The Ancient Food Forests They Removed From Modern Cities

 

Caring for Your Lymphatic System

 Your lymphatic system is a bit like an internal cleanup crew, working throughout the body to regulate fluid, support immunity, and carry cellular waste and other unwanted material away from the tissues. Most of the time, it performs this essential work without drawing attention to itself. But when lymphatic drainage is disrupted, excess fluid can accumulate, sometimes causing digestive discomfort, bloating and puffiness, or a general sense of dis-ease.

One of the simplest ways to support healthy lymphatic flow is through intentional movement, deep breathing, and good hydration. Nourishing acts of self-care like this encourage fluid and waste to travel through the natural lymphatic pathways — supporting your body’s ability to clear excess fluid and return to a more harmonious internal balance.

When your body feels more balanced on the inside, that sense of well-being can ripple into every part of your life. You may feel more energized, more comfortable in your own skin, and more able to meet the day with a sense of ease. Caring for your lymphatic system is a gentle way of reminding your body that it is supported — and that small, loving choices can help you feel healthier and happier. (Daily OM)

Bombshell Report Claims Miliband’s Clean Power Plan Will Cost £320 Billion

 A new report, commissioned by the Tories, has found that Ed Miliband’s Clean Power 2030 Plan will cost an extra £320 billion by 2050, compared to their own watered-down proposals which prioritise gas and nuclear, rather than wind and solar.

The report by the economic think tank Onward was originally commissioned by Claire Coutinho, when she was Energy Secretary, to calculate the overall system costs of fully decarbonising the UK’s electricity supply. It was conveniently shelved by Ed Miliband when he took office.

The extra costs are made up as follows...<<<Read More>>>...

Primal Vision & ‘Active Seeing’

  It is almost impossible for modern man to understand how he can be ‘blind’. We see what is in front of our noses, and we could not see more even if we opened our eyes as far as they will go.

But there is another kind of blindness, which American philosopher and psychologist William James describes in his essay ‘On a Certain Blindness in Human Beings’. James recounts how he was being driven, in a buggy, through the mountains of North Carolina, and looking with revulsion at the newly-cultivated patches of land (called coves) and reflecting how ugly they were. He asked the driver what kind of people lived here, and the driver replied cheerfully: “We ain’t happy unless we’re getting one of these coves under cultivation.” And James suddenly woke up to the fact that these homesteaders regarded each cove as a personal victory, and saw it as beautiful.

We become blind to things by imposing our concepts on them and looking at them with a kind of indifference, which arises from our conviction that we know what they are already. James was quite sure that the coves were ugly, without seeing that the ugliness lay in his own eyes.

But even when we know this, it is still very difficult for us to grasp just how the ancient Egyptians – or our Cro-Magnon ancestors – somehow saw the world quite differently, and might consequently have developed their own ‘high levels of science’...<<<Read More>>>...

Can The Universe Be Someone’s Brain?

 If you visit the Internet often enough, then you have probably seen pictures comparing the Universe with the human brain.

And it does not mean its soft and sinuous gray matter. We are talking about microscopic connections between his nerve cells which are known as “neurons”.

Turmeric’s Anti-Inflammatory Benefits: Four Methods of Use Supported by Research

Turmeric, a spice used in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for more than 4,000 years, contains curcumin, a polyphenolic compound that research indicates may reduce inflammation. According to an article by Mercola.com, chronic inflammation is a hallmark of virtually all diseases, including cancer, obesity, and heart disease. A separate analysis of 21 clinical trials published in BMC Complementary Medicine and Therapies in July 2025 found that curcumin significantly lowered two inflammation markers: C-reactive protein (CRP) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), according to a report by NaturalHealth365 cited by NaturalNews.com. Four primary methods of using turmeric for its anti-inflammatory effects are supported by research: cooking, teas, smoothies, and supplements.

urcumin lowers inflammation by inhibiting pro-inflammatory signaling molecules such as interleukins, TNF-alpha, and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), according to studies. Lance D Johnson, writing for NaturalNews.com on April 14, 2025, stated that curcumin is a multifaceted polyphenol with neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory properties [3]. In vitro studies have shown that curcuminoids exert potent antioxidant effects and enhance cellular resistance to oxidative stress, according to Lise N Alschuler in "The Definitive Guide to Thriving After Cancer". The antioxidant activity of curcumin may protect against free radical damage that worsens inflammation, researchers reported. A science paper by Kavita Bisht in Toxicology (2009) noted that curcumin, resveratrol, and flavonoids act as anti-inflammatory, cyto- and DNA-protective dietary compounds....<<<Read More>>>...

