Save This For When Someone Close To You Needs It
You eat well and exercise, so if the dark forces in life drag you down from time to time you have the reserves to drag yourself back up again. Not everyone is endowed with the spiritual, mental and physical reserves you have. This is for them. Save it so it is handy when you need to pass it on.
If you decide to test drive these recommendations yourself I am not to be held responsible for any increased perception of well being or happiness on your part. You did it. You take the credit.
Got a motto for you to help you through this patch:
“Look and do rather than think and stew.”
Stop watching or listening to the news or reading newspapers. Their owners make more money the more chaos they can foment. A being is as well off as they are dangerous to the environment and as bad off as the environment is dangerous to them. Look for things that are dangerous to you and work out how you can take the danger out of them.
Takes walks. Long walks. Morning and night. Look at things. Lots of things. Throw sticks for a dog. Skip stones across the water. If you are not physically capable of throwing, where it is legal, spit. Looking outwards and throwing things extroverts the attention and raise your cause level.
Sing. 10 minutes a day. the kind of songs that lift you up and make you feel better.
Get enough rest. Too little sleep can make the world seem a very dark place. If you are not getting enough sleep, make it a priority to correct this. Lack of sleep will kill you faster than most anything. Except breathing. That’s pretty fast.
Improve your nutrition. Especially B group vitamins and fish oil/omega 3 fatty acids.
Breathe. Deeply and slowly. It has a relaxing effect on the body and mind.
Make a conscious and deliberate effort to relax and feel relaxed. Avoid people and things that make you feel tense and worried, powerless and hopeless. Seek out people and activities that validate and empower you.
Get yourself checked out for any vitamin or mineral deficiencies or toxic overload.
Do stuff. Physical universe stuff. Complete all the little jobs on your to do or pending list. Every job you finish gives you back some attention units. The more attention units you have in present time, the better you will feel.
Wring or write those with whom you’ve been meaning to catch up.
Help people. Whatever you can do. Even if it’s just helping in a soup kitchen, Showing someone the way when they are lost. Go out of your way to look for ways to contribute and help people. Helping others gives meaning to your life and makes you feel better about yourself.
Do what is on your purpose line. Whether it’s painting, writing, sewing, knitting, singing, cooking, carving – do what is on your purpose line.
Make amends for your misdeeds. Dredge up people to whom you have said an unkind word or done an unkind deed or done something that in hindsight you wish you hadn’t. Each handled misdeed will take some burden off you.
Spend 10 minutes a day thinking about all the good things that have happened in your life. Recall the moment and reexperience it. It doesn’t matter that the first time you do it that it takes 10 minutes to think of one thing, persist. Do it each day. If you cannot think of anything good, recall a day when nothing dramatically bad happened.
Make yourself a pledge to do this for a month and see how you feel then.

Kinesthetic Learners

ADHD is a crock!
Kids (and adults) learn in different ways at different speeds.
And have interests in different areas of knowledge.
Shoeboxing, pigeon holing and labelling will not alter that.
Properly defining every word encountered, providing sufficient mass to balance the significance (theory), teaching on the correct gradient with all steps firmly in place, subjects of interest and relevance to that person’s purpose and desires, these are the things on which an outstanding level of understanding is built!
Nutrition is also key.
The Japanese found people who eat wheat have a 5% lower IQ than those who don’t.
Kids who get fish oil supplements do 5% better at exams.
But what would I know?
I have no recognised formal qualifications in education that put letters after my name.
I only speak from experience.
I am only the co-parent of three children, each outstanding in their area.
One as a mother, one as an engineer and athlete and one as a manager

Geoengineering/Weather Modification/Total Control
In this paper we show that appropriate application of weather-modification can provide battlespace dominance to a degree never before imagined. In the future, such operations will enhance air and space superiority and provide new options for battlespace shaping and battlespace awareness. 2 there, waiting for us to pull it all together;” in 2025 we can “Own the Weather.”

Carrot Rainbow!
Did you know carrots were originally purple, and occasionally, yellow and white? In the late 16th century, Dutch farmers used mutant strains of the heirloom carrot, by crossing yellow and white ones, which gradually developed the common sweet orange carrot we have today.
The purple pigment in heirloom carrots is anthocyanin. Anthocyanins are a type of flavonoid, which give many fruits and vegetables their deep rich colours. They have anti-oxidant effects, and may also have anti-viral, anti-inflammatory, and even cancer-preventing effects.
Some think the reason the orange carrot became so popular in the Netherlands was in tribute to the emblem of the House of Orange and the struggle for Dutch independence. While this is possible, it also might have just been because orange carrots are sweeter and often more plump.
Not Able to Buy Iodine in UK
I responded to a friend request on one of my social media sites. She replied:
“Hullo Tom,
Thank you for your message. I will look into your interesting website and blog tomorrow, I am off to bed now, but I thought to tell you about something which just amazes me, you cannot buy iodine in the UK any more!?! All of a sudden iodine can only be bought by someone who is licensed to buy it!”
Wow! The insanity continues to accelerate!
Tea and citrus products could lower ovarian cancer risk, new UEA research finds
If you want to really reduce your risk, lok into the details of the article and note what are the active ingredients in the beneificial foods.They are flavonoids (anthocyanins, flavonols and flavanones). Anthocyanin pigments and associated flavonoids have demonstrated ability to protect against a myriad of human diseases, are predominant in teas, honey, wines, fruits, vegetables, nuts, olive oil, cocoa, and cereals.
I just searched in Google for “foods highest in flavanoids” and Mr. Google returned the following:
Good sources of flavonoids include all citrus fruits, berries, ginkgo biloba, onions (particularly red onion, parsley, pulses, tea (especially white tea and green tea), red wine, seabuckthorn, and dark chocolate (with a cocoa content of seventy percent or greater).
In my top bars and powders I do not have pulses or red wine. The rest of the list are in my ingredients list.
