Preparation for a world 'melt down'

 






Global changes.
Over the past few years there has been much talk, debate and media hype about 2012, the mayan count calander, earth changes, pole shifts, tsunamis and a myriad of other horrific cataclysmic disasters that we on earth could experience in the coming few years. Major film companies and Hollywood have cashed in and made millions selling fear to the masses, and quite frankly, when i first started to look into it all about 4 years ago, I confess to being more than a little spooked, and decided to investigate...
Wow, little did I know how much of an emotional  journey it would be, the multiple layers that would unfold, how many dots I would be joining and how damned deep the rabbit hole really goes with regards to our world history, politics, the hidden technologies, planetry weather manipulations, secret space programs and the secret societies whos memberships includes our well known leaders, movers and shakers within the major corporations...but thats another story and another blog entirely!!...
For now, I just want to stick to the issues of how we can all  collectvely align ourselves and prepare mentally, physically and spiritually for any upcoming upheaval and change.

If anything major was going to happen on earth,either financial, man made or natural disasters,  its my opinion that the powers that be (TPTB), the bankers, brokers, puppet government and their handlers higher up in the chain of command would definately NOT tell us, as they want the working mice to keep grinding away at the wheel right up until the last second... its all about economics...business as usual until its too late!
Anyone who TRULY BELIEVES that our so called 'elected' leaders or bankers and other corporate 'elite' give a damn about us as a whole are sadly misguided. Those rats will be taking care of their own ship and wont be concerned with us all sinking . In the New World Order agenda, we are expendable commodities.
With the worlds financial bubble about to burst, recent major uprisings in Egypt, Tunisia,Libya and other countries joining forces to rise up against tyranny and the added factors of terrible weather conditions ruining crops worldwide, we are already starting to see the prices of oil, food, vegtables, fruit and grains increase dramatically- and this is forcast to continue! There is no turning away from the fact that globally we are officially in the dogs doodoo.

When i speak to people about this, many simply cannot even comprehend this situation becoming critical and are deeply hypnotized by TV, gameshows, rigged news and truly are not aware of whats going on and how this could all affect us. Those who are over a certain age and have experienced wars, droughts and times of extreme hardship will try and reasssure me that its temporary and things will all return to normal at some point, and I am reminded that everything runs in cycles and there is no point in worrying.
My reply is this; yes indeed, somewhere down the line there will be balance and harmony again, however, in the meantime there are two generations of humans ( many millions if not a billion) living in the western world who are totally dependent on the grid, cashpoints churning out borrowed money, supermarket food, microwave dinners and have absolutely no self sufficiency skills atall!!  ( this pretty much includes myself aswell, apart from the fact i know how to cook healthy meals) Most people used to certain standards of living in the western countries are not equiped to deal with mega hyper-inflation and will have a rude awakening if panic sets in and the masses are left floundering in shock and bewilderment.
The question of what will happen to so many people if they are not at the very least prepared on a basic level of emergency is something that makes me very uneasy and I urgenly want to convey the importance of taking pro active steps as a little insurance! Documentaries on survival have claimed that it only takes 24 hours for ordinary citizens to turn aggressive, ferrel and very dangerous when all the food shelves are empty, no water is coming out of the taps and basic ammenities and all aspects of ordinary life as we know it have been lost.


What should everyone be doing right now?
Firstly, we need to remain calm yet vigilant and start helping others to quickly wake up and smell the rot! Individually and collectivly we CAN help ourselves to ride through certain storms and survive them without too much pain. It's just about being aware, adjusting to another paradigm of reality and making sensible practical decisions that will help in the transition.
All these potential events I mention are out of the hands of ordinary folk, so getting ourselves into a flurry of worry, becoming angry or sinking into depression and staring into the pity pot isnt going to change things or be helpful.

