Understanding Cravings as Messengers by Rebecca Clio Gould What Messages Can You Get from Cravings? Sometimes a craving is a straightforward, crystal clear desire for the actual thing your body is asking for. But sometimes there’s something
Omtimes.com
else you need, or at least something else that can satisfy you. And that something else can take the form of nutrients, actions, or emotions.
• Am I thirsty?
For example, craving chocolate could indicate that your body needs more magnesium. Or it could be that you’re craving physical touch, a feeling of satisfaction through the pleasure of connection, or a rush of oxytocin. It could mean that you’re thirsty or that you’re feeling sad and could use a hug or a walk in some fresh air. Craving a snack, in general, could indicate that your blood sugar is low and you really do need some food. But often, cravings are born out of thirst, boredom, depression, anxiety, or even habit.
• What do I really want?
So, get curious. Not suspicious, shameful, or restrictive. Just curious.
PRACTICE: Identifying Deeper Cravings At the first sign of a craving, shut your eyes and take a deep breath. Ask yourself:
• Am I sleepy? • How am I feeling emotionally? • How do I want to feel? Maybe you just need some water. Or maybe you really want to snuggle or laugh with a lover or friend instead of eating half a pizza or drinking that glass of wine. Or maybe you really do want that pizza or wine, but it’s unlikely you’ll consume as much of it if you’re being mindful of your deeper feelings, desires, and needs. You can even enjoy it more now, guilt-free. As you become more conscious of what underlies your cravings, you’ll be empowered to choose whether, and how, to act on them. When you get curious, you’ll find the healthiest ways to satisfy your cravings and gain more clarity about what it is you truly want or need.
Final Thoughts on Cravings
Omtimes.com
It’s okay to crave what you crave, and, assuming no serious health issues, it’s okay to give in sometimes to things we might consider “bad for us.” You don’t have to always find a substitution. But you do need to stop thinking of it as “bad” if you’re going to eat it. When you feel bad about what you’ve eaten, it defeats the whole purpose of trying to feel good and experience more pleasure. Plus, negative thoughts about what you eat can result in creating a disease process in your body. So be careful what you thinknot fearful, just careful and mindful. Think good, loving, nurturing thoughts about what you take into your body, regardless of what it is. And if you’re going to indulge in a craving for something like ice cream or pizza, or reach out to a partner for sex, let it be from a place of already feeling filled up and content rather than down or empty. It’s natural, and can even be healthy, to give in to your food cravings or reach out for connection, but let’s try to Omtimes.com
go about it from a place of already feeling good.
The Benefits of Relationships and Care You don’t need to feel great to reach out to somebody. One benefit of friendships and relationships is receiving support and an energy boost from your interaction. After all, we all need people. But the idea here is that it’s important to do your practices and take good care of yourself so you can remember that the core of your being contains your own essence, bliss, and contentment. So, reach out consciously rather than in an unconscious sort of default mode. It’s okay to need others, social interaction, and even food, to increase your energy and alter your mood, but be aware of what you’re doing, and do your part to feel your best on your own. About the Author This is an excerpt adapted from the book, The Multi-Orgasmic Diet (http://amzn.to/2evVgym) by Rebecca Clio Gould.
7 Ways Traditional Chinese Medicine Differs from Western Medicine in Treating Infertility by Mary Wong
Help for Infertility with Traditional Chinese Medicine Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a history of over 2,000 years. It stems from Taoist philosophy, which
Omtimes.com
emphasizes living in harmony with nature and being in the present. It’s a holistic practice incorporating acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, lifestyle, exercise, and dietary therapies. Check out some of the ways in which TCM differs from Western medicine in how we view and treat infertility and pregnancy: 1. ART OF THE SENSES In TCM, practitioners spend years perfecting the art of asking questions, feeling the pulse, looking at the tongue and face, listening to the voice, and smelling the patient’s natural odor to formulate a diagnosis-a much necessary practice before the advent of modern science and technology. Today, both systems of medicine can coexist. TCM adds a qualitative check to things Western medicine looks at quantitatively. This involves:
• Asking questions about a patient’s health complaints and symptoms. For example, if you come in with a diagnosis of infertility and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), as was the case for Samantha, TCM not only inquires about your menstrual cycles, but also looks into your mentalemotional state, the health of your other organs and consider complaints such as lethargy, low back pain, headaches, weight gain, frequent colds, and difficulty concentrating to assess your overall health picture. • Feeling the radial artery pulse under the fingertips which provides information about the overall and reproductive health and vitality of a person. While a Western doctor looks at the rate and rhythm of your pulse, your TCM practitioner also pays attention to
Omtimes.com
strength and how your blood flows within the blood vessels. (By the way, pulse taking originates from China.)
having to be perfect) in order to conceive a healthy baby to term.
Together, these signs provide the TCM practitioner clues or degrees of imbalance in either body, mind, and spirit.
With Samantha, her menstrual cycle was nonexistent but she was able to restore it naturally not only through acupuncture, but also by changing her lifestyle and dietary habits. Rather than being sedentary, she began walking during her lunch hour. Instead of a coffee and muffin or donut for breakfast, she replaced it with green tea and oatmeal decreasing her sugar and wheat intake by 75 percent. This made for a more balanced approach to life.
2. BALANCE
3. QI
According to TCM, healthy conception requires balance in body, mind, emotion, and spirit. TCM recognizes that your internal and external environment affects this balance. The idea is to work towards balance (rather than
Qi is what TCM refers to as your ‘life force’ energy. Chinese medicine frames vitality in terms of energy and teaches that an imbalance of energy could contribute to overall health issues and fertility challenges.
• Looking at the tongue, (the only visible muscle) for its color, shape, and coating; and at the face which reflects the state of the inner body. • Listening to the strength, tone, and sound of the voice and breath astutely. • Smelling the general odor of a patient.
Omtimes.com
When Samantha first came to see me, her stress was through the roof. She felt lethargic and depressed, like her life force was literally sucked out of her. Samantha was anxious and fearful about her inability to conceive. She worried about her job security and her late arrival at work when she went to the fertility clinic almost every morning for testing (with blood work and ultrasounds) to track her ovulation. Her energy was tied up in stress, leaving little energy left for growth and reproduction. TCM focuses on conserving Qi, managing stress and other wasteful expenditures of Qi in order to re-direct Qi to optimize reproductive function. 4. FOCUS ON PREVENTION, NOT PATHOLOGY In Western medicine, you aren’t taught to prevent illnesses growing up. The Western model focuses on treatment, instead of the
cure. If you have pain, you are given anti-inflammatories and painkillers. If you have PCOS and no menstruation like Samantha, you are given hormones to force menstruation. Unfortunately, most of us wait until something goes wrong before we treat it. TCM’s wisdom comes with a focus on the prevention of illness; in the days of the Emperor, his physician was paid for when the Emperor was well and not when he was ill. Instead of hormonal drugs to help restore Samantha’s non-existent period, acupuncture and her lifestyle and dietary changes allowed her to lose weight and be happier. Her blood and energy flow redirected itself back to her reproductive organs and her hormones were normalized resulting in ovulation and regular menstrual cycles.
Omtimes.com
5. STRESS Only recently has Western medicine begun researching how stress can impede your ability to conceive. TCM, on the other hand has understood that stress disturbs our balance and creates disharmony between nature and us. TCM categorizes stress as either external or internal. External stress can come from your work and/or home life, the food you eat, and exposure to chemicals and contaminants. Internal stress also relates to prolonged suppressed emotions and the state of your mind and soul. The importance is not only about getting rid of unnecessary stressors in your life but also finding ways to manage your stress and stress response to optimize fertility and pregnancy to term. Once Samantha took time off from
Omtimes.com
her toxic work environment, it also allowed her to breathe again. Thus, she could do what she needed to thrive. 6. THE SEVEN AFFECTS OF EMOTION As mentioned before, emotions play a large role in your wellbeing. It is healthy and human to express joy, sorrow, worry, grief, fear, fright, and anger. Neglecting or internalizing these feelings may give rise to disharmony affecting your Qi and physical well-being, including your fertility. Being a private person, Samantha harbored her emotions of fear, worry, anxiety, sadness, and grief. But through my encouragement, she went to a local fertility support group. Letting go of pent up emotions allowed her to feel physically lighter and more energetic while emotionally happier.
7. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY In general, Western medicine focuses on improving quantity, while TCM focuses on quality. Western medicine aims to increase the quantity of eggs released at ovulation artificially induced by hormonal drugs to increase your odds of pregnancy. TCM, on the other hand, aims to create healthier eggs. The belief is that eggs can grow to their full potential given the right environment. The idea of having an ovary full of ‘bad eggs’ is inaccurate. Samantha took hormone drugs multiple times which never resulted in a pregnancy. It was only after she worked on balancing herself physically, emotionally and spiritually did she end up conceiving the child of her dreams
naturally. You can read more about her story in Pathways To Pregnancy - Personal Stories and Practical Advice for your Fertility Journey.

