A Letter to Our Readers October is a magazine publisher’s dream. You’ve got a major holiday the last day of the month, meaning your cover art will have legs—not like, say, July, when your big deal holiday is the fourth. Fireworks and such get pretty stale by mid-month.

Better yet, October’s got a companion holiday the very first day of the next month, and they share a common theme of celebrating scary things that go bump in the night – meaning you can cover both your Halloween base and Day of the Dead base with a single iconic skull image. Might get you all the way to third base if, no matter how gratuitously, you can tie in a reference to a Mexican wrestling mask.

The gratuitous Mexican wrestling mask reference.

Get matching Mexican wrestling outfits for you and your sweetie – masks, tights, the whole bit – then party down all night for Halloween. Greet the dawn of the Day of the Dead with some shots of fermented agave juice, and the best two falls out of three.

That might even get you past third base.

The next time you are contemplating a decision in which you are debating whether or not to take charge of yourself, to make your own choice, ask yourself an important question. ‘How long am I going to be dead?’ With that eternal perspective, you can now make your own choice and leave the worrying, the fears, the question of whether you can afford it and the guilt to those who are going to be alive forever. – Wayne Dyer

by Dr. Dr. Joe Jo oe e Vitale Vit i al ae

LOVING WAYNE DYER

and saddened the world.

He influenced millions, inspiring them, educating them, being a light for the road ahead. He wrote forty books, recorded numerous programs, and spoke to millions.

He changed my life, too, way back in the early 1980s.

I borrowed his books and cassettes from the public library.

I watched him on television.

He was brilliant in articulating principles I hadn’t heard before.

He was one of the first great living teachers in my life.

I still remember him talking about the difference in scolding a child, and scolding a child’s behavior.

They were two different things. The child was never wrong, but their behavior might be.

The first audio program I ever heard of his was How to Be A No-Limit Person from Nightingale-Conant.

That was probably around 1980. I was still struggling, but deeply searching, too.

Wayne’s program helped me rethink my own life, including my beliefs and behaviors.

He helped awaken me to inner powers and renewed optimism.

He helped get me through the dark night of my soul.

I learned book marketing from Wayne.

I remember the story of him quitting his job in 1976, loading a station wagon with his first book (Your Erroneous Zones) and traveling the country for an entire year, going on every radio or TV show that would have him as a guest.

It was old school, door-to-door marketing.

He was relentless and persistent in sharing his message to the world.

When he returned home, his neighbors said, “Hey, while you were on vacation, your book became a bestseller.”

6

Obviously, he made it one.

I never met Wayne in any formal way, but we spoke at the same event for Hay House in Austin a couple of years ago, and I saw him once years beforehand.

We were walking along the beach in Maui, going in different directions, and I said hi to him.

He paused long enough to acknowledge me, but I kept walking.

He was with a friend and I was focused on my walk.

I’m certain he would have stopped and chatted, as I sensed his humbleness, serenity and friendliness.

But the moment passed.

And now Wayne Dyer, age seventy-five, has passed.

I regret that I didn’t stop my stroll long enough to share a few words, and to thank him in person for influencing me, too.

The world will miss Wayne Dyer, but they will never forget him.

His contributions will live forever. As will our love for him.

Thank you, Wayne.

You did well.

S

ixty years ago, 1955, The October Country was published, a spooky collection of short stories

by Ray Bradbury. Like Poe and Ambrose Bierce, like Rod Serling calmly welcoming you to the Twilight Zone, Bradbury was a master of understated creepiness.

No blood and guts and zombies in these guys’ stories.

They could find the macabre in the mundane, the touch of fear in an everyday setting.

No apps either, no downloads, streaming, loading downstream, or whatever. You read their stories in books – books you could touch, feel, even smell while your brain took you to an October carnival sideshow, a shadow blocking the stars on a lonely ridge outside your cabin in the wilderness, a tapping on your chamber door on a midnight dreary.

When these tales became films or TV shows, you sat in a dark movie house or living room instead of watching your mobile device (although such devices can bring their own version of horror if you watch them while you should be doing something else – say, driving, or looking before you cross the street).

Should you ever find yourself in a scary movie, there are certain precautions you can take to keep yourself safe – and they segue nicely into just enough text to get to the end of column one.

Three things you should never do in a scary movie. t 0QFO B DMPTFU EPPS BOE MPPL JO t (P PVUTJEF UIF IPVTF BU OJHIU UP TFF XIBU UIBU OPJTF was, or worse, get out of the car – and leave your date there. t )FTJUBUF UP SVO PWFS BOZUIJOH BOE BOZPOF JO ZPVS QBUI to goto go the opposite direction when the ominous music starts.

