Have you looked around lately? If you have actually taken a moment to simply, and honestly, observe the world as it is, you may be asking, "What is happening in the world?" Do you feel like something isn't quite right? Are we as a society really doing the best we can? Why is it this way? Have you ever gazed at the stars and wondered if there is more to life than what we have been told? Is this all there is to life? If you have asked such questions to a parent or a teacher, you have most likely been told, “that’s just the way it is” or “that’s just human nature.” Perhaps you have heard others defend the status quo by insisting that the way our society currently functions is the only way order can be maintained in the world.
How we got here
Life is the one thing that we all share in common. The human species has developed in many ways, in a relatively short amount of time. Setting us apart from other species, it began at our ability to wield and control fire. We were able to successfully use fire to cook food, stay warm, and defend for ourselves. This ability created a cushion between us and our daily exposure to nature, which has grown over the course of human evolution. As our brains developed, our skills enhanced, eventually allowing us to thrive. We succeeded so well that we became the apex predator. However, as we continued to advance, that cushion grew so large, we now view nature as something separate from ourselves. But now we are faced with a pandemic, attempting to fix the problems that we have created. How is it that we can bring balance to our progressive growth to remain healthy coexisting with Earth, for the present and future generations? In order to answer this, we must go back to our roots.
Every human on the planet shares a genetic history and connects us with our ancestors. Although, we have encountered a shift in consciousness. We have entered a technological era where we have lost our aboriginal wisdom regarding the plants (e.g., creating herbal remedies), the animals (e.g., hunting techniques), and the planet as a whole (e.g., generational sustainability).

Where we are
At this particular moment in history, we as a global society confront threats to our existence that our forebears never imagined, an earth that is being degraded by the sheer fact of our existence and shortsighted choices. The world faces an unprecedented health and environmental crisis. Only through willful blindness can one not be aware of the challenges we face - polluted air and water, exploding populations, habitat and species loss, water scarcity, murderous ideologies, resource depletion, endless wars of choice, ethnic and religious hatreds, all abetted by the "Every man for himself" philosophy that currently infects our society. New diseases and epidemics have emerged, family and social conflicts have increased, and ecological threats have multiplied and spread, imperiling humanity's biological and spiritual evolution, as well as the future of other life on this planet. Personal and planetary health are inseparable, and at the heart of this escalating crisis is the integrity of the world's food supply. The advent of genetic engineering, cloning, food irradiation, microwave cooking, artificial electromagnetic fields, and other new technologies has radically changed the way humans are lived, fed their families, and managed their health for thousands of years, violating millions of years of natural order. Collectively, we are experiencing a modern evolutionary crisis which includes, but is not limited to, the destruction of the environment, including desertification, the thinning of the ozone layer, the onset of human-compounded climate change, the spread of infectious, degenerative, and immune-deficiency diseases, and all of this is threatens the continued existence of our species.
If you're like many others, you may be feeling confused and uncertain about the current state of our world. If there was a word to describe the nature and functionality of the various societal structures that surround us, "instability" would be appropriate. Although, perspective is everything. Therefore, we can look at the world as one of two ways: the glass half full or or the glass half empty. Since it is easier to evaluate what is wrong in any situation, let's start with the dark side.

