This Stress Test is looking at adrenal hormone levels. There is a wide range of physical and emotional disorders (see above) linked to adrenal hormone imbalance. This test is an easy way to find out whether these imbalances are affecting how you feel. Samples are taken from saliva throughout the day and looks at DHEA, and cortisol (Glucorticoids).  Call for details.</div> <bR> <div> the following are a sample of slides from the stress management class.</div> <bR> <bR> <div>  <A NAME="breathe__by_robert_fulford_d_o_"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A><FONT SIZE="3" COLOR="#000080" FACE="Times New Roman" >Breathe  By Robert Fulford, D.O.</FONT></div> <bR> <div> Man breathes throughout his life.  One cycle of digestion of food takes twenty-four hours.  One cycle of respiration, or digestion of air, takes three seconds.  During the course of a day, one breathes about 28.000 times.  If one observes closely, they will find that every breath brings a new thought to mind or  a new turn of repetition to an old thought.</div> <div> The most obvious, and the most vital, function of our psychosomatic organism, is the function of breathing.  How vital and basic it is, we can gauge from the fact that we can live without food for a number of weeks, without drink for a few days, but without air hardly a few moments.</div> <div> We can relinquish even consciousness as in deep sleep, or under narcosis, or in states of catalepsy - but we cannot relinquish breathing as long as we are alive.</div> <div> Breathing, therefore is the most subtle function of our organism, a function that can be both conscious and unconscious, volitional and non-volitional.  This is in contrast to most of our other functions such as the beating of the heart: the circulation of the blood, the currents of nerve energy, the function of digestion, assimilation, and secretion, etc.  Breathing is the only vital function which, in spite of its independence from our normal consciousness, and its self-regulating and self-perpetuating subconscious function is accessible to the mind.  Due to this double nature, breathing can be made the mediator between body and mind, or the mean of our conscious participation in the most vital and universal functions of our psychosomatic organism.</div> <div> Thus, the conscious control of the breath affects the electrical polarity of the brain and our bio-physical luminescence.</div> <div> Breathing becomes the first step toward the transformation of  the body from a state of a more or less passively and unconsciously functioning physical organism, into a vehicle or tool of a perfectly developed and enlightened individual, represented by the radiance and perfection of the body.</div> <div> The fact that all the major functions of the body have become automatic: i.e. self-regulating unconscious, and beyond the interference of will power or intellect, with the exception of breathing, is an achievement of our biological evolution, or the super individual power of our depth consciousness. Through breathing, we achieve the synthesis of all our functions, and realize the dynamic and universal nature of life.</div> <div> Breathing enlivens and vitalizes the physical body with life energy, and also balances the flow of life energies within the body.</div> <div> The primary “conductor” for the life energy in our body is the cerebrospinal fluid.  The cerebrospinal fluid is ionized by breathing exercises.</div> <div> The cerebrospinal fluid is generally believed to be produced by the Choroid Plexuses, located in the ventricles of the brain.  The cerebrospinal fluid circulates around the brain within the spinal column and nerve fibers.</div> <div> The pumping action, which circulates the cerebrospinal fluid, is created by the cranial bones in the skull, in conjunction with our breathing.</div> <div> Life energy which sustains our physical being is a “subtle” energy that exists at a higher mutational rate than physical vibration.  In esoteric teachings, life energy is generally referred to as Kundalini energy.</div> <div> I quote from the Philosophy of Osteopathy by A.T. till, page 39.</div> <div> “the results obtained are not satisfactory, and another leaf is opened of why no results are obtained and where is the mystery, what quality and element of force and vitality has been withheld.  A thought strikes him that the cerebrospinal fluid is the highest known element that is contained in the human body, and unless this fluid is furnished in abundance, a disabled condition of the body will remain.  He who is able to reason will see that this great river of life must be tapped and the withering field irrigated at at once, or the harvest of health will be forever lost.”</div> <bR> <div> So, breathing, both conscious and unconscious, becomes a vital factor in the flow of cerebrospinal fluids that carries the life energy.</div> <div> A balanced breath is a must for a long interesting, healthful and youthful life.  Through  the breath, the body and nervous system receive life-giving oxygen, but it also receives life-giving ether-pran-Universal Life- as well.  Unbalanced breathing disturbs the sleep pattern.  Unequal length of breathing cycles have a very negative effect upon the mind, brain, nerves, and body.  The unequal length of the cycle cause the unfortunate victim to seek various ways of quieting his screaming nerves, overcome his excessive irritability, or eliminate his fears, timidity, and bashfulness.</div> <div> Recent research has shown there is a nasal rhythm, which is one of the body rhythms.  The nasal rhythm reflects hemisphere activity in the brain.  The right nostril dominance goes with the left hemisphere of the brain.  The left nostril dominance goes with the right hemisphere of the brain.</div> <div> The breathing must be done through the nostrils and not the mouth.  The air must contact the olfactory nerves; if it doesn't you're only half alive.</div> <div> When the physical body has been stressed and one feels fatigues, a deep breath inhaled through the nostrils, held for a number of seconds, and suddenly expelled through the nostrils will usually strip the unwanted charges from the body and bring the body to a state of balance and well-being.  When you think, energy emerges from the body.  That energy has a distinct, precise pattern to it.  That energy is controlled by the breath.  As a man breaths, so is he.  The science of breath is vital to every individual.  Through breath we move through the various levels of consciousness to which we manifest these energies in space.</div> <div> When the life energy is jammed, the breath cannot flow through the body.  This problem is in part the result of the psychological and physical trauma people have suffered, including the emotional element in which they grew up.  Yet, the basic problem relates to birth.  