How to Deal with Feng Shui Emergencies by Kartar Diamond
Are There Really Any Feng Shui Emergencies?
happening in a person’s life, the analysis can’t happen too soon.
Often, I get calls from prospective clients, who want their initial Feng Shui assessment done as soon as possible. Things may have been going badly in their lives for a long time. But, once a client makes the decision to investigate the relationship between Feng Shui and what is
Are there really any Feng Shui emergencies? After more than two decades of consulting, I would say that there really are not too many instances where it is a true emergency. Any practitioner with integrity would not overpromise that results will come instantaneously.
Omtimes.com
The Many Factors Involved in Feng Shui From a strictly practical standpoint, I do have clients who want answers from me within hours. They are usually house hunting and need to make a commitment one way or the other very quickly. But, in terms of someone having a horrible circumstance in their lives, employing Feng Shui adjustments, and then seeing results, there is no guarantee that resolution of a problem will come immediately. Why? Because there are too many other factors involved besides Feng Shui (your immediate environment). Even though I love Feng Shui and have a lot of confidence in the “remedies” we use, we can’t guarantee results 100 percent of the time. This is because there are so many other variables outside of our control to influence an outcome or dramatic change in a person’s life. For example, I remember many years ago, I was seeing a lot of people in the entertainment industry. They were getting good, prompt results. When adjustments were made to their home or
work environment, it enhanced individual luck. And then, the actor’s strike came and the writer’s strike, and sometimes Feng Shui alone could not kickstart a person’s career. This is because something much larger and undermining was looming over the entire industry.
Economic Factors May be a Bigger Emergency Nowadays, the economy is very anemic in many industries and types of business. While we can make some improvements in a person’s life, if a larger force, even a global force is in play, then the minor adjustments made to an individual’s home may not work as powerfully. (Just recall the 2008 U.S. Bank bail-out when people were panicking about the economy and some bankers were jumping out of windows). But let’s get back to the topic of emergencies. If your house is on fire, perhaps there was a Feng Shui component to making it more vulnerable. But, once the fire starts, it is too late to theorize about remedies. Or, if someone has been suffering with cancer, and there is a Feng Shui component Omtimes.com
to it (meaning the Feng Shui environment is not supporting health), then we cannot count on late adjustments to the environment to completely reverse the situation.
Bad Scenarios and Convergence of Feng Shui Flaws In fact, bad scenarios are often due to a convergence of numerous Feng Shui flaws and not just one imperfect feature to a house, building, or neighborhood. Usually, it is the momentum of things being unbalanced for a while which manifests eventually as a chronic problem, or something sudden happening like an accident. That said, I have seen some interesting changes occur rather quickly on a less dramatic scale. One client called off an engagement and then back on in just a couple weeks’ time after adjustments were made to her bedroom. Another client said his daughter’s bad behavior changed within days after an adjustment was made. I have countless stories about romance remedies being
Omtimes.com
added and the client notices a shift immediately. So, it is possible for good changes to occur in such a short amount of time. This makes it believable that something as subtle as Feng Shui had a direct effect on the change.
Most Adjustments Require Time to Take Effect There are many different types of adjustments. When we add certain elements to a room, like metal or water, the results can come quickly or gradually. When there is a qi flow problem, such as a front door aligned directly with a back door, buffering that direct alignment can shift the energy immediately. The predictable result can come quickly too, such as being able to save money easier. About the Author Kartar Diamond trained classically in Feng Shui and is a practitioner since 1992.

