<h3 style="text-align: center;">with the Nature-All You!!!</h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">and</h3>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/Front-cvr-Unity-solov2.jpg"><img title="The Unity Codes, solfeggio,Zobet,Phi ratio,Theta,endorphins,sound healing" src="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/Front-cvr-Unity-solov2-1024x1000.jpg" alt="" width="301" height="294" /></a> </span></h2>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Since sound is an amazing tool for helping the body get back in tune on every level, Ashera Hart in collaboration with top NLP coaches, EFT experts and hypnotherapists are together creating sacred sound downloads working with the frequencies of the Zobet (solfeggio) to help you return to a more natural state of being.  Since the frequencies embody the Fibonacci sequence, it can help you reconnect more fully with your body, mind and spirit and also connect you more deeply with nature and your true spiritual self.  These meditation products are ideally played using headphones, although they can also be used through speakers in a group/workshop situation or as a space clearer to start your day on a great vibe!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">These can be used by any age group for a wide variety of reasons so whether you&#8217;re  a busy working professional needing to de-stress, or a spiritual seeker needing to more deeply meditate, or an artistic person who wants to get creative, or someone who wants to get more in tune with themselves or a teenager needing some quality enhanced learning time or perhaps you&#8217;re a lady who&#8217;s pregnant and you need to take some quality time for you, there is something for everyone!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Harmonise your whole being in a  1 hour sound healing journey with the bliss-full crystal clear frequencies of Zobet (solfeggio) tuning forks and gently calming ocean waves to help prepare you for 2012. The Zobet frequencies harness the Universe’s sacred sonic light language and natural Phi ratio (or Fibonacci sequence – the real Da Vinci Code) to harmonise the Phi ratio in your body (bones/DNA etc) to help tune your body’s energy vibration to the Earth’s natural vibrations and help you access your Divine blueprint and feel more peace, fulfillment &amp; unity within. Let your body remember this Divine connection and birthright and so assist you in your ascension process for 2012. 111Hz is also known from research in Russia and is used widely in Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation (CES) and Neuro Electric Therapy (NET) to help release beta-endorphins (good for pain relief) &amp; is known to help stress, depression, addiction, insomnia, etc. 111Hz also takes you into a Theta brainwave state which is great for deep relaxation/meditation, enhanced visualisation/dream recall, problem-solving, creativity, super-learning, reprogramming your mind &amp; much more!! Best listened to on headphones and used once or twice a day for 2-3 weeks to maximise the benefits &amp; thereafter as required. Please read the guidance notes on the inner sleeve before use &amp; drink sufficient water before and after listening. High quality audio .wav or MP3 download available.  The wav file is the highest choice for the best results!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This download is NOW available in either high quality .wav format (recommended) or high quality (192 kbps) MP3 format.  Enjoy!</p>

<h3>Testimonials include:-</h3>
<p><em>“I am glad I followed the instructions about drinking water, as I felt really thirsty both before and after..…. My intuition tells me that this sound healing has been a big part and acceleration of clearing of old wounds and patterns. From the very first session &amp; the first sound of the sea &amp; the tuning forks, I felt resonant with the sound frequencies &#8211; I am very glad to have this extra t</em>ool”- Robert H., UK</p>
<p><em>“The experience that I had with the CD was profound. I felt tingling sensations throughout my body. I would feel relaxed and connected to my body. Listening to the CD for a week straight I noticed my eating habits had changed, my body was asking for more fruits and vegetables, I was drinking more water. I think what worked is listening to the CD for a continuous length of time, like a week or more, because it would build on itself from the days before”</em>– Soleiman B. &#8211; Student, USA</p>
<p><em>&#8220;When I was first fortunate enough to witness Ashera the impact of her work was instantaneous. Witnessing her channelled voice sent a healing resonance that cut through the blockages in my body, going straight to the core of my being. I have since been using the Zobet Codes and feel that it has been instrumental in shifting me into a frequency of harmony, focus and joy.</em>&#8221;<br />
– Adam Shaw,  Walk Innovation, UK <a title="Walk Innovation" href="http://www.walkinnovation.com" target="_blank">www.walkinnovation.com</a></p>
