Re(visions) #122 Courage and Support

Thursday, April 1st, 2010

Courage is the discovery that you may not win, and trying when you
know you can lose.”
by Tom Krause

I attended a motivational call this morning and we were sharing our
experiences and talking about how it takes a lot of courage to stop
thinking about doing something and just do it.  It means we might
make some mistakes and fumble around but that’s ok because this is
how we learn to do it better the next time we do it.

The other piece of courage is to engage a friend to help.  If they
support you, whether it is going to a scary appointment or making a
cold call, they are there as your rock and your back up.  What
great value that is in our step toward courage.

This Re(visions) is dedicated to my back up and my friend, Sue.

I hope everyone has a great long weekend.  The weather here is going
to be awesome.

Re(visions) #121 Celebrating Change

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

So we have realized that change is needed and we go forward with the
change.  We have created that support team around us to hold us
accountable, share wins, etc.
We keep our deep and meaningful “whys” in front of us and we are
affirming ourselves.
We avoid temptation by tapping into all this again and again until
it becomes second nature.
We see the change is good and we feel great about acheiving it. Can
you guess the next step?  I have
said before, do you remember?

Celebrate it!  Congratulate yourself! Tell people about it!  Buy
yourself
some flowers or go out with your loved ones and enjoy an evening
out.
Whatever works for you.  Just acknowledge yourself and your
accomplishment.

It feels great.  You gotta try it sometime. :)

Gluten allergies are on the rise.  Exact reasons are not wideley
known but many holistic practitioners feel that it is due to our
environment, how products containing gluten are grown, processed
and put into items we don’t even know about.

I found a recipe for some brownies that I want to share.  I haven’t
tried it but have tried similar recipes.

Let me know how it goes. :)

Re(visions) #118 Staying on Track with Change

Thursday, March 4th, 2010

Once you have realized that you want to make a change and you are
inspired to do so then your next step is to stick with the change
and stay on track.

What can you do to stick with it?  I have a couple of ideas that I
share with you.

I am stealing this expression from my Isagenix team, I don’t think
that they will mind - but I think that wrapping yourself in a
support team is one of the biggest steps you can take to
sustainability.  Ask friends, family, neighbours, co-workers,
whoever
you are comfortable with, to support you in your change.  Ask them
to challenge you, hold you accountable, share wins with them; do it
via email or via phone or Facebook.  Whatever works for you and your
support team.

Keep your “Why’s” in front of you at all times.  Your “Why’s” need
to
be deep and meaningful not superficial or material.  Who will this
change affect most?  What does it mean to you to make the change? 
What will your future look like once the change is implemented?
Great
questions, right!  Write them down and post them everywhere.  Keep
them in sight all the time.

Have confidence in yourself; affirm yourself.  Tell yourself that
the change is successful, not “will be” successful, “is” successful.
Present-tense postiviness. This will carry you through some bumps
along the way.

It is really frustrating to make changes and then not be able to
keep them up.  Try these ideas and see if they help.  Many doors
will
open for you if you can implement them.

Have an awe-inspiring week!

Jeanette Johnston

Fiber Facts:

 Fiber serves as a food for friendly bacteria.  When we eat
fibrous foods, we increase our friendly bacteria.  These in turn
will help to get rid of the unfriendly bacteria that wreaks havoc
in our systems, making us more susceptible to disease.  

 
 If we eat no fiber (a diet consisting of white sugar and flour,
commercial fruit drinks, chips, meat, pop, and milk), colonies of
poisonous bacteria form and crowd out the friendly guys, leading us
to experience bloating and a too-full feeling after meals. 

 

 High fiber foods are very filling, yet contain very few
calories.  Since we have to chew these foods more, we are less
likely to overeat.

 

 Fiber helps to regulate sugar.  Low blood sugar results in
depression and fatigue, which prompts us to eat more, possibly
gorging!

 

Sources of fiber should be varied and include vegetables, fruits
and grains to provide complete nutrients.

 

Most of my recipes include ample amounts of fiber, since I
encourage a whole food way of life.

