“In the “war” on cancer, we are fighting a losing battle for one simple reason: We’re focusing on the wrong target. As a physician I was trained to focus on the tumor–to burn, poison or cut it out, and then wait, watch and pray for the cancer to stay at bay. Newer gene-targeted treatments will help to improve chemotherapy and improve survival rates, but they won’t prevent cancer in the first place or even prevent it from coming back once you’ve had it. Hope is not the only way to straddle the scary territory between remission and recurrence. There is a different way of thinking about how to treat the system, not just the cancer that holds promise for a proactive approach to helping both prevent occurrence as well as recurrence…”

In Manhattan, NY, major players in the diabetic community such as the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation and the American Diabetes Association as well as newly developed charities like Diabetic Rockstar/Fight-It.org will be present at the United Nations to observe and voice their concerns about various pressing issues.

Gene Krackehl brings us another great article. “Who among us hasn’t experienced that excruciating, debilitating, numbing, devastating feeling of loss? Death can sometimes brings about that sensation but sometimes a loved one’s disappearance is even harder to bear when it was their own decision to leave you…Love is who and what we are and is what connects us. It’s really all there is. God is love, and so are you!”

“ Shelley Yates and her young son were both killed in an auto accident. The story is riveting. While she was “on the other side” the Beings of Light told her how to bring her son back to life and that our planet is dying and what she could do to help jumpstart its healing by using the same approach they instructed her to do with her son who was restored to life. Her message is simple and heart gripping. Live in the moment. Enjoy every experience. There is no harm in pleasure. It’s what we were put here to do; to feel love, excitement, joy…”

“Earthing introduces the planet’s powerful, amazing, and overlooked natural healing energy and how people anywhere can readily connect to it.

This never-before-told story-filled with fascinating research and real-life testimonials- chronicles a discovery with the potential to create a global health revolution.”

“Your omentum is the pouch that contains your belly fat. The extra weight you are carrying on your omentum begins to squeeze your kidneys. Your blood pressure raises and your liver fattens; the accumulation of this fat characterizes nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. This added weight leaves your liver unable to process toxins. Over time, your liver hardens, and scar tissue begins to build up to replace liver cells. This scarring is called cirrhosis, which leaves you feeling tired and groggy. Weight loss will allow your liver to recover. As it repairs itself, it decreases the toxins in your body. You’ll see changes in how you feel and behave.”

Richard Harvey answers questions about personal problems, therapy and spiritual goals. “Teaching spiritual wisdom and practices is simply referring you to your inner understanding, which is innate in you as a human being. I distinguish between the act of teaching and assuming the role of teacher, because everyone should be their own teacher.”

“We are the heroes and heroines on a voyage toward wholeness. That’s a part of what we’re here to do. We choose and chart a path of discovery we all must take in degrees throughout our lives to grow, and achieve balance and harmony. Achieving that is the equivalent to the spiritual Holy Grail Cup and the Philosopher’s Stone. We have much to unlearn and much more to learn. Raise the Grail Cup to us all, and for heaven’s sake, don’t forget to dance!”

“Happiness was found in the connection to others yes, but also to that which for so long had been forgotten — the spirit or soul of me, the part that connects to an even greater spirit or oneness to which we all belong. It was the spirit of me that had the same needs and desires as those I was reaching out to. I needed to know of my own value and worth. I needed to know of the meaning and purpose to my life. I needed to know the reason for living, for dying, and for all which occurs in between. It was that longing for the truths to our existence that eventually led to uniting the mind, body and soul of me…”
