Dressing For You

April 8, 2007 at 1:46 pm (Body)

Many people tend to equate “hippy clothes” with anyone spiritual in a new age sense.  The reality is that there are many people who are SelfSpirit followers who prefer jeans and t shirts.

While there are those who tend to favor the broomstick skirts and flowing shirts, there really is no set “dress code.”  There are some who favor the dark clothing that is generally associated with “goths” and “punks” while others enjoy and are comfortable in suits.

The key is being comfortable.  That’s it.  As long as you are comfortable, you will be more productive and open.

Even nudity is fine if that is your comfort zone.  (Please remain in your own home, though.  Most law enforcement agencies are trained to arrest nude people who are out in public.)

Your clothing comfort zone can change, and most likely will, on a daily basis.  You don’t have to wear the same style day in and day out if you don’t want to do so.

Be comfortable.  It is all about finding YOU.

Massage

April 1, 2007 at 3:56 pm (Body, Energy, Meditations, Self Therapy)

One of the key points to releasing energies, whether positive or negative, is massage. The stimulation of the inner energies via human touch is a very cleansing process.

If you have a friend or family member who is willing to give you a good massage, by all means encourage them to give one! Check here for some good massage oil recipes.

If you don’t have any available or willing friends, check out some day spa prices in your area.  Typically, these run pretty reasonably and once a week is a great gift for yourself.  Just relax into the massage and let your spirit flow freely, as this is a wonderful time for meditation.

Up until now, no mention of sexuality has been made.  However, if your partner is willing to give that massage, it is perfectly natural for your spirit to become so comfortable as to allow you to become a bit randy.  Indulge and enjoy, share the joy with your partner.

Feeding Your Body and Spirit

April 1, 2007 at 3:45 pm (Body, Energy)

In your path, you will find a great variance of suggestions in the food department.  People will tell you what to eat, how to eat, when to eat and, not surprisingly, you will eventually rebel.

The reality is that your self spirit will desire what makes you feel good.  For many, that definition is a struggle.  You see, it isn’t what makes you feel good RIGHT NOW that matters.  It is what makes you feel good on a daily basis.

There is no food condemnation here.  Quite the opposite, in fact.  Eat what you like, when you like it.  Your key is going to be moderation.  If you want to lose weight, moderate what you eat.  Simple.

Take heed:  moderation does NOT mean starving yourself.  That not only kills you, it kills your spirit.  Moderation also does not mean eating like a horse and then not eating for days.  And it certainly does not mean “super size me” in the least.

Moderation, then, is simply eating in correct portion sizes.  Did you know that a single serving of chicken, pork or other meat is 3 ounces?  That’s about the size and width (roughly, mind you) of a deck of cards.

Try taking the time to head over to www.sparkpeople.com and read everything you can get your virtual hands on.  Set up a diet plan if you like.  Eat correctly to nourish your body and spirit.

Don’t cut out your sweet treat fixes or your chips.  Read the package.  Eat the correct serving size, and don’t eat it all the time.  Save those junk food items for moments where you really crave them, and then eat the correct portion and take time to savor the flavor to rid yourself of the craving.

If you feel the urge to pig out on something, try pigging out on natural fruits and vegetables.   You’ll save calories and guilt.  Trust me, guilt is NOT conducive to inner serenity and you DO pass that emotion to those around you.

Taking care of your body will do wonders for taking care of your spirit.
