Simple every day routine that will bring Joy, Happy Feelings and Love into your life.

cleaning and organizing your things

An amazing Japanese Lady, Maria Kondo, opened my eyes to a “WOW” Importance of cleaning and organizing our things every day. This routine as important as drinking water, or brushing your teeth! She incorporates JOY and GRATITUDE into the cleaning and organizing processes every time she moves. She reminds me of A Good Fairy Angel that we all know exist and protect us every day. After learning about Maria Kondo secrets I cannot go back! It’s impossible to go back! Her organizing techniques will stay with me for life. This is how we can change our lives for the better and create a better life in our families and on our fragile planet Earth. Much Love from the Good Life Template Peeps! Love

Marie has episodes of her work on Netflix and she wrote amazing books on the subject. We believe her purpose in life is to save all the humans and Japan, of cause, from the climate change devastation. Love

Resetting the Planet Means Resetting Our Food

By Deepak Chopra, ™ MD, FACP, Poonacha Machaiah, Rajnish Khanna, PhD

The way we eat has changed the planet. In this simple idea, which few of us consider when we go to the grocery store, lies immense hope for the future—if we pay attention. On the medical front a large number of people accept the notion, once thought of as a fringe belief, that “you are what you eat.” The decisions you make today about what you eat will have a huge impact in your future health. Food plays a decisive factor in modern lifestyle diseases like type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and all the damaging side effects related to the epidemic of obesity in this country.

The next step in our growing awareness expands on the same idea. The next bite you take adds to the health of planet Earth or pushes it a tiny step toward deterioration. Unconscious eating is bad for the environment. Conscious eating puts the planet on the road to renewal and wellness.

We can heal the environment by thinking from the ground up, quite literally. The health of soils around the world is essential to keeping the entire planet in balance. This truth has dawned with the rise of the word “microbiome,” which is gaining wide circulation. The microbiome is comprised of the genetic material of all microorganisms (bacteria, fungi and viruses) in a specific place, such as the human gut, in the soil, in water, or on the skin. Each local microbiome is intricately connected to other microbiomes, thereby linking all living organisms together.

Frozen

It seems like everyone is feeling frozen right now.  It is OK to feel frozen, this is what your therapist would say, because this is a simmering time before you start boiling or doing things.

We are going through a natural progression of things. There are new developments, the new and familiar things to do in the near future.  Keep praying, keep staying occupied and positive and we will get through this in a better shape then when we started it.

I had this thought today, I can do this better.  I can do this better.  I can learn how to do this better.  I can learn how to do this better.