As Leboyer recommends, “…the umbilical cord is kept pulsating so there is a gradual change over from the oxygenated blood, and if the baby is now lying peacefully on the mother, the baby's first breath will expand all the skull bones and all the bones of the body.  The baby's body has been put in a certain compact form for delivery, and after birth, it has in a sense, to be “reassembled.”  This is done with the breath.”  After a gentle birth, there will be a complete expansion of the body throughout.  Unfortunately, in most people this does not happen, and the body never fully expands from birth.  Thus it is predisposed to misusage and ultimate imbalance, distortion and spiraling effects.</div> <div> A book, The Baby's Cry, by Truby, published in 1978.</div> <div> Truby got his Ph.D. research work on the baby's crying in Stockholm, Sweden.  A study of 15,000 sound and spectrographic analysis.  He recorded the moment of the child's first cry and followed up with studies through the first seven years of development.  So he got a pattern of the growth and development of the personality of the child.  From the first breath, or baby's cry, he could determine the personality of the child, its weaknesses and the degree of health and well-being.</div> <div> The mouth breather presents several problems.  Perhaps the most common situation is that most people jam their breath as soon as they are stressed.  The slightest trauma, psychological or physical, causes an activation of the solar plexus, which produces an emotional stimuli and the holding of the breath.  Perhaps, more than any other factor, this causes a shock to have a traumatic effect, when it jams our breath, devitalizes us or weakens our life energy at a moment when we need it most.  The trauma leads to our present patterns of abnormal behaviors that gets in to the body and has its effect.  Thus, the more our breath is freed up, the less the effect of the trauma.</div> <div> Strangely, many people actually turn against their breathing.  Breathing itself has become an unnatural act for them, a stress, a chore.  Basic to all work on anyone's physical body, we must teach them to like breathing.  Then they will relax.  There will be ease and a peace.  Then at last they can appreciate, like and value their most vital function, breathing.</div> <div> There is interplay between the Etheric matrix and the gases, liquids and solids of the physical body.  There is a constant balance between the vital regenerative forces of the Etheric matrix and the degenerating and decaying forces of the physical body and the environment.</div> <div> A physical body is, and has, its essential form in the bony structure.  A bio-energetic field exists around the body maintaining the balance and total functioning of the physical form.  If we become attached to thought process which has a high emotional content, that thought pattern will be locked into the bio-energetic field which surrounds the physical body. The physical body will manifest itself in a distortion pattern, i.e., a slumping of the shoulders, a shortening of the leg, a twisting of the body, a pulling of the muscles of the eye or mouth.  If continued for an extended period to time, these patterns will become chronic and locked into the body form.  Thoughts are things.</div> <div> The significant point is that all awareness and behavior, is derived primarily from very limited perception.</div> <div> We do so much harm to our emotional and physical bodies from the lack of forgiving.  We must learn to love ourselves.  For in the act of loving we fill the energetic field, that we need to maintain life.</div> <div> When you can love without constraint, you maintain a balance of force that keeps your mind and body and spirit functioning and moving in a direction for growth and development.</div> <div> To heal is to bring an individual to a state of wholeness and well-being.  This is accomplished with breath and love.</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <IMG SRC="17bde7b0.png" border=0 width="478" height="379" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="17cdf720.png" border=0 width="479" height="370" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="17fdf740.png" border=0 width="479" height="372" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="180de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="181de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="182de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="185de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="187de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="18dde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="18ede670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="191de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="192de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="193de770.png" border=0 width="478" height="375" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="194de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="196de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="197de680.png" border=0 width="478" height="360" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="198de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="199de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="19ade820.png" border=0 width="478" height="386" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="19bde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="19cde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="19fde6d0.png" border=0 width="478" height="365" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a1de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a2de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a3de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a4de700.png" border=0 width="478" height="368" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a5de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a6de680.png" border=0 width="478" height="360" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a7de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a8de6f0.png" border=0 width="478" height="367" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1a9de670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1aade670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1abde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1acde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"><IMG SRC="1adde670.png" border=0 width="478" height="359" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> <IMG SRC="21fde690.png" border=0 width="478" height="361" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <div> Mind </div> <div> <IMG SRC="2a7dd7d0.png" border=0 width="477" height="381" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div> <B> <A NAME="installing_love"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B><B>Installing </B><B>LOVE</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Well, I'm not very technical, but I think I'm ready to install it</B></div> <div> <B>now.

