Family-Care is Self-Care

Image
 Family-Care     Self-care is important for your mental stability, physical ability, and your overall health.  Self-care is different for everyone.   Caring for yourself helps you to care for those you love.   I believe self-care, when you are married and raising children, is a joint effort which is dubbed "Family-Care".  Family care is creating a healthy life balance for all parties in your union.     Our families' care efforts begin each year with eating clean.  Eating clean is something we've done at the beginning of every year for several years now.  Eating clean promotes a healthy gut, kidneys, colon, spleen, liver, and other organs that hold waste from food. There are several ways to regularly keep these organs clean such as following a cleanse plan or fasting.  Our families' go-to is Daniel's Fast.     We began the Daniel's Fast which worked well with our household.  It was a healthy choice for a...

5 U's of Missed Opportunities

  Turn Your Missed Opportunities into Manifested Opportunities      Here's a little something to chew and ponder.  Opportunities are circumstances that allow possibilities to occur in our life (Oxford Dictionaries).  Those 5 U's opportunities are often missed resulting in unmanifested, untapped, unchartered, unmaterialized, and unrealized dreams.  Here's the thing when you decide opportunities are no longer knocking you become complacent.      I am here to tell you do not give in to common routines of life where just enough is enough.  Remind yourself that you are more than the common life.

You heard me, adjustments!     Stop letting the 5 U's of life rob you of life's happiness and joys.  Don't allow relationships to bring ugliness to your space.  Create a space in your life for positive energy only.  Choose to accept only those things that give you purpose, value, and aspiration.     If you are the problem then make adjustments.  Take a look in the mirror to say, "We are no longer friends, I am going to find myself a new friend.  One that values and loves me!"  Understand that if you don't value and love yourself no one else will and you will not reco...
