Loving Self is the most important person to love – looking Self in the mirror and saying “I Love YOU” and mean it is probably the most important thing you can do. Warts and all – but you can Love others so much more when you Love SELF first. It is like taking care of SELF because then you can take care of others better. I believe that some people take care of others before their self and it takes a toll on the WHOLE SELF.

LOVE by Leo Buscaglia is a wonderful book. So many wonderful and thoughtful things about LOVE and how real love always creates.

My story about my sister; 2 weeks before she died from leukemia she called and told me the doctor gave her 2 weeks to live. She said “I regret not doing more with my life, I know could have”. It was the saddest thing in my life because I work everyday so when I cross over the Rainbow Bridge I will know I will have tried to make my time here count towards good and meaningful.

Viktor Frankl did not believe man was seeking pleasure but was seeking a deep sense of meaning. He believed that when a person could not find a deep sense of meaning, then he distracted themselves with pleasure(Sigmund Freud)

Viktor Frankl came up with how we each could experience a meaningful life:

1. Have a project you are working on that requires your unique skills and abilities. And preferable a project that helps others.

2. Share with loving relationships

3. Find redemptive perspective on your challenges.

How do you want to look back on your life. What do you want to leave to this family and friends to remember you. You want as few regrets as possible. You do not want to say: I should have, could have, would have. You can do all those things. Start today. No one said it was going to be easy. You have to EMPOWER yourself. You have to ENCOURAGE yourself. On a daily basis.

Fill the Body with healthy and nutritious foods

Your Body is a temple – treat it like one

Make sure your Body is getting the nutrients that is required to keep it running like a well-tuned car

Iodine is one of the nutrients that I never knew were so important until the past several years, but in all the books that I read from Doctors they point out how important Iodine is, and especially for people like myself who are hypothyroidism.

We are all individuals and our Bodies are all different: our environment, our genetics, our lifestyles are all different and we need to take all these into consideration when looking for the right ratio and kind of nutrients to make our bodies run as well as possible for our entire life so we can have this HEALTHY LIFE SPAN.

YOUR body is not going to function at the high level it should if YOUR body is not fed the right foods and nutrients.

The soil of the earth is not like it was 50 years ago so your vegetables and fruit are not the high quality they use to be. For YOUR body – grow what vegetables and fruit you can in you yard or apartment. Buy at local farmer’s market if you are not able to grow your own.

A Prayer for Today

This is the beginning of a new day. God has given me this day to use as I will. I can waste it or use it for good but what I do today is important, because I am exchanging a day of my life for it. When tomorrow comes, this day will be gone forever, leaving in its place something I have traded for it. I want it to be gain and not loss, good and not evil, success and not failure, in order that I shall not regret the price that I have paid for it.

YOUR NEXT TWELVE HOURS

JUST FOR TODAY I will try to live through this day only, and not tackle my whole life’s problems at once.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be happy. I will assume to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, “My folks were as happy as they made up their minds to be.”

JUST FOR TODAY I will try to strengthen my mind, I will study and I will learn something useful. I will read something that requires effort, thought, and concentration.

JUST FOR TODAY I will adjust my self to what is and not try to adjust everything for my own desires.

JUST FOR TODAY I will exercise my soul in three ways: I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out; I will do at least two things I do not want to do, just for exercise; I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt, they may be hurt but today I will not show it.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, not find fault with anything and not try to improve or regulate anybody but myself.

JUST FOR TODAY I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly but I will have it.

JUST FOR TODAY I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.

JUST FOR TODAY I will have a quiet half hour all by myself. During this half hour I will try to get a better perspective on my life.

JUST FOR TODAY I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful and to believe that as I give to the world so the world will give back to me.

JUST FOR TODAY I will recognize God as my Heavenly Father and that I am his child and to think, act and feel accordingly. This is the day which the Lord hath made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.

JUST FOR TODAY I will pray at noon for the world’s greatest need, “Grant peace, O God, in our time, Amen.

JUST FOR TODAY I will give back to God this day before going to sleep in this covering prayer:

O Lord, thou knows how I live;

All I have done amiss forgive;

All of good I have tried to do:

Strengthen, bless and carry through;

All I love in safety keep,

While in thee, I fall asleep.

You need to know that there is research going on all the time

about different topics and issues around the world at different

universities and different organizations or foundations.

One of the topics I really like to know about is different

between the mind and the brains.

