Oh, how we love to talk about our emotions. But, I believe you

may need to know about what researchers in Finland have

compiled and the first authoritative atlas of “body maps” that

detail where we feel emotions. You can now know that happiness

actually makes us feel tingly all over, that sadness is felt in the

heart, and that depression is characterized by an all-over

numbness. It would seem idioms such as a chest puffed with

pride, or cold feet, are very much seated in physiological reality.

YOU know that emotions are linked to physiological changes –

nervousness and sweaty palms, shame and a hot head/cheeks,

fear and a racing heart – but this study, carried out by Lauri

Nummenmaa and friends are exciting because it uses a very large

the pool of participants – 700 people from Finland, Sweden, and

Taiwan – and is controlled by nationality and language, in other

words, despite differences in language and culture, it seems that

all humans have a very similar, genetically idiom tells us to pride

really does make your face and torso feel good.

The researchers hope that, with continued study, these maps may

help with diagnosing and treating emotional disorders.
Each emotion triggers a very specific and unique physiological

response. Happiness and love are the only emotions that

increase sensation below the waist. That is interesting and we all

know that is true from our loves over our lifetimes. Sadness

decreases the feeling of everything, except for the heart and parts

of the fee. Depression is an all-over lack of sensation. It is

starting to see shame’s intense increase of sensation in the head

and cheeks, fluttering heart and stomach, and numbness of legs

so accurately depicted. Now we just need to work out WHY and

HOW each emotion triggers such a physiological response?

Let me list the Primary, secondary and tertiary emotions that are

Categorized into a short tree structure

Love

Affection – adoration, love, caring, sentimentality

Lust – arousal, desire, lust, passion

Longing – longing

Joy

Cheerfulness – amusement, bliss, joy, ecstasy

Zest – zeal, excitement, thrill

Contentment – pleasure

Pride – triumph

Optimism – hope, optimism

Relief – relief

Surprise

Surprise – astonishment

Anger

Irritation – annoyance

Exasperation – frustration

Rage – resentment, dislike

Envy – jealousy

Torment – torment

Sadness

Suffering – hurt

Sadness – depression

Disappointment – displeasure

Shame – remorse, regret

Neglect – isolation, neglect

Sympathy – pity, sympathy

Fear

Horror – shock, horror, terror, panic

Nervousness – anxiety, worry, tenseness

There is new research from the Institute of Neuroscience and

Psychology at the University of Glasgow that says the range of

human emotion may be a little closer to a teaspoon than

previously thought.

Four basic emotions, according to this study; happy, sad,

afraid/surprised, and angry/disgusted.

From these 2 research that is above – can group as seen into

smaller groups,

One of my favorite authors is Gerald G. Jampolsky who wrote

“Love is Letting go of Fear” which is an amazing book – little as it

is but had a profound effect on my when I read it in the 1980s.

So, to get down to the basics of our emotions –Love is letting go

of Fear is probably a great little book to read. The research

above is always good to know and understand also.

MSM is a very critical nutrient for your body to remain youthful

and energetic. As we age, along with diet deficient in essential

nutrients, our bodies become stiff, our cells become rigid, and our

overall energy begins to rapidly decelerate.

MSM (methysulfonylmethane) is an organic sulfur compound that

is naturally derived during the earth’s rain cycle. Sulfur is present

in many natural unprocessed foods, but it is quickly lost during the

cooking process. MSM is gaining a lot of attention due to the

recent focus on longevity and anti-aging technologies.

Here is a list of 7 benefits from MSM:

Improves skin health and complexion

Necessary for collagen production. MSM can normalize collagen formation and radically improve skin health

improves flexibility

MSM is highly effective in improving joint flexibility. Increase in overall flexibility due to a restoration of the “juices” in the tissues

Detoxifies the body

MSM make your cells more permeable. Allows toxin and metabolic waste products to easily be moved out of the cells, while essential nutrients and hydration can be moved in. It is a calcium phosphate dissolver, breaks up the bad calcium that at the root of degenerative diseases.

Strengthens hair and nails

Collagen and keratin are both critical for the production of healthy hair and nails. It is a “beauty mineral” that provides the sulfur needed to produce collagen and keratin.

