The Floating Bed Co. just opened a new office in Austin, TX

The World’s first true Wellness Bed is now available for you to personally experience in Austin.
The new company office and demo location is at 4609 Laurel Canyon Dr, Austin, TX 78731. The local office manager is Alo Brewer. Call 737 786 3115.

After 20 years of success in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Miami, the Floating Bed Company has just opened a
new location in Austin. We welcome anyone who wants to experience this new way to relax and sleep to come
try it, to see what all the buzz is about. Demos are by appointment, and at no cost to you.
Everyone wants to live longer, & better. Scientific studies find that the 4 best indicators of health and longevity
are diet, exercise, sleep, and stress release. The original Floating Bed will improve your life by providing
better sleep and relaxation / stress release – two of those four factors. So how does it work?
The Floating Bed gently rocks you via your own body’s movements, thanks to its unique motion. The single
pendulum suspension uses the same safe motion that people feel in mothers’ arms, and it produces the same
blissful feeling. In fact, this motion was already proven to work on you personally (just ask your mother).
No other Bed has ever used this motion, which is why this Bed was awarded a patent. Independent studies (on
sleep onset, quality, depth, lymphatic circulation, and more) have found that this motion is just as effective for
adults as it is for infants. Users have better EEG readings, another benefit. (Another word for this motion is
“Vestibular Therapy,” which is great for everyone, and also for ADHD, autism, aspergers, and other special
people.)
It is completely different from the motion of waterbeds, hammocks and all other swinging devices.
You will instantly feel the difference – every body does. Just 4-5 minutes sitting awake or relaxing in one feels

like a 20 minute refreshing nap. So it replaces your bed, and sofa, but it does much more than that; it’s a multi-
purpose health and wellness solution.

They can be indoors in the bedroom, living room, guest room. or porch. With the stand, they can be outdoors,
on grass areas, decks, etc. People use them for a quick break/recharge, or as self-contained indoor or outdoor

sleeping quarters. They are so cool they never look “out of place.” With the privacy tent, it’s a rainproof all-
weather bedroom, guest room, or for glamping. There are many accessories, based on usage and décor.

They are named one of the “10 Most Romantic Hotel Beds on Earth” by Condé Nast Traveler, & praised
by Disney World® Resort as “The Bed of the Future.” They grace top-tier hotels, boutique inns, spas, retreat
centers, and discerning homes, indoors and out. Celebrities like Steven Tyler, Uma Thurman, Jason Momoa,
James Cameron and many others are enjoying their own Floating Beds at their homes every day.
TripAdvisor guest reviews are all 5 Stars at hotels now featuring them.
The photos and the science are intriguing, but they cannot fully convey the actual experience. Fortunately, we
can prove just how peaceful it is to relax (or even better, to sleep) on one. Two minutes in a Floating Bed will
tell you more than anything we say. After demoing it to over 40,000 people we can guarantee that you will

prefer this new “relaxation tech” to your old-fashioned bed. Parents, kids, guests – every body loves gentle rock-
ing with this ideal motion.

As stay-at-home orders due to the ongoing pandemic have forced many of us to learn to love solitude and become reacquainted with our homes, one couple’s life has remained virtually unchanged.

Ten miles north of Tofino, British Columbia, off the west coast of Vancouver Island, Catherine King and Wayne Adams live on a sustainable, floating compound. It’s called “Freedom Cove,” a labor of love, hand-built using recycled and salvaged materials. It’s been their home for the past 29 years.
Freedom Cove is a 25-minute boat ride away from the closest town, and don’t even think about hopping in a car. “The only option to get here is by water,” Adams says. “There are no road accesses. The water is our highway.”

While there are lines that tether the compound back to the shore, it is not anchored to the ocean floor.
When you arrive, you’re immediately greeted by bright magenta buildings with dark turquoise trim. An archway of whale bones welcomes you in.
The compound has everything you could possibly think of and more: a dance floor, an art gallery, a candle factory, four greenhouses, six solar panels, and access to a small waterfall that provides constant running water.
It has its own waste management system
The couple has even figured out their own waste management system.
“It’s the most common question we’re asked,” Adams says.
They installed a floating tank to, in Adams’ words, “deal with the affluence.”
If they wanted to, King and Adams could completely self-sustain on Freedom Cove without ever needing to go into the city.
It was inspired by nature
As artists, King and Adams always drew inspiration from nature.

