I think we can overemphasize celebrities, sports stars, big name authors and teachers… missing the greatness that lies within our own communities and lives. Where does your greatness come through in your life?
Who are some of your everyday hero’s?
Leave your hero’s stories in the comment section, I’d loved to hear about them.
This year it is more important that you protect your children and loved ones from the flu vaccines than influenza itself. This article on Lew Rockwell discusses how:
The swine flu is simply another flu. It is not unusually deadly.
This is the first time both seasonal and pandemic flu vaccines will be administered. Both seasonal flu and swine flu vaccines will require two inoculations. This is because single inoculations have failed to produce sufficient antibodies. This is an admission that prior flu vaccines were virtually useless. Can you trust them this time?
Adjuvants are added to vaccines to boost production of antibodies but may trigger autoimmune reactions. Some adjuvants are mercury (thimerosal), aluminum and squalene. Why would you sign a consent form for your children to be injected with mercury, which is even more brain-toxic than lead?
This is the first year mock vaccines have been used to gain FDA approval. The vaccines that have been tested are not the same vaccines your children will be given.
Over-vaccination is a common practice now in America. American children are subjected to 29 vaccines by the age of two. Meanwhile, veterinarians have backed off of repeat vaccination in dogs because of observed side effects.
Modern medicine has no explanation for autism, despite its continued rise in prevalence. Yet autism is not reported among Amish children who go unvaccinated.
Researchers are warning that over-use of the flu vaccine and anti-flu drugs like Tamiflu and Relenza can apply genetic pressure on flu viruses and then they are more likely to mutate into a more deadly strain.
Most seasonal influenza A (H1N1) virus strains tested from the United States and other countries are now resistant to Tamiflu (oseltamivir). Tamiflu has become a nearly worthless drug against seasonal flu.
Public health officials are irresponsible in their omission of any ways to strengthen immunity against the flu. No options outside of problematic vaccines and anti-flu drugs are offered, despite the fact there is strong evidence that vitamins C and D activate the immune system and the trace mineral selenium prevents the worst form of the disease.
Taking what the earlier post from Andrew Harvey’s video’s series was asking… what is your heartbreak? What is it that at 3am you feel heartache about? Follow that. Serve that with your passion and love.
For me, its:
1. My Family… showing myself that family can be full of love, connection, enjoyment, and joy (with my wife Hannah and son Savar).
Our growing Son Savar
2. My Music… tuning into the Divine within me… listening and being played like a flute… or rather a guitar in my case. Riding the wave of the music. Ohh what a joy that is… I feel well used afterwards.
3. Adorata – Deepening in my experience of the Divine as well as healing my inner male and female psyche aspects and bringing this work to others, feeling that the deep seated problems in our world/society stem from this lack of connection the embodied divine and collaborative relationship of the inner male and inner female within.
4. Serving The Ikombe Project. I have felt since a child a yearning to connect deeply with an africa family or village as it were. This landed in my lap and I feel moved to serve the village of Ikombe, building a fund drive for food distribution to alleviate their famine.

When Hannah and I watched Brother Sun, Sister Moon the other night this part stuck with me…
Take some time to really watch, feel, and listen deeply to this series of video’s by Andrew Harvey (mystic, poet, author). I think Andrew Harvey is speaking to something so central and so important to what is occuring right now in our planet and in our hearts that we must listen. He speaks in a way that is honorable and true, with real steps you can take, feeling the pain of the whole gestalt we are in and the action that one can take without going into despair. Let me know what you take from it.
Since I was a child I loved going to the hairstylist. For many years, our family hair stylist was Cyndi. I loved her. Getting my hair cut was like a loving spiritual experience from a forgotten family aunt. I felt loved by how she touched my hair and how she could make it just right. Ever since then I have looked for those kind of hairstylists that could create a wonderful and loving setting for me to get my hair cut, a hard to find resource.
In recent years I have noticed as I cleaned up my diet from toxins, how many salons smelt horrible inside. The fumes from the chemicals were so toxic I had to leave. Just think how toxic it is for the hair practitioner, they are dowsing their skin and bodies in these chemicals all day long, not just the every 6 months I go. So recently I came upon a new salon in Ashland that opened this year called Renu Hair Salon.
Renu redefines the bar for what a true healthy and vibrant hair salon should and can be. Welcoming, caring, non-toxic (for example the paint on the wall), sustainable (low carbon footprint products and accessories), and full of wisdom freely shared on how to care for your hair in a sustainable and healthy way that includes nutrition.
