Have you ever noticed the voice in your head that doesn’t stop talking? It’s busy judging people and things, forming opinions, and commenting on everything that happens. It keeps nattering about things that happened in the past or might happen in the future. In fact, we all have this inner voice in our heads, whether we are conscious of it or not.

When life is lived with little or no awareness of the “voice in the head” it becomes completely driven by this voice. Eventually you can believe that the voice in the head is who you are. You may believe you’re the one who’s talking and having a say about everything, but perhaps this is not so. What if the voice in your head is not actually generating your own thoughts?

Our sense of smell is the only sense that is directly tied to the limbic area of the brain, which is considered the emotional control center. And when we inhale essential oils they go directly to the brain. The other four senses — taste, sight, touch and hearing — are first routed through the thalamus before reaching designated areas of the brain.

Therapeutic-grade essential oils can have amazing psychological and physiological effects since the limbic system is directly connected to parts of the brain that control blood pressure, heart rate, breathing, stress levels, memory, and hormone balance. Every essential oil has therapeutic calming, sedative, stimulating, and balancing properties. The inhaled molecule of the essential oil travels through the nasal passage to a receptor neuron that transports it up to the limbic brain, particularly the hypothalamus. The limbic center in the brain controls all the physical, psychological, and emotional responses that the body performs based on stimuli that come from the outside. Therefore, the capacity of essential oils to target the limbic center makes them a powerful tool in the treatment of many health diseases.

Releasing your attachment to how things should look or be is one of the most helpful things you can do in your enlightenment process.

When you become attached to an outcome, you can become resistant to any other potential. This can be extremely limiting to you, as the universe and your highest self often have a far grander plan than you could ever imagine for yourself.

The problem with becoming rigidly opposed to anything other than your plan is that, in itself, creates a resistance to the flow. Surrender and flow are, of course, the means to your next greatest creations.

Trust, Dear ones! Again we say allow the universe to serve and delight you. Open yourselves up to the magic and wonder that is the specialty of the flow, and know that it will always deliver your highest result, often beyond your wildest dreams. Remember, the joy of a surprise is that it is something you couldn’t have expected. ~Archangel Gabriel

New rules implemented by the European Union now allow individual member states to block farmers from using GM organisms, even if the variety has been approved on an EU-wide basis. As TrueActivist shared before, Scotland was quick to take up that opportunity.

To “preserve the country’s clean and green brand,” Scotland chose to ‘opt out’ of growing GMO crops. And now, Germany is following suit.

As Independent.UK reports, Germany has begun taking the steps necessary to ban the use of all genetically modified (GM) crops.

As the public becomes increasingly more educated on topics concerning health and sustainability, more and more people are beginning to take action by choosing to consume more natural, wholesomely produced food.

But as the US government has operated largely by giving farmers subsidies to grow genetically engineered crops – most of which is used to support animal agriculture – it is now in a tough spot of striving to meet consumer demand for organic produce and keep the old system afloat.

As evident in Bloomberg’s recent report, big shifts are underway:

“Most of the corn and soybean shipments become feed for chickens and cows so they can be certified organic under U.S. Department of Agriculture guidelines. Organic poultry and dairy operators shun feed made from Monsanto Co. and other domestic suppliers in favor of foreign products even as the U.S. remains the world’s top grower of corn and soybeans. As a result, importance to the United States of Romanian corn rose to $11.6 million in 2014 from $545,000 the year before. Soybean imports from India more than doubled to $73.8 million.”

Note that avocado trees generally do best in places with mild winters. A green house may be needed for them to produce in colder climates.
