Your Greatest Injury Is Fear Itself


	2011 January

Dear Greetings!

Recently, while in conversation with a friend and fellow yoga practitioner the topic of fear of change came up and it made me think of an interesting experiment Dr. Masau Emoto conducted on water and consciousness.

Dr. Emoto is best known for his claim that if human speech or thoughts are directed at water droplets before they are frozen, images of the resulting water crystals will be "beautiful" or "ugly" depending upon whether the words or thoughts were positive or negative. It is fascinating to see how human words and thoughts can drastically alter the state of water molecules. Leading us to wonder: how do such thoughts, images and words affect the human mind and body.

Every day we surround ourselves around decisions that invoke a wide range of emotions. What we don't realize is that, cumulatively fear, anger, doubt, guilt and other negative emotions exhaust us and change our overall state of health. It is exhausting and quite taxing on oneself to "live" in these emotions.

Wellness Tip this Week: Identify one repetitive negative emotion you exhibit with one person. Start focusing on what "triggers" this emotion and when. Then ask yourself: "What is truly causing your negative feelings to come up? "Am I living in this emotion or letting it pass right through me?" "Is it worth allowing this emotion to consume my energy and taint the rest of my interactions?"

If you or someone you know is interested in hosting these unique workshops in other cities, please contact: Liza@ambrosialifestyle.com Unraveling the Mysteries of the Hips, Neck & Shoulders Therapeutic, All Levels Your hips connect your legs to your core, and your legs stand on the ground, keeping you "grounded." When the hips are locked or clogged, it inhibits your ability to connect with the depths of your first and second charkas, cuts you off from the deep wisdom and creative energy that lies there, and also disconnects you from the earth. Forrest Yoga is an inspiring method that asks you to go deeper, feeling for what mysteries, treasures, and truths are yet to be uncovered in your hips... READ MORE

			THE CLEAN 15: FOODS YOU DON'T HAVE TO BUY ORGANIC
			Buying organic makes sense for the health of the earth, farm workers and your family... But if you're pinching pennies ( and who isn't these days?), choose from the list to avoid pesticide residue. *Note: Organic foods are not the the same as non-genetically modified. Organic means foods free of pesticide, herbicide and growth hormone (for meats). Typically pesticides and herbicides accumulate in the skin and seeds which leads me to question some of the foods on the clean 15 list, but it is still a worthwhile read. READ MORE...

"The mind is like a brilliant gem, a diamond... Over a life time,
that shiny diamond gets dirty, dusty, coated over by conditioned thoughts
and the experiences we have. We loose touch with our inner
brilliance-the light of the inner Self-and can't even remember
it's there. Yoga is the process of cleaning the mind and
whatever is blocking the inner light-the part of you
that doesn't need to be fixed controlled or perfected. "

-Kelly McGonigal
