......the realization that everything we do, think, feel, and believe has an effect on our state of well-being.

Surprising News; Even as adults, we can grow new nerve cells. 
 Did you know that by the age of  50, we will have all exchanged the neurons we were born with in that structure with adult-born neurons? How we live and what we eat can contribute to either the growth of new cells (neurons) or stop their growth in it's tracks,
Here are just a few things that positively influence the growth of new brain cells:
  • Continued learning
  • Sufficient Sleep
  • Sex (you don't want to get carried away with this one and end up sleep deprived :)
  • Aerobic Exercise 
  • Calorie restriction of 20 to 30 percent
  •  Flavonoids, which are contained in dark chocolate and blueberries
  •  Omega-3 fatty acids, present in fatty fish, like salmon
Click the link below to watch fascinating Ted Talk given by Sandrine Thuret, filled with great detail and information on promoting the growth of these beneficial neurons:

Do you find yourself confused with all of the studies that keep surfacing? You're not alone.

Just take eggs for example. For years we were told that they were the "perfect" food, followed by years of​ "they are full of cholesterol- Do not eat them", followed by "dietary cholesterol doesn't increase blood cholesterol- they are good for you. In fact, ​they can help rebuild the myelin sheath around nerve endings for those of us with Multiple Sclerosis", followed by: "We've changed our minds....Don't Eat Them, they cause heart disease." 
"Dietary research about eggs has vilified and exonerated them, over and over."

May God always be at the center of my thoughts, my words, and my actions. 
Here are a few of my favorite inspirational quotes:

  • "Prepare yourself so you can be a rainbow in somebody else's cloud. Somebody who may not look like you, may not call God the same name you call God - if they call God at all.."  Maya Angelou
  • "I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God's help I shall succeed." Vincent Van Gogh
  • " Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres" Paul in his letter to the Corinthians

Meditation is widely accepted as a way to relieve stress. Many use it to support the practice of mindfulness. It helps if you can set aside ten to twenty minutes of "quiet time"- when you can be totally alone and undisturbed.
For me, it's early morning.
If meditation is new to you, you may find the guided versions below the best place to start. Though I've been meditating for some time, I still use them in some of my meditations because they have brought about some of my most amazing experiences.
​I hope you enjoy them.

“We search for happiness everywhere, but we are like Tolstoy's fabled beggar who spent his life sitting on a pot of gold under him the whole time. Your treasure--your perfection--is within you already. But to claim it, you must leave the commotion of the mind and abandon the desires of the ego and enter into the silence of the heart.” 
― Elizabeth Gilbert
