Mental Health

Health

<p>
  <h1>Today's idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. </h1>
For healing is the opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on sickness and on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from others and a shutting off of joining. It becomes a door that closes on a separate self and keeps it isolated and alone.
</p>
<p>Sickness is isolation. For it seems to keep one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation real and keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in pieces by a solid wall of sickened flesh which it can not surmount. The world obeys the laws that sickness serves, but healing operates apart from them.</p>
<p>It is impossible that anyone be healed alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing is his own decision to be one again and to accept his Self with all its parts intact and unassailed. In sickness does his Self appear to be dismembered and without the unity that gives it life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of God's Son.</p>

<h1>Sickness would prove that lies must be the truth. </h1>
<p>But healing demonstrates that truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has never really happened. To be healed is merely to accept what always was the simple truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that what they look upon is false. So healing, never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real.</p>
<p>Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, healing offers restitution for imagined states and false ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the truth.</p>
<p>Yet think not healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is real. The body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be seen and justified and fully understood.</p>

<h1>Just as forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the simple truth. </h1>
<p>When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the laws that hold it cannot but be real, then questions have been answered. And the laws can be no longer cherished nor obeyed.</p>
<p>Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the truth. Healing is shared. And by this attribute, it proves that laws unlike the ones which hold that sickness is inevitable are more potent than their sickly opposites. Healing is strength. For by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off within a body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong.</p>
<p>Healing, forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to hold yourself a prisoner to death.</p>

<h1>His life becomes your own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you pain. </h1>
<p>And as you let yourself be healed, you see all those around you or who cross your mind or whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you healed along with you. Perhaps you will not recognize them all, nor realize how great your offering to all the world when you let healing come to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift which you receive when you are healed.</p>
<p>Those who are healed become the instruments of healing. Nor does time elapse between the instant they are healed and all the grace of healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to truth.</p>
<p>Would you not offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, and can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will never fail. The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they will both occur as one.</p>

<h1>We will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the peace of God. </h1>
<p>Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the gift of everything?</p>
<p>Yet must we be prepared for such a gift. And so we will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude today at night as well:</p>
<p>When I am healed, I am not healed alone.And I would share my healing with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of God's one Son, Who is my only Self.</p>

<p>
  <h1>Let healing be through you this very day. </h1>
And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to make well all that was sick and offer blessing where there was attack. Nor will we let this function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering our function with this thought:
</p>
<p>When I am healed, I am not healed alone.And I would bless my brothers, for I would be healed with them as they are healed with me.</p>

Karekare Beach

<h1><em>'Pterodactyl' </em></h1>
<p><em>This piece was filmed at a really special place, on the west coast of New Zealand called Karekare Beach in the Waitakere ranges. It's one of those magical places with an immensely powerful energy that channels down the windswept valley from the hills to the sea through sandunes and rocky outcrops to meet a churning ocean that has pounded these shores since time immemorial. </em></p>
<p><em>The landscape is rugged and raw and you feel like you've stepped back into prehistoric times where Pterodactyls once roamed the skies.As a young man Karekare was my escape from the city and the pressures of becoming an adult. We surfed there, we spent nights amongst the sand dunes discovering ourselves. The salt and sea air would always send me back to the world refreshed and empowered, reconnected with a vital perspective of my place on this strange rock we call home.</em></p>

<p>
  <h1><em>Location</em></h1>
<em>Karekare is also well known for the opening scene to an incredible film called The Piano by Jane Campion which won a young Anna Paquin an Oscar at 11 years old. Set mid 19tt century the film sees the girl and her mother dumped on the beach from a ship with nothing more than their trunk of belongings and a huge Piano to begin their life in the 'new world'. That opening scene and many elements of that film truly capture that raw nature of the New Zealand west coast and native bush.</em>
</p>

THE PIANO - Official 25th Anniversary Trailer - Directed by Jane Campion

<p>I lived in Edinburgh, Scotland for about 6 years from 1999 and after moving back to New Zealand I often missed living amongst the history of old streets and the stories that came with them (there's some great stories if your into ghosts like me!). </p>
<p>But I then realized that history in New Zealand is also in the land itself… the 'New World' is in fact the 'Untouched World' and the stories are written in the landscape. With some imagination and research you can read between the lines and the ghosts of the past can be seen!</p>

<h1><em>Capture &amp; Edits</em></h1>
<p><em>‘Pterodactyl’ was originally shot a few years ago during a photowalk I hosted for a whole bunch of Auckland photographers. I used to co-ordinate and host official Instagram 'World Wide Insta Meets' (WWIM) after the Instagram team featured my cinemagraphs and interviewed me for their blog back in 2016. </em></p>
<p><em>The original shot for 'Pterodactyl' actually shows a bunch of photographers sitting on top of the hill but coming into the NFT space has liberated me to bring both edits and conceptual elements into my work that I hadn't done before and want to further pursue.</em></p>

<p>Inspired by the prehistoric raw energy of Karekare I edited in a subtle figure of a Pterodactyl perched on the hill along with an old stripped down tree (taken from one of my still photos - which ironically in real life actually sits half way up an Auckland volcano called One Tree Hill). For me the tree suited the scene for a few reasons but mainly because I love the solitary presence of a tree that remains on a rocky outcrop… a survivor against the elements.</p>

