 Alright so I thought I would talk a bit about the pineal gland, this is something I mentioned before I made a quick video about this. I just want to in this video to talk about what the pineal gland is, how it works and why you might want to look at decalcifying the pineal gland also for opening your third eye. Now the pineal gland is a small endocrine gland located directly between the two hemispheres of the brain. So unlike a lot of other brain organs and brain parts the pineal gland is actually not linked to one of the particular hemispheres. A lot of the parts in the brain are either left or right brain right but the pineal gland is actually right in the middle of the two hemispheres it's about the size of a grain of rice. It's enormously important for things like your circadian rhythm, for regulating your sleep patterns and it's also the main gland responsible for sexual maturation in males and females as well as you're developing. It's a hugely important thing. The actual purpose of the pineal gland is not really well known, it's obviously strongly linked to circadian rhythm so your dreams and your sleep and how you feel and how your energy works but we're not entirely sure what its purpose is and how it works. We do know a few things about it. So we know that if there's too much calcium deposits on the pineal gland it starts to function worse. We know that with impaired pineal gland function there's an increased risk of cancer. Now most of these studies have been done mainly on animals. Okay there's not been a huge amount of research done on humans but we do know that there's a correlated link between impaired pineal gland function, cancers and various other degenerative diseases. In a nutshell it's important, this gland is really important, it plays a huge part in our circadian rhythms and in how we sleep and feel in general. The really interesting thing is that throughout history, throughout many many different civilizations and cultures, the pineal gland has always been represented as the link between the physical world and the spiritual world. Now interpret that however you want right that could mean when I say spiritual world that could mean the astral realm, the lucid dreaming realm or even just visions and hallucinations but the point is it's always been portrayed to have a link between the physical aspect of life and reality and the non-physical right, the etheric, the auric or the energetic and dream base. So there's no doubt it's important right all civilizations pretty much knew this and have known this throughout all of time but it's only recently that there has been a huge increase in number of things substances, chemicals or you know whatever it is that damaged the pineal gland. Now I'm not going to go into why because to be honest I don't fully know why or understand you know the methods and motivations behind it. We do know that the pineal gland is very responsible for how we sleep, how we feel and at energetic levels. I'm not going to comment on the spiritual side of this because it's very debatable and subjective. This is where things get interesting so you may have heard the term pineal gland calcification. Now what this means is that the pineal gland is obviously a very delicate and fragile gland. It contains a number of methods and different ways it interacts with all the other things like the pituitary gland and the spinal column and everything like this and it all sort of works in harmony. Throw one part of it off the thing doesn't function properly and it quite easily just closes up right it's almost like it's a shy turtle it just closes up and goes back into its shell. In this case the definition of that is calcification. Now what happens when you have too much calcium or other substances in your body you will deposit calcium and phosphate crystals on the pineal gland. This is not good right this is really bad and these over time these phosphate crystals damage the pineal gland and make it function worse. As a result you know you're less able to have a healthy sleep pattern. You're less able to think and feel right and good. There's also been a link between the pineal gland function and that gland also affecting other things which therefore affect your ability to think and make rational decisions. I can't quite remember full disclosure I can't quite remember the exact link and how that happens but I have definitely read about it and it's something that I'm going to be researching a lot more in writing and you know making videos about in the future. Over the last few years there's been a lot of fluoride in our ingestibles right in our water in our toothpaste and in all sorts of other things as well. Now fluoride is a big contributor to calcification of the pineal gland. Fluoride is a poison but for some reason fluoride is still being pumped into our water. If you look into the history behind this I'm not going to go into it here but if you just research yourself you'll see there's a very shady history behind fluoridation in the water. Those of you who know you know right those of you who don't maybe you should research it yourself I'm not going to go into it because it's a bit of a rabbit hole. The fact is for some reason fluoride levels have been increased through water, toothpaste and various other types of things. Other types of chemicals which can damage the pineal gland have been slowly added to our consumables like to shampoo and to non-stick teflon frying pans and all sorts of other stuff and I'm not sure if this has been designed this way but in order to the end result of that is that we increase our intake of dangerous chemicals which over time right and it won't happen overnight but over a certain period of time like you know the years we're talking here it will damage your pineal gland among other things right now maybe this wasn't the intended effect but the fact is you should probably look into what you're consuming whether that's you know the thing the foods you eat and how they're prepared the chemicals are used to wash and treat your food even vegetables and that's why I normally try and get organic vegetables and I thoroughly wash them but even that doesn't take out all of the damage damaging chemicals in them like the pesticides and whatever. You know the things you eat are important but also the things you unwillingly consume like the chemicals in for example the shampoo they are absorbed by your skin the chemicals even in your spray on deodorant are in you inhale them and they enter your respiratory system and enter your body and bloodstream that way. There are all sorts of ways that chemicals can enter your body and do damage without you from realising this is just an introduction to the pineal gland I'm going to be doing a lot more about this because it's something that fascinates me. In the next video I'm going to explain maybe the link between pineal gland lucid dreaming dreams etc and then maybe in the video after that I'll explain how you can activate or open your third eye. Now that's all for another video one last thing I want to say to you guys I'm still developing my lucid dreaming app okay I showed you a very quick screenshot of that before I went through some basic features but it's almost finished okay if you really if you would like this it's going to be completely free on the iTunes store the app store so it's also not going to have any ads if I can help it I'm going to really try my hardest not to put any ads on it so I will really be relying on essentially Patreon support and you guys hopefully go on to my site and buy my books to support the development of this app now I'm going to quickly show you this app screen here and then you've got the tools section which is going to the tools section which here includes like various different types of supplements you know techniques or whatever by neural beats all these things acronyms there's a load of acronyms here I've tried to be really detailed and then you've got the dream journal here which is going to be auto sorted by month you can search by lucid non lucid add dreams it tells you how to dream journal and then the most I would argue the most important feature of the app the reality check reminder so there's loads of stuff here you can set the reminders to be however often you want random but the point is since I posted that video about the app the other day loads of people dozens of people commented saying they want it on Android now I was unaware that there was such a demand for an Android app I have pretty much spent my entire budget on developing the iPhone app if you would like the same thing on Android I really want to do this but it's just not within my reach at the moment financially it costs a lot to develop an app I'm not coding them myself I'm sort of directing somebody else to to develop it for me so if you would like to see the lucid dreaming app I'm about to release on iPhone on Android and again it will be free on Android please consider donating on my Patreon and sort of becoming a supporter or maybe going on to my site buying one of my books or courses or whatever even if you even if you can't afford to do that please just leave a comment and like on this video maybe look at some of my other videos every view and every piece of engagement does help me and that will provide me the support hopefully to develop this on Android because I really want to get this out to as many people as possible this is going to be a free app which really will help you lose a dream so yeah go ahead and consider becoming a patron or you know liking one of my videos leaving comment buying one of my books whatever and I will see you next time
