Gye-Nyame Journey Media

Peace FAM: I have the creeps, after doing this research looking into parasites. I am shocked that these little critters effect almost every part of our body. They are even known to influence our choices, as far as food, and even effect our emotions. There are Protozoan parasites that are famous for causing  sickneses like malaria, tapeworms, flukes, roundworms, and the many different varities that each of these bugs come in. They sit inside of us growing off of us causing all forms illness, and now is the tie for you to take control back. In Gye-Nyame Journey I constantly stress that all of the principles we practice start from with in. I guess liberation starts within as well. We have to make major moves to get rid of these critters within us, so that we can focus the energy to take our lives and tribes back. What bothers me the most is that these little bastards inside of us appear to be working for our enemies. They contribute to us eating less vegitables, by making them undesira

Peace Fam: I am on day 3 of my detox fast. I am of course drinking "That Ambrosia", "That Ambrosia Vinagar", "That Ginseng Ambrosia", water, chloroxygen, coconut oil, red palm oil, and coconut water. I feel good, and I feel the process of renewal. I really don't know how long I am going to do this fast, but i am at the point where the fast begins to be all down hill. After 3 days of fasting I usually feel that I am able to go for another 3-4 days. My goal is to give my entire body time to reset, and to remember what it means to be hungry. I want to be able to harness that feeling and apply it to my videos, podcast, and writing. I have found that I am not hungry I just want to eat, and I had a few close calls. This is a true test of my Kujichagulia, so let's see how far I can take it. It is good to get out of our comfort zone, and eating has always been a comfort for me. Food has always been availiable to me. So to be around my kids and friends th

Peace FAM: Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, we jump into the world of prolonged fasting. I must say that I am amazed. I knew about fasting, but as far as the renewing of the body, and the immune system I am shocked and this will definately be adding this to my regiment. Accord to the small amount of research we have conducted the only things that you really need to maintain a healthy life is proper breathing, water, fasting, and proper food (check out the African Heritage Diet I will be doing another video on it soon) I also unveiled another Ginseg root  that has been sitting undisturbed for 8 days in "That Ambrosia", and I must admit that it is good. It has a nice earthy, slightly woody taste, it is a bit on the bitter side, but very drinkable, and I am going to be rolling this out soon. This kind will only be availible in half, and whole gallons, this willonly be availible with pre-orders. Let me know if you are interested

Peace FAM: As usual we start off with the toast that goes on for a while, because I go into one of my rants about the importance of entrepreneurship in our community. I took time to salute my sister Ayisha for her creation of Almillikah Hair & Body Butter  (visit her site for more info). I have been saying that one of the major businesses that we need to take over in our communities is the "Ash business", there is no other group that uses as much lotion as we do and we need to stop purchasing these types of products from others. we need to turn this product into an engine for economic growth. If we just capture this one industry we would possibly create hundreds if not thousands of jobs, create trade relationships with African countries, and have money circulating in our community. We must remember that money is the blood of a community. As long as the blood is flowing in the body (community), the body is healthy, but if for some reason blood begin to flow rapidly out

Peace FAM: We once again talk about culture, at the beginning I was joined by my girls, but they soon abandoned ship for a movie. This left me the space to have some adult conversation with y'all. We are neglecting the power of culture and the tools of culture, and we will not be able to march very much further in this highly competitive, and race based world if we don't start learning the lessons, and building for our future. Music is such a powerful tool that we have allowed to be hijacked. I recently was at a talent show, and the young people sang, and danced, but all of the songs that my (our) children chose were from white artist. All the songs were about pushing beyond limits and inspirational. I had to laugh because I could not think of any age appropriate songs by a Black artist that my kids could sing that fit that model. We have allowed our culture to be pimped, and turned into a weapon against us. I for one will not stand for it. We have radio stations in our com

Peace FAM: On this episode after we complete the toast, we talk about the power of a cold shower, and how it can help you reach some of your health goals. Although most of us only think about cold water as the knob in the bathroom that is only used to cool down the the hot water for our showers. Cold water has many healing benefits, and is a energizer. most importantly it helps our lymphatic system get rid of some the poisons that our piling up in our bodies. Being healthy is not expensive, and breathing exercises and the use of cold water prove this. Take the plunge and feel the benefits yourself. Tune in and let me know what you think. Peace

