When you focus only on the good in a person, you may be amazed what your new focus reveals.

Don’t try changing someone, as it’s a waste of time. Just thinking about wanting to change someone in itself means that you think they aren’t good enough. These are thoughts full of judgement, resentment and disapproval.

Think thoughts of appreciation, gratitude or love, otherwise your negative thoughts will bring nothing else but separation between you and that person.

Final Thought:
Remember, we all mirror each other. If there is someone you resent or do not like, ask yourself, what is this person showing me that I don’t like about myself.

Interesting really. Makes one wonder what goes through the minds of some people don’t you think?

I’m really not one for going out to pubs, clubs or bars anymore, but last night I went out with a friend. By the time I made up my mind to join her, it was 9pm and by the time we got into town it was almost 10pm. I would have thought it’s a good time to get to a Bar, but as a non-drinker, to me there is never really the right time. As I hardly go out, I totally forgot that at that time most people are already on ‘another’ planet.

It’s been almost 2 years now since I haven’t had any alcohol and needless to say, to watch how people behave after a few to many, makes me think it was a well worth decision. Alcohol initially acts as a ‘pick-you-up’. But, it’s addictive. It’s a drug, a mood enhancer, a depressant - and you see some people turn from Jekyll to Hyde. Quite sad really what alcohol can do to you if you let it control you.

So what’s your views on this? Any experiences you like to share? We’d be interested in hearing about it.

Getting older doesn’t mean getting old. We do not have to accept the traditional understanding that aging means declining strength, health and quality of life. We have a choice and we can all choose to maintain and create healthy, strong, vital bodies and minds.

Yoga has been the path to health and living for more than 5,000 years. It’s a ‘Fountain of Youth’. The effects on the body are rejuvenating. It has a calming influence on the mind. Yoga is a pathway to heightened awareness of ourselves physically, mentally, and spiritually and is adaptable to any age group as well as any physical condition.

Yoga is far more effective than aerobics. It builds stamina and also controls breathing. And is even more relaxing than going for a jog along the beach. Clinically seen, Yoga has shown to lower blood pressure, build up muscle tissue, increase your circulation and flexibility. It’s a stress reliever for stress related symptoms and not to forget, it strengthens your respiratory system, cleanses internal organs and balances your digestive system. You will also find that you find relief from symptoms of menopause and it lessons the effect of osteoporosis. The nervous system feels energised, it offers relief from headaches and the lower backache mots of us suffer from.

Yoga benefit’s the body, mind and soul. It’s a pathway to greater spiritual awareness. Health is a choice, attitude and of course state of our minds. Question is, what do you want to look like when you reach 50? Really, it is up to you.

There are hundreds of reasons why you should go organic. Hopefully you are already!

Here are a few ‘reminders’. Just listen to this:

>> Many fruit and vegetables contain a cocktail of pesticides.

>> Your skin absorbs 60% of what you put on it into your body (that includes the chlorine in your bath/shower water)

>> For many years some chemicals can remain in your body.

>> In conventional farming up to 500 chemicals are used regular.

>> To convert a farm into an organic farm takes 5 years.

>> Even though Chemicals such as Lindane and DDT are banned in the UK, they are still used in other countries.

>> Lindane and DDT are linked with cancer.

>> In imported food traces of banned chemicals have been found.

>> Antibiotics used on animals can be absorbed by you when you eat the meat.

>> Soya allergies have risen since the import of GM Soya has started.

SO GO ON, THINK AGAIN TO MAKE THAT SWITCH!!

I’m just watching Episode One of Four of the recreated authentic 19th century Victorian Pharmacy on BBC 2. You know me, it’s all natural, so I find it very interesting. I’m amazed at what remedies they make with ingredients like the oil of earthworms, opium, a natural cough medicine laced with Cannabis and Morphine. Not to mention the traditional blood sucking Leeches.

I have just watched this on BBC News. And I was faczinated by the courage as well as the ideas. If you haven’t watched it on TV, you may want to check it out. It could be JUST what you are looking for. I certainly will look into it

By Leo Telling Money Watch, BBC Two

When our personal finances are under pressure the first things to go are the luxuries - fewer nights out, cancelling the gym membership and cutting back on the little things that make life more pleasant.

So if someone told you there was a way to claw back some of those treats that eat into your disposable income, you would probably jump at the chance.

Well, actually there is a way, and it is older than money itself.

It used to be called barter - exchanging your goods and services for someone else’s - but today it is more commonly known as ’swapping’.

Thanks to the internet, and the recession, it seems to be becoming more and more popular.

Nicole Wehden, founder of the swapaskill.com website, says that she now has more than 12,000 users of her free to use website, up from just a few thousand a couple of years back.

The swapaskill website allows users to write an online profile which details what kind of skills they have on offer and what they are looking for in return.

Other on-line schemes such as LETS allow people to build up credits by doing favours for others and then cashing in those credits at a later date.

Swapping and bartering allows everyone to get goods and services without spending any money.
