5 Life Lessons I Wish School Had Taught Me

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 08:50

Whilst school feels like a century ago, there are often moments I think back to my school days and ponder upon the things I wish somebody had taught me when I was younger. There are plenty of skills, information and general pieces of knowledge that should be taught in schools that would save a lot of stress, heartache and embarrassment in our later years. Whilst our wise owl teachers probably did pass on some nuggets of advice throughout our school years, it was very unlikely that we actually listened or realised how important it was. If I could add self-awareness and life lessons to the curriculum, here’s what I would teach:

1. Failures are okay

So in school, a fail is a bad thing, sometimes even an awful thing that you get told is going to affect your life forever. Sure, qualifications are important to get you onto the next stepping stone in life, but they aren’t the be-all and end-all. It’s okay to fail a test, or not be able to score that goal. Making mistakes is the only genuine way to learn and the sooner you realise that, the better. Accepting your mistakes is something everybody should be taught to do from a young age and that as long as you learn from them, you are doing okay.

The Modern Shaman: Fierce Love at the Frontier of Madness

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 08:47

Shamans and Revolutionaries don’t preach to the choir, where confirmation bias is high. They go where they are unpopular, to reach those not far from the next step into sanity.

But such sanity doesn’t feel like sanity at first. This is called a healing crisis. Healing crises get worse before they get better, but the result is deeper integration, wisdom, and wellness. But because healing crises are not pretty or tidy or conducive to business as usual, they are not so popular and thereby often thought worthless or irrelevant.

But nothing could be further from the truth.

The Unravelling

It’s hard not to see what’s going on. The imposed system is coming apart at the seams. I know the matrix is some metaphysical energetic thing of some sort, which doesn’t intimidate me in the least, but I’m talking about what’s front and center to our very lives.

It’s all disassembling, as plain as day. Politicians and disgusting paedopheliac oligarchs are being massively exposed for who they truly are despite mainstream media spin and cover ups; the economic paradigm is clearly being manipulated even though most folks are keeping it alive still playing on the rebound in their reactionary fear-based mindset, and the escape to safer places of all kinds continues to escalate on a wider and wider scale.

That only touches on the surface. Underneath the mainstream and even alternative narrative is a rumbling. The confusion and scrambling for a solid perspective is palpable. There’s a lot of finger pointing going on as to who or what is causing this confusion which is only adding to the condition.

How Walking In Nature Changes The Brain

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 08:35

The majority of people in the Western world live in busy, congested cities. Many of us have been completely cut off from nature in our day-to-day lives, especially compared to the generations before us. There have been many studies showing that city dwellers are much more likely to suffer from depression and other forms of anxiety than people who live in more natural, rural areas.

This may seem obvious to some, since the feeling we get from going for a walk through a park or forest, going camping, or just getting out of the city in general is so refreshing and generally very relaxing. But new research is proving just how important getting out of the city and into nature can be for our mental and physical well-being.

Scientific Studies Confirm: Aluminium Foil is Linked to Alzheimers

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 08:32

I’ve had a few conversations with people who say cooking with aluminium foil is completely fine. I wanted to believe that, but I couldn’t see how cooking with that kind of metal could be good. There is a demand for aluminium free products like deodorants, dyes, make up, food, and so much more for a reason; it shouldn’t be in anything we consume or put on us.

Aluminum is naturally occurring in the Earth’s crust. It exists in soil, plants and water, it’s something we can’t completely avoid, but we don’t need to be consuming it.

According to Health Canada, about 95 percent of our aluminum intake comes our from food but only 1 percent is actually absorbed into our bodies.

So is there really a problem here?

Studies show that food cooked in aluminium foil can contain up to more than six times the level of safety for consumption.

Chemical engineering researchers at the American University of Sharjah, found that a single meal cooked in aluminium can have up to 400mg of the metal in it.

The people who have made the most profound, positive, and lasting impression on your planet, are the ones who gave themselves permission to stand tall in their truth and authenticity. Many of these people came from very humble beginnings, and yet, from having the courage to stay true to themselves, ended up having a far greater impact than they could ever have dreamed possible. Dear Ones, don’t deny others the opportunity of seeing who you really are, for your authenticity is the greatest gift you can give the world. ~Archangel Gabriel

10 Brilliant Quotes From Martin Luther King Jr. That You Rarely Hear

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 07:37

Every year the United States celebrates the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Citizens of the world should not only reflect on his teachings every third Monday in January, but all 365 days of the year. The positive impact made by Dr. Kind can still be felt throughout the entire world almost 47 years after that fateful day in Memphis, a day that saw a modern day prophet transform into a martyr for peace. His words are still quoted and his contributions still resonate, not just in one community but for all of mankind. While it is impossible to rank the words of an orator known for his wisdom and insight, these are a few quotes that should not only be read but absorbed by all people around the world.

“We must be concerned not merely about who murdered them, but about the system, the way of life, the philosophy which produced the murderers .”

Day 106: Embrace All

Submitted by Galactic Free Press on Thu, 09/03/2015 - 07:29

EMBRACE ALL Love, like all emotions, has a unique energetic vibration. Every time a human reaches a new level of unconditional love, he also reaches a higher level of vibration. Your sense of loving others unconditionally increases. Eventually, you will see all others as equals, as siblings, none greater and none lesser. You will come to the understanding that each of you is a child of the Creator playing a unique role on Earth. You will begin to look into each other’s eyes and see a reflection of yourself and know that each person is a part of your Self.

You will better understand that you are truly Spiritual Beings having a human experience. What is important is that you seek to love all others as your most cherished sibling. No matter what culture, race or ethnic background, you all come from the same heavenly family. Once you can get beyond the barriers of separation and begin to live together in harmony, you will find that Earth is a paradise for all to enjoy in peace and love. Begin to see all others as an extension of yourself. See each experience that happens as a blessing and a lesson that has the ability to move you closer to Light and Love.
