Feng Shui Ideas

I learned a poem about Christopher Columbus in grammar school once upon a time that went something like: 'In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.' That's all I remember about this poem, but, c'mon, to remember something so abstract from the second grade, it goes to show the power of rhyme -- especially as I am learning how this power can help to manifest our intentions.

Many traditions hold that when you pray or 'ask' for anything that will improve life (yours or someone else's), that those words should have both a cadence and some rhyme in order for them to be both effective and activate those intentions.

Today, why not explore your own empowerment and intone an affirmative adaptation from F. S. Shinn and the School of New Thought: 'The tide of destiny has turned for me today. Everything now begins to go my way.' Say this silently and aloud for nine days straight and then flow, baby, flow!

Beautiful Days of Summer

2008-06-24T16:02:00.001-07:00

As the Summer Solstice approaches and we reach the longest day of the year when the Sun is at it's zenith, we can get all hot and bothered some of the secret and wonderful uses of particular herbs. For instance, some traditions believe that at this time of year, if you want to banish all blues and bad luck, then you can take a small bag of both lavender and vervain and then place all your worries into it before burying it along with all your concerns as well. Other herbs, fruits and florals that have healing and magical powers at this time of year include wild thyme (thought to attract good health when burned or worn on the body while giving a great night's sleep when placed under the pillow at night), chamomile (a calming and relaxing standard) and carnations (sometimes prominently placed in medical centers to get the patient steady on their feet). There are many ways to celebrate this special and sacred time of year, even eating Sun colored or orange food and drink will align your vibe with the season. Always remember, 'when the heart is heavy the Sun helps make it light

Also remember to have love and compassion in your heart for life and that includes the earth as it is the Creation - animals and people.

Parks to watch and enjoy children

Remember those carefree days of Summer when you had not a care in the world.

When the warm days Summer is here
You start to think of love
Of children playing in the parks
And birds flying up above.

The meadowlarks are chirping in the tree
The soft breezes blow
The gentle sound of children laughing
With faces all aglow.

Opportunities fly by while we sit regretting the chances we have lost, and the happiness that comes to us we heed not, because of the happiness that is gone.

In nature you can see reflected God's nature. But you can never really know what the future will hold or what is in store.

You may know to a certain extent and plan things that bring you happiness but as God is in control of all he may have plans for your life tha you don't know of.

To Make your Life Better

Let your angel guide you to find the peace and quiet in a life that is often filled with stormy thoughts. There may be too much going on that its hard to find a sense of rest. Or are you blocking out the Spirit of love and peace? Don't do that. Let there be a freeness an a sense of goodness in your heart

Where you sit in your home, make it a comfortable place and try and not spend too much time in front of the TV. If you have to work, have fresh air as much as you can by having an open window or going out on breaks. One other thing that is important is eat fresh foods often as well as making sure it is awholesome diet.

Plenty of fresh water to help renew your spirit. Water is something that people lack and have a tendency to drink water that has no added flavor. Drink waster that is cold and refreshing should help you face your day. Coffee is fine sometimes but wouldn't it be better to drink Green Tea?

Include a refreshing shower or a restful soak in the tub to help eliminate your worries from your day or to start your day.

Meditate on God's word and take time to pray for others. God will bless your life and the direction you want to take will seem to flow more smoothly.
