Natural Heroes
Natural Heroes is a series of independently produced films that share a common theme: people who are actively involved in improving the environment, whether in their local community or on the other side of the world.
This spring Common Vision is running its fifth annual Fruit Tree Tour—a
20-city, 70-day tour planting over 1000 fruit trees at urban schools
and community centers from Los Angeles to Sacramento. Traveling in
veggie oil-powered caravan, 25-earth educators from Common Vision will teach students about sustainable ecology through a
day long program that includes theater, drumming, dancing, storytelling,
and earth-conscious hip-hop.

Spiritual Awakening
As we proceed further into the 21st century there is even more of a feeling
that humanity as a whole is hearing "a calling". Most of the clients in the
realm that talk about this describe it as an "awakening" or experiencing an
"enlightenment" or a "need for transformation."
For some this process, a spiritual awakening is a gentle process develops
as a consequence of many years of seeking, and researching practices having to
do with self-development. This is the type of seeker who wants the spiritual
awakening and seeks out the guidance of a teacher or to help them prepare
themselves emotionally and physically for their spiritual
awakening.

Warmer World May Mean Less Fish
The findings come in a new rapid response report entitled "In Dead Water" which has for the first time mapped the multiple impacts of pollution; alien
infestations; over-exploitation and climate change on the seas and
oceans.
"The worst concentration of cumulative impacts of climate change
with existing pressures of over-harvest, bottom trawling, invasive species
infestations, coastal development and pollution appear to be concentrated in
10-15 per cent of the oceans," says the report.
This 10-15 per cent of
the oceans is far higher than had previously been supposed and is "concurrent
with today's most important fishing grounds" including the estimated 7.5 per
cent deemed to be the most economically valuable fishing areas of the world, it
adds.

Quartz Crystals: Science or Magic?
There is no question that quartz crystals are very special. They have been
revered throughout the ages as symbols of beauty, health and often power. The
latter is sometimes referred to as key to the rise and fall of the mythical
civilization of Atlantis. More recently quartz crystals have been associated
within New Age circles and applications to holistic health, meditation and
personal growth.
Let us first explore the science behind the mystique of
quartz crystals. There are many types of natural quartz crystals. The most
common ones are amethyst, citrine, rose, smoky and clear. Natural quartz is
composed of silicon dioxide molecules. Quartz consisting solely of silicon
dioxide is known as clear quartz. The other members of the quartz family are
variations. In addition to the fundamental silicon dioxide structure, they also
have chemical impurities that were present when the crystal formed. For example
amethyst has impurities of manganese oxides, which gives it the typical purple
color.

Angel Connection
How the Angelic Realm is Interacting with Humanity at this Historic Time
Angels, those divine beings of love and light, are here at this time in greater
numbers than ever, to assist mankind in their evolution.
As we face a
time of great challenge and upheaval in our world, seeing death, destruction,
hate and war, we need to realize that we are experiencing a very important era
in history. Although, from our limited point of view things may appear negative,
we are experiencing fundamental changes that will affect those who come after us
for millennia. Behind the scenes, those of the Angelic Realm are working
overtime to guide and shape our new world, and within that framework, our new
lives.

Kundalini Awakening - Definition and the Path
Kundalini Awakening - the sure shot method for awakening of the
kundalini.
Before we discuss about kundalini awakening... we need to understand the
meaning of kundalini! The kundalini Shakti is that hidden positive energy stored in every human being by awakening which every human being can reach the level of
Mahavira, Gautama Buddha, Jesus Christ and Prophet Mohammed.
The awakening of the kundalini is possible by practicing the right Yoga and
meditation. In the normal circumstances the awakening of the kundalini is
supposed to happen within a period of 11 million manifestations in the form of a
human being. A serious seeker of spirituality always desires Kundalini awakening
at the earliest. Why?
Every true seeker of spirituality understands that unless the kundalini
awakening occurs... one shall not be able to reach the level of Nirvikalpa
samadhi and the stage of self realization. Kundalini awakening is a hundred
percent must before one can gain enlightenment in this life.
Think Orange! Creativity and the Sacral Chakra
Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could just flick a switch and turn
on your creativity? Sadly, at times, tapping into your creativity can
feel like trying to squeeze water from a stone. The good news is, there
are ways of encouraging creativity and one of these ways is through
balancing your sacral chakra.
Chakra is the Sanskrit word for
moving wheel; the chakras are vortexes of energy present in the
ethereal body and in corresponding locations of the physical body.
There are seven major chakras and they function as pathways for energy
to be taken in.

If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same"
