Blow Your Mind Today…and Tomorrow!!

Want your mind blown? Seriously let The Father take it all for the day. It is hard to let go of “plans”, “tasks”, etc…and you do not have to let them all go (dishes and laundry and cooking have to be done 😉 wink). I have tried my schedule for months, and I am not building… I decided to wake up Sunday and let it all just be as it would be: have a plan but if it changes, look up–ask–and go with the answer……..UNBELIEVABLE!

I did this well while a mother homeschooling, but the past few years while life transitioned before my eyes without my “permission”, I have struggled with letting go. I am guessing I was not letting go as much as I thought in the past, OR, most likely, I became comfortable with that level and it is time for some shake up. I do not do well with instability. I know this. With practice, however, and with constant listening practice (meditation mindfulness), I have learned to release the core issues ground deep in my core. With EACH release, comes more opening, more opportunity, more strength, more connections, more ease in letting go!!!

On two days, I had a timeline plan, and both days, I kept the voice loud that what comes into it will be (and the other things will be done later or switched around). I had time with my daughter Aimee I hardly ever get – 😉 big smile – just from letting the Jeana timeline go… I made two business connections that I would have never considered, and I had a conversation that helped a frustrated mother and she then built a marketing plan for me that will be instituted today. I am on cloud 9 with God and gonna just stay here a while! Oh, the biggest thing that has come out of all this: I will be OK with my husband’s career adjustments or timeline. There is a time and place for real needed change, and we will know when that is, when it occurs, even if it is difficult instability for me now.

I can do all things through Messiah who strengthens me — this is not doing my stuff, it is doing HIS stuff with the gifts he has given me.

Keep in Mind…

I will get right to it.

While going through life, and walking this earth, one must take into consideration some fine points about the human disturbances before putting out information to friends that something is toxic or not good for us or our animals.

I have recently heard some things about foods and plants that have me wondering, “what happened to research before you post”? What happened to “think before you speak”? What happened to “prove all things”, before forging forward explaining things as fact? What happened to reason?

okay, we cannot answer these questions, but I can make a few statements to get it turning back to thinking, reasoning, and researching again.

One: If one puts out the word that gluten is the killer of society, or gluten needs to be cut out of every diet, or the best one, “we are not supposed to eat bread”…let us go all the way back to the Bible. Jesus ate bread, yeast bread, wheat and barley bread. Now, forward, we have changed grains to where they are not what they were. JUST research this and one can find this to be true. If we buy grains from the best possible sources, and find them untainted as possible, most gluten intolerance would not be happening. Enough said on that because all I wanted to do was point out the fine point of research and then one can find the truth, not depending upon the doctors, pharmacies and media to inform you (lies and trends instead of truth). Another fine point to this has to do with not just the changing of our grains, but the changing of our dependencies, our farming, our living conditions, our lifestyles, our soils, and so the list goes on. Take all into consideration, as the Bible says, “and the truth will make you free” and this applies to our food too.

Two: If one says that your pets will die from a certain plant or flower, think twice or even three times. Flowers and plants are part of our world. If your plants are coming from a non organic source, such as a flower shop, then there is more to the story of what is toxic in the plant than just the plant alone. RESEARCH and find out the source of the plant. A plant from a flower shop (rarely are there organic shops), is a plant that has been created and farmed with chemicals and gmo, and has a history of poor genetics. The plant it NOT the problem, rather the junk in the plant is the problem. Do more research and talk to others with animals, both in organic farms, and in cities, to find out if they have heard of these things. Call vets from small towns. Get the point? Find out if it really is the plant that killed your pet (or made it ill), or if it was something else before spreading a scare to all pet owners that a simple lovely flower that a friend gave you in a vase, was the evil, and therefore “all” of those particular plants or flowers in the world are evil to your pets.

I can continue to give examples of things I have been sent or told, but I feel that these two get across the point well, that we need to reason, think and research before making blanket statements to friends. Our world is full of lies because of blanket scares or statements, in wellness and health.

Take care.

Massage Your Baby, and Reap the Benefits in Yourself

I have massaged my own children from birth, with techniques and patterns, and have reaped the benefits of it in more ways than I can count. I love massage and what it can do for people. Just think about how massage makes you feel when you have a good, solid, specified massage. I have had total lock ups in my core and QL (lower back), and other areas of my body, that have opened up completely after massage specified for the area of the body in need. Just think what this will do for your baby or child.

