Ultimate Health with the Amazing Placebo by Vince DaCosta When you got out of bed this morning your heart was pumping. Without any conscious effort, it continues to pump. It may have been pumping for quite a while. Twenty years? Forty years? Fifty or sixty years? Doesn’t matter, because you’ve never made a conscious effort to make it pump. It’s all been done by your subconscious mind. It also makes your lungs breathe, and your digestive system work. What a miracle!r

Your thoughts can set you Free !
Mavis was a beautiful young woman, but she was in prison ! I worked with this capable and promising young woman for many years. Unfortunately, unde eath all that beauty lurked a sad secret. She had a “habit of thought” that she was worthless. That she would not and could not be successful. That she would not and could not ever be loved. That she was not worthy of anyone’s admiration and respect.

Geting the Best from People
Once upon a time long ago, when men rode to work on horses, and women stayed at home, there lived a very wise man. He lived a simple life, working long hard hours at his trade, mending the chariot wheels and fixing the shoes the horses wore. The sign on his little shop said: BLACKSMITH

Quit your Job and change your Life
The great majority of those around us see work and daily activities as unpleasant, difficult and boring, certainly not something to be grateful for. A few discover the joy of work and the peace and satisfaction that flows from their gratitude for the opportunity.r

That Elusive World Peace . . . Found !
Two thousand years after the birth of the Prince of Peace, we are still searching for peace. It seems that we still do not yet understand the prescription for peace. We continue to search through the logical avenues such as the League of Nations and the United Nations. But evidently the answer is not there. Maybe the answer is somewhere else. Long ago I read a story about Shangri-La.

A Life of Purpose and a Reason to Live
When I was about ten years old, I got lost! My Father did not send out a search party and my Mother did not call the police. I had not wondered into the woods by myself, nor had I run away from home. Actually I was at home. I was in a room in my own house. But I was lost.r

“Why didn’t they tell me this in school?” This is the questio I consistently hear from participants in workshops and seminars I conduct. They are surprised that some of the basic strategies for living a happy, successful and fulfilling life are never mentioned during school days. They enter the work world, thinking they are well equipped for the journey of life, only to find that important things are still missing.

HOPE . . . in the midst of Fear !
It’s so easy to ignore the roses and see only the thorns ! An unknown sage said it beautifully, “you can complain because roses have thorns, or you can rejoice because thorns have roses” We seem to be built in such a way that the thorns get our attention, while the roses remain in the background. In today’s world our attention is captured by the headlines that scream “crisis, catastrophe, the end” while next door in your community, there are some who are experiencing love and kindness, courage and hope.