People Have Good Intentions When It Comes to Money Years ago, my fabulous reason for having money was, “I should have lots of money because I will do good things with it. I will
Omtimes.com
use it to help people.” Now, there is nothing wrong with that idea essentially, but what it meant was that with every bit of money that came into my life, I could not allow it to contribute to my own life. I wasn’t in the equation of people who I could help with it. This basically meant that anytime I received any money, I had to get rid of it. I couldn’t have it in my life, or let it contribute to me directly, because I had to be helping other people all the time. The funny thing is, once I allowed myself to have money, to really have it in my life and let it contribute to my life, to enjoy it, and to enjoy being me, my ability to contribute to others increased - and continues to increase - exponentially.
Is There Such a Thing as Equal Opportunity Money? Here is the thing: money does not have a point of
view. It does not have a moral compass that says, “You have been good, so you can have more money,” or “You have been bad, so no money for you!” Money doesn’t judge. Money shows up to people who ask and are willing to receive it. Look at the world; have you noticed that there are kind and unkind people with money, and kind and unkind people without money? You do not have to prove that you are good or bad, or that you deserve money. You must be willing to stop judging whether you deserve money and ask for it, just because you can. Just because it’s fun to have money!
How to Have Money Come to You If you are ready to let go of your judgments about you, specifically about you with regards to money, and invite money into your life, here are three things you can do.
Omtimes.com
Ask Money to Show Up What if you could ask for money, just because you know life might be more fun with it than without it? What if the purpose of your life is to have fun?
it going to take for this to show up?” Live Your Life as a Celebration NOW A lot of people think that when they have money, then they will be happy. The opposite is true. Money follows joy. Joy does not follow the money. Start to live your life as a joyful celebration today.
Maybe you’ve heard the saying, “Ask and you shall receive.” It’s true; money desires to contribute to you. Money desires to play with you. Most people don’t ask for money because they have so many beliefs about what it takes to have it, how hard you must work for it, where it can and cannot come from, who should have it, who shouldn’t and on and on it goes. These beliefs keep people from simply asking for money to show up.
What do you love to do? What makes you happy? Do you like to run? Practice yoga? Cook? Travel? Go out with friends? Start to write a list of the things that you enjoy doing and then do them; one full hour every day and one full day a week.
What would you like your life to be like? How much money would it take to live the life you desire? Get clear on how much money it would take to live the way you want to every month and then ask, “What’s
When you choose to live your life as a celebration when you choose to do what bring you joy, you will start having more fun in life, and your money will increase. Money follows joy.
Omtimes.com
Ask Questions that Invite Money Questions are the invitation to receive, which allows money to show up. If you start a question with “Why” or “How “ most often you are not really asking a question. If you are looking for an answer (or you can already predict an answer to the question) - guess what? You are not actually asking a question! Here are examples of questions that will invite money. • What could show up that would work out greater than I could imagine? • What’s right about me that I am not getting? • What can I be or do differently each day to become more aware of the choices, possibilities, and contributions that are available to me in every moment?
Receiving money, having money, increasing money has nothing to do with whether you have done things right or wrong, whether you are good enough or not good enough. Money does not discriminate. If you would like to change your financial situation, you can. Ask for money to show up. Live the celebration of life every day. Invite money in by asking questions. Money come, money come, money come.

What Are the News You Can Trust? by Kathy Custren
Human Interest Relies on the Most Accurate News As we meet the New Year 2017, so much of our attention is directed to the accuracy of the news we read, hear, and experience. For much of the last century, human interest has been drawn to the regular publication of news on which we can rely. First in print, then on television, we turn to the Omtimes.com
news media on a regular basis for the facts we need to thrive and survive. What does it take to be a journalist, as opposed to a good storyteller? Oral storytelling has been part of the story of humanity from the time language started. Verbal histories weave the tale of our human tapestry for
thousands of years, until the advent of print. With actual, written stories, the need to be accurate increased.
The Changing Media |over the Years The reason for the accuracies, of fact, substance, and structure, were expected so as not to detract from the story. It became increasingly clear that stories were one thing, and facts we needed to know should be less obscure. Storytelling may relay an important moral; but when it comes to facts, sugar coating the news can bring problems. So, we grew to rely on not only a good and effective story, we grew to rely on the news for the facts. Important new ideas, examples, evidence, scientific innovations, and more all came to us in newsprint. We fought two world wars before television invaded our homes in the 1950s.
News Reading and Story Telling - Entertaining? Over time and especially in our recent history, we have come to see the “paper
tales” of books become ever more visually appealing. It is no longer adequate for an orator or statesman to stand behind a podium and make a speech. Today, press releases give way to “media events,” where things are televised and scripted as well as any play of yore. With so much focus on cosmetics and fitting the next sound bite to appeal to the audience, the ‘show’ of reporting rides in front of the truth, which often feels like it takes a back seat. These televised plays have ratings and advertisers, after all; even more than ticking off the sales of newspapers and magazines once did. In reaching the eyes and ears of ‘consumers,’ our most trusted news sources have become what is called ‘infotainment.’
Internal Recognition of What Reaches Us And all of what assails our eyes and ears can sometimes fail to ring true with what our own internal, gut feelings are on the subject. The news takes on the job of reporting the latest Omtimes.com
actions as they happen. It remains up to us to ingest and assimilate that information. Good reporters do not worry about just looking and sounding good on camera. They have the skill to report to us in a language we can grasp.
online sources have moved to make it a little easier to know when you are dealing with a reliable source. To find the most accurate sites on the web these days, there may be stars, flags, banners, or other check marks to indicate reliability.
Like any good story, we come to trust the actors giving the performance. Think of some of the more popular news reporters over the years: Walter Cronkite, Peter Jennings, and others. They were not only welcome into our living rooms; they had the respect of the audience, and that respect worked both ways. In today’s disposable news environment, we must weed through the fluff and trappings, past the stylish clothes and graphical technology that meets our eyes, to arrive at the real information being relayed.
Whatever we read or accept as news ought to be more than gossip. It ought to be more than downright lies, and more than manipulation. When it comes to the most accurate news today, it is like any marketplace: Caveat Emptor Let the buyer beware.
How to Determine the Most Accurate News? Online news articles can be used to manipulate people who do not question its authenticity. Some of the more responsible

