Sue Well said Sue, I think we all have gained some insight about our health beyond our wildest dreams, I know I have. My hat is off to Bee everyday for her completely altruistic attitude and guidance. In fact I would like to share some great news with everyone. I was always a very harsh tooth brusher and as a result I brushed alot of my enamel right off my pearly whites. When I joined Bee's group one of the claims she made was that " this diet will help to restore the enamel on your teeth. " Well, I was ever so skeptical, but low and behold the other day I was running my tongue over my freshly peroxided teeth (I love that feeling when they are sparkling clean) and believe it or not the ridges that I used to have from where my tooth had enamel and where I had brushed it off were completely gone! The four front teeth that were affected have all new enamel on them! Can you believe it? If it didn't happen to me I would not believe it! For the record I have been on the diet since Feb 11th. Thanks Bee! Love, Shirley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 > > > I have met people in this group who have given me > insight to so many valuable ways to heal my body, mind > and spirit. what a beautiful post, Sue. I think something that mainstream, western medicine is only now starting to scratch the surface of is how vitally important the health of the body, mind and spirit are--all together--if you don't have a healthy mind and spirit, all the medicine (natural or phamaceutical) in the world is not going to make you healthy...we are more than our bodies...so much more. Ya' know, anyone can come here and find plenty of advice about what supplements to take and what foods to eat...but if your thoughts aren't healthy, if your self-talk is negative, if you view of yourself and/or life is negative...this program is not going to be as affective as it might otherwise be. Debby's recent post about how she has changed her thinking and is now finding success where she wasn't finding it before is just another example of what I'm talking about. There is so much depth in each of us that we aren't even aware of. Life is soooo fantastic (even the icky parts) if we would only start seeing it that way!!! ) love, jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I agree wholeheartedly. It's very difficult to teach self-love. What I try to do when I see someone struggling is remind them of how much more they can offer the world and the ones they love if they take care of themselves first. I am a better wife, mother, employee, student etc. when I take care of my health. If I am lost in the food and feeling bad about myself, I am cranky, dejected, feel bad about myself, etc. Luv, Debby San , CA jahlstrom78 <jahlstrom@...> wrote: Ya' know, anyone can come here and find plenty of advice about what supplements to take and what foods to eat...but if your thoughts aren't healthy, if your self-talk is negative, if you view of yourself and/or life is negative...this program is not going to be as affective as it might otherwise be.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Thanks very much Jackie. What I try to remember the most is compassion and lack of judgement. I've been there, I know how hard it is, and continues to be. I don't judge anyone for making those choices.. I just try to help them have a different perspective on it. Although I have one very close friend who is struggling right now, and I haven't been able to help her. She knows as much as I do if not more.. but she is a very generous person and puts everyone ahead of her. I'm more self-centered and don't have that issue. The one thing I think is missing for her is the impact of her choices. I think she puts a lot of things as higher priority because in the moment they seem more important. But I think she'd be able to get more done for others and be more productive, more loving, etc. if she let her life be a bit imbalanced for a while in her own favor. I actually think doing more for herself would end up being less selfish in the long run just based on increased productivity, moods, energy levels, etc. Also she gets overwhelmed with her responspibilities a lot. I don't have the same situation so it's hard to advise her. With her I am a loss for words especially because she is so very brilliant, I sometimes feel I have nothing I could teach her. Right now she's going through a lot of life changes that take up a lot of energy, and I hope once things calm down a bit she'll be able to focus on her own needs a bit more.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 > With her I am a loss for words especially because she is so very >brilliant, I sometimes feel I have nothing I could teach her. Hi Debby, I have a similar someone in my life and I can tell you that even the brilliant ones get off track sometimes and they can't access what they know to be true. When my friend gets stuck, I just think about what he would tell me if I were in the same situation and then remind him of that. So I'm really just reminding him of what he already knows. Our mentors do need us to reflect back to them. You told me in your post what you observe about her, so just tell her those same things...she'll take it or leave it and I bet she'll appreciate that you cared enough to share it. jackie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have told her everything and it hasn't changed anything. She's going through some things right now that are very time consuming, and it leaves no time left for her to take care of herself. For me I'd go through those things and I would just let them slide and let everything slide until I cooked my food, but that's just me. She knows everything I have told her.. all the reasons why, all the reasons it makes sense, why it is logical. I think part of the problem is she just has been overwhelmed by the chaos and doesn't know how to dig herself out. My constant order and routine has kept me from ever having to get to that point.. I never let things get that bad because I know how overwhelming it can be to procrastinate that stuff. Things like housekeeping, etc. She says sometimes she feels down about herself.. it's very tied into her self esteem. I haven't been able to convince her yet of seeing herself the way I see her or how the other people who love her see her. I have told her all the wonderful things I think of her as well, but her own story of herself has a louder voice than mine. Also I think that there are some things I would want to add to that but they are the kinds of things you can't say without it being taken as an insult, you know? Like I know she watches some TV. I don't know exactly how much, but I'd guess maybe 2 hours per day? Anyways with my schedule I'm not even able to watch TV every day. I watch about 4 hours of TV a week, and usually with my hubby. I'm very cautious about what shows I start watching because of the time constraints. But TV is a BIG time sucker. How do you tell someone that without coming across as judgemental or making them defensive? We all have to take some time to unwind. But I won't even sit down and watch TV until my dishes are in the washer and the house picked up (and I make hubby help so we can get to our show faster!). She also does everything herself as a stay at home mom and her husband doesn't help much when he gets home because she won't ask. She's nice to everyone else but not to herself.