Peace FAM: Ms. Gina Gee is at it again. Today she is celebrating the fact that she got to walk across the stage. Last year she missed her graduation, and some of her supporters at the school made sure she got to walk with the graduating kindergarten class this year. One of the reasons I like her doing this project is that she is motivated to do better in every aspect of her life. She is sharing her self, and her personal growth with the world. I know many adults may not agree with this, but unfortunately Gina chose me as her father, and since I believe that it takes a village to not only raise a child, but to move a child to greatness, I will allow her to continue exposing herself to her village. Since we are in the digital age her village is also digital, so welcome. Gina and Shasha also video taped themselves helping me make "That Ambroisa", by getting the tea bags ready, and you get to see Ms. Shasha in her fullness. So sit back watch, and share with other young people i

I am a little behind in keeping up with the creative project of Ms. Gina, but on this installment she takes my phone so that she can get a better quality picture for her fans. She is determined to be a YouTube star, and wants to bring better ideas to the digital realm. On this day she decided to teach the world how to make instant oatmeal. I love the fact that she comes up with this stuff on her own and I am in full support. She even motivated her mother to get in on the act, by having her do her hair before the broadcast. So tune in to my second youngest Gye-Nyame girl as she takes you into the dangerous world of instant oatmeal. Support her efforts by sharing with other young people. who knows what her next adventure will be. As a father I am hyped about her passion and will do everything in my power to support it. At this moment I am looking into getting a camera so that we can dedicate it to getting quality material out for the world to see. My daughters are imitating what they

Peace FAM: I apologize for being behind. Today I didn't have to go to work, and I laid down and been chillin all of this Nia day. On Ujamaa I was moved to do an Old School movie review on a film that I believe does not get the credit it deserve. The Spook is not only a classic but a one of a kind tale that should be firmly posted in every revolutionaries heart. This is movie that introduce us to the idea of struggle, and the possibility of victory if we stick to our principles and training. When I first heard about this movie from my elders I went on the hunt for it, and it took years for me to find it. When I finally got my hands on it, I could not believe what I was seeing. The link to the movie is on the YouTube video, and I look forward to having a discussion about the film after you have taken the the time to see it. Let's Build!!!!

Peace FAM: Today we put the finishing touches on the short study of the lymphatic system. I was shocked to find out that this system did so much for our bodies. Now Let's continue learning and practicing things that will enable to live a long and healthy life. Check the video for even more things you can do to help this system fight off disease.

Peace FAM: This subject was so important I felt that I needed to add more time to it. All of the information that I am running into I am throwing out to you to do with as you will. Take some time review, think about and begin to make changes to improve your life. As my ancient ancestors would say, "Physician heal thyself", we are living in a time where we have access to so much information, that anyone that is not taking advantage is truly choosing to be sick. The lymphatic system is in need of your help, and we will explore how to assist it further tomorrow.

Peace FAM: We are looking at the lymphatic system, and we are learning about what this system does for our body and how important it is. I am totally blown away by this information. I never knew that this system existed or what it was responsible for. Please tune in and let's learn together. The craziest part about this system is that it needs you to be in action in order to move the fluid. In the lifestyle that we are currently living, we spend a lot of time in unnatural positions, eating unnatural food, drinking unnatural liquids, and breathing unnaturally. All of these things contribute to why many of us are sick. The challenge is for us is to learn about our body and begin to use our shell (bodies) as the tool in which we express our greatness in this life. Checkout the video and feel free to add any information that I am missing, or may have gotten wrong. I want to make sure my FAM is properly informed.

