Religion Vs. Spiritually

This has been a question that has been asked over centuries. Which is better?…

I’ve been through at least 5 different religions in the last 10 years. I was searching for “god”, just like anyone else, any, and everywhere.

What I found interesting was each religion I sought felt the same. I was always seeking to “find” the ONE TRUE GOD. I went to countless bible studies, meditated with Buddhists, went to Harlem, NY and learned from 5 percenters on being God, went back to the Christian Church for more bible studies because I thought I “missed something”, became an Atheist from being religiously exhausted, and finally, I’m just SPIRITUAL god damnit!

The most important lesson I learned was no matter what religion I sought, it was all the same. It all leads to one true being, us.

Since I had taken in so much information over the years, I was able to start connecting the dots, it became clear to me that ALL religions follow the same template.

Now… Where does that put someone who cannot decide between spirituality and religion?

Here is how you decide:

Decide whether you like the thought of spiritually being conrtolled, if that makes you feel safe and secure, or whether you’d like the thought of having no boundries when it comes to your own spirituality.

What I really mean is, religion is controlled due to the fact that there are rules set it place before you. Whereas spiritually acknowledges god in all forms, not limiting any experiences you may have, or would like to reach.

So this choice is available for every one. Always be true to yourself whether you decide to be religious or spiritual.

When The Government Shuts Down…

How To Start Over : When The Government Shuts Down

The thought of losing a job, or actually losing your job is a terrifying thought. When our basic necessities are taken away, we no longer have the ability to fuction normally.

According to Maslows Heirarchy of Basic Needs, we all need phsical survival needs (food, sleep, oxygen, and shelter), physical safety ( from danger, harm, or being attacked), love and belonging (friends, and family), self esteem (confidence), and self-fulfillment met.

Abraham Maslow was a psychologist who was devoted to finding out how people got the best out of themselves.


When we have our basic neccesities, fear of lacking simply doesn’t exist, and fear cannot thrive where it is non existent.

Fear:

An unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous and likely to cause pain.


SO…HOW THE HELL DOES SOMEONE START OVER AFTER THEY’VE VE LOST EVERYTHINNG?

Check Your Emotions:

Emotions-

A natural instinctive state of mind deriving from one’s circumstances, mood, or relationships with others.


When we are able to control our emotions, we are then able to control the outcome of ANY situation. Yes! Any!

One method that really works is to be mindful of how you feel in every situation. Notice what makes you frustrated, angry, happy, excited, etc. Take note of yourself!

Once you have enough notes to draw conclusions about yourself, use this as your template for future emotional events.

This is your HOLY GRAIL…


NEXT…

Come up with a strategic plan for getting yourself out of this mess. Consider your options. What can you do to fix it? What is impossible to fix? What steps can you take within your control?

Exude every option until you can’t think of anymore. I would suggest not spending more than a day on this. If you have to spend more time, do this process for one hour at a time, whenever you can. Remember, you need a plan now, the longer you wait, the more time passes by.

I like to call this part of the journey “Conception.”. It’s a plan, within a plan, within a plan…

Ultimately you are conceiving every step of the way, planting seeds that will eventually blossom.

With all of your options considered, come up with a SECOND STRATEGY. This second plan’s purpose is to map out all ways you can avoid being placed in the event that caused you to lose everything in the first place.

If you were let go from a job, perhaps the next job you could take note on WHAT went wrong. Did you make any mistakes? How can you avoid it next time?

You may have to step down off your stallion for a moment to really analyze your true self. No one is perfect. We all make mistakes.

If you are DONE WITH JOBS this is a perfect time to start a business. You may have to work a part time job in the beginning to be financially stable, but eventually you can leave your 9-5 and pursue your passions.

Don’t think of starting over as a bad thing. There are levels to this shit. Think of yourself as LEVELING UP, and the universe is supporting your elevation.

So go ahead! We challenge you to get through this next level in your life!

How To Live Your Dreams

Happy 2019!

Many start their New Year off with resolutions. I’m very reluctant to create New Year’s resolutions for the mere fact that they don’t work. With that being said, what really helps to start fresh is deciding the life you’d like to have moving forward.

