Hi, glad to be starting this conversation and I hope some of you jump right in with your thoughts.  I'm reasonably new to this site and so glad I found like-minded people to share with :-) I chose this group because the 'law of attraction' or similarly,'cause and effect' is something that I... read more...

10 Reasons Thunderstorms Are So Scary to Kids

Thunderstorms can be scary and fun at the same time. Living in a canyon allows us to experience very loud storms as they roll through, quite often in the middle of the night. 

"I personally love the energy that comes with storms and find myself in a state of gratitude for the rain, the cleansing, and purging that takes place in the area the storm is rolling through." ~ Carol

One thing we've found is children and pets will often react depending on how we react. 

Excitement or fear is contagious. Children and animals will feel/read your energy and react accordingly. Demonstrate how to stay calm and supportive. 

Here are some of the reasons kids are afraid during thunderstorms. 

The Crossroads Of Humanity. By Carol Lawrence

         

Humanity is at a crossroads. An unfolding of many collective layers.

       
           A cross-roads in time that will determine the fate of our species.

We are making choices right now that will determine the path of our collective future. Mother Earth is changing at a rapid rate. As she speeds up, we speed up too. Our pulse rate increases, we might become dizzy or short of breath. We are generating a large amount of heat. There are 7 billion people on planet earth right now. Many souls have chosen to be here at this time to witness and become apart of the change. Our magnetic field is lessening.

In planetary history. When the magnetic fields have lost their magnification the polls have shifted. Are the poles going to shift again. It's quite possible. To learn more about magnetics and the possibility of our poles shifting follow Gregg Braden. He is one of the leaders in this field and comes from a very open minded perspective backing his knowledge with science.

As we are leaving the “iron” age and begin transmuting and changing as we move into the “golden” or “intuition” age things are beginning to look different. Many are at this point now. Many are not. Many will leave. It's ok for each and every one to transition or change as they need to, to be able to fit in with mother's earth new plan. Mother earth is a thinking, living, breathing being. The time of living on such a wonderful being with disconnect is ending.

Humanity as a whole is waking up from a long slumber. The intuition age has arrived.

What are some of the wonderful attributes we have to look forward to in this new age that is dawning on our planet?

• A deepening connection to our planet is unfolding.
• More telepathy. People are going to speak more with their minds. Secrets will not be able to be hidden like they once were due to this enhanced ability by many. Many children arrive with this ability already.
• Leading more intuitive based lives. Does this job feel right for me? Does this way of eating feel right for my body at this time? Does this way of learning benefit my child?
• Parenting takes on a whole new role. Parents are becoming more aware of the intelligence that is right before them and realizing they are also students in life as much as their children. Prioritizing their children, building solid foundations, growing unbreakable connections and living more sustainable lives will become the focus. Life and her wonders become the teacher again.
• A disconnect from consumerism and the need for “stuff” will be replaced with adventure, connections and deeper relationships.
• Sustainable living that is conducive for all not just one. Boundaries are dissolving. It will become more about the we instead of the me. “If I dump this into my landfill or blast it into the air who will be effected by it?”
• The comprehensive realization that the air we breath is shared all around the world will engulf many. What I do matters!
• Doorways to new worlds will open. Manifesting is becoming quicker and easier with more focused thoughts and feelings.
• Life can and will be lived fully with intent by many.

Life as we know it is changing. What kind of life will you be manifesting and co-creating for you, your family, your planet? The choice is yours.

Kathy Parra ~ One Love! The Call of the Dolphins and Whales, inviting all of you to dive in and join in One Love.

Here is a short synopsis of Kathy Parra's upcoming book One Love, surrounding the aspects of dolphins/whales and their presence of healing for us all! Content was given to Kathy by dolphins. 


Kathy is co-creating her new book with Diane Buccheri of OCEAN Magazine.

ONE LOVE
Fascination. Mesmerizing. Captivating. Healing angels of the sea. Joy. Pleasure. Love. All of these words come to mind when we hear dolphin and whale.

Dolphins and whales have sourced us with harmonious energy for centuries. Dolphins and whales alike touch each of us on many levels in some way, whether knowingly or unknowingly. The soul, the core, of our essence has received their image. Our cell memory retains dolphin and whale within each of us as One Love.

Love is the energy of life. Love is the energy of spirit.

We all know this to be the way of truth. Dolphins and whales are asking many of us to come forth with our love and share from our own dolphin or whale within. Share with the masses in communal initiation as we move through the transformation of what lies in our soul, our core, that which is and always has been, one love.

Dolphins and whales continue to guide our lives in bravura through a tangible source, a book titled ONE LOVE.

True Story: 2 Year Old Saves Moms Life!