Peace FAM: I bottled up some ambrosia and put a fresh root of ginseng in it. I wanted to experiment to see how long I need to let it sit before the jun would start to change the ginseng. I woke up this morning and the bubbles have not stopped. I have never used a fresh root of ginseng. So I decided to sample some of the tea. I was surprised, the tea was strong but very sweet. Which is great news for the yeast involved in this process. Lets look at some of the benefits of Ginseng: *Boost energy *Lower blood sugar levels *Cholesterol levels *Help reduce stress *Promote relaxation *Help treat Diabetes *Sexual Dysfunctions in men *Help with cognitive functions *Anti-inflammatory effects *Cancer Prevention *Treatment & prevention of flu and respiratory syncytial virus Of course we know that all things have a positive as well as a negative side and here is a list of some of those negative effects that can happen: Ginseng can cause: *Head ache *Elevate heart rate *Nausea

Peace Fam: Today me and the girls just had fun, but we were able to discuss the concept of faith in the process that you are practicing. Faith, and trust are important in the process of Selfmastery. Two of the Ten virtues of Maat stress these concepts: "Having faith in our masters ability to teach us (or reveal) the truth." "Having faith in our ability to assimilate the truth" Being able to invest our trust in the process that we are following is paramount, and we have to begin to practice this principle, so that we can move to the next level of our development. Take some time and evaluate some of the processes that you working in your life, and the ones that are worthy to continue, because you have seen the fruit in your life, as well as in other live's, and begin to invest trust in them. View video and feel free to leave comments. me and my daughters wish you Peace, Power, Joy, and 1hunidyears. Brother ha2tim

Peace FAM: Brother Keidi Obi Awadu came to this year's Malcolm X Festival and dropped some information that had me spell bound. Brother broke down where we were and pointed out some major opportunities that is available to those of us in Columbus, Ohio. Powerful words that anyone that takes the time to listen in can grow from. If you are conscious or moving toward it then listen and download this podcast so that you can review. It is incredible to me that the vibe that I am in at this point of my life is ringing loud enough for everyone to lick up. Brother Keidi echoed the fact that I have been stressing, we are in a cultural crisis. We need to practice sankofa and go back and fetch what was stripped from us and remix it so that we can move forward in this world. If we don't begin competing and prepare our children we will miss the platinum opportunities that are laying before. Come on family this is a time for heroes, and the battle lines are being drawn. We have a chanc

The Gina Gee project is a show that my daughter created. She saw me making video, and been watching YouTube​ and decided to do her own thing. For the last year she and her sister Ms. Shasha have been recording video using up all of my storage space, and figured that it was time to support her. Her first video is about making Cream of wheat. She in a dramatic fashion microwave her breakfast and teaches the viewer. I believe that when our children show interest and dedication to something we should support them. This might be a phase, but I am trying to use it as what our ancestors call a "lure to Mastery". I believe that our children need to be taught skills and in this video project she will learn, acting, interviewing, editing, and story structure and story telling. All these are transferable skills that can be used in pursuit of her life's purpose. Of course she will get a write-up from me on our site,  at least until she ( hopefully) starts writing her own accompa

Here is a view of what goes on behind the scenes of GNJ's "That Ambrosia", come on in and  checkout part of the brewing process. For those who want to brew their own Jun, I am now able to provide SCOBYs. Hit me up also if you are interested in getting the super ginseng. This Ginseng drink will sit longer and have the root in it. This of course will be more expensive but if you know what ginseng does you know that it will be worth it. Right now this will only be available in the gallon, and half gallon, I'm still working out the price, but for those that are interested hit me up @ That Ambrosia . Peace, Power, Joy & 1hunidyears Don't forget to sign up for the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge  also be sure to link up with us on Blaqspot , a social network with us in mind. Gye-Nyame Journey, and Brother ha2tim is on the site and we are loving it, so join and support the creation of a Black Digital Territory.

