Family and Friends

Who are the people in your life that you can depend on to support you no matter what happens? Life is filled with so many demands and seemingly unfair circumstances that you can head to overwhelm without good coping and caring, loving family and friends. Who stands by you through thick and thin? Nurturing your relationships takes time and effort, but can provide incredible strength, guidance and caring in times of difficulty. Relationships with my family and friends is my number 1 priority and has supported me through much of my life’s ups and downs. Are you a good friend and family member?

Which Diet Works? None!

So much is written every day about diets. Some physicians even endorse particular diets as the best way to lose weight. Are they making money from the company? How do you know who to listen to when “authorities” are making claims? Listen to your own body. Paying attention to how you feel after you eat a food is the best way to determine. Can you tell the difference when you start your day with a healthy breakfast like greek yogurt and fruit rather than a donut and coffee? Keep track for a few days and see if you notice differences in how you feel after eating certain foods. Remember… there are no good or bad foods, some just nourish your body better than others.

Remembering Special People

As we get closer to Mother’s Day to celebrate the women who mean so much to us, I’d like to remember some other very special people. Not everyone had a loving, caring mom who nurtured, hugged and showed them how very unique and important they were. But then someone came along in their life who did love, nurture and show them how very special they are indeed! Whether it was a spouse, best friend, sister or cousin, bless you for being there for them! As the Dalai Lama says, “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.”

Heated Conversation

When you are attempting to communicate with someone and the conversation goes from calm to heated, what went wrong? There could be as many different answers as there are people, but ponder this. Maybe one of you (or both) feel like you are not being “heard”. Sometimes our feelings are so strong about something, that we spend more time trying to convince the other person to see things our way, than to honestly listening to what the other is saying or trying to say. This recently happened to me with a family member and it was a great learning experience. Where has this happened in your life? Family, business, friends?
