Narcissist vs. Egomaniac

Sat, 04 Sep 2010 12:18:00 -0400

Continuing where we left off yesterday...Everyone flips this term around, especially when describing the problems of America today... Here is an easy way to study the subject and thus talk more intelligently about it.

Tony Soprano, Textbook Psychopath

Fri, 03 Sep 2010 12:07:00 -0400

Okay, we've all heard that said before, and we've heard that 'every psychotherapist in America was glued to the TV screen every week to study the HBO series "The Sopranos" as it played to the world as entertainment. More and more, conversations are riddled with psychobabble meant to infer that this person or that is a psychopath or a sociopath, and most often--a narcisstic personality. But what do these terms really mean.

Gregg Braden on the holographic universe

Sat, 07 Aug 2010 12:47:00 -0400

Gregg Braden does a real nice job of explaining our holographic universe. I especially enjoyed his repeating the story accredited to Montezuma of the Aztecs whose scribes wrote that the Maya (whom they hated and despised) had encountered the Spanish and at first could not comprehend that they arrived in ships because they had never seen them before.... Also, note how a change among us affects others, so let us each be a force for positive change and love...

It's All an Illusion, right?

Hope this helps explain the halographic universe theory of dreams, life as we know it, and even the soul... Let me know if it helps you or not or if you wish to see more such videos here. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YG9FO7JGWq4&NR=1

Prochaska's 5 Stages of Change

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 12:28:00 -0400

Over the years of teaching classes and seminars on breathing, meditation, psychic development, integrating Spirit into your career, and work with The Maya and so on…every time some change forever and others remain unchanged. Ever wonder why you change?

Here is what James O. Prochaska, a leading psychologist, developed and modified a tad to include your spiritual quests, as well: Five stages of change to describe the behavior and thought process that occur behind every change. Give it some thought the next time you say: “I want to meditate every day or I want to lose weight or exercise more often.”

Pre-contemplation: Not really thinking about making a change. At this stage you are unaware of a behavior or habit that is unhealthy. [More]

WD-40 - Who knows what it is?

Wed, 28 Jul 2010 15:31:00 -0400

Thanks to Kathy for sending this in…so we can amaze and stupefy our friends, too… Does anybody know what the main ingredient of WD-40 is?

(Anonymous writes) I had a neighbor who bought a new pickup. I got up very early one Sunday morning and saw that someone had spray painted red all around the sides of this beige truck (for some unknown reason). I went over, woke him up, and told him the bad news. He was very upset and was trying to figure out what to do...probably nothing until Monday morning, since nothing was open. Another neighbor came out and told him to get his WD-40 and clean it off. It removed the unwanted paint beautifully and did not harm his paint job that was on the truck. I'm impressed! WD-40 who knew? 'Water Displacement #40'. [More]

Einstein said, “Everyone who is seriously involved in the pursuit of science becomes convinced that a spirit is manifest in the laws of the Universe---a spirit vastly superior to that of man, and one in the face of which we with our modest powers must feel humble.” [More]

Your Brain at Work

Mon, 29 Mar 2010 12:04:00 -0400

Worked with a long-time client who is completing his doctorate in psychology and apparently his Guides were still working within my life later, because I found several items on Facebook that on the face of it would not appear to relate to his work, but each one did. I had to send this link to him because it explains exactly what he needs to rethink…and it is an excellent seminar for each of us to complete as well. Not easy, but very worthwhile…

Google Tech Talk November 12, 2009 ABSTRACT Presented by David Rock. In his new book "Your Brain at Work," coach David Rock depicts the story of two people over one day at the office, and what's happening in their brains that makes it so hard to focus and be productive. ...