As a backup plan, carry a very large caliber handgun with silver bullets soaked in holy water and rubbed with garlic, maybe a flamethrower if you can find one.

You just can’t be too careful when you’re in a scary movie.

8

Head trips.

Most scary movies are in your head, of course, your own creation or that of someone you let in – things like the cabal of alien androids piloting a giant planet hiding behind the moon, ready to round us up into abandoned Walmarts, crash the world’s economies, and put Bigfoot in charge of the Untied Nations.

Tomorrow.

Okay, next week at the latest.

Once upon a time, you actually had to have evidence to get anyone above the level of The National Enquirer to spread such tales, but the internet makes it possible to spread information, misinformation – and fear – faster than a hellhound on your trail.

This is a shame, because there are a lot of real conspiracies out there, and it’s easy to get distracted from them by all the hoorah. Take our healthcare system.

Please.

If a conspiracy is a conscious effort by a group of individuals or organizations to keep something from you (say, physical and fiscal wellbeing), the spider web of the pharmaceutical, insurance, and for-profit healthcare industries beats the socks off even the wildest nutcase scenarios – then overcharges you for new socks. Toss in Monsanto and the processed food industry, link them to petrochemicals, circle back to pharmaceuticals – voila, you’re surrounded.

It’s a tough nut to crack, and the truth will only win if you make informed choices and don’t buy into sideshows meant to distract you – unless, of course, they star Nick Beef, supposed neighbor of a north Texas cemetery plot bearing the name Oswald and creator of the esoteric form of verse known as the DieKu. Beef’s back, in Austin All Natural, just to prove that (to paraphrase Joseph Conrad) “Mister Beef – he alive.�

A final piece of wisdom to remember when the going gets scary – follow the example of the Day of the Dead symbol you carry around in your head every day, just beneath the skin.

Flash a fine, toothy smile.

Looking for answers?

DON’T LOOK NOW Scottish Psychic Luke Danskin, Nov. 12 Ever wished you could be your own psychic? Here’s some advice from Luke Danskin, Scotland’s rising star psychic medium. “No matter if you’re religious or not, there’s no denying there’s a great power all around us that works with us in our lives. This force is also within you, and you’ll feel it when you connect to it.�

Being connected with the greater force, he explains, doesn’t mean understanding everything about yourself. “That could take a lifetime. Being connected is simply being connected, and we’ve all felt this at some time in our lives.

When you get a little stuck on your way to your dreams, or just stuck in your life, the greater force is there to be used. Ask what you want, and you’ll get the answers.�

So why do some people feel they never get the answer?

“The key is not to look for answers, because you probably won’t find the ones that are meant for you. You must be aware of everything around you. When you accidentally see something, or maybe overhear someone talking, it most likely could be the answer.�

Luke got his first answers as a child, when he realized his mum couldn’t see the man who followed him around the house. It took personal loss, encouragement from a cousin, and some discipline and confidence from martial arts training to bring his skills out. He’s only been a professional for a relatively short time – and has a waiting list of over four years for private readings.

His appearances feature random, accurate, and detailed messages to audience members from family or friends who have passed into the spirit world, filled with warmth, laughter, and the style of understated humor only a Scotsman can pull off – think Craig Ferguson, doing readings. “No one can tell you what the greater force will do for you. It depends on how you connect with it, and how you understand it. Everyone is different when it comes to this force.

Many people just don’t believe in it, but many do – and if you believe in it for just a short time, you will see results.�

Luke Danskin begins his first American tour in November, featuring a special appearance November 12 at Unity Church of the Hills, 9905 Anderson Mill Rd. Information: www.UnityHills.org/LukeDanskin or www.lukedanskin.com Promotional video: www.YouTube.com/LukeDanskin

COVER YOUR ASSETS Taking credit cards?

EMV compliance is here.

Received a new or updated credit card recently? On the front, you’ll notice a small gold square of interlocking geometric shapes.

Mark of the Illuminati? NSA bug? Nope – just a chip, part of new compliance requirements for credit card transactions, an alternative to the magnetic strip on the back.

