Think Like God

Have you thought about what you are thinking about?  When you wake in the morning do you sometimes find it challenging to be optimistic?  I realize that it may sound completely awkward to most people to, "Pay Attention To What You Are Thinking About."  If you are a believer, then you should be thinking like God.  I am still learning myself!  I heard Joyce Meyer talking today, so I thought I would recap some of her thoughts...

Your thoughts affect your entire walk through this journey called life, your thoughts affect your relationship with God and with others.  While others may form opinions about you God will NEVER have a bad thought about you, or if you are going to change things in your life.  God ONLY sees the possibilities for you and your life!  Isn't that great news?

Our behavior is a product of our thoughts.  We have all made mistakes.  We are not perfect, but our sins have been washed clean and our spirits have been renewed. We can live our lives in faith and get our relationship right with God.  What we do, or do not do does not determine who were are in Christ.  We can change and we can learn new things all the time.  We can be what we say we believe.

Do you like yourself?  We need to have a good relationship with ourselves.  Are you trying to be someone you are not?  God won't help you do that.

Spiritual maturity takes time.  I can attest to this!  My hubby has been working on me for years and after 9 years of a very happy, healthy, blessed marriage I am always growing, changing and evolving. I get "it" and I am SUPER STOKED!  God and my hubby are my saving grace!  God understands everything.  

Why don't we hear these sorts of things in church?  Well, I was raised Catholic and I personally cannot recall being led to dig deep and truly seek out a relationship with God.  I knew the stories of the Bible and I went to church, but I don't know if I could share much more with you than that.  Fear, pride and arrogance, can cloud God's desire to truly develop a relationship with you.  Pride and arrogance is when you think you are better than someone else, or something of the sort.  God is not afraid to tell you how wonderful you are despite your imperfections.  He's working in every area of your life, trust me.  If you think and act wrongly you will never be who God wants you to be.  

Jeremich 29: 11-13 "11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.12 Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."

The trumpets will blow, the skies will part and the arc angels will appear and everything is going to be fine!  God thinks you are wonderful!

God knows you even if others do not.  So, do not worry, do not fret, take one day at a time and live in faith.  Be peaceful, patience, kind, good, loving, joyful, faithful, humble and have self-control (the fruits of the spirit).

With Love,

Creating Balance

We live in an ever-changing world.  Finding balance can be one of the greatest challenges.  We are also in an era where information is available at our fingertips.  It can feel overwhelming at times because everyone has a thought and opinion about EVERYTHING!

One doctor will recommend a vegetarian diet, another doctor will recommend a meat, starch and vegetable based diet and the other doctor will recommend a diet that eliminates this, or that type of food.  What works for one person may not work for you.

Our bodies are all wired a little differently.  One person could tolerate eating animal protein 3 times a day, while another person would be better consuming it a few times a week.  The most important thing that you can do to live a long, healthy, happy, fruitful life is to find out more about your body type so that you can consume the types of foods that are right for you.  Assuring that you get enough sleep, some sunshine, or vitamin D, a regular daily routine, keeping stress to a minimum through regular exercise, yoga and meditation and surrounding yourself with positive minded people will all help as well.

For most people, elimination diets will fail.  For instance, most people would begin to crave certain types of food if one important food group was eliminated.  It is best to eat a well balanced diet that is also free of white flour, white sugar and processed foods.  If there are on-going health issues then there are occasions where doctors may recommend removing a certain food from your diet for a period of time which would allow the GI tract and the body the proper time to heal.  Once this is accomplished you can slowly re-introduce the eliminated foods.

The group cleanse begins on October 13th- October 26th!  It's only two weeks my friends, you can do it!

FDA sounds alarm on dangers of antacid drugs

If you are taking prescription drugs, or use any over the counter medications for health related issues, even for a cold, have they cured your condition? If not, it may be time to change gears.

44% of the adult population self medicates with antacids. Antacids lead to GI lesions. Long term, or regular use also shuts down the bodies natural ability to produce stomach acid. Talk about putting fire on fire. There are alternative methods that will not only heal the GI tract and restore health to the rest of the body, but there are also alternative methods in dealing with indigestion and they do not harm the body, or mind what-so-ever. Cleanse time- October 13th! Jenniefos@gmail.com With Love, Jennie

Healing The Digestive Tract

In medical school a doctor learns the normal's and abnormal's, how to "treat" the symptoms, but not cure.  1% of illness are cured by how doctors diagnose and while this helps it does not cure the underlying, root cause of the health related issue (s).  Prescriptions and over the counter medications, improper diet, lack of quality sleep, stress and a sedentary lifestyle all create imbalances in the body which then lead to more potentially serious health related issues.

If the GI tract is unhealthy and inflamed the whole body will feel it.  Health related conditions like, but not limited to: arthritis, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, candida overgrowth, sleep difficulties, allergies (even seasonal), asthma, cancer and the common cold all can be linked back to poor GI health.

The first thing you can do to fast track your way into an improved state of health is to cleanse the WHOLE BODY of impurities.  Join us for the group cleanse across the country beginning October 13th.  You can do it- it's only 2 weeks!

Thoughts Regarding A Cleanse

During a cleanse you want to eliminate foods that are hard to digest like raw veggies, animal protein, dairy, wheat, etc and keep things as healthy and fresh as possible. You also do not want to consume any stimulants, like coffee, or caffeinated tea.  Raja's Cup, which I carry and herbal teas like chamomile, mint and licorice root are great harmonizing and energizing substitutes.  Here are some reasons to avoid coffee: 1.DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone) is a steroid hormone that can decrease with the consumption of coffee. DHEA is responsible for cellular and tissue repair. It also enhances memory and cognitive function, protects against stress, and supports numerous physiological processes, 2. Coffee is a stimulant and increases the release of stress-fighting hormones, which are usually reserved for life or death, fight or flight situations.  Similar effects on mood and autonomic response are measured in the body regardless of caffeine level between regular coffee and decaffeinated coffee, 3. Coffee consumption (including decaffeinated coffee) releases an addictive neurotransmitter called dopamine. Dopamine is a pleasure hormone and when the brain is bathed in dopamine, it never forgets the source. Finally, Raises homocysteine levels – a major risk factor for heart disease, Raises blood pressure, Raises cholesterol, Increases inflammation, Is associated with heart irregularities,Can damage the nervous system, Interferes with neurotransmitters in the brain, Alters DNA repair, Increases risk of kidney stones, Lowers bone density in women, Interferes with sleep, Is linked to erectile dysfunction and Is linked to increases symptoms of gastric reflux and heartburn.