we can take practical measures :
  • Stash some money at home away from banks for 'emergency' spending if that time comes...
  • Possibly cash in some policies or savings invested - With so much instability, nothing is safe or guaranteed 
  • Stock up on food as much as we can afford and store. Dried food, bottled water, cans, tins.
  • Pack 'grab n go' bags/camping gear and emergency survival items for each member of family and store them safely
  • Teach yourself how to grow veg fruit and herbs from the windowsill, gardens or balconies and start doing it.
  • Learn how to cook and bake from scratch. freeze as much as possible so there is enough to share if needed in a crisis
  • Go for walks or bicycle rides and pick healing berries and herbs for free! Learn about the abundance of nature
  • Invest in a good first aid kit, natural remedies and vitamins and herbs for you and the family
  • Get all your relevant health checks up to date and start a health and fitness programme
  • Buy some books or print off online info on survival 'how to' manuals
  • Get together groups of friends and family and plan how you can all utilise each others skills and help each other
  • Maybe put together some talks for the community and help raise awareness- or print out some flyer's & pass them on
  • Make the time to get to know your neighbours and community- people will need to pull together in hard times 
  • Meditate and visualise how we want the planet to heal and envision the future we want to create
  • Start appreciating NOW. we only ever have each moment at a time, so treasure all that is  good in life and be grateful
Then we get on with our lives as normal and watch/wait for the obvious signs of what might be about to go down first...we cannot really prepare for any potential major disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, etc but the other 'hits' we can take on and survive if we have that bit of preparations taken care of in advance...
It doesn't have to cost much getting supplies together- charity shops, jumble sales and boot sales are great for clothing, getting rucksacks and other emergency items. I use free cycle online alot when i need certain items- just ask people- you will be surprised how much you can get for free! As for the food stocks, I recommend even adding a minimum of £10  extra emergency food a week to your shopping will quickly add up to nearly £500 worth of extra supply within a year. Obviously, if you can afford more then its wise to invest more...

This is the time for being practical and organised, so I've been busy the past year getting the extra food  and supplies stored away..just incase! Its simply common sense and natural healthy precaution...We don't need to do preparation out of fearfulness..this is out of a LOVE for ourselves and families. Things are very unstable in the world right now, and the food market will suffer BIG TIME.. prices are hiking up now, so i see it as an investment to have my extra cupboard of tins/packets/dried beans/rice./pasta etc... I

Recently, I've been researching how to grow our own veg in containers. There are many approaches to growing your own food, but this is the most practical way for us, as we live in a flat with no garden. This video gives an excellent demonstration of how we can recycle and turn everyday items into home made earth boxes.



Another useful investiment I will purchace is a camping stove with lots of gas bottles..this would give me peace of mind that if the grid went down for ANY reason and there was no electric or gas available in our home, at least we would get through the first few weeks... . another useful item I recently bought from ebay was a trangia stove-'swedish army issue' it is absolutely tiny and portable so can be packed in the backpack easily!

The rucksacks and the tent I bought in last summers sale are ready to be used at a moments notice. Water bottles are being stored as well.. We live in a flat with very little space for storage, so we can only make the best of what we have.. I did buy an army issue small portable water filter- but I will be purchasing a 'lifesaver water bottle'  www.lifesaversystems.com/ this would be the best investment and these are being sold on ebay also!  Observing the escalating prices of food, fresh veg and fruit I've also decided to invest in a dehydrating machine and am going get busy drying out fresh food and seal pack them for storage. Better to be safe than sorry, plus it helps seal and keep all the natural vitamins and enzymes!!


To be perfectly honest, I go through different stages of this 'survival' and preparation  issue... some months I'm keen to research, purchase, gather and be in 'action' mode, and then other times my mind switches off and I  try and pretend there is nothing real to be concerned about & prepare for...and lets face it, with so many 'doom and gloom'  possible scenarios that we could all face down the road,  its practically impossible to prepare and be 'bullet proof' for them all....we only ever have 'today' as tomorow is yet to be created...
With this in mind,  I now embrace all that is good in life and live in the moment more, trying out new things and venturing down different avenues. Getting a good balance with work, hobbies, projects and spend time with loved ones is crucial, but I always try to keep one eye open and be fully awake to potential events, happy enough with just knowing  the basics have been attended to. .
Maybe the state of affairs globally will settle down and none of us will have to deal with uncertainty and hardship, however, all of my research indicates this is unlikely and humanity really needs to  grow up and wake up to what is happening.  I ask every one of you who reads this to listen deeply to your intuition and the voice of your soul. If your feeling the energetic shift and your intuitively guided to do something then ACT ON IT. Procrastination is the thief of time. Now is the time to be awake and aware... lets join forces and step into the highest part of ourselves and make a difference. I CARE about my fellow brothers and sisters and don't wish to see unnecessary suffering. Join me in taking steps to ensure we look after ourselves and each other.

Its my hope and prayer that as many people as possible start to take positive steps to some basic self sufficiency and preparation in the coming months. This blog is one way I am trying to communicate with a larger groups via social networking. Please help by passing this on to all your contacts and friends. 
Namaste, peace be with you.
