M.D. Ph.D. David R. Hawkins maps out the wonders of Kinesiology and the Hidden Determinants of Human Behavior. I've rarely been this excited about reading a book. Perhaps it is because I have been seeing a Healing Arts Practitioner who has helped me back on track with my health for the past year, using Applied Kinesiology. Even though it seems totally crazy the first few times I went, I soon learned that IT WORKS!
Your body has an intelligence of its own and you can ask it questions and get direct answers to any question. There is an underlying consciousness or truth inherent and present in all living things. We can have full access to this power purely by being aware of it and using simple modes of testing.
The book has the first map of consciousness that I've seen, which leaves enough inspiration for a lifetime of afterthought but the science behind this technique is thoroughly explained and offers a direct way for you to bring this power into your life. The truth it is there. It's yours already whether you use it or not.
This is my book recommendation for the month. An amazing journey through the ups and downs of film director/artist Alejandro Jodorowsky's spiritual quest. The great thing about this read is that it is about all the spiritual women that have influenced him on his spiritual path. Mr. Jodorowsky's way of describing his tormented inner life, mixed with the reality of his career and personal obstacles on his journey for enlightenment makes for a truly authentic and honest read. Not least scandalous and obscure.
I love that it is the most incredible women teachers who transforms his searching heart into a heart of knowing along with his faithful master, the Zen monk, Ejo Takata that is. Get it here.
I really enjoyed this BBC series made by Adam Curtis about the history and advancement of technology. All I can say is I AM NOT A MACHINE!! I AM NOT A MACHINE!! That is my mantra.
I am so happy to have come across this astonishing interview with Terence McKenna from October 1998, where he describes his Novelty Theory to director John Hazard. In the most comprehensible way describes his theory of why time seems to be accelerating, the Chinese I-Ching and its connection to our DNA like the blowing of wind.. to hyper-complexification, connectedness of all information, Archaic figures and their revival, the end of time (or our world as we know it) over to Shamanism, psychedelic substances and so forth. His views are radical but none the less presented in a factual convincing and believable way.
This interview is over an hour long, and gives you enough information for a years reflection, nevertheless it doesn't seem long enough to answer all the questions it raises. Sadly Terence McKenna is not around anymore. He died in 2000 of a brain tumor and this interview seems to have been one of his lasts. My sentiment is one of gratitude for his research, curious nature and accomplishments in his life on Earth.
It is indeed a sad and scary prospect that the planet is being sprayed with toxic substances and heavy metals like aluminum polluting the air, the water, nature and animals. Not to mention making us all ill!!
They called it Geo-Engineering to reduce Global Warming, but really it is a big cover-up to slowly reduce the population, gain more control, more power and ultimately to control all agriculture...
One question keeps forming on my tongue... WHY?
In who's interest is it to destroy our planet and the environment?
Can whoever is doing this really sit back and relax after they've ruined the earth and soil, seas and ecosystem and then enjoy themselves and their money and power..? Seems just utterly stupid and insane.
Next question that is forming on my tongue.. What can we do?
Spread the word. React - look up into the sky - ask questions - have meetings - demonstrate - make petitions and most importantly keep strong, healthy and alert.
Together we can move this ship around and free ourselves from the stronghold of these oppressors.
Pay homage to nature. Learn to live from the heart. It is where our future lies.
And keep growing organic crops.
This is one of the most exciting things I have come across in Peace Education.
Very inspiring and what a remarkably gifted and warm teacher John Hunter is.
My deepest respect and gratitude for his work.
I truly believe we (human) posses the ability to heal ourselves. I recently came across Reiki, a Japanese art of healing. It is a energy healing system founded by Dr. Mikao Usui. The origin of Reiki can be traced back thousands of years to the ancient cultures of India, Tibet, China and Japan. The technique was rediscovered in the mid 1800’s by Dr. Mikao Usui of Japan.
Reiki Founder, Dr. Mikao Usui
I came across Reiki because I woke up with severe back and neck ache the other day. The pain was so strong, I was stiff as a board and literally couldn't move. I panicked. I have tried this sensation once before, and then I was laid up in bed for two weeks on the heaviest pain-killers until the muscle spasms eased off and I was slowly able to re-gain normal movement without pain. After that I frequented a physiotherapist for six months before my neck felt normal again. So waking up with this kind of pain 4 years later, really scared me. I called my friend, Malin Landaeus who owns a vintage clothing store, and who also happens to be a Reiki Master. I was supposed to help her that day in the morning. So I called to let her know I couldn't make it as I literally couldn't move out of bed.
She was in her car when I called. She said in a calm voice. "Okay, I am going to drive to your house and give you Reiki." At that point. I just said. "Okay. great, thank you." hung up and thought, this will be interesting... I had no idea what to expect and I almost didn't believe that anything could help me at that point, but I was sure open to give it a try. Anything to get rid of this crazy, stiffness and pain.
So not long after Malin arrived. She asked me to lay on my stomach so she could sit comfortably at the end of the bed. She then placed her hands calmly on the back of the neck. I felt a tingling sensation pretty much the whole time as she moved her hands around very carefully. The session lasted about 40 min. And when she had finished I sat up slightly shaky and slowly realized I had full mobility in the neck. I turned my head slowly to the left, slowly to the right. And I couldn't believe it. She had cured me. For about two days after I was still sore in the neck region, but had full mobility and no pain. Furthermore I ended up going about my daily business that day as normal and felt really energized. In fact this life-force-energy stayed with me for about three days after. It felt like I had been touched by a miracle. And all she did was lay her hands softly on me.

