Our bodies function on energy. In essence, our bodies are energy. Because of this, we as humans are very sensitive to the things that happen around us, and everyday things - such as technology, our thoughts, and our routine - influence how we feel. There are points within the body where this energy is concentrated, and these are known as chakras.

Do you often feel stressed, overwhelmed, or anxious? Would you like to increase your well-being and happiness? If so, then Buddhism could be the answer. Even if you’ve tried meditation or mindfulness before only to find you just cannot do it. In fact, it’s easier than you think. The Department of Psychology at California University has concluded that Buddhism is a powerful way to deal with life events. Research over the past two decades broadly supports the claim that Buddhism practiced widely exerts beneficial effects on physical and mental health.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 1,836
No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.
