking, that says there has to be wars, that fighting is a way to solve problems, that accumulating vast amounts of money and resources is positive . . . these are all ways of the past! The underlying strength of those ways of thinking has been vastly decreased, so we know they have to change. This year may be the year that much of that changes into a higher level of consciousness, You may find that people you never thought would wake up are opening very fast, and recognizing their true nature, which is one of love . . . no matter how deep people dig a hole for themselves, they will eventually find their way out. This year our hope is that many who have dug those deep holes, will indeed find their way out. And when they emerge and awaken there will be tremendous joy and support for them! We love this planet, and we know that you all do as well. It is such a beautiful gem in the universe. Each of you who reads and understands these words, is a beautiful shining Light on the planet! We are so appreciative of what all of you are doing, whether you focus your attention totally inward on healing yourself, or whether you are more outwardly focused. Every bit of healing that happens is noticed, and helps others. No one is alone, not a single being! And we are always with you! The more Light you create, the more of our attention you get. So let this be the year of great attention, of great Light, of great success and prosperity for the Lightworkers! I thank you, and ask you again to focus on that which you want, focus on your Divine nature and you will realize who you really are! My blessings upon all of you, every single one! The debate around genetically modified organisms (GMO) is huge and heated on either side. One of the major considerations when arguing against the use of GMO products is the potential for environmental harm. What exactly are the environmental risks to consider in regards to GMOs? Firstly, toxicity is a huge issue surrounding chemical pesticides and herbicides, used commonly with GMOs, in addition to the toxicity inherent to these plants. GMOs may be toxic to non-target organisms, bees and butterflies being the most talked-about examples currently. Bees are hugely important in the pollination of many food crops, but are unfortunately extremely endangered by modern agricultural techniques, such as GM crops. Monarch butterflies are specifically at risk from GMO maize plants. In addition to bees and butterflies, birds are also at risk from pesticides, and work as biological control agents and pollinators, again, like bees. Furthermore, the longterm effects of GMOs are not certain. Pests that are targeted by these agricultural methods can adapt to pesticides and herbicides, in addition to the DNA changes in GM plants to make them ¨resistant.¨ This means that they will not always be effective, but their toxic legacies will remain. Cumulative effects of products such as GMOs are important to take into consideration. Evidence also suggests that small genetic changes in plants may produce even larger ecological shifts, meaning that there is potential for GMO´s to become persistent and weedy in agricultural conditions, since they are modified to be resistant to some modern agricultural techniques. This can also mean being invasive in natural settings, where GMOs, of course, do not occur naturally. It is not impossible for new, human modified, plants to become invasive species in delicate, natural ecosystems. Finally, biodiversity, while it is critical in all ecosystems and to the sustainability of all species, is put at risk by GMOs. When GM crops are planted, generally in a monocrop fashion, many heritage seeds are no longer used. The nature of GMOs means fewer weed flowers and, therefore, less nectar for pollinators. Toxins released into the soil through the plants´ routes mean fewer soil bacteria, which are integral to healthy soil for plants to grow without the use of chemical fertilizers. Toxic residues are left in the soil of GM crops. Nutrients are not returned to the soil in mono crops and from GMO foods, meaning that soil is becoming dry and void of all nutrients, generally integral to the growing process. A cycle of dependence on GMO seeds and chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides is then created in order to grow a single crop. In addition to soil issues, the irrigation used to grow GM foods naturally carries all of these problems into water sources and into the air. This exposes different bacteria, insects, and animals to the same problems. All of these impacts must be taken into consideration in the larger picture; GMO´s DNA may end up in soil, compost, animal feed and byproducts, and other living organisms from insects to larger pests. Bees can transport pesticides, herbicides, and DNA through the air into the environment. Once a plant is introduced in an agricultural environment, it is reasonable to assume it will become part of a larger ecosystem, meaning the problem of environmental damage done by GMOs is much larger than simply potentially harming our health. Aside from environmental issues, GMOs are the topic of social and ethical debates as well. It goes without saying that we live in an inter-connected world, where the way we interact with nature can cause a complex array of consequences. Being informed on the food we are consuming, and the way modern agricultural techniques are affecting the environment, is one effective way of consciously interacting with the natural world.

Genetically modified soy beans & corn~ two of the most genetically modified plants on the planet
Definition: (genetically modified organism) is the result of a laboratory process where genes from the DNA of one species are extracted and artificially forced into the genes of an unrelated plant or animal. The foreign genes may come from bacteria, viruses, insects, animals or even humans.
Often antibiotics or herbicides are added to the seed. The World Heath Organization (WHO) defines them as organisms whose DNA has been altered in a non-natural way. GM plants are usually changed to be insect resistant, virus resistant, or herbicide tolerant. With these changes come some potentially problematic environmental challenges. |
