Love Is The Most Powerful Agent In Healing
A Quest for Well-Being
— Beautifully broken, soul stripped bare, fragmented heart, pain and despair. Tears will cleanse from deep inside, wounded by love, tormented by mind. Beautifully broken, seems so unfair, spirit is strengthened, through love and care. Life and it's meaning is yours to decide, emotional scars that will forever bind. Beautifully broken, so now you know, journey on, may you reap what you sow. Sword is strengthened by the heat of flame. Beautifully broken, there's no one to blame. ~ by Ray Sinclair Valeria interviews Dr. Lisa Billings — She received her Ph.D. in clinical...

Everyday Magic: The Power Of Nature, Creativity & Connection
A Quest for Well-Being

A Quest for Well-Being
— Throughout the centuries, psychiatric disorders have caused more emotional and physical suffering than any other human condition, yet despite modern advances in neuroscience, the underlying cause of these perplexing conditions remains unclear. Also lacking is an understanding of the manifold ways that the underlying driver of mental illness can affect physical health. However, all of that could be about to change thanks to God’s grace and the tireless efforts of the many clinicians, researchers, and thinkers around the world who have continued to probe virtually every aspect of human...

Emotional Resolution: A Simple Path To Well-Being
A Quest for Well-Being
— Our body keeps somatic traces of all our traumatic experiences. When exposed to a stimulus that reminds the body of a past danger, the viscero-somatic memory linked to this danger is reactivated, creating the base of a disruptive emotional response. Emotional Resolution — EmRes® — helps the body recognize that the perceived danger is nowadays obsolete. EmRes® allows the body to integrate traumatic information and to tune-in to our current reality instead of reacting through a past memory. To do this, we commit to experiencing the viscero-somatic response, without controlling...

Mindful Eating: A Deeper Awareness Of Your Eating Experience
A Quest for Well-Being
— Mindful eating is more than just chewing your food slowly; it's about cultivating a deep awareness of the entire eating experience. Mindful eating is paying attention to your food, on purpose, moment by moment, without judgment. It is an approach to food that focuses on your individual awareness of the food and the experience of the food. It has little to do with calories, fat, protein or number of carbohydrates. Always come back to the basics: Breathe and check for hunger. Assess your food with all of your senses. Slow down, place your spoon or fork down between each bite. Investigate...

The Love For America, Faith & Truth
A Quest for Well-Being
— “When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child. But when I became a woman, I put away childish things.

Seeds Of Healing: Nature, Acceptance, Resilience
A Quest for Well-Being
— When we go through trials, we end up dying to some part of ourselves, and that not only carves us into a new person with greater resilience and capacity for change but also one who understands that death on all levels is simply another rite of passage. As we walk through the dark places in our life and accept our losses, we die to what the ego and mind mistakenly think is the best life path for us. The darkness helps us touch into our vulnerabilities, and each loss allows us to die just a little more, so that when life takes from us, creation brings something new into our lives. Any life...
info_outline“It took me many years to identify a life of purpose that is unique to me. My sun shines a little brighter each day, and every single day is filled with huge excitement, trust, and so much to look forward to.”
"We like confidence because it feels good and it gives us a sense of control. The alternative would be constant anxiety.
To notice that voice in our head that running assessment we all have as we go about our lives. It’s way too critical.
We beat ourselves up for every perceived mistake.
What if Self-compassion gives us the benefits of self-confidence without the downside of delusion?
Self-compassion encourages us to acknowledge our flaws and limitations, allowing us to look at ourselves from a more objective and realistic point of view." - Eric Barker