Have you located your</B></div> <div> <B>HEART, ma'am?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Yes, I have, but there are several other programs running right</B></div> <div> <B> now. Is it okay to install while they are running?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: What programs are running, ma'am?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Let's see... I have PAST-HURT.EXE, LOW-ESTEEM.EXE, GRUDGE.EXE. and RESENTMENT.COM running now.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: No problem. LOVE will gradually erase PAST-HURT.EXE from</B></div> <div> <B>Your current operating system. It may remain in your permanent memory, but it will no longer disrupt other programs. LOVE will eventually overwrite</B></div> <div> <B> LOW-ESTEEM.EXE with a module of its own called HIGH-ESTEEM.EXE. However you have to completely turn off GRUDGE.EXE and RESENTMENT.COM. Those programs prevent LOVE from being properly installed. Can you turn those off, ma'am?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: I don't know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: My pleasure. Go to your Start menu and invoke</B></div> <div> <B>FORGIVENESS.EXE. Do this as many times as necessary until it's erased  the programs you don't want.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Okay, now LOVE has started installing itself automatically. Is</B></div> <div> <B>that normal?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Yes. You should receive a message that says it will</B></div> <div> <B>Reinstall for the life of your HEART. Do you see that message?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Yes, I do. Is it completely installed?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Yes, but remember that you have only the base program. You need to begin connecting to other Hearts in order to get the upgrades.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Oops. I have an error message already. What should I do?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: What does the message say?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: It says "ERROR 412-PROGRAM NOT RUN ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS. "What does that mean?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Don't worry, ma'am, that's a common problem. It means that the LOVE program is set up to run on external Hearts but has not yet been</B></div> <div> <B>run on your HEART. It is one of those complicated programming things, but</B></div> <div> <B>in non-technical terms it means you have to "LOVE" your own machine before it can "LOVE" others.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: So what should I do?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Can you pull down the directory called "SELF-ACCEPTANCE"?=</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Yes, I have it.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Excellent. You're getting good at this. Now, click on the following files and then copy them to the "MYHEART" directory:</B></div> <div> <B>FORGIVE-SELF.DOC, REALIZE-WORTH.TXT, and ACKNOWLEDGE-LIMITATIONS.DOC. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching any faulty programming. Also, you need to delete SELF-CRITIC.EXE from all directories, and then empty your recycle bin afterwards to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.</B></div> <div> <B> </B></div> <div> <B>Customer: Got it. Hey! My HEART is filling up with new files. SMILE.MPG=</B></div> <div> <B>is playing on my monitor right now and it shows that PEACE.EXE, and</B></div> <div> <B>CONTENTMENT.COM are copying themselves all over my HEART. Is this normal?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: Sometimes. For others it takes a while, but eventually everything gets downloaded at the proper time. So, LOVE is installed and</B></div> <div> <B>running. You should be able to handle it from here. Ah, one more thing.=</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: Yes?</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Tech Support: LOVE is freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everybody you meet. They will in turn share it with other people and they will return some similarly cool modules back to you.</B></div> <bR> <div> <B>Customer: I will!

