Embracing Stillness - A Practice That is Worthy of Your Time...

@porters
I'll be speaking here on stillness which is simply being present in a peaceful and non-stimulating environment and pointing out why practicing stillness, on a regular basis, is worthy of your time.
Are you one of those people who believe they don’t have the time to take for being still?
Or are you rather addicted to distractions and find resistance with the thought of being alone with your thoughts?
I want to show you that there is beauty in solitude. With stillness you can then hear your inner voice, your intuition!
If you’re able to disengage for a few minutes, step away from your life for a bit, you will have a better chance of seeing things more clearly perhaps seeing more of the truth.
Permaculture Principles Discussion Completed

@stortebeker
Finally I have finished it: I managed to write about each design principle of Permaculture, on the list compliled by Bill Mollison, David Holmgren, and the instructor of my own PDC course, Scott Pittman. It ended up being much longer than I thought, even though some of these 24 points overlap a little. Sometimes two permaculturists mention the same idea in their lists, other times one of them may break up one concept into two distinct parts, which I lumped together. So in the end, I created my own list, mixing and matching the theory in a way I considered appropriate. The final result is almost worthy of a book: 18 chapters of 19,255 words in total.
Purging Myself from Facebook

@elamental
Facebook is a seriously broken platform, and it has been for quite sometime. It invades your privacy by collecting data from you for "marketing purposes" (although we all know that's not the only purpose for the data collection). The CIA and NSA essentially own Facebook, and have access to all the data everyone provides there so they can catalog our lives to possibly use against them at a later date. Additionally, Facebook owns 100% of the content you post there, and you have no legal rights to any of it, even if it was your own original writing, art, video, or photography...
How We Edit Our Reality

@bobaphet
Astronomical musings on today’s Mercury transit of the Sun

@julianhorack
Ancient astronomers and astrologers of our historically civilized cultures of India, Egypt, the Middle East and Medieval Europe, all at their various epochs, would observe the movement of the planets and luminaries in the night sky and note the attributes occurring at the regular cyclic points on the wheel of the celestial zodiac. This backdrop of the constellations and fixed stars served as a virtual compass, by which to measure and time alignments and thus events correlated on the ground. For example the ancient Egyptians were able to time the flooding of the Nile annually by sighting a certain star, thereby timing their crucial planting and harvesting seasons.
Precognition of the Coming Blockchain Serfdom

@thoughts-in-time
MARK MY WORDS: The coming cashless currency, will, without a doubt, sacrifice freedom and privacy unto the altar of convenience. One of the biggest problems of cryptocurrency (KYC or the lack thereof) is what makes it most attractive. If you recall, Bitcoin originally got billed as a way to trade for goods and services anonymously.
Of course, this was early into the days of crypto, and Bitcoin was the flagship product of its kind. It led the way for all other cryptos to follow.
Needing that Salty Goodness!

@minismallholding
It's common knowledge these days that too much salt in your diet isn't good for you. Our doctors and a lot of literature warn us that it can cause high blood pressure (hypertension), which could lead to a heart attack. In fact it can cause many more problems than that and with our modern, fast food, ready meal diets, high salt is certainly a concern. However, swing too far the other way and you could start experiencing the symptoms of hyponatremia, or low sodium.
Donald Trump Partners with the Gates-Funded Global Vaccine Alliance
@dbroze
ID2020 Now A Conspiracy Fact

@earthcustodians
Bill Gates left the Microsoft Board earlier this year in March, to have more time to spend saving the world from diseases, and to avoid being caught as a questionable decisionmaker perhaps. But before quitting, he nonetheless had worked restlessly on his Dystopian pet-project ID2020 since 2017.
Of course, Microsoft adviser is going to be replaced and the plan will resume. In the meantime, such an article is a victory as it tells us that many tinfoil hat reporters weren't making anything up when warning the public about this surveillance technology.
Stress and Food Habits

@nainaztengra
Stress has become a very common part of today's life. It's common and it's a hard reality. The circumstances that we are going through, the situations that we are put in, is all directly impacting our mental health and it takes a lot of effort for one to maintain their sanity.
The one most important part that get affected is our diet. Or we can also put it the other way around. With unhealthy diet, the lesser we are equipped to deal with stress and higher stress levels, resulting into intake of junk foods.
What Do We Want?