Sumerian Texts Reveal What Existed on Earth Before the Anunnaki

 

 
 
Ancient Sumerian tablets are among the oldest written records ever discovered, preserving fragments of stories, myths, and beliefs from one of humanity’s earliest civilizations. Within these clay tablets appear references to powerful beings known as the Anunnaki, deities who were said to descend from the heavens and play a role in shaping the early world of humans. 
 
But some interpretations of these ancient texts suggest that the story may go even deeper. 
 
According to certain readings of Sumerian mythology, there are passages that hint at an age that may have existed before the arrival of the Anunnaki themselves. A time so distant and mysterious that only fragmented references remain — scattered across damaged tablets, incomplete translations, and symbolic language that scholars still debate today. 
 
Could these ancient records be describing a forgotten chapter of Earth’s past? 
 
In this video, we take a closer look at the enigmatic Sumerian tablets, exploring the stories, symbols, and interpretations that have led some researchers to propose the possibility of a world that existed long before the Anunnaki entered the narrative of human history. We examine how early Mesopotamian mythology describes cycles of creation, divine conflicts, and celestial beings connected to the origins of civilization. 
 
Through historical context, ancient texts, and visual reconstructions, the episode explores questions that continue to fascinate historians, archaeologists, and alternative history researchers alike: 
 
• Do the Sumerian records simply describe mythological cosmology? 
• Or could fragments of older traditions be hidden within the stories? 
• And why do some tablets appear to reference events or ages that seem to precede the well-known Anunnaki narratives? 
 
While mainstream scholarship views the Anunnaki as mythological gods within the religious worldview of ancient Mesopotamia, alternative interpretations have proposed more speculative ideas — from lost civilizations to misunderstood descriptions of powerful ancient rulers. 
 
This video does not claim definitive answers. Instead, it presents the mystery surrounding the earliest Sumerian traditions, allowing viewers to explore the evidence, interpretations, and unanswered questions that continue to surround these ancient texts. +++Some scenes in this video include AI-generated visual reconstructions created to help illustrate environments, cities, and mythological events described in ancient sources
 
Step back thousands of years into the cradle of civilization and explore a question that still echoes through the oldest written stories humanity has left behind: 
 
Was there a forgotten age before the Anunnaki? If you enjoy exploring ancient mysteries, lost civilizations, and the hidden meanings of the world's oldest texts, this episode will take you deep into the enigmatic world of early Mesopotamian mythology.

AI is Giving the Non-Professional Classes a Voice – and Institutions Are Feeling It

 There is a quiet revolution under way in how ordinary people communicate with schools, airlines and the NHS – and institutions are only beginning to feel its force, writes Joanna Gray.

“Usually such parents barrel into school, have an incoherent shout in the playground, swear at me and whoever is close, tell me their child is an angel and barrel out again. Now in the age of AI this has all changed. Such parents are now sending in AI generated emails of complaint and they are brilliant.” So explains the Head of School of a large London primary. He says that take-up of AI has accelerated in the past half term, giving voice to a section of parents previously unable to reasonably articulate their concerns. What this means positively for parents has varied ramifications for teachers. Best-case scenario, it should improve the classroom experience; worst-case scenario, it adds a massive extra workload for teachers with spurious but legally accurate demands.

The Head shares with me two examples from the summer term of this year. “A Year One student [six-years-old] wet herself. This is not unusual. This child arrived in reception still wearing nappies. It is not unusual for Key Stage One children to wet themselves. We have great teaching assistants who know what to do in these instances. She changed into her PE kit and at the end of the day the class teacher told the parent what had happened and gave her daughter’s wet clothes in a plastic bag. So far so routine. The following week I received a beautifully written email from the mother, copying in the Chair of Governors and the CEO of our Education Trust. The email insisted that she see the school’s CCTV footage around the time of the incident because the mum did not believe her daughter would have wet herself unprovoked. She also issued a subject access request whereby any time her daughter’s name had come up in school communications, she could read the paperwork. I had to spend a considerable time pulling up the CCTV and then anonymising all the other children featured, the same with the paperwork, manually retracting all other children’s names. It took hours....<<<Read More>>>...

