Star and her organization, Sirius, are expecting a French film crew in late January. The crew will be documenting Sirius work with "pod communities." Star explains this in the YouTube above.
Six pregnant women are planning to arrive in the area in the next few months to give birth in the ocean with dolphins. My daughter and I will be traveling to Hawaii in January to work on the Safe Baby Resolution.
Check out Planet Puna for more information on the Domestic Harmony Initiative, the dolphin research and the Safe Baby Resolution.
Star Newland, Dolphin Researcher
Dolphin researcher and community activist Star Newland has passed away at 65, according to her son Tiger Stanley and her friend and business partner Michael Hyson.
Star, who also called herself Paradise Newland, advocated to change or “sculpt” society’s language, to focus on clarity. “Language sculpting,” she said, “was the creation of coherent realities through the conscious use of language,” Michael explained.
Through her efforts, “Say yes to Domestic Harmony” stickers are adhered to the bumpers of all County of Hawaii vehicles, including Hele-On buses and marked police vehicles and are expected to adhere on U.S. Navy ships, according to Michael.
Star was also involved in the natural birthing movement. Specifically, she advocated for gentle birth, water birth, and dolphin attended birth. She was such an advocate for pre-birth dolphin contact, so much so that at one time she had to defend herself against Child Protective Services, seeking to take her child away from her for choosing to give birth on a beach where dolphins could be present.