@lukestokes
It feels like the world is at a tipping point, and we intuitively know something is about to happen. We’re like dogs acting crazy because we know the fireworks are about to start. We can’t explain what we know or why, but something isn’t right.
It seems like the world is dominated by fear. Fear on the right of a totalitarian communist / socialist take over where our individual freedom is finally destroyed forever in a global lockdown which continues to chip away at any and all liberties, one by one
Owning My Affectionate Self: Redefining My Humanity as a Hugger

@riverflows
When I was a little kid, I would fasten myself to the legs of guests like a koala toy clipped onto a pencil. I have always been an affectionate person. I have learnt to quash this affectionate part of myself. Somehow, I picked up that it wasn't socially acceptable to be too demonstrative in public. For years I had a boyfriend who wouldn't hold my hand in public. That was some damage right there. And then I started becoming my self. Not too anything - just perfectly me. It takes us a while to get there in a judgemental world - especially woman.
Vegans & Tapeworms: Myths BUSTED & Some Natural Medicine Parasite Remedies You Should Know

@artemislives
We're raised with so much misinformation from the mainstream medical narrative that it's sometimes not easy to find your own naturally healthy way forward.
Sorry - and I know this is eeeew - but we NEED to talk about vegans and tapeworms. Why? That will become evident a little further down, based on a shocking piece of research I read today.
The myths.
Myth 1. You get tapeworms from only animal products;
Myth 2. You mostly get tapeworms only from your pets;
Myth 3. Only dirty humans get tapeworms;
Myth 4. Vegans and vegetarians never have to worry about getting tapeworms from their food;
“What is the importance of self-inquiry in relation to wellness?”

@trucklife-family
Yesterday I answered a question about self-awareness and today I am answering one about self enquiry.( all part of the latest Natural Medicne Challenge) As I sit here thinking on this, I realise that perhaps I should have started with self enquiry first!
Why?
Because in order to get to know oneself, you have to ask ourselves questions, questions that allows us to peel back the many layers of who we are. Questions that are quite open-ended, but are also more revealing about our true nature. We can ask these questions at different times of our life, even on different days and depending on what we’re doing and how we are feeling,tThe answer will usually always be different, each time.
The Truth About Millennial Survival Skills: Explanation and Solutions

@homestead-guru
Sometimes old Homestead Guru content takes on new meaning for readers.
This post was inspired by some controversy over a post three years old titled “New Poll Finds Millennials Lack Basic Survival Skills”.
The post in question was based on a poll taken from English Millennials in 2017.
This poll was conducted at the London Boat Show. It indicates the majority of young people known as millennials lack survival skills once perceived to be vital for human survival.
With the rise of technology, in lieu of skills like map reading which has fallen out of practice, many are entirely reliant on Google Maps. Millennials are always more likely to pull out a phone than a map, let's just face it
The 'Golden Rule' Is Snake Oil And A Form of Social Control That is Empowering Authoritarian Evil. Change My Mind.

@ura-soul
The 'Gold Rule' is partially responsible for Evil. If you yourself want to be worshipped all day, then the golden rule forces you to do that to others. Worshipping (Ass kissing) of others in favour of being real and dealing with real emotional responses is part of what is empowering evil on Earth. How far would serial child rapist and friend to the world's 'leaders', Jeffrey Epstein, have gotten without so many people keeping quiet due to their consistent ass kissing of him due to his perceived wealth and 'power'? The reality is that everyone is unique and has different needs - if we are to be truly respectful we must treat others in a way that has balance for all involved, not just blanketly treating everyone the way that we determine we want or need.
Ripping Apart The Existing System Piece By Piece

@taskmaster4450
We are seeing a transformation taking place. The existing system is desperately trying to hold on. Many feel that best way to implement change is to work within the present system. This is obviously not going to work.
There was plenty of insight into the mindset of the system earlier this year regarding space. As most are aware, huge advancements are being made in that area. The path into space is a lot clearer now than it was a decade ago.

The @Abundance.Tribe Bi-Weekly Question
Focalized by @Trucklife-Family
The aim of the biweekly question is to help promote self awareness, so that we can begin to go back to a point in our lives, where we are connecting more with our intuitive self. By asking these questions, we are getting one another to dig deep and to reflect on our lives. To focus on what we really want in life and on how we are going to achieve it.
**What is Your "Understanding Of The New Normal"? How is it going to affect your life and what measures if any are you going to put in place to help you maintain the life that you want? **

Abundance Tribe Evergreen Collection #7: Breathing Life Into Paid Out Posts
Focalized by @artemislives
There are so many good posts which are enjoyed so fleetingly, or perhaps not at all. Maybe it was published before you joined Hive or not yet following that author? Or that was the week you were fasting in a yurt in Mongolia without wifi? Life happens and the 7 day post rewards window is short. Many would say too short. There are also just so many reasons why a post is overlooked, forgotten or received less reward than it should have: autovoters were down, token price crashed, or it was another Hard Fork within moments of you pressing 'publish".
