Publisher's Note

June / July 1997

Welcome to the pages of earthlight!, a premier source of new ideas about health, science, and spirituality. Summer is a time of revelation, when the results of intense Spring growth are made visible. This may also be a time of heightened perception, and clarity. In a still moment, you may discover your ability to gaze within, or beyond.

In this issue we feature the work of two artistic visionaries: musician/director Walt Michael and mural artist William Cochran. These two leaders have applied their extraordinary skills and talents to create artistic, community-based movements aimed at re-integrating humanity. Through visual and performing arts they have involved and inspired thousands, and helped to bring the great community of humankind a little closer together. It turns out that the finest things in life are also the easiest to share, and through shared experience we begin to heal what is broken in the world.

In the health department, Larry Tepper examines the causes of PMS from the view of traditional Chinese medicine. Larry explains that there are many factors which can lead to dis-ease, and that choices we make every day have a profound impact on physical health.

Also in this issue, Linda Luke shares what she has learned from interactions with nature. Here is a valuable lesson about the subtle energies of consciousness. According to many philosophers, the same rules of interaction apply at all levels, from garden to corporate boardroom. Whenever you seek the way of harmony, recall Linda's experience with the butterfly.

There is much in the way of practical spirituality in this issue. Alan Cohen writes about prayer and how to make it work, Carol Heideman explains why negative energy is a gift, and Bettye Binder helps to put life's difficult moments in perspective by explaining the truth about Karma.

All of these articles, and much more, await the pleasure of your company. Find a quiet space, slip into something comfortable, and enjoy...