Re(visions) #115 Pursuit of Happiness…isn’t that a movie title?

Friday, February 12th, 2010

Good Afternoon,

We are all trying to find happiness, aren’t we?  At least, I hope
we are all trying to acheive happiness.  Let’s make the assumption that
we are all on the same page and we are not just walking through life
doing nothing to try and make ourselves happy.

I think it is also fair to assume that what made us happy 10 years
ago or 20 years ago may not be what makes us happy today.  We
change as time passes and our circumstances change so therefore what we
want out of life changes.  As we become older we have more
responsibilities and more people to consider.  This makes our
pursuit slightly more complicated.  How can we make sure we get our
happiness and still provide happiness for those in our lives.  It
becomes almost a tightrope walk - a balancing act.

It is precisely the balance that I think is the key and is so
delicate to perform but necessary.  We can’t ignore our loved ones.
We can’t ignore our outside responsibilities but most of all WE CAN’T
IGNORE OURSELVES.  Isn’t that what happens sometimes?  We make sure
everyone else is happy and think it will all work out and we will be
happy because the people around us are happy - it doesn’t work.  In
the end when we stop pursuing our happiness we wilt as an
individual.

The ultimate pursuit of happiness is to do what makes us happy and
that action benefits the people around you.  If we are happy and
content then you are able to support our loved ones.  It is like the air
masks on airplanes - you are instructed to put your own mask on
first then tend to the people around you - you are making sure you
are able to breathe so that you can help others breathe.

If you can’t take that ultimate step then at least integrate some
little pieces of happy choices into your life so that you aren’t
totally forgetting yourself.  Work them in to your family plans. 
It will breathe life into your self.

Jeanette Johnston

Re(visions) #114 Friendship & Caring

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Good Afternoon,

Reach out to someone you haven’t spoke to in a long time; someone
whom you have been thinking about but couldn’t make up your mind to
call them or send them an email or send a card.
Make the decision today.  You will be giving a  very precious gift
that cost nothing but your time.
Go ahead, just do it!  :)

Re(visions) #113 Adventures

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

My cousin in England is a young, single male who has a short-term
life plan - great!  Even more great is that his plan is to work 6
months at home then take off for 6 months on a trip of his liking. 
Right now he is in his 6 month travelling stint.  He’s in South
Africa on - wait for it - a Surfing Tour.  Who knew they even
existed?  Not I, says the girl from the middle of a continent where
there are no swells and no surf boards.
So Neil has is travelling down the coast surfing, learning about
surfing and also interacting with the people of the various areas
and doing some charity work at the same time.  What a great way to
spend your time - doing something you love and helping others at the
same time.  Good on him!
While we might not have Neil’s flexibility we might be able to find
a way to plan an adventure for ourselves too.  Is there a trip you
want to take?  Is there something you want to try - like surfing? :)
Where can you fit it in to your schedule AND can you give back at the
same time you are partaking?
Intriguing questions - let’s think about it.

Re(visions) #112 Anne Frank speaks

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

With what is going on in Haiti right now and all of other tragic
things we see around us I thought this quote might inspire us to be
positive and forward-moving.
 
I also thought of a certain someone whom I admire, I just sent her
a card today (see info below about the card tool that I use) to tell
her that I was thinking about her;  I think that she lives up to
this quote.

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before
starting to improve the world.

I found the quote on a great site that was created to
make you - Smile; what a great motivation!

Re(visions)# 109 Criticism

Thursday, December 10th, 2009
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.”

 Theodore Roosevelt quote

 

Health is a large word.  It embraces not the body only, but the
mind and spirit as well;… and not today’s pain or pleasure alone,
but the whole being and outlook of a man.

Re(visions) #108 Greatness

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

 

Greatness is above all else, a state of mind. You need to believe in your potential and power before you can bring them to life. You need to feel like you are extraordinary before you can become extraordinary. I call this “emotional blueprinting.” To see spectacular results in your external life, you have to emotionally–viscerally–create a blueprint of your vision within your inner life.
