With evidence growing that training the mind or inducing specific modes of consciousness can have beneficial health effects, scientists have sought to understand how these practices physically affect the body. A new study by researchers in Wisconsin, Spain, and France reports the first evidence of specific molecular changes in the body following a period of intensive mindfulness practice.

The study investigated the effects of a day of intensive mindfulness practice in a group of experienced meditators, compared to a group of untrained control subjects who engaged in quiet non-meditative activities. After eight hours of mindfulness practice, the meditators showed a range of genetic and molecular differences, including altered levels of gene-regulating machinery and reduced levels of pro-inflammatory genes, which in turn correlated with faster physical recovery from a stressful situation.

Norway Creates World’s First ‘Bee Highway’ To Save Endangered Pollinators

Over the last years, the population of bees has been dramatically decreasing all over the world. According to the 2014 annual survey by the US Department of Agriculture, American beekeepers reported that more than two out of five of their colonies had died, meaning that the bee population has declined by 40-60% since April 2014.

It’s quite a disturbing trend, considering the consequences of bee extinction for humans and the world. Bees pollinate 70% of the food we eat and are vital to the ecosystem. A world without bees would be a world without fruit, vegetables, nuts and flowers. Not the best place to live in, actually.

Why do bees die? As in the case of nearly all environmental problems, it’s all human activity. Most scientists agree that intensive agriculture and the use of chemicals and pesticides in farming are the most probable cause of the decrease in the bee population.

Pollution isn’t only a concern when you’re outdoors—it’s a concern in your home as well. From the carpet on the floor to the cleaning products you might use, there are numerous contaminants that could be infiltrating your domicile. Ideally you would replace these toxic substances with less toxic counterparts, but that isn’t always practical. Fortunately, research has shown certain houseplants to have air-purifying effects that can make it easier to breathe while beautifying your surroundings.

Researcher Kamal Meattle is an environmental advocate and air quality innovator in his native India. There, he advocates for “massive banks of plants instead of massive banks of HVAC equipment” for cleaning the air. He and others interested in natural air-cleaning methods have identified several plants that are great for removing toxins, including carcinogens from the air.

5 Critical Reasons To Add Nutritious Hemp Seeds To Your Diet

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Fri, 10/02/2015 - 08:32

Hemp can be used for almost literally countless things, from building homes to the remediation of contaminated soil. In terms of nutrition, there are 5 specific reasons to keep hemp seeds stocked in your pantry. They are a nutritious power-house that should not be overlooked. In fact, many experts call hemp one of the most nutritionally complete food sources in the world. Read on to find out why:

Health Benefits of Hemp Seeds – Full of Health-Boosting Fatty Acids

These health boosting fats include alpha-lineoleic acid (ALA), a variety of Omega-3 fat, as well as Omega-6. These are ‘essential’ fatty acids, which we need to survive, but that the body does not make, so we must obtain them from our diets.

LA, LNA and the highly unsaturated fatty acids the body makes from them, are necessary in the most active energy and electron exchanging and oxygen requiring tissues; especially the brain, retina, inner ear, adrenal and testicular tissues. They carry the high energy required by the most active tissues, and ensure very high oxygen availability to them. Life force travels through the body via the essential fatty acids and their derivatives.”

Using other people’s successes or abundance to amplify your feelings of lack amounts to holding your breath because you can see other people breathing. There is more than enough for everyone, Dear Ones, and if success is around you it is because it is aligning with you, too. ~Archangel Gabriel

Sun in Libra moving forward in Venus’ airy sign forms a cardinal t-square with Uranus and Pluto this week, and Sun clashing with the two outer titans of change is only the beginning of the tense aspects in the heavens currently forming. Mars and Venus form tough squares to Saturn, and Mars-Venus and Jupiter also oppose the idealistic, illusory Neptune. The strain, effort, and work that the hard aspects (oppositions, squares) demand also suggest the greatest opportunities to productively move forward with various personal and professional goals.

Mars and Jupiter conjunct in Virgo this week, which is of interest in itself…and additionally the pair forms a strong trine to Mars’ overlord, Pluto, in Capricorn. Tangible, detail-oriented action describes Mars in Virgo, who receives a boost from his overlord, Pluto (energy flows well with raw power). Additionally, Jupiter expands the Mars-Pluto planetary pair. What a potent trio! Do all of the tense aspects in the heavens stand a chance of restraining the earthy force of Mars, Jupiter, and Pluto combined? Sharp perspectives and competitive activity help to push objectives forward this week, particularly useful in expanding interests in work and career.

This Is Wisdom – to Laugh!

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 10/01/2015 - 22:16

God said:

Have you noticed that sometimes wisdom comes from those you might call fools? Being a fool is not always such an errant thing. Everyone should be a fool at sometime or another in his or her life. Be a fool, and laugh about it. This is wisdom.

Of course, everyone’s definition of fool is not the same. Someone who takes advantage of another thinks the one taken advantage of is the fool. I see it differently. There may be a fool in a particular situation, and there may be a fool who is a trickster in the whole range of his life. On whom would you rely? The identified fool or the clever one?

Everyone has been what is termed a fool in his life. Even saying the word fool tends to make you blush. Sometimes it seems you would rather be anything than a fool. What is so bad about being a fool? Most of the Great Ones were looked on as fools. Who is the fool? The one sneered at or the one who sneered?

How you are looked at isn’t to rule your day. Must the views of others be all that be so important to you? Look at yourself through My eyes. And be sure that you yourself look at others through My eyes as well.

Oh, yes, there are worse things than being a fool. In fact, there are wise fools. Simple is good. Simplicity gets right down to the basics. There is nothing pretentious about fools.

To worry about anything is foolish, yet worry keeps bobbing up on the surface of life. Once worry has you in its thrall, it holds you. Worry wouldn’t exist if it were not for you. Yet you may have the idea that it is wise to worry.