<h1>My understanding that I know nothing is how I got to experience some of the most exciting times in my life</h1>

<h1>Funny enough, my curiosity in how people work or how they got to where they are has led me to spend time picking the minds of artists, philosophers, psychologists, musicians, etc</h1>
<h1></h1>
<h1>One of my favourite storytelling experiences was when I time traveled while filming an Art Documentary in New York City with Pope of Art - Steve Cannon. Steve took me through time and space, visiting the 40’s ,50’s, The Beatles, Andy Warhol, Basquiat, Keith Haring ....</h1>

<h1>Steve became blind later in his life but we all agreed that he was able to see more than most of us. </h1>

New Zealand

<h1>Background</h1>
<p>I was always drawn to capturing life, even as a kid of the 80’s playing with my grandfathers Polaroid and cutting videos to VHS. It has remained a lifelong passion and I’m still that child at heart! </p>
<p>I grew up surrounded by art. My mother was an incredible artist and around age 7 I would go to the art school with her… that is until I admitted to stealing $2 from a tip jar in the art school cafeteria and she made me go back to apologize, I don’t think I ever returned after that! I spent countless hours looking through her ArtNews magazines and peeking at the charcoal nudes she hid under the bed. We spent time at galleries and amongst her artist friends, from painters to potters and I would absorb myself in the stunning old black and white photos from my parents youth. It’s the photography that stuck with me.</p>
<p>I eventually went to art school but maybe it was the trauma of my early art school experience and I only lasted a few years. So began my travel and life adventures that lead me to where I am now some 25 years later. Art requires life experience and they can’t teach that. My career moved through web design, photographic restoration, to film and television and into business and brand management but it’s the photography that stuck.</p>

<h1>My Work</h1>
<p>I merge the timeless and collectible beauty of stills photography with the magic of motion pictures. Captured as pure lens based light and data, in high resolution 12bit cinemaDNG raw. I don’t animate still photos. I craft works of magical realism for digital art displays in a collectors home or commercial space or proudly held in an online wallet. </p>
<p>Now minted as single or limited edition NFTs on the Blockchain, my work is growing in value not only for their timeless nature but as a future proof format. Motion art photography has an intrinsically collectible value and is being viewed by collectors as a diversified contrast to the 3D and graphical arts that are dominating the digital art market.</p>
<p>At the end of the day I’m obsessed with what I do, it is the culmination of everything I am and I believe intensely in the power of photography to connect us as humans on this strange rock we call home. </p>

<h2><strong>Step Two:</strong> On mobile, open the Metamask app, open the left side menu, and go to the browser, then navigate to <a href="http://YoNoMints.com">YoNoMints.com</a> and select from the list of talent to be directed to their listings.</h2>

<h2><strong>Step Three: </strong>You may purchase ethereum directly from the Metamask wallet using a credit card, bank account or Apple/Google pay from the homepage by pushing “add funds” then “buy eth.”</h2>

<h2><strong>Step Four:</strong> To purchase, go to the item in chrome or the wallet’s browser and push “buy item”.</h2>

<h2><em><strong>"Non-Fungible Tokens”</strong> </em></h2>
<p>Are one-of-a-kind tokens that represent a unique good or asset, like digital art. They can be sold in auctions for collectors to bid on or purchase, and the sale of NFTs unlock new revenue streams for creators. (<a href="https://help.foundation.app/en/articles/4742869-a-complete-guide-to-minting-an-nft">Source</a> .)</p>
<h2><strong><em>Minting</em></strong></h2>
<p>Minting an NFT is how your digital art becomes a part of the Ethereum blockchain–a public ledger that is unchangeable and tamper-proof. Similar to the way that metal coins are minted and added into circulation, NFTs are also tokens that get “minted” once they are created. Your digital artwork is represented as an NFT so it can then be purchased and traded in the market, and digitally tracked as it changes collectors in the future. (<a href="https://help.foundation.app/en/articles/4742869-a-complete-guide-to-minting-an-nft">Source</a> .)</p>
<h2><strong><em>Tokenization</em></strong></h2>
<p>The process of converting a sensitive piece of data, such as a primary account number, into a unique, nonsensitive equivalent — a “token” — that retains the original data’s essential information without compromising security. Tokenization is a process used in an increasing number of credit card transactions to enhance their security.</p>
<h2><strong><em>Crypto Wallets</em></strong></h2>
<p>The digital wallet where assets are stored securely.</p>
<h2><strong><em>Blockchain</em></strong></h2>
<p>A data structure that holds transactional records and while ensuring security, transparency, and decentralization. You can also think of it as a chain or records stored in the forms of blocks which are controlled by no single authority. (Source.) </p>
<h2><strong><em>Ethereum</em></strong></h2>
<p>NFT's are part of Ethereum Blockchain. Ethereum is a cryptocurrency like the infamous Bitcoin but Ethereum's Blockchain</p>
<p>also supports these NFT's which store extra information, like a drawing, painting, GIF, moving animation, and more.</p>

<p>Welcome to a new world filled with authentic experiences, complete accountability, and stunning art created by your favorite artists. A place where the monetary value on digital goods is decided by the artist. A place that bypasses the social construct and limitations and that gives you an opportunity to be apart of something beautiful and revolutionary. </p>
<p>There’s magic in a true community. We can’t do it alone. One of the most amazing feelings is to build together, evolve together, and progress together.</p>
