The following hurricane preparedness article is very forward thinking and an open mind just may play a critical role in saving us all someday.
Glen B. Stewart has a far reaching yet proven perspective on preparing for deadly hurricanes. This evolutionary approach will rewrite history. In fact his global team will peacefully interact with as many turbulent and destructive forces of nature as possible. From now on.
This is where he needs your help. Read on
A typical hurricane is a force of nature equal to the energy of thousands of nuclear explosions. Mankind has finally experienced a breakthrough in peacefully dissipating deadly hurricanes throughout the planet.
For today again the Stewart principle will be a peaceful guardian angel in reducing another hurricane. This remarkable process has saved as many as hundreds of millions of lives in the past 5 years alone.
Shockingly enough – Mankind now has the capability to peacefully turn the deadliest category five hurricane into a windy storm. Amen to that!
What can a general public to prepare themselves to fend off a deadly hurricane in 2010?
Remain calm and have total confidence that you now can be part of hurricane reduction meditations. Picture this – using law of attraction principle to attract calming peaceful hurricane dissipation throughout the storm.
Do What?
Hurricanes are massive bundles of spinning turbulent energy. Knowing that our goal is to attract peaceful stillness over the hurricane. Picture your intentions being a serene blanket of peace for example. This type of approach is far more effective when you’re meditating.
A positive focused intention throughout the day will fortify your focused meditations. The best approach is to meditate for 45 minutes or so the positive healing intention directed towards the oncoming hurricane. The management team and so limited though perhaps take a walk to something that clears the mind.
Glen personally contributes at least three or four of these concentrated meditation sessions for each day of a known hurricane crisis. He meditates with healing energy intentions at random times along with his students globally.
This will act as like a healing energy blanket harmonics by overlapping positive intentions globally. This is the Stewart principle of synergistic energy healing.
Imagine that you’re sending focused peaceful intentions to the divine. The divine in return magnifies your intentions. These positive energies are part of a life-saving spiritual contribution extending deep from within your soul. Imagine that these positive healing energies are combining globally to manifest a healing difference.
The best way to develop these abilities is to meditate for 20 to 45 minutes daily. A new daily meditations that focus with a single intention that is strictly actionable. This focused healing intention can be applied with a fair amount of training.
Energy healing additionally has been used for healing a person or even positively changing weather patterns. Both the practice in a healer have roots in all ancient cultures have been called many things. Names like shamans, medicine men and seers described these sacred, finally enabled healers.
Fast-forward back to today. Energy healing is very much alive in a totally unanticipated yet urgently needed way. Besides the quest to share with the Western world values of holistic health and energy healing.
Glen B. Stewart’s “Mankind 2.0″ Energy healing is about to receive the award of uncommon valor for saving lives globally with hurricane reduction abilities.
This evolutionary approach will free mankind once and for all from deadly forces of nature. Local national and global disasters such as hurricanes tornadoes tsunamis and violent storms will now be within our grasp. As more One With The Winds students become trained our abilities to protect ourselves at the local level will now enhance the preparation against our toughest challenges.

Disasters and Public Health $43.99 From the San Diego wildfires to multi-drug-resistant strains of bacteria, communities are facing an ever-growing list of potential disasters. Some events, like pandemic flu or anthrax attacks, are public health emergencies first and foremost. Hurricane Katrina taught us, however, that lack of planning for the frail, elderly, and impoverished population can turn a natural disaster into a healthcare nightmare and lead to needless death and suffering. Emergency managers and public health professionals must integrate their prevention and response efforts to serve their communities most effectively. The structure of each chapter offers an innovative approach to organizing key information: 1. Case Study or Historical Example 2. Disaster-specific Terms Defined 3. Disaster Description 4. Health Threat (Morbidity and Mortality) 5. Prevention 6. Immediate Actions 7. Recovery or Managing the Aftermath 8. Summary Disasters and Public Health is a crucial tool in planning for and responding to the health impact of any crisis situation. Bruce Clements served over 20 years in the U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard as a Public Health Officer and a Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Warfare Defense Instructor, a Hazardous Materials Specialist with an Urban Search and Rescue Team, and as a Safety Officer with a Disaster Medical Assistance Team. He also served as the Public Health Preparedness Director of Missouri in 2006, when the state experienced a record number of disaster declarations. Throughout his years of experience, he frequently needed to track down a variety of references to quickly understand what was needed for an effective public health response in various situations. He has researched and compiled this information on the health impact of a wide range of disasters into one quick reference. Emergency managers can also no longer afford to be surprised by the next crisis that erupts. This book guides planners in both disciplines in preventing tragedies by most effe |