You and the Unloved Ones by Georgina Cannon
Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness ~ James Thurber This article is about the people you are supposed to like or love but can’t stand, such as extended family or friends of friends. Currently, most relationships are forged from the erroneous idea that we Omtimes.com
have to be the same to get along and that differences between us are to be avoided at all costs. We all have ‘em. Friends that we love deeply who have friends we can’t stand. Extended family members who are disruptive, emotionally diminishing, or just plain pains in the butt! If we had the choice, these people wouldn’t be a part of our lives but because they are, through loving connections with others, we have to find a way of making the relationship with them work (without too many sighs or feelings of martyrdom, which are soooo unattractive <<grin>>). Often in our minds, conflict can be resolved only with an I-win-you-lose self-righteous stance (legs spread, hands on hips, chin raised!). But that doesn’t work long term in any setting. And if your unloved ones are going to be with you for a while (a job, a family, or a friend of a friend), you
need to rethink that and really grow up. Put your big person pants on, and make it work. Living alongside our “unloved ones” takes some planning, forethought, and initial work. We need to go inside ourselves to find out what exactly bothers us-and then realize that we expect people to take us the way we are, but we don’t take other folks the way they are! It’s a shocking truth, but it’s reality. So if we don’t first take the time to go within ourselves, we often go without the peace and freedom that comes with understanding and allowance. We also need to recognize all the “yes, but’s” we put up along the way. It isn’t the mountain ahead that wears you out; it’s the grain of sand in your shoe. ~ Robert W. Service So let’s start. In general, we usually like people who are like us: same values, same
Omtimes.com
patterns, same way of seeing the world. So if we can find a way to make ourselves in some way-however smalllike or appreciate the person who drives us crazy, there’s a possibility that we can make our life easier. “You are kidding, right? Make myself like that idiot who drives me nuts. Madame Drama Queen? Gossip-hungry, two-faced know-it-all. Why would I want to do that?” Relax… I’m not asking you to turn into a mealy-mouthed, small-minded person, or a world’s-coming-to-an-end drama debutante, or even a gossip hungry, smiley-faced, stab-you-in-the-back cousin. Listen carefully, and read s-lo-w-l-y (yes, calm down…). I said, make ourselves, in some way-some way, which includes subconscious body movements, speech patterns, even breath rhythm. Because science has shown that human beings all have a need to be accepted and
Omtimes.com
appreciated. We subconsciously check for similarities or differences in others. We need to find-or make - a “sameness”: the existence of common ground, of common humanity. If we can make ourselves similar by something as simple as breathing in the same sequence, or talking at the same pace, or sitting in the same position, we create a deep subconscious feeling of acceptance. And the other person doesn’t even know it’s happening. In neurolinguistics programming (NLP) jargon, it’s called “rapport” subconscious rapport. All the other person knows is that they feel more comfortable with you. You might want to read some NLP books or take some classes to find out more. I promise you, it will make a h-u-uu-ge difference in your life, especially in your relationships with the unloved ones. Generosity arises on its own steam. It is not debated. It comes without being
bidden. It comes because your heart simply desires to go this way and not another. Your heart may not even be aware of feeling generous, because this is what your heart wants to do, the same way you open a window when you want a breeze. ~ HeavenLetters.org The next level of change in moving toward cohabitation on this planet with the unloved ones is listening. Really listening. Listen to the other with a view to understanding, not disagreement or agreement. This is not the time to prove you are right and they are wrong. You are listening and learning their view of their world so that you can better understand their personal needs, hopes, dreams, and wishes. Whether or not they share the same political views or social understandings as you do, it’s more important to realize where you are similarlove of family, animals, the
outdoors … whatever. Make it your goal to find the sameness, not the differences. It changes the energy between you. Everyone wants to be accepted and respected for who they are. It’s your job, as the person who wants to live in harmony, to find that place in them that can be respected and accepted in your mind and heart. Be generous with yourself, without losing your core. Life gets easier that way. And most importantly, you retain your power - your strength. You don’t lose it to anger or irritation. You are in charge! The willingness to accept responsibility for one’s own life is the source from which self-respect springs. ~ Joan Didion
Life Values Changes Chart List and look at your life values, and see how you can apply them to this relationship. Never mind what you perceive the other person to be-Untrust-

worthy, Mean-Spirited, and so forth-it’s what you are that will make the difference. And if one of your values is Kindness, then use it, knowing that how you change will change the relationship and the energy around it. Once you change the energy, everything changes. Life Values: 1. --------------------------------2. --------------------------------3. --------------------------------4. --------------------------------5. ---------------------------------
Knowing how you respond to any situation is the first step to change. We can’t change anything until we know what we’re changing. And change takes time, in addition to awareness. How we respond to others is a pattern, a habit, stemming from old responses. Habits and patterns take time to change, but the awareness is a must, first. Here goes!

• About the situation?

• It would be better if… • What feelings would result if? … • It’s unfortunate… • I’m disappointed… • I’m seriously concerned… • I regret… • I’m committed to… And remember, once again, to ask yourself the following questions: • How do I keep this relationship healthy (or as healthy as it can be for the sake of my best friend, family, co-workers, and so forth)? • What did I do today that seemed to improve the relationship? • Did my actions enhance and enrich the relationship in the long term? • What are my concerns about this relationship? • What do I really want from this relationship?
Key Learnings • Living in anger or irritation is no way to live; it’s damaging to mind and body.
• There are always some points of connection if we look hard enough. • They are who they are, and they have a right to be who they are… as do you.

