Fall Season Feng Shui Idea

I think I love this time of year the best (I say that at the turn of every season though!). I love the crisp, cool mornings and how the days are starting to slightly shorten while darkness descends just a bit earlier each evening. And I love all the beautiful seasonal fruits and vegetables that are available for the novice cook like me. Whenever I start to think about tinkering in the kitchen, I remember cautionary advice that a sage Shui master once gave me. He said that it was considered taboo in almost every Asian tradition to bang or hit utensils on the side of the pan while cooking, as this changes the extraordinary energy of the food. He also warned that you should never, ever swear or curse while cooking, as that will infuse the cuisine with churlish and negative energies. He offered that when anyone is cooking, they should stand and be grateful to the food for the gift of nourishment that it will bring, and for all the activity it allows our cells to perform in support of our being. He told me to pray over each meal, not only thanking my higher power, but also thanking the spirit of the food itself. I thought this such a beautiful teaching, and aside from a few sailor-like slips where the cursing is concerned.

Forgive Health and Joy restored

Forgiving someone who wrongs you from way back in your childhood makes it possible to go ahead with peac joy and a sense of freedom
When you still can't forgive.

Perhaps you or someone you know has gone through all the "forgiveness steps" we have written about over the past few days but still can't find it in their heart to forgive someone who has hurt them deeply.

One reason for this is when we are overreacting. We do this when what someone has done to us triggers anger and hurt from past events that have never been resolved. Because of this, it is very difficult (if not impossible) to forgive someone for something that happened in the present when we haven't forgiven someone else for what happened in the past.

For example, while this is perhaps an extreme case, James Townsend tells about Mildred McWhorter who "has worked for nearly thirty years with troubled families at a mission center surrounded by dilapidated houses in north Houston, Texas. She is known as 'Miss Mac' to folks in the area.

"Once she spotted eight-year-old Gilbert walking with his hands over his head. When asked why he was doing that, Gilbert replied, "I can't tell you. My mama did it."

"She found that large sections of skin under each arm had been rubbed away and blood was running down Gilbert's side. Eventually Miss Mac learned that Gilbert's mother had put a burlap sack over his head and arms. She had tied his arms over a clothesline where he hung for hours. If Gilbert cried, his mother would beat him with a broom or pull his hair out. She did this because Gilbert reminded her of her father.

"Miss Mac spent months working with this troubled family, which contained nine children. When family hurts and resentments go unresolved—as they apparently had between Gilbert's mother and her father—they can be passed on to hurt the next generation.²

In working with hundreds of divorcees in recent years, I have observed that only a small percentage is willing to be ruthlessly honest with themselves to see and admit what they contributed to their failed marriage. Most want to blame their spouse entirely for the breakup. They simply don't see or even want to see how much their over-reaction caused by unresolved relationships (especially with one or both of their parents) was a major contributing factor (or even the primary cause) of their failed relationships.

It is no wonder that the Bible "hammers home" the tremendous importance to forgive everybody who has ever hurt us—whether it was yesterday or on day one of our life. This is not an over-statement, for a child who was rejected from birth or hurt in childhood has deep pain that needs to be confronted and resolved through to forgiveness in order to fully live as an adult. It is a fact of life that hurt people hurt people. Thus every hurt needs to be healed and every "hurter" needs to be forgiven—not so much for their sake, but for the hurt one's sake and that of their loved one.

End of series ... remember forgiveness is a process, not a "quickie" event! It takes time to work through and resolve all these issues we have discussed over the past few days.

Suggested prayer: "Dear God, please help me to see if any feelings of hurt and anger I have are overreactions to past unresolved conflicts and, if so, please lead me to the help I need to resolve these issues. And then, please help me to forgive any and all who have ever hurt me. Thank you for hearing and answering my prayer. Gratefully, in Jesus' name, amen."

How to be Energetic And Healthy: Excercise for the BrAiN

Excercise for the BrAiN

Guess what? Much of the overall physical and mental decline
we experience
between the ages of 30 and 70 has more to do with sedentary lifestyle
than with
the aging process. Exercise slows the deterioration of a host of bodily
systems. It helps reverse impairments in sleep, sexual and
cognitive functions as well as loss of muscle mass and bone strength.

Exercise also has a dramatic effect on the brain. It's
dismaying to learn that the human brain begins to
lose tissue early in the third decade of life. This loss

of tissue is closely related to declines in cognitive
performance. Excercise to the rescue! Aerobic
exercise has been found to boost cognitive
ability by stimulating physiological change
s the brain. Many studies show similar results,
better cardiovascular fitness with produce a
brain that is more stable and adaptive to change.

Whoa there!!