The DArk side
Indeed, these are times of tremendous stress and tumultuous transformation. As previously mentioned, some of the largest issues that plague the majority of the world's populations are poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, inequality, unsanitary living conditions, unsustainable energy production, economic depressions, collapsing infrastructure, war, destruction of the rain forests, extinction of land and marine animals, climate change, among other issues. The world economy is in a state of constant flux and confusion, accounting woes have wreaked havoc with the public's trust and faith in big business, layoffs continue to create more uncertainty, and the jobless rate grows daily as many people wonder how they will make a living. Rampant "dis-ease" among animals and humans poses a staggering worldwide health crisis, politics reeks of insiders' dark deals, war drums drone on and on, nuclear attacks and terrorism rank as the number one threats in the controlled media, the increase of sexual violence and acts of perversion grows more blatant, the debt-to-credit ratio is completely unsustainable, and theft, fraud, cheating, and lying are commonly cited qualities of a very corrupt leadership worldwide. It appears that so-called leaders have failed in their assigned duty to uphold liberty and champion freedom as civic responsibilities. In a world of mass confusion, we desperately need a reliable, accurate, objectively verifiable yardstick to measure truth with. The really grave danger to society lies in the silent and invisible entertainment that stealthily conquers the psyche. Unfortunately, our entertainment, using the manipulation of symbols, tends to trade of emotional sensationalism, and therefore gravitates towards violence. Despite, social media companies claiming we are more connected, we find ourselves less connected and more lonely. And worst of all, we've have near-completely severed our connection to nature. It seems like at this stage, everyone is beginning to wonder why the world is in turmoil. Given all of these unfortunate circumstances, believe it or not, this is an excellent sign. Each of us seeing these issues has been offered an opportunity to be the change we wish to see in the world.
The Bright Side
You are living in a time when opportunities for self-empowerment, expanded awareness, and spiritual growth appear to be unlimited.
Expanding awareness is sweeping the globe with astounding momentum, stimulating humanity on a cellular level to wake up and discover its power. Whether it be the natural flow of where we are headed or the population induced direction due to unrest, our economic, governmental, political environmental and healthcare models (etc.) are clearly in a state of decline and transition as the population begins to wake up to the true nature of each societal structure. This awakening is being driven by a shift in consciousness, cosmic factors such as cosmic rays and solar activity, and by a soul decision each one of us is making out of a greater realization that we have out grown our current experience we are co-creating here on earth. Understanding the power of beliefs and the power of the mind, both individually and en masse, is a pressing and critical issue. Recognizing these two important keys of knowledge can open human consciousness to a new worldview of unlimited possibilities and highly creative solutions. This can be seen and felt by how little sense the world seems to make these days and by feeling the need to change it - such as you reading this right now. That change is coming from within and is tough for many of us to ignore. Accepting responsibility for the power we each embody is an essential and important lesson. We have the science, ancient knowledge and spiritual confirmations that what is taking place here is the mass awakening of the entire population that will cause unprecedented change on the planet. 150 years of scientific thinking is now being overturned by ancient sites that rewrite human history, DNA clues question our true origins, proof that we are all connected on a quantum level, and evidence that emotions affect our physical reality. It’s not a matter of if this is happening, but when we are willing to accept and embrace the reality. Millions are already engaged in this shift and each day, as more and more become aware of what is happening, we open ourselves up to a world of possibility. The most important element in facilitating upward movement in consciousness is an attitude of willingness. New discoveries that will change the way you will think are waiting to be found. You have only to discover what you already know.

Where were going: Two paths, One choice
We must find new sustainable ways for us to thrive. Most people think that the world's problems are too big to tackle. However, we must do this, and nothing less. Complaining about the world and doing nothing about it is unacceptable. This is our world, and these are our problems to solve. Our governments are not getting it done. Today businesses are shaping the world, so if we want to change things we need to look at how we do business. Money fuels the economy, but profit at any cost will cost us everything.
The world is now splitting into two directions. The first is respecting nature, traditional wisdom, and natural order. The second is oriented toward artificial intervention into natural processes. Our natural evolution on this planet will end if the second path prevails. Unless we awaken to the spreading chaos around us, the earth will be engulfed by a biological catastrophe of its own making.
Our species and the planet as a whole are in urgent need of healing. As will be discussed in great detail throughout this website, the outer environment is a reflection of the of the inner environment and that the key to the health and environmental crisis is a return to a more natural way of life. Personal and planetary health are indivisible. When one person is nourished, the whole planets benefits. When the Earth prospers, each person is energized and refreshed. We can create a world of universal health, happiness, and peace in harmony with natural order for endless generations.
As this website is an example, modern society is beginning to take positive steps to redress the balance. The health revolution is now spreading. This includes organic farming and the environmental movement. Communications networks are elevating consciousness. Through the internet, information on health, conscious cooking, and mindful movement, is easily exchanged, and there is the potential to reach every home or community directly through this technology. New alternative approaches to health and wellness have emerged that emphasize healing with energy and vibration, and living a natural way of life.

