You will gain more time for yourself because you won’t be maintaining your property.

Let Friday The 13th Be A Good Day!
Let Friday The 13th Be A Good Day! @ 1,680 words Yesterday was Friday the 13th and I am proud to say that it was a good day for me and I sincerely hope that it was a good day for you as well. It got me to thinking and I thought I'd write a little article because when I talked to a Borders bookstore manager to see about carrying my book of love poems, Dawn's Kiss, I reminded him that today was Friday 13th. "That could account for a lot of things," he replied.

Go Getters Go Out On A Limb
Go Getters Gotta Go Out On A Limb! @ 1,800 words Nothing ventured, nothing gained is a very popular saying to remind us that we must be willing to take risks in order for our dreams to manifest. And we must learn to trust and rely upon our intuition and those hunches and impulses and ideas which have a way of just popping into our head out of nowhere. I feel that such hunches are often messages from our soul and from our guides.

Let Us Dare To Dream Namaste! Let us stop and breathe in the sweet fragrances and beauty that Mother Nature so freely offers each of us and express our gratitude. Nature’s bounteous, colorful cornucopia reminds us that it is time to dream bigger. It is time to have our soul aroused, our magic awakened, and for our hopes to see the light of day. It is time to dare to dream because Dreams truly do come true. May we never forget that there was a time when our life was magical, abundant, and blissful. We were light of body and spirit and there was nothing that we could not manifest.

A Prophecy From A Seer That Helped Steer Me Upon The Spiritual Path
I believe that we are all psychic to some degree and most people have a memory or two or more whether they have shared them with anyone else or not. For example, we think of someone and the phone rings. As a matter of fact just a few minutes ago I was thinking about my friend Arielle in Indianapolis, IN. I was about to pick up the cell phone and call her when I got my little bell ring on my computer that announces incoming mail. I had an email from her. I believe that this kind of telepathic communication happens far more frequently than we realize.

If You Can Dream It You Can Achieve It
I wish you many blessings is one of the most powerful gifts we can ever bestow upon anyone. A blessing possesses its own special magic; one of its purposes is to open our hearts and lead us closer to our true “inner self” or soul. Contact with our soul helps us discover and realize our goals, hopes and dreams. The discovery of “self” (know thyself was a much quoted dictum of the early Greeks) is an exciting part of the journey we are all taking on the earth at this time, and is not one to be taken lightly.

Glimpsing The Divine
Divination is a fascinating art that has been around for a very long time. There are many types of divination; from scrying, reading tea leaves, a crystal ball, reading the palms of the hand, psychometry (the holding of a personal object and receiving psychic impressions, images and messages for the subject) reading runes, tarot, angel, native American, inner child, fairy, goddess, archangel, and many other types of cards as well as regular cards.

Celestial Fields Of Paradise
The roads are many to the celestial fields of paradise where and bliss dwell.

All travel the road of mediocrity; some for days or months; others for years or lifetimes. The detours of this road are many; each mile leading to thicker more obscure roads which further alienate the self from the self. This road leads to no destination.

The Amazing Magical Power Of Our Words And Feelings
I have read and heard so many times that that there is so much power in the spoken word and our feelings. I am reminded of a story I heard many years about a little old lady who had contracted cancer.

He stood quietly a few moments, letting her assimilate the sad news he had just been obligated to reveal to her.

On Love
This word is as misunderstood by people as is the purpose for life itself. People chase after Love incessantly as though it were a commodity one could possess. The moment you think you have grasped Love, she evades you, leaving your soul filled with emptiness and longing. Like the wind, Love cannot be seen nor possessed. To understand her you must penetrate the innermost depths of the heart then be willing to patiently wait for her to reveal herself. You must prove yourself worthy and purify your thoughts and actions before Love will unmask herself.

Plugging Away For Our Dream Fulfillment
If we put in the sacred labor, there comes a time when we really begin to get in the flow when it comes to manifesting our dreams. This is when things begin to really get exciting. For many of us, getting to this point can take a long time. I know all about that from experience. It's easy for an aspiring writer to say I want to write the all American novel. Actually from what I've heard people tend to say something like "some day I'd like to write the all American novel."

