the healthy living manifesto Harvard Map Collection The Harvard Map Collection is one of the oldest and largest collections of cartographic materials in the United States with over 500,000 items. Resources range from 16th century globes to modern maps and geographic information systems (GIS) layers. A selection of our materials has been digitally imaged and is offered both as true picture images and georeferenced copies. This Virtual Collection includes those maps and atlases that are available through the Harvard Image Delivery Service. Only a small portion of the Map Collection has been cataloged and included in Hollis and an even smaller selection are included in this virtual collection as digital images.

we have a responsibility ... TaskJuggler - A Free and Open Source Project Management Software - About TaskJuggler the four directions Are you an Empath? By Openhand Guest Writer for Wake Up World Unfolding the Higher Paradigm. Imagine being able to feel and sense everything, whether positive or negative around you, 24/7. Empaths incarnate into this world without a manual. Everything is energy Everything is energy, pulsating particular vibrations. Empaths will feel the energy in the field, feel the energy of conversation, feel body language, feel words used (or not used) without intellectual interpretation. Because of the tendency for people to hide the full story, or try to control the situation, an empath will tend to feel a huge inner conflict or inability to process the enormity of the engagement. “Make it go away!!!” Most people who have this trait do not see it as a gift. In my early days I used to cry out to the universe “I don’t want to feel all this energy – it’s not mine”… the universe would always reply that it is a gift. “How on earth is this a gift!!!” Powerful impetus to sort it out Finding inner peace and stability Soul to Soul
A Disconnected Humanity: The Age of Pineal Suppression By Michael Roads Guest Writer for Wake Up World We live in an age of pineal suppression. As we become less self-reliant so also our relationship with the world around us is reduced and diminished. We live in a world where over a hundred million people in the Western World take anti-depressants on a daily basis. The answer is simple: from a metaphysical viewpoint, our pineal is the interface between we humans and the greater world around us; the galaxy around us; and even the multiverse in which we live. We all know that if you disconnect an electrical appliance from electricity, it will not work. If you find the idea of a multiverse too challenging, then we will call it your connection with the greater reality in which you live. And most people have no comprehension of this whatsoever. This has had a very detrimental affect on our innate and natural ability to live with powerful inner visions, with deep intuitive insight, and our natural ability for mystical cognition.

Power robs the brain of empathy Researchers have some new insights into how power diminishes a person's capacity for empathy. According to scientists, a sense of power shuts down a part of the brain that helps us connect with others. For their study that builds on past information about how the brain operates, the researchers found that even the smallest bit of power - for instance from a job promotion or more money - can shut down our ability to empathize with others. Sukhvinder Obhi, a neuroscientist at Wilfrid Laurier University in Ontario, Canada and his colleagues Jeremy Hogeveen and Michael Inzlicht, conducted an experiment that shows people in charge can lose their ability to be compassionate because power affects the mirror system of the brain. A look at the mirror system The mirror system is activated by neurons in the brain when we watch other people. Read more...