Effective October 1, if you accept credit cards and swipe them on the spot there’s something you need to know, according to Ms. Monica, the Austin hippie with a law degree who handles credit card processing and specializes in independent, alternative businesspeople. “If you’re holistic and healthy in mind, body, and spirit, bring that into your business. Strengthen your payment processing system like your immune system by changing to an EMV (Europay, Mastercard, Visa) compliant system – and avoid legal liability for a data breach.�

To be clear, she explains, “Merchants aren’t required to be EMV compliant, but if your company isn’t, you’re liable for data breaches occurring through your point of purchase transactions – not the bank handling the transaction.�

To put this change into action: t .BLF TVSF ZPV SF VQ UP EBUF XJUI ZPVS 1$* 1BZNFOU Card Industry) insurer.

A professional can help you determine that. t $POHSBUVMBUJPOT :PV MM CF QSPUFDUFE MFHBMMZ BOE CZ your insurance, for any data breaches.

EMV cards are harder to duplicate.

With magnetic strips, personal information is easily stolen. “New strips can be reprogrammed with your credentials, and, tah-dum, a new, bogus credit card in your name. With chipembedded EMV cards, it’s nearly impossible (at this time, anyway) to recreate these cards. If data is stolen in transit, these cards use one-time encryptions for that particular transaction, and that data can’t be used for another transaction.�

EMV technology is new here, but old hat in Europe. In France, implementation in 1992 resulted in an eighty percent reduction in security breaches.

Contact Miss Monica, J.D., for help with independent credit card processing. (512) 822-6700. For more EMV information, visit www.IndependentIsland.com

Pretend you’re a conspiracy. What’s the best way to hide your nefarious goings-on?

Pile up rocks and stuff to keep the rank and file from peeking in? Worked for centuries, but now the rank and file has drones, phones, and cameras in their eyeglasses, and everyone’s a reporter.

Build an electronic wall? Ask the legions of hackers ready for a new challenge how well that works.

Nope – you want to build yourself a wall of information so thick it takes a state-of-the-art BS detector and a trail of breadcrumbs to find a path through it.

But wait – information is education.

My Magic Mud

Isn’t it?

Maybe, maybe not. It can be obfuscation if you put enough out to confuse the issue, inject a viral dose of fear, then spoon-feed folks what you want them to hear.

Peddling weedkiller? Scare people into thinking we’ll all starve without Roundup-saturated GMO’s.

Peddling pharmaceuticals? Invent a new syndrome that matches every symptom imaginable, then trot out the new drug.

Peddling vaccines? Saturate the news with stories of lifethreatening epidemics.

Any hope?

Always. The main thing a conspiracy wants to hide is the truth, and as the X-Files taught us, it’s out there – in books, films, and communities.

Austin’s Brave New Books has all of the above, and has gone a step further by not only providing information you can use to educate yourself about problems, it’s working on solutions. Alternative healthcare is only a viable alternative when you can find it, so new owners John and Kat Bush are building a curated collection of natural healthcare products, ones they’ve tried themselves that were up to their standards.

Their goal is to provide a central location and neutral meeting ground for activist groups of all varieties. “We’re also focusing on ways to move out of solely providing information to becoming part of the solution to problems discussed in the literature and movies found in the store. We’re a diverse, active community of politicos and anarchists, lefties and conservatives – but most importantly, we’re a bunch of curious people on a quest for the truth.”

The New Valentine’s Day The Heartwaker’s Club, with Zaeli The wheel of the year turns to the end of harvest season, invoking homages to the Reaper and the death winter brings.

This October, consider Halloween not just a quirky holiday, but a prompt to examine relationships.

What in the world could Halloween teach you about romance?

Consider its roots. Halloween is a time to un-repress notions of death (dress up like a zombie), of our gory constitution (a mauled zombie), of sexuality (a sexy mauled zombie), mocking the fear that shrouds mortality from consciousness.

Halloween invites us to party with deep taboos.

And that’s exactly the kind of courage we must practice to achieve greater intimacy in relationships.

Aversion to facing death is an aversion to endings in general, and the unknown that follows. We prefer what we know and want the thing we love to last forever. Alas, this isn’t nature’s way. Dressing up as ghosts, or honoring ancestors with Día de los Muertos, acknowledges all life that’s moved out of the way to make room for ours.

Accepting life’s need for death is deep spiritual work, as is accepting the value of relationships that cease to be what we had planned for them. The demise of a romance doesn’t make it less real, or not worth it. Light a candle for each person you once loved, even if they hurt you. Give thanks for good times, lessons learned, freedom to move in new directions with new hearts.

Blood and gore also come to your doorstep on Halloween.

