Can one be happy and stay positive in such a stressful and challenging world? My friends and I regularly answer to the top of our lungs with an affirmative "yes!" at the end of every laughter session we have together, often times daily. We laugh for no particular reason except that of feeling happier and healthier. No jokes. Most of the people we know are stressed out to varying degrees. Many are depressed. Others prefer to be angry and vindictive. Considering the current state of the world we live in it is easy to understand where they are coming from. Very few things can make people laugh while hundreds can make them frown, howl and cry. The lives of my friends cannot be described as easy. Some...

There is great debate today over herbal remedies and whether or not they truly can treat illnesses and other health issues. While a blanket statement that all herbs are effective wouldn't be true, there are some herbal remedies that have proven to be extremely effective in treating certain ailments. In this article, I'll dig a little deeper into the world of healing herbs and how you can use them to improve your overall quality of life. Healing herbs have been used for ages to relieve discomfort and provide treatment to the sick. In fact, herbs such as castor oil, mint, and garlic have a long history of being used as remedies.

There are several herbal remedies I have found helpful for occasional insomnia. One of my favorites is chamomile flowers, brewed as a tea and sipped warm. It is a very relaxing beverage, and is often all that is needed. (It is also soothing to the digestion.) To prepare the tea, add to freshly boiled water, and allow to steep for 5-10 minutes. It may be sweetened with honey, if desired, and honey compliments the taste of the chamomile very nicely. If you are allergic to flower pollen, or ragweed, you may want to try a different remedy, as the flowers may set off your allergy. An alternative herbal remedy, with a stronger sedative effect, is a combination of the herbs Valerian Root, and Hops; I...

Are you distracted? In good times, it's easy to add tasks, meetings and products or services that are not in harmony with your real mission. Check through everything that's happening right now and see where you are wasting energy. That's usually a great step. Personally, I review this every week. Are you FIT? FIT means that the strategy, structure and culture of your business are working hand in harmony. Sometimes the strategy is going somewhere but the structure and culture of the company are leading elsewhere. That can save you massive amounts of energy too. People Skills Stressed people are expensive. They don't work at their best but still consume resource. Has the pressure mounted to such an...

There are levels of leadership, just like everything else. The company can't grow larger than the vision of the leadership, so, there's a real need to stay visionary, stay grounded, and stay mobile. At first this sounds contradictory. But it's not, It's inspirational. There are three things you need in life in order to live successfully as an entrepreneur without greed. Those three things are what I believe to be the three most important outcomes of my own self mastery journey. Those three things are: 1. Unflappable sense of personal presence here and now. 2. Inspiring and challenging vision of a great future to create what you want... 3. The ability to stay on track no matter what... These three...

I suppose that all mainstream music in America has rhythm. How does the beat in music affect you? Does it cause you to tap your foot, bob you head, or dance a little bit? Does it do more than the obvious? Why do businesses use carefully selected music to help accomplish their purposes? The beat in music can be followed in a quiet way or it can be brought to varied levels of volume and sound with percussion instruments, like cymbals, drums, tambourines, shakers, and so on. Even the guitar is considered a rhythm instrument. Because of my lifelong interest and involvement with music started out with rock-n-roll, this is a focus on the rock beat. In discussing the rock beat we need to have a basic...

Head-banging, screaming, shouting, grunting and sometimes inaudible lyrics are often descriptions which are assigned, perhaps somewhat unfairly, to the genre of heavy metal music. But the artists who front these metal bands are usually as accomplished singers as someone who will appear on stage and sing rock, blues or Opera. It is just a different end product, different skills and the fact that metal keeps going strong and is much loved, is a testament to its ability to touch people. People continuously want to know how to sing metal too, and there is more skill than may be apparent to the untrained ear. To emulate your favourite metal singer, and the likelihood is that you will already have learned...

Why meditate? You may already understand that it is very relaxing. In fact, try the simple meditation in this article and you'll feel more relaxed in just a few minutes. But there are other good reasons to meditate as well. Here are three of them. Stress Reduction The relaxation effect of meditation is not just a temporary thing.

Given that stress has been implicated as a contributing cause to over half of modern illnesses, this isn't a small matter. The bottom line is that it is good for your health. But stress reduction isn't just about health. It is also about quality of life and...

