Its Been A While

Hello everyone

I'm sorry its been a while since I have written on my blog. It seems I start alot of things but do not finish enough of what I start.....I would say that is one of the reasons I do not finish projects. Are you someone like me? I have been trying to figure this out for so many years, Ive even asked friends, healers, therapists whats up with this and no one seemed to give me a answer. I guess I am not alone on this. One reason for starting a blog was for me to start something fresh and stick to it, while I guess not only did I let my self down but others. Just because followers to not check in does not mean I do not have anyone coming to read whats on my blog. It is a wonderful thing when you know you have followers who leave comments so you know at least theirs someone out their who may be interested. So if you are one please leave a comment so I know you are out their and also for myself to go on with writing in my blog not only for you but for me. I have so much information and want to share it, I was hoping by some chance theirs someone out their who cares enough to read what I have to say let me know if you are one..............Blessings, Laurie

Acknowledging What You Have Done

One of the things I see all too often in health seekers, including my past self, is the (negative) focus on what hasn't been done or achieved with body/health/weight as opposed to what has. It is so easy to forget as we focus on moving forward how far we have already come, how many strides we have already made and how extra-ordinary we really are... (in a good way!) And it is also all too easy to become self-critical and even self- destructive as we measure ourselves against what we perceive we "should" have achieved, who we think we "should" be or compare ourselves to others, real or imaginary, in any way shape or form. Remember, wherever you are at right now, it's all good, in fact it's "perfect" and it's where you're supposed to be - even if it doesn't look or feel the way you want it to right now. It is what it is, and all of us needs to learn to accept what is before we can move mindfully and successfully into the realm of conscious creation. So be at peace with where you're at because right now, it's where you are - and when you know where you are, and when you know where you want to be then and only then can you chart your map in a way that is far more likely to get you there. When we look at what we do have rather than what we dont we shift into another state of mind. A place that we feel good in and feel blessed. If you start your day with thanking God for all the good things in your life, your days will be so much more meaningful, and fun and when you are in that state of mood, its a good day. Blessings....and may your day be filled with sunshine

Dangers of Coffee and Caffeine

The health problems which caffeine can cause could fill entire books, and probably enough popular and medical journal articles to paper the White House, inside and out!
Included are such problems as accelerating aging, weakening the immune system, impairing digestion, and causing blood sugar fluctuations which contribute to weight gain and mood disorders. There are more than 208 acids in coffee that contribute to indigestion and acid imbalance. This results in buildup of toxic waste, cardiovascular diseases, auto immune disorders, arthritis, and rheumatism. Uric acid produced by the breakdown of caffeine can cause kidney stones and gout, and can aggravate prostate conditions. Caffeine and the acids in coffee also inhibit absorption of B vitamins and cause the urinary excretion of calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and trace minerals — all of which are essential for good health.
Women who drink coffee are more subject to osteoporosis and anemia, leading to fatigue and illness. And this is just the beginning!
That’s CAFFEINE, folks! Whether it be in coffee, cola, or any other beverage. Hardly something you would want to be pouring into your body by the multiple cup or bottlefuls each day, is it? I have seen great changes in my body after I stopped drinking 2 cups of coffee a day. The coffee was actually bringing me down instead of up like I wanted. I would feel tired, and if I drank Dunkin Donuts coffee I would even break out in a few rashes here and their. My body's and liver way of telling me I do not like this, I'm having a hard time to filter this. After a week of such fatigue my body had to learn to have its metabolism work on its own as the coffee was doing it for me when I was drinking coffee. I felt like a whole new person when I stopped. Their are lots of alternatives for those people who like the taste but want to wen them self's off of coffee, like Dandy Blend for one. Try to start drinking Green tea if you feel you still want some caffeine. It is so much better for you. Their are so many other good teas that will give you a lift. Try to drink good clean water 1/2 your body weight in water and see all the changes in your body, you will be truly amazed how your aches and pains will disappear and so much more. Next time I will discuss how important drinking clean pH water has to do with you living a healthy and happy life. Cheers....

"People dont care about how much you know, they want to know how much you care"

It's not where you go in life, It's who you have beside you that matters

You know this statement is so true! you could live in a little grass shack and all would be well if love filled that shack. Their is nothing more powerful than love, NOTHING. It is something we all need and want it is our being, our whole self that needs to feel love and be loved. When you love and respect someone for the person they are that is all that is asked of you, nothing more.

Live the Golden Rule: Which is treat others as you want to be treated.

In the bible it is in their as one of the beatitudes.

Lets face it most of us come from disfunctional families, what does that mean? well if you do not feel loved by your parents then that's pretty much it in a nut shell. Maybe they had a drinking and or drug problem, depressed, Never really showed they cared about anything, and the list gos on the problem came down on you, as you thinking it was YOU, not them. You were not ever really able to just be the kid you should have been and experienced what being a child was like without having to always be in a fear mode, or wondering why your parents did not show a great deal of love toward you. After years of trying to figure it all out, the only thing that really does matter in this life is that you learn to love yourself and do not expect someone else to do it for you or be that somebody. It has to be you. Know that you are part of God and God does not make mistakes, and mishaps. He& she loves you totally without no limitations, doesn't ask for nothing in return. Be the shining star you always wanted to be. Do not let anyone else tell you what you should become be what you want to be and express. I have counseled many on this subject and its a place we ALL tend to be weak in. Respect yourself, except yourself , we are all beautiful and do not let anyone tell you different even a parent. Most of the time it was because they were not shown love from their parents that is why they have a hard time showing you love. Forgive them and show them love, and you will have made a great change and deliverance for them to stop the cycle in the family generation that never experienced love.......

Blessings to you all. Laurie