It’s shocking to see innards out in the open, how messy they really are, strange to be reminded bodies aren’t contained by definitive boundaries – they bleed, they come apart. We like to think we’re each a discrete being, even though on quantum and spiritual levels, that’s long debunked. We’re all made of the same stuff, one life force swapping costumes. Focusing on that builds compassion, from which honesty and forgiveness arise.

Halloween celebrates the trickster, a mischievous folktale archetype maintaining cosmic balance by smashing pumpkins on your porch. Every relationship tangles with tricksters, so when it happens, try to react good-naturedly, knowing no one gets a smooth ride start to finish. Bypass blaming and just help each other clean up.

The Mysterious art of the Mysterious Nick Beef How to create a DieKu: t (FU B DBNFSB t 3PBN UISPVHI CPOFZBSET QIPUPHSBQIJOH IFBETUPOFT t "SSBOHF VOBMUFSFE QIPUPHSBQIT JO UISFF MJOFT BSPVOE B Zen-like theme, in the five-seven-five syllable pattern of traditional Japanese haiku.

Who’s the Beef?

DieKu first appeared on fliers around New York City, sometimes with political themes, the work of the shadowy Nick Beef. They made their appearance in print in these pages five years ago, when Beef contacted the magazine via automatic psychic transmission. (Optional speed shift, overdrive.)

Conspiracy aficionados know a headstone with the name NICK BEEF occupies an obscure sector of a cemetery in Arlington, Texas, next to an alleged presidential assassin. The marker appeared overnight in 1997, with no evidence of a new grave. The plot beneath it, according to cemetery officials and literary critics, is empty.

Is Beef an urban legend? A CIA spook? A real spook?

To date, he is the only known practitioner of the art of the DieKu. For the true identity of Nick Beef, visit www.AustinAllNatural.com (or, what the heck, just google him). For the latest from Mr. Beef, visit www.NickBeefNYC.com

Mystery Maniac is an ode to Mr. Mystery himself, Edgar Allen Poe, commemorating his classic tale of The Pit and The Pendulum. To read the pendulous second line, follow it like the stock market as it dives down Dee Pitt, followed by a dead cat bounce up to Andy, then plunges llike a headstone and finishes with a gradual upturn.

WHO’S DRIVING THIS BUS, ANYWAY? CZ $ISJTUJOB "MMFO Many of us have profound connections to the Divine.

Some people hear guides, some channel, and some just know things. It’s brilliant and exhilarating to actually receive messages from the Divine, but it’s important to know the voice of your ego, too, because your individual consciousness has a sneaky way of trying to jump in and steer that bus.

As any spiritual disciple knows, the first stumbling block on the journey to genuine connection is the individual consciousness – the ego. In fact, it’s probably the only real obstacle in our path. Many try to stamp out their egos or deny them, in an attempt to make that connection clearer, but the ego isn’t going anywhere. It’s the part of us that oversees the day-to-day operations of our survival on the planet, part of the software that comes with the body.

Its job is to identify with things that will insure our success and survival. It defines itself by roles, gender, race, job, birth order and such. It also evaluates its standing and rank in any environment, in an effort to find the niche it can survive in best.

In fact, when it retracts from its duties, we find ourselves feeling lost and depressed.

Your inner, bratty two-year-old.

Individual consciousness starts to take a strong hold when we’re about two years old. This is when we first understand the concepts of me, mine, and the power of no.

In many respects, the ego is always that bratty two-year-old wanting its way – we just find ways to refine it and shape it to be more gracious.

Because it’s loud and demanding and has its wants and desires, the ego often overrides the more subtle voice of our soul consciousness. This is why having a spiritual practice is so important. In spiritual practices, we learn how to recognize and transcend the voice of ego and align with the voice of our souls.

We do this through breath, movement, meditation, mantra, art, music, connecting to nature, and many other avenues that break us out of the body’s sense of time. From this place, soul consciousness comes online and we can connect to the Divine cleanly.

16

The glitch.

Soul consciousness is with us through eternity. It’s not worried about definition, standing, or survival because it doesn’t die. It’s looking for ways to evolve. Each time it gets into a body, it steps into cause and effect. Without a body, there are no interactions – and without interactions, we cannot grow and evolve consciously.

The glitch is that each body has its own operating system already in place with an ego at the helm, so there’s always a dance between these two forms of consciousness as we navigate each lifetime.

