What YOU Focus on GROWS.

 

JOYFUL RESOURCES: TOOLS FOR EVERYDAY ENERGETICS:

What You Focus On GROWS.

What Are You Watering: Weeds or Wellness, Traumas or Triumphs; Horrors or Happiness, Stress or Success?

What you focus on grows, and whether we totally understand this or not, it greatly affects each and every one of us every day. I invite you to Challenge yourself and find out what you are watering. In terms my children like “Are you making doodoo or dreams?”

Take note of whom and what gets your attention. What are your predominate thoughts, feelings and actions? Which is your dominant perspective – cup half empty, cup half full, cup running over, what cup?  Answers to these questions will show you which end of the spectrum you occupy more – the worry, overwhelm, depressed, hopeless, frustration end, or the appreciation, ease, enthusiasm, prosperous, happy end.

So what are you watering? If it is what you want more of – fantastic keep doing what you are doing. If on the other hand, you’re watering what you don’t want, then time to move your watering can by shifting your focus onto more of what you want.

Some simple “watering” tips
1. If it doesn’t feel good, then don’t water it! Focus on it as little as possible, and as soon as possible, focus on something that does feel good.

2. Listening to negative people and/or news shows, and participating in negative conversations, allows others to water your weeds. If you don’t want to get more of what you don’t want, then stop listening and participating in these types of conversations. Otherwise your weeds will grow fast and strong.

3.  Spend as much time as is possible thinking about and doing the things that make you happy. You are watering what you want more of.

4. Surround yourself with positive, happy, people, and not only are you watering your wellness, but so are they. Your wellness is on automatic sprinklers, and what you want grows exponentially fast!

Conscious “Watering” (focusing) puts you firmly on the path of being able to create and live your best life.

DROPS OF JOY – You Are The Master Of Your JOY!

 

INSPIRATION: DROPS OF JOY:

“I am the captain of my fate.  I am the master of my soul”.
William Earnest Henley, 1875

This quote really speaks to me, because it is so empowering and liberating!

When you realize that NO ONE other than yourself can truly determine how you feel, you are free!

Free from feeling like a victim, free from oppression, free from limitation, free from simply being a human reaction to life circumstances.

Sure it is easier to be joyful under joyful circumstances,
yet ultimately you can choose to be joyful under
any circumstances.

NO ONE can take your happiness, joy, or ease away unless
YOU CHOOSE to allow them to.

YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR MIND
YOU ARE THE MASTER OF YOUR JOY!

Are you mindful in your mastering?

BE THE “BUNNY” – ENERGIZER BUNNY THAT IS

JOYFULLY HEALTHY: A TIP FROM SUNDARA

Be the “Bunny” – Energizer Bunny that is.

Energize your cells, body and mind in a matter of minutes with my “SUPER SMOOTHIE“. Over the nearly 17 years of my professional holistic medicine career, there are a few wellness  tools that reign supreme. Providing the body with consistent, concentrated, easy to digest nutrients is one of these supreme wellness tools. One of the easiest ways to do that is with Smoothies.

SUNDARA’S SUPER SMOOTHIE
(move over energizer bunny)

Basic Recipe:

8-20 oz    of      One of the following three options:
1. Filtered Water
2. Filtered Water AND Aloe Vera Juice (Lily of the Desert, organic, no preservatives)Ratio: water 4 parts & aloe 1 part.
3. Rice, Almond, or Coconut milk AND Filtered Water.
Diluting the milk lowers sugar intake. Ratio 1 part water & 1 part milk.

2 TBSP               2 Heaping Tablespoons of Brown Rice Protein Powder
(plain, vanilla, berry, or chocolate)
It is wise to alternate quarterly between rice and other types of protein powders.

1 Cup                  Frozen Berries or Frozen Fruit of Your choice or 1 Banana.
Berries add a sweet taste to the smoothie  as well as provide beneficial bioflavonoids.