Growing Through Life’s Challenges

 

A tree that is beginning to grow sends roots down into Mother Earth even as it reaches and opens to the sky above, seeking nourishment from the sun and the moisture in the air and in the rain that falls. Similarly, we can envision ourselves as treelike beings, imagining that we have roots reaching down into the earth, energetic strands that keep us connected. At the same time, the crowns of our heads lift and open to receive nourishment from above. Just like a tree, we seek the sunshine and water we need to survive and thrive. Both trees and people serve as conduits for the intermingling of the opposite and complementary elements of air, water, sun, and earth.

We also share creative ways of growing, regardless of the challenges we come up against in our environments. Trees will even grow through rock, shattering it, in their effort to reach the air and light they need to survive; this process of pushing through resistance actually strengthens the tree's core. We are similarly resilient, with a built-in propensity for transformation. Our obstacles can be seen not as barriers but as opportunities for self-discovery. We move toward the light that feeds us and can emerge stronger.

Contemplating the ways in which trees and people mirror one another brings us into alignment with the reality that we are part of nature. Our children, and the trees and their children, will live together on the earth as long as we all survive, sharing the elements and serving together to forward nature’s plan. Walking in a forest can be a meditation, the interweaving lives of all living creatures and the planet on which we all take root and reach for the sky. (Daily OM)

The Full Story of the Watchers — Before the Archons Existed

 

 
 
Before the Archons. Before the Demiurge’s system was fully established. Before the soul trap was complete, there were the Watchers. 
 
According to the Book of Enoch, 200 mysterious beings descended to Earth and changed humanity forever. But were they really fallen angels driven by desire, or were they carrying out a much larger mission? In this video, we explore the hidden connection between the Watchers, the Nephilim, Gnostic texts, and the origins of the spiritual prison many believe humanity still lives within today. 
 
Discover the forbidden knowledge allegedly given to humanity metallurgy, astrology, incantations, writing, and the ancient technologies that transformed civilization. Drawing from the Book of Enoch, the Apocalypse of Adam, the Apocryphon of John, the Reality of the Rulers, and other Gnostic traditions, this deep dive examines one of the most controversial and mysterious stories in ancient history. 
 
Were the Watchers rebels... or architects? 
 
Watch until the end and decide for yourself.

The Inversion: How We Have Been Tricked into Perceiving a False Reality

 Let us begin with a story …

Human life is a story. And yet it is not one single story. It is an open book full of rich, amazing, powerful, and sometimes dangerous, stories. Humanity is quite literally living its own 1001 Nights yet across millennia. And just like that book of masterful storytelling, there have been incredible stories that filled the minds, and hearts, of many millions of people throughout the ages. 

We live upon and within a story each second of our lives. Some of these stories are greater than others – more epic, more powerful, and more influential. Others are daily stories that fill our pockets and arrange our hours. Yet over and above our stories there has always been a grand narrative. It is this grand, sweeping story that narrates, and influences, the general direction in which humanity moves.  

And this grand narrative is often so compelling, so full of persuasive detail, that we believe in it wholeheartedly. Like an amazing tale told to a child before bedtime, this tale then becomes woven into that night’s dream. Upon waking, the dream feels so real that it lingers far long into the day and until it is replenished once again before bedtime. And yet sometimes, within special circumstances, the dream is so captivating and convincing that it causes the dreamer never to awaken. The dreamer continues to dream the dream that they were told before sleeping.

Human history is like a dream within a dream – an inversion within an illusion. And as many dreamers know, there are levels within dreams. Like a Russian Matryoshka doll, there are nesting layers of stories that all combine to create an overarching narrative body or realm. And many people, like good dreamers, find themselves caught up within one of the layers. And it can be almost impossible to get out...<<<Read More>>>....

Russian Scientist Claims UFOs Are U.S. Spy Technology

 In recent years, global fascination with UFOs has reached new heights. But according to Pavel Poluian, a Russian physicist and philosopher with a background in geophysics, these sightings may have a more Earth-bound explanation.

In his letter to anomalien.com, Poluian claims that UFOs—or at least many of them—are advanced espionage devices developed by the United States during the Cold War, featuring plasma-driven propulsion systems that mimic the characteristics of otherworldly crafts.

Poluian, who has published multiple works debunking pseudoscientific theories, including “The Elimination of UFOs” and “The Hunt for UFOs,” explains that he believes these crafts were part of a secret U.S. military project, initiated shortly after WWII.

This project, he claims, aimed to develop aircraft using an unconventional propulsion system that generated lift via high-frequency vibrations.

Starting with early designs like James Pitts’ “Sky Car” orthotopter umbrella, this technology evolved into what is now associated with the iconic “flying saucers” of popular UFO lore....<<<Read More>>>...