Being a lover of folktales I   feel it is my responsibility to share a good one when I find one. Folktales, myths, legends, and stories are important to all culture because it is the main way that the culture is taught and passed from generation to generation. Folktales connect us to our ancestors and to learning like nothing else. Our brains are wired for stories, and it is a tradition that need to be brought back. Although story telling is a billion dollar industry, we have allowed this talent go dormant in our community, unless we are talking about unhealthy activities. So my friend here is a story that I was reintroduced to, and I thought I would share it. I am asking you for your help. I need for you to view the short video and help me decide which story is the biggest. I give directions in the video, please take the time to vote, and I will share the final results on the "Daily Toast", sometime next week. Remember be bold and take the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge , an

The African Yam for years was a purpose that our people lived for and with for years. Watch and learn how consuming this great tuber can help you health wise. It has a lot of benefits and fits right in with the African heritage diet. Peace, Power, Joy and 1hunidyears be sure to sign up for the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge

Peace FAM: Wasted resources are killing our community. Especially resources that we have control over. I am going to hit on some sensitive ideas in this article and the video so I need to warn you advance. I woke up and started thinking about the role of gender in a culture, and asked why were they important. Gender roles were established to help bring order in the culture. Each individual was assigned roles at birth, as well as from the community. These roles helped to advance the society. The interaction between the genders produced the life that enabled the culture to exist as well as the community that adhered to the role. Now in these days and times these roles have been allowed to slip into each other forming whole other groups of individuals. Now where you stand on this is your business, and is not part of my discussion, but it is something that I felt that I need to cover. We as Africans in America, also known as Black folks are in no position to be arguing about these gend

That's right I'm packing up some of my content and moving over to the BlaqSpot . Finally I have a spot made for us by us, and I am going to take full advantage. I'm planning to run adds, and introduce new products over there as well. Of course I will keep my territory out here, but I will be doing some real Culture Building on safe ground. Hopefully many of you will come and visit so that you can get some exclusive stuff. I wonder how many people over there will be willing to take the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge . I thought about building a network but the amount of work and skill it would take to get something like that working and keep it working was beyond me. So I salute the brothers and sisters that spearheaded this project. Now here is where I'm going to loose many of you, BlaqSpot  is not free. Now listen before you take your eyes off  the page, If we want to build we have to pay. Freedom has never been free, nor can it be handed to you. Freedom has to be bought

"There is no healthy person without a healthy collective, and there is no healthy collective without healthy persons." Great Ujima FAM: I hope yesterday was productive for you, right now I am sitting in Ujamaa reflecting back. Their are many things that i wished that I would have covered but I think the basic idea rings through. Family we have to begin to rebuild and embrace our culture. I state rebuild because we can't just grab some ancient information put it together and strap faith on it and feel we will be able to compete. A culture prepares an individual to compete and succeed. Right now I believe that we are following a cultural program that leads us to failure. This cultural paradigm that we follow miss informs us about the past, muddy up the present, and leaves us hoping for a great future. All of these elements are within our power to change, as well as rebuilding our culture. I created this video to discuss this issue, I hope you will check it out and let

Rediscovery of The Melaninated Circle By Mz. Traci (Pictures are taken from the internet and are not personal property of Mz. Traci) To buy and barter within your circle is to build your circle. This strengthens your circle. You begin to create an unbreakable circle that will allow you and those within your circle to not seek help or guidance outside your circle, that may cause destruction of the circle. The Melaninated Circle is a community of brown to black pigment skinned cultured people. Originating from the melanin definition meaning a dark brown to black pigment occurring in the hair, skin, and iris of the eye in people. Creating a circle of people in a given culture that will build a unity of people. This is necessary to get the black community back to the basics of depending on ourselves and not others. This is needed to uplift and build us stronger as a people. Many of our ancestors were forced to America. Once they were here they were brutally mistreated

We have to change our mindset about the world we exist in. We live here as if we are visitors or this planet, when in fact this entire planet is ours. When we start changing this mind state we can start moving as a group in the direction that we need. When we act as a beggar in the world the world treats you as such. Human rights cant be given, freedom can't be given, sovereignty can't be given, all of these must be taken. In order to take these things we have to activate the power of Kujichagulia. We have to re-establish a collective sense of ownership. The fact is that this planet is ours, and we have been allowing others to squat on our inheritance. We have been trained to not compete, and to be satisfied, better yet feel luck to come in last place. We believe other peoples myths, treat them as fact, and allow them to take hold of land, possessions, our children, and even our lives with a fight. No one has more right to the land and resources of this planet than you. The on

Peace family we take the breathing practice to another level by looking at the idea of the ryhtmic breath. This technique stretch us much farther as we reach for our goal. The best part of all is that the breathis totally free.

