With all that is happening with our health care issues today I can see how very much our services are needed to promote a more well serving health care system, which is what the Cosmic Nudge is about, balancing the body, mind and spirit.

 

So many clinics and services are available to us today, but whether it is alternative or conventional it is all so high priced that only those that are fortunate enough to have the money in their pockets to cover the cost are privy to the care and knowledge of these services. When in fact there are many ways for us to heal that are absolutely free.

 

It is time to promote more preventative measures to illness. Studies show that most disease stems from emotional issues. If we approach the care of each individual from a self healing perspective I truly believe that for most of us we would not have to be concerned about health care costs because each of us would be balanced, both emotionally and physically and not require the services of the health institutions and insurance companies that are out of control. To this end the government would not be involved and we would be taking more personal responsibility for our own health.

 

Many set back eat foods that are pretty much contaminated (fast foods, boxed foods, etc.), never exercise, make excuses as to why we can’t meditate or connect and then in turn blame our health issues on outside sources such as institutions that have only their monetary gain in interest, relationships and anything else we can find to blame.

 

It is time to take personal responsibility for our own health. It is my belief that this is the purpose of all that transpiring in our nation today.  We are now being given a choice to start seeking within or to continue seeking without.

 

I have had my own personal experience with self healing one of which is that I healed a double fractured neck without the assistance of conventional medicine. I did not have the money for the surgery so through meditation and talking with my body and cells I was able to mend my neck from only six percent usage to full usage. I have managed to make it almost all of the way through menopause in much the same way. I take no hormonal treatments I just balance myself through communication with my body. I can do this because I believe I can do this. So my message is this if you are faced with an illness that stems from your emotions, take the steps to do what you can to heal yourself. Let your heart guide you through the process. If you require support to assist you through the healing process seek out only the support that empowers you not enables you.

 

Some conventional medicine is necessary but we rely on it way too much for issues we could be dealing with ourselves. Some of the quotes below are some of most favorite regarding health. They seem to make all the since in the world to me.

 

When it comes to your health, I recommend
frequent doses of that rare commodity among
Americans—common sense.

~Vincent Askey, MD

Our body is a machine for living.

~Leo Tolstoy

Poor health is not caused by something you don't
have; it's caused by disturbing something that you
already have. Health is not something you need to
get, it's something you have already if you don't
disturb it.

~Dean Ornish

 

 

"The first peace, which is the most important, is that which comes within the souls of people when they realize their relationship, their oneness with the universe and all its powers, and when they realize that at the center of the universe dwells the Great Spirit, and that this center is really everywhere, it is within each of us."

Black Elk - Oglala Sioux

  There are many, many philosophies, diets, and folks that say there is only one way to achieve happiness and good health. We could spend months in research trying to find what would help us to achieve these things but for me I believe in simplicity and logic. I have never owned a set of scales to weigh myself and I was never exposed to the New Age Movement.

 

Since my exposure to the different ideas and educated myself on the New Age Movement and the many ways to keep ourselves healthy I have come full circle to my original and simple ways of belief of what is well serving. It’s basic, it’s simple, and it’s very logical.

 

The phrase we are what we eat carries much truth for me because as we have progressed into this fast paced, fast food, run around til you drop society we have become less healthy more stressed and more emotionally imbalanced as a whole. For instance Utah now leads in the prescription arena. We are prescribed more antidepressants that almost any other state in the nation. We are right up there with Oregon and Maine. In fact we are prescribed nearly twice as much as those in California and three times as much as those in New York and New Jersey. (ref. http://www.usatoday.com/news/health/2008-02-08-prescription-chart_N.htm).  Nationwide studies have shown that 164 million prescriptions for antidepressants were written in the U.S. in 2008. (ref. The National Center on addiction and substance abuse at Columbia University)

 

We are popping pills for everything. Just to name a few, we are taking pills for emotions, weight, blood sugar, chemical imbalances, behavioral problems, sexual dysfunction, and there are many more. So why is this? Well, if you do the research it isn’t hard to find an answer.

 

We are eating more out of a box and fast food stops and we are living our lives at such a fast pace that we are not taking the time to relax.  Rather than to eat our foods in the way our bodies were designed to digest them we combine our proteins and carbohydrates causing us to have stomach discomfort, diabetes, ADD, fibromyalgia, etc. Never mind the fact that our fast foods and processed foods are filled with things that are detrimental to the human body. 

 

We have become a society that have become followers of the ole might dollar and living at a pace that has raised our stress levels to devastating levels. This is wearing us out and  breaking down our immune and emotional systems and our community and family units. 

 

So folks here is my recipe for a happy healthy life,

 

1.               SLOW DOWN, take some quiet time and rest your mind and body every day. Just pick a time of day to take fifteen minutes for yourself. See sites below for information.

2.               EAT by DESIGN, eat the way your body was designed to. Strive to limit the combinations of proteins and carbs. You can pretty much eat what you want as long as you combine the foods correctly. Stay away from processed and fast food.