<p>“<em>When Ashera began to apply the use of the frequencies during a group attunement, it was as if my BEing was already familiar with communication through the frequencies. I instantly began to feel myself smiling beyond the smile on my face. There was a sense of &#8216;knowing&#8217; beyond my current intellectual understanding. My energy body enlivened by the sounds to the point of overwhelm, followed by the overpouring of tears cascading in ecstatic bliss. Words cannot encapsulate the experience. If you are feeling drawn to work with Ashera and the frequencies I would recommend that you explore that calling (smile)&#8221;.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Eye_dilate-thumb_180px.gif"><img class="size-full wp-image-2961  aligncenter" title="sound healing,Fibonacci,Phi,528Hz,111Hz,396Hz,Da Vinci Code,2012" src="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Eye_dilate-thumb_180px.gif" alt="" width="180" height="103" /></a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Interesting discovery by Adrian Bejan, professor of mechanical engineering at Duke&#8217;s Pratt School of Engineering.</span></p>
<p>The original link is <a title="Mystery of golden ratio" href="http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2009-12/du-mog121409.php" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I myself would have gone one step further and said that how interesting it is that the body, whose structure is based on the Phi ratio, finds it easiest to take in information more efficiently in that route.  What a great way to get efficient!  Tune in and turn on!!!!  Computers work in a similar way too since all digital file compression uses the Fibonacci sequence/fractal maths/Phi ratio concept to achieve it.  From the atomic to the in-Phi-nite!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">DURHAM, N.C. &#8212; The Egyptians supposedly used it to guide the construction the Pyramids. The architecture of ancient Athens is thought to have been based on it. Fictional Harvard symbologist Robert Langdon tried to unravel its mysteries in the novel The Da Vinci Code.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;It&#8221; is the golden ratio, a geometric proportion that has been theorized to be the most aesthetically pleasing to the eye and has been the root of countless mysteries over the centuries. Now, a Duke University engineer has found it to be a compelling springboard to unify vision, thought and movement under a single law of nature&#8217;s design.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Also know the divine proportion, the golden ratio describes a rectangle with a length 1.618 times its width. Many artists and architects have fashioned their works around this proportion. For example, the Parthenon in Athens and Leonardo da Vinci&#8217;s painting Mona Lisa are commonly cited examples of the ratio.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Fibonacci2.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2955" title="Fibonacci,528Hz,396Hz,111Hz,solfeggio,Zobet,sound healing,2012" src="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Fibonacci2.png" alt="" width="406" height="306" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Adrian Bejan, professor of mechanical engineering at Duke&#8217;s Pratt School of Engineering, thinks he knows why the golden ratio pops up everywhere: the eyes scan an image the fastest when it is shaped as a golden-ratio rectangle.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The natural design that connects vision and cognition is a theory that flowing systems &#8212; from airways in the lungs to the formation of river deltas &#8212; evolve in time so that they flow more and more easily. Bejan termed this the constructal law in 1996, and its latest application appears early online in the International Journal of Design &amp; Nature and Ecodynamics.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;When you look at what so many people have been drawing and building, you see these proportions everywhere,&#8221; Bejan said. &#8220;It is well known that the eyes take in information more efficiently when they scan side-to-side, as opposed to up and down.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Fibonaccishell2.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2957" title="Fibonacci,528Hz,111Hz,396Hz,Da Vinci Code,2012,sound healing,Zobet,solfeggio" src="http://www.asherahart.net/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Fibonaccishell2.png" alt="" width="302" height="412" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bejan argues that the world – whether it is a human looking at a painting or a gazelle on the open plain scanning the horizon – is basically oriented on the horizontal. For the gazelle, danger primarily comes from the sides or from behind, not from above or below, so their scope of vision evolved to go side-to-side. As vision developed, he argues, the animals got &#8220;smarter&#8221; by seeing better and moving faster and more safely.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;As animals developed organs for vision, they minimized the danger from ahead and the sides,&#8221; Bejan said. &#8220;This has made the overall flow of animals on earth safer and more efficient. The flow of animal mass develops for itself flow channels that are efficient and conducive to survival – straighter, with fewer obstacles and predators.