Accelerates healing

Lactic acid and other byproducts cause pin and soreness in the body. MSM increases the ability of the body to eliminate waste products at the cellular level. Speeds recovery and frees up more energy for rebuilding

Naturally, increases energy

Due to the increased permeability of the cells, less energy is required to deal with the accumulation of toxins. This results in more energy being redirected towards activity and necessary healing. Digestion is the biggest energy requirement of the body. Approximately 70-80% of your energy is spent on digestion each day). MSM increases the absorption of nutrients so that the energy expenditure on digestion is vastly reduced

Anti-inflammatory

MSM is a powerful anti-inflammatory due to its ability to allow metabolic wastes to be removed from the cells. Excess weight on the body is actually inflammation. The cells of the body are chronically inflamed and retaining the byproducts of metabolic process. Sulfur needs to be present in order for these toxins and wastes to be removed from the body. When these byproducts can be removed from the system, then the cells can also dispose of excess fluids that were being stored in a buffer.

I use to buy at People’s Pharmacy but it was very expensive-then

I found organic PC Network that sold 5 lbs. at a time that was

reasonable.

YOUR body needs MSM

Work your way up from ½ tsp a day until 3 tablespoons a day to see real benefit.

What do YOU suppose the difference is between YOU

being negative and around negative people OR

YOU being positive and around positive people.

The best way to approach YOUR life is to try to stay away

from negative people; whether they are family or friends stay

away from them and if you find yourself around those kind of

people please smile, be as positive as possible, and do not

fall into their pattern of behavior because they will want YOU to

agree and just nodding your head verifies their mind-set.

Be at YOUR best – be at your most positive mind-set.

Stay away from people who are possessed with just a small

Thought process. Narrow thinking makes people zero in on

negativity – they are not self-aware because they are needy,

all about managing others to their way of thinking. They have

no idea about the WHOLE person-mind, body and spirit. At this

blog and in my life I want YOU to be the most: Self-aware person

you know so that you can help others in a more positive and

productive way that they need from YOU.

Be kind, be helpful, be positive, be happy, be loving, be generous

and YOU will see YOUR whole life change in super wonderful

ways.

Learn and read from the wonderful books that are available to

you. The only way I feel wonder at 74 years of age is because

my mind is open for learning from others that have gone before

me.

What does YOUR

LIFE EXPECT FROM YOU?

One of my favorite authors and researchers is Immanuel

Velikovsky – he wrote, and you should read his writings, because

It is about YOUR history that is now only beginning to be

Understood and coming to the forefront of the WORLD. But,

Because of Dr. Immanuel Velikovsky and his research of decades

And his writing we are now learning of the real World History.

But he paid the price because they are people who do not want

us to be SELF-AWARE, or be OUR BEST, or be the MOST

POSITIVE, and to know that the past may be the key to YOUR

present.

YOU will never know what LIFE EXPECTS FROM YOU until

YOU TRULY KNOW SELF AND THE POSSIBILITIES OF SELF-

Not other self’s but of YOURSELF.

Never settle – in your personal life, in your professional life, in

your family life, or in your friend’s life.

Professor Velikovsky gave up a wonderful life because he would

not settle, would not cave-in, would not give up on the truths that

he knew would change the world thinking of their history.

In 1950 he already knew from his research there. There were

some approximately 40 predictions that he made that the

academic scholars-so-called but not really said different than

Professor Velikovsky.

Be a Professor Velikovsky – see your higher-self, see that

what life expects from YOU, never settle for people around YOU

that are negative, that are needy, that are negative vampires.

BE POSITIVE, BE SELF-AWARE,

LEARN WHAT LIFE EXPECTS FROM YOU

YOU will only learn when YOUR MIND, BODY and SPIRIT are

In balance and working on it daily for the rest of your life.

Are you nurturing the spiritual side of SELF?

Always be the best YOU can be – that will lift you to the next level

Of YOUR spiritual life.

However, you do that is ok for YOU but we will go through

some things that might lift you up to another level or break

down the walls of any boxes you have built up around YOUR

Spiritual side.

Trying smiling MORE

Try having good intentions,

Try being positive

Try thinking good thoughts

Items that may help you lift up YOUR spiritual SELF to the next

level;

Healthier choices – in food, relationships, professional life

Favorable changes in relationships

Good financial behavior

Others notice YOUR changes

Increased mindfulness – easier to get things done

Improved level of well-being – improvement at work

Improved and less time-consuming recovery from

unpleasant events

Improved response to pleasant events – more productive

Not overly attached to things

More fully present and engaged – in the zone

More content with who you are and what you have

More empowered to be your authentic self

Empower SELF – Empower SELF – Empower SELF

Be grateful every day for everything –put any negatives

that may come up for the day. Life can have dramatic and

tragedies and trauma. They are coming to all of us – those

traumas and tragedies.

What is in YOUR tool box to deal with the traumas and

tragedies that come into all our lives.

Use all the tools in YOUR toolbox:

Meditate

Prayer

Yoga

Quiet place

Dinner with family and friends

Exercise

Start a project and finish the project as YOUR goal.

