Free Dandelion Medicine!
Nature has a way of providing everything seasonally and geographically that you will need. You can harvest these easily in your neighbourhood, but take care not to use any from soil areas that have been treated with weedkillers by the municipality or neighbours.

Nature’s Valium
This beautiful, psychedelic looking herb passionflower (Passiflora incarnata) has been used through the ages as a treatment for anxiety, insomnia, and panic disorder, muscle spasms and more. In fact, studies have shown it is equally comparable to benzodiazepine drugs (diazepam, valium, xanax, the list goes on) though with less drowsiness or other harsh side-effects.
Dosage: take 10 drops in decaf tea or juice and enjoy :)
Manifesting a Dream
I found out tonight that I will be doing an Ayahuasca ceremony in a few months when I’m ready. I dont know where I’m going to do it, which country, what its going to cost or any of the details, but I do know I need to do this. My feeling is it would be a good thing to do about a fortnight before returning to the States. It will bring everything I have learned together, bring all my remaining secrets out of their lurky little corners of the mind so I can deal with them, purge me and prepare me for returning to the States.
Ayahuasca is a magical potion from the Amazon basin that produces a very powerful visionary experience. Indigenous people say that during their trance, which lasts approximately four hours, they enter the world of the spirits and communicate with them, while psychologists consider DMT to be one of the hallucinogens, or psychedelics: “substances which make the soul visible.” I have heard this is not a fun experience. You don’t take this brew to party. It is a very difficult journey that can take you to the darkest and lightest places of your mind, and so it requires presence and commitment.
I have felt called to do this for years but have never felt ready. Now I feel very close. Somehow this is going to happen.
Controversial EU vitamins ban to go ahead
This is really bad news…
TimesOnline.co.uk: A controversial new EU regulation that has threatened to outlaw thousands of mineral supplements and bankrupt health food stores across Britain was upheld this morning.
The European Court of Justice approved the Food Supplements Directive even though the court’s own Advocate-General advised that the Directive was invalid under EU law.
The ruling – greeted with surprise – is a defeat for a concerted campaign by more than a million British health food customers and shops. They have argued that the law, which will come into effect on August 1, will impose an unprecedented level of regulation on mineral supplements and could threaten the existence of small suppliers.

Natural Birth
Okay I’ll admit that I only began reading this webpage because I have a bit of a fetish for pregnant women, and the image struck me a bit, but then I became interested…
“The antithesis of a natural birth is a medically managed, passive hospital birth. I believe our current standard of medically managed birth is the first step in stripping a mother of trust in her instincts and decision making abilities.”
Protect the Western Arctic Reserve From Big Oil
The Western Arctic Reserve, also known as the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska, is the largest tract of unprotected, relatively pristine public land in the United States. The 23.5 million-acre reserve is home to imperiled polar bears, seabirds and one of the densest populations of nesting raptors in the world. Its shores and lagoons harbor beluga whales, seals, walruses and other marine mammals. The BLM is accepting comments on a planning document that sets the stage for oil and gas leasing in the western Arctic for decades to come. Help save this national treasure by telling the BLM to protect the Western Arctic Reserve from dirty fossil fuel development »