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">For Bejan, vision and cognition evolved together and are one and the same design as locomotion.The increased efficiency of information flowing from the world through the eyes to the brain corresponds with the transmission of this information through the branching architecture of nerves and the brain.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;Cognition is the name of the constructal evolution of the brain&#8217;s architecture, every minute and every moment,&#8221; Bejan said. &#8220;This is the phenomenon of thinking, knowing, and then thinking again more efficiently. Getting smarter is the constructal law in action.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">While the golden ratio provided a conceptual entryway into this view of nature&#8217;s design, Bejan sees something even broader.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;It is the oneness of vision, cognition and locomotion as the design of the movement of all animals on earth,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The phenomenon of the golden ratio contributes to this understanding the idea that pattern and diversity coexist as integral and necessary features of the evolutionary design of nature.&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In numerous papers and books over past decade, Bejan has demonstrated that the constructal law (www.constructal.org) predicts a wide range of flow system designs seen in nature, from biology and geophysics to social dynamics and technology evolution.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I really love chocolate and interestingly I&#8217;m just in the process of finishing off my 1st ebook about &#8220;Cutting the Ties&#8221; and thought it a great idea of add in a little treat at the back in suggesting how raw chocolate is really good for you and how it&#8217;s got the bliss molecule Anandamide in it etc etc but more recently there are some people in the raw food movement that are saying that maybe it&#8217;s not quite what the doctor ordered.  What d&#8217;you think?</p>
<p>There&#8217;s quite a lot of information just gone up on the internet about the dangers of cacao and I&#8217;m no scientist but it&#8217;s well known that chocolate is a stimulant because of the caffeine present and there is also the other stimulant theobromine.  This is the toxic chemical that will make most animals avoid it e.g. dogs and cats.  Due to some drying procedures it may also contain the toxic mould aflatoxin.</p>
<p>So is raw cacao a superfood or harmful stimulant? Although some raw food leaders highly promote cacao as something that should be revered as a food of the Gods, others have spoken out against raw cacao and raw chocolate. Who should you believe? Don’t be fooled by all the hype!</p>
<p>“Many people are being misled to believe cacao and other foods are healthy. Many of the people who promote it, have a good heart and really feel it is a good food, but I know there are many who sell this product knowing it is toxic and addictive, just to make money.”</p>
<p>Many raw food leaders including Victoria Boutenko, Dr. Doug Graham, Frederic Patenaude, Paul Nison, Jeremy Safron, Dr. Fred Bisci, and Dr. Brian Clement, have already come to the conclusion that raw cacao is not a superfood but an addictive stimulant. What do they know that you perhaps don’t yet know?</p>
<p>Raw Food/Vegan Chef Frederic Patenaude&#8217;s blog is <a title="Raw Cacao" href="http://www.fredericpatenaude.com/blog/?p=97" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p>There is an interesting page <a title="Raw Cacao" href="http://www.thegardendiet.com/cacao.html" target="_blank">here</a> on The Garden Diet&#8217;s website with a few videos on raw food experts&#8217; opinions on the matter</p>
<p>And an article on the subject on the Living Foods website <a title="Living Foods" href="http://www.living-foods.com/articles/cacao.html" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p>Dr. T has his say <a title="Dr T" href="http://ecopolitan.com/component/finder/search?q=raw+cacao" target="_blank">here</a></p>
<p>and I guess you can go on researching this interesting subject but one thing&#8217;s for sure whether these people are right or not, one thing is for sure, in life &#8220;everything in moderation&#8221; springs to mind and of course too much dehydrated organic food is going to dehydrate you too.  How long did it take people to work that one out!</p>
<p>Raw carob seems to win the day because it doesn&#8217;t have the caffeine but then of course if you&#8217;re a staunch vegan you might be finding it a challenge to find carob brazils (albeit cooked) without crushed beetle shells (shellac) glazing the outside of them!</p>
<p>It&#8217;s good to question everything in our lives to find out what&#8217;s true and ultimately what&#8217;s best for you.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll of course allow you to make up your own mind and add a comment below if you like!</p>
<p>Thanks for stopping by!</p>