"If you think we can't change the world,
it just means that you're not one of those who will."
Jacque Fresco
Now that we have both sides of the story, we can begin to choose which path we want to continue on. We each have a choice; there is no right or wrong choice. Our collective choices form the world that we are a part of. If you decide to continue on the dark side, so be it. If you envision a different world, one that is filled with abundance for all, great! If we wish to be successful at creating the world we desire, we must begin to form a plan of action.
A Plan of Action
The problems listed above form an awfully large pill to swallow, and it may be overwhelming to attempt to think of a way out, a plan of action - after all it is the entire world. You are probably asking "what can I do?" Well, you're already on the right track.
You now have a blueprint to begin changing the world. But before you can go out and fix the world, you must start with your own backyard. As selfish as it seems, you must help yourself first. If you take care of you for me, I will take care of me for you. Once we each are in a state of healthy living, we can cohesively come together, peacefully coexist, and create the progressive change we envision.
The first step to the plan of action is start balancing your own life. Balancing your life implies that you are going to become the healthiest, happiest version of yourself that you can be. Easier said than done, right? Where does one begin to achieve such a status? Don't worry - there is only one place to begin. Balancing your life begins with your dream, your purpose, your why - because without a dream to live towards, it is easy to give up when you encounter obstacles. Let's change the world, one step at a time. Begin your journey to optimal wellness, so that we can create progressive change at the level of the individual, to ultimately build a better community and world.
- Be Mindful and Spread Awareness
You cannot change what you do not know - one first has to have the capacity to recognize the difference between truth and falshood. The sole mission of this website is to increase mindfulness, or awareness, in an effort to cultivate wellness, at the level of the individual, community, the world and beyond. Knowledge is sacred and the choice to be informed is a revealing test of the times. Awareness is a state of mind. Expanding your mind to penetrate the deeper meanings of life is not only liberating, it is crucial to your well-being, for knowledge and power inevitably determines the course of your personal and collective life. The reality is, the more we learn about how our world really works and spread this awareness and information to others, the easier it will be to create a critical mass of people with the knowledge to begin doing things differently. Most of us are still unaware of the fact that things can be different and that the way things are currently is not of the best interest of all. To become more conscious is the greatest gift anyone can give to the world; moreover, in a ripple effect, the gift comes back to the source. Any increased infusion of the influence of truth into the collective human consciousness gives us cause for greater hope.
How: By reading this page, you have already started becoming more aware. Share this information with others. Get access to information that reveals important information we need to know. Use social media and conversation to spread this awareness to others. - Recognize, You Are Powerful!
The first step to change the world is recognizing that the world we live in is made up of 8 billion people, just like, yet uniquely different than, you. We each have a purpose. We each have power, together our power is palpable. Whether you acknowledge it or not, whether you life it or not, we all are co-creating this world. Recognizing your power to make an influence and change the world is paramount, because without that we are powerless. One example that demonstrates the power you have is the concept of voting with you dollar. Every time we spend money on something we are casting a vote. By supporting companies, products and organizations that are not in alignment with creating a clean and peaceful world, we are essentially voting for what they represent and for the world they are creating with their products. For example: If we support GMO foods in any form, we are voting not only for unhealthy foods but for environmental degradation and the empowerment of companies who do not care about our world. Or, if a company is creating products with materials that are harmful to environment and we buy them, we are keeping them in business and are essentially voting for this to continue. Don’t be afraid to spend a little extra on the products of companies who are doing things harmoniously, this assists everyone in the long run.
How: Support organic and local foods as much as you can. Don’t buy products that test on animals. Try and stay away from companies who support slave labor. Think before you buy certain products and perform some quick research into how certain products are made. In some cases we have no sustainable option yet, but in many cases we do, seek them out. Your purchases not only affect you but the entire world. - Embrace That Together, We Are Unstoppable!