Wisdom and Wellness: Boundaries
This week I've been working with how much courage it takes, for those who are people-pleasers , to be authentic. It's a fact that you can't set a boundary to take care of yourself, and take care of the other person's feelings at the same time. For many, the prohibition against hurting someone else's feelings is (dysfunctionally) sacred, and hurting themselves is a given. I remember Esther Hicks who channels Abraham's teachings, talking about this and they said "pleasing you or pleasing me........I gotta go with me".

Fight Depression by Talking About it
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I work with people who suffer with depression.

Mood is one thing, but the same recurring thoughts about a situation are bound to keep the client tied to the same feelings about the subject, that’s why talking about it is so key.

Walking With Nose Breathing Only To Fight Stress, Aging and Low Body Oxygen Levels
Hundreds of medical doctors prescribe physical exercise with nose breathing to their patients these days. This is because of a tremendous difference and safety of nose breathing in relation to acute exacerbations, diseases and general health. Mouth breathing leads to exercise-induced asthma attacks, stroke, seizures, heart attacks, constipation, cramps, low oxygen levels in body cells, and many other negative effects.

Why Diaphragmatic Breathing 24/7 Is Crucial To Fight Obesity
Recent medical discoveries suggest that obesity and insulin resistance are caused by ... low levels of oxygen in body cells. When our bodies suffer from cell hypoxia (reduced O2 levels), our tissues increase production of HIF-1 (hypoxia inducible factor-1). And this is the chemical that directly leads to weight gain and obesity.

Obesity Is Defeated With Nose (Not Mouth) Breathing during Exercise
New medical research studies suggest that obesity has its roots in low body oxygen levels. Tissue hypoxia leads to elevated levels of HIF-1 (hypoxia inducible factor-1). This is the substance that causes insulin resistance and increased formation of adipose tissue (fat). A team of medical doctors from University of Texas Southweste Medical Center in Dallas (Texas) announced their discovery in the article "Hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha induces fibrosis and insulin resistance in white adipose tissue" that was published in 2009 in the Molecular and Cell Biology journal.

Medical Research: Cystic Fibrosis Is Caused by Tissue Hypoxia
New medical findings suggest that expression of the cystic fibrosis CFTR mutation gene is modulated, in a dose-dependent manner, by oxygen content in body cells. Reduced oxygen levels cause abnormalities in mucus composition leading to production of abnormally viscous and sticky mucus in various body organs. Medical studies also suggest that hyperventilation is the likely cause of cell hypoxia.

Why Strictly Nasal Breathing At Exercise Is Beneficial for Diabetes and Heart Patients
Decades of medical research and dozens of clinical studies have shown that patients with heart disease and/or diabetes have heavy breathing at rest. (You may find over 15 such studies on my website.) Instead of breathing 6-7 L/min (the medical norm), they pant up to 15-18 L/min at rest. Furthermore, numerous medical studies have clearly shown that development of diabetes and heart disease is based, on a cell level, on low body oxygen content. Tissue hypoxia is the cause of both conditions.

Medical Research Suggests Numerous Benefits of Nose Breathing for Exercise-Induced Asthma
Millions of people suffer every day from exercise induced asthma that leads to irritation and inflammation of the breathing passages (bronchi) of the lungs. There are several essential changes in the respiratory system due to exercise, if we compare exercise with quiet breathing at rest. These changes include greatly increased minute ventilation, losses of CO2 causing bronchospasm (shrinking of air passages - bronchi and bronchioles), overcooling and drying of airways due to large movements of air.

Dry Mouth in the Morning: Health Disaster
Up to 30-40% of modern people breathe through their mouth during sleep. Oral breathing is medically associated with various health problems, but this article is about the most fundamental abnormality caused by mouth breathing: reduced oxygen levels in the brain, heart, kidneys and all other body organs. Superficially, it seems that there are no differences between mouth and nasal breathing. We still get oxygen into the lungs and blood and expel toxic carbon dioxide.

A cup of tea to down it and back to bed I went! With food in my belly I hoped to sleep once again, but couldn’t, as I was still fully conscious.

Whether you are single, dating, in a pre-committed or committed relationship, married, separated, divorced or bereaved, the one thing we all share in common is a longing for happy and fulfilling relationships.