Perhaps you are, too. But our society is spending a billion dollars a day preparing for war.</div> <div> I believe that inner peace is found when you love the world as it is, rather than faulting it for not living up to your expectations. I believe in forgiveness. I believe in accepting others for who they are. But I am part of a society that is spending far more on weapons of mass destruction and producing far more toxic waste than any other in the history of the world.</div> <div> I believe in bringing a positive attitude toward life. I believe that love is stronger than fear. But our country now has more gun dealers than gas stations.</div> <div> I have stood with my hand over my heart, pledging allegiance to this country and reciting the words ’"with liberty and justice for all." I want this nation to be the land of the free. But today a greater proportion of U.S. citizens are behind bars than any other country in the world. Many states now spend more money on prisons than on education.</div> <div> I have been stirred to my core by the words and example of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I believe in this country's promise of equal opportunity for all. But young black males now make up 6 percent of the population of this country, and 50 percent of prison inmates.</div> <div> I want to uphold the brotherhood and sisterhood of all people. I believe that how we treat each other says a lot about us as people. But how do you honor the dignity and inherent worth of every human being when shoe companies are paying basketball players $20 million to endorse their shoes, while paying their workers 20 cents an hour to make them?</div> <div> I believe that  every child is a precious treasure. I affirm that all children deserve to be nurtured and protected. But in this rich and prosperous country more than 25 percent of all children are living in poverty.</div> <div> I have been proud of my country. But today, among the world's industrialized nations, our nation is number one in billionaires and number one in children and elderly living in poverty. Number one in real wealth and number one in unequal wealth distribution. Number one in big houses and number one in homelessness.</div> <div> I love the natural world, and do my best to honor the living Earth. Perhaps you do, too. But even as many of us do what we can, the tropical rainforests are being destroyed so people whose cholesterol levels are too high can eat hamburgers a quarter cent cheaper. Rainfall now often contains such high levels of pesticides that it would be illegal to sell as drinking water. And the tallest mountain on the east coast is a garbage dump.</div> <div> I draw great strength from my kinship with animals. Some of my best friends have had four legs. Perhaps you, too, have had a relationship with an animal that has enriched you as a human being. But much of our food today come from animals raised in factory farms that resemble concentration camps.</div> <div> There is so much pain and death in our times. This is not an easy time to be a person of conscience and feeling. It can be terribly hard today to stay in touch with your deep soul. It can seem all but impossible to keep your love alive. The world has a way of blowing relentless hurricane winds at our little flickering candles of faith.</div> <div> This is what I have to say at this time in history. I stand here in the face of the anguish of our time, and I affirm that it is possible to see it all, to gaze fully into the abyss, and yet not become bitter and broken.</div> <div> I stand for this. We are not here to be defeated. Our hopes are not empty vessels holding no truth. I stand for this. Our dreams and prayers are rooted in something greater than the forces of death.</div> <div> I stand for this. Our despair and fury at the world's brutalities are part of our awakening. There is something mysterious taking place in this world that is part of our healing.</div> <div> I stand for this. This world is not a tragic and terrible mistake. With all its flaws, it is still a sacred path to our destiny as human beings. There is horror and agony here, yes, and it can be overwhelming. But there are also infinite opportunities for new life, beauty, and the learnings of love.</div> <div> Bitter winds are howling. Let them howl. We can shelter each other and put our little flames together. Maybe then we will find ourselves better able to face adversity. Maybe then we will find that the pain we feared would destroy us rather brings us back to what gives us life.</div> <div> I stand for this. There are sources of joy here, and we are here to protect them and cherish them.</div> <div> I stand for this. If we meet the world with eyes that do not flinch and hearts that are open, we will find ourselves capable of what is asked of us.</div> <div> I stand for this. We who are alive, with breath in our bodies and love in our hearts, have much to be thankful for.</div> <div> I stand for this. In our connection with each other we are more than strong and brave. We are humble enough to be human in this world.</div> <bR> <DIV ALIGN="LEFT"></DIV> <div> <B> <A NAME="waging_peace"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A></B><B>Waging Peace</B></div> <div> Dr. Robert Muller, former assistant secretary general of the United Nations, now Chancellor emeritus of the University of Peace in Costa Rica was one of the people who witnessed the founding of the U.N. and has worked in support</div> <div> of or inside the U.N. ever since. Recently he was in San Francisco to be honored for his service to the world through the U.N. and through his writings and teachings for peace. At age eighty, Dr. Muller surprised, even stunned, many in the audience that day with his most positive assessment of where the world stands now regarding war and peace.  