Take a moment to think about the places your soul has traveled! In other lifetimes, you had a different name and face, yet acquired valuable knowledge, learned soul lessons and experienced human existence as a physical being much different than you are now. Consider the things you must have learned during your time there – incredible things you might have discovered, invented, imagined, drawn or invested in as well as people you helped to heal, thrive and live a better life. These were all things that are possibly unknown to you in this life; however, they defined you in another era of time on Earth.

Many times, when we ponder reincarnation and past life knowledge, we think of healing physical, emotional and mental trauma. If we take up the frequency and tap into creative force energies, we will gain insight into so much more!

Amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life, do we ever stop to remember how good we have it? Do we ever stop to think about how lucky we are to live relatively normal lives in places that, at the surface at least, seem stable enough to support our work to create a new paradigm?

We’re all in a great position to create the inner and outer changes that need made, and we could go about our work with a sense of gratitude for our existence if we could see that, in a sense, everything is exactly the way it’s meant to be.

We have life, and every day we’re given on this Earth is a blessing that we should not only appreciate, but utilize to the fullest extent.

Only when we can learn to love life can we share our love with the rest of the world, and until we repair everything in our life that keeps us from enjoying or appreciating it, we’ll have trouble creating change in the world.

There are a lot of bad things to be said about this planet, but there are a lot of good things too. There are things here that most people don’t even realize are around, because they never get out and expand their horizons.

A landmark decision by the Kiwis sets a precedent that other countries should follow.

New Zealand has just set a great example to the world by recognizing what animal lovers have known forever- that our furry friends are as sentient as we are, and (obviously, dur) they have feelings just like we do. It’s a theme we have covered time and again here at True Activist, but this landmark ruling by NZ is the first time this shift in perception and policy has been extended to all animals, not just chimpanzees, orangutans, or dolphins.

Akon Lighting Africa is the name of the new initiative being taken on by rapper Akon to eventually provide solar power to 600,000,000 African people and build a foundation for future prosperity.

According to an article from The Root:

“Located in Bamako, Mali, the Solar Academy will help African engineers and entrepreneurs develop skills that will enable them to produce solar power. Experts will be on hand to help the participants with training and equipment,”

The academy’s stated goal is to give something to the African people that will not fade; lasting skills taught to the people and infrastructure that will yield more. The goal is to teach people how to maintain microgrids and solar-powered electricity systems. In rural Africa, this technology is becoming rapidly more prevalent.

A mother is often someone we take for granted as being nurturing, when in fact they can be anything but. There are emotionally unstable mothers, passionate mothers, embarrassing mothers, selfish mothers, overly human mothers, mothers who make mistakes, who always say the wrong thing, who are a little prickly or clumsy with their love, who seem detached, cold or are even outright cruel to US… Their children.

Sometimes mothers are entirely absent, parted by sorrow, misunderstanding or even death. Mothers are often a far cry from nurturing, and so, when needing to be nurtured, we can often feel strung out in the dark.

As if something has been severed from us but we’re not quite sure what. Like a phantom limb, our actions when we become mothers or are struck with the necessity to be nurturing ourselves, the gap can itch yet we feel lost as to how to deliver this kind of rare and divine love.

Herbs and plants are an integral part of the life that exists on our planet on every level. Plants are our food, our medicine, and also our catalysts to the expansion of our consciousness. Used since the days of old. Herbs are an essential part of our awakening journey. From ritualistic ceremonies and sweat lodges our ancestors knew how to “get high”.

Why do you think they call it “getting high”? Do you think “getting high” is just an expression used by people who smoke the maryjane?I really don’t think it is just an expression and there are many different types of natural herbs that can expand your consciousness. Natural herbs can lift you up and allow you to ride high into the cosmic consciousness.

These 5 plants can stimulate your consciousness and open you up to alternate dimensions of reality.

So go on, get high!!
