From Duality to Unity
Our civilisation is changing from A to B. We are in the interim period that looks like chaos and random structures. When we see the news of division and conflict we may feel life and the world is all random and chaotic, and though this period is full of destruction and things as we know it is falling apart, this destruction is necessary to move forward into a new thriving structure B. The real story is that we are building a new structure and we are reorganising one for a new civilisation. Chaos is just transition, when you see the world falling apart, don’t focus on falling apart and be afraid, rather focus on that fact that creation brings people together - we become unified.
Let’s have a look at our past and how we have gotten into this interim phase: during the periods where indigenous people used to have a unity between spirit ( invisible world) and the matter ( visible world). When people used to hunt, they prayed on the animal and asked thanks for feeding the tribe. There was cooperation. Then The Greek Golden Age where Democritus said that the Material Realm is not affected by the Spiritual Real. Socrates divided the invisible energy world that is perfect and the material visible world that is corrupt. He split the universe into two.
Then we have the period when the Church reiterated this dualistic thinking, this time creating a distinction, between the perfect (afterlife) world and sinful and corrupt ( visible) world.
In 1859 Darwin dispelled the myth of 7 days of evolution and creation and let go of the Judo-Christian module. In the Darwinian theory, you ignore the spiritual ( invisible) realm and only focus on the mechanical ( visible) world.
Resolution is in the middle where Spirit and Matter is one. The visible and invisible comes together and from polarity to Unity. We are now going towards Unity again, like indigenous people , Druids in Europe, First nation people, Aboriginals , Native Americans lived in No Duality. We are moving to oneness and we are creating this heaven on Earth.

Climate Change or Change in perception?
There are three streams of thought about Climate Change, one thought is it’s patterns and cycles of Nature. Other thought is that humans have polluted the environment and third stream of thought is ignoring that there is Climate Change. As a Historian , International Relations analyst, Yoga Teacher and practitioner, I’m very much interested in cycle, patterns and wisdom of people, Nature, past and present Wisdom of Yogis and Shamans.
We as humans have not created Climate Change, this is part of nature’s cycle. However we have added and not helped matters by polluting and destroying the rainforests. Of course we need to keep our nest clean and cherish, respect our Nature and environment. We are part of Nature after all.
It’s not fearing the change of climate change, rather going with the flow. Don’t think it was better in the olden days and cling to those beliefs rather go with the flow, adapt and evolve with this cycle. These are exciting times indeed. We are at the casp of evolving into higher consciousness and we can participate, cooperate into a smooth cycle change. Sadly the mainstream media, science and politicians who are mostly paid by the Bio Tech Companies wants humanity to live in fear, struggle and stress. The outdated Darwinian Theory suggests that evolution is driven by random mutations and Nature has taken on its current structure and organisation simply by accident. These conventional models that are still taught at schools are outmoded. These are old way of Darwinian thinking are theories after all and not factual. We as a collective can evolve in a positive way of Being. We have tried to control nature but after all we are Nature! The dog eat dog mentality was a theory that was wrong and now we can see that our true nature is of cooperation , love, and unity. As Bruce Lipton ( Biologist and author of Biology of Belief), calls it a ‘Holism’ society. It’s a shift of perception that we are not a victim rather creators and participants of our Environment.

SUPER YOGIS or SUPER HUMANS?
Yogis knew how to regulate their breath and even heart, were they special or are we all super human? As yoga practitioners we are sensitive to what’s going on in the world: we see conflict, hate, different groups fighting each other. We know from our Hearts’ wisdom that it doesn’t have to be this way. We are trying to solve the problems of the world with old ideas like the Darwinian theory of society based on conflict, it’s a false assumption as Natures primarily rule is cooperation. The conflicts in the world are showing us how far off the mark we are with hate crimes, polarisation, religious divide and identity groups. Divide and conquer is possible, because the way we were taught was wrong. A very dangerous way of thinking it goes to the core of our survival. How much of our power do we give away?
Technology is an other part of our lives. Entrepreneur Elon Musk has founded a new company ‘Neuralink’, first chip implanted to the human brain that is linked to through “blue tooth” to the hard drive computer. These silicon chips interface with human brains. This is an unnecessary path. We already have the biology in us in what those chips propose to do. In the sixth layer of our neocortex in our brain we have ‘ Mirror Neurons’ that if we access it, we can do Super learning. We can learn foreign languages, learn karate whatever you want you can download and learn quickly. We just need to trust our human biology and access those Mirror Neurons instead of giving our power away to technology. Machines are useful tools, but ruling our lives can be dangerous and we will miss our own potential. The saying use it or lose it applies here, we need to choose to train our own power of super learning, self healing. Yogis, old traditions, shamans knew that nurturing and nourishing the body&mind we can harness our fantastic full potential and be creators of our fantastic lives.

