Handbook for Life… 2010

Handbook for Life… 2010

HEALTH:
1. Drink plenty of water.
2. Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like beggar.
3. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is
manufactured in plants.
4. Live with the 3 E’s — Energy, Enthusiasm and Empathy.
5. Make time to meditate.
6. (Breathe)

7. Read more books than you did in 2009.
8. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.
9. Sleep for 7 hours.
10. Take a 10-30 minute walk daily. And while you walk, smile.

PERSONALITY:

11. Comparing our lives to others is fruitless. We have no idea what their journey is about.

12. Replace negative thoughts with positive ones especially about things out of our control. Invest energy in the positive present moment.
13. Try not to over do. Understand limits.
14. Why take ourselves so seriously. No one else does.
15. Gossip drains precious energy.
16. Dream more while we are awake.
17. Envy is a waste of time. We already have all we need.
18. Forget issues of the past. Let go of our partners mistakes of the past. Focus on our present/future happiness.
19. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

20. Make peace with our past so it won’t spoil the present.
21. No one is in charge of our happiness except us.
22. Realize that life is a school and we are here to learn. Problems are simply part of the curriculum that appear and fade away like algebra class but the lessons we learn will last a lifetime.
23. Smile and laugh more.
24. We don’t have to win arguments. It’s ok to agree to disagree.

SOCIETY:
25. Call your family often.
26. Each day give something good to others.
27. Forgive everyone for everything.
28. Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6.
29. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
30. What other people think of you is insignificant compared to what you think of yourself.
31. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends & family will. Stay in touch.

LIFE:
32. Do the right thing!
33. Get rid of anything that isn’t useful, beautiful or joyful.
34. (Higher powers) heal everything.
35. However good or bad a situation is, it will change.
36. No matter how we feel, get up, dress up, and show up.
37. The best is yet to come.
38. When we awake alive in the morning, be thankful.
39. Our Inner most is always happy. Release your “Inner Happy” on the world every day!

New Beginings

This is a painting i did after the charkra exercise

                                                         i love the colors!

                                                          "A bowl of fruits"

"Fruits"

Primitive

Looking at other blogs, I feel  my work is primitive, no photo shop, bad camera (or is it bad photographer), I am not sure what half of the things on the blog setting means.
A part of me feels its important,  you need to stay on top of things,  be the best…
and there's the other part that says its ..ok , all the info you  need ,will come to you... trust. i just feel sometimes it takes me hours because i don't have the tools or the knowledge
So that's what i am going to send out now, if there's an easier way or better way it will come to me.

Chakra balancing

    I didn't like where my head was going this morning , so I decided I would balance my chakras with a painting  exercise ,using all the  7 colors.  Ah.. i feel better already!

*not sure which side i like better, but i guess it  really does not matter

Older Journals

When i make my journals i work intuitivley i never know the outcome of the piece ,i start out with an intent it  will bring a bit of beauty and inspires your own  creativity.

              

"existence needs you"

You are not accidental. without you something is missing
(this journal reminds me of outsider art)

"Beauty"
she is reminding us of the beauty all around 

The mysterious woman

 This was part of the children's series. After I gesso the canvas ,I started to paint and then i saw her face and she appeared! Love her

                                                            Flowers abstract painting

.

Mixed Media Painting

                                        This is one of my first mixed media painting

                                          

                                          

Snow

                                      The first snow fall is always exciting

ART

PLAY

                                                   "Play" is a bit like outsider art .
                                                     She represents giving yourself 
                                                     Permission to play, draw, and explore.

LUCKY YOU

                                                     "Lucky You" is about  allowing yourself 
                                                      to be who you are and being comfortable 
                                                       without caring about what others think

GET HAPPY
