Here’s a behind look at Tank’s photo shoot.

We claim all these things in the name of the Divine take a moment a give yourself a huge stretch, and wake up. The first thing you want to do is say thank you for this day. Be thankful for the people in your life and that you woke up. We have so much to be thankful for, we don’t even realize it because of the daily grindstone. Anyway, when you get ready in the bathroom, do the same thing as the night before, look at yourself in the mirror and say “I am going to have a great day, and nothing is going to get me down” I can do anything, with a smile!!

Prayer for a Good Day

Dear Lord,as I arise
And bend my knee to pray
I ask please place your guiding hand
Upon this busy day

All my yesterdays are said and done
Tomorrow may never be
But I give you full reign over this day
To make the best of me

May each little word I speak
Be filtered through your love
May all my thoughts be connected
To the heavenly courts above

And use my feet to take me
To where you want me to be
Guard my eyes that they would only
See what you want me to see

Give me a heart that longs to show
Others the way back home
And with these two hands help me
Fashion glory for your throne

From the great expanse of eternity
One day is all I can borrow
So help me Lord to take care of today
And we’ll talk again tomorrow Amen

May this day be great for you!

Call upon God to calm my fears and to remove anything that may interfere with this healing. I ask my higher self to close my aura and make it so only energies from God may flow to me. No other use may be made of this channel except for the energies of God. I will follow you Lord and lay down those thoughts that are not of you and what you will for my life. Only good I will embrace. Amen.

We are made for joy and happiness. We are mot made to be burdened down with misery. Today, lets take all those things that break, and crack our heart away and go forward.

Book Review: What Are You Doing With Your 86400 Seconds?

The moments in which we do something kind for someone else.It is the one things that empowers us and makes us better people. “Do for other people everything you’d like them to do for you.(Luke 6:31) .

1. Smile and be friendly. Sometimes a simple little thing like this can put a smile and warm feeling in someone else’s heart, and make their day a little better. They might then do the same for others.
2. Donate something you don’t use. Or a whole box of something. Drop them off at a charity — others can put your clutter to good use.
3. Stop to help. The next time you see someone pulled over with a flat tire, or somehow in need of help, stop and ask how you can help. Sometimes all they need is a push, or the use of your cell phone.
4. Comfort someone in grief. Often a hug, a helpful hand, a kind word, a listening ear, will go a long way when someone has lost a loved one or suffered some similar loss or tragedy.
5. Buy food for a homeless person. Cash is often a bad idea if it’s going to be used for drugs, but buying a sandwich and chips or something like that is a good gesture. Be respectful and friendly.
6. Send a nice email. Just a quick note telling someone how much you appreciate them, or how proud you are of them, or just saying thank you for something they did.
7. Show appreciation, publicly. Praising someone on a blog, in front of coworkers, in front of family, or in some other public way, is a great way to make them feel better about themselves.
8. Love. Simply finding ways to express your love to others, whether it be your partner, child, other family member, friend, co-worker, or a complete stranger … just express your love. A hug, a kind word, spending time, showing little kindnesses, being friendly … it all matters more than you know.

I would like to know what you did today.  It’s a great thing to spread good news.

Minute Meditation: Prayer To Help Others

1. LIVE IN A STATE OF APPRECIATION - Make a commitment to sincerely appreciate yourself and your loved ones at least several times daily. Focusing on the positive and sincerely noticing things you appreciate in yourself and others brings a feeling of peacefulness and flow that you can feel in your whole body.

2. CHOOSE INTEGRITY IN YOUR AGREEMENTS - Only make agreements you REALLY WANT to make. Give up the “shoulds” and “need to’s”.You gain Peace of Mind by being true to yourself and honest with others.

3. AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, CHOOSE TO DO WHAT IS BEST IN A SITUATION-  Think things through before you make that final choice. You may find out you have more options than possible

4. BREATHE - We often are continually reacting to ongoing stimuli and distractions. We unconsciously stop our breath when we experience feelings of anger, fear or sadness that accompany our busy lives. Shift from being reactive to making a cnscious choice in how you respond. My friends constantly remind me to breathe when I go into reactive mode.

5.  BE RADICAL AND SHIFT FROM “BLAMING” TO “CLAIMING - Make a commitment to eliminate blame and criticism in your life and you will experience more joy, peace and loving connections. When you notice yourself starting to blame, instead turn it around and KINDLY ask yourself “I wonder how I contributed to this situation?”

6. ADOPT THE MANTRA “IT’S PERFECT EXACTLY HOW IT IS” - Stress is often about always wishing “IT” (your body, your job, your relationship, your life, you fill in the blank) was different than “IT” is. Because you can’t change something if you don’t first acknowledge it exactly how it is and accept it as reality. There is something very comforting about being nonjudgmental in accepting reality.

7. AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, LIVE IN COMPLETION - When our minds are bogged down with mental or physical clutter. Taking steps towards completion can restore your sense of power over those things you can control and help clear out inner space.

8. TELL THE TRUTH – This is like a magic elixir! In your important relationships, whenever you hold back from sharing something important, keep significant secrets or for some reason choose not to face what you know to be true (don’t tell the truth to yourself), you create a feeling of stress or dis-ease within you.

9. ENHANCE YOUR EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE - Learning how to identify what you are feeling when you are feeling it and building your ability to honor and express your feelings appropriately will definitely take

10. MOVE YOUR BODY - Sometimes, when you mind is stuck in overwhelm, moving your body can help create. Get up from your desk and walk around. Take your keys and go for a walk. It’s amazing what happens when you get moving.