Plan to do YOUR bucket list

Write in your journal

YOUR life patterns that show how YOU deal with tragedies

And trauma in your life are characteristics that come from

YOUR own life’s patterns:

It is easy, as we go through life, to pick up negative habits

that when real life tragedies and traumas come our way

Nurture SELF during the difficult times in YOUR life. Use

All of your tools in your toolbox. Pamper SELF, meditate

And sit quietly and be thankful for YOU.

The only way YOU can nurture SELF is by SELF

But in YOUR lifetime there will be those times when

You need to step it up for YOUR benefit and not go

Into depression or have anxiety.

Nurturing SELF 95% of the time is what YOU need to do

so in the down times that come with trauma and tragedies

YOUR toolbox will be there for you, and will be YOUR best

friend and ally in YOUR life.

YOU are a super person who has a super mind that needs

to be nurtured while you are living in this beautiful life.

HANDLE YOUR LIFE AND YOURSELF WITH TENDER

LOVING CARE – ALWAYS.

Sometimes be stronger than today

Sometimes have more courage than today

Sometimes be more grateful than today

Glow within and glow without – smile with that glow

This is all about nurturing YOUR spirit

Coronary calcium is a good indicator of heart attack risk since it

measures the amount of calcium, one of the components that can

build up in plaques that narrow heart vessels and can rupture and

cause heart attacks.

Plaque builds up can cause terrible effects on your health but

Eating healthy from a young age – and can slow your energy

Down, cause heart attacks.

Those eating 7 – 9 servings of vegetables and fruit a day on average were 25 % less to have coronary calcium in their arteries

There are several things that I have done over the years that have

Helped clean plaque out of my vessels and that is:

I have flossed my teeth for 35 years now once a day

I have taken L-arginine

L-arginine is a type of amino acid, and as we know, amino acids are the “building blocks” of proteins.

L-arginine is considered somewhat essential because it is highly important for many functions and I will list the benefits of L-arginine:

Stimulates growth hormones and insulin that help usher glucose into cells to be used for growth and energy output.

Enhances physical performance, stamina, and strength

Fight inflammation

Lowering risk for arteriosclerosis and heart attack

Repairing blood vessels

Fighting congestive heart failure

Help lower high blood pressure

Improving athletic performance

Increase immune function

Improve kidney function

Reduce muscle pains

Improve mental capacity

Fighting dementia

Preventing common cold

Correcting impotence

L-arginine is needed by the endothelial cells in order to form enough nitric oxide to keep blood flowing freely.

Listed below are 5 ways L-arginine helps the body:

improves heart health

Lowers inflammation and fights the effects of aging.

Boosts exercise performance

improves immunity. Helps prevent infections and speeds up

healing

helps treat erectile dysfunction and infertility

Some of the best natural sources of L-arginine includes:

Cage-free eggs

Dairy products-cultured yogurt, kefir, raw organic cheese

Grass fed beef

Liver and organ meats

Wild caught fish

Sesame seeds

Pumpkin seeds

Sunflower seeds

Seaweed and sea vegetables

Spirulina

Brazil nuts

Walnuts

Almonds

Coconut meat

Everything about YOU – your mind, body, and spirit are

interacting every minute of every day of your life. The more

You know about all YOU – the more you will age healthy and

live life until you die.

Each of us had our own childhood – whatever our socioeconomic

Status was.

My mother always had:

Meat

Potatoes

Salad

Desert

I grew up on that food-mother never had a vegetable garden

because we lived in a city.

I do believe strongly that people who were raised on farms and

had gardens and chickens or pigs or beef are probably in better

health than my family and aged healthy.

For 35 years I have been doing preventive for SELFhood.

Everything I talk about on this website I have probably done over

these 35 years to age healthily.

Here are a couple of quotes from my wonderful people:

Find a place inside where there is joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.

Joseph Campbell

Happiness lies in the joy of achievement and the thrill of creative afford

Franklin D. Roosevelt

It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken JOY in creative expression and knowledge

Buddha

A thing of beauty is a joy forever; it is loveliness increases; it will never pass into nothingness’

John Keats

Joy is prayer; joy is strength; joy is love; joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.

YOUR joy will be different from anyone else’s JOY because of YOUR uniqueness

Love and Forgiveness = JOY

Love SELF

Forgive SELF

Have JOY

Love Dr. Leo Buscaglia

Today, this blog will be about Dr. Buscaglia and what wonderful

work he did in making it ok to internalize and externalize LOVE

And how important it is in each of us and to extend to our

the outer world of family, friends and to everyone we come in

contact with.

