July Message:

Most of us deal with some form of pain perception in our lives

whether it is in how we look or how little money we have.

Emotional pain is relative to the person perceiving his/her problem.

 

In this message for July is a story about Indigo's dealing with

weight and perception of who is allowed to feel pain about

weight and money.

 

The article is titled:

 

Weight and Perception: Bulk Be Gone!

Today's Gentle Reminder
=====================================================

Give yourself time!

 

I have learned so much from readers of The Wave Riders,

Bi-polar phenomenon, The Gift and Manual, since writing

the book and I am grateful for all of your input and communications. 

 

I hope, soon, to have the second book out that act as a follow up,

letting you know about how other Wave Riders have worked through

the process, so please if you have a story to share send it in!

 

I also hope to be able to bring more workshops with workbooks

that will help readers to reinforce their new beliefs as well as

audio tapes for those who hate to read.

 

Until this is available I want to share a little about what I have

learned in the meantime.

 

There is a repeating process appearing ...

(steps 1-3 were discussed in the last newsletter as well)

 

1.  Upon reading the book you will gain hope.

2. This hope sends you on a high wave ride.

3. You will continue to go up and down while you determine what

     works for you.

4. You begin to see. You begin to notice what effects your mood.

5. After about 6 months you start to know that you are really changed.

And that depression is no longer bossing you around.

 

At this point  you may start to believe that something new has

changed you. 

 

You might be tempted to think that what is in front of you now

after months of work, made the change in you, whether it is 

a new drug, a new health cream, a new vitamin or a new religion.

 

....you might be attempted to credit  whatever happens to be in

front of you at the time ...but look back and you will see it is not

the latest fad that made you happy...it is the work that you have

done for yourself.  Give yourself credit - you deserve it!

 

You have been open minded enough to see your life in a new light.

You have been willing to watch for your personal patterns.

You have been ready to stop the negative thought.

You have fought the temptations that both the ecstasy and the

depression offer.

 

It is you my friend and the work that you have done that  deserves

the credit for your new life.  Look inside, not outside of yourself to

honor the committment to change that you have made.

 

Then be ready for....

 

7. The end result where permanent lifestyle changes have been

implemented creating a life of joy and peace, where depression

is no longer an option.   Give yourself time to reach this point.   We

are not asking for years as it appears to take about 6 months for

the new changes to really set in.  During the first 6 months you

will have glimpses of hope as you work your way through the

struggle. 

 

As soon as you have read the book, your mind will have created

new thoughts, and these new thoughts start changing your view

on life and therefore they change your destination.

 

On a further note:  

It is also true that if a person will not fully read the book and take the

time to observe their patterns, as well as be open to the suggestion

of others observing the start of their high and low rides, that they will be

destined to repeat the same patterns until they come to a point that

their desire to change makes them willing to work toward the goal.

 

There is not much that anyone can do to help until a person is

really ready to help themselves. We can learn to understand and view

them as gifted in a difficult situation while they work through the process.

But we cannot force anyone to see their own patterns.  We can only

put the book in their hands and hope that someday they will read the

pages and we can be there for them when they do.

 

Remember on this journey to a better life that you are not alone and

give yourself time to process and practice and give yourself the credit

you deserve!

Quote of the month
=====================================================

..."I will love the sun for it warms my bones; yet I will love the rain for it

cleanses my spirit.  I will love the darkness for it shows me the stars. 

I will welcome happiness for it enlarges my heart; yet I will endure

sadness for it opens my soul.   I will acknowledge rewards for they

are my due; yet I will welcome obstacles for they are my challenge"...

Research   
=====================================================

There are a lot of warnings out on the Internet about the negative

effects of the anti-depressant Paxil and teens and children.

 

Here is a description on the medication...

...In just a few years, Paxil® (paroxetine HCl) has become one of the

leading treatments for depression and anxiety disorders in the country.

Paxil is a member of a class of prescription drugs called selective

serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) that has proven in clinical trials

to be both safe and effective with fewer side effects than other types

of antidepressant medications (i.e., TCAs and MAOIs)...

However!!!!!  Read these!!! Caution: Shocking stuff!

We have not verified the accuracy of this information and have provided

these links so that you may ask your doctor a few important questions

before giving Paxil to your children.
