2013 Week 47

Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
MOM
As many of you know, I was adopted at birth within my family.  My “grandmother” adopted me from her daughter.  Mom taught me all there was to know about hospitality, especially at Thanksgiving.  #1, Pumpkin Bread is a good treat.  And #2, there is always room for one more.  Always.  I have always loved having a “group” of people to share a meal with.  And they came, we had 20 people with us this year.  Jonny and I stood hand in hand watching everyone get in line and it brought a lump to my throat thinking of mom (who passed in January) and the all of the energy, and love that could be felt in that room in that moment.  What a gift she help me to understand, witness and know.  I would not be the man I am today if it were not for the love, sacrifices and hugs from my mom.  “Love is… My Mom!”

Holistic Health

5 Things you can do to start living a healthier life that do not involve diet or exercise…

I am not saying that diet and exercise are not good for you (in fact they need to be staples of what you do most every day.)


1.   Stop using toothpaste with fluoride.  Using holistic toothpaste that does not have toxic and harmful ingredients is so much better for the rest of your internal body parts.

2.   Our bodies are designed to sweat!  Stop using antiperspirant (and any deodorants, lotions, etc.) that contain aluminum.  Your body with thank you!

3.   Drink fresh water (and that is not for most people who live in the city!)  Most municipal water supplies have so many added harmful chemicals that just are not good for us: ammonia, chorine, fluoride, and… who knows what else.  The water is not pH balanced and is harmful both to drink and soak in for long period of time.  (In bath, use lemon oil and baking soda to balance water!)  Consider installing an RO filter system for your drinking water.

4.   Eliminate harmful chemicals in your home.  Would you drink your window cleaner?  Would you spray furniture polish on your pets or kids?  Hopefully not, they are bad for us, our environment, and hurt our ozone.  There is a holistic, safe, non-toxic solution for most every cleaning need you have.  Thieves is one of the best on the market, and there are others to consider.

5.   Your body can heal itself; when you give it plenty of healthy food, natural sunlight, clean drinking water, rest and insure you exercise.  That is all it needs.  Sure you will need help when parts break-which for most is not often at all.

HOLISTIC CARE
The key for us all to remember is that our bodies have healing powers by using natural holistic modalities which include: clear water, healthy foods, pure sunlight, plenty of rest and exercise/movement.

Not all grocery stores are created equal.  Each has products they are paid more to display.  The “natural” grocers do the same!  Again, read labels, be a smart consumer, user and self advocate!  I recommend:

2013 Week 46

I began these posts on the first Sunday of 2013.  Each Sunday I share a photo and word that represents what I am grateful for and brief message.

GRATEFUL WORD:
Gatherer  
I could be called a gatherer.  I gather people and make things happen.  This weekend we gathered donations, supplies and helpful items we most take for granted.  And then I gathered some people who did the same and we "built" blessing bags to give to those who need a sign of peace, love, compassion and a simple blessing in their life.  25 bags were made that had hats, gloves, juice, soap, shampoo, razor, safety pins, band-aids, female hygiene products, coins for phone calls, handy wipes, tooth brush, tooth paste, tshirt, socks, snacks.  

We will soon have this on the street to those whom we encounter.  Our 2014 goal is to assemble 300 of these bags to be given out at the Community Meals project in November/December of 2014.  (TO HELP with supplies or donations to purchase supplies, email me at info@inclusivelife.org)