Here are some sites for more info:

3.               BALANCE YOUR EMOTIONS, Experiencing these emotions is a normal part of life but when one single emotion dominates, it brings your entire body out of balance and can produce illness. You can balance your emotions by taking time out, journaling, exercise, and just taking the time to breath though it. If someone or something is causing you distress look within to find the answer as to why. You are the only one that has control over you.

 

4.               THINK IN POSITIVES, if you train yourself to think in a positive manner you become stronger not only physically but emotionally as well. It also very catchy. Think in positives and watch those around you begin to do so as well. It produces a happy environment all the way around. If one chooses not to participate in your happiness then they will go where they are comfortable in a downer atmosphere. And that folks is okay!

 

5.               LOVE YOURSELF, even if it takes writing yourself notes and hanging them on the mirror for you to see every day do it. Tell yourself you love you and soon you will feel it. If you don’t love you then how can anyone else? When we love ourselves we attract LOVE. So go ahead and look in the mirror, look into your eyes and say I Love You!

 

With these five basic ingredients you can create a pretty happy and healthy lifestyle.

We have stepped into a new energy that has had us scrambling for a connection. In times past we could connect with our source much easier that we are connecting today. The reason for this is our light bodies have grown much lighter and the way we connect has changed.

We can find our new connection through and for each other. Being that we are more unified (whether we feel it or not) the creation process is such that we are able to gather together and place our energy with the intent for each other and be of service to the ones that we are connected to and ourselves at the same time. If we separate ourselves or become self absorbed we will find ourselves in a tail spin. But if we connect to each other we create a higher vibration or frequency.

For instance about a month ago I was trying to come up with ideas to make my own personal income without hurting the progress of the Cosmic Nudge. I approached the idea of finding a higher paying job and started looking through the paper then applying at locations throughout the valley. For two weeks I struggled with, what will I do for income to support myself and my child? At the end of the two weeks I got on the phone with a dear friend to talk about this problem and by the time we got off the phone we had created three opportunities for an extra income. Within just a few days my book was at the publishers and we were developing ideas for a website that will help bring us an income and help others at the same time.   My book will be out within a month’s time and shortly afterwards my next book will be well on its way. This happened twice within the same week with two separate individuals. So by connecting with each other we created several opportunities.

Other instances within the lives of others have also been  shared with me and each time an experience is shared the outcome is the same If they are not connecting with others they find themselves lost, depressed and feeling very alone. But once they reach out and connect everything flows much more smoothly. Remaining positive is very important as well, due to the fact that if we are creating these doom and gloom feelings everyone around us will fill it as well. We are affecting and feeling each other more so than ever before.

We are bringing to ourselves that which is needed by others and it is vital in the creation of the new world that we assist and support each other in our families, relationships and business.

As I walked through the local grocery store I watched and listen as I always do and in the isle just the other side of where I was standing I heard two women talking. They were talking about family events much like woman do but this conversation brought something to my attention.  As the chatting went on I picked up on words used such as energy, personal responsibility, loving them through it, being centered and balanced, etc.. It made my heart smile to hear such a conversation going on in the grocery store.
 

I had heard language like this a few weeks prior as I sat in a meeting with all of the other non-profits in the valley.  Two gentlemen that sat across from me as we ate lunch together were talking about where our country was going and what we needed to do to nudge it in another direction.
 

 Last year at this time this type of language was only being used by those involved with the metaphysical beliefs and studies. In just one year these words are being used by many from all walks of life. We hear it on the television and radio as well.  At every turn we are hearing people acknowledge energy, vibrations and oneness.  

 
With all that is going on in our world today there is as much positive as negative. It just depends on what you are willing to see and hear. I know there have been times especially lately where you have felt separated. Like you are in a different world and you can’t seem to find out how things work any more. I know this because I receive approximately 4 to 5 phone calls a day from you asking me what is going on.
 

Could it be that we are spontaneously evolving and your mind and body are just adjusting to this new world and a new self? Could this be what the ancient ones spoke of?
 

We are reaching a period in which our perception of time changes and we are no longer slaves of space, where owning space is no longer part of our way of living. Like the ancestors we are reaching a period where we release our illusion that time is linear and embrace the reality that time is only now and who we are today is who we are becoming in the future. As we evolve from our 3D notions and linear ways it can be an easy process or a difficult one. We have a choice to embrace it or fight it. When we fight it we begin to fill emotional and physical distress. When we flow with it and embrace it we see the beauty in all things and come to a place where we reside in our hearts and not our minds. We begin to feel our connection to all things and are able to bring our future selves into the now and make the changes in a more well serving manner for ourselves, all of humanity, and our planet.
 

This my dear friends is why the Cosmic Nudge was created. Our very purpose is to provide our community and those who are ready to flow with this evolutionary process and to live from their hearts. To provide a few tools and a comfortable space to step out of their 3D illusions in order to survive this time with ease and much less struggle.
 

So when you are ready we are here.
