I just read the most helpful advice on how to improve your chances to survive an earthquake.
When buildings collapse, voids are formed next to large objects like desks or beds. Curl up in a foetal position at the foot of your bed, or lie down next to the desk (not under it) because large objects might compress slightly but leave a void next to it.
Do not stay in your car or even crawl under it. Rather, lie down next to it, because again, you have a better chance of a void forming around the vehicle.
Wooden buildings are the safest type of construction to be in during an earthquake. Wood is flexible and moves with the force of the earthquake. If the wooden building does collapse, large survival voids are created. Also, the wooden building has less concentrated, crushing weight. Brick buildings will break into individual bricks. Bricks will cause many injuries but less squashed bodies than concrete slabs.
Never go to the stairs. The stairs have a different "moment of frequency" (they swing separately from the main part of the building). The stairs and remainder of the building continuously bump into each other until structural failure of the stairs takes place. The people who get on stairs before they fail are chopped up by the stair treads - horribly mutilated. Even if the building doesn't collapse, stay away from the stairs. The stairs are a likely part of the building to be damaged. Even if the stairs are not collapsed by the earthquake, they may collapse later when overloaded by fleeing people. They should always be checked for safety, even when the rest of the building is not damaged.
Get Near the Outer Walls Of Buildings Or Outside Of Them If Possible - It is much better to be near the outside of the building rather than the interior. The farther inside you are from the outside perimeter of the building the greater the probability that your escape route will be blocked.
Large stacks of paper does not compact. Large voids are found surrounding stacks of paper.
Ahhh, maybe I have finally found a postitive use for our 4,000 plus books collection!
Stay safe, be blessed and keep looking up!

ON EATING GRASSES
Dr Ann Wigmore was a huge proponent of the healing properties in grasses. She used wheatgrass juice to help a group of people written off by the medical establishment, and within weeks these people were mobile, and indeed they became well enough to continue their daily lives as normal.
According to a report I have just read, both Barley Grass and Wheat grass can help to prevent or fight cancer.
Barley Grass is rich in the anti-oxidant enzyme SOD and the special protein P4D1 both of which slow down the deterioration and mutation of cells. Experiments show that P4D1 can activate teh renewal DNA in cells severly damaged by X-Rays or sun radiation.
Barley Grass alkalises the body - cancer cells survive in an acidic environment.
Wheatgrass oxygenate the cells - cancer thrives in an oxygen-poor environment.
Both of these grasses nourish cells, which strengthen teh body's immune response against disease.
They also provide a strong detox, removing pollutants, chemicals, metals and other foreign substances from the body.
Taking Wheatgrass Juice on a regular basis will also increase your calcium intake which strengthens the bone and teeth. There are simply no negatives here!
You can grow your own, or buy the powdered greens at your Health Food Store. We use them in our Green Smoothies and we love it!
Have a blessed and healthy day!

TIPS TO TRY AND MINIMIZE YOUR RISK OF GETTING CANCER
If I told you that a few lifestyle changes can dramatically reduce your chances of developing cancer, would you take a look?
Here is a list of some positive things you can do to help your body stay healthy :
1. Try to avoid pesticides, herbicides and other xenoestrogens in toiletries and personal care products - there are several companies that provide organic, non-toxic products or pop into your Health Store and start with Olive Soap and look for natural shampoos and cleaning products.
2. Take fish oil every day - I take 3 capsules of Omega 3 every morning
3. Make sure you get curcumin, resveratol, garlic, chlorella and melatonin / asphalia daily.
4. Get lots of sunshine - it helps your body make Vitamin D. If you don't get enough sunshine, take a supplement!
5. Take 15mgs of Zinc and 200 mcg of selenium every day.
6. Watch your weight and exercise daily - a 30 minute walk a day will help your bowel to function properly and could help prevent problems with the colon later on.
7. Avoid fried foods ad increase your intake of raw fruit and veggies - so much easier during the warm summer months.
8. Boost your immune system by taking a course of astralagus, echinacea and cat's claw four times a year.
9. Get yourself a filter for your shower to make sure your skin absorbs only pure water - no nasty chemicals!
10. Go out and take a walk in the park.
Above all, have some fun and make sure you have a laugh evey day! Don't take life too seriously, and spend some time in meditative prayer.
Peace and Harmony to all