Relationships
The interconnectiveness among all human beings and, consequently, the relationships among us are the focus of this section. The dynamics of the web of connections we make is one of the most prominent aspects of human existence: how we interlace with each otherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s existence in a meaningful way.
Is Ghosting an Appropriate Way to End a Relationship? by Marcia Sirota, MD.
Ghosting - The Modern Way to End Relationships In June of last year, Charlize Theron broke off her engagement with Sean Penn. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not news in Hollywood, as relationships between actors or other celebrities seem to have an inevitable, early
Omtimes.com
expiration date. What was interesting was the news that Charlize engaged in ghosting, which is the act of completely cutting off contact with the other person. In this era of being superconnected through our technology, the most shocking thing we can do today is to totally disconnect from another person. It’s impossible to know why Charlize chose ghosting as her way of dealing with Sean, or even if that’s what she did. But it makes me think about the whole idea of making a clean break from someone in a world that’s all about connectivity. In the old days, when we no longer wanted to have contact with someone, we’d stop returning their calls and hope that eventually, they’d figure out that we were done with them. Today, it’s impossible for someone to misunderstand things when suddenly, they’ve been unfriended from Facebook, deleted from someone’s contacts or unfollowed on Twitter and Instagram. It’s unambiguous.
Giving a New Name to an Old Strategy Ghosting isn’t new. It’s been around for a long time; it just didn’t have a name. Today, it’s become a “thing” because of how inter-connected we all are. If we decide to engage in ghosting with one of our friends, all our other contacts will be aware of it. It’s that much more hurtful and humiliating to the person who’s been cut off. So, is ghosting good or bad? To me, it depends on the reasons for doing it. I’ve heard many stories from people who couldn’t understand why a supposedly close friend suddenly stopped communicating with them. They never did find out why it happened. Sometimes, ghosting is the easy way out for someone who hates confrontation. They would rather delete a person from their contacts than get into an awkward discussion with them. Sometimes, ghosting can be a spiteful act; a way to punish someone or get back at them.
Omtimes.com
Neither of these reasons are valid. It’s painful not to know why your friend or romantic partner has gone silent. And, it also deprives you of the opportunity to learn what you might have done wrong.
Are there Good Reasons for Ghosting? There is one good reason for ghosting, though; it’s when you’re dealing with someone abusive, unreasonable or unstable. Sometimes it’s clear that any attempts at communication will be futile, or even dangerous. The best option is to totally withdraw from the other person. In these cases, it’s done as much for safety as for anything else. We can also see that ghosting would be a reasonable choice when our friend or partner has done something so unacceptable or unforgivable that we’re justifiably outraged and offended. In this case, either we see no point in trying to discuss what happened, or we’re too upset to talk to the other
Omtimes.com
person, ever again. Ghosting can be the natural and appropriate consequence of someone’s very bad behavior. So, although it’s extremely painful, it’s always a good idea to look within. We can ask ourselves if perhaps, we might have done something to deserve it. Unfortunately, being completely cut off can make it impossible to ever know what we did wrong. So, if Sean Penn did do something to cause Charlize Theron to ghost him, he might be able to figure out what he did to offend her; but then again, maybe not.

Jane Roberts, the Seth Books: An Overlooked Giant by Arthur Telling
Listen to the Audio File
Seth Books - Entity Essence is Popular Material â&#x20AC;&#x153;You make your own reality. There is no other rule.â&#x20AC;? The phenomenally simple yet powerful plainspoken statement comes from a
Omtimes.com
gestalt awareness that has lived numerous lives and is older than the Earth itself. Eighteen volumes were dictated by an entity calling himself Seth through author Jane Roberts speaking in trance, from the late 1960’s until her death in the 1980’s. Her husband at her side transcribing her words, it came to be called the “Seth material”. Her books now in reprint, various forums and classes about her material remain popular. YouTube videos of her speaking in trance are freely available. Yet while alive she stayed lowprofile and didn’t seek fame. The Seth books speak authoritatively, eyewitness observation on the big philosophical question of death and the beyond. In Seth’s realm, thoughts create mental patterns of which emerge before our eyes as our living space. There are no “permanent structures”, he says in “Seth Speaks”
(1972), his first book.
Seth Speaks through Jane Roberts as Facilitator In his “home environment” Seth takes whatever physical shape he chooses, and it may vary according to his thoughts. We too do this, but not at a conscious level, our thoughts constantly changing our bodies in “important chemical and electromagnetic ways.” The only difference between us and Seth is “the degree of proficiency and actualization”; Seth and his peers changing forms with full awareness. Upon passing from this world at death, our bodies - now more dynamic -- will reflect our immediate thoughts. We may become younger or older as our imaginations dictate. Most individuals will choose a form that corresponds to their image at greatest point in their career, “regardless of the beauty or age that
Omtimes.com
characterized that form.” And for communicating with others you may adopt the form that you had at the time when you had known the individual.
Multiple Seth Books with Dynamic Messages His second book, “The Nature of Personal Reality” (1974), explains the growth of “feelings, sensations, I amness, concepts, and beliefs”, as the source of the world’s formation. Earthquakes and overall weather patterns result from mental properties, not exterior ones, and follow deep inner rhythms of emotion. Enhanced and unstable energy found in fault zones draw highly creative individuals. In a later book, “The Individual and the Nature of Mass Events” (1981), Seth tells of how our private experience grows outwardly “in almost vinelike fashion”, pragmatically forming our daily experiences.
Omtimes.com
We plan events in the upper reaches of the mind, individually and collectively. We draw to those events that most suit us. All sorts of dramas - religious movements, earthquakes, hurricanes - are being planned and will emerge into full-blown spatial reality when interest and emotion reach the required intensity.
Vital Messages are Studied to Open Awareness Our well-being is entirely dependent on internal elements. Apathy, despair, and hopelessness change the body’s chemistry, opening it to deadly viruses that otherwise normally contribute to the body’s overall health. Despair rages inwardly like a raging fire, and moves “faster than a mosquito or any outward carrier of a given disease”. To allow the individual to enter a more productive state, we even plan death. Those
wanting to continue with life here will never succumb to the illness “in fashion”. Seth ends this book with these words: “Acknowledge your impulses. Explore their meanings. Rely upon yourselves. You will find far greater power, achievement, and virtue than you suppose.” Jane’s many volumes of metaphysical and psychological information dictated by this powerful voice from another dimension should be regarded as the crown jewel of the Western world. The vast information in these books is in league with and consistent with the East’s religions and the West’s mystic religions teaching selfrealization and liberation from the entrapping physical matter - Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Sufism, Gnosticism, New Age spiritualism, and more - yet with a detailed exactness that transcends
the recorded wisdom of this age. Jane was just an author and a spiritualist from Elmira, New York. She had no following except a group that came to her ESP classes at her home, and she made few appearances, holding no title or honors. A world recognition of this marvelous giant is overdue. About the Author Arthur Telling has written numerous stories and articles on religion, philosophy, and metaphysics. His article, “A Different Jesus Message” appeared in the Nov. 2011 AMORC Rosicrucian Digest. Telling is the author of “Johann’s Awakening” (a parody of Jonathan Livingston Seagull). He also authored three novels including “Kaitlin’s Message,” exploring the secret sayings of the Gospel of Thomas. His web site is: www.arthurtelling.com

