What The Bleep Do We Know?

A good friend and mentor of mine, Susan Hutchins, told me last year about a documentary to watch for, "What The Bleep Do We Know" http://www.whatthebleep.com . I appreciated this film for using science and physics to affirm the value and the power of prayer. It also emphasized getting rid of addictions in our life will help us live at a higher level of being. Duh, most of us would say but to see it explained scientifically is an interesting perspective.

The movie uses actress, Marlee Matlin, to play an unhappy woman, who has been hurt and show the downward spiral she was engaged or addicted to and how by praying for and loving herself with positive words took her to another state of being, free from her anger and medications. I highly recommend this movie. Kids 13 or over would benefit. It does go into some explanations on sexuality.

Super Size Me!

This is a movie that contains "Hope, Health & Humor" if I ever saw one. I bow to the master of this award winning documentary www.supersizeme.com . I am so happy that Morgan Spurlock has found a way to reach both adults and kids alike. This film will create change for the better in homes and in the school's food system. As I am writing this I just got a call from a high school student asking me for resourses to help her present a case to the school system to change the food. YES!.

This young man literally risked his life, to create this documentary, which provides sound scientific proof that McDonald's fast food is both addicting and dangerous. He went on a 30 day diet of McDonald's for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The before and afters of his blood work are outrageous. The test don't lie.

Watch this film and be an eye witness to the crime of fast food in our nation. Watch or better yet BUY this film, so you can remind yourself and your family of this priceless lesson.

Found a new site

Yesterday, while surfing the net, I found a new site for people who are either natural health practitioners or people interestered in alternative health, cultures, religions/spirituality and so on. They post events around the world and allow member to create their own personal profiles, with no cost to them, almost like a dating site (Not that I have ever been on one those). You can even link to any sites you operate that relate somehow to these topics. The site is http://www.godeo.org. They were nice enough to allow me to post a photo of "Open My Eyes, Open My Soul" with a little write up and they sent it to all their members. I checked their traffic on Alexa and they are a fairly high traffic site. I look forward to using them as a resource for posting future events, and soon they will start posting articles too.
