Ascend Academy: Way of the Empath pt. 1
Water makes up a large portion of the human body. It also makes up 71% of the Earth’s surface, not to mention the clouds and vapors in the air. Physically, it is essential for life and provides a great deal of maintenance, healing, and balance for any ecosystem. Spiritually, it acts as an archetype for the flow of emotional energy through the astral plane and human energy system.
In the Way of the Empath, our consciousness shifts it’s attention away from the notions of separation, protection, and stability inherent in the Earth-inspired Way of the Sentinel. Instead, we move the awareness towards the fluidity, balance, and emotion of the Water element. The skills present in the Way of the Empath are all about flow, feeling, healing, and the direction of energy in a positive and harmonious manner.

The Shocking Truth About the Meat Industry
There are many reasons to switch to grass-fed beef. For example, I’ve discussed the nutritional differences between organic pastured beef and that from animals raised in confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs) on many occasions.
Here, I will focus more on the current farming model, which is what makes CAFO beef such an inferior product in the first place, and the regulatory restrictions that sometimes make grass-fed meats hard to come by in the US.
Our food system is in dire need of change in order to protect human health, but it’s a system that is difficult to change. It’s not impossible, but it will require more people to change their shopping habits in order to drive up demand, and hence the industry’s resolve to address the shortcomings.

Truth Revealed
The true purpose of a whisper is to affirm the presence of truth within us.
Beyond the mind and beliefs, a whisper awakens our inner intelligence, allowing us to feel its presence within us.
Truth is not remembered with the mind. It is felt within the presence of our beingness.
Silence reveals all truth in our being and, like a calm ocean, we see our true reflection without the distortion of waves.
Meditation places our attention within the silence of our beingness.
Namaste.

Transcending Personality: How to Become a ‘Nobody’
“Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth” – Alan Watts
Personality is defined as, “The set of emotional qualities, ways of behaving, etc., that makes a person different from other people; attractive qualities that make something unusual or interesting,” (Merriam-Webster Dictionary).
In theory this sounds great… right up our ego’s alley. To have qualities or behaviors that make us UNIQUE, DISTINGUISHABLE, and DIFFERENT from other people sounds like the perfect recipe to reinforce our separateness from others.
But is our personality who we really are? And who or what decides what our “personality” is? Since our perspective of ourselves may be vastly different than another person’s perspective of us, who would be the correct one if we were trying to define our specific “personality”?

5 Spiritual Practices That Will Transform Your Life!
By Steven Bancarz
Practice 2: Go Into The Now
Its so easy to allow thinking to suck up all of our attention to go through an entire day just daydreaming. As convincing and enticing our thoughts may be, the truth is that thought has no essential reality. Thoughts are just voices that arise in our minds, and almost all of them are dedicated to past or possible future situations which don’t actually exist in reality. If you all of a sudden couldn’t speak English, you wouldn’t understand anything your mind was telling you, and you would probably be the most peaceful you have ever been. What does this tell us about the nature of the voices in our head? That they only have power over our emotions when we give reality to them.