It’s time to take the red pill!
Are you confused in what to eat, wear, exercise or which political party to vote for?
Do you sense there is a lot of confusion in our society and feelings of constriction surrounding who you really are?
We are consciousness that is having an experience in this life time. Our perceptions are interacting with the quantum field. If you believe (perceive) you have no power, then you’ll lead a life of no power. You are infinite energy, probabilities and experiences. Big cooperations, politicians and mainstream media and education system know that if you hold people in a narrow band of perception, then got ya, this is how they control the masses.
Throughout history religious institutions like the church, Royals, mainstream science and now Silicon Valley and politicians said to the masses what we know is the “absolute truth”, if you question it then in the olden days you’ll be burnt at a stake or murdered. Nowadays you’ll get censored and ridiculed and some even legally prosecuted. If you question the health effects of vaccines on your child, you’ll be branded as a non vaxer or worse legally prosecuted for child neglect if you don’t vaccine your child or even refused university.
Hold the perception of “little me”, I have no power then you’ll lead a life of fear and play into their hands. Do what you know is right, take your power back and don't let social media or what anyone else thinks of you hold you back. If you start to realise that we are all energy and we have been lied to and denied true reality that is so infinite and expansive and powerful than you don’t care about those institutions, people who want to hold you in the limited perception field. You are resonating within the band of frequency that you perceive. The media want you to have a small perception “keep them dumb” so they can make you a victim and dependent on their opinions and control.
Even some new age movements or as branded and marketed as progressives, tell you you are not perfect, you need to meditate for x amount of hours, eat this or that. The power is not outside or what people think of you. Harness your own power and see how infinite and wonderful your life unfolds. You can self heal, create fantastic things in your life. For sure eating organic foods, exercise helps, your yoga practice helps and to be in nature.
Celebrate your uniqueness. You are an expression of consciousness, don’t become the herd that followers a Shepard that leads you into the abyss. You have your own power and the so called “elite”, big Pharma and media, politics; want to create an illusion that you need them. Take your power back and don’t give a hoot what other people think of you if you leave the herd. They will look up and see how amazing you are and inspire others with your example. We are on this wonderful planet having experiences with inifinite possibilities.
In the Matrix film, where the lead character has a choice which pill to take. The red pill with its opposite the blue pill, a metaphor representing a choice between the ‘red pill, representing a life of truths of reality, knowledge and freedom. The ‘blue pill’, representing a life of ignorance and dishonest illusion. I know which one I’ll take, what about you?

Health, Breath and Love
The average person takes 16 breaths every minute. Your lungs are very important function/part in your body. Located in and a representation of the fourth Chakra ( Anahata Heart Chakra). This chakra is mostly know as the Heart Chakra, however it also represents our lungs. It’s the midpoint in the seven chakras and the midpoint in the body, is considered a gateway to higher consciousness.
Yoga practice helps our lungs and through deep breathing exercises we can strengthen our lungs. Shallow breathing is not so good for our health. People who work behind a desk all day or don’t lead an active life, get less oxygen pumped around the body as the lungs become lazy. You can exercise your muscles and exercise your lungs too. Use it or lose it is the expression, but so true. The ultimate healer and cleanser is the breath (oxygen). Take more worthwhile breaths to strengthen your lungs. Also if you are stressed, deep breathing will bring your body from the sympathetic ( fight or flight) state to the parasympathetic ( growth and repair) state that is calm and tells your body all is well and no danger is in the way.
Quit smoking! For thousands of years Tobacco have been used, for example in Shamanic ceremonies. We never saw cancer from those practices that involved Tobacco, however it’s until big cooperations changed the flavour of Tobacco and added more than 600 chemicals, herbicides and pesticides to the product that cancer has dramatically increased! The addictive proportions and chemicals that have been added to tobacco cigarettes by the big cooperations to sell more cigarettes and make more profits. Carbon monoxide and lead have also been added to the tobacco. Carbon monoxide destroys the mechanical function of your lungs. The additives and chemicals leads to emphysema and lung cancer. Dr Group founder of the Global Healing Centre has done the research and says Quit Smoking as it destroys your health and the people in your vicinity.
Here are some tools that yogis and alternative healers, Dr Group recommend to strengthen and heal your lungs.
- Breathing exercise
Close your eyes breath deeply from the lower part of your lungs. Do this 9 times.
- Lungs strengthening food like Cayenne pepper, this helps irritation and inflammation of the lungs. Pistachios have a lot of Vitamin E. Plantain leaf are good for lung congestion. Using organic herbs like peppermint, lungwort, eucalyptus as oils or herbs to help your breathing. www.globalhealingcenter.com
- Reducing exposure to air pollution in your workplace and homes. As a lot of building are so airtight that mould and mildew can occur. Look at the cleaning products you use. Use eco friendly and or make your own cleaning products. Breathing in Household cleaning products is like smoking 20 cigarettes a day as reported in What Doctors Don’t tell you article in the highly acclaimed What Doctors Don’t Tell You magazine www.wddty.com
- Put plants in your home, workplace or your car (in the cup holder), plants absorb toxins and produce oxygen.
- Be in nature as often as you can.
- Extended puppy pose to help with calming and breathing in your back yoga pose. Come to childpose and lift up on your knees and extend your arms forward on the ground. Keep your hips up.
- Extended puppy pose to help with calming and breathing in your back yoga pose. Come to childpose and lift up on your knees and extend your arms forward on the ground. Keep your hips up.
- Caster-oil packs to improve lung condition. Place caster oil on a cloth on your chest to absorb toxins. www.globalhealingcentre.com shows you how to make the packs.