I never met the man but came across his Book LOVE in the

The 1980s when I was starting to develop to see who I was

because until then I had been controlled by parents, husband, and

society and the environment. I needed to know ME – SELFhood.

Dr. Buscaglis/’s theory is that love is learned and that everyone

can and should learn to love. Love SELF first and then out into

the universe. But, there are people with negative energy and

needy, dramatic and chaos people you need to stay away from.

Below are some wonderful quotes from Dr. Buscaglia:

Your talent is God’s gift to you. What you do with it is your

Gift back to GOD.

Now, that is what my podcast and book are about:

“What Does Life expect from YOU?”

Only the weak are cruel. Gentleness can only be expected from the Strong.

I have a very strong feeling that the opposite of love is not hate-

It is apathy. It is not giving a damn.

Love is life. And if you miss love, you miss life.

Biologically and physiologically, we are not equal. Some of us learn better at different times of the day. Some learn best visually, some auditorially, some tactilely, by touching.

If I don’t have wisdom, I can teach you only ignorance.

What we call the secret of happiness is no more a secret than our willingness to choose life.

Love is always open arms. If you close your arms about love you will find that you are left holding only yourself.

Never idealize others. They will never live up to your expectations.

Do not brood. Get on with living and loving. You do not have forever.

What love we are given, we will have forever. What love we fail to give, will be lost for all eternity.

One of my favorites:

The easiest thing to be in the world is YOU. The most difficult thing to be is what other people want you to be. Do not let them put you in that position.

From ME: SELFhood is what he is talking about. YOUR uniqueness.

Change is the end result of all true learning.

I love reading reviews of books and reading the reviews of Dr.

Buscaglia’s books are uplifting and motivational in their own

right.

One reviewer talks about his anger which has haunted him his

Whole life and that this one little book has helped him so much.

He still has anger issues but it is helping him in his daily life.

To me, this book is about loving firstly SELF-so you can go out

Into the world and love others not intimately always – but letting

People know you love them by your speech, actions, and loving

attitude

YOU have to protect your MIND

The best way to do that is having knowledge on what

may affect YOUR mind.

More and more research is coming out about

Hormone-disrupting chemicals are doing to not only

YOUR mind but your body which affects YOUR spirit.

It is all connected so just remember:

Body = Mind = Spirit = Body = Mind =Spirit

It all is connected please remember that

So it is important to know that there have been

Many people over many years that have done research

And been talking about hormone-disrupting chemicals

And how they are affecting YOU but your children, family

And friends in many ways.

Dr. Blylock

Dr. Mercola

Since I have been listening to these wonderful researchers and

Doctors for almost 20 years I have been aware of hormone-

disrupting chemicals for all those years and I have been

taking steps to eliminate them as much as possible.

But, because of what the multinational food companies and

supplement companies have been doing for past 20-30

years these small particles are already in all of our body

through the skin, blood and anyway they can get into our

Mind, Body and Spirit.

I am very careful about what I buy at grocery store-

NO BAGGED Food

NO BOXED Food

NO CANNED Food

And I do juice with extra turmeric and ground pepper and

olive oil. Beet juice plus a lot of GOOD Supplements-I get only

Prescription quality supplements at:

Local Pharmacy

The Power Hour

Infowar.com

I would never buy anything at corner pharmacy’s or grocery stores

Even exposure to tiny doses of hormone-disrupting chemicals

Is responsible for at least $340 billion in health-relate costs each

year.

Flame retardants and pesticides, in particular, are known to affect

the developing brain and can lead to loss of IQ.

Each IQ point lost corresponds to approximately two percent in

lost productivity.

The costs and benefits of regulation should be openly debated,

citing the decision in the 1970s to ban lead in paint and also in

gasoline

Bisphenol A

Cleaning products

Pesticides

Weaponizing weather particles

Anything man-made should be avoided as much as possible.

So-called endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) are found in

Thousands of everyday products, ranging from plastic and metal

food containers, to detergents, flame retardants, toys and

cosmetics plus those mentioned above.

Neurological damage and behavioral problems, including

attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), autism and loss of

IQ.

The body’s endocrine tissues produce essential hormones that

help regulate energy levels, reproduction, growth, development,

as well as our responses to stress and injury.

EDC’s lock on to receptors within a human cell and block the

body’s own hormones from binding to it. Very adverse

consequences and life-long consequences at that.

BEWARE – BEWARE – BEWARE

Of everything you buy

Of everything you put in your mouth

Of everything YOUR children have in their room, put into

their mouth, or anything they eat.

