Our beautiful chooks here supply all the eggs we eat at home and we wondered about keeping a few meat birds too, just standard farm broilers, so chatting about it have found out something that makes me mad and sad. The broiler birds I'm looking for are bred for the meat industry and for meat alone. You can't keep them longer than 6 weeks as they just start dying. Their hearts fail. We've manipulated these birds into meat growth things, they can't live. Isn't that insane.
(and this lovely pic of our chickens is from last year. Right now they're locked up to comply with the Bird Exclusion Zone we're in because of Bird Flu meantime the field next to us has maybe a 1000 wild geese on it - guess they can't read the Exclusion Zone signs ) 🤷♀️
From Sunday Zen on YouTube! Enjoy ❤️
Let's dive deep into the themes of trust, surrender, and the Threads of Awakening model introduced by Dr. Pierce Salguero in this live episode of Sunday Zen.

Psychedelics as tools
Embracing the unknown and the ...

The first rose of summer in my garden and it's on the candy stripe rose bush I bought after my Mum's funeral. I just realized it's Mother's Day in America so here it is, for you...❤️
Another great week at the beach. I have a question. Wonder if anyone experiences anything similar. Everyday I have multiple thoughts that will just show me a picture or snippet of random memories. It makes
Me crazy. Why? Just does. So weird. Maybe I just didn’t notice before. Often these are not controversial or even meaningful memories. And it’s just a quick flash. Arghhhh. (Of course I worry I’m becoming demented.)Or maybe I’m being shown what I need to see??
A butterfly that looks like a leaf, the water mirroring a feather shape behind the swan and the sun dropping down into my ZDoggMD coffee cup. Beautiful mad world. Oh and 52 years after take off that Russian space craft crash landed already but no one knows where. That's quite enough Earthing for me for one day - it's mad here.