New Prime Minister, Wheel of karma or evolving into higher consciousness?
I was coming back from holiday when I found out the UK had a new Prime Minister - I’m quite excited about this one Yogis. Now, I have to say that through yoga I have stepped out of the so called mainstream media, tv, radio and advertisements. The ‘nocebo’ effect of fear, news, gossip and distraction through excessive foods, alcohol and reality tv shows has created a society of people who are hurt and lost their own power. They seek help from doctors who mostly want to prescribe drugs or cut out organs. Doctors don’t see the person as a whole, but as a part and treat only the symptoms. The medical profession haven’t taught doctors that the body&mind is not separate and that you treat a person as a whole in other words holistically. We have relied on politicians who are puppets for their masters ( big Pharma, food, petrochemical and war industry). These so called masters fund the politicians to ‘sell’ their ‘products’ and use and abuse humanity as their guinea pigs for their own greed and benefits.
So why am I so excited? The old structures are collapsing faster now and a new structure is emerging a collective evolving of consciousness. I sense there is a shift in the collective energy of people who have had enough of being manipulated. We instinctively know that we are here on this planet to experience heaven on Earth, where laughter, love, joy and cooperation is our true nature. Living in tune with nature rather than dominating nature. The outdated Newtonian view of studying the human body and universe itself as a machine and Darwinian view of competition. Newtonian science argues that the mind and nature is irrelevant as it was seen as separate is finally being exposed as a farce. The old systems of politicians, doctors and education has to change. Do we keep the wheel of karma going? In other words we see ourselves born into a culture and environment and react to situations and see ourselves as victims and give our power away to doctors, teachers and politicians. Or are we realising that we can’t go on like this and that we can harnesses our own power of self healing and living in tune with nature. Most people want to have balance and harmony in their lives, and want to create a Heaven here on this wonderful Earth.

DIET and CONSCIOUSNESS
What does your diet have to do with your mind? In Yogic thought, we see the person as a whole: body mind and soul (energy). The mind is made up of the consciousness and the subconscious part. It’s how you see yourself. Let’s start off with exposing the foods that are available; Carbs, Protein and Fats have different building blocks in foods. Carbs can be released into energy very quickly, however the problem is the energy is used instantly (fast release) leading you to feel low on energy soon after you’ve consumed them. Athletes for example will eat a snack full of sugar and carbs to get that energy burst before a run or match.
Fats don’t digest easily, but it gives you longer lasting energy. If you eat Carbs and Fats then the body will use the carbs for energy and store the fats. If you stopped eating carbs and only eat fats and protein then you’ll activate genes to digest fats into long lasting energy. You won’t have the sugar rush and up/down energy levels. In the Keto diet you eat more fats and protein but small portion. The average diet contains a lot of Carbs and people will reach out for a sugar snack to get more energy, however eating fats like olive oil, coconut oils will help curb the sugar cravings and will give you longer lasting energy.
The body and mind are connected, your digestion and absorption of nutrients are related to your thoughts and feelings. What you put in your mouth goes into a pipe and goes out at the other end. If you stretch out the digestive system it’s a pipe one hole at top your mouth and at the other end your anus. To absorb the nutrients into you body from the pipe, the digestive system picks what it wants and the rest gets secreted. It’s about Consciousness - are you building a healthy or a sick body?
The digestive system merely acts to what visions you have and react to what belief you hold.
A lot of people in this world have an issue with feeling a lack of love. It goes back to when you were a child and the programs that you recorded. The programs are usually self sabotaging, feelings of lack of self love, self worth are being stored into the mind and as an adult you act and create the wold that you subconsciously perceive. In my last blog I explained how you can reprogram your subconscious into the life you want. As the Buddha said with the mind you create the world. You can create a healthy body and mind.
It is ultimately up to you if you want to be vegetarian, vegan or which diets to follow. I’m not a keen meat eater and will hardly eat meat, yet when I was pregnant of my first daughter, I dreamt of steak and orange juice. My body was telling me I was low on iron and needed to top up on iron and iron gets better absorbed with vitamin C. Your body is a miracle with its own capacity to self heal, to replenish and rejuvenate as long as we are in tune with our body, nature and to live a life of harmony and health.
In health
