Ayurveda practices were created by consciously evolved beings to help beings living during the age of corruption and degradation. After listening to several audio books on Ayurveda I learned a few beneficial practices. Majority of information that is available these days is misinterpreted and corrupted, so although it is beneficial to learn, one must be discerning and listen to their inner wisdom. To access the inner wisdom may take some tedious work, because a lot of the time we let our trauma dictate our impulses. We accumulate a lot of trauma from our childhood, ancestors which is passed on with DNA, and our past lives. Wether you believe in it or not, reality remains as it is. Trauma doesn’t have to be some extreme dramatic situation. Something as common as an older sibling bulling can be enough for a small child to contract and create negative assumptions about self, others, and the world in general. Since we are living in the dark ages at the moment, pretty much everyone is traumatized to a certain degree. Our job in this life is to un-traumatize ourselves and strive for a constant state of contentment, non judgement, equanimity, and calm, despite the situation or circumstance. One way we can start our healing journey of consciousness, is to heal the body. Our health depends on our digestion. In order to sustain the physical form in this day and age we need to consume water, vitamins, and minerals. Natural sunshine is vital. 30 minutes to 1 hour of sunshine daily on full body with no sunscreen is necessary. Engage with the sunshine wisely by spending time outdoors in the morning and evening.

A few take aways I got from the audio books is to combine foods properly. For example, eat fruit separately 45 minutes before a meal. So you should not combine fruits with other foods like nuts, grains, dairy, etc. This is a. hard one for me because I love yogurt with fruit. But I am trying to not let my cravings or corrupted past programs dictate how I nourish my body. It takes time and self discipline. Balance is not about eating junk food one day and then fasting another day, that is called swinging from one extreme to another. True balance is when there is a constant state if contentment and perfect health. Another great tip I learned is to take a short 5-10 minute walk after each meal. It is not a good idea to stay stagnant or sleep right after a meal. If weather conditions do not allow for a walk, then do some household chores like washing dishes. Some other tips include:

Daily body massage with oil. Mix olive oil with essential oils, or use it on its own. Jojoba oil is wonderful on its own or as a carrier oil. Sesame seed oil is also very healing. After a shower, moisturize and massage the face and body. LivingLibations.com has super awesome products.

Neti pot to cleanse nasal passages. Use it during hot and humid times not when it is dry and cold. Use clean water which in this day and age means filtered water.

Take herbal supplements, for example: long pepper, ashwagandha, triphala, neem powder, etc.

Do research and spend time in quietude and meditation to find out what you truly need to heal.

Iodine is one of the most important minerals for the human body and most are deficient. Foods like kelp contain iodine. I mix 1 teaspoon of kelp powder with a little bit of room temperature water and drink that. I don’t trust that morton’s iodized salt and never use it. I’ve heard that it is heated to extremely high temperatures and all the benefits are destroyed. A problem with taking iodine in food form is that it may not absorb. Majority of people have poor digestion due to improper food combining, artificial food consumption, alcohol, history of antibiotic use, overdosing on sugar and other high glycemic foods, and other abuses that people do to their body. With a disturbed digestive system, minerals and vitamins do not absorb properly. A good way to supplement is transdermally. Massage lugol’s iodine into your skin, especially where it is thinner like the inner arms or thigh. Iodine is important for women’s breast health. If there are cysts or fibroids, massage lugol’s iodine into the spot where breast tissue is imbalanced.

This year I was more focused on planting flowers for our pollinator friends. I was also gifted a tropical milkweed plant. Today I discovered a baby monarch 🦋

I take photos with my phone. I wonder if there will be a huge difference with a more advanced camera or if photography is more about the perspective rather than tool used.