Gregg Braden - The Matrix of Life

Mon, 22 Mar 2010 12:15:00 -0400

While visiting a friend on Facebook I spotted this video and wanted to share it with you because at times it sounds like me talking about my work and so on. Obviously, I enjoy those who believe or at least express themselves as I do… There is a living field between the particle of atoms that gives matter its form, this is the matrix of all matter. Ancient civilizations already know this, and the Western world is only beginning to wake up to this. Click here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AI3jzgaKV8Q

Picturing the Known Universe

Sun, 17 Jan 2010 12:09:00 -0400

The Known Universe Video takes viewers from the Himalayas through our atmosphere and the inky black of space to the afterglow of the Big Bang. Every star, planet, and quasar seen in the film is possible ... Click Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17jymDn0W6U&feature=youtu.be&a

What better way to prepare for my trip to the Himalayas in May? Funny, but last Wednesday I took another Beginner’s class in astronomy and came away with a great web site where you can get current sky maps at no cost. Shared the web site on my Facebook page if you are interested in that.

WSJ Reports Nikola Tesla is Now Hip!

Sat, 16 Jan 2010 12:51:00 -0400

Read in the Wall Street Journal decades after Tesla died penniless that he is now pushing aside his old rival in the ‘pantheon of geek gods,’ Thomas Edison. Their rivalry was called the Battle of the Currents because Edison bet on direct current and was ahead for a time, but Tesla won the contest when his AC equipment powered an unprecedented display of electric light at the 1893 Chicago World’s Fair.

50 years later, the 86-year-old Serbian émigré died in obscurity, unmarried, childless, and bereft of friends. Meanwhile, Edison was lionized for generations as one of America’s greatest inventors. BUT Tesla has been rediscovered by technophiles, including Google Inc. co-founder Larry Page, who frequently cites him as an early inspiration. Teslamania is increasingly going mainstream! [More]

I couldn't stop watching this video even though it was 23 min. Her ideas of using the genius of nature to solve our planetary challenges by using Biomimicry. Fascinating!! Kathy

Sorcha Faal reports on: ‘Time Wave’ Blacks Out South America

Nellie sent me this article, mentioning it was about The Maya whom I have worked with lo these many years. I can see what she means, but some of you may not and will question what is going on. Put your thoughts into comments at the end…

An interesting report circulating in the Kremlin today is claiming that the massive power blackout that hit South America this past week was due to a ‘Time Wave’ that emanated from the mysterious Bolivian Andes region called Tiahuanaco where the mysterious 10 ton “Gateway of the Sun” monolithic (carved from a single block of Andesite granite) is located and was ‘triggered’ by an ‘anomalous event’ at the World's largest and highest-energy particle accelerator, Large Hadron Collider, in Switzerland run by the European Organization for Nuclear Research and ‘rippled through’ the thousands of ancient pyramid complexes located throughout Brazil and other countries of South America.

Here Comes the Sun

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 10:50:00 -0400

Tips for making a solar system that revolves around you, courtesy of my car dealer.

While many of us would love to outfit our homes with massive, energy-saving solar panels, the cost can be somewhat of a deterrent. There are, however, small ways that you can harness the sun’s energy without making a huge financial investment. With a little ingenuity, you can start a solar project and end up saving money in the long run. Even though the weather is starting to cool down, the sun is still out and about – so start soaking up some rays! [More]

Stargazing Update

Tue, 17 Nov 2009 09:07:00 -0400

Having been away from the internet for a few days, hope you all caught the sight. Got this note that gives you more info on such events for future use, too.

Hello Everyone! The Leonid meteor shower is tonight and tomorrow night, Monday and Tuesday before dawn. For more information in your area go to: http://stardate.org/

Here is a glimpse of what you may be able to see:

Stargazing Tip for November 16 - "...The Leonid meteor shower should be at its best before dawn tomorrow. The Moon is out of the way, so it won't spoil the show. Although the shower is named for Leo, the meteors can streak across any part of the sky, so you don't have to look at the lion to see them.......".

May your night skies be clear, and the weather agreeable!!! I hope you get to see a spectacular show! AJV
