It’s a fact. We choose to do certain things, act certain ways, and set ourselves up for success or failure every day. And, the good news is that if we make inappropriate or health detracting choices one day, we can reverse the trend the next day!
I have a suggestion to begin the process of training yourself to make the correct choices a far easier task. Rather than becoming overwhelmed with challenges, if we would just take it one step at a time, it’ll be much more attainable. At least it becomes more palatable! So, how do we do it? Where do we start? Continue reading →
When B.E.S.T. is used with animals or humans, balance is what we endeavor to accomplish. We balance the internal environment (achieve homeostasis), so that all the organs are synchronized with each other and, at the same time, appropriate for the survival of the individual or animal with its external environment.

At the same time, the thalamus receives information from the external environment by way of the five senses. Now, here is where a major balance must occur. The thalamus and hypothalamus must be in constant and continuous communication in order to accomplish this synchronization. Continue reading →

I said “Yes” because it felt right. Continue reading →
Do you know you have the ability to live in joy, bliss and love even when you experience something painful in your life? Whether it is a job lay-off, infidelity or the loss of a loved one, you have the power to learn and grow from everything.
Whenever a betrayal or traumatic event occurs, you will naturally experience associated emotions. You need to acknowledge these emotions … and the sooner the better. I’m not suggesting that you dig up past emotions (which may be triggered by your current situation). However, it is important to focus on what you feel … NOW. This is not an instruction to get stuck in the emotions; rather, for you to acknowledge, experience, and move through them. Continue reading →
I am fascinated with relationships. I love to observe my relationships and other people’s relationships. I have discovered that relationships are a full time job! Some relationships appear or feel easier than others. However, they still take focus and commitment.
