Well here I am again, after an absolutely fabulous week-end. But then I am always here. In my last message I mentioned to you that nothing is more important than that you feel good. Actually I have referred to the importance of this in every one of my messages. What is most empowering is for you to realize that you have a choice. You always have a choice and the more often that you turn your atttention away from something that is not making you feel good and concentrate on a good feeling thought, the more easily that you will be able to do that. With practice it will become natural to choose a better feeling thought.
Let me give you a tip. When you are NOT feeling good then focus your attention on something that evokes a feeling of love. It can be the smile of a loved one, the color of a beautiful flower, the smell of freshly baked bread – the possibilities are infinite. When you go to that good-feeling place then your heart expands. See your heart opening right up and radiating out loving energy. As you do that, you will be overcome with a sense of love which is the exact opposite of a not-so-good feeling. It has been scientifically proven that your heart is much more than a simple “blood pump”. It is a processing centre that communicates with the brain influencing its function as well as most of the body’s major organs, ultimately determining your quality of life.
Not-so-good feelings are usually fear based and often triggered by a sense of lack which your thoughts have created. Your head wants you to look at what is and if you do that then you will only attract more of what is and if what is does not make you feel good then fear kicks in and now you are really in that not-so-good feeling place. Fear shuts down your immune system and this in turn leaves you open to disease.
I know that this sounds very simplistic and although simple it is not easy to do. Having said that, if you can train yourself to make the choice, to choose good feeling thoughts, then the effect on all aspects of your life, will be positive. The choice is yours!
Yesterday I told you that in order to be completely in your power you need to pay attention to how you feel and always aim to go to that good-feeling place. How to do this, you may ask. I will try to illustrate with an example.
Let us suppose that I am “acting up” and you are not able to get me to respond in a way that you would like (or have been told or read somewhere) that I should respond. So you become anxious. You judge yourself. You don’t feel good about yourself. The not-feeling good is a sign. It is a sign that your higher self does not agree with you. In other words, you are being told that all is well, that you are doing fine! And that you should go back to a good-feeling place, which means to connect with that higher self which some call universal intelligence or God. It does not matter what name you give to this entity. It only matters that you acknowledge that is as much a part of you as your physical body.
So … take a deep exaggerated breath and turn your thoughts to something that brings a smile to your face. It can be something very very simple like thinking about my smile or about the sound of the birds chirping early in the morning or the taste of your favourite ice cream melting in your mouth on a hot summer day.
Think of anything, anything at all. And the more you practice this, the easier it will become and all of a sudden the curved balls that life throws at you are all a piece of cake. Feeling good – that is the only thing that you need to remember!
I hope that you do not consider me too sassy for having told you in the recent past to just relax, and let go of any fear or anxiety about ANYTHING – about how you are doing as my mommy or anything else that may be a part of your life at this moment. Maybe I can try to explain why I say these things.
You may recall that I had the audacity to tell you that you (and all of us) are so much more than this physical body; that you are a part of the supreme being that keeps this universe running in perfect order. For the sake of simplicity I will call that greater part of each of us our higher self. This higher self is what makes each of us eternal. It is what makes you loving and a loving person is totally accepting of all that is and if you are accepting of all that is then you feel good and all is well. It is that simple!
Is this making any sense? When you are not feeling good, like when you are anxious or afraid, making your tummy feel funny, then you are being told that what you are thinking or doing does not match with your higher self; that you, this physical you, at this moment, is not connected with that greater loving eternal you. It is a sign and you should pay attention: pay attention to it the way that you pay attention to road signs.
Relax, smile and trust in yourself. Truly believe that all is well. Every time that you do this you will connect. Try it. I promise that you will like how it feels and the situation that has created the anxiety will melt away.
Consistency is vital to successfully teaching your youngster right from wrong when disciplining them. It keeps tiny misdeeds and bad behaviors from later becoming bigger misdeeds and worse behaviors. You have got to stand firm and mean it when you say, “turn off the TV now”or “no dessert after dinner because you did not touch your dinner. ”
Consistency teaches your child there are definite results for misdeeds and incongruous or unacceptable actions or behaviors. Inconsistency when disciplining makes you directly accountable for your children’s misbehavior and doesn’t teach them the best way to be accountable for their actions. It’s also very important that both parents have the same approach to parenting. If one parent is too strict and the other one is too indulgent|forgiving|lenient}, the kid will key into that and try to manipulate the situation to their advantage.
