In Memory

9/11 just past. The day we remember that changed the lives of the entire planet. As I prepared for my flight home, on 9/10, I buckled my seat belt and went to turn off my phone reminding me of that day. Thoughts poured into my mind of: this is what many of those passengers did, they called their family one last time, and they quietly sat in their seats just waiting for the plane to take off from a busy airport to get to their next appointment. Sobering. That could of been me or any one of us.

My thoughts then turned to think of the incredible courage to face the terror, and for their families that have kept us remembering such sacrifice. None of us really knows what happened those last few minutes or seconds. We have learned so much of ourselves as individuals and as a nation. With respect and honor to them, if we listen real close to the unseen, I believe we could hear what is still being said: ..."Live in peace,...Live in love,...one to another."

Preventative Care

Time to put a little physical thought on this blog.

Just learned about an acquainance who has ovarian cancer the size of a football inside. Wow. Sobering news as she is only in her 50's.

Our body talks to us every day of our lives. Have you tuned into it's frequency yet? I know a incredible radio announcer that would be the perfect voice inside to announce what needs our body has. His voice is incredibly energetic and forward speaking. It's a voice that this woman needed.

So many in her group of friends just shun off the thought and action of taking care of their body. Man it's the only one we have for now. Why don't people heed the holistic information out there in preventative care? Why do we continue to look the other way and not honor our body's requests.

One of my theories is that we are as a society addicted to the medical model of taking care of our body. Addicted to the co-pays, addicted to the almighty doctor who is fed information through a funnel that only treats the symptoms.

I believe my theory is in a large way true. Just on my way to the airport a young man driving the shuttle was verbalizing his frustration over the way medicine treats you. For example not educating the patients on the side effects of medicine. In his case he was suffering from constipation. The doctor gave him some fiber...not a bad joice. One mistake...didn't tell him to increase his water intake. Result more constipation more pain.

Is that the word to describe it all...constipated minds?

Share your thoughts...because what you say is important.

Life goes on..

because a precious woman cares. I received an incredible gift today. It was a gift from a woman I never met before except over the phone. She holds teleclasses on www.universityofmasters.com.
In case you don't know about this place...it's a place to get educated with open minded people of the world. Check it out my friends and readers. I had sponsored Arvee Robinson in the National Lymphoma Society's LA Marathon and currently do for her future runs. Arvee Robinson is an internationally known speaker.
Need some help speaking? www.passionatelyspeaking.com . Awesome presentation. She gives her heart and thrill for speaking in such a duplicateable way. She spoke at a free event sponsored by the CEO of University of Masters, Pamela Harper this weekend.

The gift she gave me....the joy of having my father's name on the back of her shirt. My dad passed almost three years to the day from non-Hodgekin's lymphoma. He was a brave man who fought the disease for years over expectancy. Well he lives in my heart still of course, and now he is honored on a shirt of a woman who carries on the memory of life and the fight for life of those affected, her brother, and my dad. Life is good with the great company you keep. Run, Arvee, run with the power of love my dad and your brother has. Thanks for keeping my father's memory in your passion.

Learning from the Masters

Out in CA traveled from PA just to be around the most loving, forward thinking people on the planet. My good friends at University of Masters and Jerry Hart from Hart Creative Marketing just loaded me up with some information to explode my business to the universe.

This blogging deal is a step by step process. Where in the universe have I been to wait this long to start it. Well, I am ready and the teachers are here.

What does this have to do with Wellness? Are you open to step over the chasm like Harrison Ford in his movie Raiders of the Lost Ark? When there wasn't any possible place to put a foot except thin air, he takes the step of courage to find that a rope bridge appears for him to safely cross and get the Holy Grail.

The state of your spiritual and mental wellness will determine whether or not you will choose taking that step into a journey to deepen and prosper your life. Having the feeling of being a rut just a few years ago I started taking baby steps. Chris Gardner stated.."Baby Steps Count too" in his book "The Pursuit of HappYness". Then a year down the road I met the right people to be able to take quantum leaps into an incredible world of peace and health in my life. Wow..I did it. I did it because I found I had lots of help from the seen and unseen world.

Now, I'm learning how to give ME over the internet. I said Yes. You know, Yes is a powerful word. Have you tried it to create more in your world? How did it work for you?
