The storyteller sits in the center of the village (boma or manyatta) and says,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "I'm going to tell you a story,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," and the people say, "Right." Next she says, "Not everything in the story is true." They say,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "Right." But then the storyteller says, "Not everything in the story is false, either." Again the people say, "Right." She begins to tell the story but a few minutes into the story she pauses, leans towards her audience and artfully whispers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "Not everything in the story is true," and the people conspiringly whisper back, "Not everything in the story is false, either." Other times she stands up and shouts out loud "Not everything in the story is true". The audience responds to her in kind "Not everything in the story is false, either."
This is a deep contrast to the commonly practiced style of communication many of us are used to and many of us use . And I am not just talking about words, rather the "I'll tell you/you listen to me" mindset that is heavy on "you vs. me"; "my word/belief/ideas/philosophy vs. your word/belief/ideas/philosophy"; or "my way vs. your way" and rather flat on "we", "our" and "us" .
If you're a great talker or good writer, you may be remembered for your speaking or writing skills (and may be for your good looks), but that lasts just for a little while because there was nothing really "special" about you. You didn't positively move minds to think for themselves and beyond themselves -- and you certainly didn't move hearts. Your story never became "our story".
I am not a fluent speaker (I do the umm, umm,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], ah, ah, ah... a lot) or great writer (I get all my verbs and whatever else mixed up) but I am okay with that because that's not what I want to be. I just want to be a good "our story" teller. Just may be some day when I am gone, someone will read my work and think "Oh-My-God! She's So Cool!
Unlike the story teller in the centre of the village, this communication style has no intention of "bringing together" but rather "imposing upon". For most people it's their "default" communication style because they think and believe "others" are stupid, lazy, weak or evil. Becoming "us" with such people is unimaginable. No, forget imaginable -- it's simply impossible. They know better, and it's their "duty and responsibility" to think for those stupid,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], lazy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], weak or evil people (I tell you/you listen to me).
And sure enough you may get a few people to listen (mostly people just like you), but overall you'll hardly be remembered as having added anything to the story of an evolving harmonious humanity (called "we"). And when you are mentioned, it's like you were never really there or were there like bad wind. You passed by, but you never left a positive "I was here" mark.
What I've learned in trying to leave a positive "I was here" mark in this world is that people will think for themselves when you stop doing it for them. And if you can communicate to someone in away that they feel special enough to think for themselves, make their own decisions and choices,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and creatively contribute (their own way) to the story of an evolving harmonious humanity (we), to that person you become "OMG! You're So Cool!
Some "lucky" people are just so cool (and looks got to do with it somewhat, though only to a point). They naturally have that emotional pull that makes them stand out -- and apart. But for the majority of people, it's a struggle trying to differentiate their minds (and hearts) from the rest of the crowd. They may occasionally successfully generate an emotional response but it's usually not enough to make them stand out -- and apart (so cool).
There are fluent speakers and there are great writers, and then there are great communicators. But you already know that. There are people who use all the right words, in all the right order and with all the right passion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but for all their precision,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], passion and good intent, can not create that "this person is special" feeling; or as Generation Y says it, "OMG! S/he's so cool!
She creates an "emotionally brand" that when she is mentioned or thought about - the warm fuzzies that all of us hope we evoke in others come flooding in "this person is special" real time emotion.
Of course not everyone wants to be "so cool" (or so they tell themselves) but if you're like most of us, there is that deep down desire (often sub-conscious) to leave a mark in this world that says "I was here". And there are so many ways (good and bad) to do that.
How does she do it?
One way I am trying to leave my "I was here" mark is what comes close to what is called "emotional branding". To illustrate what this entails,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I'll give the example of a traveling African storyteller.
By pausing every now and then to allow her audience to think for themselves and beyond themselves ("What is true?" and "What is false?"), she makes the audience part of the story,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], co-creators of the art. She artfully creates that sense of "we're equals and we're in this together-- as one" and her audience responds positively. Her story becomes "our story". But more importantly, by seeking out the marriage of sensation/feeling, reason, and intuition she brings the story to life -- to the present, to the NOW. It's no longer some story of two thousand years ago, but an experience -- shared in real time.

Still, all of this uproar was confusing and unclear. What was even more uncertain was how we could make these changes, redefine masculinity, and still compete and thrive in the world of men. It was one thing to ask us to let down our guard in the bedroom; quite another to ask us to do so in the boardroom or the clubhouse.

