Hi everyone! Janet has posted a few entries on Lyme Disease lately and I thought it might be cool to include links to some of the sites and articles that we’ve found helpful in our research…

I’m back with another book recommendation…
The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz
This is another one of the books that made a major impression on me a few years ago. I suggest it to just about everyone I know since a lot of people struggle with the same issues I did. Here’s a quick preview of the four agreements:
1. Be Impeccable With Your Word
Speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love.
2. Don’t Take Anything Personally
Nothing others do is because of you. What others say and do is a projection of their own reality, their own dream. When you are immune to the opinions and actions of others, you won’t be the victim of needless suffering.
3. Don’t Make Assumptions
Find the courage to ask questions and to express what you really want. Communicate with others as clearly as you can to avoid misunderstandings, sadness and drama. With just this one agreement, you can completely transform your life.
4. Always Do Your Best
Your best is going to change from moment to moment; it will be different when you are healthy as opposed to sick. Under any circumstance, simply do your best, and you will avoid self-judgment, self-abuse and regret.
I think the most amazing thing about this book is even if you feel like you’ve got it all figured out, it will still teach you something. Ruiz has an amazing understanding of how we develop the beliefs that shape the reality we accept as truth and I have yet to meet anyone that doesn’t recognize one or two that surprised them and that they found it helpful to rewrite. So, check it out and pass it on.

The Secret…
Hi everyone, I realized today that I have not yet posted anything about The Secret. Many of you out there probably already know what it is, but for those who don’t or need a reminder…
We encourage our clients and friends to watch or read The Secret because it ties in so closely with our work. The “Secret” is that of the Law of Attraction. I was told about this law about 3 years ago while seeking a more intentional way to live my life and that’s exactly what I found. I say it is so closely related to our work because it teaches that our thoughts, emotions, and beliefs about the Universe around us shape the circumstances that we “happen” into in life. This is a pretty big concept which is why it’s great they created a DVD that so greatly explains it with really good visuals, but when you break it down it’s really about learning how to manifest what we want to manifest whenever we want to manifest it. I know, I know, it sounds too good to be true, but that is the first belief you have to break in order to get started – that this can’t possibly be true, that you can’t just think things into existence, it’s crazy talk! And yes, that’s true if you believe it is. One of my favorite quotes – and you all know I have a lot of favorites – is by Henry Ford. I found quite a few versions of this online so I hope I have the correct one (if not, comment and let me know )…
“Whether you think that you can, or that you can’t you are usually right.”
~Henry Ford
I don’t know if Henry Ford knew the Secret or not, but that’s not really the point of me posting this quote. My point is this: whatever you have set in your mind AS your reality IS your reality. So why not take a step in a very enlightening direction and make those thoughts and ideas work for you – stop telling yourself that you can’t or that xyz could never happen to you and start doing the opposite… believe that all things are possible, that something amazing is just around the corner. Stop being scared of facing disappointment and realize that even if that “something around the corner” isn’t around that very next corner, it will be around one of the few thousand you’ll turn in your life. It’s really a much happier and fulfilling way to live.
So, that being said, I challenge you all – go to the Secret website today, get the online download for $4.95 or invest in the DVD or the book and give it a try. I’d love to hear some stories of the amazing things that happen once you do.
Have a beautiful night, everyone. Tomorrow’s going to be the best day!
Shari
