Hello Beautiful Soul and welcome to the second video in this Chakra ‘Money Lens’ series featuring me and Leisa Peterson of the Mindful Millionaire.
Typically, money is associated with the root chakra and the manifest world. But Leisa who worked as a financial advisor for a large part of her life, says that every chakra affects how we deal with money.
This week, we’re focusing on how your sacral chakra can affect your relationship with money. In particular, we’re talking about what your financial tendencies look like when you’re overactive or underactive in your sacral chakra.
Your sacral chakra is your lowest feminine chakra. This means it’s pretty much the opposite of your lowest masculine chakra, the root. Whereas the root chakra is all about work, stability, planning, and order, the sacral chakra is about the play, change, spontaneity, and chaos.
It’s orange, resides in your pelvic bowl, and relates to the element of water. It’s associated with the embodied Divine feminine and your emotions, creativity, fertility, intimacy, sensuality, spontaneity, ease, and joy. It’s the childlike chakra that simply wants to play and have a good time.
What does your money life look like when you have too much sacral energy?
You overspend and ‘live for the moment.’ If you don’t have much income, you go into debt. And if you’re lucky enough to make a lot of money, you may simply break even and live paycheck-to-paycheck.
When your sacral chakra is underactive, the opposite occurs. You find it difficult to spend on yourself and to actually enjoy the money you earn. You’re obsessed with saving for a “rainy day.”
Leisa says in both cases, you’re acting out a sense of not being worthy of having and enjoying money.
So you can probably guess what the healthy sacral relationship to money looks like. It’s about spending and saving in a balanced way. You know you’re worthy of enjoying the money you make and that you’re also worthy of having some security in the form of a nest egg.
In this video, Leisa also talks about how we sometimes use shopping to avoid processing difficult emotions. At the end of the video, she shares a touching story about the big sacral-money “aha” moment she had when her mother was dying of cancer. It’s a sweet admission that will have you forever questioning the reasons you shop.

Have a blessed week!

consciouslifenews--2020-05-24--Moroccan Students Build Off-Grid ‘Hemp House’ Made Almost‘ Entirely From Hemp And Solar Panels

A team of students in Morocco has successfully developed an environmentally sustainable homemade almost exclusively from hemp and solar panels .
The building was erected as an entry into the SUNIMPLANT project ’ s ‘ Solar Decathlon ’ , a competition organized by the United States Department of Energy and Morocco ’ s Centre de recherche en Energie Solaire et Energies Nouvelles to encourage construction of solar-powered buildings .
This design is unique and was built from only locally sourced hemp , vegetable-based bio-resins , and other non-synthetic materials found in the region .
“ This ‘ spaceship ’ is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ not only in North Africa but in hemp construction , which doesn ’ t have comparable prototypes anywhere in the world.
” — Monika Brümmer , German Architect and Project Leader Monika is also the co-founder of Adrar Nouh , a Spain-based NGO with a focus on using hemp to build environmentally sustainable homes in Morocco ’ s poor and rural High Rif region .
The spherical home spans 90 square meters ( approximately 969 square feet ) and features 24 photovoltaic solar panels with a total price tag of only $ 120,000 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ half of the most expensive entries in the competition .
According to Brümmer , the building could be optimized even further if hemp-clay boards were installed as internal partitioning walls and floors .
Although funding restrictions did partially obstruct their original goal , the home features some interesting innovations such as hemp wool-derived panels which protect the underside of the solar panels against extreme weather conditions , an important inclusion for a region that reaches up to 114°F in the shade during August and September .
Other contestants included students from Morocco ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ School of Applied Sciences and the Fraunhofer Center for Silicon Photovoltaics , located in Germany .

