As if it wasn’t bad enough to have fracking operations in our backyards — destroying local ecosystems, human health and property values — the oil and gas industry has expanded into public lands, with many national parks now under threat. Not only does fracking for petroleum and natural gas promote ecological and climatic changes, but it also destroys the water we drink and the air we breathe. Not to mention the practice has been linked to an increase of earthquakes. Moreover, waste generated by the industry is exceptionally toxic and difficult to dispose of safely — to the point where municipalities are resorting to spraying it on roadways, and other acts of insanity. Keep in mind fracking fluid contains a slew of hazardous chemicals and is oftentimes radioactive.

Researchers looked at psilocybin’s impact on anxiety and depression.

Anxiety disorders top the list of America’s mental illnesses, affecting 18 percent of the U.S. population. Yet, according to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, only a third of its sufferers receive treatment for it. Meanwhile, the association reports that 3 to 5 percent of the population is dealing with depression at any given time—and nearly half of these people are also diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. According to a new study, the solution could come to some in the form of “magic” mushrooms.

The study, published recently in the journal Biological Psychiatry, adds to the growing pile of research that suggests psilocybin—the bioactive ingredient in psychedelic mushrooms—may have positive effects on mental health.

Dear Ones, if you have a love relationship that is making you feel very activated, know that feeling has occurred, not because the other person is bad or wrong, but because it is time to turn your love on yourself. What you will find as you move further and further into the new energies, is that the old templates of love no longer work. Expecting others to behave a certain way for your satisfaction and approval will be an exercise in futility. Rather, the focus is on unconditional love, both for yourself and for others. This means you will be letting others off the hook, so to speak, for your emotional happiness and finally taking the reins of self love and responsibility.

This is such a profound and pivotal shift, for it means that you have finally taken your power back and will be focusing on healing and loving yourself like never before. This will release you from the fear of the wild card of other people’s behaviour and create a solid, firm foundation of alignment and presence that will allow you to show up more fully and authentically than ever before. It will powerfully shift you from the energies of constant vigilance, judgment, frustration, and powerlessness to empowered acceptance because you will understand the change that is being sought is within you.

Many are calling him a genius. He is an artisan, locksmith and above all else, he explains, a beekeeper. He has accumulated over 4,300 Facebook followers, and 700 on Instagram, after the 39-year-old Frenchman — who describes himself as an advocate of medical cannabis and of complete cannabis legalization — trained bees to make honey from cannabis.

He goes by the nickname of Nicolas Trainerbees, for obvious reasons. For 20 years, he has worked with bees in a way he claims allows him to “train” them to make honey from virtually anything.

“I have trained bees to do several things, such as collect sugar from fruits, instead of using flowers,” he explains.

Misconceptions take root in our minds very easily. It takes a determined spirit to weed out all the brainwashing and programming we have taken on. Many people never question certain ideas or conceptions they have. They stop at the phrase itself without any further investigation, almost as though the phrase itself has some kind of magic that stops them from examining it. People need to be careful of confusing what is true with what they want to be true. Just because we all want to live in a just world doesn’t mean we actually do live in a just world. Great problems arise when we take our misconceptions and assert them as fact.

In a disturbing document, we learn how mind controlled ‘super spies’ were trained to kill against their will. The test subject in this case was afraid of guns and totally unwilling to pick one up in her normal waking state, but in her hypnotized state she was perfectly capable of picking it up and firing.

“A posthypnotic of the night before (pointed finger, you will sleep) was enacted. Misses [deleted] and [deleted] immediately progressed to a deep hypnotic state with no further suggestion.

God said:

If the world had one thing to say about you, what would you want it to be? What would you most of all want to hear the world say? What would you like to be able to say about yourself?

Now, your answer does not have to be holy. You are not required to give a holy answer such as: "He or she was a saint."

What you would like said about you is something you desire for yourself. It's possible you would be content with? Would you like to know that you mean more to myself than you had realized?

As you live your life, what would you most of all want to be said about you. What would it really be? Would you really want it to be said that you were the wealthiest person in the world? Or the smartest? Or the fairest of all? That you wore high-styled clothes? Found great bargains? Lived on a dime? Maybe you would. And that's okay.

Look, it is for you to choose really and not to be pretentious. It's fine if you would like: "She had beautiful brown eyes." This might really mean something to you. What We are looking for is something meaningful to you.

"I made hearts happy."

"People liked me."

"I lightened hearts."

"I looked right into people's eye."

"I made people laugh."

"I entered a room, and eyes lit up when they saw me."

"No one was more loved than I."

"I changed the lives of others."

"I was offered the Heavens."