Even on a spiritual path, the ego gets involved. It will identify itself as a spiritual person, and look for validation and ways to affirm and express its prowess. It wants to do the hardest asanas, wear the right clothes, eat the right foods, drive the right vehicle to let the world know it has arrived. As soon as we give in to identifying ourselves as spiritually adept, however, we have collapsed into what Chögyam Trungpa calls spiritual materialism.

The question is always the same.

Who’s driving this bus?

In Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras, he says that the practice of getting out of ego is a daily one. Enlightenment, that place of divine connection, comes from being able to hold an egoless state of consciousness, but it must be refreshed and reinstated daily because we default back into the body’s voice for survival, daily.

Enlightenment is not some final resting place of the spiritually elite – it’s a profound state, found and sustained through daily practice.

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Should you use it?

CZ /FSJTTB 0EFO It’s a question that never seems to go away. “Is apple cider vinegar healthy for me?”

Health practitioners and physicians will provide different answers to this question, depending upon the ailment that needs attention. People who are sensitive to any kind of fungus (molds and yeasts) should stay away from all vinegars, including all apple cider vinegars.

It’s true that apple cider vinegar is healthier than other vinegars for adding to foods, but that doesn’t mean it will be a healthy dietary addition to everyone.

Vinegar has antimicrobial properties, which includes some fungi. This is why so many health providers and Internet articles say it’s beneficial to health, including for fungussensitive clients. However, vinegar is also good at killing off bacteria, the natural competitors of fungi. Anyone who’s compared washing fruit with diluted vinegar to washing them with diluted hydrogen peroxide will notice mold and fungus growing more frequently and quickly on the vinegar-laced fruit.

You may already know that raw apple cider vinegar contains probiotics, but it’s still mostly vinegar. Would adding probiotics to alcohol suddenly make it a healthy product for people who are alcohol sensitive or intolerant?

No – the alcohol would produce the same problem for those individuals. So how does the presence of probiotics in vinegar make it healthier to the fungus-sensitive crowd?

Don’t even touch.

Ingesting vinegar, applying topically, or even touching surfaces cleaned with vinegar can likewise be detrimental to the health of individuals with fungus sensitivity. White vinegar can be an important natural cleanser for the home, but fungus-sensitive individuals should be wary of overexposure to any vinegar-based food, health cleanse, body care, or home cleaning product – including all apple cider vinegars.

Mold and yeast-sensitive individuals should avoid all foods containing vinegar, alcohol, sugar, and most fermented foods, with the exception of foods fermented with probiotics.

Lemon juice is an alternative ingredient to any vinegar-based food product, like a large variety of salad dressings and other condiments – unless, of course, you also have a lemon sensitivity.

FINDING THE

Centre Booking an event? Location, location, location.

Mandalas, meditators, and merry-go-rounds all have something in common – a center, a point of focus to rotate around. Communities, especially health-oriented, holistic, or spiritual ones, need the same thing.

Classes, workshops, and expos are the lifeblood of such communities, and the idea of starting a holistic center as a place to hold events has occurred to a lot of well-meaning folks. Without planning and professionalism, however, execution sometimes proves to be a bit more complicated than the dream.

Taught a holistic seminar or two? You’ve probably had the experience of calling over and over to book a venue – no answer, no messages returned – or showing up to find a drum circle or primal scream workshop going on in the next room.

A center is only as good as the energy that’s focused on it.

A lot of locations don’t focus on maintaining a venue strictly as an event center, instead providing meeting space as an afterthought, alternative use, or a loss leader for other income. Hotels, for instance, want guest rooms and restaurants filled, and booking city facilities can be a lot like betting against the house in Vegas.

After twenty-two years living in community, Glenn Kikel purchased the Austin Centre in 2007 with a vision of a conscious community center, starting with a base of nutrition seminars, therapy training weekends, yoga retreats, breath work sessions, and a lecture hall for doctors and other medical professionals.

A recent redesign has made the Centre a private and intimate setting with full-spectrum lighting, soft colors, local artwork, and an acoustically enhanced ceiling with a mural of a Hill Country sunset. The 2,000 square foot main hall can be set up for classroom or theater seating for up to 225 people, or as open floor space for movement classes or massage tables.

Private breakout rooms and full kitchen are also available, as is the gold standard for Austin venues – a 78704 location, with plenty of off-street parking.

Win a free weekend rental for your event at The Austin Centre, celebrating eight years serving the Austin community (up to a $1,200 value). Submit proposals at www.TheAustinCentre.com – click Rent Our Facility, enter your group’s information and why you’re interested. Deadline, October 31. Winner announced early November.