I was there at the gathering and I myself was stunned by his remarks.  What he said turned my head around and offered me a new way to see what is going on in the world.  My synopsis of his remarks is below:</div> <bR> <div> "I'm so honored to be here," he said.  "I'm so honored to be alive at such a miraculous time in history. I'm so moved by what's going on in our world today."</div> <bR> <div> (I was shocked. I thought -- Where has he been? What has he been reading? Has he seen the newspapers? Is he senile? Has he lost it? What is he talking about?)</div> <bR> <div> Dr. Muller proceeded to say, "Never before in the history of the world has there been a global, visible, public, viable, open dialogue and conversation about the very legitimacy of war".</div> <bR> <div> The whole world is in now having this critical and historic dialogue--listening to all kinds of points of view and positions about going to war or not going to war. In a huge global public conversation the world is asking-"Is war legitimate? Is it illegitimate? Is there enough evidence to warrant an attack? Is there not enough evidence to warrant an attack?</div> <bR> <div> What will be the consequences? The costs? What will happen after a war? How will this set off other conflicts? What might be peaceful alternatives?  What kind of negotiations are we not thinking of? What are the real intentions for declaring war?"</div> <bR> <div> All of this, he noted, is taking place in the context of the United Nations Security Council, the body that was established in 1949 for exactly this purpose. He pointed out that it has taken us more than fifty years to realize that function, the real function of the U.N. And at this moment in history--the United Nations is at the center of the stage. It is the place where these conversations are happening, and it has become in these last months and weeks, the most powerful governing body on earth, the most powerful container for the world's effort to wage peace rather than war.  Dr. Muller was almost in tears in recognition of the fulfillment of this dream.</div> <bR> <div> "We are not at war," he kept saying. We, the world community, are WAGING peace.  It is difficult, hard work. It is constant and we must not let up. It is working and it is an historic milestone of immense proportions. It has never happened before-never in human history-and it is happening now-every day every hour-waging peace through a global conversation. He pointed out that the conversation questioning the validity of going to war has gone on for hours, days, weeks, months and now more than a year, and it may go on and on. "We're in peacetime," he kept saying. "Yes, troops are being moved.  Yes, warheads are being lined up. Yes, the aggressor is angry and upset and spending a billion dollars a day preparing to attack. But not one shot has been fired. Not one life has been lost. There is no war. It's all a conversation."</div> <bR> <div> It is tense, it is tough, it is challenging, AND we are in the most significant and potent global conversation and public dialogue in the history of the world. This has not happened before on this scale ever before-not before WWI or WWII, not before Vietnam or Korea, this is new and it is a stunning new era of Global listening, speaking, and responsibility.</div> <bR> <div> In the process, he pointed out, new alliances are being formed. Russia and China on the same side of an issue is an unprecedented outcome. France and Germany working together to wake up the world to a new way of seeing the situation. The largest peace demonstrations in the history of the world are taking place--and we are not at war! Most peace demonstrations in recent history took place when a war was already waging, sometimes for years,as in the case of Vietnam.</div> <bR> <div> "So this," he said, "is a miracle. This is what "waging peace " looks like. "No matter what happens, history will record that this is a new era, and that the 21st century has been initiated with the world in a global dialogue looking deeply, profoundly and responsibly as a global community at the legitimacy of the actions of a nation that is desperate to go to war.</div> <bR> <div> Through these global peace-waging efforts, the leaders of that nation are being engaged in further dialogue, forcing them to rethink, and allowing all nations to participate in the serious and horrific decision to go to war or not.</div> <div> Dr. Muller also made reference to a recent New York Times article that pointed out that up until now there has been just one superpower-the United States, and that  has created a kind of blindness in the vision of the U.S.  But now, Dr. Muller asserts, there are two superpowers: the United States and the merging, urging voice of the people of the world.</div> <bR> <div> All around the world, people are waging peace. To Robert Muller, one of the great advocates of the United Nat ions, it is nothing short of a miracle and it is working. Let us pray that it continues to work</div> <bR> <div> Dear Friends, by  <A NAME="christiane_northrup_m_d"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A>Christiane Northrup, M.D</div> <div>  </div> <div> The fear and anxiety caused by the possibility of war are the biggest health challenges we face right now. As a physician, I know full well that emotions such as fear and anger impede the healing process and, if held long enough, actually lock us into a vicious cycle that produces more pain, more fear, and more anxiety. This can wreak havoc on our minds, bodies, and spirits. But this doesn't have to be the case. </div> <div>  </div> <div> There are very specific things each of us can do right now to help prevent war and at