For many years now, a lot of people have been talking about “The Shift”, this mysterious transformation of human consciousness.

See if any of these traits resonate with who you are and how you feel.

So much of our freedom revolves around healing the wounds that have caused us to disavow important aspects of ourselves.

There has been a huge rise in hypothyroidism in recent times, with current data indicating that 12% of the population will experience some form of thyroid disorder in their lives.

Science is showing that medicinal mushrooms, used in ancient cultures, are capable of slowing ageing, reducing heart disease risk, disrupting tumour growth, stabilising cholesterol and blood sugar, protecting the kidneys and liver, improving respiration and circulation and increasing sexual function.

Modern cigarettes contain a whopping 600 ingredients, which translates to over 4000 chemicals. In addition to the familiar toxic ingredients found in cigarettes like tar and nicotine, many people are surprised to learn that cigarettes contain many other highly toxic ingredients, such as formaldehyde, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, arsenic, DDT, butane, acetone, carbon monoxide, and even cadmium. Did you know that The National Institute on Drug Abuse has estimated that in the United States alone, smoking is responsible for more than 400,000 deaths per year, and that by the year 2030 tobacco related deaths worldwide are projected to be approximately 10 million?