I used to be one of those people who never “had time” to do the things I love. Or in order for me to live my dreams, I had to save money or have the funds to start a business.

I felt it was truly impossible to work a 9 to 5 and peruse my dreams at the same time. That’s because it was true. I didn’t have a plan to juggle both, making the thought extremely far fetched.

I went through countless YouTube videos, read tons of articles, and still, I had no idea where to begin living my dreams. I just knew I was tired of doing the same thing over and over. I needed a plan.

I didn’t grow up with elders who knew how to become wealthy, along with creating a passive income. They only knew how to guide us in survival.

Im thankful I had all of my basic needs met growing up. But, when you are an adult paying bills, going to work, and waking up everyday just to do it all over again, is not satisfying.

So how do you start to live your dreams?…

Start with a plan.

The first thing I did was I wrote down all of the things I was dissatisfied with in all areas of my life that I was unhappy about.

“If you fail to plan, you plan to fail” Benjamin Franklin

Secondly, I jotted down all of my resources and expenses to give myself a reference of where I was financially to see if it was even possible to take small steps to fulfilling my dreams.

Then, I took a few days away from what I wrote, down to figure out what my DREAM life really meant. You will be surprised at what you discover. This part of the process really gave me hope. It made me realize that what I wanted to attain was actually not that hard to achieve.

The more research I did, the easier it became. I found that my dreams ended up being goals. All I needed to get to my dreams was consistency, and to never give up until all goals were reached.

What I found was if I took small steps to reach my goals, eventually I’d get there. Now that the “problem” areas in my life were addressed, everything else became more clear. It gave me a start.

I strategically planned my life for a year. I wrote it down an stuck to it on a weekly basis. If I didn’t reach my goals that week, I added it to the following week.

As a result of this plan I created in January 2018, I have been able to work for myself the last 6 months.

I’m sharing my story because everyone deserves to live their dreams. We all need a little clarity and guidence sometimes.

Although we don’t have “forever”, and some of our biological clocks are ticking, you may feel this may not apply to you, but dreams are for everyone.

It’s probably been some time since you’ve had a planner, agenda, or notebook. I’d highly recommended getting something to write down your goals. Writing your goals is like a written contract binding you to yourself.

I hope this helps you find clarity in whatever you are looking for. Whether your dream is big or small.

Holistic Bloodtype Diet: How To Eat For Your Blood Type

Did you know you could become healthier by eating for your specific bloodtype? Yes! It’s true!

Here are the different bloodtypes and the types of foods that fit your health needs…

Type O- Type O Blood requires a high protien diet. This diet consists of beans, grains, vegetables, fish, lean meat, and poultry.

Type A Blood- A diet for type A Blood typically looks like a vegan or vegetarian diet. Why? The reason is because people with type A Blood have a sensative immune system. They thrive in health with a meat-free diet based on vegetables, fruits, beans, and whole grains. If you can go for organic that’s even better.

Next…

Type B Blood– Gaining optimum health as a B Blood type being remains consistant with eating green vegetables, eggs, certain meats, and low fat dairy. Avoiding wheat, lentils, tomatoes, corn, peanuts, buckwheat, and sesame seeds are beneficial in the long run. A certain meat to avoid is chicken.

Type AB- Type AB blood individuals tend to have low stomach acid. This means it would be wise to decrease caffine, alcohol, and cured or smoked meats. Great foods you can include in your diet are seafood, green vegetables, dairy, and tofu.

Here are a few tips to start your journey to eating for your blood type…

1) First start by finding out what your bloodtype is. This may or may not require you to take a trip to your local doctor for a quick blood test. Take your time, don’t get freaked out because you are still not eating properly. Just eat as healthy as you can for the time being. You will still feel good about yourself.

2) Look for recipes with foods you already eat, and see how you can modify and add those items specific to your bloodtype in your meal plan.

3) Lastly, don’t rush if you just found out you haven’t been eating to gain optimum health for your specific make up. To be honest, most of us don’t. Due to the way we were raised, or living in an environment we could not control, we cannot blame ourselves. The only thing we can do is be accountable here on out.

It took years getting here, be fair and allow the damage to correct itslef with time, and good decisions…

Here is a great book to help you along your Holistic Bloodtype Diet Journey! It will explain more in detail how knowing your Bloodtype can benefit every aspect of your life.