consciouslifenews--2020-05-24--A Tale of Two Pandemics

A Tale of Two Pandemics

No description of the coronavirus is more misleading than calling it “ the great equalizer.
” The horrific truth is that Native Americans , Latinos , and African-Americans are dying at much higher rates than white people .
The horrific truth is that Native Americans , Latinos , and African-Americans are dying at much higher rates than white people—and we don ’ t know the half of it because the CDC hasn ’ t released any racial data about the virus ; we don ’ t know if they ’ re even collecting it .
But the picture emerging from @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that of an atrocity .
In Milwaukee County , black people makeup just 26 % of the county ’ s population but account for almost half the county ’ s cases , and a staggering 81 % of its deaths .
Louisiana , Illinois , and Michigan are no different : black people make up less of the overall population but account for vastly more of both cases and deaths .
In San Francisco , Latinos account for just 15 % of the population but makeup 31 % of the city ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 80 % of the city ’ s hospitalized coronavirus patients .
And in the country ’ s epicenter of New York City , the virus is twice as deadly for Latinos as for white people .
Native Americans are also dying in wildly disproportionate numbers .
The Navajo Nation , with about 175,000 residents , has more cases of COVID-19 than nine entire states .
And more deaths than 13 states .
You ’ ve heard how governors are fighting over aid ?
Well , tribal leaders are getting even less .
So @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of this pandemic ?
For one , black people and Latinos are more likely to work in “ essential ” positions that require them to put their health at risk—a study by the New York City comptroller found that 75 % of the city ’ s frontline workers are people of color .
On top of that , black people and Native Americans experience higher levels of preexisting conditions like asthma and diabetes that make contracting the virus more deadly .
Of course they don ’ t just happen to have these illnesses—this @ @ @ @ @ @ @ decades of segregated housing , pollution , lack of access to medical care , and poverty in action .
But the virus isn ’ t just discriminating by race .
It ’ s also disproportionately affecting the working class and the poor of every kind .
In New York City , the five ZIP codes with the highest rates of positive tests for the coronavirus have an average per capita income of *under* $ 30,000—while residents in the five zip codes with the lowest rates have an average income of over $ 100,000 @ @ @ @ @ @ @ there ’ s testing .
Remember how early on we heard about celebrities testing positive ?
If not happiness , at least money can buy a diagnosis .
New York just rounded its death toll up by a few thousand people who were never even tested .
Studies show that lower-income people are more likely to have chronic health conditions that make the virus more deadly .
They ’ re less likely to receive sufficient medical care or might lack access altogether .
And they ’ re more likely to work in frontline @ @ @ @ @ @ @ health at risk .
A study found that only 3 % of lower-income workers are working from home during the pandemic , compared to almost half of upper-middle-income workers .
Any rush to “ open the economy ” is really about forcing working-class and poor people back into harm ’ s way while the rich and affluent can safely work from home .
For as many workers risking their lives for meager paychecks , still more are now unemployed and on the brink of financial obliteration .
Less than half of Americans can @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nearly 75 % live paycheck to paycheck .
Piecemeal unemployment benefits and one-time payments aren ’ t going to buoy Americans through the next great depression .

But the picture emerging from cities, states, and reservations are that of an atrocity.
In Milwaukee County, black people makeup just 26% of the county’s population but account for almost half the county’s cases, and a staggering 81% of its deaths.

So why are these communities suffering the worst of this pandemic?
For one, black people and Latinos are more likely to work in “essential” positions that require them to put their health at risk—a study by the New York City comptroller found that 75% of the city’s frontline workers are people of color.

For as many workers risking their lives for meager paychecks, still more are now unemployed and on the brink of financial obliteration.
Less than half of Americans can afford a $1,000 emergency, and nearly 75% live paycheck to paycheck. Piecemeal unemployment benefits and one-time payments aren’t going to buoy Americans through the next great depression.
We are all weathering the same storm, but we are not all in the same boat.
Systematic inequality in America has produced two very different pandemics:
In one, billionaires are sheltering in place on their yachts in the Caribbean, and wealthy families are safely quarantining in multimillion-dollar mansions.
In the other boats sit people risking their lives for their jobs and people without incomes going hungry, a disproportionate number of whom are people of color, and all of whom deserve better.

(TMU) – At the start of the coronavirus crisis, Twitter CEO and co-founder Jack Dorsey shocked the world with his promise to donate $1 billion, or about 28% of his wealth, to help with the economic fallout from the pandemic. Now, Dorsey says that he plans to give away all of his money within his lifetime.
This week, Dorsey appeared on an episode of the “Yang Speaks” podcast for an interview about artificial intelligence, universal basic income, and meditation, among other topics. During the interview, he spoke about his recent philanthropic efforts and discussed how the pandemic has accelerated the move towards automation and the need for a universal basic income.
“I live by the principle of everything is connected, so if someone is in pain, I’m in pain, ultimately, over time…I want to make sure that I’m doing whatever I can in my lifetime to help that through my companies’ works, through my own personal giving,” he said.
“I’m in a situation that I never imagined when I was a kid or [even] when I was 25. I didn’t have any aspect of what money would mean until I was, probably 35.I’m so grateful, but part of gratitude is not just saying I’m grateful, it’s doing. I want to give out all my money in my lifetime. I want to see the impacts, selfishly, in my lifetime. I want to make sure that we’re helping people,” he added.
The interview was published as Dorsey was announcing his $5 million contributions to Yang’s universal basic income organization “Humanity Forward.”
Dorsey says that universal basic income is “long overdue” and he believes that “the only way we can change policy is by experimenting and showing case studies of why this works.”
“Every single field is going to be touched by automation, and UBI to me represents a floor. A floor that people can stand on, and have the knowledge and peace of mind that they could survive and eat and feed their children while they are learning how to transition into this new world,” Dorsey says.
Yang says Humanity Forward plans use Dorsey’s donation to distribute small cash payments of $250 to nearly 20,000 people who have been affected by the recent economic consequences of the coronavirus pandemic. So far, Humanity Forward has given away about $2 million in financial assistance to people struggling in the current economic conditions.
“Not only will Jack’s donation directly impact tens of thousands of people in need during the current economic downturn, but it will also help Humanity Forward and our movement continue to make a case for universal basic income in the United States. We know UBI for every American is possible, and this $5 million from Start Small is going to help demonstrate what is possible for families across the country,” Yang said in a statement.
This donation to Humanity Forward is a part of the #startsmall initiative that Dorsey launched last month. Dorsey tweeted a link to a document where information about the donations will be posted, including the amount of the donation and the recipient.
I’m moving $1B of my Square equity (~28% of my wealth) to #startsmall LLC to fund global COVID-19 relief. After we disarm this pandemic, the focus will shift to girl’s health and education, and UBI.
