She was so fascinated by this kind of remission that she embarked on a ten month trip around the world, traveling to ten different countries to interview fifty holistic healers and twenty radical remission cancer survivors about their healing practices and techniques.

Indigo and Crystalline Children

The Indigo Children began incarnating on the Earth in the early 1900’s. The early Indigos were pioneers and wayshowers. After World War II increase numbers of Indigos were born. Then in the 1970’s a major wave were born and are now taking their place as leaders in the 21st Century. Indigos continued to be born up to about the year 2000, with increasing abilities and degrees of technological and creative sophistication.

The Crystal Children began to appear on the planet around the year 2000. These are extremely powerful children, whose main purpose is to take us to the next level in our evolution, and reveal to us our inner power and divinity. They function as a group consciousness rather than as individuals, and they live by the “Law of One" or Unity Consciousness.

Global and Cosmic Awareness

Here is a list of various books presenting material about humanity, off-world life, the cosmos and creation. When we are open to what is outside the everyday conventional information, we grow more aware. Thus we are better able to make our own decisions and become self-responsible.

Always question, always listen and read with a healthy skepticism and stay open.
