Coming this September: Sun Valley Spiritual Film Festival in beautiful Sun Valley, Idaho.
Artists, thinkers, speakers and spiritual leaders invite you to “see the world through ideas” in a broad selection of spiritual films from around the world. Explore cultural applications of spirituality as well as new thoughts, ideas and pathways to personal awareness.

Jim Walsh, the CEO of HESA Institute and the CEO of Intentional Chocolate, is one of the speakers at this year’s Sun Valley Spiritual Film Festival. Walsh will present the short film, “Cracking the Cosmic Egg” which he describes as being the new frontier in human energy systems where science, spirituality and nutrition all combine to provide maximum health benefits for mankind. Here is a bio of Walsh from the site:

Well I believe in a Spirit filled life and I like chocolate.
.-= Dr. John´s last blog ..Some Thoughts on Blogging =-.
Dr. John — I always worship God when eating chocolate. It’s one of his best creations.
intention embedded food?
are they high?
Tilden, the scientist in my house thinks that has to be it. In fact, this morning he told me, “Just delite that and forget it exists.” And of course I said, “Are you kidding, I have to read this!”
Dr. John stole the chocolate… I mean, words!… right out of my mouth.

Okay, back from reading a few articles… and I say, hand over the dark chocolate! Please!! One thing I do like about dark (vs. milk, etc.) chocolate is it takes care of my craving without making me want more and more and more. I have been unable to O.D. on dark chocolate. This is a good thing.
.-= kcinnova´s last blog ..Tree of Desire =-.
Karen — dark chocolate has long been touted as good for us. Prayer has proven to be good for us. So chocolate and prayer together certainly can’t be bad for us, right?
Prayed upon chocolate can ONLY be a GOOD thing! (or a GOD thing!) I’m FOR it! And DARK chocolate IS my favorite!
.-= Melli´s last blog ..Random 12… =-.
Melli — it isn’t necessarily “Christian” prayer. It is a purposeful mediating of good wishes. Walsh claims that the reason you momma’s cooking is so much better than anybody else’s, is because she made it with loving and good thoughts specifically for YOU. Okay, if I buy that statement, then how can I buy the “We meditate good thoughts into our chocolate in just the same way” statement when they don’t know who is going to buy the chocolates and most likely weren’t thinking specifically and lovingly of them?
However, I wouldn’t be adverse to trying his chocolate. I am certain, as he claims, it will improve my mood. Chocolate always does. Oh — and it stimulates the same endorphins as good sex.
I like Sun Valley…it makes me happy.
Chocolate makes me happy
God made me….pretty happy about that…
perhaps a trip to Sun Valley is in order
.-= Shelly´s last blog ..I know I’m not the only one =-.
Shelly — I would be happy to accompany you …..
I’m not sure which intrigues me more — the film festival or the chocolate. I would love love love both, I think.
Never heard of Sun Valley Idaho, but my friend Jay went to visit a friend in Idaho and I was amazed at the beauty in the photos he brought back.
.-= Susan at Stony River´s last blog ..Water water everywhere and ummm….. um, er… huh?? =-.
Susan — I was born and raised in the most beautiful place on Earth — Northern Idaho. I am from the land of ice cold lakes, blue skies and towering green mountains. The area we are moving to is close and has a very similar landscape. My soul is looking forward to it.
Have you heard of Hemmingway?
He was from Sun Valley, Idaho.