Comcast Activates WiFi Motion Detection on MILLIONS of Routers, Raising Privacy Concerns

 On Aug. 18, Comcast activated a motion detection feature on millions of its newer home routers.

WiFi Motion is a free feature that turns newer Xfinity Gateways into motion sensors by detecting interruptions to the WiFi signal of the wireless network and sending a notification through the Xfinity app, according to TechCrunch .

Comcast unveiled the feature as part of Xfinity Shield, a home security platform built around the WiFi network, and it turns the leased gateway into a motion detector at no extra charge, according to a ZeroHedge report.

Comcast said WiFi Motion works "without recording video, capturing images, or identifying individuals," according to the report.

The company's terms state that Comcast "may disclose information generated by your WiFi Motion to third parties without further notice" in connection with law enforcement investigations, the report said. Comcast said a typical customer has roughly 36 devices connected to their WiFi. 

WiFi Motion works because a human body moving through a room disturbs the signal field between the gateway and stationary connected devices, such as a printer or a game console, according to Comcast's rollout materials. The feature is opt-in and, according to Comcast, does not track phones or reach through WiFi extenders.

Comcast's rollout materials stated that those limitations are choices made in software, not limitations of the technology itself.

The detection method relies on signals that have been part of WiFi networks for more than a decade....<<<<Read More>>>....

Can an AI Chatbot Ever ‘Get’ a Joke?

 “A prevalent malady of our age is to think of the mind as a computer” – Professor Sir Anthony Kenny.

The late science editor of the Daily Telegraph, Adrian Berry, used to get a laugh by telling the following apocryphal anecdote.

An AI is asked to write a short story with the popular themes of religion, aristocracy, mystery and sex:

“Good Lord!” screamed the Duchess, “I’m pregnant! Whodunnit!?”

First time I heard this I was working on my PhD on the metaphysics of consciousness and the viability of conscious machines. I wondered at the time if the hypothetical silicon wordsmith would understand why she’d been so inadvertently and very mildly amusing.

Can a machine, even in principle, ever get a joke? Not tell one, for clearly it can do that, but get one?

Jokes have not been taken seriously enough by the philosophers. Neither have the deeper essences of amusement, humour and laughter more generally, come to that.

When People Know Power Ultimately Lies in Themselves, That’s Real Democracy

 What is politics, but the way human groups make collective decisions? The barriers to solving any of the world’s problems are political, not technical. If there is no political hope, then there is no hope, period.

Where is hope to be found? Pardon the cliché—it is to be found in democracy. In this one-hour conversation Indy Rishi Singh and Charles Eisenstein explore, among other things, what democracy is and isn’t using two recent examples: India and Ecuador. In both places, a massive popular movement has succeeded in stopping and reversing horrible government policies.

In Ecuador, a mass indigenous-led movement has gained concessions from the right-wing neoliberal government following a nation-wide strike. Campesino families, from grandmothers to little children, mobilised to block roadways and paralyse transportation. Huge crowds converged upon the cities, braving police violence to make business-as-usual impossible. The government capitulated. It agreed to the movement’s demands to halt new mining and oil and gas drilling in national parks, indigenous territories, and water supply areas, and gave indigenous people veto power over future projects.

This is really good news for the Amazon rainforest, where the resource extraction was to have occurred. And, mining and drilling cause devastation beyond the ecological. As the roads and machines encroach, traditional livelihoods and ways of life deteriorate, bringing alcoholism, domestic violence, and poverty. The indigenous are defending not only their territories, but their very culture....<<<Read More>>>...

Chlorine-washed and chemically soaked: The hidden truth behind America’s chicken supply

 Conventional U.S. chicken is often soaked in chlorine and other antimicrobial chemical baths to reduce contamination—a practice the European Union has banned since 1997.

U.S. regulations do not require poultry processors to disclose chemical washes on packaging, leaving consumers unaware of what their meat has absorbed.

Industrial processors prioritize speed over hygiene, with large facilities handling up to 2 million birds daily, necessitating chemical interventions to compensate for poor sanitation.

Many conventional chickens are injected with water, salt and phosphates, increasing weight by up to 15%, meaning consumers pay for liquid rather than meat.