Folks must agree on disciplinary action ahead and make a pledge to each other to be clear-cut in implementing and following thru with the results. This may be especiallyly tough if the child’s parents are divorced. Though you may not be together anymore, it’s critical that you parent on common ground. misbehavior are well accepted ahead.
Any disagreements between parents should be done out of the child’s range. Consistency is about being committed and standing firm, even when doing so is very difficult or exhausting. Your child will consistently test the boundaries and push the envelope with you to see if there’s any play in those results. By standing firm you are showing teaching them to accept responsibility for their actions.
One of the most significant things in a person’s life is their family. It is because of the people that we love that we accomplish the things that we do. The family decides how we spend our time on a daily basis. The image that the general public has of us is created by our family. Since they have such a major impact on how we live, they have the ability to impact how fit we are.
If you are surrounded by people that you love, tasks tend to be less daunting. You will find yourself able to do things that you didn’t know you could do when you have the love of people close to you to help you along the way. The birth of a child creates many new and exciting things in a person’s life. Nine months of carrying a child can lead to additional pounds on a girl’s frame. And every man feels the sympathy pains for his partner and adds some weight too. After the birth of a child, the new parents no longer seem to have any extra time available to lead a healthy lifestyle and find it hard to get rid of the extra pounds that have been added. That does not have to happen if the people involved choose not to let it happen by concentrating on all the important things in their life. It does not have to be done alone. By working together and splitting the workload, the parents can exercise. Even though it is harder to do, cooking meals at home instead of dining out is a much better way for a couple to be healthy and to share time together. The family that strives to attain the same things is a much happier and healthier unit, and that can’t be replaced by anything. By having people you love around you and helping you along the way it is much easier to live healthier.
As your children get older, they can also be included in any fitness routine that a family has. A family can participate in a lot of different things that can be fun and burn calories at the same time. The exact exercise that is done is not what matters, it is the times that you spend with each other that will be remembered. Another way to involve the whole family in exercising is to get a fitness video.
The way that you exercise is not important, what is important is to do it as a family. The benefits of exercising and eating right are well documented. To do this with a group of people you love is a bonus. The biggest benefit is that you will have a lot more time to spend with each other.
Do you remember your child smiling back at you when you let his bicycle for the first time himself? Did you remember to put on his safety helmet? Although it’s reality that many kids find it uninteresting to wear safety helmets and knee covers, there are methods which you can make your kids like them. You can make your child put on a Helmet cover to ensure maximum safety together with complete fun. Helmet covers come in numerous striking colors along with many cartoon themes that would attract to your child. They are made of fabric that’s comforting to the child, thus he can enjoy wearing it. In any case, protection of the child should be your priority.
There are numerous types of injuries that a child can face, while playing outside. In such cases the most essential thing is supervision either by school staff or by parent. Falls are a common source of injuries for children. However there are a few other dangerous mishaps like cuts, scrapes, bruises, burns, etc. Active children are vulnerable to such risks. However, playing with your child will by example teach avoidance of potentially risky situations. A simple inspection of the play area and the equipment used for playing will eliminate potential accidents.
Quarreling and bullying can be discouraged at home with siblings and thus teach respect of other children. This is an excellent way to help your child learn acceptance of others and this build a strong self-confident character. Be involved in the education of road safety rules when teaching your child to ride a bicycle.
When a child learns basic personal safety rules, he develops self-esteem and confidence during the process. It also greatly adds to his character training him to become an accountable citizen.
There are many reasons that a person can find themselves overweight. The way we balance all of the demands on our time can be a major factor in the shape that our body is in. The exact reason that someone finds themselves overweight is usually not just one thing but a combination of several. One factor that many people have to deal with is genetics.
Being overweight is something that we share with out kids. Some people say that there are fat genes that make everyone in a family struggle with weight issues. There are other reasons behind a group of related people to be fat. There are many things that a family does that can cause the weight problem. The things that the parents do which add pounds to the body are mimicked by the kids. If one person in the family decides that they need to eat a dinner consisting of fast food every night, then all of the family will eat this. All of the members of a family have to deal with the negative aspects of activities that are sedentary in nature. Families that share bad habits can also learn to break the bad habits together.
