“Remember that in every attack you call upon your own weakness, while each time you forgive you call upon the strength of Christ in you” ACIM lesson 62(3).

In my humanness, I have a habit of making judgments about people and situations, as well as judgments about myself and I’ve been working on loving instead of judging. Today’s lesson in ACIM really hit me. When we judge others, we are criticizing God’s creation, same holds true for judging ourselves.

It’s time to forgive myself and to love ALL creation as God does, without condition.

Be well!

It’s true.

Look for the beauty in people to have more of it appear. As you look for the good things in a person, you will be amazed, stunned, and wowed at what happens!

“We all experience the mundane nature of modern living,” says Dr. Glenn Geher, “It’s kind of embedded in our everyday lives and there’s not much that we can do about it... And we so often find ourselves framing tasks in our everyday lives as ‘obligations’ rather than as ‘opportunities.’ Given our mind’s capacity for flexibility and cognitive reframing, how about seeing life as an adventure rather than as a set of mundane hassles?”

We challenge you to look for beauty in everyday life adventures and see the opportunities of appreciation and love that comes from them!

My current practice is to live deliberately by choosing in each moment to live a fulfilling life instead of my previous practice of living by default and reacting to circumstances. How are you showing up for yourself?

News Flash! You are 100% responsible for your own life. That’s right. YOU are responsible for it. The universe gave you this life to do what you want with it and make it what you desire. So take responsibility for your life and show up for yourself. When you take responsibility for your life, you ...

We all could use a little more joy in our lives. Here's a practice that might help us develop our capacity for more joy.

Joy is a capacity we all have that can be trained and developed—It is a primary component of psychological well-being, encompassing moments of appreciation, enduring contentment, and a sense of confidence and gratitude.

What exactly does mindfulness mean? It's basically the ability to be fully present, aware of where we are, and what we're doing. Being present makes it easier for us to be less reactive and/or overwhelmed by what's going on around us.
Science shows that mindfulness helps with stress, fights inflammation in the body, and helps us better deal with our emotions.

A new study finds that being mindful can affect not only how you feel about the stressors of your life, but how you actively cope with them.

This is important information...

This research examined the association between eating red meat, poultry and eggs and the risk of developing lethal prostate cancer (which the researchers defined as either dying from the disease or having metastatic disease that had spread to other organs). The study was in a large group of 27,607 healthy men, of whom 199 developed lethal prostate cancer over 14 years of follow-up. The researchers calculated that men who consumed 2.5 or more eggs per week had an 81% increased risk of lethal prostate cancer compared to men who consumed less than 0.5 eggs per week.
The study was carried out by researchers from the Harvard School of Public Health, the University of California in San Francisco, Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Funding was provided by the US National Institute of Health. The study was published in the peer-reviewed medical journal, Cancer Prevention Research.

Arsenic in baby food? This is very alarming. Please be mindful to what you are feeding your children.

Eat whole fruit! It's good for you.

Stories about the harms of sugar have consumers wondering whether they should put the apple back on the shelf.

Beware of gmo foods.

In February 2015, just two weeks after the approval of the world’s first genetically engineered apple, the company responsible for its creation cashed in — to the tune of $41 million dollars, ($10 million upfront), all for a highly controversial product that most people clearly didn’t want.

Processed sugar is NOT our friend.

If sweet is sweet then what is sugar? Diabetes, cancer, dementia, depression, acne, infertility, heart disease. Doesn’t sound too sweet. The average American consumes about 152 pounds of sugar a year. The average American man weighs 195.5 pounds, the average American woman weighs 167lbs. In the 1960...

This is what I've been talking about. Let healthy food be your medicine. It can work wonders.

The rising prevalence and cost of Type 2 diabetes has doctors at Geisinger Health System turning to food as a form of medicine. They're prescribing free, fresh food to low-income patients.

This is interesting.

Know your food. Knowledge is power!

Eating pesticide-free may mean a diet with fewer strawberries, or at least eating their organic versions.

Posted this before, but it's worth repeating. Convenience may not always be the best option. Know your food!

Baby carrots, which are now one of the most popular carrot forms, were not invented until 1986 when a California carrot farmer created them to save some of the broken and misshaped carrots in his harvest.16 Baby carrots are not actually ‘baby’ carrots at all but rather are less-than-perfect carrots....
