Film Premiere – The Living Matrix —The Science of Healing, 9/10

In the full length film The Living Matrix -The Science of Healing leading researchers and scientist, such as Lynne McTaggert and Bruce Lipton share information that will transform your understanding of how to get well and stay well. The movie uncovers new ideas about the intricate web of factors that determine our health.

Dedicated scientists, psychologists, bioenergetic researchers and holistic practitioners share their breakthrough discoveries on the “Miracle Cures” that traditional medicine can't explain. How can we account for these cases and many others like them? Modern Biochemical medicine has no framework for explaining these events, often dismissing them as spontaneous remissions or the placebo effect. But, what if we had the scientific basis not only to explain the phenomenon but the means to deliberately initiate these miracle cures? The San Diego movie premier will be held at The Celebration Center on Thurs., Sept 10 at 7pm and will be followed by a Q&A with special guest John Maguire, Author, Teacher and Director of the Kinesiology Institute. The cost is $10 per person. The Celebration Center is located at 5820 Oberlin Drive, #108, San Diego, CA 92121.

Documentary Film – The Cove released in Aug

The Cove is a 2009 documentary film documenting the annual killing of more than 23,000 dolphins in a cove at Taiji, Wakayama in Japan. This film exposes an atrocity of unimaginable brutality. The dolphin slaughter depicted here is committed yearly and without knowledge of the general Japanese public, even though they could be buying highly toxic mercury laden dolphin meat disguised as fish from their local supermarkets. Barred access to the site, the film crew was forced to utilize covert military tactics and equipment, including thermal heat sensors and the help of two world class free divers to accomplish their mission. Leading the crew is notable Richard O'Barry who trained Flipper for the 70's television show.

The Cove is an activist film at it's finest, exposing this well kept secret and the truth about the intimidation and governmental attempts to cover it up.

The film was directed by former National Geographic photographer Louis Psihoyos and was filmed in 2007 using underwater microphones and high definition cameras disguised as rocks. It won the US Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival in Jan.
