It appears as though covid is sticking around much longer than the previous spanish flu pandemic of 1918. So, here’s a compendium of alternate home remedies as suggested by the NIH to help our immune system defend against pneumonia-related disease.

I found this article interesting. I’ll leave any commentary to the reader.

Here’s the 3rd part of aura development – shaping our auric field. I pulled this from a different channel to allow us to expand Hall’s lecture library.

Great. Just what we need – more sleep aid.

With cold and flu season in full swing, a friend in the community has suggested “nettle leaf” supplement for sinus congestion and/or pressure. I said, “ok.” It’s herbal and maybe it can do something about allergy pressures too. One day, I had an allergy flare up and decided to try the leaf. Sure enough, it made any allergy pressure go away.

* I tried just under recommended dosage to see how the body acclimates. It’s a bit slow working at first. But, once the pressure alleviates, it leaves rather quickly – within a few days. Haven’t had to resort to any typical otc allergy med since.

Hope it works for all !

Here’s part 2 of Hall’s talk on our biofields :

Once we learn to fortify our auras, we can then start to control our energy fields.

For 150 years, our world’s health education system has kept the significance of human biofields hidden from us. Let’s find out why as Hall elucidates …

Now more than ever, we must learn how to cultivate our auric field to shield our bodies from electromagnetic waves i.e. : radio, tv and 3G, 4G, 5G, 6G, etc … constantly flooding into our atmosphere.

BTW, Hall’s lectures make for some great listening material when encountering insomnia.

Now that the debt ceiling issue is resolved, is it still a prudent time to purchase short dated treasuries ?

Yes and no.

Treasury bills are short dated treasuries with durations between 4 weeks and 1 year.

Currently, I’ve been rolling over 3 month, 4 month and 6 month treasuries – just keeping it simple – not bothering with 4 week and 8 week durations. All 3 durations have been yielding around 5.3%.

However, one year treasuries have recently been yielding over 5%. I am including one year treasuries into my short term treasury holdings as long as the most recent bill auction yield remains close to 5%.

So, why buy a 1 year treasury that yields lower than the shorter duration treasuries ?

It’s a simple hedge against a possible recession. If the economy goes into recession, the FED will have no choice but to start lowering fed funds rates which equates to the 3 month treasury bill. As short term rates start to fall, 1 year treasuries will most likely yield more than the shorter term treasuries since 1 year rate will be locked in for a year. If we get a “soft landing” economy and the FED leaves short term rates the same, then the 1 year 5% rate is still close enough to shorter term rates to take an interest rate hedge.

We have completed our 20th rotation.
