HJ: Your level of happiness has everything to do with how you think, how you perceive yourself and how you approach life.  Happiness, then is learned.  And that is liberating.  Because if you can learn it, then there is really nothing stopping you from learning to be even more happy right now…

“He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much.” ~Bessie Anderson Stanley

Love. Purpose. Selflessness. 

That’s it. Everything I’ve learned about happiness lies in those three words.

Why those words?

Because in their absence it’s hard to be happy. Your mind wanders and sets...

YouTube was once a bastion of free speech, an open venue where alternative information could circulate and wake up millions worldwide. Now it’s increasingly a place where truth is suppressed, as YouTube’s 6 billion+ hours of content is ‘soft censored’ on the sly by its mysterious ‘safety mode’. Keep reading if you prefer watching liberating information to mindless entertainment.

It seems that Youtube doesn’t care about your awakening.

With so many hours of freely available information to watch, you might think that Youtube is a great platform to spread and defend the truth. But increasingly we are seeing restrictions on the types of videos that YouTube welcomes, even when they don’t breach Youtube’s published communit...

Dear Ones, flow is absolutely essential to your spiritual growth and wellness. It is the way your soul navigates its way to your next great experience and adventure. If you are around people who are unsafe for you, in that their behaviour is unpredictable, abusive, unsupportive, neglectful, dismissive, controlling or in any way unsupportive or unloving, you will naturally become guarded and self protecting, which will absolutely knock you out of flow. Love yourselves enough to create an environment that is safe, nurturing and supportive in order to expand, connect, and BE in the way your soul craves. Your life […]

EMOTIONS   When you are sad, there will come a time when you will say, “Enough of this sadness, I am going to change my attitude and behaviors so I can experience happiness.” Thus, the sadness leads you to your desired goal of happiness. At times, it feels good to express sorrow or pain, for within these emotions, you are connecting to others on a very deep level, which has love as a foundation. We suggest you pay attention to your emotions as they arise. Do they have a message for you to pay attention to? Are they a means to express your love for self or others? Take time today to meditate on ways you can maintain your balance by role-playing various scenarios that are likely to occur. For instance, if there is someone at work that you dislike and everyday their presence makes you upset, look at ways you can change your attitude and behavior so you do not lose your balance. Role-play things to say and do when you encounter this person. Send heart-to-heart love connections, even if at first they feel phony. With practice, there will come a moment when you will accept this person unconditionally. It is not unusual for these relationships to develop into deep friendships, for you will have connected at a soul level, one beyond the bounds of judgment and criticism. Pay attention to your emotions, for they are your greatest teachers! Selamet!

Many arrows point to the bee decline. A Harvard professorrecently warned that Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) is only the beginning for us. The ripple effect from new classes of pesticides is just getting started.

But there’s more…

The problems they face can be compared to a kaleidoscope, where the shapes are layered, interconnected, many and morphing.

It’s not only pesticides that lead to pollinator death – it’s more. It’s other things, the combination of things, thought to be harmless to bees and to humans.