Peace FAM: I have been pushing heavy on the breathing and will continue to do so family. The breathing exercises that I am sharing and talking about will change your life. On this powerful day of Imani I discussed the retention of the breath. Family, breathing right not only contributes to your physical health it helps you with the other 4 parts of your being. I am stressing this in the blog, 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge , and especially those in GNJ's Warrior training (coming soon). Breath is the key that helps unlock the trauma, correct the body, clear the mind, and provide us with the energy needed to build the culture that a nation can spring from. I am saying that how we breath set us into a rythm that will either put us in time with oppression, or  freedom. Most of us are breathing in the rythm of slavery, and oppression. Now let's look at the retention of the breath. When you consciously hold your breath you are making an effort to take control of your your being. Bre

Great Kuumba FAM Although I am in Imani now I want to make sure that my readers have access to the information that I shared on Kuumba. We talked about nitric oxide and sex. Family the power of the breath is incredible, and we need to begin harnessing it for our personal and tribal "come up". When we learn to work with and eventually control our breath we can heal ourselves, lose weight, overcome stress, increase energy, and improve our sexual performance, and all this is free. It is just a matter of sitting down and breathing through our nose. Forcing ourselves to become conscious of a process that many of us overlook. Changing our diet, and other habits pale in comparison to just changing our breathing pattern. Start breathing through your nose, take the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge and change your life.

Peace FAM: Great Nia, right now I am actually in Kuumba just making sure that my readers get access to my video. I had to start blogging a day behind because it was taking a toil on me. Today I share how to release more Nitric Oxide into your system. Tune in and learn to release this powerful compound in your life.

NO NO NO Peace FAM: Great Ujamaa, today we are gathered to talk about the power of NO, not no, but NO Nitric Oxide. This is a powerful chemical that is generated with in your body. NO helps the body: Helps memory Asssist immune system Helps regulate blood pressure reduce inflamation improve sleep stregnthen senses increase endurance Realize that there is still reseaerch going on, so expect to hear more about this chemical soon. The Best part for us is that it is produced in the body, and we can influence its production. So listen in and learn what you can.

Peace, Power, & Joy FAM: I greet you in the name of Ujima, even though it is no longer Ujima. I feel that this video is a must see. In it I demonstrate the Complete Breath, and talk about the effects it can have on the "5" (IMESP). Family if you don't do anything but learn some of the breathing exercises that I will be sharing with you over the next few days, you will be able to take control of your health. Most people over look the power of the breath, but here at GNJ we don't. As a matter of fact we start with it. Today we hit the basics of nose breathing, and I demonstrate the complete and the cleansing breath. If you add nothing but these two breaths to your SelfMastery tool box you will be head and shoulders above most. The fact is that most people breath wrong which contributes to a lot of the ailments that are prevalent today. Diet is important, and water is more important, but breath is King. You can eat right, drink the purest of water, but if you are

Peace FAM: I am running into some powerful information about the power of the breath. I have been dealing with the concept of axe' in the breath for a long time, but now I have found scientific proof of the power of the breath, and even more importantly how the breath is taken in the body. My friends and family it has finally been proven that breathing through the nose is the best way to breath, but it has also been shown to help an individual over come or better control obesity, impotence in life as well as erectiel dysfunction, diabetes, insomnia, anxiety, depression,      cardiovascular issues, GI disorders, and etc.. Proper Nostril breathing  helps strengthen  the immune system. This is a simple process that each of us can do to take control of our health. Proper breathing is powerful enough to move you toward health. There is absolutely no reason  why anyone can not take advantage of this. It is free, it is relaxing, and it can get you high, what more do you need. For tho

