Have you ever wished you could remember your dreams more vividly? Or have you ever wanted to record your dreams and watch them later like a TV program or a great movie?

I don’t know about you, but this is always something I have wanted to do! And now researchers have found a way to translate our every thought and dream into a video that can be watched later.

This innovative device utilizes existing technologies like Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and supercomputers to make a video of what a person is thinking about through computational models.

The first ever study in the United States was conducted at Brown University in 2011 and in it, three people were asked to wear an EEG device while they slept. They were then woken up in the height of dream activity and asked what they were dreaming about. The device cataloged all of the brain images and stored them.

The scientists repeated this process 200 hundred times for each person and made a database of all of the images. Once they were awake, the scientists showed them the images and scanned their brains again based on their responses.

The people in the study were then asked to sleep again, and the brain scanners went to work. What happened next was revolutionary, the device was able to predict what the person was dreaming about! Continue reading →

3 Crucial Steps to Letting Go of An Emotional Attachment

October 17, 2015 LJ Vanier Leave a comment

“Unexpressed emotion will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways. ~Sigmund Freud~

When I decided to write about this topic I was conflicted because it was through my own emotional turmoil and trauma that I experienced spiritual awakening.

Taking my heart past the limit, I was so immersed in my emotional body that my heart couldn’t handle it. The pain and the inner turmoil were so intense that it felt like my chest was being ripped apart and it was on that day when I fell to my knees and surrendered to my pain, that I experienced spiritual awakening and enlightenment.

And so, I was conflicted, as I am living proof that if you take your heart to the limit and let it be your guide among st the trials and tribulations of the world, it will lead to you to the path you ultimately seek.

But then I realized, upon exploring the subject of emotional addiction, that no one should need to take the path, as I did. And that conscious evolution, and enlightenment will come much easier if we all had the proper teachings and tools.

And so, here are 3 Steps to Healing Emotional Addictions and Why it is So Important.

1. Do Away With Distractions

The television, the radio, the magazines and the social media sites (that aren’t teaching you anything). They are an emotional addiction and are there to keep your mind immersed in your body. These outlets want you to continue the cycle of thinking a certain way, causing you to feel a certain way, strung out in a feedback loop of negativity.

Think about your favorite song and how it makes you feel. Each song sparks an emotion within you, this emotion is triggered by a memory, the memory produces a thought and the thought generates a feeling. This all is the grand illusion that keeps you from the realization that you are a conscious creator. It keeps your mind immersed in your body of thinking and feeling and the cycle continues. This is the prime purpose of media. In fact, it is the number one sales strategy.

The more you engage in this cycle, the longer it will take to overcome your own emotional addiction to the pain and suffering in which you are experiencing. Continue reading →

5 Ways To Understand Why Everything Happens For a Reason

October 17, 2015 LJ Vanier 5 Comments

“I trust that everything happens for a reason, even if we are not wise enough to see it. When there is no struggle, there is no strength.” Oprah Winfrey

The well-known Greek Philosopher Aristotle, believed that everything happens for a reason, always. And that every experience in your life, was designed to shape you and reform you into the ultimate and greatest version, that could ever imagine yourself to be. The only thing that prevents this, is having the wisdom to see it.

1. In Times of Struggle

Every negative experience; every time of struggle, can then be viewed as an opportunity for tremendous growth. Alike to a caterpillar burrowing from its chrysalis. When all of its forming and changing is complete, its metamorphism has transformed it into a magnificent butterfly. It has shed its former skin, and flown on the wings of new life and a new way of being.

2. In Times of Healing

Some may find it hard to believe that everything happens for a reason, especially when experiencing grief or loss. At the time it may be very difficult to see the blessing in it, as all that is being felt is pain. But it is through our lowest points in life, where we gain the wisdom and allow for new-found strength to emerge. Without loss we wouldn’t appreciate gain, without grief we wouldn’t appreciate love. Without death, we wouldn’t appreciate life and without fear, we wouldn’t appreciate love.

3. In Times of Happiness

By far, the most victorious of all happen stances, when it all comes together in one moment, the AHA moment, as the metaphorical photo finally develops. When we reach the point, after all of the struggles, the self-substantiating realization beams through and we finally see the wisdom behind the subconscious choices we’ve made. Clarity shines through like the morning sun peeking out on the earths horizon. Continue reading →

For The Last Time: Telepathy is Real, Here’s the Groundbreaking Research

October 17, 2015 LJ Vanier 1 Comment

To possess the ability to communicate with people without using any medium is a fascinating subject for many. Known as a superpower, telepathy stands right up there with x-ray vision, telekinesis and time freezing, as something people would love to have!

The great news is that recent research is removing the fictional nature of telepathy. Many scientists now don’t regard it as science fiction but closer to actual science that presents a ripe area for research.

Recently, a group a researchers successfully completed a telepathic transmission from one persons mind to another, half way across the world!

The Experiment

Star Labs in Barcelona used sophisticated non-invasive equipment to send a message from a mind in India, all the way to France! The setup involved the sender wearing an electroencephalography (EEG) cap which captured the electrical signals in their cortex.

The focus was on motor transmissions, as this architecture is similar across all human brains. So, the sender was asked to think about moving his hands or feet. Once these signals were captured by the EEG cap, they were sent over to a computer that transcoded it into binary data (0s and 1s) and transmitted it over the internet to another computer situated next to the recipient.

What is The Real Purpose of A Twin Flame Relationship?

October 13, 2015 LJ Vanier Leave a comment

A twin flame union, is a connection that is established on a higher level. Two souls enmeshed together, becoming the full embodiment of universal love, a universal consciousness. This spiritual bond is formed between two people energetically, through a kind of quantum entanglement and once formed, is unbreakable.

Upon the initial meeting, it will feel like a shooting star, screaming at the speed of light through your chakras. You quite literally feel as though your heart will explode with love and affection for this person. Overwhelming to say the least, and you can’t seem to get a grasp on yourself. You’ve lost all rational thought, as well as the ability to make sound decisions.

A feeling of familiarity is immediately apparent upon meeting your twin, as if looking at yourself in a mirror and seeing your own soul.

Once the union is formed it is explosive, accelerating each others DNA– your DNA, catapulting the pair onto the path of ascension. The energies are resonating so high into euphoric bliss that you feel as though you can fly through the universe, without wings. A true taste of heaven on earth, not like anything you have experienced in your entire life. The mind cannot keep hold on the experience “It couldn’t be real, this must not be real” you think to yourself. Continue reading →

This half man, half mountain known to the locals in Villa di Pratolino, Tuscany as ‘Appennino’ stands over 35 feet tall and holds a wonderful secret. The colossus sculpture was erected in the late 1500’s by the renowned Italian sculptor Giambologna, who designed the mountain God to house several hidden rooms that serve many different functions. It is said that his left hand holds flowing water from an underground stream and is rumoured that there is a space inside of his head that was made for a fireplace. When the fireplace is lit, smoke bellows from his nostrils!

This miniature model reveals the rooms inside of the colossus. Continue reading →
