Today’s Use of Technology: How Far Is Too Far?
(Helen Lyle) In today’s society, technology has enhanced our interactions to a more efficient level. But it has created a sense of urgency when things aren’t as quick as we want them to be, and our psyches have become used to that ‘immediate gratification’ mentality.
Toxic Water: How Surface Mining is Poisoning Our Wells
(Will Justice) Imagine your home’s water was rust-orange and smelled like rotten eggs. Every time you showered or washed your hands, you got rashes and dry skin.
This Is Your Body (and Brain) on Gluten
(Kelly Brogan, M.D.) “You should consider eliminating all gluten and dairy from your diet for 3 months.” Gulp. Those words hung in the air like an alien spacecraft hovering between us. When I had the good sense to consult a naturopath after my diagnosis with postpartum thyroiditis, this was the backbone of her recommendation to me. To me, as a psychiatric fellow, 9 years into my medical training, gluten had no relevance to the non-celiac population.
The Science of Yin Yoga
(Jessica Humphries) The long-held, deeply restful postures of Yin Yoga provide a welcome contrast to the more dynamic, Yang dominated practices that are popular in the modern, Western world. A remedy to our fast-paced lifestyles, Yin is a practice that encourages people to slow down–immersing in the kind of stillness that can lead to the expansion of consciousness.
The Five Fears All Humans Share — How the Deep State Uses Fear Against Us
(Justin Deschamps) Fear is an ancient emotion that has a great power to change our state of consciousness. Fear helps us identify threats and draws our attention to things so we can gain knowledge about them. But when we can’t channel the energy of fear productively, this emotion can breakdown causing us a lot of problems. The Deep State know this, and they use fear as a tool of control. But with self-knowledge, you can defend yourself by learning how to control your fears.
The Science Behind Comfort Food: Why We Reach for Chocolate or Potato Chips Depending on Our Mood
(Zoey Sky) According to research, the concept of “comfort food” isn’t a one-size-fits-all scenario. You may want some chocolate if you’re feeling sad, but another person will reach for a bag of potato chips when they fail a test at school.
Another Reason to Choose Organic over Processed: Consuming Raw Fruits and Veggies Is Linked to Better Mental Health Outcomes
(Ellaine Castillo) Countless evidence proves the importance of eating fruits and vegetables. Unfortunately, many of these studies fail to consider the effects of various food processing techniques like cooking and canning on their nutritional content and benefits. Recently, a team of researchers from the University of Otago in New Zealand has found that the consumption of raw fruits and vegetables leads to better mental health outcomes compared to their processed counterparts.

How the Corruption of Science is Contributing to the Collapse of Modern Civilization
(Richard Gale and Gary Null Ph.D.) This year will likely mark another milestone in science and medicine. Again, Americans will spend more money on diagnostic tests, surgeries and other medical procedures, and patients will consume more drugs and receive more treatments than any other time in US history.
Herd Immunity: A False Rationale for Vaccine Mandates – Are Unvaccinated Children Really Dangerous?
(Children’s Health Defense) Herd immunity is a largely theoretical concept, yet for decades, it has furnished one of the key underpinnings for vaccine mandates in the United States. The public health establishment borrowed the herd immunity concept from pre-vaccine observations of natural disease outbreaks. Then, without any apparent supporting science, officials applied the concept to vaccination, using it not only to justify mass vaccination but to guilt-trip anyone objecting to the nation’s increasingly onerous vaccine mandates.
Health Basics: Understanding GMO Engineering and Why Altering Plant DNA in Laboratories Becomes so Dangerous to Human Health
(S.D. Wells) In this analysis, we are closely examining responses posted to questions on a Monsanto-based website that are most likely posed by the biotechnology scientists themselves (under pseudo-names) in order to either reassure GMO skeptics that there’s “nothing to fear here,” or to further spread propaganda that all things genetically modified are always 100 percent safe, 100 percent effective, and 100 percent sustainable – which are all false claims.
CBD Oil Is More Than Just A Fad: Holistic Vets Effectively Use It On Dogs
(Sara Tipton) CBD oil (cannabidiol oil) is proving itself as more than just a fad. It seems like everyone, from athletes to everyday busy moms, and even veterinarians are using it as a natural and safe holistic treatment for a variety of ailments.
Why The Law Forbids The Medicinal Use of Natural Substances
(Collective Evolution) According to the FDA’s legal definition, a drug is anything that “diagnoses, cures, mitigates, treats, or prevents a disease.” The problem with this definition is that there are numerous substances, as readily available and benign as found on our spice racks, which have been proven by countless millennia of human experience to mitigate, prevent and in some cases cure disease, and which cannot be called drugs according to the FDA.
What are Growth-Focused Relationships Like?
(Exploring Your Mind) A lot of people believe that relationships are synonymous with discomfort. This is because, for them, a relationship represents a permanent sacrifice, an uncomfortable place to be in. What is your personal view of a relationship in terms of success and personal growth? What do you think others think about this?