Drop in to visit the Centre any time Monday-Friday, 9am-6pm, at 3809 South 2nd St. #A-200. (512) 440-1212, www.TheAustinCentre.com

Why is Wh is mer errcu cury cu ry put ut in you your yo ur mou outh out outh th? th?

IT’S WHERE THE MONEY IS CZ %S .BUUIFX $BSQFOUFS For decades, dentists have placed “silver� fillings to repair cavities and halt decay. Despite the moniker, these fillings contain very little silver. Instead, they’re a mixture of metals, an amalgam. One of these metals is arguably the most toxic metal on Earth – mercury.

Every day, around the world, dentists continue to place fillings containing mercury, despite proven links between mercury and dementia, birth defects, Alzheimer’s, and more.

So why, if they’re so toxic, are they still placed in patients’ mouths every day?

The answer is simple – it’s mostly economics.

There are four major reasons why dentists still use mercury fillings: t 5IFZ SF FBTJFS UP EP OPU BT UFDIOJRVF TFOTJUJWF BT composite or plastic fillings. t 5IFZ SF DPWFSFE CZ NPTU JOTVSBODF t $VTUPNFST QBUJFOUT BSF NPSF XJMMJOH UP QBZ GPS UIFN because they’re cheaper. t 5IFZ MBTU B MPOH UJNF XJUIPVU DBVTJOH PCWJPVT QBJO PS symptoms from the tooth.

None of these reasons should trump your long-term health, or that of other patients visiting the dentist. Mercury vapors can remain in the air up to thirty minutes after a filling’s placed, so if you visit the dentist after someone else had one done, you could be inhaling toxic mercury vapors.

Our practice has gone beyond simply not placing these fillings, since removing them without precautions can also expose you – and your dental team – to mercury vapor. We’ve developed one of the most comprehensive amalgam removal programs in the nation, employing safety techniques used in less than one percent of dental offices in America.

We also use several methods of determining biocompatibility of replacement materials, including: t &MFDUSPEFSNBM UFTUJOH &%5 FMFDUSPEFSNBM TDSFFOJOH (EDS), or electroacupuncture according to Voll (EAV). t "QQMJFE ,JOFTJPMPHZ BLB NVTDMF UFTUJOH t #MPPE TFSVN UFTUJOH GSPN #JPDPNQ -BCPSBUPSJFT

Which one’s best for you?

Depends. We’ve seen instances where a patient is okay with blood serum testing for a material, but when we muscle test for it, they’re “weak.�

Both you and your dentist should know what’s in dental materials before they go into your mouth. Not many dentists test materials for biocompatibility, however, so it’s up to you to ask. Make the extra effort.

It’s your mouth – and your money.

Looking to the Blue Zones

by Dr. Melissa Miskell There’s been recent social media and forum coverage of areas of the world where people tend to live longer, healthier lives. Called Blue Zones, the areas that have been studied most recently include the islands of Okinawa off the coast of Japan and Sardinia off Italy’s coast, and Loma Linda, California, with a sizable population of Seventh-Day Adventists.

How do the people who live in these areas stay so healthy and live so long? Here are several strategies you can incorporate into your daily life that might help you follow in their footsteps. t &YFSDJTF ZPVS CPEZ Sitting is the new smoking.

Working on computers or having other sedentary jobs, it’s more difficult to keep excess weight at bay. Moving around more is also a great anti-aging strategy. In addition to better blood flow, better health, and better range of motion, regular exercise can help maintain your sense of balance and avoid falls, which often lead to broken hips and other disabilities later in life. Fit in a thirty-to-sixty minute walk, swim, or run each day. If that isn’t appealing to you, play tennis or soccer with your friends or family, take a yoga, dance, or fitness class. Walk or bike instead of driving whenever possible, and take stairs instead of elevators. t &YFSDJTF ZPVS CSBJO Keep your mind active. There’s even evidence that doing mental exercises like crossword puzzles or taking classes can prevent or delay Alzheimer’s disease. Read fiction, non-fiction, help your kids with homework – take on whatever mental challenges you can think of. t &YFSDJTF ZPVS TPDJBM TLJMMT Something all Blue Zone communities had in common was depending on each other for social support by spending time with family and extended family. If you don’t have a close-knit family or community, start a social hobby, join a church, spiritual community, volunteer group, or Meetup group.

Stress ages you, so develop a meditation or yoga routine to prevent it. Diet and hormones also play a huge role â&#x20AC;&#x201C; stick to a non-inflammatory diet, see your healthcare provider regularly, and consider professional hormone testing by a doctor specializing in bio-identical hormones.