A Holistic Life Today: Start With Love

Enjoy loving the life you’ve been given…

When we don’t love the life we’ve been given, we block ourselves from receiving abundant love from the universe.

It’s easy to wish your life was better, everyone does in one way or another, don’t get stuck there though. Understand this is a marathon, a personal one.

Being Holistic means you trust the Universe. It means no matter where your life is now, you truly have to trust and believe you have a connection to your divine self, whom you are ultimately being led by.

If you feel like you’ve been doubting yourslef, take a moment to realize this is your higher-self speaking, letting you know you are longing for satisfaction.

Great! You are on your way today! The fact that you acknowledged your needs means you metaphysically let the Universe know what you want, and it is coming to you now.

As soon as you have these realizations, try your best to allign yourself with those things you desire. As long as you are aligned, the Universe will do the rest.

Sometime today take a moment to think, or write down all of things you are grateful for. Analyze how you feel emotionally. Are you truly grateful for the things you stated? Does it feel natural? Are you saying them because they are basic needs?…

Tapping into these emotions unlock our truest desires over time. Take your time, be patient with yourself, and let the process happen naturally. You will be amazed at the amount of knowlege given to you on your path to help you succeed, and this is when things start to flow abundantly, like water.

Be Healthy Inside Out: Try Something New

There was a time in my life where I got bored with food. Don’t get me wrong, I love cooking those traditional meals I grew up on. Let’s be honest though, some of our favorite dishes aren’t the healthiest.

So, on my journey to seeking different recipes I discovered something called Keto Dieting…

As I educated myself more about Ketogenic Dieting, I found that it was a way of life. It was more than a “diet.”

The ketogenic diet is a low carb, low protein, and high fat diet which puts the body into a metabolic state known as ketosis.

When you’re body is in a state of ketosis, the liver produces ketones. which become the main energy source for the body.

Ketones, also known as “ketone bodies,” are byproducts of the body breaking down fat for energy that occurs when carbohydrate intake is low.

I know right! Who knew? Maybe you did, but I didn’t at the time.

So the most important and effective information I found was that maintaining a Keto lifestyle will literally allow you to eat anything you want, while teaching your body to store fats properly.

If your metabolism is already high (like a lot of people I know), that’s fine too. This will help create a greater balance by incorporating meals to suit your speed.

I’d highly reccomend this book, it’s helpful. Having a healthy balance in a key factor in your Holistic journey.

Stay Balanced.

Holism Today

How Can You Utilize Holism in 2018?

Yes, we live in a busy world where most of us are always working. We strive hard to reach our goals, and sometimes we look back and wonder where the time has gone. If you have children, lack of time with them can impact you even more, causing feelings of void, wishing you could go back in time to change your schedule.

Well, the good news is, if you don’t feel whole today, there a few things you can do that will help you start your holistic journey. Here they are:

1) For 5 minutes today…

Sit and think about how whole you feel on a scale from 1-10

This will help you determine where you stand as far as being whole. It’s best to write this down. Your brain needs to phisically see this number, and you need to be one with the number you are reading. This creates synchronicity with your mind, body, and soul.

2) Write down what you feel is keeping you from being a whole 10…

If you already feel whole, here is a time to jot down any goals you have not accomplished yet. Really try to dig deep and get to the root of what is keeping you from these goals you desire.

3) Accept where you are and understand you are exactly where you need to be…

A major part of living a holistic life is that no matter where you are on your journey there is always room for improvement.

The fact that you are seeking more is the Universes way of letting you know, although you are already great, you are not living up to your fullest potential. Start living your best wholesome life today. It’s never too late.

    Start Sleeping Better

    When your eyes experience pure darkness, the sleep aid melatonin is naturally produced at a higher rate. This allows you to fall asleep quicker, as well as help heal any sleep distresses which may cause insomnia. Try eye masks for 21 days and see if you sleep better.

    Sleeping well allows us to be focused for the next day. You should never compromise your sleep, it will hinder your creativity, and may cause health issues in the long run. Your body needs time to heal during the night, or whenever your schedule entails. Pure duality will help you to accomplish all you need to in life. Stay balanced.