the same time create peace in our bodies, minds, and spirits. I was strongly reminded of this week. Both of my daughters called from their respective colleges with concerns and worries about what they've heard on the news about a possible terrorist attack. One wanted to know what I thought about stockpiling cash, water, and canned goods. Her roommate's mother had sent them warnings. The other daughter wanted to know if I thought it was safe for her to go to NYC this weekend. I told them to go </div> <div> about their lives as usual, while paying attention to their inner guidance. I reassured them that they each had access to guidance from within that would lead them in the right direction if they paid attention. I also gave them a way to think about the current global situation that leads to healing </div> <div> and peace, not further conflict, and shared with them my unshakable belief that each of us has the power, through our thoughts and emotions, to influence the energy of the planet in a way that helps prevent further conflict and also creates peace. Here's what you can do. </div> <div>  </div> <div> 1. Use your thoughts wisely. Understand their power. Thoughts have a tendency to become their physical equivalent. This is one of the fundamental laws of the universe. Another one is the law of attraction, which states </div> <div> that "like attracts like." Because it is consciousness that creates reality, the kind of consciousness you hold-your vibration-actually creates the kind of life you're living. It's impossible to create peace and harmony if you're pushing up against a war. It's impossible to create peace and harmony if </div> <div> you're condemning George Bush, Dick Cheney, Colin Powell, etc. You don't have to agree with them, but realize that you'll be contributing to the energy that creates war if you assume an "embattled" mentality concerning them. The split in our nation right now about war is actually creating more of the energy of war. It's not possible to "fight" for peace without creating war. </div> <div>  </div> <div>  2. To create peace, you have to be peaceful. The only way to stop war is to start from within yourself. You must do personal disarmament. The only way to get and stay peaceful is to concentrate on what brings you peace and </div> <div> resist the downward spiral of negative emotions that blames others for your lack of peace. Remember, that to which you give your attention expands. Although there is no denying that we're in a perilous and frightening position right now, that doesn't mean we are powerless to change it. But the only way to do so is by changing your thoughts and emotions from those of anger, hatred, and fear to those associated with compassion and peace. </div> <div>  </div> <div> Spend 30 seconds several times a day creating a "virtual" reality of what peace would look and feel like. Imagine that it's a year from now and the economy is flourishing. George Bush is radiantly healthy; the governments of the free world are all cooperating to ensure global harmony and peace. And </div> <div> Saddam and Bin Laden and their influence have disappeared from the planet. Imagine all our soldiers back home and reunited with their families. Imagine a global village in which all of us can travel freely and joyously and with understanding and acceptance of each other's cultures. When thinking about Iraq or North Korea, imagine the women and children. Send your energy and compassion to them. Don't try to change the men of these countries. In fact, </div> <div> don't even give them any thought lest you energize them. Withdraw your energy from them so that you will no longer be "feeding" them. </div> <div>  </div> <div> Dozens of studies have documented the fact that our thoughts can and do affect others in profound and measurable ways. When a critical mass of individuals (1 percent of the population) was brought together to practice </div> <div> Transcendental Meditation in various areas of the world, for example, there was a measurable decrease in the number of violent crimes, suicides, terrorist attacks, and even international conflicts worldwide. </div> <div> (Orme-Johnson, et al. (1988). International Peace Project in the Middle East: The effect of the Maharishi technology on the unified field. Journal of Conflict Resolution, vol. 32, (4), pp. 776-812.) There are also over 180 studies that have documented the positive effect of prayer on everything from other humans to yeast cells. </div> <div>  </div> <div> 3. Imagine all the angels and non-physical beings who are working on the other side to protect and uplift all of us. Know that they can only do their work in an atmosphere of compassion, not condemnation. The energy of condemnation will prevent them from connecting with the hearts of those who most need their inspiration and love. </div> <div>  </div> <div> 4. Avoid watching the news and reading the newspapers. Headlines are designed to keep you afraid and disempowered so that you will buy more papers or watch more TV. Then you get "hooked" on the news because you're waiting for some official "guidance" that will keep you safe and secure. This simply can't happen, because it's not the way the media is set up. The media is designed to get you riled up, so that you remain tuned in to the "chain of pain." The only lasting safety and security come from the peace that you create within yourself. What's safe for one person will be dangerous for another. Remember all the hundreds of stories from September 11, about the people who were supposed to be at the World Trade Center but, </div> <div> for hundreds of different reasons, simply weren't there that day. Tune in to how you are feeling when you've severed the influence of the mass media. This will give