-Seeking the highway to Heaven, from Hartford Dearest, It is not the religion that determines where the soul is going at the time of death. It is the level that the individual soul or spirit has reached that will decide the outcome. When I speak of levels, I'm referring to the soul's development or evolution. How enlightened the soul has achieved. All religions are manmade; these doctrines are dogmatic and fear based. Religious leaders say if we go to church, synagogue or mosque torecite prayers, tithe at least ten percent, read the Bible or other spiritual text -- that is the ticket to Heaven. People believe if they don't drink, or smoke, etc. that will get them into heaven. WRONG! What counts is; how you have affected people (souls) and the world around you. Who did you help? What difference did you make along
Omtimes.com
life’s journey? Great importance is placed on your deeds, your thoughts, your words and the intention behind them. A person’s intent or purity of heart will have a big effect on their spiritual growth. Religion is not the same as God's laws. The Universal laws are Gods laws. If you live your life by God's law and not mans, this is a sure way to achieve enlightenment and reach a level of heaven. Because in Heaven there is no religion, there is only love!
So, as you move forward in this lifetime remember the choices you make through your words, deeds and thoughts are creating your future. Your future continues through the transition we call death. So, start now! Live by Gods Universal Laws and let unconditional love guide you.
WHITEDOVE
Dear Whitedove, There are so many religions; each one says they are the only group to get into Heaven, some believe that they’ll get a gaggle of virgins if they martyr themselves. What do you believe the best way to get to Heaven?
Dear Whitedove, I have mixed feelings. Do you believe in reincarnation? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m wondering if I've been here before. -Wondering in Wales Dearest, Yes, I not only believe in reincarnation but I can remember many of my past lives. God grants many of us this privilege. We have all been here hundreds of times or more. Some people experience portions of past lives through dreams. Hypnosis called past-life regressions, or past life reading is also ways of tapping into the subconscious to remember previous life experiences. Think of reincarnation as opportunities to polish and refine our soul. How could we possibly get it right with just one chance? We have all been here many times. There are many good books about reincarnation, my favorites are by Dr. Brian Weiss, "Many Lives, Many Masters" was his first ground breaking book. He has two others that I know you will enjoy in your quest for knowledge.

Dear Whitedove, If God is truly a loving God, why do we have all these religious wars, world hunger, abuse, and poverty? It only seems to get worse: can't he rid the planet of these awful things?
-Looking for peace, in Grand Prairie Dearest, God is a God of love; he created the universes and all that they contain from pure love. God loves us so much that he gave us the free-will to choose and create what we want in our lives.
Men, not God, have created war, world hunger, and poverty. Mankind, meaning a group consciousness or a mass population; has created these things and much more abominations that wound our souls. They are created from negativity and fear. Fear is the opposite of love. Within us all, we have the ability and the power to change a negative into positive. That power is unconditional love; this love energy can transform poverty, war, and hunger. Most people don't realize that one person can make a difference. They think they are just a speck of sand in the sea of life. But remember each of us has had at least one person greatly influence our life whether positive or negative. Think of Jesus or Hitler, how one man changed the landscape for generations. Knowing this is a reminder that we each have an individual responsibility and then we will change as a whole.
As much as people like to point fingers and place blame, it was not our loving God that made these things, we must look at ourselves and make a conscious choice to change,

not only ourselves but our environment, for future generations. Our free will gives us this ability.

Personal Growth & Development
Take Back Authority Over Your Own Life by Guy Finley
Each day we hear a knock on our psychological door, and when we open it a pushy person enters and begins to bark out orders: “Worry about this.” “Remember and regret that.” “Work harder!”
Omtimes.com
Is it little wonder we experience only the most fleeting feelings of love, kindness or relaxation? Something that calls itself an authority pushes us along all the time. Without ever questioning, we accept it as one. A voice comes in and orders us to become negative. We obey without even being aware of the voice. We think that we ourselves are responsible for that reaction, and that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good reason for it. Conditioning leads us to accept these sad, selfdestructive states as natural. At the same time, another part of us hates our darkened state and thinks that this hatred is natural. However, a more informed view reveals to us that neither a) the negative state, nor b) the hatred of the state is
natural, and we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to put up with either any longer. Our new and higher self-understanding makes it possible for us to regain command over our lives, so we need never have to obey those dark inner voices again. The time has come to take back our lives. If we fail to do so, all we have to look forward to is hearing a new knock on our inner door again and again, and then finding ourselves admitting an unconscious, unhappy force that tells us what to do. Yes, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true that sometimes this uninvited visitor brings a cake (a happy thought), and we feel temporarily content. But for every cake it brings, it whispers ten painful suggestions. We can begin to recognize that these inner voices are false authorities, and instead of inventing ways
Omtimes.com
with which to tolerate them, we can challenge their right to exist altogether. It is not possible for two authorities to rule. When we challenge and reveal for ourselves the false authority, we make an opening for the true one to take its rightful place. We can break the control of these inner voices with their false authority. When we begin to feel the approach of a negative state, we can boldly challenge it by coming wide-awake and inwardly asking, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is your authority based on?â&#x20AC;? Our ability to consciously question these inner intruders is enhanced as we clarify our intention in life. Our new and higher purpose to break free leads us always to choose the high ground, and from that higher vantage point, we can see the approach of any
Omtimes.com
negative state before it takes us over. With experience, we become more adept at recognizing the conditions that tend to give rise to these pained states. Because we know they have no real existence in themselves, and will pass if we do not feed them our own energy, freedom is always within our reach. What a new way to look at life! Until now, no one ever told us that our mental and emotional suffering had no right to have authority over us. In fact, we were told, or shown, just the opposite. Now, with our redefined purpose, we no longer see the value in a life that can be disrupted at any moment by a negative state that comes in and tells us how we must feel. We realize itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to take to the high ground within.
A true authority lives inside each of us that would no more submit to a false state than any creature would voluntarily jump off a cliff into a treacherous ravine. We can invoke that true authority by making it our purpose to release its power into our lives. Be assured that everything we do to free ourselves and discover who we really are produces a positive result. This is the same as saying that our sincere attempts to liberate ourselves must succeed! Each time we choose in favor of our higher purpose, we redefine our position. We see life in a new way. Each bit of new knowledge increases our strength to take our lives back. Every day provides another opportunity for us to reach a new understanding. Just because something
is pervasive does not necessarily make it powerful. Now we see that our wrong assumptions and demands kept us in a position where suffering seemed natural. Our new position shows us that none of that was real. We can challenge the authority of the false to take us over. We can say to it, “I don’t want to live with you anymore.” And, remarkably, everything will change.