The Fight of a Century

The Heroine of a Century

Zach Theatre, through Nov. 1

FREUD VS. LEWIS Trinity St. Theatre, through Oct. 18

CZ .JDIBFM "CFEJO

CZ .JDIBFM "CFEJO

Seventy years ago, October, 1945. Former army officer Juan Peron, Secretary of Labor and one of the most powerful men in Argentina’s politics, is thrown in jail by political opponents. He’s released on October 17, the story goes, when his beautiful young mistress makes a passionate plea to the people of Argentina from a balcony.

Good story – but Peron was actually released October 15, when over a quarter million workers and peasants gathered to protest, and he made his own dramatic balcony speech. Facts don’t always get in the way of a good story, though – and the story is Evita.

Imagine an alternate universe, one that occurs on a single evening during a series of real-life events in September of 1939. On September 1, the Nazis invade Poland, kicking off World War II. The next day, September 2, three British schoolgirls arrive at the Oxford manor of an Irish writer, to escape German bombs expected in London, and on September 3, Great Britain declares war on Germany, entering WW II. On September 23, Sigmund Freud – founder of psychoanalysis, one of the most brilliant minds of his century, an atheist’s atheist – dies.

Later in September, the Irish writer starts a story about British schoolchildren sent to live in a country manor to escape London bombing. A decade later, Clive Staples Lewis finishes The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe, the beginning of The Chronicles of Narnia.

Seems C.S. had been an atheist as a teenager, into the occult and Icelandic lore. (Heavy metal wasn’t invented yet.) He did, however, eventually meet JRR Tolkein, who helped coax him back into the church – the Anglican Church, instead of Tolkein’s Papist congregation.

The one-name heroine.

In 1944, an earthquake strikes Argentina. At a gala to benefit survivors, Peron meets a young, dark-haired actress half his age, Eva Duarte. Leaving together in the wee hours, she becomes his mistress – and, by the end of 1945, his wife.

By 1946, she’s blonde, elegant, and, with Peron’s rise to the presidency, First Lady of Argentina.

Eva, from a poor background, becomes a champion of the disenfranchised poor, the working class, and women – then becomes the larger-than-life Evita, the one-name heroine of her people, a national celebrity.

Peron wanted her to be vice-president in 1951, but she withdrew. Her health was declining, and she died in 1952, only thirty-three. In a bizarre postscript, her heavily embalmed body – meant to be displayed permanently in an elaborate mausoleum – disappeared for seventeen years.

Humble beginnings, a meteoric rise to diva-like fame, a tragic early death, a mysterious posthumous subplot – Evita was the spiritual sister of Marilyn and Princess Di. If Broadway hadn’t already been there, God would have created it just so Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice could do the musical. (If he hadn’t created Madonna to play the movie role, she would’ve made the deal somehow – we’re talking Madonna, after all.)

Haven’t seen the movie or play? Bet you can still fill in the blank for this song title – Don’t Cry for Me, _________. Haven’t seen it live? Evita is showing at Austin’s nationally acclaimed Zach Theatre, starring Madeline Trumble.

Glamor, intrigue, revolution (Che Guevara narrates). Evita created the role of a short lifetime, right in the middle of a century.

Evita, through Nov. 1 at Zach, 202 S. Lamar. Showtimes, tickets: www.ZachTheatre.org

Cue alternate universe.

Lewis used his writing to take issue with the recently departed Freud about religion and such, making Aslan, Narnia’s talking lion, a stand in for Jesus. Ironically, while he was writing it he’d been living – in sin, apparently – with the mother of an army buddy killed in World War I. He was eighteen when they met, she was forty-five, he was estranged from his father – and he called her “Mother.”

In whatever afterlife Jewish atheists populate, Freud – who coined the term “Oedipus complex” – was smiling and nodding.

And so the stage is set for the alternate universe of Freud’s Last Session, a two-man play by Mark St. Germain, based on the book The Question of God. Freud and Lewis square off in a juicy, fictitious duel of wits in Freud’s home, thrusting and parrying over love and life and sex and God – the evening before September 3, 1939.

The Austin production features Tyler Jones as Lewis and long-time Austin radio personality and Zach alumni David Jarrott as Freud – and, presumably, a cigar that is only a cigar.