A really good friend of ours Alley and her two year old daughter Melanie had this amazing experience that happened and we wanted to share it with you.

Alley who is deathly allergic to wasps and bee stings had a very traumatic experience while her two year old daughter Melanie ended up saving her life!

As they pulled up to their home mom got out of the car to get Melanie out of the car seat. As Allie was tending to Melanie a wasp snuck up her pant leg. From the time they walked from the car into their home the wasp stung Allie six times. At this point they are in their home. Alley's throat has swelled up, she's gasping for air and cannot speak. She started pointing to her purse across the room on the couch. Her daughter went over opened the purse and began literally throwing everything out of it. When she got to the epipen. She grabbed it and was walking over to mom who at this point was in serious condition. She handed her mom the epipen. Alley gave herself the shot and it saved her life.

The real kicker of the story is her two year has never seen or heard or was never educated about this epipen. She instinctively and intuitively stopped being a two-year and tuned into the situation and was guided to what needed to be done. This my friends is a true miracle.....spirit in action.

Coopers Pack Children's Travel Guides By Kyle And Groot

Created by Brandon Kyle Rudd.

Review by Stacy Toten and Carol Lawrence

Coopers Pack Children's Travel Guides is one of the best children's travel guides we've ever seen. With so many choices in our world today these books are  definitely worth taking a look at. 

As far as educational books go this is definitely well spent money that your children will benefit from many times over. The simplicity in which these books are designed will draw your child in and open up their imagination. Even if you are a world wide traveler or you've never left your town you can still travel the world with these travel guides. Each page is packed with information from top to bottom. The visuals and intricate details are so realistic, from the maps, to real live pictures of the towns, to the street signs; the details of the buildings, the features of the glaciers, even down to the details on the statue of liberty.

DOLPHIN REIKI

Dolphin Reiki

by Kathy Parra

What is dolphin reiki? How is it shared from you to another? And can anyone perform dolphin reiki? The word reiki, pronounced ray-kee, comes from the Japanese word rei, meaning a higher power, and ki, meaning life force energy. With dolphin reiki, the dolphins are the higher power. Life force energy comes directly from the dolphins. This energy is then administered by a laying on of hands to a specific area, either right above or directly on the area needing healing. Fully clothed, with the exception of shoes, the person may want to lie on a massage table, or sit in a chair, or the practitioner can send dolphin reiki across the waves to someone in need. Just the thought of asking dolphin, by saying, “Dolphin I wish for you to be present with this person during this time,” is enough to move the dolphin reiki nearer to them. When dolphin reiki is administered, it feels like a joyful, playful, peaceful, loving energy as dolphin energy flows through and around. Dolphin reiki assists in healing the whole person including body, mind, spirit, and emotions. Many have reported miraculous healings. A session may last thirty minutes or an hour. I have had sessions as short as fifteen minutes, while others lasted one and a half hours. How many times will it take before feeling dolphin reiki work? Many have miraculous healings instantly, others need a few sessions. Dolphins are master healers. Much like our angels of the sea, they know exactly where we hurt in our body, mind, spirit, and emotions and eagerly assist on our path to healing. Can anybody administer dolphin reiki? Yes! If you are connected to the dolphin energy that resides in all of us which is love, then you can share dolphin reiki. Dolphin reiki is pure love energy. The essence of who we are as individuals is love energy and it is natural and innate for all of us to want to assist ourselves or another human being when in need. When you get a headache or stub your toe, what is the first thing you do? You touch the area. It is our natural reflex to heal, to love that which is in need. Dolphins very much want to assist us in our everyday lives of healing ourselves and earth in times of need. They very much wish joy for us in our everyday living. If you wish to become a practitioner sharing dolphin reiki, many states require a practitioner certificate from a dolphin reiki/energy practitioner.

Review: Love is the Color of a Rainbow By Kathy Parra

Love is the Color of a Rainbow By Kathy Parra

Illustrated by Candace Keach

Love is the Color of a Rainbow is the perfect book to teach your children how to see, touch, feel and smell the world.

This book will entice the children to use their imagination. Love is the Color of a Rainbow is very explicit in it's descriptions, you can almost taste the little vine ripe tomato on your tongue or feel the little snail crawling across your hand.

It's always a thrill to us when an author teaches the children how to connect with nature and the importance of mother earth.

Candace Keach's illustrations go hand in hand with the book. It's a perfect match.

Love is the Color of a Rainbow is an echo friendly book. A portion of the proceeds support nature and environmental organizations.

Author Kathy Parra, or Kap, by her nickname, loves gardening, talking with nature, especially with dolphins, vegan cooking and baking, bike riding, and skipping for joy where she lives in Mesa, Arizona with her partner Tony and their 3 girls Ariana, Chenoa, And Asha.
