I strongly recommend reading it for a basic
understanding of a vegetarian diet.
I'm trying to do this aerated thing because it
seems like it is fast and also SHOULD do a good job killing microbes and seeds
too.
Unfortunately, it is not that easy, you cannot just
shut off part of your mind and let a drawing flow out effortlessly.
It was slightly more work than I anticipated, but
everything went pretty much as planned. Maybe we will meet one day.
Joi Ito's Web: Forcing Lefties to be
Righties?
Joi Ito directs me to vegan.
That composting bin is impressive. When your left
brain is in charge you label each element, for instance, "that's an eye" and draw
what your left brain thinks of as an eye element instead of what you actually
see.
My favorite drawing professor said "A drawing is a
continuous record of millions of tiny choices made by the artist.
As for as I can tell, while my brain may be
"damaged" by this, I can, for the most part, function normally. A poem might involve
reflection.
Two years ago, iCommons established the yearly
iSummit conference as a way to bring together the thinkers, innovators, and pioneers
of the "Open" movement.
It seems there is so much vegan information out
there in terms of online shopping and stuff that I get overwhelmed at
times.
I had always wanted to draw and finally ended up
taking a couple courses at the Art Gallery of Ontario after going through the above
mentioned book on my own.
It is just stuck on with a staple gun.
Meditation is just being still enough to give room
for a conscience - or should i say real intelligence.
It felt like scratching an itch and I knew the
leaves would end up in the compost and eventually in my tummy. It can build
camaraderie, if it is tempered with consideration.
One thing I remember from B.
When your left brain is in charge you label each
element, for instance, "that's an eye" and draw what your left brain thinks of as an
eye element instead of what you actually see.
now tell me, what is it you actually
love?
But it's not trying to be still, or even being
still. I throw, kick and do most physical things with my left hand, but I write, cut
and do other "formal" things with my right hand.
Not exactly the future of credit: it's still flight
miles, just a little more fuel efficient.
She gives the reader a number of techniques to
"trick" the left brain into letting go - drawing very fast, drawing very slow or
drawing an image that is upside down.
This is useful when you are trying to assess a
visual image in a left brain sort of way. Excerpt: I'm not vegan, but I often
think I'd like to be. This whole NXIVM stuff was really based on Buddhism in so many
ways, I didn't feel it was that "amazing" as some friends told me, but at least got
me into reading more about Buddhism.
I am into 'tricks' so this book is of interest to
me.
