Merry Christmas

It is the day to celebrate the birth of Jesus. Enjoy!!! There are three purposes of Christmas: Christmas is a time for celebration because God loves us, He is with us and He is saving us. Christmas is a time for salvation because He saved us from our sin, for a purpose, by His grace. And lastly, Christmas is a time for reconciliation. What kind of peace does Jesus give us? peace with God (spiritual), peace of God (emotional) and peace with each other

Healthy tips

These are my healthful tips for you, guys. I found this helpful. Here they are:

* Exercise regularly: some form of cardio at least three times a week! if you have a bike exercise at home, do that. You may jog. That is really good for circulation.
* Drink lots of water, it's mother nature's most versatile medicine. My husband taught about water therapy. Whenever I have headache, I just drink a lot of water. And I feel better. Water helps our circulate normally
* Get 6-9 hours of sleep daily. I really love that! haha I am a type of person that if I don't sleep enough, I get grumpy. I guess, that's one of the reasons why people get so sensitive and grumpy because of lack of sleep.
* Meditate- meditation is a good way to clean our minds and hearts. And as well as prayer.
* Buy locally grown, organic goods, preferably in season, as often as you can. Yes, as much as we can, we should get fruits and veggies that are locally grown or organic. They are usually expensive. But it's worth it.
* Nutritional supplements: whole food supplements, organic vitamins, Standard Process tablets, Alive! supplements, vitamin C
* Enjoy one hour of full exposure to intense natural sunlight on a near-daily basis with no sunscreen (important for vibrational nutrition and essential for mental health, bone density, vitamin D production, etc.) Yes, don't forget to wear sunblock. It is really important. To avoid, wrinkles, sunburn and most especially skin cancer
* No steroids, andro supplements or other questionable bodybuilding supplements
* No diet pills, stimulants or fat burning pills

Aluminum in deodorant

Aluminum is a common ingredient in deodorant and antiperspirant. It is linked to Alzheimer's disease, brain disorder, breast cancer etc. Aluminum compounds or aluminum salts, such as aluminum oxide are key ingredients in almost antiperspirant. They are powerful ingredients that close pores and stop sweat and odor. Antiperspirants may leave the outside of the body smelling fresh and clean but unfortunately toxins will remain inside your body. This explains that antiperspirants have been connected to problems with the sweat glands and lymph glands in and around the underarms.

I stopped using deodorant that contains aluminum. I am using now Naturally Fresh crystal deodorant. It is 100% all pure and natural and does not contain toxic ingredients. It is made of pure mineral salts that provide 24-hour odor protection, fragrance-free, and non-staining. It allows the pores in our armpit to excrete toxins naturally.

Halloween

Are you ready for Halloween? I don't really care for Halloween, it's no big deal to me. Back in the days in P.I. my family observe the "All Saint's Day and All Soul's Day". These are the days after Halloween. I didn't grow up participating on Halloween that much. I was wondering how Halloween got started. So, I researched on the net (Internet has become my library now!) and found out that Halloween originated back more than 2,000 years. The Europe's Celtic people celebrated their New Year's Day on November 1, called Samhain (SAH-win). The night before Samhain, people thought spirits, Fairies, demons, and other creatures were to walk the Earth as they traveled to the afterlife. They sacrificed animals to the gods by gathering around bonfires. And they wore animal skin costumes and wearing masks to confuse spirits, perhaps to avoid being possessed. Moreover, the Celts costumed as spirits are believed to have gone from house to house engaging in silly acts in exchange for food and drink, which is the "trick-or-treating" now.

Then, Samhain was later adopted by Catholic for pagan holidays. And In the seventh century Pope Boniface IV decreed November 1 All Saints' Day, or All Hallows' Day. The night before Samhain continued to be observed with bonfires, costumes, and parades, under a new name: All Hallows' Eve—later "Halloween."
