Welcome to … “REFRESHMENTS” Discovery and Empowerment Dialogue© (Part D)

IT’TIME… To Explore the Nature of OUR ECOLOGICAL STRESS

People and ALL Living Things on the Earth Today Are Undergoing an Alarming, if Not Mutant Form of Transformation Caused By STRESS

ARE YOU AWARE of the 5 Stages of Your Life During which Time YOUR TOXIC BODY BURDEN Accumulates?

During Our Fetal Development, we Are Exposed to TOXINS in the Form of… Air Pollution Household Chemicals Workplace Chemicals & Solvents Everyday Conveniences

Sadly, Until the Dawn of the 21 st Century, We Haven’t Known that There is a LINK Between… Air pollution and chromosome damage Chemicals and sperm count reduction Toxic solvents and hormone disruption Household chemicals and childhood asthma

During Our Infanthood and Childhood we Are Exposed To TOXINS in the Form of: Breast Milk Infant Formula Tap Water Pesticide Exposure Food Additives and Impurities Childhood Vaccinations Household Dust Germ-Filled Play Areas Toxic Food Packaging

Sadly, Until the Dawn of the 21 st Century, We Haven’t Known that There is a LINK Between… Tap water and mental retardation Infant formula and allergies Vaccinations and autism Toxic playground equipment and cancer Household dust and fatigue

During Our Teenage Years, We Are Exposed to TOXINS in the Form of: Pesticides on Conventionally Farmed Foods Processed Foods/ Food Additives Over-Prescribed Antibiotics Personal-Care Products (Make-up, Perfumes) Body Decorating (tatoos made from ink that contains lead and other toxins) Environmental Stress (stress caused by electromagnetic energy coming from computers and cell phones, etc.)

* Antibiotics and yeast infections * Antibiotics and immune system deficiencies * Pesticide exposure and cancer * Personal care products and mood swings * Tattoo art and heavy metal poisoning Sadly, Until the Dawn of the 21 st Century, We Haven’t Known that There is a LINK Between…

During Our Adult Years We Are Exposed to TOXINS in the Form of: Pesticide Exposure Food Additives from convenience foods Meat Hormones and Seafood Cosmetic Use Environmental Stress (from microwaves, computers and cell phones, etc.)

Sadly, Until the Dawn of the 21 st Century, We Haven’t Known that There is a LINK Between… Meat hormones and cancer Food additives and brain damage Seafood consumption and neurological impairments Cosmetic use and cancer Pesticide exposure and nervous system damage Occupational hazards and brain/nervous system disorders Environmental Stress and Alzheimer’s

During Our Senior Years We Are Exposed to TOXIC… Prescription drugs New car smells Tap water bioaccumulation

Sadly, Until the Dawn of the 21 st Century, We Haven’t Known that There is a LINK Between… Tap water and chemical accumulation in body Drug consumption and nutrient depletion Drug consumption and fatal side-effects New cars and formaldehyde poisoning

How Does the STRESS that Humans Experience During a Single Lifetime, ‘MIRROR’ The Earth’s STRESS During Its Lifetime?

Looking at the Earth Today… It’s Easy to See the Burdens of Environmental Stress that Planet Earth is Carrying

How Well Do You Think Humans and the Environment Handle the Stress that Is Caused by Man’s Human Activities?

Can We Support THE CONTINUATION of Life on Earth if Our the Earth’s Responses to The Stress We Put Upon It Become More EXTREME?

Do You Know, Whether or Not, Your Human Eco-System Is Equipped to Deal Effectively with Stress, In Order to Support Life and Energy?

Do You Recognize the Outward Symptoms of Human STRESS That Reflect the Inward Manifestation of Human Toxicity?

Can You Say for Sure, Whether or Not the Earth’s Eco-System Is Equipped to Deal Effectively with Stress, In Order to Support Life?

Do You Recognize the Outward Symptoms of Stress on Earth that Reflect the Inward Manifestation of the Earth’s Toxicity?

What, Exactly, Is Meant By The Term ‘ECOLOGICAL DISEASE’?

Throughout History, It Should Be Said… ‘DIS-EASE’ Has Been Viewed from Two Fundamentally Different PERSPECTIVES

Which View of ‘DIS-EASE’ Do You Think Has the Best Potential to Help Humans and the Earth ‘HEAL’ the Symptoms of Ecological Disease?

Coming Up In Our Next Dialogue… I’d Like To Share a Story with YOU

One of the Things I Missed in My Educational Life while Growing Up… Was the Opportunity to Consciously Know and Appreciate My Place and Purpose in the Great Web of Life on Earth

My Graduation from High School (in 1974) Was a Painful, Yet, INSTRUCTIVE Time for Me

When I Look Out Upon the Earth Today… I Weep at the Thought of Our Personal and Planetary Destruction (i.e., our ‘Eco-Disintegration’)
