Are we evolving to a new species?
Throughout human evolution, multiple versions of humans co-existed. Could we be mid-upgrade now? At TEDxSummit, Juan Enriquez sweeps across time and space to bring us to the present moment — and shows how technology is revealing evidence that suggests rapid evolution may be under way.

HEALTH TIP – Boost your Health with Tomatoes
According to recent research, the humble tomato may be a superstar at preventing disease. An article printed in the American Journal of Lifestyle Medicine and reviewed by Medical News Today, says the tomato is one of our richest sources of antioxidants and may be able to help prevent a host of serious disorders, including cancer and cardiovascular disease.
It is particularly interesting to note that one of the key antioxidants in tomatoes, lycopene, has been shown to be even more effective after cooking and processing than before. This is in contrast to so many other fresh fruits and vegetables, whose antioxidants and other health promoting ingredients have diminished effectiveness after cooking or processing.
There is an abundance of evidence suggesting that we need to dramatically change our diets and lifestyles in order to live longer, happier lives. For so many Western cultures, this is very difficult to achieve. Our hurried lifestyles and the quick and easy access to processed foods make it hard to adopt the diet we know would be best for us. We use tomatoes in so many ways already, making it a point to add more of them to our diet may be an easy way to start on the road to a healthier diet.
What’s Inside a Tomato?
Aside from lycopene, tomatoes also contain other benefits, such as antithrombotic and anti-inflammatory mechanisms. In addition, researchers have found evidence to suggest there is a relationship between tomatoes and a decreased risk of contracting certain cancers, skin damage from ultraviolet light, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis and even cognitive dysfunction.
According to Britt Burton-Freeman, PhD, MS, and Kristin Reimers, PhD, RD, the researchers who conducted the study and authored the original article, spreading the word about tomatoes “may be one simple and effective strategy to help individuals increase vegetable intake, leading to improved overall eating patterns, and ultimately, better health.”
The Importance of a Colourful Diet
This study of the health benefits of tomatoes came on top of the latest update of the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010. The USDA update is especially significant because it highlights the vital importance of fruits and vegetables, suggesting that they should make up half of our daily food intake. The guidelines also mention that we should consume red, green and orange coloured fruits and vegetables.
The “colour theory” of nutrition has enjoyed popular support by health practitioners for years. It is encouraging to see that it is now officially recognised as being of nutritional and preventive value. Most of us would agree that a “health food diet” that included a plate of spaghetti with a nice tomato and vegetable sauce and a colourful side salad would not be a difficult diet to stick to and one the whole family would enjoy.

In and Around The Academy
With Rosemary Butterworth
Hullo everyone! Not washed away completely I hope. As you watch the rain pouring down take the opportunity of seeing it wash away pain and suffering and thoughtforms that are negative. Imagine the rain is dissolving them once and for all – imagine that there is less negativity in the world as the rain washes it away.
When you are showering don’t forget to imagine the shower cleaning your etheric body as well as your physical. Imagine the water washing away your past and leaving a space for a new future to come in.
We have been doing this in meditation on a Monday Night and it is proving to be very powerful. So do come along and try it in group energy.

‘Atlas Realignment / Gateway Technique’
JAMES KORBER
James says “the Atlas bone is misaligned in 99% of the population”.
What does this mean to you and me?
1. Spiritually:
* It can mean the gateway between mind and body is closed and this causes separation.
* Separation of consciousness happens within the subconscious mind in the form of patterns, beliefs & thoughts of isolation, lack, dis-ease, limitation, rigidity, judgement, injury, purposelessness, being unconscious of having a soul/spirit.
2. Physically
* This presents as scoliosis, muscle contraction, physical pain,repeated injury, disease etc.
3. Emotionally
* This presents as fear, pain, grief, depression, hopelessness, anxiety, shame, anger & so on.
4. Etherically/energetically
* This presents as fatigue, lethargy, procrastination, helplessness etc.
This has taken James on a journey to find out how to correct the Atlas bone both physically and spiritually together with Freya Sampson, an esoteric healer, to develop the Gateway Technique by integrating both their Mastery.
Come and meet James and Freya and learn how the Golden Ratio meets modern technology to create a soft and gentle massage technique that aligns the head neck and spine.
Lean how through this method you can change and have….
– more balance alignment and flow
– more energy and positivity
– ability to think clearly
– function without pain
– ability to sleep deeply without medication
– back, neck and shoulder pain disappearing
– increased sustained energy
– greater flexibility and balance
When one does the inner and outer work, unblocks and reverses the negative energies in all of the above forms within their being, a person can easily and naturally move into alignment with the energy of life and unity consciousness.