Have you noticed how hair care products can be so toxic?
In another synchronicity, my wife and I recently received free bonuses from David Wolfe’s Longevity Now Program where he gave an audio talk on the importance of a naturally occurring sulfur and silica in ones diet for healthy hair. David taught that we have an increasing deficient diet in sulfur due to lack of wild foods dependent on rainwater in our diets. This lack can produce thinning hair as well as adverse affects on the quality and growth speed of our hair.
Some key Hair HealthSuperfoods are rich in sulphur: spirulina, hemp seed, bee pollen, goji berries,phytho plankton, chlorella, maca found in their sulfur bearing amino acids. Also 5000-7500 mg of MSM per day on the right day – moon waxing toward full, you’ll see changes in 2 weeks. (There has been good study on the cycles of the moon and planets and how that affects your hair growth).
Also some key Hair Health Herbs to take to increase hair health are nettles, rosehips powdered and rosehips seed oil, and horsetail.
Some key Hair HealthFoods: the skin of cucumbers, tomatos, bell peppers, and Okra. Also wheatgrass when older than two weeks (around 3 weeks).

You can listen to the program here (after I get his okay to share it – I will tell you when):
I just had a great breakfast superfood smoothie, yummy fresh green salad from our local CSA farm with edible flowers, and some fresh homemade sauerkraut that my lovely wife made brimming with enzymes. Yippee energy from these foods… and they look so beautiful.
My Superfood Smoothie had: Blueberries, Kale leaves, Strawberries, 2 bananas, Goji berries, cacao beans nibs, Vit. C from Health Force, Spirluna for HealthForce, Revitaphi from Elements for Life, a little mudhava agave nectar and water.
Check out the video I posted on making green smoothies here.
Yes, you may have heard about David Wolfe… for 20 years he has been distilling the leading edge information on how to thrive through optimum and relaxing diets and lifestyle changes.
He has just come out with the best compliation of his material called the LongevityNow Program. You can check it out here:
Just enter your email address even if it says its ’soldout’… they always do that to try and make it seem like its in low amount… they will have a new launch soon.
Yes, I am a food bar connoisseur. I have tasted and read the labels on so many. I have found only a few that have made my palette happy as well as my nutritional background checker happy too. The greensplus brand is one worth checking into and tasting for yourself.
I also promote a healthy vending company that is supporting new healthy vending machines to be brought into the school systems (as well as the hospitals and fitness centers). Imagine that! healthy food as an option for our kids and in places where we are hungry and need good food. I will share the link with you soon!
Check out their video (note I have not met them nor the teachers… but I liked the testimonials and how these couples are willing to get to know one another for the first time or again).
Well we are taking it, going to the seminars, and watching the online videos… and it has a lot to offer you if you are looking to create a highly functional, smoothly running information product online business. We went to the Guru Boot Camp in LA, CA July 11-12th and made a lot of great contacts and learned a lot – many things that can make or break your business.
I’ve created a new project to help people in need in Kenya. I was linked with a woman here in Ashland who has direct contact to the village of Ikombe. She says that the people there have been in a 4 year famine and are starving, she did not ask for money. One mother just committed suicide so her 8 children would be divided up into other homes that could feed them. This is just wrong that this exists. We need to help them. She said when asked about donations that they can be sent to the Pastor there in the Village who can go to the Town of Nairobi and buy food for them. I have the address now where checks can be sent to so the money can be wired to the Pastor.
So many times I have wanted to help people dying of hunger in Africa, but often felt the agencies ate up most of the money donated. This is purely going to the children and people of Ikombe, no middle man. No fees to cover.
All the money donated goes to food distribution, and hopefully sometime in the future some will go to education of sustainable agriculture that can withstand famine/droughts so they do not have to experience this again. Or a group of volunteers can go over and teach.
I have created a link on Obama’s new www.service.gov action network. You can view all the relevant information about where to send money and more of the story there:
Believe it or not, for the last 6 months I have been contemplating creating a website to network all of the volunteer organizations and to streamline the process for people to speak out when they need help with projects (volunteers, funding, etc.). This last week, President Obama and The First Lady have done just that with www.service.gov. Wow… is all I can say.
Do you have a project in mind? Create it here and get the help you need for it to come to fruition.
Looking for something to do other than surfing the net that would inspire you or awaken your passion or love for other human beings… here ya go!
