ARTICLE - The Inner Peace of Gratitude

According to Wikipedia, "the systematic study of gratitude within psychology only began around the year 2000, possibly because psychology has traditionally been focused more on understanding distress rather than understanding positive emotions." Given that, it makes sense that we are still learning about how to feel grateful. 
 
In my experience, it is definitely a practice. There are times that gratitude comes easy for me, and there are times that it can be hard to muster it up. 
 
It is worth the effort though, as empirical findings show that grateful people are more likely to have higher levels of happiness and lower levels of stress and depression.
 
Statistics from World Poverty report that "if you have a full fridge, clothes on your back, a roof over your head and a place to sleep, you are wealthier than 75% of the world's population.  As we prepare for this Thanksgiving holiday here in the US, I imagine that many of those refrigerators are overflowing. 
 
Gratitude is a perspective, and so it is a choice to feel grateful. When you review the evidence above, it seems like it should be second nature to feel grateful.
 
And, even with all the evidence, there are times in my life where it can be difficult to choose it. For example, when I have worked diligently on a project and the result is "less than" what I wanted, I often choose disappointment. And then I collect all sorts of evidence to support my disappointment. This, too, is my choice.
 
How do I shift from disappointment to gratitude?
 
  • PAUSE and feel where the tension is in my body, because disappointment always equals tension in my  body
  • Acknowledge the tension and breathe into it with the intention of releasing and relaxing
  • Remind myself that life is a series of experiences and it is ALWAYS my choice how to respond and learn from them 
  • Become present with the moment…note the food in the fridge, the clothes on my back, the home I am living in, and the bed I get to sleep in
  • Smile at my human-ness, and embrace the wild journey of life…living an organic and orgasmic life, that is.
 
May you find the gratitude in simple things today…being able to take another breath and experience another amazing day on this planet!

FINDING THE FUNNY - Choosing Hymns

There has been a need for extra funny lately…I will be posting articles and interviews soon! In the meantime, keep your laugh muscle working!! :-)

 

One Sunday a pastor told his congregation that the church needed some extra money and asked the people to prayerfully consider giving a little extra in the offering plate. He said what whoever gave the most would be able to pick out three hymns.

After the offering plates werre passed, the pastor glanced down and noticed that someone had placed a $1,000 bill in offering. He was so excited that he immediately shared his joy with his congregation and said he'd like to personally thank the person who placed the money in the plate.

A very quiet, elderly, saintly lady all the way in the back shyly raised her hand.

The pastor asked her to come to the front.

Slowly she made her way to the pastor. He told her how wonderful it was that she gave so much and in thanksgiving asked her to pick out three hymns. 

Her eyes brightened as she looked over the congregation, pointed to the three handsomest men in the building and said, "I'll take him and him and him!"

FINDING THE FUNNY - You are Never Too Old

Dorothy and Edna, two "senior" widows, are talking at the local coffee shop.

Dorothy: "That nice Joe asked me out for a date…I know that you went out with him last week, and I wanted to talk with you about him before I give him my answer."

Edna: "Well…I'll tell you. He shows up at my apartment punctually at 7 PM dressed like such a gentleman in a fine suit, and he brings me such beautiful flowers! Then he takes me downstairs, and what's there but a luxury car…a limousine, uniformed chauffeur and all. Then he takes me out for dinner…a marvelous dinner - lobster, champagne, dessert, and after-dinner drinks. Then we go see a show…let me tell you Dorothy, I enjoyed it so much I could have just died from pleasure! So then we are coming back to my apartment and he turns into an ANIMAL. Completely crazy, he tears off my expensive new dress and has his way with me…two times!"

Dorothy: "Goodness gracious!…so you are telling me I shouldn't go out with him?"

Edna: "No, no, no. I'm just saying, wear an old dress."

ARTICLE - A Planet Calling for Help

Our fulfillment with sexuality is a pathway to freedom in all aspects of our lives. It is our true nature. It is who we are at our very basic core, a beautiful and sexual BEing. And when we know this feeling, everyone wins, including the planet.
 
We have not been living according to our true nature. We have been faking orgasms and engaging in unsatisfying sex from both genders. We have been beating ourselves up for not matching up to unreal images of beauty in the media. This has led to an increasing number of sexless marriages.The vicious cycles that most people call their lives have created stressed based diseases, and a dependence on pharmaceutical medication to keep us going. The impact of this is being felt throughout the world and environment. It is a cause for the current messages from Mother Nature that have been devastating. She is crying for us to wake up and create the heaven on earth that is possible. We need to stop the insanity.
 
My approach is simple, but not easy. My system of the 5 Ps to peace, passion, and pleasure has been based on my own personal sexual healing experience with the chronic pain condition, Rheumatoid Arthritis, that led me on a 7 year study and exploration of orgasmic healing. Orgasmic Healing is real and was  documented over 100 years ago. The Victorian Physicians orgasmic treatment of women with the diagnosis of “Female Hysteria” led to the invention of the vibrator.
 
The need for us to PAUSE is NOW. Tune into your sensuality. Until we get back to living in the wisdom of our bodies and feeling our sensual and beautiful nature, our planet will show us that we are not listening to the right messages. 
 
The good news is that it is totally and completely possible, if we believe. If we embrace the power of pleasure. We have been resisting. Moving into sexual wellness and freedom will make all areas of your life feel in greater balance and abundance.
 
How important to you is your sexual well being? On a scale of 1-5 (5 being VERY important). If you said 4-5, then your time is NOW. 
 
Join me in creating a new world based on moving with the flow of our true natures and embracing every moment and squeezing the juice out of it. 
 
This is what I call “Living an Organic and Orgasmic Life.”