you the guidance you're seeking. </div> <div>  </div> <div> 5. Finally, know that when you are tuned into your heart, your Inner Wisdom, and God, then your energy lightens up and your vibration literally changes. You become a beacon of light and peace. You become an uplifter and a peacemaker. There's an old saying, "The rising tide lifts all boats. But </div> <div> it won't raise a stone." Stop looking at and thinking about the stones. Join me in raising the tide. And remember the words of the great M. K. Gandhi, "When in despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won; there have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall." </div> <div>  </div> <div>  </div> <div> Warmly, </div> <div>  </div> <div> Christiane Northrup, M.D</div> <bR> <bR> <bR> <div>  <A NAME="george_carlin_post_9_11__his_wife"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A>GEORGE CARLIN POST 9-11 </div> <bR> <div> GEORGE CARLIN POST 9-11 (His wife recently died...) </div> <div> >Isn't it amazing that George Carlin - mouthy comedian of the 70's and 80's - could write something so very eloquent .and so very appropriate post 9-11. A wonderful Message by George Carlin:  The paradox of our time in history is that we have  taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider  freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,  but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less. We have  bigger houses and smaller families, more  conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet  more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.  We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too  recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get </div> <div> too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our  values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often. </div> <bR> <div>  We've learned how to make a living, but not a life. We've added years to life not life to years. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space. We've done larger things, but not better things. </div> <bR> <div> We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice. We  write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more  information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less. </div> <bR> <div> These are the times of fast foods and slow  digestion, big men and small character, steep </div> <div> profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier  houses, but broken homes. These are days of quick  trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one  night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do  everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill. It is a  time when there is much in the showroom window and </div> <div> nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can  bring this letter to you, and a time when you can  choose either to share this insight, or to just hit  delete. </div> <bR> <div>  Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever. Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to  you in awe, because that little person soon will  grow up and leave your side. Remember, to give a  warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the  only treasure you can give with your heart and it  doesn't cost a cent. </div> <bR> <div> Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and  an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you. Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again. Give time to love, give time to speak, and  give time to share the precious thoughts in your  mind. </div> <div>  </div> <div>  Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. </div> <bR> <div>  <A NAME="_how_to_stay_young_"><IMG BORDER="0" SRC="1x1.gif" HEIGHT="1" ALIGN="bottom" WIDTH="1" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" ></A> HOW TO STAY YOUNG </div> <bR> <div>  1.

They don't want to deal with the world. But in the time we're living in, the gap between the needs of the world context and the need for individuals to evolve is beginning to close, and I do believe that many people are beginning to see that these are both part of one event. What does that mean for those of us who are interested in the spiritual dimension of life? It means we have to do everything we can to evolve and to develop ourselves personally, so we can become enlightened. And at the same time, we have to realize that we are part of this world system, and that if consciousness itself is going to continue to develop, the world system has to be protected so that consciousness will be able to continue to develop. Just think about it-it's been fourteen billion years, and life is only beginning to gain the capacity for self consciousness. What a tragedy if it were all to be brought to an end because of ego. But if we're willing to embrace the urgency to evolve and transform for the sake of the whole, there's no way of knowing what's possible. We all have far more potential than we even dare to consider. </div> <div> <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="1" CELLSPACING="1" WIDTH="326" BORDERCOLORLIGHT="#C0C0C0" BORDERCOLORDARK="#808080" FRAME="VOID" RULES="NONE" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0" > <tR> <tD VALIGN=CENTER HEIGHT= 380 WIDTH="66"><div> <IMG SRC="40b01010.png" border=0 width="1" height="1" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> </tD> <tD VALIGN=CENTER WIDTH="253"><div> <I>Andrew Cohen</I></div> <div> <I>New York City, January 2004 </I></div> <bR> <bR> <div> Dr. Peter Gott, an MD that writes a regular column in the Tulsa World, had this to say this morning:</div> <bR> <div> "There is a troubling tendency in the developed world to insist that any ailment or disease can be cured by medicine.