Peace FAM: Great Umoja, let's take some time and talk about the power of steaming and how you can use it in your life to get healthier, and to make cooking easier. i personally cook everything in it. As a matter of fact I made my kids some eggs in it this morning. Of course they were hard boiled, but I have made omellets as well as poached. I cook my rice, quinoa, and etc.. I also take care of my fish in this contraption. My favorite thing to prepare though is beans, man I can prepare some beans in less than 2 hours and if they are soaked even sooner. By adding some extra water and vegitables I can make it a soup. The best part about the steamer is that I can warm up my veggies, and not kill or wash away the health benefits. So those of you taking that 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge  go to a thrift store or find one of your friends who love buying gadgets and only use them for a few times, and get it from their. I just want to stress that you do not have to go out and buy and bran

Peace FAM: Great Imani to you, and hopefully you are seeing the effects from joining me each day. When we celebrate our ancestors they celebrate us, and begin to be active in our life. Many of you will begin experiencing lucky incidents, but do not put it off on luck. These are ancestral intercessions, your ancestors are acting upon your life as you act upon theirs. Your thoughts of them provide energy, and life flows from energy. I have been told that our ancestors do not help us because they are starving. We have pushed to the back of our lives, if not pushed them all of the way out. When we toast, and pour libations, we send them axe' that they can use. As we continue this process we will begin to notice that small events that are happening for us will begin to grow. So stay on it with me and bear witness. Now today I simply wanted to share the importance  of Imani in the building of the Gye-Nyame Complex. Which I believe will be a major power move for us. We will have communi

     Peace FAM: Had to post rapidly and had no time to type a short intro, as I usually do. I had to take a trip to my birth place with my mother to receive her star on the South Ranger's Walk of Fame. After completing the journey I came home and went to sleep. I hope that you had the opportunity to check the video, and got the core of the message. I am not just talking about buying some property for making money. I am talking about purchasing property to grow a culture. Culture is like a plant, in that it requires soil to sprout. Our culture has been forced into a position of exisiting like wild plants. Wild plants pop up where they can, and if they pop up in someone elses yard, or garden (culture) they are immediately poisened or pulled up. This is why we need to purchase the land for our culture to sprout up, and grow strong. In that way we can cultivate it and increase the qualities that we need and get rid of the qualities that are undesirable. I believe that communities

Peace FAM: Great Nia, and welcome to GNJ. I was excited about this video, it came together in a dream. I began to question the idea of ignorance, and the role it plays in the life of my people. After reflecting I began to notice the role it plays in my own personal development. I have been held back because of my ignorance, or my ability to ignore. As a people we have been well trained in the art of ignoring. Ignorance when I think about it is an art, and has been perfected by certain segments of our family. Checkout the video, join the 21 Day Nguzo Saba Challenge , and be on the lookout for GNJ's 21 week warrior training click the link to stay in the loop.

Peace FAM: SelfMastery is about constantly looking at ourselves, and evaluating what we need , and what we need to change. This is a constant struggle, and it can be painful, but as our ancestor Amos Wilson taught us "It is a child that fears pain". So today I decided to look at the idea of unproductive behaviors. Do you have any?

Peace FAM: Let us escape the hood, by using the principles we have been blessed with, especially Kujichagulia, and Ujima. By using these principles and first redefining (Kujichagulia) who and where we are, we can then step fully into our power using Ujima. Ujima shares the day with the principle of Respect, Righteousness, and the law of Vibration.  By using the powers of this day we are able to overcome all of the obstacles laid before us. So checkout the video and let me know what you think. By the way DON'T BE SCARED.... Take the   CHALLENGE , and see what you are capable of in just 21 days.

Peace FAM: Today we toast the mighty principle of Kujichagulia. So lift your glass and let's call our ancestors home to stand by our side, in this battle for our Culture and eventually our nation. Unfortunately we have no homes to call them to, because many of us are inhabitants of a danger zone called the "hood". Many of us take pride in our ability to exist in miserable conditions, and we have narrowed the Black experience down to hoodism. The ability to define is the power that separates us from the beast of the field, but since we have not snatched this power back from those that would use toward our demise we exist in a unhealthy state. Man through time has been able to rise above his environment, and shape it to his liking. Unfortunately we missed this in our study of culture. We have allowed our enemies to define us and we have let our environment shape. Leaving us with the cancerous idea of the hood. Men through the shaping of environment form villages and comm
