If you limit or don’t use artificial sweeteners, you’ve already got this challenge nailed. Just post your comment on the blog here so we can give you a cheer (and your name goes in the prize hat). Do tell us if and how you sweeten your drinks instead. For you artificial sweetener users, listen up. To meet this weeks challenge, I’m asking you to stop adding artificial sweeteners to...
Do you ever feel like this? You know what you need to do to take care of your health. You may even be an expert at preaching it. But you find it’s a lot harder to actually do it. I know I’m far from alone when it comes to this disconnect between what we know and what we do instead. It’s frustrating, isn’t it? Well, I don’t know about...
In a previous post I explained why the emotional freedom technique and tapping works. I also mentioned my own early experiences and transformational process with the help of basic EFT. If all I ever got out of it was dumping years of emotional garbage, it would have been well worth it. Let’s face it, that’s HUGE! But that is just the tip of the iceberg. In the last few...
We ‘tappers’ know that EFT works. And as silly as it sounds, we’ve seen it work for a wide variety of issues, so many that some professionals poo-poo it because they think such a claim can’t be true. It’s been hailed as a pain reliever, performance enhancer, trauma buster, and health improver. Now, thanks to the efforts of Dawson Church, author of Genie in Your Genes and other researchers,...
How often have you heard someone or yourself say, “I’m an alcoholic, I’m diabetic, I’m obese, I’m disabled. I”m depressed.” These are just some examples of the way we identify with a health condition. But, you say, it’s true, I am _____. Are you really? Is that WHO you are? Is that the truth you want to affirm about yourself? Or is it just part of what you are...
We’ve all been taught to expect that healing takes time. Not only does it take time, but depending on your condition it takes a prescribed amount of time. For the most part, it appears this is true. We expect a cold to last for a week or two. Broken bones are in a cast for a set amount of time. So imagine my surprise when my son Sean...
In this day of medical specialties for just about every organ, system, part, and disease, it’s easy to see how we’ve fallen for the belief that we’re a collection of parts that need to be treated separately. The mechanistic model is the basis for the medical system we have today. You use drugs or surgery to suppress or remove symptoms from an affected part. This may work great for...
This is the seventh in our series of ten limiting wellness beliefs. To read the entire series, subscribe here. “It’s God’s will” was one of my favorite sayings whenever my life was going wrong. Of course, it is possible that my misfortune was an act of fate or divine will. (Funny how I never said “It’s God’s will” when things were going great.) As I was growing up, I...
(subscribe to this series) Many of us have ‘deserving’ issues that show up in a lot of ways. You may feel unworthy, not good enough, or undeserving. This belief shows up in all areas of life: relationships, finances, love, health, happiness, you name it. Chances are if you feel that way in one area of your life, it’s spilling over into others. This limiting belief may be tied to...
(This is the fourth of ten beliefs in our series.) The belief that “I can heal all by myself” really is true. You can, and do, heal yourself all the time. All healing is ultimately self-healing. The mind can instruct the body to heal, even instantly. Cells that are malfunctioning can become healthy again when their environment becomes healthy. So why is this a limiting belief? Quite simply, because...
