How do we thrive once we’re awake, in a society that is designed to keep us asleep? Our world is designed purposefully to keep us distracted and disconnected from each other.

Who ever heard of a world where when you get on a bus, you could have awesome group conversations with all the passengers. Or just walking down the street, you see and feel your inherent connection with everyone and can freely communicate with ease. In this world, there is a deep understanding that we are one, so no one is a stranger; we are all aspects of each other.

Until we collectively exist in that reality, you can:

1. Learn

Study, research, inquire and explore. What are the topics that you’re drawn to? Within the realm of spirituality, there are so many subjects to get information on. Aliens, chakras, energy, universal laws, human connection, even science and technology are ‘spiritual’ topics.

TAKE TIME TO MAKE TIME   Greetings! We are happy to have this time with you. Please understand that we know your life at times is very difficult and that you have time burdens. Yet in truth, there is no time. Humans create deadlines as a means to ensuring a job gets done, yet all it creates is stress.

There is much stress involved in waking up at a certain time, getting to work, getting the children off to school, eating lunch at a specific moment, returning from lunch, finishing chores before you get off work, getting to church, meeting friends for dinner, making it to the movies on time, getting to the store before it closes, postponing fun until the weekend or retirement and the list goes on.

How can you find balance in a world filled with deadlines? You could begin by taking an inventory each time you look at your watch or clock. Begin to notice the things you do that involve being somewhere at a specific time. Also, notice your relationship to time. Do you feel anxious if you are running late?

Do you rush through other activities to be sure you get to the next location on time? Are you enjoying the moment or fixated on the future? Begin to find ways you can simplify your life, if you are feeling rushed all the time. There are many things that can be left undone or are not yours to do in the first place. Let others be responsible for the things they choose to do.

We recommend using lemon eucalyptus oil in the mix.

Commercial insect repellents are so incredibly toxic with dangerous chemicals such as DEET (diethyltoluamide). As an Earthie Mama I want to make sure that my children only have the most natural ingredients on their skin. While living in Costa Rica, I had to figure out how to protect my family naturally from the overwhelming amounts of bugs.

Today I will share with you how simply you can make your own bug-away spray.

Diet Pepsi sales have been slumping for quite some time, and with the ongoing health awareness movement causing major pain for other purveyors of unhealthy foods and drinks, it seems as if Pepsi has finally seen the writing on the wall.

The multi-billion dollar soda company announced recently that they’re ditching aspartame, the oft-used but increasingly unpopular sweetener that’s been linked to serious health problems.

According to Pepsi executives, the new drink will hit store shelves this August, will taste the same as the old one, and will also proudly proclaim “Now Aspartame Free” on the can.

Last month, Australia became the world’s first country to ban the import or export of lion trophies, often taken from so-called canned hunting where lions are raised solely to be shot by foreign hunters.

“These new rules mean that if you go overseas and engage in the appalling act of canned hunting, you can forget about bringing your lion trophies back to Australia,” said Greg Hunt, Australia’s Environment Minister. “You don’t deserve the right to celebrate the slaughter of these amazing creatures.”

Before I get started, I would like to introduce myself, my name is Jocelyn Daher. Unlike all of the other articles I have written for Spirit Science, this article is completely personal to my specific perception and journey. Instead of a to-do list or a numbered logical explanation of something I have learned to do by feeling, it just made more sense to open up to my honest process. For some this article will be exactly what they need to hear and will allow them to relate in their own ways to their childhood or intuitive processes. I am sure in this dualistic reality, that some would like a more structured and less personal account on how to access these innate gifts. Since each one of us as the apertures of the universe of diverse perspectives has a different view and experience. I am just forewarning you that this article is my opinion and personal account of how I have accessed these abilities, not a step by step guide; although it should ignite your specific remembering. So without further adieu, I can only hope my story will reach the singuality within each one of us. Gratitude for your patience and understanding.

California is slowly fading into desert land. The fight to save the state's water resources has begun at the state level. Governor Jerry Brown recently imposed a 25 percent mandatory restriction on urban water use. This takes effect in July 2015.

This is only the beginning of large scale rationing efforts across the state. Before Brown signed the mandatory water restriction, 26 California water districts were planning to ration water imported into the state. This drastic measure has only happened twice before. A vote is expected soon as the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California weighs their conservation options throughout the state.

Nestle exports California water for profit as locals are forced to ration

As 26 water districts begin to ration imported water, the Nestle Corporation is busy extracting spring water 85 miles east of Los Angeles, California. From there the precious water is bottled and exported for sale around the world. In fact, Nestle owns Arrowhead Mountain Spring Water, a 383,000 square foot bottling plant located on the Morongo Band of Mission Indian reservation. This plant also packages purified water for their Nestle Pure Life brand.
