CHIA PETS PRODUCE AMAZING OFFSPRING


There's a forgotten discovery from the Aztecs that's making a resurgence and with good reason. It's filled with vital omega-3s, minerals, and fiber. In fact, I think it's the answer to some of the biggest dietary challenges we face today—since it gives you so much of what the modern American diet is missing.


The food I'm talking about is chia seeds. It amazes me that such tiny seeds, scarcely bigger than the tip of a pencil, can have such a huge impact on your health. Remember chia pets from the 1980s? Who would have thought the seeds would contain such amazing healing properties – one of the richest foods known to nature.

As the Aztec and Mayan secret to good health, chia seeds are rich in omega-3s which are vital fats that support your heart, blood pressure, brain function, immune system, joints, and more. But unfortunately, the average person today gets just one-sixth the omega-3s as people in the 1800s. Most of us today are eating too many omega-6s and not enough 3s but now we can get all the omega-3s we need with this tiny seed.

Chia seeds give you 3.4 grams of omega-3s per serving. In these tough economic times, it's nice to find a single food that gives you so many of these healthy oils. These tiny seeds are also an energy-boosting powerhouse. The outer layer of the chia seed is made of soluble fiber, which slows down the release of glucose into your bloodstream. Glucose is the primary energy source used by your brain, nervous system, and muscles.

So….just two tablespoons give you an amazing supply of vital nutrients—and energy!

YOU CAN BE HAPPY NOW


I think Happiness is the most important thing in my life…don’t you? If we don’t have happiness….what do we have? We’re here in this world to be happy…to experience life to the fullest and realize who we are and why we’re here.

The sad part of life is when I see people delaying their happiness. I hear comments like “When I get out of college, I’ll be happy” or “When I get married, I’ll be happy” or “When I retire, I’ll be happy.” If we delay Happiness, then we will never be Happy and we will go through life on autopilot. We can be Happy right now….this very moment. The Buddha said, “There is no path to Happiness; Instead, Happiness is the path.

Think about it….what are the things that make you Happy. Treasure them and appreciate these things. This very act will make you a Happier person. Other things you can do:

Treat others with kindness
Be honest – don’t try to deceive others
Say something positive (or nothing at all)
Help others accomplish their goals
Live life to its fullest – experience your life for what it has to offer

BE HAPPY…..JUST DO IT!!!

SOME PRACTICAL TIPS FOR LIVING IN THE “NOW”


Why do so many of us have difficulty living in the present moment? One reason may be that we don’t totally know, love and accept ourselves We rush through our lives and never ask “Where are we rushing to?” No matter where we go, there we are! Once we get down to the core of this issue and learn to know and accept ourselves, many of our pressing problems will be resolved and our lives with be transformed. People will respond positively to us because we have become kinder to ourselves.

Here are some practical tips for living in the present moment and are very helpful for us to use in our daily lives:

1. Be mindful of your breath. There is no need to use sophisticated breathing techniques - just pay attention to your breath. Try to breathe deeply and slowly….and enjoy the process. This is such an easy thing to do. Try it and see that your life will be more peaceful and calm.

2. Be mindful of your physical feelings. Ask yourself: how do I feel right now? Am I sitting in a comfortable position? Do I feel comfortable about the shoes and clothes I wear, and about the things around me? What is my body trying to tell me? So many of us go through our lives ignoring our feelings. One day the body will refuse to be ignored another minute and we will get sick. When we get in touch with our feelings on a day-to-day basis, we open ourselves to its guidance and valuable suggestions.

3. Don’t lead your life in a rush. Sometimes we are so afraid to be late for an appointment, job, etc. that we don't realize the world does not depend upon us for its survival. Of course, it is good to be on time but a wise person utilizes careful planning instead of rushing. As you plan your day, give yourself more time to do the important things and eliminate the non-important things as much as possible. It you have time to do the less important things in your life, do them. Otherwise, don’t rush. And if you ARE late for an appointment, don’t burden yourself further by feeling guilty.

4. Be grateful for the delays. When you are in a traffic jam or standing in a line, try not to be angry or upset. Realize that this delay is a gift. You have a chance to be alone with yourself for a minute or so, without being distracted. Watch your breath and physical feelings and try to relax. Think about how precious your life is and appreciate it fully. Smile to yourself. Look at people around you and know they also have this precious human life. In an instant, your tension will go away and you will get in touch with the joyous spirit of the present moment.
