Easy Does It
Transcendent Brain, Processed Food & Hyperactivity
“Force is a term applied when matter is set in motion. By this principle, thought must be given a place beside gravity, electricity, magnetism, and spin as a fundamental force.” —Physicist Buryl Payne, PhD, in The Body Magnetic (1988), p 76
RESEARCHERS STUDYING the human brain and genetic measurements have found that...two genes linked to brain size are rapidly evolving in humans. Researchers at the University of Chicago reported their findings in two related papers. “Our studies indicate that the trend that is the defining characteristic of human evolution—the growth of brain size and complexity—is likely still going on,” said lead researcher Bruce Lahn, an assistant professor at the University of Chicago. ”Meanwhile, our environment and the skills we need to survive in it are changing faster then we ever imagined. I would expect the human brain, which has done well by us so far, will continue to adapt to those changes.” (Well Being Journal, V 15, No 1, p 2.)
To a child, life isn’t too serious.
There are ups and downs,
Illnesses, other events; these cause more expansion.
You don’t fear death.
You surrender!
A Great Mystery.
The Source of life.
It’s a felt sense.
A child is fearlessly one with That—no thought about it.
“IF IT COMES IN ANY mass-produced packaging, that means it came from a mass-production processing plant. If you have ever been in [such a] food-processing facility, you would know...that there are over 15,000 chemicals that are routinely put into the food in the processing cycle that do not have to be listed on the label.”
Did you know that Japan has the lowest amount of obesity (<4 percent) of any industrialized nation (US: 45 percent)? The Japanese give their children fresh prepared food at school everyday. The children do not bring sack lunches; meals are prepared from scratch with vegetables and other fresh, whole foods, not processed cheeses and refined carbohydrates. This is a contrast with school lunches in the US, which are predominantly processed foods.
“Even if [not listed] on the package, there is an excellent chance that the food itself has been produced with chemicals and chemicals have been added. So, virtually all food you buy at the supermarket that comes in a package is [likely] loaded with dangerous chemicals. Secondly, the mass production processing dramatically changes the energetic structure of the food, as proven with the use of Kirlian photography.” Moral: Know where your food and that of your children and grandchildren came from; encourage organic, natural, whole and bulk foods. — Quoted material from Kevin Trudeau in Natural Cures, page 142.
How do you be in this physical world but not of it?
Remember the truth that sets you free?
A child knows it: She is loved, loving, and lovable eternally.
He knows he is created so and forever.
Children of God need not earn existence.
It is given already.
This is a mystery.
JANE HERSEY, director of the Feingold Association asks, “Do children’s foods really need to be colored with petroleum-based dyes such as Red 40 and Yellow 5, when there are plenty of natural dyes available? Are food manufacturers’ increased profits worth the tradeoff in our children’s health? And should schools sell foods with these additives to their students?”
A University of Melbourne trial showed that 75 percent of children with suspected hyperactivity improved on a diet free of artificial food colorings. This study, which was published in the Journal of Pediatrics, reported that the children who reacted to the dyes were irritable and restless, and that the younger children’s reactions also included constant crying and tantrums, as well as being easily distracted and out of control. Several food allergies also disappeared. What would happen if US children were given whole foods instead of the processed dregs full of chemicals from government handout programs?
