Kirtana
Kirtana began playing guitar and writing songs at the age of 11. On a spiritual path from a young age, Kirtana's music reflects her own personal journey and spiritual evolution as she has shifted from transformation and healing, to concern for the planet, to the necessity for awakening to your true nature.
Leigh Arnold
Born with Aspergers, Leigh Arnold's art depicts a different view of the world ... In some of my paintings which warp, or might look as though they do, I'm trying to show the space-time curve of the things that people don't see, or shows the mathematics of these things.

Germany's bituminous coal mines are soon to lose their subsidies. But one Ruhr Valley company is looking to transform its mines into sources of renewable energy. Along the way, they could solve one of Germany's largest challenges as it attempts to switch over to green energy.
Our cravings for fat, salt, and sugar started back when humans lived in caves and hunted and gathered for their food. Fat, salt, and sugar were in short supply, so to ensure that we ate adequate supplies of each, we evolved a craving for them.
More Power to the Cranberry: Study Shows the Juice is better than extracts at fighting bacterial infections
Saffron ingredient shows promise for fighting MS
Cranberry juice still remains the most effective way to fight a urinary tract infection. With scientific evidence now supporting the age-old wisdom that cranberries, whether in sauce or as juice, prevent UTIs, people have wondered if there was an element of the berry that, if extracted and condensed, perhaps in pill form, would be as effective as drinking the juice or eating cranberry sauce. A new study from researchers at Worcester Polytechnic Institute helps to answer that question.
Researchers say although there is still much to learn, the discovery of saffron for new treatments for multiple sclerosis (MS) could also pave the way for other neurological disorders. The ingredient was studied in lab models and cell cultures by medical researchers at the University of Alberta. The team found…the “compound in saffron, known as crocin …exerts a protective effect in brain cell cultures and other models of MS.”.

Plastic
– a resource that is grossly undervalued
Life is Easy
In this video you will watch a man from Japan who has invented a machine that can convert plastic into oil. “The other day I saw an empty drink bottle standing on the beach. At high tide it would be embarking on a long sea journey, and probably end up breaking up and being mistaken for food by some sea creature. The person who left it standing there is actually supporting species extinction! Plastic waste can either be deadly or useful. We need to value it with an attractive price per kilo and reuse it. As with bottles and aluminium cans, as soon as we choose to see it as valuable, the environment will be free of much of it.” Text contributed by Veda Turner
"Life is easy" says Jon Jandai. "Why do we have to make it so difficult?" After pursuing "success" in Bangkok for several years, Jo dropped out of university to return to village life. There, he went back to the life he knew as a child, working 2 months of the year to grow rice (with an additional 15 minutes a day to grow vegetables), dug a couple of fish ponds, built his own homes using earthen bricks, and gave up buying clothes (he has so many clothes from friends and visitors that he has to give them away). Jo contends that to be happy, we cannot just rely on money; we have to reconnect with each other.
Comment from Julie, who purchased Issue 37 as an E-Book
Wow what a great edition number 37 is. There are so many interesting articles and some fantastic information that is so relevant to me at this point in my life. I knew there was a reason why I could not wait for the hardcopy of the magazine, besides being just a little impatient. Love the magazine. Thank you.