Be smart

Be aware

Be informed

This blog about YOUR Spirit we will be talking about one of most

enlighten spiritual books in the last 50 years and how it may

affect your life and your journey and empower YOU.

THE ALCHEMIST

By Paulo Coelho

It is about a shepherd and moving in a simple way while he was

places it in the following his dreams he had about treasures in

Egyptian pyramids.

The shepherd meets many spiritual messengers along his

journey.

The one encounter was meeting was the alchemist and about

Metals being heated for many years would be eventually freed of

all individual properties, and what would be left “Soul of the

World”.

His heart is afraid that it will have to suffer. The alchemist

reassures the shepherd that the fear of suffering is worse than the

suffering itself.

If we are living in fear, we cannot move forward with our dreams

and opportunities.

There are only 2 emotions – LOVE and FEAR.

It is always better to live in Love and move forward through the

FEAR

There are a lot of lessons in this book – this little book about a

Shepherd.

Listening to our hearts and following YOUR dreams.

Living in the moment

Freeing YOUR self from fear

Understanding YOU are part of the energy of the Universe

Understanding everything will work out the way it was intended.

The universe will conspire to help YOU fulfill YOUR purpose –

Use YOUR sub-consciousness every day.

I always have enjoyed stories that

Encourage

Empower

Each of us in our own way. ‘

We all know a lot if we have gotten out of high school but we all

Need encouragement and empowerment at different times in our

lives. Especially, when we have all been touched by tragic and

trauma – which includes anything like; death, divorce, anything

that can affect a person

This one little book are a simple tale about trying to keep us,

YOU, to keep diving into the strong current and to see where it

takes us. But be inspired by the words that the shepherd kept

having in his mind and thoughts that kept leading him towards his

the goal of seeing his mission to get to Egypt and his goals.

This book will help you remain in YOUR center and is an exquisite

book

The book emphasizes the reason for each living in the now as

opposed to one’s past and future. You will remember this book

And the shepherd’s journey and go back to read it over the years.

All the yesterday’s make up our history and YOUR life.

But this little book and all the blogs will help YOU

What Does Life Expect from YOU?

It is everyday journey and because you have to keep all your

Mind, body and spirit in mind with every step of every day

YOU and Prevention

Do Prevention for your health, body, and peace of mind.

It is harder to cure a disease than it is to prevent one.

Let me give you a list of disease you can prevent because I

Have been doing prevention for close to 30 years so that I do

Not get cancer, diabetes, arthritis and a mired of many others

Diseases that can be caused by inflammation and/or autoimmune

Diseases.

Listed below is a list of things that may cause disease:

Blood type

Lifestyle

Environment

Stress

Processed foods

Anxiety

Jealousy

Anger

Water

Many other items

Feed your cells well, feed your organs well, do your exercises,

think positive, be happy, love, forgive and do what YOUR body

requires to live healthy while YOU age and do not forget to be

thankful, meditate, and prayer.

I highly suggest that knowing YOUR characteristics that helps

Know what YOUR body needs to be and stay healthy.

Blood type

Birth Date

Genes/DNA

Personality type

Family relations

Pecking order

Since a lot of diseases starts in the gut – always good to start with

A good probiotic – I use one that was created by a Japanese

Doctor – Dr. Ohhira’s Probiotics – Pharmacist Ross Pelton sells it

And I buy it at my local pharmacy but you can order.

Pharmacist Pelton has a wonderful website

Naturalpharmacist.net

He was doing cancer researcher almost 30 years ago and is

so Informative on all issues of the body and health.

It does take time and effort – courage to know that you want to

age healthy,

I had both my hips replace years ago – from body being out of

Alignment and not arthritis. So I work on my upper leg muscles –

And I now I can walk up and down stairs without holding on to

railings but I continue to work on my upper leg muscles to build

them up for aging as I go along here.

Prevention should become a lifelong journey, as it has for me.

I work daily on prevention of any disease. My childhood family

Had all passed over the bridge by the time I was 63.

Brother dies of colon cancer and diabetes

Sister dies of leukemia

Mother dies of lung cancer

All within 2 ½ years.

My goal and daily mission are not to have those diseases

Since they have passed I went into depression so I am now

Taking Lithium Orates – I do get mine from:

The Power Hour – I also buy supplements from quality people,

places and websites that I know have quality, pharmacist quality

supplements.

I do treat my body like a temple because it is taking me the end

of my life and I want it in the best shape I can keep it.

YOUR body is a temple and should be treated as such so

that family and friends can see how well you are doing.

Life and time do not give an inch because YOU need to

start today – not tomorrow-tomorrow will – always start today.

Take small steps if you must – but take one step.
