Hypnosis and love

In the Daily Mail on September 9th 2016 there was an interesting article about "Can hypnosis boost your love life?".

It is a good article and a reminder on how quickly you can get results if you make an effort to change.

Sometimes when relationships are failing, you get to a place of hopelessness and stop talking.  All relationships need to have good communication to be successful.  It is important that you discuss problems coming from a place of love, respect, and support.  It is equally important that you both come up with ideas for the best solution.  Then you are working together to save the relationship instead of opposite sides.

  

Think yourself fitter Metro September 1st 2016

I love this article and believe it works.  We all know how our bodies react to our thoughts but this is even more amazing and gives hope to those who want to be fitter but are restricted in their physical abilities.

Tessa Guy is a true inspiration to to the "never give up" attitude.

So get those grey cells going and get yourself fitter!!!!

Is there life after death? Proof of Heaven

Just read this book called Proof of Heaven by Dr. Eben Alexander. It is his personal story about a near death experience and his description on meeting God and being in "heaven". 

When I read a book like this I keep an open mind. I don't know what I believe is true when I read the book, but I do know I believe in a higher spirit. I believe in good karma. I believe in love, gratitude, and empathy. 

When faced with uncertainty I do pray for help. When friends and family are sick, I pray for their health. When we can't explain why things happen, I choose to look for the most positive thing to take away from it.

You may not believe in any of the above, but at the end of the day, I choose to want to think there is more that awaits us after death and we should not fear it. We should all want to enjoy the thought that life goes on, even after death. Then we would fear growing older less and enjoy those years. Just my view. Marygrace

Deepak Chopra Super Gene

We went to see Deepak Chopra speak this past weekend on his new book Super Gene's. He was amazing, inspirational, thought provoking, and mesmerising.

He also has a great sense of humour and was able to explain highly complicated scientific information and relate it to everyday life.

I wanted to share two of the activities he had us do. The first was to sit with your eyes closed and have someone ask you over and over, "who are you" until you reached a point of no response. Then they asked (again over and over) "what do you want". Both are very moving and I think you will be surprised at your answers by doing this(even by yourself). I believe this exercise, you will find the answers you give will be heartfelt.

The second, was when you are faced with a fear, problem or argument, you should: stop and pause, take 3 deep breaths, smile, observe from your prospective, the other persons perspective, other peoples perspectives who are affected, and then proceed. It will change your habit of just doing what you have always done. This is true for any habit you want to change.

But don't just take my word for it. Go and see him live next time he is in London.

Running smarter with less injury

Highly recommend this book.  It is focused on being aware of your body and running style to prevent injury and stay healthy.  Danny Dreyer takes you through a step by step explanation on proper running form and you can feel this enthusiasm coming right out of the book.  I found it helped me and I was fascinated with his mind and body formula.  As you already know, I totally know that there is a mind and body connection, but he is focused from an athletes prospective.

Enjoy your run!
