Thought of the Week:
“What lies behind us,and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.”…….Ralph Waldo Emerson
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************
FYI – Its all about Venus and love…
It involves the planet Venus and will be bringing gifts of amplified love to humanity.
Venus will transit across the sun – something that will not happen for another 100+ years until 2117 – next Tuesday eve. through to Wednesday am.
This is a pivotal point in a monumental year that is birthing a new world through the awakening of consciousness.
I share more about this in my article below: www.globalloveproject.com/the-venus-transit-2012
This month’s article is by Sonobird Rose Truth – “Creativity as a Means to Evolution”.
Art of all kinds opens doors for us to evolve. Anytime we allow ourselves the freedom to express ourselves freely and in nonlinear ways we open to other dimensions of consciousness. Dancing, singing, drawing, poetry, writing are all open invitations for larger consciousness to become evident in our 3-d world…. Read More

HEALTH TIP – Benefits of Mung Beans.
Mung Beans
Mung beans are one of those foods that seem to be loved or hated but this humble food is actually a nutritional powerhouse and may actually be able to be defined as a superfood. Read on to learn more about their health benefits.
What are Mung Beans?
Mung beans are part of the legume family and are a good source of protein. If they are combined with other cereals, a complete protein can be made. When sprouted, mung beans contain vitamin C that is not found in the bean itself.
Health Benefits of Mung Beans
Mung beans are rich in the following nutrients :
- protein
- vitamin C
- folic acid or folate
- iron
- zinc
- potassium
- magnesium
- copper
- manganese
- phosphorus
- thiamine
Mung beans are also high in fibre, low in saturated fat, low in sodium, and contain no cholesterol. Because of the wide range of nutrients contained in mung beans, they offer a whole host of health benefits for the immune system, the metabolism, the heart and other organs, cell growth, protection against free radicals, and diseases such as cancer and diabetes.
The folic acid, or folate as it is also known, that is contained in mung beans helps to lower the risk of heart disease, fights birth defects, contributes to normal cell growth, helps in the metabolism of proteins, and is essential for the formation of red blood cells and for healing processes in the body.
Another B vitamin, thiamine, is needed to ensure that the nervous system functions properly. It is also important for releasing energy from carbohydrates.
Manganese is a trace mineral that is key for energy production and antioxidant defenses. It is also necessary for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, and can be helpful for the brain and nerves.
Magnesium helps the veins and arteries to relax, lessening resistance and improving the flow of blood, oxygen, and nutrients throughout the body. Research has shown that a deficiency of magnesium is not only associated with a heart attack but that immediately following a heart attack, a lack of magnesium promotes free radical damage to the heart.
The body requires copper in order to absorb iron and copper is also involved in the metabolism of protein.
Iron helps to build resistance to stress and disease and it is essential for the formation of hemoglobin, which carries oxygen from the lungs to every cell in the body. It is also part of key enzyme systems for energy production and metabolism.
Potassium is necessary for maintaining the acid-alkaline balance in the blood and for muscle contraction and a normal heart beat.
Zinc is a well known immune system booster and can be helpful in fighting male infertility. Zinc aids healing processes in the body, growth, and tissue repair.
Like all legumes, mung beans are very high in fibre – more so than fruits and vegetables and even better than wholegrains. The soluble fibre in mung beans captures cholesterol in the intestines, keeps it out of the blood stream, and carries it out of the body.
Using Mung Beans:
Mung beans can be used in a variety of ways. They can be sprouted, cooked, or ground to make flour. Delicious in soups and in some Asian countries, it is made into a paste, sweetened, and used as a filling in pastries, and in other countries it is even made into ice cream and lollipops. Mung beans should be washed well to remove impurities. They also contain very few oligosaccharides, the sugars responsible for flatulence. …….from Natural Therapy Pages.

In and Around The Academy
With Rosemary Butterworth
As the times appear to be getting more stressful, remember the value of getting together. I often hear people say, “Gosh I feel good now”, at the end of a Monday night at an Academy meeting. To me, that is because we have meditated together, left our stress behind and for an hour or two have been present and relaxed in good company.
We have been told before that we cannot hold our energy ‘up’ alone. So if you are feeling down, a little depressed or worried why not come along and in the meditation, imagine seeing your past go, your disappointments, resentment, guilt or any emotion that no longer serves you and make room for a new future.
Bring all your troubles to an Academy Monday night meeting and watch them dissolve!

JAMES KORBER -‘Atlas Realignment / Gateway Technique’
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, ridgidity, 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.
