It’s a discipline to honour. Some ancient paths remain unbeaten. Perhaps the wisest act of healing is subtraction: less poison, less pretense. Quit the cigarettes, temper the drink, forgo the chemical crutches, abandon the factory-made food, and question the lifestyle that leaves you ill at ease.

Resources For Life Earth’s Eternal Heartbeat Earth’s heartbeat hums at 7.83 hertz - the Schumann resonance, a low, secret rhythm beneath storms and skin.
