A Note from Lucrezia
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm a little late in getting this issue out. I'm changing my content/format and, well, I needed more time. Thanks for your patience.
As I surf the waves of change occurring everywhere in my life, I find myself laughing more. When I check-in with myself, I discover two reasons why I'm smiling. It's one-part nerves. (I get that way sometimes.) And three-parts the experience of living and breathing change all my life. I know change.
I'm remembering healthy habits that where born from past changes which, today, help me surf any sea change and that carries me to a shore of calm. That's when I laugh because I find myself at home.
What healthy habit(s) have you created from transitions of your past that can help carry you through changes you may currently face?
Another habit that compliments our healthy habits is growing in self-love. Not the narcissistic kind. The compassionate kind.
In honor of Valentine's day, I've recorded a meditation to help "love thyself" a bit more. I've included a link to an audio file (.MP3) as my gift to you. You'll find it in this issue's health tip. I hope you enjoy it and do let me know. I'm interested in hearing from you.
A few quick snippets of news:
- Let's connect: Join me on Linked-In & Twitter at http://twitter.com/CiaoLucrezia.
- Beginning in April, this ezine becomes monthly. My goal: provide information of value to help improve wellness. More next month.
- Stay tuned for more details about online gatherings that are arising.
- I welcome feedback. Is there something you'd like to see in this ezine? Do tell.

A Good Vibe Health Tip & Meditation #3
Health is an Inside Job
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
All of life has a dual aspect, left/right, strong/weak, day/night, even during times of change. Though one appears more dominant than the other, they both exist simultaneously and they define each other. They need eachother. When the sun shines, the moon hides. When the moon rises, the sun's rays continue beaming. They're just elsewhere. This dual aspect of life is what the Taoist philosophy describes as Yin/Yang.
In the dark, the light is always nearby. In the light, the dark is always nearby. They define eachother.
Simply Love Thyself Meditation
The inside job this month is to love thyself. Let's follow this natural life cycle of duality by going inward, contracting unto ourselves, and then moving outward with expanded possibility.
