Another wild friday night as I sit here working on the weight loss group Be Thin Within.  We get some energetic ”stress management” each day, but for some reason today the group’s chakras would not balance, which indicated a high stress level, so am giving it another try. 

When I first got into biofeedback I didn’t want to hear about chakras- it was too new-agey for me. Then I went to a lecture by Dr. Bruce Lipton  and he explained in a way that opened my eyes.

Dr. Lipton said that he learned, from his cellular research, that we are actually operated from outside our body, not from within. Our cells take instruction from the energy fields around us.

We can be compared to the spaceship voyager. Those of us old enough can recall the voyager walking around on the moon. If we had been from another reality we might have thought it was walking on its own.

But of course we knew that NASA was handling all the controls, and guiding the voyager.

Our body is the same. We are operated by our energy field (NASA) as it sends information to us (the voyager) via the cellular membranes.

Chakras control the flow of  information being sent from our field to our cells

Chakras can get out of sync though. Stress can make them spin the wrong way. Then physical and emotional problems can result, because our cells aren’t getting the right information. Diabetes, for example, according to Caroline Myss, who has the ability to see the human energy system,  is considered a 3rd chakra issue.

In other words, there could be healing by working on the chakras rather than the actual physical issue.

So, if you’re interested, click here to learn more about this subject. You may be one , like me, who’s always thought this was a bunch of hooey. But if you’re serious about achieving optimal physical and emotional health, it may be time to read up.

Plus it’s Friday night. Live a little  :)

If you could pop a pill that safely kept your appetite down with no side effects,and erased calories after you consumed them, would you do it? (drug companies have been trying to create such a drug for years.) Well, you can, but it isn’t a pill.  It’s fiber!

Fiber will help you lose weight because it does all these things. It also can help you maintain your ideal weight for life. It helps balance cholesterol and reduces the risk of developing diabetes. It even reduces risk of cancer.

Am posting about fiber because all this talk about popcorn made me realize that many thought it was a good source of fiber, but it isn’t.  Check out the site www.fiber35diet.com. It’s a great education on weight loss. You can type in your goal weight and get daily instructions on how to reach it, and it’s free! There’s a book, too “Fiber 35 Diet” by Brenda Watson

If you don’t  have time for all this, but still want to lose weight, check out FiProFlax. I found it at the health food store, and it’s fiber, protein, omega 3 fatty acids and lignans.  You just add it to your food and get your fatty acids and fiber at the same time!

Okay, the headline above highlights information received from the  CENTER FOR SCIENCE IN THE PUBLIC INTEREST.

Maybe while you’re tearing up your intestines you’re also caulking them with fat.

Regardless, I didn’t mention that when a special occassion warrants eating something BAD  I take special fat fighters- they’re made from whole foods (kidney beans and some kind of cactus) and they absorb fat and carbs-

Have been taking these things for years, and they do work. Still, the movie popcorn was a bad habit and I can live without it.  But please don’t send any info on milk duds-

Finally got to see Avatar yesterday. For those of you who haven’t , it’s great! Maybe a little too violent for me, but whatever. Anyway, as I went to get my popcorn- which I NEVER watch a movie without- my friend said “Don’t you know popcorn tears up the lining of your intestines?”.

This lady isn’t just your ordinary pain in the neck.  She’s a nutritionist, which means she can be a BIG pain in the neck.   She says one of the worst things we can do to our digestive system is eat popcorn. Research it for yourself, but I didn’t have any.
