Perceptions...

"There is no such thing as a bad day. There are only days when our perception is off balance."

I sometimes like to remind myself of that when things seem to be going 'less than optimal'- you know those days when everything that could possibly go wrong does and you find yourself in a such a frenzy that you begin to create negative experiences with your own flustered energies. When that happens, try to make a conscious shift in your perception and try to see the good in everything that happens. Did you just lose your cell phone that is still on silent from the meeting you were in yesterday? You spend 15-20 min trying to find it and when you do, it is lying next to your one of your favorite turquoise earrings that you thought you lost in the supermarket over a month ago! Are you angry that you are now late for work or happy to find your cherished jewel? Is your glass half empty or half full??? Maintaining a conscious approach to how we perceive things makes every experience a little better.

no more organics???

I received this letter in my inbox today from Jinjee Talifero of thegardendiet.com and I found it to be quite alarming....

"I usually don't mix my occasional activism with this newsletter as I like to keep things positive in here - but this issue seems like it could use as much help as we can give it...I'm not abreast of the seriousness of this issue -- I haven't done the research myself...but I don't think it could hurt to let our voices count for organics and against GMOs! According to this report, legislation is taking place to further support GMO farmers and allow them to contaminate organic crops with their genetically modified strains, which happens through cross-pollenation as the wind carries their GMO pollen to nearby organic farms...essentially turning that organic produce into GMO produce also...So, by signing this online petition you can send a message to help keep our food organic! We only have til Wednesday at 5:00 to get this signed."

I hope that you all will sign this petition. I don't knowabout you, but I believe that we should have the option of purchasing uncontaminated food. To sign the petition, CLICK HERE!!!

'wee' reiki...

After lunch I peeped in on my little ones (who were supposed to be napping!) and watched as my four year old 'gave reiki' to my one year old. She hasn't actually been attuned to reiki, but it was such a beautiful sight. She was very attentive to her sister and I couldn't help but giggle as she said, "Stop moving Zoe. I'm trying to give you reiki!" Wee people are so amusing and VERY impressionable.

I found a nifty chakra printout online at rainbowmedicinecircle.com that some of you may find interesting. It goes beyond the traditional 7 chakras and introduces the chakras that extend our crown and rooted beneath our base. I also found it very interesting that the heart chakra was broken into three seperate energy centers. You can access the handout HERE. I personally love the enitre Rainbow Medicine Circle website. They offer all kinds of unique goodies. 

Bubbles!!!

Hello!!!!!!!! I started my day blowing bubbles and watching my little ones scramble across the room trying to catch them. What a wonderful start to a wonderful day! Imagine what a marvel bubbles are to a one year old. I hope to share in that marvel forever. I absolutely loooooooove being astonished by life :-)

Speaking of being astonished, I want to share this video about natural healing from  Dr. Thomas Lodi. Dr. Lodi confonts an audience of his peers and presents a 'cure' for disease: STOP CREATING IT!!!! I wish this could be shared with every doctor (or person in general) on the planet. I hope that you find this video to be enlightening enough to pass it on to everyone you know. If  you can't access the video through this email, you can view it HERE!