Pushing Away Emotions

 Throughout our lives, we may experience emotions that disturb or distress us. Often, our first reaction is to push our feelings away. We may say, “I don’t want to think about that right now — I’ll think about it later,” and we bury our emotions, deny the validity of our feelings, or distract ourselves with other concerns. But the diverse emotions we experience are neither good nor bad — they’re simply a part of being human. Choosing not to experience pain, anger, or other intense feelings could cause those emotions to become buried deep in our physical body. They may linger there, unresolved and unable to emerge, even as they affect the way we experience the world. Allowing ourselves to experience all of our emotions rather than push the more painful ones away can help us come to terms with our feelings so we can experience them and then move on.

It’s possible to bring forth the old feelings you’ve pushed aside and experience them in a safe and enriching way. It may sound silly to set aside time to feel your old wounds that you haven’t dealt with, but this can be a very beneficial healing experience. Find a safe place and pick a time when you can be alone. Make sure that you feel secure and comfortable in your surroundings. Bring to mind the circumstances that originally triggered the emotions you’ve been pushing away. You may need to revisit these circumstances by reading relevant entries in your journal or using visualization to relive your past. Once you have triggered your long-denied emotions, let yourself feel your feelings, and try not to judge your reactions. Cry or sound your emotions if you need to, and don’t block the flow of your feelings. Allow any thoughts that are connected to your emotions to surface. As you release the feelings you have pushed inside of you, you’ll find yourself healing from the experience associated with these emotions.

When you deal with your feelings directly, they can move through you rather than staying stopped up in your body as emotional blocks that can sometimes turn into disease. Acknowledging your emotions instead of pushing them away allows you to stay emotionally healthy and in touch with your feelings....<<<Read More>>>...

Astral Projection: Just a Mind Trip?

  The idea that humans can leave their bodies during dream states is ancient. Countless people, from New Agers to shamans around the world, believe that it is possible to commune with cosmic intelligence through visions and vivid dreams experienced during astral projection, also known as out-of-body experiences. Surveys suggest that between 8 and 20 percent of people claim to have had something like an out-of-body experience at some point in their lives — a sensation of the consciousness, spirit, or "astral body" leaving the physical body. While most experiences occur during sleep or under hypnosis, some people claim to do it while merely relaxing.


It may be a profound experience, but the fundamental problem is that there's really no way to scientifically measure whether or not a person's spirit "leaves" or "enters" the body. The simplest and best explanation for out-of-body experiences is that the person is merely fantasizing and dreaming. Because there is no scientific evidence that consciousness can exist outside of the brain, astral projection is rejected by scientists.

Why hasn't astral projection been proven scientifically? Some claim it's because mainstream scientists are closed-minded and refuse to even look at evidence that doesn't fit their narrow worldview. However, in science those who disprove dominant theories are rewarded, not punished.

The WHO’s High-Price Pandemic Plan Is Built on Smoke and Mirrors

 The recent release of Anthony Fauci’s diaries, followed by his refusal to answer questions in an appearance before a US Senate committee by invoking the Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination 111 times, highlighted a stark divide in how the Covid pandemic was handled by public health authorities. This is as true of Australia as of the US.

Repeatedly, against the certainty expressed in public to justify official statements on the origins of the virus and on lockdown, mask and vaccine policies, their private contemporaneous conversations confirm that even the top scientists were making decisions based on scientific uncertainty.

Consequently, one of the key legacies of the public-private gap is growing distrust of official claims. That scepticism should extend to the future pandemic agenda. We rely on the World Health Organisation to co-ordinate among countries to prevent scourges such as pandemics reaching our shores, or at least mitigate their effects. In doing so, we must defer to an army of international bureaucrats who work in such institutions – a deference that relies on trust.

Their salaries and careers depend on convincing us to part with more of our money to support their work. Yet, according to a new article on international pandemic financing in the Cambridge journal Health Economics, Policy and Law, the WHO and World Bank rely on dubious assumptions to calculate the return-on-investment case on which all major international efforts to mitigate future pandemics rely.

This should alarm governments. Mitigation is worth investing in, as pandemics will occur from time to time. But the article shows that current investments will have an overall detrimental effect on global health. Most starkly, it suggests a deep rot in the quality of institutions we rely on as stewards of this commonly accepted global good....<<<Read More>>>...