We are living in an age of addictions. Almost everyone is addicted to food in one way or another and use it as a tool for emotional comfort instead of simply sustaining the physical form. Many people also consume food unconsciously in front of screens or while doing other activities. As a result of this multi-tasking and overall improper approach to food, people consume a lot more than necessary. I’ve been on a journey to refine my food habits for a while now. At this point it is pretty easy for me to avoid all processed food. Not long ago I tried to eat some processed pastry that was kindly offered to me and it tasted bad, like chemicals. In the past it would have tasted good. So it is encouraging that as we refine our consciousness, our physical preferences also refine, naturally. One of the more difficult challenges that I am currently facing is food combining and volume of food consumed. As I’ve already mentioned, we have been trained to over-eat. In reality we don’t need more than a handful or two of natural food in volume. But we eat a lot more than that. Proper food combining seems like a good idea also, but again we have been conditioned to constantly consume a variety of everything all at once. Do some research on food combining to learn which foods digest best together and which foods to eat separately. For example, fruit should not be combined with anything else. But we are usually not satisfied with just eating one fruit for a meal. Instead we want to combine fruit with yogurt and some almonds to at least feel somewhat satisfied. Most people will not agree with this minimalistic approach to nourishment, because the addictions and past conditionings will turn on all possible defense mechanisms. But if our society was doing nourishment right, we would see all healthy, youthful, content people walking around. But even the “healthy” looking people in this age are still getting the flu, anxiety, and all sorts of other health troubles that a truly healthy human would never face. So the refinement process continues. Minimizing volume and proper food combining is the next step. Also it is important to note that these are slightly more advanced steps of consciousness evolution, and most people should not try to force it. Forcing anything will cause more friction and illness. I met a guy who drastically gave up eating meat and a year later got really sick. Awareness is the first step, and true changes towards true health happen gradually and naturally.

I feel like all my social media pages are becoming Jivanmukti fan pages haha. That girl is just so awesome and legit in my perspective, so when I take her advice and it works, I want to give her teachings credit. I have been monitoring my sugar intake even before I began listening to Jivanmukti’s talks. I went to a wholistic doctor about 8 years ago and he suggested I try a keto diet to heal my skin inflammation. It took me over a year to perfect but the keto diet healed my skin. Once that issue was healed I started becoming more relaxed about the sugar intake again. I avoided refined sugar but I ate a lot of fruit, raisins, figs, dried apricots, and dates. One day after eating a bunch of dates I noticed my teeth started to feel sensitive and kinda hurt. So I decided to apply Jivanmukti’s suggestion on limiting sugar to only 1 or 2 fruit a day. Berries like strawberries and blueberries are a great way to enjoy something sweet because they are low in sugar. But once you are in the sugar cycle, it is hard to quit, even if it is natural sugar like raisins and dates. I noticed that I start craving sugar after meals. So per Jivanmukti’s advice I decided to wait 20 minutes after my meal and have a herbal tea or lemon water instead. Psychologically, waiting a bit after a meal is not too hard because I already feel full and nourished. And to my surprise, once the 20 minutes pass, I no longer crave the sugar. I still enjoy the herbal tea or neem powder in warm water if I am up for it, but I don’t even need that once the 20 minutes pass. So it is basically a 20 minute self control practice. There are a lot of things you can do for 20 minutes to distract yourself from the craving. For example taking a walk or doing some household chores. Now that I am limiting my sugar intake, my teeth feel fine again.

I am doing my best to distance myself from anything that is not necessary, in particular social media and television. With all this extra time, I have to figure out what to do. I am not yet at the point where I can meditate for 4 hours, which would be pretty awesome. So today I decided to spend some of my time relaxing in a bath. I have some vitamin C powder that I bought from Swanson Vitamins. The expiration date is set for 2 months from now, and I still have a lot of this powder left. (Although I don’t always pay attention to the expiration date exactly, sometimes I extend these types of products for a few more months if they seems to be in good condition). I’ve noticed there are a lot of beauty products out there that have vitamin C as their main ingredient, so I decided to make a bath with it. I put about half a cup to one cup of the vitamin C powder in warm water and soaked for about 30 minutes. After the bath I applied a moisturizer that I made with avocado oil as a carrier mixed with lemon essential oil. Next time I plan to take a bath with Moringa powder that is also approaching its expiration date. Sometimes when you have good products but you know you won’t be able to consume them internally, try turning them into skincare products and your body will absorb the nutrients transdermal.

