In the News

One of my Prescriptions for Living

It's very simple, but this is something I have adhered to for close to 10 years now:

Read and listen to positive materials only.

That's my prescription! In other words I have not read the paper, listened to the radio in my car or watched the news on TV. Think I get funny looks from people when I mention this? You bet. "How can you stay on top of what's going on in the world?" is always the first question I hear. Well, simple. There seems to always be some doom & gloom fiend that feels compelled to share the latest news story with me. Heck, I don't even have to ask.

To me, making the conscious decision what I bring into my life includes the media. Let's face it, it's pretty negative. When I think back to cutting the media ties for myself, a feeling of lightness came about. I am in control of what I invite into my life. Feels pretty good.

No more focusing on the negative. That's of course what I don't want--- so what's the contrast? to attract uplifting and positive elements I want for my life by way of a conscious choice.

Has the media left you hungry for something better?

Begin by choosing to read something awesome by Wayne Dyer, or Richard Carlson, or Louise Hay. Have a listen to a biography of a famous person. How about Ben Franklin, Henry Ford, or Shirley Maclean? All amazing people with wisdom and inspiration to share. Find a group with like minds you want to be a part of. Try yoga or join an outdoors club, walking club, sign up for ballroom dancing ( brownie points!) or go to a meditation group if that appeals to you. Now is the time to sign up for a class in something you have always wanted to learn, cooking, landscape design, sign up for ballroom dancing ( brownie points !)or learn calligraphy. Stretch yourself, and Grow! You won't look back.

So what amazing books are you reading?