Freud’s Last Session, Wednesday-Sunday through October 18, Trinity Street Theatre, 901 Trinity. Showtimes, tickets: www.JarrotProductions.com

Dear Ashtara: Messages from Your Angels and Master Teachers Dear Ashtara, When I was twelve and lived in the Philadelphia suburbs, I saw an extremely fast moving white light in the sky that suddenly stopped, then hit me with a light and I was knocked unconscious. What happened?

Steve W., 57, Virginia Beach Dear Steve, You might think this is a UFO experience; however, it seems more like a meteorite experience. A meteorite is a solid piece of debris from a comet, which originates in outer space and survives its impact with the Earth’s surface. It is called a meteoroid before its impact. When a meteoroid enters the atmosphere, friction, pressure and chemical interactions with the atmospheric gases cause it to heat up and radiate that energy, thus forming a fireball, also known as a meteor, shooting, or falling star. You were lucky that it just made you unconscious. It is very serious, indeed, for such a thing to happen. I see that Ashtar and others were around you to make sure you were okay.

Dear Ashtara, Family reunions are usually lots of fun, but sometimes people start talking about others in the family in a not nice way. What do the angels suggest I do or say in those situations to help the conversation move back in a positive direction?

Amber, 32, Austin, TX Dear Amber, What I would do in situations like that is walk away without saying anything. With all due respect, it is better to walk away than to stand there and listen.

No need to be disruptive and say that you are going to leave, simply say nothing. At least you will not be caught talking about people behind their back because you left. It also lets them understand that you are

26

not going to be a part of what they are doing. If you’re in a situation like in the car with someone and you cannot leave, just say something like “I’d rather not talk about this.” And then if they say something back, you have to just say nothing. Your highest teacher right now is the Master Jesus.

Dear Ashtara, I am working a lot these days to make up for financial errors I have made. I do feel like I receive lots of help both physically and spiritually. Yet, I want to have fun in life, share it with a woman and let money flow to me through my creativity. I am open to guidance. Joe R., 51, Austin, TX Dear Joe, You were born to be an architect and billionaire. Your path is beautiful. You are a favorite to the Kings Upstairs.

The stock market should be calling you and you will be reunited with your favorite twin flame in this incarnation.

Until then, take a couple of courses with the stock market. Save $4,000 and turn it into $20,000. Take your $4,000 out and keep stock investing. When you were thirty-eight, the large tycoon sprung out of your brain.

Find it again and never give up. Your highest Master Teacher is Raphael.

P Private Sessions can be scheduled (in p person or phone) that include psychic, m medical, profound healings, questions a answered and more. Ashtara Sasha White iis a ‘gifted’ psychic, profound healer, and cchannel from the Ascended Masters/ A Archangels. She is also a Reiki Master TTeacher, Sound Current Healing Master TTeacher, Embodiment Teacher, Speaker a and Teacher of the Light. Join her group o on the 2nd Wednesday of each month at 66:30PM. See her events at w www.AshtaraSashaWhite.com.

Finding Your People CZ %FCPSBI "OUJDI Since I last wrote about navigating the snapback and finding your people, I got a chance to put my money where my mouth is. (When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking the talk, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be handed the opportunity to walk the walk.)

I was given the opportunity to take care of someone close that needed support in a big way â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the opportunity to change someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. Something out of the blue swooped in unexpectedly, changing everything. I was knocked down, and when I dusted myself off after the initial shock and reached my hand up and out, it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for my family.

It was for my people.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for those whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say, why are you doing it that way? You could make a mistake! Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rock the boat.

No way. I reached for the boat rockers, the game changers, for my people.

Know what they said?

How can I help?

Each and every one of them, in their own special way, large or small, did. One grabbed my hand. One sent help. One gave direction. One gave support. I gained strength, guidance.

I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gain ridicule or anger. I could stand for someone who needed me, and see clearly what was needed.

What does that have to do with me, you may ask?

When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re building your team, finding your people, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll inevitably be handed an opportunity, too â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to be knocked down and reach out. When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gathered your people, the hand that reaches back is one of love, support, caring, kindness.

Are those the hands around you now? If not â&#x20AC;&#x201C; change it.

Find your people. So many say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like I belong in my family. I used to be close to them, but now I feel disconnected.â&#x20AC;?

When you move forward, not everyone comes along.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay â&#x20AC;&#x201C; you find new family by bond, connected by thoughts, ideas, actions. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not only okay to move forward towards your true purpose, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a must.

Your people will be there with you, and when they stumble or fall or reach out, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be the one to reach a hand back and help â&#x20AC;&#x201C; because youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been there.