Now I am exited to take her class: Reiki Level One this Spring.
I will recommend this practice to anyone seeking holistic healing. It is natural and so powerful.
And once you know how to do it you can not only easily heal yourself, but others too.
You can learn more by watching the many live demonstrations available on YouTube (Link to: expert village tutorial) and read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reiki
EFT... Another great way to beat stress and other emotional barriers holding you back from living the life that you want to live. I have only just come across EFT, but am already intrigued as to the remarkable results and heaps of people buzzing this simple tapping technique. Very exciting.

Watch a clip from the documentary about EFT healing, Tryitoneverything.com:
The world as we know it is collapsing. The economic system is a cancer for our planet.
The corporations have one thing and one thing only for eye: PROFIT.
They are not concerned with putting people, animals or the best of the planet first.
We have to stop them. Their obsession for financial expansion, growth and exhaustion of our natural resources cannot last. Only together can we stand up to them and say NO.
There is a fundamental problem with our system. And that is there is no real freedom.
Our liberty has been taken away from us. There is no place to opt out.
It makes me sick to my stomach. Where can I go? Where can I be free?
Please tell me?
The capitalistic consumerism system is polluting the air we breathe, the soil we get our food sources from, the sea and all the wildlife in it, our water supplies are poisoned and the health industries are filling us with pills we do not need. In fact it is in their best interest to keep us ill, so they can profit from our consumption of medical treatments.
Meanwhile governments and capitalistic corporations are keeping valuable knowledge about solutions and treatments from us. They control the media and the entertainment industry. It is insane.
We the people have to come together and demand our human rights and liberty.
It is time to wake up and stand together.
We have to demand a world where everyone is free.
A global world - One Earth - United - Loving and caring for each other.
It never seizes to amaze me what knowledge is out there. Today I spent the whole day learning about the Gerson Therapy, named after Max Gerson a German physician (1881–1959). He suffered from terrible migraine headaches through his early 20s and through dietary self-testing found a cure. To his astonishment he found that this dietary treatment also cured other illnesses, including many forms of cancer, diabetes, asthma, arthritis, high blood pressure etc.
I just watched close to 30 personal accounts of people who had been cured of cancer and other chronic, degenerative diseases, that the general authoritative medical industry had no cures for.
The Gerson Therapy is simple. Eat healthy organic produce as part of an all vegetarian diet. Cut out toxins and preservatives. Drink lots of juices (one every hour of the day) and take coffee enemas. That's it. What a wonderful, powerful cure straight from mother nature. (Be advised to seek professional help with this treatment from an authorized Gerson center though! )
All these people's testimonials have one thing in common, they were offered no solutions from the authoritative medical world other than pills, operations and chemotherapy, all of which offers no cure to cancer. It is unbelievable and sad that the ruling medical authorities do not acknowledge real holistic results. After all the health industry should be as much about promoting a healthy lifestyle and preventing illness as treating illnesses.
The Gerson Therapy is not recognized by the ruling medical world. In fact it is illegal in America according to wikipedia. That is why the Gerson Institute and treatment center is based in Mexico.
What does bureaucratic evidence matter when you have real people telling real stories of full recovery? And doctors have the before and after documentation, but still do not want to know about the treatment?
Is there some oath you take when you become a doctor to only support the corporate world and their medical products?
There is something fundamentally wrong with the way our world has developed. Profit and million dollar industries dictate the status quo. What happened to the people's best interests?
We need a total reformation of the medical practices. Lets say no to treating symptoms, i.e. numbing the pain. We want holistic treatments that look at us as a whole. Our bodies are complete bio-dynamic systems and the Earth and all the food that comes from it has an immediate effect our health.
If you pollute the air, the soil, the sea, the food we eat and the water we drink with deadly toxins of course we are going to get ill. Of course thousands of species and animals are dying everyday, including humans. We are part of the whole biosphere. We are part of nature, although we like to think ourselves above it.
Lets stand together and tell our governments and the corporations we do not want to eat food that is pumped full of toxins, additives and preservatives. We want organically grown vegetables that has all of the natural vitamins, minerals and enzymes that are good for us and keeps us healthy, provides well-being and longevity. Not just for us, but for the wildlife and planet too.
You can read more about the Gerson Therapy and the remarkable work of Charlotte Gerson, Max Gerson's daughter, who founded the Gerson Institute and work tirelessly to share information about the therapy and treat people at the Gerson center.
Below is a 6-hour talk by Charlotte Gerson about the Gerson Therapy. It is very informative although a long watch.
There is also a great more recent documentary film, called The Beautiful Truth available on YouTube.
I celebrated new years eve in the company of Patti Smith. She was playing at the Bowery Ballroom, a great venue in the Lower East Side. What a show. The concert got me so ecstaticly happy, I couldn't help but get a little too drunk. I was just glad from my feet to my brow I couldn't help it, honestly.
There is something about Patti. Her energi and honesty. Her poetry.
What a remarkable contribution to humanity's cultural heritage. She is a living icon, a woman (not least) and a New York darling. So glad I got to experience her magic. Even at the age of 65 she was at the top of her game.
Patti Smith is so God damned AMAZING. She is raw power, she is real, she is so rock n roll and inspiring beyond words. She is such a beautiful poet and human being. Musically it was a brilliant journey, great band and wonderfully song by Patti with small anecdotes from the every day life delivered with lots of POWER TO THE PEOPLE moments.
If there was ever a book on my wish-list this is it... JUST KIDS
