Breaking News: Humans can Regrow Body Parts (Naturally)

As you know, I have always pondered on the extent of human potential for healing - after all, there are animals in nature that can do so much, from electrocuting you, to outliving the average human lifespan and even regrowing lost body parts; new research says that humans can do this - imagine, growing a new organ without any surgery!

"Regrowing amputated limbs, broken backs and even damaged brains could one day be a reality after scientists discover a gene that is key to the almost magical ability" - telegraph.co.uk

Recent research has found that the gene p21 appears to block the healing power still enjoyed by some creatures including amphibians but lost through evolution to all other animals - seems like evolution doesn't always "grow" in the right direction; why would evolution want to block healing?

Wistar researchers said the following:

"In normal cells, p21 acts like a brake to block cell cycle progression in the event of DNA damage, preventing the cells from dividing and potentially becoming cancerous"

This is exciting news - it will even hurt the retina's of sceptics everywhere!

It has long been told, that yogi masters who practice the art of meditation, can access their subconscious mind; which controls vital functions of our bodies (from the very heart beat to hormone excretion). The problem was, there was never enough "proof" to show for it; at least for the sceptics out there - Now there is proof that the human mind is capable of turning "on" and "off" genes within the human body!

"It's not all in your head" says Dr. Herbert Benson, president emeritus of the Benson-Henry Institute for Mind/Body Medicine at Massachusetts General Hospital and as associate professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. "What we have found is that when you evoke the relaxation response, the very genes that are turned on or off by stress are turned the other way. The mind can actively turn on and turn off genes. The mind is not separate from the body."

He believes that this study is the first comprehensive look at how mind states can affect gene expression. More details of the study can be found in this document by Amanda Gardner, a HealthDay Reporter.

The Plant that Pretends to be ill

A leaf damaged by mining moths (left) compared to one faking it (right).

A plant that pretends to be ill has been found growing in the rainforests of Ecuador 

The plants feigns sickness to stop it being attacked by insect pests known as mining moths, which would otherwise eat its healthy leaves.The discovery is published in the journal Evolutionary Ecology.

In theory, plants with variegated leaves should be at a disadvantage, because of this restricted ability to photosynthesise.

But a chance discovery by a team of botanists suggests this may not be true after all. Instead, some variegated plants may be mimicking illness to avoid being eaten, putting themselves at an advantage.

How to Heal a Broken Heart - Ancient Secrets

I often wondered what is the best way when it comes to healing a broken heart (or any kind of emotional healing) - only recently by observing an ancient system (Chakras), I discovered a simple truth: talking about it, heals the heart - and so does listening to music!

I know, I know ; you will have most likely known about these "healing" methods - but you most likely did not know WHY; in my article on Emotional Healing, I explain how each chakra envelops the chakra below it - this is why healing is ideal when it comes from "above" (The Chakra above). 

Now you just have to look at a 7 chakra system chart, assign your problem to the chakra closely related, and use something from the chakra ABOVE the problem chakra, to heal/solve the issue!

Korea does what the US refuses to do: Restrict junk food advertising to children

Korea has put a ban on junk food from all TV from 5pm to 7pm - and completely prohibited junk food advertising during children's programs - foods high in fat, sugar and salt - foods like hamburgers, pizzas, instant noodles, even chocolate, candies and ice cream! 

I think it is a brilliant idea; kids minds are open to new ideas (including negative) and commercials of foods that are not ideal for your health, can have a negative impact. That does not mean to say that you cannot enjoy such foods in a balanced way.

Emotional Healing: Vital for Ultimate Health

All health conscious people know that having an exercise program 3 times a week is great for your body's health - they also know that incorporating raw foods is great; but most never even look at working on emotional health, either because they don't understand its harmful effects on the body; or because they simply are embarrassed to talk about emotional problems. 

"The causes of hormone imbalance vary, but one of the main culprits is stress" - NaturalNews.com

Emotional stress is so powerful, it can actually cause the following, directly:

- Increased heart rate

- High Blood Pressure

- Hair Loss

Does the above list look familiar in any way? 

The first two are the number one causes of deaths in the western world (Heart & Circulation related) - and the last one, hair loss - is so common in today's society, it makes me feel sick that doctors can still call this "bad genetics" and ignore the fact that today's society is in dangerous levels of stress.

Today's average person, is under more stress, than any other time in the history of mankind. 

I repeat: Today's average person, is under more stress, than any other time in the history of mankind. 

Even if you exercise and have a "perfect" diet full of vitamins and minerals - you are still at risk - because problems of the mind, can only be fully solved from the mind. 

So, how do I heal from emotional stress?

The best way to solve problems of the mind - is to simply observe them. 

Practice meditation - observing your thoughts; there is a reason why meditation is/was practised in the history of every religion in some shape or form - you cannot have a thought, without a feeling. 

So to stop stressful feelings, you need more control (for lack of a better word) your thoughts - best way to do that, is sitting quietly and simply observing your thoughts.