I am here, helping parents to learn to massage and nurture their babies. It is much more than learning strokes. It is a profound way to:

Help babies get off to the best start for healthy growth and development
Support parents’ sensitivity to their baby (i.e. the parents understanding of their baby’s emotions and cues)
Encourage parent-baby interactions and parents’ capacity to support their baby’s regulation
Support parents’ adaptation of strokes as their child grows
Reduce symptoms of postnatal depression
Relieve stress
Increase school readiness
Help the whole family get off to the best start.

Make an investment in a lifetime of benefits for your child and yourself. I say yourself because when your baby is healthy and happy, or calmed from symptoms or complications, you are less anxious and able to move through your days with confidence.

Register with me. If you are in a location other than Russellville, AR, contact me to discuss options (even to the extent of live video feed).

We cannot just give it up to “God”…

Hello. Hope you are all making this day worth something.

Today’s blog will be different, and more of a list of thoughts to ponder. Print them and share them.

We cannot just give it all up to “God”; Our Father, Creator, may be waiting for US to do something. He does lay things in our laps…he leads things to be the way they are, and sometimes we have a say, and sometimes we do nothing, and sometimes (hopefully more than not) we do all we can and then it is more a reward.

We prophecy things into being, in what we say, in what we tell others, in our repeating beliefs to ourselves, and our daily habits. We become relaxed and allow beliefs to become who we are, instead of who we are to be.

John 8: 31-32, The word does not bind us; it gives us liberty.

The mirror is the work of God; that is who we are. We need to be in the word to know the way. Hebrews 4

The only battle we have to win is our mind. Catch those thoughts. Who is leading your thinking?

If you are going somewhere, then there is NO time for wrong stuff and passive nothing. The blank mind provides room for the devil. Passive is killing us off. When we spray poison, we cannot plant flowers. Call it out. John 20:3

We all need to quit “don’t’n” and start “do’n”

signing off…be well, live well, eat well.

notes for life…evil and good

hello everyone.

You are amazing. You were made by a most wonderful creator. You have power to call upon at any time, at any moment, against any peril, for any blessing, and with Love that surpasses all understanding behind it all (or in front of it all).

I am sitting here, making supper, and listening to the mayhem in the other room coming from a movie. I will not name the movie, but it has been deemed one of the greatest book to movies.

I have always been mostly good at looking away from bad things, or not partaking in activities that were not exactly down a path that would be enhancing. The older I have grown, the easier it has been to keep away from music that was not pleasant to the ears, or say no to movies that were less than teachable. I became stronger in this after becoming a mother, taking every moment to be particularly careful of the things the kids watched and listened to, creating strong foundations in what was good from the early years, so that when they were older, they could choose well and with wisdom; this has worked well, yet they do fall to the “curiosity” of a great book series or movie that the world has deemed a greatness. I sit here with the sounds in the background, listening to encouraging music in my ears to wash out those sounds, and wonder, “what is so appealing about that stuff?” What is so intriguing about it all, all that the world makes up? I do understand that evil loses in the movie, but does it really? Those pictures and those words and that music will forever be in the minds of those who have viewed and listened to it.

Satan shows himself in full color in those books, movies, and songs; He grows strong with the weakness of the human spirit: power and wealth (whether in knowledge, money, or magic). He knows how the human mind can be deceived by that one word, “you will have all power”. This is a lie of course, but people still fall under the trance, thinking they know enough to keep the upper hand. The human mind has another flaw, as my troop in the other room watching that movie: that they can watch it, knowing it is fake, and not be influenced. Bhwahahaa! That is a bigger lie than the power lie.

I am here to say that it is possible to turn away, though difficult under all the peer pressure, family pressure, and social pressure. It is possible to be different, to be in the world and not a part of her. It is possible to have a good life without the those things. I do not miss any of what I do not take in, and sometimes I do not miss what I have taken in and figure out to be a “misguided influence”. I have to strive against these things daily just like everyone else, and yet, at the same time, the more I practice focusing on things that matter, the better I become at leaving the others behind.

Live well, be healthy, smile

LETTER BOXING

Letter boxing is awesome! I grew up in the great outdoors of the west, and I have raised my kids to be the same in the great outdoors in Arkansas. We are travelers, sojourners, tourists, and warriors. We love exploring, in many different aspects, in many different environments. I want to encourage you to do the same with your family. If you feel overwhelmed with this idea, then begin with LETTER-BOXING. This is a great way to begin the journey outdoors, learning about the communities around you, animal or people communities, city or rural communities.

