Researchers have long suggested a link between the gut-brain axis and neuropsychiatric disorders such as autism, depression, and eating disorders. Using probiotics and prebiotics to alter the gut microbiota and influence the gut-brain axis may open up new ways of influencing neuropsychological conditions, says a new review.

The majority of the science for probiotics has focused on gut health, but as the understanding of the gut and the microbiome increases, probiotics are increasing linked to a range of beneficial effects, from weight management to immune support and allergy response, and from oral health to cholesterol reduction.

The gut contains microorganisms that share a structural similarity with the neuropeptides involved in regulating behavior, mood, and emotion–a phenomenon known as molecular mimicry.

Why Did Our Ancestors Inter This Ancient Massive Architectural Wonder?

Located at the highest point of the Germus range in the southeastern Anatolia region of Turkey is the mysterious site of Göbekli Tepe. Excavations at Göbekli Tepe commenced in 1995 after German archaeologist Klaus Schmidt realized what was thought to be a Byzantine cemetery was actually a prehistoric site. Schmidt quickly unearthed a number of T-shaped pillars, which set the archeological world ablaze. It was not only the discovery of this ancient massive and magnificent location but also what researchers determined to be the period of its construction. Samples taken placed the earliest parts of the edifice during the Pre-Pottery Neolithic A Period some 12,000 years ago.

Do you believe you deserve comfort? Ease? Or do you still believe that struggle is necessary to earn things first? It is not Source that decides what you deserve, Dear Ones, it is you. Then the universe lovingly agrees and supports whatever you declare for yourself. How wonderfully simple and empowering the system is! ~Archangel Gabriel

My love, it is time to release the need to hide……from yourself, from others, from uncomfortable situations, people and things. Only when you face them head on, will YOU be able to step into who you are. ~ Creator

CHOOSE LOVE   There are many signs that allow you to know when you are on the best path, leading to what you choose, whether those choices are conscious or unconscious. These include a feeling of knowingness, when everything easily falls into place, luminosity (when things seem to glow), goose bumps, extraordinary happenings, coincidences and synchronicities, to name a few.

Choose love in all situations. If love seems to be too far out of your reach, focus on kindness, to yourself and others. Be in joy. Seek the advice of others who have surpassed what you are grappling with. Take time to meditate, turning your life into one continual prayer of thanksgiving and gratitude. Look for the positive in all things. Do what brings joy to your heart and increases the passion for those things you love. Be prepared to share your hope and messages of love with others who are willing to listen. For those who are not ready, simply hold love in your heart and know that it will be felt on a level they can receive.   Selamet  Etznab 11

With every New Moon and Full Moon alignment that takes place, there is always an important message that reflects to us where we are in our current evolution and exactly how we are evolving and changing at an energetic level.

When I look at the New Moon cycle and the configurations of the planets and the aspects and angels they are making to each other, I am becoming increasingly aware of the magnitude of the events taking place right now. As these planetary alignments are intensifying and huge shifts are taking place in our perception and our vibration, I am compelled to share with you how I am seeing these changes reflected in the skies — although in truth, there are not enough words available to describe what is taking place at this unparalleled point in our evolution…

This infographic created by Jason at Frugal Dad shows that almost all media comes from the same six sources.

That’s consolidated from 50 companies back in 1983.

NOTE: This infographic is from last year and is missing some key transactions. GE does not own NBC (or Comcast or any media) anymore. So that 6th company is now Comcast. And Time Warner doesn’t own AOL, so Huffington Post isn’t affiliated with them.

Your heart is meant to take leaps for joy every day, every minute.

How much is life – your life – worth to you without enthusiasm?

What makes you happy?

Often the little things.

What are the little things that make you happy? Little things are big things in the life of a human being. And you are a human being.

Command your intention every day to enjoy!

Of course, finding joy can’t be orchestrated. In this case then, have the intention to keep your eyes out for joy. Keep your heart open for joy. Anticipate joy today. Hooray for joy!

I would invite you to say to yourself every day:

“Joy is mine today. My joy gives God joy.”

Off the top of your head today, what could bring you even a little happiness? Someone smiles at you, perhaps? Someone or something gives you some unexpected joy. You find a $100.00 bill on the street, and there is no one to claim it. You find your lost diamond ring when you are planting a flower. You hear from a long-lost friend. It is a beautiful night. The stars are out and blinking at you. Your child hugs you. The sun is shining. The air smells good. You hear some music you like.

What are the myriad events that could happen for you today that would make your heart light up and your eyes bright?

Excuse Me, dear ones, is there an end to the list of good moments that you can think of? Can it be that little happiness-making events are also Infinite?