How Whole Brain Thinking Can Save the Future by James Olson
omtimes.com
January C 2017 Edition
In our quest for peace, we face a number of obstacles. Not least among these is religion, which ought to be a primary force—perhaps the primary force—for peace in the world, but isn’t. “There can be no world peace until the great religions make peace with one another,” Nobel Peace Prize winner Mairead Corrigan Maguire advises. Why are religions, which teach love and peace, often adversarial? My research shows that most of our conflict, religious behavior included, originates with the lateral split of the brain into two hemispheres, each with its own specialized operating system. The two systems are radically different in how they affect our consciousness. These differences are the primary source of our conflict. Our job then, is to take the two diverse sources of information constantly streaming into our consciousness/mind and shape them into a unified consciousness according to our will. This is our most fundamental act of creation. The choices we make from the two offerings existentially reflect who we are. omtimes.com January C 2017 Edition
The problem with religion is that it is overwhelming managed by men. The operating system of the left hemisphere that guides the thinking and actions of most men tends to be separation-oriented rather than unification-oriented, selfish rather than sharing, competitive rather than cooperative, and prone to the use of force to obtain its goals. Since the upper echelon of religious leadership in the three monotheistic religions of the Middle East—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam—tend to be exclusively male with some exceptions, this means that these religions are led by individuals who mentally, as a whole, are poorly equipped to share, poorly equipped to cooperate, and poorly equipped to maintain peace. All of this is only made worse by the fact that the three have mostly, and in some cases completely, excluded holistic females from leadership roles, including scriptural interpretation. This exclusion of women at the cultural level of religion creates a system of religious governance with a near-total reliance on one half of the brain and an almost omtimes.com
complete blindness to the other. Though religions urge us to live in peace, when people have lost touch with their peace, their religious expression can turn violent. And keep in mind that violence is a variable. At the lower end of the scale, violence can be subtle, a recognition that helped spawn the concept of micro aggressions. How we can create an environment of peace in ourselves and in the world in this time of unprecedented global dangers and insanity— an environment that enhances and enables our best and most creative attributes? We must find peace within ourselves. But to achieve inner peace—and to create conditions for outer peace—requires more than that we desire it. It requires more than mere meditation or visualization or positive thoughts. It requires more than electing public officials who will work toward peaceful relations with other countries or with the diverse elements of our own society. And it even requires more than efforts to be fair and peaceful in our relations with others. All of these things are important, even essential, but January C 2017 Edition
they do not address a critical component. To achieve peace we must harmonize the two specialized information management systems (brain hemispheres) that feed our mind. You will know that you have accomplished this when you cease to see dualities such as liberal and conservative in an adversarial relationship, and instead see them as viewpoints and responses that complement one another, and thus function as two parts of a whole. Perhaps the easiest way to do this would be to come to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each hemisphere’s informationmanagement system. For example, were we to consider the brain characteristics of women and use that knowledge to the greater advantage of culture—we might choose to see that women were allowed to direct all religions at the highest levels. The process of peace starts with us, with our peaceful choices. Only then are we ready to reach out. The violent world around us might be in far greater need of peace than omtimes.com
we are, but if we don’t know how to achieve peace, it will be difficult for us to lead others to find it

The Forthcoming Golden Age by Marguerite dar Boggia
So Many Questions About the Golden Age David Wilcock, in his book The Source Field Investigations,(1) refers to the period of the start of the Golden Age, (aka Krita or Satya age), on page 111, as follows:
Omtimes.com
â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we go back to our excerpt from the Mahabharata in The Secret Doctrine, we come across a tantalizing clue: The ancient Hindu scriptures gave us a precise time window for when the Golden Age would arrive. They associated this with a rare
conjunction of planets in the solar system, thus allowing us to calculate an exact date. “As it is said, “When the sun and moon and the lunar asterism Tishya and the planet Jupiter are in one mansion, the Krita (or Satya) age shall return. “No calculation is presented in Blavatsky’s book for when this may occur, but Geoff Stray presents an informed opinion in his book, Beyond 2012: “In “The Way to Shambhala”, {Edwin} Bernbaum says that the golden age will come when the Sun, Moon and Jupiter all meet in the same quadrant as the Tishya constellation (which is part of Cancer). The next time this happens will be on July 26, 2014, according to my astronomical software (Cyber-Sky).”(2)
Problems with Determining the Start Date On July 26, 2014, Jupiter is NOT in the sign of Cancer. It is in the sign of Leo. Jupiter is in Cancer every twelve years. Examining the Ephemeris, I find that a more
correct date is Sunday, July 12, 2037 at 9:00 PM. In the Hindu prophecy, the Golden Age will start to restore the balance of nature, where there will be no starvation and injustice. Then the Messiah, who they call the “Kalki” and who the Christians call “the Christ,” will be recognized by humanity as the “World Teacher.” The fact is that the Messiah is already here. He came earlier than expected because of the suffering of the ‘little ones.’ It is the Global Elite,(3) who control the world through a directorate of their corporations, who make the decisions. They insist on retaining their rigged economic system where the rich become richer, and countries can be emasculated and crucified as was done to “Greece.” They know that the World Teacher is here now, but they will not allow their media to proclaim it, because they would lose their power.
The World Teacher and
Omtimes.com
Ancient Masters On page 211 of A Treatise on Cosmic Fire, under footnote... the World Teacher,(4) it says the following: “The Buddha held office prior to the present World Teacher, and upon his illumination, the Lord Maitreya, took his place. The occidentals call him the Christ.” This book was written in 1925 by the Ascended Tibetan Master, Djwal Kuhl, through his amanuensis, Alice A. Bailey, through mental telepathy. (Maitreya is His personal name, as known by the Buddhists). Edgar Cayce forecast that the Christ would return in 1998.(4a) In June 1988, the Lord Maitreya suddenly appeared before 6,000 people at a healing gathering in Nairobi, Kenya. He spoke in Swahili for 17 minutes and then disappeared. The editor of the newspaper was present and took pictures of Him.(5) This is one of the pictures: A Master of His stature has immense powers. He created his own body, which is not a real body. It is called a ‘mayavirupa.’ Bullets can do Him no harm. He can change His appearance to a

