An artist based in Los Angeles, California, creates masterpieces so rare and unique that the number of people that carry out this specific artwork can be attributed to just five individuals. The artist, named Jack Storms, creates his art by combining lead crystal and dichroic glass using a cold-glass process. He explained what separates him from other artists by stating, “What I do is I don’t use any heat at all, I grind and grind and grind and then I polish, that’s what separates me from everybody else. It’s much more difficult and it takes a lot more time. But for me the effects are just brilliant.”

Each piece of his specific artwork can take anywhere by 8 to 18 weeks to fully complete, but Storms explains that this is the effort and dedication that is required to create such masterpieces. An additional factor that sets Storms’s work apart from others is that, despite working with glass and crystal, he honours the natural world with each design by using the golden ratio, otherwise known as the Fibonacci sequence. This special ratio has been used in many famous creative designs, from the Mona Lisa to famous architectural structures.

Are you comfortable with silence? Could you sit in a restaurant with friends and not say a word, without feeling awkward? We talk all the time but we are not always saying anything of value. Sometimes we just talk because we think remaining silent is a bad thing. We fill up our day-to-day lives with noise, but do we ever take a break and just…be?

“Speak only if it improves upon the silence” – Mahatma Gandhi

Perhaps it would be wiser to talk less and say more. By immersing ourselves in moments of silence we can collect our thoughts and take a break from the noise. When our mind is quiet, we can think deeply and our inner voice is able to speak to us. It’s only in these precious moments do we experience our own divinity. There is a lot to learn from being still and quiet.

Aspects of our daily lives are filled to the brim with noise. The hectic commute to work, the never-ending list of things we still need to do and everything else in between. If we embrace our silence, perhaps we can alleviate some of our stress, even if it is just for a few moments. There is so much value and wisdom in being presence. We can learn so much about ourselves, as well as the world around us without the need to utter a single word.

Did you know? Even though there are now 100 peer-reviewed studies proving components of the cannabis plant — primarily cannabidiol (CBD) — can eliminate cancer, the herb is still classified as a Schedule 1 drug in the United States. Indeed, it’s in the same group as LSD, Heroin and Bath Salts — even though it’s killed 0 people in history.

Confusing as it may be, the misclassification hasn’t stopped the herb from being legalized for both medicinal and recreational purposes in the United States. In fact, as of June 2017, 29 states in the U.S. have legalized medical marijuana. Though use of the plant may still be considered taboo in some communities, it is losing its stigma as citizens learn about its variety of uses and medicinal benefits.

Following are 25 health benefits of marijuana that you won’t learn from mainstream media:

It is time to be free people! Here is why:

The are some very significant events that have been happening globally over the last few years, with things really ramping up over the last few months. Globally places that have consistently been oppressed are standing up and freeing themselves from their slave masters.

A lot of it looks like a mess, and truth be told it is- pharmaceutical companies are killing more people than they are saving. War is being sold for peace. Wage slavery is being put forward for freedom. Bankers are stealing our money. News companies are misinforming the public. Lawyers have become criminal. Public education for the most part is indoctrination. Political leaders cannot be trusted. Our food has become poison. Our water a commodity. Air is barely breathable. Sexuality has become taboo. Violence is okay, as long as they don’t look like us, and we have become more compartmentalised than ever.

Our environment is for sale. Even if the price is life itself. Slavery is still happening. Even in the developed world. Everything is for sale- including love or the illusion of love. People are dieing because of skin pigmentation and those of other skin pigmentation don’t know or don’t care. Beneficial natural substances are illegal. Addictive chemicals are freely available. Shelter is owned mostly by a very small group of people and the rest of us slave away to try to gain the stability of shelter.

Update: We received a message from the HeartMath Institute saying the spikes appear to have been an error: "We don’t know the exact cause of the spikes but believe they may have been caused by lightning. At the same time the spikes were recorded, we were making changes in the digital noise reduction filters which allowed energy from the spikes to be included in the Schumann power measurement giving a false reading."

There has been a spike in the power of the earth’s geomagnetic field affecting the schumann’s resonance: reaching a 15 month high.

According to a real time graph from Heart Math there has been a spike in the earth’s geomagnetic field, the data only goes back 1 year, but I managed to find data going back to April 2016, meaning it could actually go back further than 15 months.

The Spike

The spike was recorded by the Global Coherence Monitoring System from the Heart Math institute:

The Global Coherence Monitoring System has been in operation since 2015 and uses state-of-the-art sensing technology to detect changes in the earth’s magnetic field. They have 6 systems based in