The Legendary Emerald Tablet

The origins of Western alchemy can be traced back to Hellenistic Egypt, in particular to the city of Alexandria. One of the most important characters in the mythology of alchemy is Hermes Trismegistus (Hermes the Thrice-Great). The name of this figure is derived from the Egyptian god of wisdom, Thoth and his Greek counterpart, Hermes. The Hermetica, which is said to be written by Hermes Trismegistus, is generally regarded as the basis of Western alchemical philosophy and practice. In addition, Hermes Trismegistus is also believed to be the author of the Emerald Tablet. The Emerald Tablet is said to be a tablet of emerald or green stone inscribed with the secrets of the universe. The source of the original Emerald Tablet is unclear, hence it is surrounded by legends. The most common legend claims that the tablet was found in a caved tomb under the statue of Hermes in Tyana, clutched in the hands of the corpse of Hermes Trismegistus himself. Another legend suggests that it was the third son of Adam and Eve, Seth, who originally wrote it. Others believed that the tablet was once held within the Ark of the Covenant. Some even claim that the original source of the Emerald Tablet is none other than the fabled city of Atlantis.,,read more>>>...

The Climate Debate Was Never About Saving the Planet vs Doing Nothing – it Was Always About Statism vs the Free Market

 In a recent monologue on climate change, LBC radio host James O’Brien hit out at politicians opposing Net Zero, framing them as in denial of objective reality. To many on that side of the debate, a simple opposition to EV mandates, dietary changes, ULEZ, accelerated deindustrialisation, or any other harmful policies associated with Net Zero is a rallying cry of climate denial. They tell us how many jobs the Government is creating, and how good for everyone the Climate Change Committee’s advice will be.

Anyone suffering high energy costs and industry layoffs can see that promises of Net Zero bringing prosperity are plainly untrue.

While niche left-wing blogs might accuse us all of climate vandalism, the reality is far removed from this. I am not a climate denier, nor have I ever been one. Millions of Net Zero sceptics aren’t either; many realise that what was once an aspirational target has now hardened into a stifling reality. Some of us didn’t grasp it in 2019, when the Climate Change Act amendment was passed, but the blatant statism that goes along with a statutory target of Net Zero by 2050 is now hard to deny....<<<Read More>>>...

Don’t Date Someone Who Took the mRNA Jab… That’s Not Shallow, It’s Survival

 Some choices in life are matters of taste. Others are matters of survival. Who you choose to date, marry, and build a family with is the single most consequential biological decision you will ever make -- because it determines the genetic future of your children. That's why many informed people won't date someone who took the mRNA jab. That's not shallow, it's discernment.

We are living through the largest uncontrolled gene-therapy experiment in human history. The mRNA injections were rushed to market without long-term safety testing, driven by pharmaceutical profit and regulatory capture. The long-term consequences remain unknown and potentially extremely risk for genetic integrity and reproduction.

Every intimate relationship is a potential bloodline merger. And when one half of that merger carries experimental mRNA instructions that were never tested for generational safety, the verdict writes itself: this is not a romance; it's a roll of the dice.

The science is no longer hidden. Scientists at Lund University discovered that mRNA from the Pfizer shot can be reverse-transcribed into DNA in human liver cells. Biodistribution studies show mRNA complexes travel throughout the body, entering cell nuclei and causing chromosomal alterations in liver cells. This is not immunity. This is genetic modification (gene therapy). And when germ cells are exposed to these synthetic instructions, the damage does not stop with the person who volunteered -- it becomes a family inheritance.

Refusing to date the injected is not hate. It is self-respect. It is the only sane response to a technology that turns human beings into genetically modified spike protein factories....<<<Read More>>>....

 

People Covered Their Mirrors Every Night Before 1880 — What They Were Afraid of Seeing

 

Emotional Hunger

 Our bodies are like living temples and deserve all the love and care we can give them. Amazingly flexible and strong, they allow us to experience the world. If we notice that we’re not feeling our best, that we’ve put on extra weight, or that our favorite clothes don’t fit, we can make the choice to be good to ourselves in a new way today.

There are times when we become conscious of a deeper hunger that won’t be satisfied physically. Often, this is a signal that our emotional needs are asking to be met — perhaps we are carrying the weight of past experiences, chronic stress, or unmet needs. Instead of viewing this as a battle to be won with restriction, we can approach these moments with healing and self-compassion. By gently acknowledging the emotional root causes of our cravings, we can make healthier choices from a place of love, nurturing our inner well-being rather than just managing what is on our plates.

When we treat ourselves and our bodies as we would a trusted and loyal companion, we keep our energy free from negative thoughts that would complicate our journey. Our bodies are not our enemies, and we are not fighting a battle. Instead, we’re investing our attention into the care and support of a beautiful creation: our own selves. With this shift of perspective, we can create a more sustainable path where health becomes a natural byproduct of self-love. (Daily OM)