Many people consider age as one of the reasons why the brain fails to do what it usually does. When there are things that you do not remember or when there are instances when it takes time before you can process the information, you blame it on aging. But research has now shown that mental awareness does not necessarily stop or slow down because of aging. There are ways by which mental alertness can be enhanced. One of the ways by which this can be made is to ensure that at least you get eight (8) hours of sleep regularly. You must set your body clock at a rhythm so that this can be achieved. From the researches done, it has been shown that mental growth happens during the sixth to the eighth hour...

When it comes to sharpening your mental awareness there are quite a few things you can do. This is not about sitting around reading hundreds of books or taking tests to become "smarter." This is about learning how to keep your mind healthy and fit so you stay sharp and fast mentally as you get older. The brain needs to stay challenged to keep its quick awareness. It also needs to be fed the right foods and get the proper rest. Once you know how to take care of your mind the right way you will not only feel better now, you can keep it up for the rest of your life. Sleep Creates A Healthy Mental State Sleep is one of the most important aspects of a clear mental state of mind. Without enough sleep or...

Not everyone knows that when you walk into a store where there is music playing, your heartbeat matches the music in about four to five minutes. The human body is hard wired to respond to sound. And there is no off switch. The sound around you goes through your body faster than it goes through the air. We hear with our whole body, inside and out. Dr. Alfred Tomatis, the great ear, nose and throat specialist of the 20th century, called skin "undifferentiated ear." Dorinne Davis, an audiologist who founded The Davis Center to continue and expand Dr. Tomatis' work, states, "Every cell is a sound resonator. New research indicates that nerves transmit impulses of sound, not electricity. Every cell emits...

The first time I enter the concert hall I am greeted by an explosion of sensory input, Indian music fills the room, hundreds of people are milling about and there is a small marketplace at the back of the hall with devotees selling a wide variety of spiritual products to eager buyers. All the activity reminds me of the fabulous chaos of India and for a moment I forget I am actually at the Manhattan Center in the middle of NYC. Everyone is gathered for one purpose, to have a chance to be in the in the presence of what many consider a living saint. I find myself once again visiting the "hugging saint" Amritanandamayi, Ammachi or Amma as she is also called. Being familiar with the environment I feel at...

Well first thing you should know about singing bowls, is that they originated in Tibet around 1000 years ago. They appear to be based on similar items that have been found in Asia and India as far as 3,000 years ago, but they had a slightly different use then the singing bowls of the Tibetan's. The use of singing bowls in the Tibetan Culture is often credited to a sect of shamans called "Bon" who used them in their rituals. When they where first created, they were made of either five seven or nine different metals. The main metals that they used were iron, tin, copper, mercury, silver and gold. But it also believed that some of the first singing bowls also had metals from meteorites in them. Modem...

Background A jade-carved dragon, Tang Dynasty, Shanghai Museum The Tang Dynasty, with its capital at Chang'an (today's Xi'an), the most populous city in the world at the time, is regarded by historians as a high point in Chinese civilizationqual, or even superior, to the Han period. The Tang period was considered the golden age of literature and art. Stimulated by contact with India and the Middle East, the empire saw a flowering of creativity in many fields. Buddhism, originating in India around the time of Confucius, continued to flourish during the Tang period and was adopted by the imperial family, becoming thoroughly sinicized and a permanent part of Chinese traditional culture.

Courage to Know Oneself I have had a lot of fear in my life. Much of the fear started when I was nine years old and developed an unbearable fear of dying. I would lie in bed at night, knowing that I was eventually going to lose everything I cherished about being alive – especially life, itself. “Why was I born if only to die?” was the question that plagued me. I literally could not sleep at night. And I could find no solace from either of my parents. So I learned to deal with it by controlling my breath (I thought, “If I keep breathing, I will stay alive.”) – a habit that deadened my spontaneity and inner freedom for decades to come. This issue wasn’t resolved until I finally...

