YOU HAVE REACHED TOGWELLS PUBLISHING
THE REAL STORY STARTS WITH WOOH

Togwells Publishing grew out of Mary Bridgman's desire to see the story of Ellen Acland of Broadclyst, Devon reappear in print again after a vacation of more than a half century. Then my father passed away, a man of 94 years having spent most of those years as a Christian preacher and pilgrim man of peace. Rev. Bill Lake made more than four pilgimages which he recorded faithfully and which eventually Togwells Publishing will publish. He inspired me to write Wuh Lax and the Cosmic Lantern, the first in a series of books describing the British tradition of pilrimages begun early in the pre-Christian era. In fact, early in civilization itself, a lot of which goes unsung.

Scratches from sketches is a relatively new blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!

Learn a second language! Sing in a choir! Do yoga! Meditate!

University Barcelona : The results of the research do not rule out the possibility that other genetic mutations could positively influence longevity. However, researchers do point out the fact that the excellent health of this family, and of the 113-year-old man in particular, is probably due to a Mediterranean diet, the temperate climate of the island, a lack of stress and regular physical activity. The article underlines the fact that until the age of 102, the man cycled every day and looked after the family orchard.

Woohs stream at http://woohs.blogspot.com taps into many streams of thought and action. Nearby yoga at http://nearyoga.blogspot.com taps into human body movement using yoga techniques and Kundalini meditation. At Togwells Publishing we focus on people's notions of pilgrimage of body, mind, and soul, http://togwells.blogspot.com. Whatever your beliefs, there is no end to motion, just evolution and unrelenting change, seen or unseen. Energy is motion both in reality and calculation. Take time to rest even though all inside you is always moving. Your massive relative pause gives opportunity for other smaller streams to catch up. Take time to meditate so that you can see with your mind what lies within and beyond.