Adams is a carver, using found elements in nature – like feathers and bones – to create his works.
King is an artist, dancer and a natural healer, having studied homeopathy.
But why live off the grid?
“I wanted to be a successful, wealthy artist, live in Tofino and have a studio in the wilderness, like all good rich artists should,” Adams says.
“I was hoping to make a lot more money as an artist. We could never buy real estate, so we had to make our own.”
A call from nature pushed them to make their dreams a reality.
It was the result of an accident
After staying in a friend’s cabin in Cypress Bay, a large storm blew wood onto the property.
King and Adams gathered the wood and used it to build the bones of what would become their future home.
“I guess we were being given a sign that this is the time to begin,” Adams recalls.
As they continued to further grow their home, the couple followed with their precedent of only using recycled and salvaged materials.

Many parts were gathered from loggers and fishermen in town. Adams would trade them art for whatever they had in their backyard, whether that was old fish farms or floats.
A piece of Plexiglass scrounged up from the Victoria Hockey Rink forms a clear glass floor in their living room, which Adams can lift up to fish from the comfort of his couch.
It began as a sort of ‘downsizing’
Prior to Freedom Cove, the couple lived in an apartment in Tofino. They call their move into nature a “deceleration process.”
“We had all kinds of things like food processors and items that would require a lot of electricity,” King remembers.
“We gave them away to people and unloaded a lot of things in preparation.”
They had no choice. The first iteration of their floating home had no running water and no power.
Today, their day-to-day is quite a bit different to what it was in Tofino.
“Living out here, you can’t just get instant anything,” King says. “We can’t just order a pizza … we can’t just go to the corner store … You have to do the work to get what you want, if you want it.”
It’s more than just home, they say
Doing that work is an ongoing process of learning, changing and growing.
King starts her day by sweeping and shaking out the carpets.
“In the wilderness, there’s always a lot of dirt and dust,” she says.

She then waters her thousands of plants and vegetable gardens – all germinated from seeds – and rows out in her canoe to gather seaweed for compost.
Adams begins by gathering firewood and starting a fire to make sure the house is heated.
They both work on building new components for their home.
“It is a project,” King says. “It is a project in growing food to provide for the family. It is an art project … It is a project to have a space to move, to dance, to play music, to do things spontaneously that you couldn’t just do in the same way if you were in the city.”
Their neighbors are … unusual
And while they may not have any human neighbors for miles, the couple still has plenty of company.
“We have some resident crows here who are part of the family,” Adams says. “We know all the birds here.”
“We have named Harry the heron, Sylvie the seal,” King adds. “Gertrude and Heathcliff the seagulls.”
“I had lived in the big city, I knew what that was like,” King says. “I really needed the peace of the wilderness.”
Twenty-nine years later, that’s still the greatest draw of their home.
“Going into a city is just shocking in the sound department,” King says. “I get kind of jangled up inside … the noise starts to get to me, I find it’s easy for me to lose my center.”
“We have carved a piece of the world out for ourselves here,” King says. “We can live uniquely, differently than anyone else on the planet.”
But, how about seasickness?
“I don’t get seasick,” Adams says. “When I go to town, I get land-sick.”

The post Off the grid on a homemade island a CNN Story appeared first on Good News!.

Zhen Joy Lin, Dame of St. John of Jerusalem and president of World Water Rescue Foundation and Vice President of Good News Broadcast is feeding white swans for celebration The United Nations World water Day. Water is from divine Water is the secret of life, save water is save life, love water is love life, because life is the most precious.

As days gradually lengthen and the last vestiges of Winter recede, ice and snow begin to melt and the first buds of Spring appear. In many parts of the world the Swan is a symbol of light and considered the harbinger of Spring, and to me one of the most wonderful sights at this time of year are swans floating serenely on village ponds, in parks and on rivers. With their long serpentine necks and pure white plumage, throughout the ages their grace and beauty have inspired the imaginations of poets, artists and musicians alike.

In some cultures the swan is a feminine symbol associated with the Moon, and in others a masculine symbol associated with the Sun. In Greek mythology, swans are associated with Apollo, the God of the Sun, and with Zeus who took on the shape of a swan to get close to Leda with whom he had fallen in love. Greek Goddesses associated with swans include Artemis and Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love who travelled in a swan-drawn chariot.

In Celtic mythology the pagan Goddess Brighid celebrated at Imbolc (02nd February) is also associated with swans. Brighid is a triple aspect Goddess (revered as Maiden, Mother and Crone), who as a Maiden ruled over Poetry, Writing, Inspiration and Music; as a Mother over Healing, Midwifery and Herbalism; and as a Crone over Fire and the working arts of the Smithy. So what better this Inbolc, than to consider the attributes and teachings of the Swan.
