Kelly Turner, PhD, Guest Writer Waking Times We’ve all heard a story like this one. After trying all that Western medicine has to offer, a person with Stage 4 cancer is told there is nothing more the doctors can do and is sent home to receive hospice care. Five years later, that person strolls into …
Linda George, Contributing Writer Waking Times My other half tells me I spend far too much time reading, thinking, worrying, about the state of the world and the insanity that goes on. He says I should, rather, focus on my ‘circle of influence’ – by which he means my friends, family and local community and …
Dylan Charles, Editor Waking Times The long anticipated and prophesized year, 2012, has come and gone, yet, the problems and challenges facing mankind and planet earth remain. Those who have put stock in the idea of conscious evolution are now faced with the burden of proof: is there any legitimacy to this idea of a …
Belsebuub, Guest Writer Waking Times You should be active in your spiritual life. You’re never going to discover why you exist, and what the purpose of your life is, if you don’t do something about it. Do you want to live your life superficially, or do you want to have a genuinely spiritual life? Reading, …
Linda George, Contributing Writer Waking Times I don’t know about you, but it feels to me as if January is slipping away, already way too fast. Days of delicious, lazy summer relaxation (here in the Southern hemisphere) feel so good, and are doubly precious – given the speed with which they are passing. Half way …
Stuart Wilde Waking Times When people talk about a paradigm shift, they mean a shift in the recognized pattern of things, which we can say is the ‘standard model’ that forms the basis of people’s comprehension and understanding. We are in the process of mankind’s biggest consciousness shift in history. The reason being, as I …
Barry Cottrell, Guest Writer Waking Times As long as we profess ignorance about our own creature manifestation and do not develop our energetic potentialities, we forget the crux of our astonishing existence. Many people live today with a strong, growing sense of expectation, often laced with apprehension, as if some radical and rapid process of …
Mike Adams, Divinity Now Waking Times The ultimate goal of the study of physics is to decode the rules and laws of the universe; to understand what “makes it all tick,” so to speak. That goal, of course, has remained elusive, but great strides have been made toward it over the last few thousand years. …
Belsebuub, Guest Writer Waking Times The largest study in the world on NDEs to date is currently underway. It is a three year study, with one year to go. It’s taking place in the UK and US, and is studying cardiac arrest patients to see if those who are clinically dead can have out-of-body experiences. …
Julian Rose, Contributing Writer Waking Times The Christ consciousness with which humanity is endowed, and which took physical form in Jesus Christ some 2,000 years ago, is a revolutionary gift. It has the power to transform, to heal and to penetrate the darkness with light. However, it is a gift which still remains largely sealed …
Rene’ Descartes, Contributing Writer Waking Times I am human. If you “sense” that big changes are coming, you’re right. And consider this: You can physically prepare until you think you are nearly invincible, but you can lose it all in an instant. Social, political, or natural forces could disrupt or wipe out your preparations. Even …
David James Lees, Guest Writer Waking Times In my last Wu Wei Wisdom workshop at Peak House Practice I shared with my students the concept of the ‘power of three’, which is the most fundamental Taoist teaching I received from my Master in China and which is as relevant today in the West as it was in …
Richard Smoley, New Dawn Waking Times Prophecy is always to be taken seriously. But that does not mean that it is always to be believed. In fact prophecy as a whole has a rather dismal record for foretelling the future. The apocalyptic predictions of Judaism and Christianity have constantly been disappointed. The predictions of Nostradamus, …
Pao L. Chang, Guest Writer Waking Times Reality is something that we experience everyday, yet most of us have little clue of what it really is.

Editor, Prevent Disease Waking Times To address the media hype around Dec 21, 2012, it will be important for us to hold a positive energy and convey an optimistic message. We really don’t need to repeat the fear that Y2K created. To that end, we would like to emphasize that there is a shift occurring, …
Linda George, Contributing Writer Waking Times What is a symbol? Something that represents something else – in essence. The word symbolic is defined as : “The practice of representing things by means of symbols or of attributing symbolic meanings or significance to objects, events or relationships. ” Yes okay, but we know there is more to …
Chris Bourne, Openhand Contributor Waking Times Much has been written in recent times – especially through 2012 – about our planetary “Ascension”. What exactly does the term mean? What is going on? To me it is an entirely natural evolutionary flow of the universe which although can be explained in scientific terms, can only really be …
Tracy Kolenchuk, Guest Writer Waking Times Our medical system is less comfortable and less effective as studies and results move from the body to the mind, from the mind to the spirit, and from the spirit to the community. Each of the top layers of the hierarchy of healthiness is studied with fear rather than with respect by …