We have found letter boxes, and some pretty creative stamps, all over Arkansas, South Dakota, New Mexico, Missouri, and other places when we think of looking while traveling. I have been out of practice for a couple years while my kids are moving into the adult world/college, etc, after being home schooled for their entire childhood (they went to college early and are doing well :))

OH! what is letter boxing, you ask?! It is a journey of clues, and detective work. It is about journalism and being creative. It is about stamps from all over the country and world. You create a stamp or purchase a stamp that is unique to you, that you take with you, along with a created or purchased journal, when you go out to find a letter box. You stamp the found journal and leave a message about you and where you are from. You can create your own boxes with stamps and journals and place them in locations also, but you have to create fun and inviting clues to find the box. If this is not making sense, just look on LetterBoxing.org and find out all you need to know. It was all started by a person in England who wanted to encourage people to get outside and travel, and “meet” (through the journal) people from all over the country and sometimes world. We had some people from China and other places sign our journals and find our boxes here in AR. It is such fun to go check your box, and check on other boxes, to discover those who have passed by and left their stamp 🙂

I am going to begin a letter boxing blog of the boxes I find and the places I find them. I will not give away location, but I will post pictures and the things I wrote into the journals I find.

Keep up with my Letter boxing blogs to find out where I hide my next one, or where I find one.

Anxiety, my new outlook upon it…

Anxiety. A real monster. A reality in life.

We have energy inside us, outside of us, around us, and through us. That energy is color and describes our demeanor.

I have recently realized to ask each day, “what do I want to be free of today?”

THEN…

The thing that I wanted to be free from may be just the thing that tethers me to a higher power. I can be free from the thing binding me, but at the same time, the thing tethers me to others who have the same “thing”. I can hold space for others in this “thing”; I can say to them, “you are not the only one.”

If I had not had the anxiety attacks, and the health manifestations that came with them, maybe I would not be as sensitive and know what to do with those people. RATHER, I can embrace the anxiety, the results of it, the worry and the results of it, the control issues and the results with them, and the abandonment issues and the issues with that (and all of this from childhood to now), and MAKE THIS MY MESSAGE. This is ME.

It is how we ride the things (the roller coasters, waves, etc.) we want to be free of, and the things we love, and all the things in between, that make the difference. The difference, as a counselor told me, is “as a piece of hair on our head; the diameter of the hair is the difference between terror and excitement.”

I hate roller coasters, and always have, and probably always will; they terrify me. I asked myself what is it about them that I hate…and that is where it all became clear, connected with the anxiety in my life, and described my relation with the anxiety. We all ride them differently, the things that terrify us, and yet something draws us to them at the same time. REPEAT THAT, it is profound. We all ride them differently, the things that terrify us, and yet something draws us to them at the same time.

Breath and Spirit are the same word in all languages and cultures on this earth, and in the word of the Creator (the Bible’s Hebrew).

Love others as you love yourself then takes on a whole new meaning: unselfish to yourself “as” (at the same time as) others.

Take care. Be healthy.

Moons

Look at the moon feel the peace. Full moons are energy; they pull up and recharge. Full moons revive gems and crystals, plants, people. Go out and be in the full moon. The next week the energy will be great, as was last week. Then it will begin to draw down, push into, and release for 14 days ish. It is a cycle, a beautiful cycle. Been doing this my entire life: looking up and around and down to retrieve the creation’s gifts to me. Outside is a great place to go when needing peace and release and The Father’s touch! (That is a daily thing, and in large doses).

ready for real change? want healing for your child?

I just spoke with a friend and a client. She did a hair analysis with me through the best lab (recommended in books) in the nation for this kind of test. She has been learning so much about herself, experimenting with taking things out and adding things in to her food and life and supplements. She just told about how she stopped taking her calcium this week and has felt so much better, and her heart was not hurting at all; she said is had affected her sluggishness during the mid day and other things, that are disappearing! The analysis results showed that she did not need calcium; she needed other things to absorb it (there is more detail in this if anyone wants more examples). I am just on a high for what can be done and how the body will heal anything given a chance. I had a convo with someone last night who has a daughter with tourettes, which is totally curable despite the pharma take on it. It is a disorder in the category of ADD and other things similar. It is a mineral/vitamin/nutrition deficiency/gut disorder. It can be fixed. It can be cured!! Please contact me if you want to change your life or change your child’s life. I am totally excited about having complete and total time to serve and learn. I am learning so much more than I have ever, putting pieces together I never would have put in the same puzzle. The body is AMAZING! THE CREATOR IS AMAZING. We are given the power to heal and be healers. Action friends. NOW BREATHE, just breathe. AND LISTEN. just listen.
