Truth Seeking: A Calling Far Greater Than Our Subjective Experience. By Tim Bryant.

We are smack dab in the middle of a polarizing battle for power in society, between the established systems of elitism that aim to control society for their own agenda and ordinary people who seek freedom and justice through decentralization of power. Although no mainstream media outlet would touch this subject with a ten-foot poll, the reality is that there exists a cancerous ideology among the controlling elite, which propagates the notion that they must control the population for the greater good of us all. There is a surplus of hard data that is both proven and readily available to back up this claim. Although it might sound sensational, the simple truth is that the power elite view mind control as the best way to control the social hierarchy and achieve “peace.” This is not a new battle, as all throughout time there have been constant clashes between the egotistical elites who believe that society is best off when the enlightened leaders are building it, and regular people who

15 Best Essential Oils And Their Health Benefits. By Dr. Edward F. Group.

Essential oils, also called volatile oils, are scented oils extracted from plants. Historically, they’ve been used in medicine, cosmetics, perfumes, food, and, more recently, aromatherapy. Essential oils are “essential” because they contain the “essence” of the plant.[1] Not only are essential oils popular, they have legitimate therapeutic uses and the science to back them up.[2] Although the exact benefit depends on the oil in question, some have antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects. Others can affect cognitive function, mood, and memory. Some can even help alleviate stiff, sore muscles and joints. Some essential oils can be applied to the skin, others are best taken orally. However – and this is important – do not ingest or topically apply any essential oils unless you are absolutely certain that they can be used this way. Not all essential oils are safe to take internally and some can irritate the skin. Essential oils are a concentrated source of many phytochemicals and s

A Love Letter To Humanity. By Lissa Rankin.

Dear Human, Once upon a time, in a pool of vast rich darkness, Consciousness became aware of itself as an energy of love. For a while, it was enough to just be Conscious in this dark, full vastness of pure love. Consciousness itself was breathtaking—or it would be, if only Consciousness had breath. But as this artificial thing called “time” passed, Consciousness craved a deeper experience of itself. So Consciousness created matter, and the cosmos was born. Oh, what a field day the Divine Goddess Consciousness had creating the energy of love in physical form! Like a fairy godmother with a magic wand, Consciousness created Earth from a cosmic soup that sprung to life in the form of rainforests dripping with dew, oceans teeming with sea creatures, a daytime sky bursting with cumulus clouds and decorated with hummingbirds and a nighttime sky glistening with stars. Consciousness was so delighted with this playful past time of creation that it kept creating more and more matter. Dinosaurs

If Your Boss Is Dolores Umbridge – 4 Spiritual Tools For the Workplace. By Juliet Tang.

I must not tell lies! For anyone who is familiar with J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, Dolores Umbridge is undoubtedly one of the most unforgettable characters that leaves us cringing; the kind we pray we’ll never run into in our own lives. She embodies all of the qualities most of us attempt to deny and reject in life – she is cruel, sadistic, prejudiced, manipulative, spiteful, corrupt, the list just doesn’t end. Umbridge essentially represents the shadow of our consciousness; she is so despicable that we will do anything to not be like her. She is the shadow we love to hate. Most of us have encountered an Umbridge at some point in our journeys. More often than not, she (or he) is that person who holds power over us, rendering us feeling helpless and enraged. On many occasions, my friends and clients have complained about an Umbridge-type boss that is making their lives as fun as imprisonment in Azkaban (the worst prison imaginable). Having had my share in the past, I only k

The Easiest Strategies to Avoid Overeating.

Listen, we’ve all been there. We’ve overindulged and lived to regret it. One too many glasses of wine and you feel like absolute garbage the next day. A sliver of chocolate cake that turns into 3 slices—bring on the guilt and remorse. Tacos at 2 a.m.? Sure, why not. And then of course, we wash it all down the next morning with Bloody Marys, our go-to hair of the dog. In the past, I treated social gatherings as an excuse for an all-out binge sesh that left me feeling bloated, ashamed, and hungover the next morning. I then spent the next few days restricting my diet and punishing myself with exercise just to get the bloating down. I feel you. And I also know how frustrating it can be to feel like you aren’t in control of your cravings or how much you indulge. I know what it feels like to finally get on track with your nutrition, and then feel like a failure when it all goes to pieces in the blink of an eye. I work regularly with clients looking for moderation and balance–who want to

How to Know When to Quit Something and Actually Feel Good About It.

No Regrets With Susie Moore “But am I allowed to do that?” my client asked during an (emotional) life-coaching session. “Allowed? What do you mean allowed?” I asked, answering a question with a question. “But… I mean… I started. Don’t I have to… finish the damn thing?” she asked, angst-ridden and confused. “I don’t know. Do you?” I responded again. My client is an entrepreneur who spent every waking moment of three years and hundreds of thousands of dollars developing an app that, before it could be released, had been created, improved upon, and made ubiquitous by multiple, larger competitors. Her idea was original three years ago, but since her initial concept, the market had advanced, and her business was no longer viable. But, like a dog with a bone, she refused to give up. In many cases, this can be a rockstar quality. But in this particular situation, her ship had sailed. It had already made its way onto millions of smartphones without her. Her investors knew it.