If you believe they are the same you are wrong –they are 2

different parts. In Berlin, they have a master’s program about

each – the brain for one master’s program and the mind for

another master’s program. I will go over these programs later o.

Right now I will tell you about the research paper on Control Mind-

unleash your mind power. Just to give a little tease they talk

about the mind/brain being a computer and needing hardware

and software.

In our culture, we use the words brain and mind interchangeable

even though they really do refer to separate, although often

overlapping concepts. The brain is an organ but the mind is not.

The brain is the physical place where the mind resides. It is a

vessel in which the electronic impulses that create thought are

contained. With the brain, you coordinate your moves, your

organism, your activities, and transmit impulses. But you use the

mind to think. You can muse at what happened, what is

scheduled and what maybe will happen.

The mind is the manifestations of thought, perception, emotion,

determination, memory, and imagination that takes place with the

brain. The mind is often used to refer especially to the thought

processes of reason. The mind is the awareness of

consciousness we know, the ability to control what we do and

know what we are doing and why. It is the ability to understand.

An animal is able to interpret their environments, but not

understand them. Whereas humans are able to understand what

happens around them, even if not the scientific reasoning for it,

and therefore adapt.

The mind made humans capable of solving complex logical

problem which differentiates us than other living beings. Logic

makes us understand that things are not as what they seem. Our

ability to analyze situations makes it possible to develop solutions

to problems and lead us toward practical solutions. We may not

be able to see atoms, but we can design experiments that enable

us to know their properties. Each state of scientific advancement

has usually been made by trying to reach a logical conclusion

consistent with our observations.

We could say that our brain is part of our body and our mind –

outside of the brain, is sense, thoughts, feelings, emotions,

surroundings which is collected by our soul/body/and our life

experiences from childhood.

Have the neuroscientists figured out what specifically the mind is?

And what we call our subconscious mind is interspersed within

the mind a sub-set of the mind but with “intention” gets us where

we want to go in life.

Start today taking care of your posture, muscles, bones and

joints.

It is all about YOUR NUTRITION that goes into your body

YOUR body changes in posture and gait-your walking pattern are

common with aging. Also, changes in the skin and hair are

common.

YOUR skeleton provides support and structure to the body. YOU

need to know what to do to take care of this support system.

muscles provide the force and strength to move the body.

Coordination is directed by the brain but is affected by changes

in the muscles and joints. Changes in the muscles, joints, and

bones affect the posture and walk, and lead to weakness and

slowed movement.

YOU will loose bone mass and or density as YOU age, especially

women after menopause. YOUR bones lose calcium and other

minerals.

Even YOUR foot arches may become less pronounced,

contributing to a slight loss of height.

The long bones of YOUR arms and legs are more brittle because

of mineral loss, but they do not change length.

The joints become stiffer and less flexible. Fluid in the joints may

decrease. The cartilage may begin to rub together and wear

away. Minerals may deposit in and around some joint such as

calcification.

Hip and knew joints may begin to lose cartilage and the fingers

and bones may thicken.

Lean body mass decreases. This decrease is partly cased by a

loss of muscle tissue and atrophy sets in.

The speed and amount of muscle changes seem to be caused by

genes. Muscle changes often begins in the 20 s in men and in

the 40 s in women.

Muscles fibers shrink, muscle tissue is replaced more slowly.

Lost muscle tissue may be replaced with a tough fibrous tissue.

Most noticeable in the hands, which may look thin and bony.

YOU may not notice YOUR inside body, muscles, and joints are

Starting to change in your 40 s as a woman – but BEWARE those

are changing and you need to be proactive and not wait until

something happens to YOUR body and become reactive.

Start TODAY

Muscle loss can affect your energy level

Muscles play a role in your body movement, balance and

posture.

Invest in your muscles NOW before something happens.

YOUR diet is directly linked to YOUR muscle health.

Eat to build up muscle loss – NUTRITION

NOURISH your body – start today

My body was out of alignment for along time-had to have both

hips replace but have been working to rebuild

I fix chicken feet broth to help build my collagen back into my

muscles and joints.

Buy chicken feet at farmer’s market and cook in slow cooker for

about 20 hours with a couple table Bragg’s apple cider vinegar.

Put into zip lock bags in the freezer and drink one cup a week.

It makes your body feel so wonderful and your face will be smooth

and show no wrinkles – even at almost 75 years of age I have no

wrinkles
