What is Mindfulness, by Linda Lehrhaupt, PhD

Mindfulness meditation has been described in many ways in recent years, but I still find that one of the definitions by Jon Kabat-Zinn, the founder of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, is very helpful. He says that mindfulness is “paying attention on purpose in the present moment, non-judgmentally. He added in an interview on YouTube…“as if your life depended on it.”

Kathleen Marden – Leading UFO Researcher

A few years ago I had the great privilege to interview Kathleen Marden for a Merlian News Podcast. Kathleen, the niece of the famous UFO abductee Betty Hill, is a leading UFO researcher, author, and lecturer. She was a wonderful guest, very passionate and informed about her topic, and I came away believing that there was great validity in her research and experience. After that interview I became increasingly interested in her work, and began following her career and her website www.kathleen-marden.com

Biogeometry: The Science of Using Shapes to Affect Our Energy Fields

So what happens when you spend your whole day surrounded by the electrical impulses they create?  There’s been a growing concern about the effects on the human body of being constantly bombarded by these waves of energy, including from the 5G towers that communicate with all these machines.

Everyday Wellness: How Women Can Take Back Control of Their Lives One Step at a Time

You wake up to an alarm that feels more like a demand than a reminder. The to-do list starts running before your feet even hit the ground, and the day often ends in exhaustion, not satisfaction. For many women, the daily grind isn’t just about work or family—it’s the constant mental checklist of everything they’re expected to manage, fix, or finesse. But what if you could start rewriting that rhythm? Wellness doesn’t have to be grand or expensive. Sometimes, it’s about choosing small shifts that ripple into major changes.

Robert Waggoner on Lucid Dreaming

| review by Cheryl Shainmark

For the past seven years, Robert Waggoner has co-edited the quarterly journal, Lucid Dreaming Experience , and most recently has written a wonderful book titled Lucid Dreaming: Gateway to the Inner Self . He explains: “Through experimentation, I realized lucid dreaming could be used to get ‘unknown’ information; apparently from the deeper part of yourself or some kind of collective unconscious. Moreover, lucid dreaming could be used to explore deep spiritual concepts, focus healing intent on your body, seek out telepathic and precognitive information and learn about the nature of reality (from the unique perspective of being aware in the dream state). In my book, I take lucid dreamers to these deeper aspects of lucid dreaming…”

It’s June again, when the days get longer and the gardens are blooming. It’s a time for sunshine, BBQ, and, for many in the US, a time to march with pride in their local LGBTQ parade. The last Sunday in June was initially celebrated as ‘Gay Pride Day,’ but in major cities across the nation the ‘day’ soon grew to encompass a month-long series of events.

Revisiting the Seth Material

| by Merryn Jose

Reading the Seth Material was life changing for me! In the mid ’80s. my mother and I had been experiencing many of the same phenomena our whole lives. Someone recommended that I investigate Jane Roberts’ story of channeling material and I devoured that first book in one sitting. The Seth Material validated everything that had happened to me over the years and opened up the way I perceived the universe.

Is There an ‘All Natural’ Alternative to Antibiotics? by Susun Weed

| by Susun Weed

There are good reasons to use antibiotic drugs. That said, most physicians and healthcare professionals agree that they are often overused. The overuse of antibiotics has created “superbugs” that are immune to the most common antibiotics. But on a more personal level, antibiotics can wreak havoc on your own immune system and gastrointestinal tract. The good news is that there is an all-natural alternative to antibiotics that I’ve found to be very effective.
