We are, by our physical nature, in relationship with everyone and everything around us. In authentic, open, heartbased relationships, we are simultaneously teacher and student. It’s the ultimate “give and take” arrangement. Each party shares with, and learns from the other – not only regardless of one’s background, but because of the distinctness and uniqueness of each individual’s experiences. Inevitably, many relationships do run into some difficult periods. While some may perceive these times as our “Dark night of the soul,” Carolyn Gervais writes in Getting to the Heart of True Freedom, that “the challenges we face in life are actually our greatest opportunities and our greatest gifts because they force us to face our fears.” Ideally, “the need to overcome your fear overpowers the fear itself … this is true freedom.” Just ask anyone who has come out the other side of a “challenging” divorce. Alan Cohen posits Every Belief System Gives Way to a Greater One. The beliefs we so tightly clutch today, will over time (with critical thinking and discernment), be modified or perhaps completely replaced. The paradigms that serve you now will evolve and expand. Think science, religion, spirituality, etc. In mid January, Andrea & I attended The Real Truth About Health Conference, hosted by Brian Clement, director of the Hippocrates Health Institute. A dozen top health authorities presented during this 3-day New York City event. Author of the book, Whitewash, Joseph Keon spoke on “The Disturbing Truth about Cow’s Milk and Your Health.” Michael Greger, MD presented a highly illuminating, and entertaining “15 Leading Causes of Death.” He offered compelling case study evidence that virtually all of these conditions/diseases can be not only stopped, but it has also been proven that the damage suffered can be reversed by switching to a completely plant-based diet. Dr. Greger emphasized the elimination of ALL animal foods, including eggs and dairy. Jeffrey M. Smith, consumer health advocate, promoting non-GMO choices, and author (Seeds of Deception), also created the documentary, Genetic Roulette, The Gamble of Our Lives. The film links genetically engineered food to toxic and allergic reactions, infertility, digestive disorders, and a litany of other conditions that have been steadily rising (e.g. gluten-intolerance) in the U.S. since genetically modified organisms (GMOs) were introduced. GMOs pose an enormous environmental threat because there are no technological solutions to stop their migration to other crops. Our food choices are the ONLY solution: if you don’t buy ‘em, Monsanto et al won’t plant ‘em. You’ve got to watch this movie!
