Overcome Worry For A Healthier
You
by Kathy Gates
Norman Vincent Peale said, “You are not
what you think you are; but what you think, you are”. If we follow
this philosophy, then most of us are certifiable worry machines.
Worry is our greatest energy drain. It
distorts our thinking and stops all forward action. Can you control
worrying?

Blue Road to Atlantis
by Jay Nussbaum
Water is life. When it is
warm, I am warm. When it is cool, I am cool. When it is clear, I am
blessed with the vision of a seagull. When it is cloudy, I am blind. It
passes over me as a salty abluent and cleans me in its shimmering beauty.
It soils me too. It brings me the air that I breathe and the food that I
eat. One day, I will be the food that it brings to feed another. The sound
of water is silence; the sound of silence is the hum of posterity. The
movement of water is stillness; the stillness is the current, the drift
and the everlasting roll. Sound within silence and movement within
stillness. And always, always, respect for the current. The ocean's
current as well as the current that stirs within each of us.
I fly through the infinite,
blue water as birds fly through the infinite, blue sky. After all, water
is sky.

Recommended Book |
Told
from the perspective of a remora named Fishmael, who is traveling with
his mentor, a wise and beautiful marlin known as the "Old Fish,"
BLUE ROAD TO ATLANTIS intertwines a spiritual parable with Hemingway's
classic The Old Man and the Sea. The result is a lighthearted yet moving
allegory about leading a more fulfilling life. By setting forth the idea
that the quest for a higher vision and the acceptance of life's currents
brings true peace and happiness, this contemporary tale becomes a profound
meditation that is as entertaining as it is transformational. ~Amazon.com

Favorite Quotations |
"We
learn wisdom from failure much more than from success. We often
discover what will do, by finding out what will not do; and probably
he who never made a mistake never made a discovery."
~ Samuel Smiles
"That's
what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.
Most people love you for who you pretend to be. To keep their love,
you keep pretending - performing. You get to love your pretence. It's
true, we're locked in an image, an act - and the sad thing is, people
get so used to their image, they grow attached to their masks. They
love their chains. They forget all about who they really are. And if
you try to remind them, they hate you for it, they feel like you're
trying to steal their most precious possession."
~ Jim Morrison
"It
is easy in the world to live after the world's opinion, it is easy
in solitude to live after your own; but the great man is he who, in
the midst of the world, keeps with perfect sweetness the
independence of solitude."
~ Ralph Waldo
Emerson

Weiss, M.D. / Healing Body, Mind & Soul with Regression Therapy
|
| Hypnotic regression therapy
is gaining widespread recognition as a valid therapeutic method, and
Brian Weiss, author of Many Lives, Many Masters, is the
nation's foremost expert in the field... With Weiss, we learn to
identify the childhood and past-life patterns still causing symptoms
in the present, the theoretical and historical roots of regression
therapy, and when and how to apply regression techniques. Using
experiential techniques, including hypnotic regression exercises,
healing visualizations, meditation, and intuitional and right-brain
training, we harness the power to transform our lives. Weiss also
demonstrates hypnotic regression in a series of sessions with
volunteers from the group. 9AM-5PM. $165. For more information