Use and embrace the power that we, humanity, have together as a unit. If you look around the world at all the protests that have taken place and what they achieved, you find out very quickly that the people have a lot of power when joined together. Whether it be in our own communities or on a global scale, the people have the right and power to choose what kind of world we want to create. Begin creating groups, meetups, communities and so forth, that are geared towards creating change. One very powerful example of group related change was when 22 million people from around the world marched against Monsanto. These protests played a large role in raising awareness about GMOs and could have played a large role in having GMOs banned in many countries around the world. Awareness can be raised on a number of issues like free energy, government corruption, new societal ideas etc. We have the power, lets use it!
How: Use social media to get together under various causes. Be a leader in organizing something and you will find many other leaders will join you. - Create Community.
Creating communities and using them effectively is a big part of our future. Right now, many of us think about our own lives and do what we can as an individual. While this can be helpful, getting together in communities and utilizing resources, skills and ideas of a group can get things done much faster, more effectively and on a larger scale. There is so much that we can learn from one another and the reality is, many people around you are probably having the same thoughts about creating change that you are, they don’t speak about it for the same reasons you might not, people might think they are too ‘out there.’ The reality is, millions of people are having these thoughts and its time to put them out in the open and begin working together.
How: Meet your neighbors. Create community projects and gardens. Build greenhouse projects or work on new ideas together. As we bring together our ideas and resources, we not only spread knowledge about new ideas but also bring them into being faster. - Opt Out Of The System Any Way You Can.
Our participation in the system is like voting for it to stick around the way it is. Instead of fighting it, we can simply opt out and leave it behind. There are a number of ways to opt out including many of the things discussed above. The more we don’t play within the confines of the system, the less power it has.
How: Until centralized voting actually changes something, don’t vote. Begin carpooling and sharing resources so we don’t require as much from the system. Utilize means to get off the grid as much as possible. Collecting rain water is one example of this. Growing your own food also removes your dependencies from the system. - Open Your Mind and Shift Your Perspective
Anytime we start from within by changing our own views, perception and consciousness around an issue, we not only change the energy around the situation, but we also affect others as they see and feel our new perceptions. In this way, we are a lot more powerful than we think as we are literally being and emanating change. Our world manifests and adjusts very quickly in our current times. Time seems to speed up and move very quickly, this allows even small changes in consciousness and the way people think to begin creating new systems and structures in our world. Our consciousness and worldview created our world today. By shifting our consciousness, it begins to shift our physical world as the old world begins to not make sense any longer. Many people around the world are already feeling that the world today does not make sense, this is what it feels like to have your consciousness shift. Like quantum physics is showing us, shifting our consciousness or world view is a key facet to creating change in our world.
How: Practice individual reflection simply by seeing how you think and react in various situations. Question your beliefs about your perceptions of yourself and the world around you. Practice meditation and learning to connect with your inner self. Write in a journal to put your feelings and thoughts on paper, sometimes this is very helpful in expressing and seeing how you feel inside. Look into quantum physics to see first hand how this works. - Be Patient and Persistent
The adage "Rome wasn't built in a day" offers some insight. The current state of our world did not manifest overnight, it took generations of time to get here. Therefore, a prerequisite to tackling the world's problems lies in acknowledging that progressive change at any level will not happen overnight, we must be patience and persistent. Any goal worth while is not going to be easy, otherwise we would have already achieved it. Plus, instant gratification eliminates the point of learning and growing from how we got here in the first place.
How: Maintain a positive attitude. Understand that bad days will happen. No one is perfect, and we each will fall. But it's how fast you get back up that matters. Don't let a bad day turn into a bad week. See through the fear that litters the media. Small actions taken every day can reap massive results. Start with one small goal, and let that goal progress to more goals. Consistency is key.
You now have a blueprint to begin changing the world. But before you can go out and fix the world, you must start with your own backyard. As selfish as it seems, you must help yourself first. If you take care of you for me, I will take care of me for you. Once we each are in a state of healthy living, we can cohesively come together, peacefully coexist, and create the progressive change we envision.