This is a short summary from Jivanmukti’s Webinar called Dimensions of Healing

Our consciousness is like a stream. And each of us steams individual conscious light matter into the collective mainstream. Currently we are in the down cycle which is a time period of ignorance and corruption where only 2-10 percent of the brain is active and the rest of the brain ability is dormant. If the entire brain was active, humans would have “supernatural” powers, although in reality they are natural and normal. Before the corruption, humans were free from thoughts and emotions and used these as tools in moderation. Now if a person tries to “meditate” for 5 minutes, keeping the mind pure of thoughts is like one of the most difficult things. As we became imbalanced over thousands of years we lost the ability to process reality in a neutral equanimous way. Now the mental and emotional information is to the brim in the body and therefore it drains the body, makes it sick and aging. When a person thinks, no matter if it’s positive or negative, their consciousness is outside the body. Wherever the focus is directed, that thing is supported regardless if you are in agreement or disagreement with whatever you are watching or listening to. By directing focus to whatever that is part of the matrix (gossip, tv, news, podcasts, art, books, social media, etc) the more one drains self unnecessarily and the weaker becomes their aura. The problem with the down cycle is that we cannot check what another person’s frequency was or is when they were creating their literature, art, film, ect. We also do not know if these individuals employed entities while creating. Many artists and content creators use drugs to access higher levels of creativity. Every time they employ forces outside their natural being through artificial means like drugs (even if drugs are made from plants), there is always a price to pay. When they receive knowledge that was not born inside their consciousness naturally, they have to give something up. When other people plug their own consciousness to that creation, they tarnish their energy system. When focus is directed to anything, consciousness is outside the body and the body is drained of life energy. However, when consciousness is intact within the body, it nourishes the body. In this day and age, to maintain or regain health and youth, one must unplug their consciousness from the corrupted mainstream matrix. Almost everyone on earth is corrupted and draining, therefore it is best to not connect to any other stream unless it is absolutely necessary. Not everyone is meant to evolve in this cycle. And many souls incarnated to experience corruption to the fullest. But for those who have awakened and want to get on a higher level of existence, they must learn to be content with their personal stream and nourish self from within. When one learns to remain fully in the body, they create a shield that doesn’t allow other’s corruption to affect and drain them. Our energy body manifests the physical body. Weak energy body translates to a weak immune system. So in reality health is the result of a wholesome intact consciousness that nourishes the physical body. Once again, to strengthen the energy body, one must unplug from the mainstream. With a pure consciousness one will always eat and do the things that are nourishing instead of draining. With an intact consciousness one will always know what to do and where to be from within without having to ask anyone. According to the necessity a person can create temporary links with the projected mainstream, and the rest of the time continue to remain consciously intact. Consciously intact means one is in constantly in a state of meditation, even when performing certain activities like walking or cleaning. It means the individual is always aware of their body and keeps it relaxed with a balanced breathing pattern. A balanced breathing pattern is breathing deeply into the stomach area before filling up the lungs with fresh oxygen. In this way of being the brain will slowly start activating to next level higher frequency consciousness. Therefore patience and dedication is necessary in this process of self refinement. So far everything that we know that was streamed to us is limited. Once we learn how to be fully connected to our pure higher consciousness, reality will shift and what once was considered supernatural will become normal and natural. Sunlight is very important in activating consciousness. It is important to spend time in the sun morning and evening, about 15 minutes to 1 hour each time. The more an individual’s steams refines, they will be able to slowly activate others. It will be like a domino effect. So if you want to bless your loved ones with health and well being, instead of nagging them to stop or start doing something, begin to refine yourself by unplugging from the mainstream matrix and your vibration will naturally activate them towards healing without you having to say or do anything. It is worth a try if you feel like your soul may be in the category that is destined to evolve in this cycle. May all be free from corruption, mind control, curses, and all kinds of negative energy. And may the immortal essence bless all with clarity, purity, abundance of all kind, balanced soul mate relationships, a healthy and youthful body, and a protective shield over their subtle and physical body.

There are many beautiful cake recipes that you may find online or in cookbooks. However to make a cake healthier, you may switch up certain ingredients for more suitable ones. For example, the cake in the photo contains almond flour and sweetened with low glycemic monk fruit. All recipes can be upgraded to serve your health and celebrations. Respect your body, it is your most valuable tool on this planet to evolve towards a more divine and pure state of being.