There are many ways that the family can work to get fit together. Parents can take their kids in the backyard and throw a ball around. Getting outside as a group can be as simple as going out to a local park. A family will benefit not only by getting healthier but also by spending more time together in a positive matter. When it is raining play some games indoors that involve moving around. Whatever a family chooses, they need to make the time available to exercise on a regular basis.
The next factor to consider is controlling the food that is being consumed. Dining at restaurants is nice, but it is better to eat dinner together at home more often. Eating the right foods that have less calories will be much better for the family than some of the other foods that you were used to eating. Make the serving portions smaller when serving the food. In order for everyone to get fit and trim, everyone needs to watch what they eat and how much they eat. A family can support each other and help keep them from making unhealthy choices. If all of the people in a household are watching what they eat, there is no need to have foods that they are trying to avoid available. There is no need to buy bags of chips and bottles of sodas if no one is going to eat them.
The whole family working to get healthy provides a tremendous amount of support that is hard for people to find elsewhere even on web sites like the biggest loser forum, where people who are trying to lose weight often turn to when they need help in dieting. A family that is working together to lose weight will understand what each individual is going through and provide the help when it is needed. It is much easier for a family to reach their goals when they can work as one unit instead of individuals.
It is very common for children to be fat when their parents are also fat. But, there is nothing that says that the way a family looks has to remain the same. If a family can sit down together and find the resolve to change the bad habits that they have, they can get healthy together.
Well here we are again my dear mummy,
Today I would like to share with you a little “trick” that will bring everything that you could possibly imagine into your like and that little trick is called feeling good. Nothing is more important than that you feel good because feeling good means that you are at one with that bigger you, that part of you that goes far beyond your physical body. Feeling good means that you are relaxed; it means that you are happy with where you are and with what is going on in your life. After all, just think about it. Right now, in this moment, is there anything that you can do to either change where you are or the situation that you find yourself in? I think that you will have to agree with me that the answer is NO. You may be able to change it later, or tomorrow but not this moment. So, if there is nothing that you can do then you may as well make the most of it and the best way to do that is to feel good. You are the only one that can do that. It is an inside job and wow is it ever powerful.
Feeling good is not that difficult, if you practice. Every time that you are not happy with anything that is going on at the moment then just stop and think of something that makes you feel good. You will be amazed at how quickly the situation that was not feeling so good suddenly appears to be more acceptable, less significant and by defusing it with good feelings you are in a much better place energetically. Your face is relaxed. You are naturally smiling and your body just feels like flowing water. Right? Just try it! This is where the perfect parking spot appears; this is where the traffic jam unfurls; this is where synchronicity and serendipity occur. It is at these times that one hears “it was like magic” There is NO magic or perhaps I should say that when you feel good then it is ALL magic.
Relax, feel good. I love you!
My dearest mummy,
I have made some reference to who we really are but it is so very important to understand this, if we are to have fun together in this experience called life. More than these physical bodies we are first and foremost, energy, vibrational energy and it is this vibration with which we communicate. So it is not WHAT you say but what you THINK that I pick up. We all communicate vibrationally. Would you believe that I started to pick up your vibrations, your thoughts, your moods, all of those emotional feelings (both positie and negative) while I was still in your womb? So even though I cannot yet speak, I understand what you are thinking and what you are feeling. If you feel anxious, worried about me, wanting “to do” in order to make it better then I pick up your anxiety. I pick up your fear or concern and that in turn has an influence on how I start to feel and therefore behave.
When I fist emerge into this physical being, I am very connected and aware of who I really am: I am the pure essence of source energy which you may call God, universal intelligence or whatever name makes you feel comfortable. I am invincible, confident and certain that all is well and that I am perfect just as I am. BUT everyone around me is on the alert as to what could be wrong and I am prodded and poked. I pick up all of these vibrations and within minutes of my arrival I start to connect to these energies and react to all that is vibrating around me. The energies of you and everyone else in my immediate environment affect how I start to feel about me. So worry not my dear mummy, all is well; and always remember that your thoughts and feelings are transmitted to me, so always look for the good in me, in you and in our surroundings. I love you!
Good Morning mummy,
It is very important that you learn to RELAX, especially that you learn to relax into your role of mummy. Let go of all fear, of all anxiety. You are doing just fine! Always remember that … You are taking care of me in a perfect way. There is really not anything that you can do in taking care of me which would make you any better than you already are BUT I will give you a few “tips” as we get to know each other by chatting here.