child, a woman, or whatever.
Sai Baba, the Cosmic Avatar Sathya Sai Baba of India was a cosmic avatar. He had millions of devotees around the world. In February, 1990, a party of American scientists, including a top nuclear physicist from Harvard University visited Him in India. They said, “Since you are called a divine being, make a rainbow in the sky. If you can do this, we will be convinced.” Sai Baba smiled, bent his head for a minute, then said: “Look up.” They saw a rainbow. This occurred before thousands of Sai Baba’s followers, humbling the scientists. They are ready to talk about the truth they found; but the question remains: why do these things that Baba does, not receive coverage in the media elsewhere in the world? The answer is that people motivated by market forces control the media.(6) While David Wilcock is correct, in that we will have a Golden Age, his timing is wrong. How can there be a Golden Age starting in 2014, without repealing the Federal Reserve System? Not
all the public know that the Federal Reserve is not federal at all. It is a consortium of twelve private banks(7) beholden to their shareholders. It means that corruption is thriving in the political and economic spheres.
The Esoteric Word on the Golden Age Esoteric Psychology I was written in 1936 by the Tibetan Master through Alice A. Bailey. On pages 123 and 124, it says: “When He Whom both angels and men await, will approach near unto this physical plane, He will bring with Him not only some of the Great Ones and the Masters, but some of the Devas (Angels) who stand to the deva evolution as the Masters to the human. Forget not that the human evolution is but one of many, and that this is a period of crisis among the devas likewise. The call has gone forth for them to approach humanity, and with their heightened vibration and superior knowledge, unite their forces with those of humanity, for the progression of the two evolutions. They have much to impart anent color and sound, and their effect upon the etheric bodies of men and animals.
...physical ills will be nullified.... “They will also teach men how rightly to nourish the body and to draw from the surrounding ethers the requisite food.”(8) When the world recognizes the Lord Maitreya as the World Teacher, we cannot imagine the vibrational effect of all the Masters and their disciples and initiates living with us again on Earth. It is the equivalent of the Kingdom of God on Earth. Before this can happen, there will be a ‘Day of Declaration,’ when Maitreya will appear on the radio and television networks of the world linked by satellite.
Maitreya, the World Teacher of the Golden Age On that day, Maitreya will mentally overshadow the whole of humanity simultaneously. All will hear his words inwardly in their own language. This telepathic communication will reach everyone, not only those watching or listening. Hundreds of thousands of miraculous healings will take place throughout the World. On that day, there will be no doubt that Omtimes.com
Maitreya is the Christ of the Christians, the Messiah of the Jews, the Imam Mahdi of the Moslems, Maitreya Buddha of the Buddhists, Kalki Avatar of the Hindus, and the Head of the Spiritual Hierarchy of our planet holding the position of the World Teacher. Then, His open worldwide mission will have begun.(9) The chart for July 12, 2037 at 9 p.m. is most interesting because the planet Jupiter is exalted in the sign of Cancer. It is the esoteric ruler of Aquarius. It conjoins, not only the Moon and Sun, but also Uranus, the bringer of change and the exoteric ruler of Aquarius, the sign for the New Age. The stellium of planets is posited in the house of children, which seems fitting, since we are the ‘little ones.’ The sign of Aquarius is that of the World Server. It is the transmitter of energy which evokes response. Jupiter and Uranus, planets of beneficent consummation, are in the fullest eventual cooperation to bring about the fusion of spirit and matter “to the ultimate glory” of the Lord of the solar system.(10)
Omtimes.com
Astro Signs in the Cosmos will Align The sign of Pisces is the rising sign, which also seems fitting. It is the sign of spiritual aspiration and service. Neptune and Jupiter its rulers, are in a favorable aspect to it. Mars conjoining Neptune, as an aspect, signifies “the world savior”, which the World Teacher is. There are other aspects that signify the opposition of those, who control the economies and those who are swayed by their emotions, especially influenced by Moslem clerics and fundamentalist preachers. But the Divine Plan will be implemented and a new, different, economic system will be substituted for the old one. The younger generations will support the new changes for world prosperity, health, and free education. We will develop free energy, prohibited by the U.S. Government,(11) to replace oil, gas, coal, and the nuclear industry. All countries will share the new technologies. Eventually, there will be one world government (The New World Order), but it will not
be under the supervision of the Global Elite. It will be voluntary, under the leadership of the disciples of the Masters who work for the benefit of humanity.

Does your brain manage you… or do you manage your brain?
How Whole Brain Thinking Can Save the Future, written by James Olson, is a practical inquiry into the “operating systems” of the left and right brain hemispheres and their surprising influence over lifestyle, politics, business, religion, and sexual orientation. If we are to better understand and manage our lifestyle, our culture, its politics, and our relationship with the opposite sex, rather than let the brain’s inherited tendencies manage us, it is vital we appreciate the interaction of our brain’s two hemispheres. Olson shows that this is possible, through what he calls "conscious creative mind management"- cognitive control of perspective through attention— so we can become effective managers. Olson’s treatment of the subject is integrative and pragmatic. After developing a rich conceptual toolbox in the first half of the book, he then turns to more practical and often provocative matters in the second half: covering the drug war, the military-industrialcongressional complex, and religious leadership - even abortion. As he investigates the effects of the brain’s operating systems on personal and cultural relationships, Olson highlights the often-tragic distortions that can result from the simple lack of harmony between the hemispheres, and explains how to minimize them. Olson also pursues a special focus on understanding how each side of the brain acts to inform consciousness and guide our behavior, including its profound effect on gender and sexual orientation. He demonstrates how our dominant hemisphere plays a much larger role in determining sexual preferences than we have previously explored, noting that various cultures are well ahead of us in recognizing the correlation between sexuality and gender based on brain hemisphere dominance.

Empower Girls Break the Cycle of Dependence
The number one reason girls drop out of school in Sub-Saharan Africa is lack of access to feminine hygiene products. The Pads for Schoolgirls Project, an outreach of Humanity Healing International, is changing this paradigm by setting up sewing programs at schools, teaching girls a vocational skill, while producing the reusable pads that help keep them attending classes. The girls pay it forward by making and giving pad kits to other girls in need. To learn more, visit humanityhealing.org
