    Mental Health, specifically anxiety, is the number one health issue worldwide, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). This mind-illness is a tragic situation, but what is even more tragic is science, philosophy, and religion don't know what the mind is! How can you expect to alleviate anxiety when you don't understand the foundation? 
    Mind Refreshed broaches the crux of the matter. This book is a practical workbook following Sam Kneller's Mind-Body Problem Solved, where he explains what consciousness and mind are based on theology. Genesis 2:7 says God breathed neshama (the breath of life) into each human. This is consciousness. Job 32:8 reveals there's a second spirit in humans, the ruach. These two spirits work intimately to confer on humans their humanity. 
    Humanity can be summarized by the five traits of consciousness each human possesses: Reasoning, Purpose, Conduct, Socialization, and Rulership. When these traits are in alignment, there is a sense of peacefulness; the opposite leads to anxiety. 
    The key point to remember is that this mental makeup applies to all human beings regardless of race, beliefs, or gender. The solution to anxiety is Biblical, but it applies to all people because everyone possesses consciousness and a mind. Every person is diverse because each of us uses or misuses the above five traits differently. 
    Alleviating anxiety involves identifying the most manageable barriers to hurdle in these five areas of our lives and replacing them with doorways to walk through. The real question is, what are the doorways, and where do we find them? 
    Mind Refreshed reveals this. It is a practical workbook that will help you alleviate your anxiety slowly but surely and replace it with the peace you crave.

    What is a meteor or meteorite? A meteor is a small body of matter apparently from outer space that upon entering the Earth’s atmosphere resembles a streak of light, what we normally call falling stars. A meteorite is one of these that successfully hits the ground and sometimes other things, including people, buildings and animals! 
    Until 1803 most scientists regarded falls of meteorites as absurd and fantastical. As well as impossible. This was until the massive fall onto L’Aigle in France of thousands of meteorites on April 23rd 1803. Previously on November 11th 1799 there had also been a massive meteor shower comprising thousands of meteors that was seen all over the Earth. This is now known to be the Leonid meteors whose falls have diminished since. The Leonids come around every November, usually near the beginning of the month. Funny how this is a peak period for UFO sightings! That was accepted meteorites. Then you have such things as Black Comets. Black comets are extinct cometary nuclei which no longer create outgassing. No tail is visible. They are black and difficult to see in space unless they are passing celestial bodies. Even these seem apparently normal when you look at everything that has come crashing down, sometimes heavily and sometimes lightly, from the skies. Amongst the true meteorites and possible fragment of black comets, and possibly even antimatter, and even large blocks of ice, what then are the rest of these? That the majority of UFO sightings might actually be misidentified meteoric or cometary bodies. The list of incidents from the sky including numerous near misses. Are they meteors, comets or UFOs or a combination or misinterpretation of all of the above?
