My Latest Painting: I Am Nothing, I Am Everything, All At Once

Healing Artwork, Soul Healing / By

Today I want to share with you the latest painting I just painted. You can probably tell from some of my recent blog posts that I’ve been thinking a lot about the preciousness of our fleeting time on this earth.  About how our bodies reflect God’s divine design, and about the beauty that is inherent in the death transition.     So I wanted to paint it.   To somehow capture that moment when your physical body releases your energetic body and the dissolution of the tangible flows into the intangible.  How must that feel?

In medical school, I had an attending physician who had a heart transplant. He said as they removed his heart on the operating table, he went somewhere totally different than earth. After putting his new heart in, the surgeon shocked it to get it to start beating again. He says he felt that shock and felt himself feeling pulled back into his physical body and when he woke

Aspirin Prevents Cancer… But There Is A Much Safer Way

Grounding, Medical Reports / By

Yet another study reports that long term aspirin use is associated with a reduced risk of death from all causes… …and specifically a reduced risk of death from cancer.   Remember when I blogged about this back in August 2014? The study at that time reported a 30% — 35% reduction in the risk of developing colorectal cancer, a 25% reduction in the risk of developing esophageal and stomach cancers, and smaller risk reduction in the other cancer categories (prostate, lung, breast.) The latest study back this finding up, finding a 7% reduction in mortality from all causes put together
