The Telepathy Tapes

The Telepathy Tapes Podcast, produced by documentary filmmaker Ky Dickens, covers a very wide range of subject matter in the world of the paranormal, but begins with the newly brought to light and seemingly indisputable telepathic abilties of nonverbal autistic children. The podcast is based on the work of Dr. Diane Hennacy Powell, author, public speaker, researcher and practicing psychiatist, who through her study of autistic savants (and using, from what I can determine, are meticulously designed experiments) is proving the psychic abilities of many of her autistic subjects.
But the podcast doesn't stop here--in addition to first hand conversations with mothers, teachers and the autistic subjects themselves, the podcast also investigates unbelievable startling anecdotes regarding animal whispering intelligence, reincarnation, near death experiences and communication with spirits. What if I told you about a herd of elephants who somehow knew and showed up at the death of the human who provided them with sanctuary even through they were many miles away? Or about an African Gray Parrot who outloud spoke words describing the dream content of its owner in real time? And what if you heard that many autistic children meet and visit with each other telepathically in a nonphysical place called "The Hill." Sounds unbelievable! Even if you're skeptical, I have a feeling you might find this podcast mind opening like I did. To understand this possibility one must view the world around us through a new lens that transcends the current one of scientific materialism, one that proposes that everything around us is imbued with consciousness.
Powell believes that herein just might be the key to understanding human consciousness as it survives independent of our bodies as energy that, by its nature, never dissipates. To say that she defies the current prevailing materialist scientific model is an understatement and for that reason she is controversial. But to her, "the data was so compelling and accurate that I had to follow it even though I thought I was risking my scientific reputation, a risk a scientist takes when they challenge the current paradigm."
YUKA Healthy Food App

Originally launched in France in 2017, the app began as a tool for French shoppers to better understand the health impact of packaged food products while browsing the aisles of a grocery store. repertoire. In addition to food, they now also include cosmetics as part of their repertoire.
This is how it works--you scan a product’s barcode and immediately a score pops up from 1 to 100--the low numbers being a bad choice and 100 being the best healthy options. A score of 75 or higher is deemed excellent and more than 50 is good. The app is free, but you can get advanced services by paying from $10 to $20. Yuka takes no money from sponsors and no one can pay for a score to be altered.
The Power of Good: Sir Nicholas Winton
In light of today's current events, here is a story you won't want to miss. It answers the question of "what can we do? and shows the power of one determined individual who decided to do something.
This individual's name was Nicholas Winton (1909-2015) and this is his powerful story. In 1938 he was just a normal citizen, a young privileged stockbroker who, having heard of the suffering of the Czechoslovakian Jews and others in that country, decided to try and figure out a way to help them. He launched a scheme in which he organized and orchestrated the transport of 660+ children (on seven trains over a period of months) out of Czechoslovakia to safety, to be placed in families in England. In 2013, the full documentary Nicky's Family was released. You can watch it here.
None of these 660+ people (and their children and grandchildren) will ever doubt the power of one individual. Let Sir Nicholas Winton be an inspiration to us all in these extremely turbulent times...

Charity of the Week: Pasadena Humane Society
Anyone who has a pet can see the terror in the eyes of this dog and my heart breaks for all the animals affected by the LA fires. Please consider giving to the Pasadena Humane Society. They have taken in over 400 animals from the Eaton Fire Emergency and are desperately in need of monetary donations to help purchase medical supplies and other resources as they start to see a significant increase in the number of burned and injured animals coming to our shelter.