  “Some succeed by what they know, some by what they do; and few by what they are.” – Ebert Hubbard       Success really isn’t that easy to define, especially when it refers to a college student’s perspective of success. Success means many different things to many different people. Between ages, culture, finances, and ethnic groups, success can be classified in numerous ways. That being said, a student’s idea of what success truly is will constantly change throughout his/her life.    In my own life, I’ve had to fight for my education. Growing up in a strict religious atmosphere, I was taken out of school at the age of fourteen and had to work in my family’s business in a...

div class="googleright"> God gave me a new wife, Richard. I got a new better half. Her name is Shirley. You had 2 kids of your own 3, I had 3 of my own. And Shirley had two. And now you have 5.

Decor and the symbolism of Buddhism have been intertwined for centuries. Today, it is not uncommon to see craftsmen and souvenir shops dedicated to the Buddha.

It is now flaunted in homes and offices across cultures, societies and geographical boundaries. The most popular statues include: • The sitting posture • In deep contemplation • Laughing Buddha • Medicine Buddha • Meditating Buddha • Buddha on the lotus blossom • The self realized one • Abhaymudra or the one who has conquered all fear • Bumisparsa or the one ingrained in the Earth...

The Sacred Marriage book and video series by Gary Thomas remind us that marriage is not a "what's in it for me?" proposition. Instead, he suggests that the purpose of marriage is to become more like God and to deepen our relationship with God. He doesn't suggest that marriage is or should be endless romance, and is frank about the struggle involved, warning the reader, frankly, that being happy is not only not guaranteed but probably not the end goal. Central Theme In this series, Thomas makes the point that we are married to imperfect spouses!... "If you were to divorce your spouse, interview two hundred 'replacement' candidates, put them through a battery of psychological tests, have follow-up...

There is a renewed interest in Buddha Board lately. So, what is Buddha Board? It is also called an aquadoodle. It is simply a special canvas board using marker filled with water. Using the water marker, you can draw whatever you like on the special canvas. The drawing will appear but fade and go away slowly leaving you with a blank canvas again. The concept is very useful and practical both for children and adult. The children love to play with the board as it is easy to draw with water marker and the canvas will self-clean. For parents, there is no worry of cleaning up and it is very eco-friendly. For adult, the Buddha Board can be used as an expression of art that will disappear momentarily. It is...

Meditation actually is one of the least expensive and healthiest ways to relieve stress, and brain studies have actually proved brain function is improved by this relatively simple and calming activity. But in addition to reducing stress, meditation also has other benefits-which are all related to higher brain function, as well as how it effects unconscious function, such as digestion, blood pressure, and even infertility. Meditation is particularly helpful to people who have high-stress lives-which seems to encompass almost everyone. Modern life is stressful. Men and women are struggling at work, to pay bills, to care for children, to deal with everyday anxiety. Instead of taking a drug to calm us...

Who you really are is a soul. The soul uses the mind as its instrument to navigate through the world of form. And the soul itself is a spark of God, or the awareness of all that is, was, and will be. In this experience of being a person, one who is utterly unique, with no one else like you, you may wonder about your gifts. Your first gift, of course, is simply being alive. It is the gift of awareness. However, you also have gifts of mind, unique perceptions, strengths and talents that others do not have in the same way. When you focus on these gifts, you feel empowered. When you focus on what you didn't get, you feel disempowered. You have a choice: focus on what is unique and special to you...

Introduction The word Stewardship stems from the Greek word Oikonomia which means "the management of a house or household." It is the administration of duties or goods in one's care. It can be defined as the aspect of the church's administration, which deals with the individual's responsibility for sharing systematically and proportionately his time, talent and material possession in the service of God. We can trace this idea of stewardship from the slave and master relationship in the culture of the Bible. The slave master will appoint a slave to administer his household, which may encompass the teaching and disciplining of the children, other slaves and all members of the household. A typical...

To reduce the effects of stress in the workplace, take an emotional and spiritual, as well as a physical break, at least every two hours, preferably every hour. Here are five de-stressors you can do in thirty seconds each... 1. Stretch your hands, arms, and shoulders. In addition to unwinding the kinks, this exercise provides a good warm-up for any of the other emotional exercises.  Stand and hold your arms out to your sides so your body and arms form a cross. Gently bend each hand back at the wrist until the fingers point straight upward. Keeping your arms fully extended to the sides, with your fingers still extended upward, twist each hand and arm in a wringing motion as if you were operating a...
