"Magic is what happens when you have encountered the Divine. It is the life-altering experience of connecting to the divinity that dwells within yourself and in the world. --Phyllis Curott

Symptoms of Inner Peace
-Dr. Jeff Rockwell
A tendency to think and act spontaneously rather than from fears based on past experiences
An unmistakable ability to enjoy each moment
A loss of interest in judging self
A loss of interest in judging others
A loss of interest in conflict
A loss of interest in interpreting the actions of others
A loss of ability to worry (this is a very serious symptom)
Frequent, overwhelming episodes of appreciation
Contented feelings of connectedness with others and nature
Frequent attacks of smiling through the eyes of the heart
Increasing susceptibility to love extended by others as well as the uncontrollable urge to extend it

The Terma Collective "The Box: Remembering the Gift"
what in your life is calling you?
when all the noise is silenced,
the meetings adjourned,
the lists laid aside,
and the wild iris blooms by itself in the dark forest,
what still pulls on your soul?
in the silence between your heartbeats hides a summons.
do you hear it?
name it, if you must,
or leave it nameless,
but why pretend it is not there?

All the Hemispheres
Leave the familiar for a while.
Let your senses and bodies stretch out
Like a welcomed season
Onto the meadow and shores and hills.
Open up to the Roof.
Make a new watermark on your excitement
And love.
Like a blooming night flower,
Bestow your vital fragrance of happiness
And giving
Upon our intimate assembly.
Change rooms in your mind for a day.
All the hemispheres in existence
Lie beside an equator
In your heart.
Greet Yourself
In your thousand other forms
As you mount the hidden tide and travel
Back home.
All the hemispheres in heaven
Are sitting around a fire
Chatting
While stitching themselves together
Into the Great Circle inside of
You.
From: 'The Subject Tonight is Love'

I was reading some older BodyTalk newsletters and found this interesting post on how the pharmaceutical companies market their new products. Check out the article~
HOW TO BRAND A DISEASE - AND SELL A CURE
Article by Dr. Carl Elliott M.D, CNN.com
An interesting article covering PR branding of pharmaceuticals that treat a range of diseases such as “social anxiety disorder,” a condition previously known as “shyness”, or “urge incontinence” which many patients refer to as “accidentally peeing in my pants”.
….pharmaceutical marketers now sell drugs by selling the diseases that they treat. The buzzword is “disease branding.”
To brand a disease is to shape its public perception in order to make it more palatable to potential patients. Panic disorder, reflux disease, erectile dysfunction, restless legs syndrome, bipolar disorder, overactive bladder, ADHD, premenstrual dysphoric disorder, even clinical depression: All these conditions were once regarded as rare until a marketing campaign transformed the brand.
Once a branded disease has achieved a degree of cultural legitimacy, there is no need to convince anyone that a drug to treat it is necessary. It will come to him as his own idea.
