What signals are you receiving?

Hello there all you awesome Wellness Warriors Have you had a spot of heartburn lately? Perhaps your elbow has been sore? Blurry eyes? Where have you been annoyed or angry and swallowed it? Where have you been indulging in a spot of coffee or 5? What are you trying not to see? Scary that your body can be telling you where there are challenges in your life. Whether they be in the physical or the physiological.  When you are 'acid' with someone or something you literally have acid in your system, whether it is heartburn, or sore joints. When one of your organs or systems in your body is not at ease- it will tell you. Awareness is key at this point. Thinking out the box is a great idea. My weak spot is coffee. 1 cup a month appears to be acceptable. More than this and my kidneys talk to me through my elbows. O my! touch anything, even clothing, and my elbows chat to me. What part of you is talking to you? Listen to what your body is telling you today. It could save you

Keep the end in mind

This morning I was looking forward to my run. The thought of getting out of bed, however, was not appealing. Once dressed  and out the door I was greeted with cloudy, grey skies.

When we keep our goal or dream in mind, it can be misty, the path obscure, the way not as clear as we may like it to be. So long as we keep moving and the destination in mind. We are able to achieve what we set out to, and even more. We just need to plan ahead for the next 'destination' so that we do not stagnate once the original goal is reached. stagnation is smelly and unpleasant. Not where we

What is being stolen?

Hello all you wonderful Wellness Warriors Alexander,my son, had bricks left over from a project he had finished. I had plans for those bricks! But due to various reasons never put the plan in my diary and to-do-list. Procrastination, they say, is the thief of time. Here it was the thief of my plans. I noticed something interesting . The double row was now a single row. The height had also decreased dramatically. SOMEONE WAS STEALING THE BRICKS ! Our nocturnal visitors had struck again. No wonder our dogs had been going ballistic. Well! I took the remaining few bricks and used them to mark out my new herb garden; a much reduced plan due to the theft. Amazing what we find time for when we have to. ( I woke up very aware of muscles I thought I was training this morning) While I was running this morning I was pondering on the thought,"What do we allow to be stolen from us due to being unaware?" Our health? Our self respect? Our income? Our relationships? I see this i
