Thanksgiving at home with family and friends is a joyful occasion. 2022 was a hard year on many of us - some more than others.

lokalpedia

wonder | wander | world love to collect valuable resources and information - especially innovative projects that promote small and local produce, products and production. 

We are grateful and gratified to have stumbled upon John Sherwin Felix. This young man is a knowledgeable fountain of information on native food heritage and agrobiodiversity. 

lokal+encyclopedia & online archive of Pinoy food

You can find him at Lokalpedia - a visual archive of endangered, artisanal, heirloom, and small batch Philippine ingredients and food items.

This lovingly curated knowledge is a project of The Banana Leaf Kitchen - where John shares his love for Philippines cuisine and local ingredients.

some native food & plants

What a great find indeed - we guarantee you will be intrigued, informed and inspired. Food of the gods for our starved souls - enjoy!

a better model of care

Mad in America is a non- profit that promotes rethinking psychiatric care in the United States (and abroad). It is their belief that the current drug-based paradigm of care has failed our society, and that scientific research, as well as the lived experience of those who have been diagnosed with a psychiatric disorder, calls for profound change in science, psychiatry and social justice.

Cognitive Dissonance on display

There are MIA sites around the world whose commonality is a belief that the disease model of care has failed, and we need a new paradigm of care to take its place. A dire need in the current world we live in and one we hope to cast more attention on here at wonder | wander | world.

time & karma

We are smack in the seismic shock window of November 8 - blood moon total lunar eclipse at 16* Taurus, conjunct volatile unpredictable Uranus, overshadowed by Saturn, Lord of Time and Karma - this wild card eclipse acts as an influx on steroids, deleting the past as it sweeps our slate clean.

transforming human consciousness

This is the grand lead in for the coming attractions of 2023. As the evolutionary burn intensifies - a period and process predicted to induce extraordinary transformations in human consciousness - everything feels different.

Still reeling from the triduum of Allhallowtide - All Saints’ Eve (Halloween, Oct 31), All Saints’ Day (Nov 1), and All Souls’ Day (Nov 2) - our state of bardo is magnified and multiplied. Stumbling in the mystical mists that are intermediate, transitional, liminal - suspended in a state between death and rebirth.