½ tsp  – 1 TBSP     Greens in Powder form – Alfalfa Juice, or Barley, or Wheat grass

1-2 TBSP                Flax Oil. Refrigeration required. Shake well before each use.

FOR EXTRA ENERGY ADD:
1 – 4 Cups                         Fresh Leaves of Spinach, or Chard, or Kale

**Don’t worry you won’t taste the “green” – the frozen berries/fruit are the dominant taste. If not, then add more fruit to your smoothie. Smoothies are Supposed to taste GOOD!

Requires a Blender or Vita-Mix type appliance. Put the ingredients in the Blender, put the lid on (less messy that way) and blend until it is the consistency you like. If it isn’t sweet enough, you can always add more frozen berries or fruit.

For thicker smoothie add less water and/or you can add rice/almond/coconut yogurt. For a less thick smoothie, add more water.

Many people enjoy their smoothie as a meal replacement – especially in the morning. Others enjoy having their smoothie 30-60 minutes before or after a workout. The Super Smoothie provides concentrated, easy to digest nutrients, and with one smoothie a day, you are likely to notice more energy within 3-10 days.
Soon, You too will be an energized happy hopper :-)



 

ENERGY – THE ELIXIR OF LIFE

FEATURE ARTICLE:
Energy – The Elixir of Life.
Are you drinking your daily dose or simply pouring it down the drain
?
What does energy mean to you and your everyday life, and how are you utilizing it? When I talk of energy, I’m not speaking of electricity, satellite signals, or radio waves. I am speaking of the Energy that truly makes us who we are. Quantum physicists have proven that energy, in the form of information-filled frequencies, makes up all aspects of who we are, and our world around us. Skin, bones, thoughts, and feelings are made of unique frequencies. We are, energetically speaking, a conscious, complex, dynamic matrix of information-rich frequencies. This energetic matrix contains the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual facets of who we are. Like our finger prints, each individual has his/her own unique frequency signature, and without this energetic matrix we do not exist. Energy truly is the Elixir of Life. Are you utilizing your energy optimally to create the day, health, and life you desire, or are you wasting and misusing your personal energy?

Most people unknowingly waste and misuse their individual energy. Compare it to winning the Mega Lottery worth $370 Million dollars. That is enough money for you and your loved ones to comfortably live the rest of your life, but not knowing the value of the money, you and your loved ones burn the bundles of Ben Franklins as a way to heat your home. Unknowingly, you are wasting and misusing the very thing that could provide you with what you want. The same is true of your personal energy – albeit not quite as vivid a story.

You may be saying “Great, but how does this affect me and my everyday life?” Bottom Line: Drink your elixirto create optimal wellness, happiness, and abundance. Pour your elixir down the drainand create/perpetuate disease, unhappiness, and lack. The quality of your life is critically affected by how you choose to use your energy elixir. Become more aware of your personal energy and how to better utilize it, and you will become the director your life.

Through a series of feature articles, “The Energetics of Everyday Life,” in my Newsletters, I will share simple, yet profoundly effective tools that enhance your ability to make the best use of your Energy, and ultimately create and live your best life. No need for a PhD in Quantum Physics or Human Physiology in order to better utilize your energy. You just have to be willing. Ask yourself “If I try the suggested tools, am I willingly to be pleasantly surprised by the outcomes?” Simple, yet it creates a necessary opening and shift in your awareness.

THE FIRST TOOL: BE WILLING TO BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED.

First, start each morning by saying aloud I AM WILLING TO BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED TODAY– Don’t over think this. It doesn’t matter by whom, what, where, or how, you are pleasantly surprised. What matters is your WILLINGNESS to be pleasantly surprised. Second, make a conscious effort, as your day unfolds, to notice any and all things that make you smile.  As the days pass, the number of joyful moments occurring each day will be more frequent, and you will be pleasantly surprised by the life circumstances that have found their way to you.

Your willingness and refocusing will start to shape and shift your days in a positive manner – filling your life with more ease and joy.

Until next time, Congratulations – You have started Drinking your Elixir- Enjoy!
