Craving Sweetness: The Connection between Health and Spirituality
What does "sweetness" mean to You? If it's primarily chocolate or other comfort food (sweet or not), discover the true meaning of your yearnings and how to attain them by making informed choices about what you are eating and what's eating you.
Food cravings are part of a cycle of stress that is fed by today's typically stressful diets. You will be given a self-evaluation quiz, learn why you eat or perform less well than you would like, and learn heart-centered tools to help you transform "codependence" (focusing on "the other", person, place or thing rather than on your own needs and desires). Note: If you feel somehow disconnected, low on energy, frazzled and consume large amounts of comfort foods (such as bread, pizza and other baked goods, dairy products or salty crunchy foods) or stimulants such as chocolate, coffee or other caffeinated food or beverages - you are ironically fueling the cycle of stress that you are trying to alleviate.

Basic Meditation-Practice Techniques
Excessive mind chatter is a reason to learn meditation, not to avoid it. You don't have to be a Buddhist nor you do have to sit for a long periods of time in an uncomfortable position to practice meditation. There are many simple techniques to train your restless puppy mind to stay seated on the rug, enabling you to bring your mind-body to a restful state which will remove stress and anxiety, heighten awareness and creativity and connect with your Heart center. Daily meditation practice will ultimately bring you rich rewards of balance, harmony, contentment and peace - a place to just "be" whenever you need or desire a respite. Guided meditations are another effective and relaxing way to take your mind off its limiting fears and anxieties.
