Superfoods - Wheatgrass
Ever wondered why cows grow so big on a grass-only diet? Then try wheatgrass
juice. Just one kilo of fresh wheat grass has the nutritional value of nearly
25 kilos of vegetables. It has has the power to help purify your blood,
detoxify your liver, normalise thyroid functioning and cleanse your colon. Top
athletes take it to boost performance. Normally sold in one or two ounce shots in
juice bars - it has a powerful taste and fantastic iridescent green lustre.
You can grow your own and juice it yourself either with a manual or electrical
juicer.
Our extended mind
Our psychic power extends as far as we can see - to the stars and beyond.
According to biologist Dr Rupert Sheldrake we all have ‘extended minds’ which
connect us together in a telepathic universe. Sheldrake suggests an easy test of
his psi-power theory: You start by staring at the back of a friend’s neck or
by looking away. Do this at random over ten 10-second periods. Make a note of
your actions. Meanwhile, your friend has to record whether they thought they
were being stared at or not. Over 100,000 such trials, conducted in laboratry
conditions, have overwhelmingly proved our sensitivity to being
stared at.

Hi-fi healing
“Your own inner sound system - your ears, voice and choice of music or
self-generated sounds - is the most powerful healing medium available.” - Sound
healing pioneer, Don Campbell, who used chanting and visualisation to shrink a
life-threatening blood-clot in his own brain.
Music can stimulate unborn children, motivate and energise business people,
heighten our consciousness and improve our ability to cope with a wide variety
of diseases and conditions: including cerebral palsy, depression, diabetes,
epilepsy, grief, heart disease, hypertension and the menopause. Campbell rates
Mozart the most therapeutic of all composers: “The key to his greatness is that
it all sounds so pure and simple.”
