The Irish Potato Famine and Epigenetics
From 1845 to 1852, Ireland experienced one of its most devastating famines. Called the “Great Hunger,” it’s estimated to have killed one million Irish and forced a further two million to emigrate. But the effects have impacted more than the generations who survived. Through epigenetics, it has subsequently impacted the lives and heath of nearly every generation that came afterwards. Epigenetics is the study of the process by which genetic information is translated into the substance and behavior of an organism. Our genes, and the epigenetics that “sit” on them, determine our health, longevity, and dispositions. Not only can these be influenced by biology, but our own actions and experiences as well. Thus, our ancestors’ life experiences have influenced their own epigenetics, which in turn influence our parents’ and finally our own. When examining the Irish Potato Famine, the individual can be understood as the actual individual person experiencing the famine. The group thus becomes the population of Ireland during this time.

Vital Secrets Untold!
"The All is Mind; The Universe is Mental." - The Kybalion The above is the Master Key to you ruling the entire Universe. You have to realize that the Universe is mental and not physical. This realization will be in direct opposition to your "physical experience," but the experience has no actual reality. You are the reality. The mind is all there is. Just an intellect behind a mental process within its being. It is the mental process that you have to take charge of in order to have the quality of life that you desire. Start to look at things as they actually are, and not as we are projecting them. I say projecting them because it is your mind that is reading information delivered to it in vibrational frequencies, analyzing that information, combining the different frequency information, and then projecting the information into a three-dimensional picture that you appear to be living in. In all actuality, the world that you’re experiencing is your own projection, and in your own mind. Even the person that you think you are is a part of the information that you’re reading and projecting. Your life is a mental illusion with laws and rules added to make it work. Without the laws and rules to hold it in place, it wouldn’t work. But, since the process is mental, and it’s your own projection, you have the ability to bend or even break all the rules. You can tap into the information stream with your Will, and rearrange the information before it is projected into the three-dimensional picture. Also, you have the ability to add vibrational information into the stream to be projected into the three-dimensional picture. What does that mean you ask? Have you ever heard people talk about “the elephant in the room"? Well, you have the ability to actually put the “elephant” in the room. I know it sounds ridiculous to you, but it’s not actually the “elephant” that you’ll be dealing with. It’s manipulating the vibrational information that produces the “elephant,” before it is projected into the picture (world). It has been said in the ancient text that “Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most high” – Psalm 82:6. Many of the scriptures and ancient texts have much deeper meaning than most of us realize. Take a look around, touch something, and listen for a minute. It’s amazing isn’t it? All illusion in the mind.

Float Therapy
I heard a testimonial from a college student who had been on 13 different medications for anxiety, depression, and pain. She dropped out of college because she felt the pressure to thrive and become successful. Unfortunately, the medication became too much for her to handle and as a result she dropped out. So, she tried a new form of therapy called float therapy. Now, she is off ALL the medication and is back in college. So, I decided to do a little research and give it a try.
