Negative thinking can upset your chances of overcoming fear and financial woes. So much of success depends on your belief in a loving Universe.

What are you expecting from the Government bailout program? Are you expecting money deposited in your bank by some mythical program? There is only one person who can make your bank account grow fast and it is you.? You are so powerful, but when you start to believe the media about how tough times are you lose hope.?

Do you sometimes feel that things will just never work out for you? Do you worry that you are reaching an age where no more good things will happen? And whose fault do you think that is? It is the fault of your own attitude. Where did that attitude come from?? Is there truth in it? Or are you just saying and feeling and believing something that you heard in childhood? Have you ever thought about just where your ideas…
I’ve started a new reoccurring series on my blog focusing on healthy lifestyle tips.? Check back for alternative ways to eat healthier, stay fit and live a good, full life. First up- coconut oil. My eating has become healthier in the second half of my life as more is learned about what makes our bodies work. Some of these foods were considered bad for us or fattening in the past. For instance, many people used to avoid eggs, but free…
Happiness starts out as an image. Just like everything else it is controlled by the Law of Attraction. It is up to each of us to make our own happiness. It is a lot like love, it cannot be forced, but it can sneak up on you. First you can simply move your lips into the shape of a smile. You will find that just doing that makes you feel better. If you want to laugh, I suggest watching funny…
I wish that Bill Gates had said these 11 rules children should know about life, because it sort of “fits” what many of us feel about him. ?However it was actually originally written in a longer article by Charles J. Sykes author of Dumbing Down Our Kids, why American children feel good about themselves but can’t read, write or add. It is here for your edification and enjoyment. It seems to me that it should be passed around until someone…
The best doctor you will ever have has no degree. She is your own Mother. Your mother can calm you with a phone call.? More than that she may be able to make pain go away with a kiss, a snuggle.? She may also prescribe medication, giving something to you that she has already in her medicine ?stash?.? Or she may give you herbal tea, apply essential oils, or cream or potions she concocted. No one calls her a fake,…
The nice thing about becoming an older woman is that years of experience have led to a much greater understanding of our bodies and our sexuality. And as we sail into our late 60s, through the 70s and on into 80s, we become much more accepting of our partners than younger women. Probably because we are just grateful to still have a partner at this stage in the game. (Which is important because, believe me, I know of 90-year-olds who…
According to Dr. Joel Fuhrman a Nutritarian is a person who eats for health. Be one. It is the perfect time of year for this. Fresh fruit and veggies are abundant and often cheap. Buy what you need for each day. Keep your food fresh. Try for an artistic array of colors in every meal. Stay healthy this way instead of taking a pill or some other form of medication. We have control over most of our lives and our…
Don’t have a hysterectomy. Keep your sex drive. Keep your health and mind safe.?Do not let any doctor tell you that you do not need your uterus or ovaries. I have had doctor after doctor tell me that no woman over 60 needs her ovaries. This is simply not true. But until I found this site I could not prove it. ?Doctors would say to me, “Show me the data.” And I could not do so. Now, here it is….
As a divorcee later in life myself, I was curious about? Eat Pray Love. I?ve read the book and I saw the movie over the weekend. Although the story was charming, I had a hard time relating. It did not resonate with me in the way it did with so many women.? I have been on a similar journey and it has taken years. I was never as unhappy about divorcing as Liz(Julia Roberts) was and I had had many…
At age 66, Jack Nicholson lit up the screen in ?Something?s Gotta Give? a romantic comedy about a wise-cracking, record producer who never dated women over 35. His ?ladies man? appeal was all too familiar for audiences used to seeing the age gap between older men and their younger, perkier counterparts. But as Courtney Cox proves in ABC?s hit TV show ?Cougar Town?? the rules have changed. Many older women have taken charge, and they aren?t afraid to go after…
I just read a post at http://tinyurl.com/2c2w2z6 by Jennifer Margulis about standing up to a new dentist and refusing to have her child’s teeth x-rayed. I support her decision 100%. It is terrible that the people we trust: doctors dentists and even nurses sometimes, do not know about the harm they sometimes do in following protocols. Years ago we got plenty of radiation from different places. Not only am I old enough to remember when EVERY single shoe store had…
Today I was browsing sites that deal with women their problems and desires as they age. One of my favorites is Libido fo Life. There I found a post by Joan Price who wrote Better Than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk about Sex after Sixty and the upcoming Naked at Our Age. She had answered a question about using a vibrator rather than having an orgasm without electrical enhancement. That struck a chord with me, because when writing my book…
I recently read a wonderful aritlce describing how everything is sacred. There is no profane in nature. This struck such a chord in me that I wanted to share it immediately. As I write this rain is pooring. I hear the background noise and it is welcome. We have had such a drought lately. Nature always seems to tend to her own though. It seems people complain constantly about the weather. I have heard this over for more than half…
