General Discussion

Carrageenan is a natural substance extracted from red seaweed and widely used in food and beverage production. Known for its ability to thicken, stabilize, and improve texture, it plays a quiet but important role in many everyday products, from dairy alternatives to processed meats. Though often overlooked, carrageenan sits at the intersection of food science, nutrition, and sustainability.

Origins and Production

Carrageenan comes from several species of red algae, primarily harvested from coastal waters in regions such as Southeast Asia, Europe, and parts of South America. After harvesting, the seaweed is cleaned, dried, and processed to extract the polysaccharides responsible for its gelling properties.

Weekend Theme: Listen

This weekend, Spirit gave me a theme: listen. But this listening isn’t about tuning in to the ego—it’s about deeply listening to and with our spirits.

This doesn’t mean we need to sit in meditation all day. Instead, this is an invitation to be aware.

weekend, Spirit encourages us to step away from the crowd and observe the emotional currents rising around us. Instead of ignoring these emotions, allow yourself to witness them and ask, "Is this mine?" If not, invite your angels to take them from you.

This isn't about bypassing issues but acknowledging that you are the experiencer of these things, and if you don't like it, you have the power to change it.

The Sun Dancer encourages us to take time for joy, to praise what is working in our lives, and to engage in activities that help us feel…
