CATCH THE BUZZ
GMO labeling laws move to forefront in battle over food policy
From International Business Times
Across the globe, 61 countries, including China, the European Union's 27 members and even Syria, label genetically modified foods.
But in America, consumers are left in the dark when it comes to knowing which foods and products contain genetically modified (GMO) ingredients.
That may change soon, though, as nearly half of the nation’s state legislatures, according to the Center for Food Safety, have seen bills introduced to require manufacturers to label foods containing genetically modified or genetically engineered products.

| Ashram Update from Ramloti |
Dear Friends,
I am writing this mid month as I received several emails after the last newsletter concerned with my health and energy level. I wanted to assure everyone that I am doing just fine. Yes, there were strong moments before, during and after Navratri but I think many of us experience those challenging times of overwhelm and it is actually a great blessing for more growth. I wrote about it in the newsletter as a reminder to everyone of how much support there is in Shri Babaji’s teachings and the repetition of the mantra, Om Namah Shivaya. I actually just arrived back at the Ashram from California whe ... read more |

Chinese Honey Smuggled Into France
By Alan Harman
Chinese honey smugglers, facing a crackdown in the U.S., are turning their attentions to Europe.
French public service radio station RFI reports honey is shipped from China to Eastern Europe where it is relabeled to say “French origin” and then sent to France.
FPI says a recent study released by the laboratories from the French Centre of Technical Beehiving Studies in Moselle (Cetam) found misleading labels, false country of origin, and additional sugar are plaguing 10% of honey m ... read more |

| Shavasana - Movement for the Nervous System |
Hello everyone,
Hope that you had a safe and happy long weekend.
DIANE JACOBS
A few weeks ago I attended a workshop with Diane Jacobs, a Canadian
Physiotherapist from out West. I was the only non-professional in
attendance but Diane had graciously allowed me to sit in.
The pictures she displayed of the amazing nervous system and the
sometimes impossible route that the nerves travel as they wind there
way from the brain and spinal cord out to the muscles, bones, and skin
was quite awe inspiring. Once again it speaks to the crucial role that
movement plays for the health of this most important system. As always
