Mind-Body Connection
We get so used to our emotions telling us how to feel, that when we are made aware of the fact they are not US, are not in control of us or our mood and that they are just indicators to our environment, that we almost don’t want to reclaim our power. Why? Because it places an enormous amount of responsibility back into your consciousness.
The ancient system of health and longevity called Ayurveda divides the 24-hour clock into six blocks of four hours. Our body instinctively knows what is best for us during these segments of the day and night (when to sleep, eat, eliminate, etc.) and there is a four-hour block of time in our day when productivity is naturally highest. The answer might surprise you.
This technology (allowing us to study and confirm the connection between the mind and heart) and research is paving the way for a new understanding, or do I dare say a recollection of the sacred connection between energetic fields in our Universe. Specifically those of our sun and Mother Earth and how they each affect human consciousness and cognitive behavior. While this connection has been well known among the ancients and aborigines, mainstream science has only begun to ask the right questions in recent years.
Be mindful of your energy and intentions and as long as you come from your heart, it will show in your creations. It is when we surrender our power over to beliefs, other people, etc. that we literally are driving blind and allowing these outer factors to always keep us in either a subconscious or unconscious panic state on some level.
Research is showing that being happy may directly affect your health, even helping you to live longer — after controlling for lifestyle factors. Experiencing emotional well-being, along with positive dispositions like life satisfaction, hopefulness, optimism and a sense of humor, is associated with increased survival in healthy people, including reduced cardiovascular mortality. Here’s how to cultivate happiness…
Experiences, that is, everything occurring outside of yourself in our perceptual reality, is the stuff that we think “happens to us”. And while we consider our experiences to be that which shape and mold us throughout our lives, if we zoom out a bit and see the entire picture (pun totally intended), we see that it is our perceptions of those experiences that have in fact done the shaping. How we’ve reacted and responded to life is ultimately what determined what life threw at us next. Well, isn’t that curious? 🙂
Can love really make us healthier? Dr. Bruce Lipton shares a powerful insight.
You are more powerful than you can imagine, with much more control over how your life plays out than perhaps you realize. Ancient wisdom teaches us that if we were to understand our True Self, we would see that we are no different than the thing we are searching for (Gayatri Mantra). These teachings may […]
I’m struck by the wisdom of Kenny Rogers when he croons, “You’ve got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em . . . ” (lyrics are actually by Don Schlitz). He’s pointing to the fact that you need to know when to let things go and when to keep them alive. […]

Dr. Mercola shares scientific evidence that gratitude makes you healthier, happier and even more popular.

So, we can identify what our shadows are, and we now know where they come from, but how do we use them to grow and heal? Your shadows are parts of you, after all. Rather, you want to bring them to light, find out what they want from you now, and what you can do to heal them, so they no longer hold you back in areas of your life, but instead propel you forward.
The story continues . . . If you didn’t read the first part of the story, click here. Four Impossible Tasks So here’s Psyche in the same destitute place she started at but maybe worse because now she has had a taste of love and wants nothing more than to be back with Eros. She’s […]
when one is living in the Heart Space, they are connected to their mind, body and spirit at all times, and keep the awareness of what each needs at all times at the forefront of their consciousness. They face the world with compassion and love, rather than distance, fear or indifference.
Have you noticed how two people can experience the same or similar circumstances, yet they often come away with very different viewpoints regarding what happened? Most of us experience this sort of puzzling discrepancy when we were children and our caretakers described a different view of the world than what we felt had transpired. Before we learned any language, we humans automatically […]