As men began to question how to bring their inner personal work into the outer world two messages began to resonate: spirituality and service. Men like to be useful. Men like to be needed. We like to fix things. We are practical; we like to see results. Material things, whether earned, fixed, or purchased are a measuring stick. Now a new measure arose. What have you done for the good of the world starting with your own personal world? This is a spiritual question; it asks a man to find his place in the whole of the universe. It implies our connection to all of life. It suggests we have a part to play in the plan of a creator, a higher power, the nameless one, God. Perhaps we are not here to get what we can for ourselves and our loved ones, but to give what we can give to as many as our power can reach.
Traditionally men have mentored other men in sports or occupational roles. They have taught a trade, coached a team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or helped a man advance in a business. Typically, a mentor is older than the man being mentored, too old to be a peer and too young to be a father figure. Generally the relationship is clearly circumscribed, covering only a particular part of the mens lives. There may not be any personal relationship outside the field of mentoring. They probably never talk about their personal lives or their feelings about each other. Yet removed from the competition among peers and the ambivalences of fathers and sons, the relationship can be rewarding for both men. They both may be able to give and receive, not a small thing between two men.
Eventually men began to realize that at the core of who they were was something called masculinity, together with a series of relationships with men. We began to respect and even honor our relationships with male friends, brothers, and, of course, fathers. We discovered that some of the qualities that we considered feminine that were sought for by the women in our lives could also be expressed in the company of men. In short, it was okay to have feelings with men and for men.
Another man said that he’d thought at over 60 years old it was too late for him to change. But when he attended Yom Kippur services the day after the weekend he discovered a new depth of spiritual meaning in the service. A man spoke of not being afraid anymore to confront the men who treat him unfairly at work,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. A young man spoke of not knowing his real father but feeling like he had twenty-seven fathers during the weekend.
Men and Masculinity
How can a man serve others, especially other men? He can mentor them. He can teach,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], guide, encourage, advise, and support another boy or man. Of course, he can mentor a girl or woman, too, but by mentoring a male he may short-circuit competition and share a wisdom he hardly knew he possessed — wisdom about growing up male.
Unfortunately, the evidence indicates that few men born since World War II have either mentored or been mentored. Most of us had to rely on fathers who often were either not around or unavailable, friends who knew no more than we did, or media images of what a‘real man’ was.
Since the women’s movement began in the early 1970s many men have been encouraged and challenged to re-examine what it means to be masculine, what it means to be a man. For most men it was difficult to accept this challenge because they were being asked to exercise faculties that were not a large part of the male model of life. They were being asked by girlfriends, sisters, wives,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mothers, and the media to be introspective and to show feelings — just as they had been thoroughly trained not to do.
Most of the pressure to become a “new man” — more open, sensitive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and caring came from women and focused on our relations with women. We baby-boomer men were told we needed to do change to become better husbands, sons, and fathers. Some of us saw a potential pay-off there. Perhaps instead of feeling like we needed to be strong and successful,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it might turn out that we could be valued instead for being honest and good.
Despite the uncertainties, many men in the last 25 years have taken the risk of introspection, self-awareness, and selfdisclosure. Many women, while encouraging and supporting, have never understood just how risky the venture has been for men. Since all men are assumed to be competitors,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if not potential enemies, it hardly made much sense to reveal one’s weakness and vulnerability to other men. And be assured, most of us figured that what we would discover in our own inner search would be faults, weakness, and a touch of evil.
What all these men have in common is the desire to mentor other men by welcoming them into the ManKind Project community. After the weekend the new men are encouraged to join weekly Integration Groups which help them deepen their self-examination and integrate the training into their lives. The men who teach them how to begin an I-group are also volunteers who wish to mentor other men.
At first, we conceded that maybe, just maybe, a women who loved us might accept the truth. We’d open up, if the alternative was having her leave — but that’s where we’d to draw the line. Gradually, however, men began entering therapy, self-help groups, 12-step programs, and commercial personal growth programs (such as est seminars, Lifespring, and Forum). Men’s personal growth programs and writings slowly grew into a men’s movement that could complement the work of the women’s movement.
These weekend trainings are provided in conjunction with the ManKind Project, that has training centers around the USA, in Canada and in 7 other countries around the world. This is a national not-for-profit corporation that operates with a small paid staff. Most of the work is done by volunteers, men who have gone through the male initiation provided by the training. The paid leaders on the weekend are highly motivated, experienced men with a wide range of occupations who have been trained by the organization as guides. Most of the weekend staff are volunteers.
A New Warrior becomes a new kind of mentor. He mentors and supports others not merely in how to perform, but in how to become — how to make the world a better place by their inner struggles as well as their outer accomplishments. He is a man who can be of service to his family, his friends, his community, his nation, his earth,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and his God. If he chooses to be.

The ManKind Project
Mentoring has thus become an integral part of fulfilling the New Warrior Statement of Purpose: “We are an order of men called to reclaim the sacred masculine for our time through initiation, training, and action in the world.”
Many men have discovered that recognizing a fuller range of emotions not only doesn’t diminish their power and stature but increases and reforms these qualities. Many of us have discovered that by confronting our own inner demons we have uncovered an unanticipated strength and power. Dominance, wealth and status, no longer seem such desirable pursuits — and they don’t control our lives. They begin to appear to be at best,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], possible means, to a more meaningful end. Fortunately the same programs that led men to pose basic questions were able to suggest some general answers.
Mentoring: Spirituality and Service
Let’s return to the twenty-eight men standing before their friends and families. This event was extraordinary on several counts. The obvious one was that these men were publicly expressing thoughts and feelings men rarely even express in private. They also hugged one another with real feelings of affection — again, in public. It was extraordinary that these feelings were elicited during just one weekend together at a New Warrior Training Adventure. What made this event even more extraordinary was the organization behind it, and what will be offered to the men after their Adventure.
It continued, each man speaking from the heart about his experience. Most stumbled for the right words until an unexpected eloquence flowed forth and moved the audience to sound their appreciation. Something extraordinary was occurring in that room, but before trying to make sense of it it’s necessary to look at what led up to that evening. In fact it would help to go back about 25 years.
Twenty-eight men stood before the audience. One by one they came forward to speak about the experiences they’d had over the past week. Before they had shared the past weekend together they had been strangers to one another. Now as their friends and families listened they spoke their “truth.” The first man said he had been sad all week, had even cried several times — and said it was good, it felt good to be sad, because for most of his life he had felt nothing. Next,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a big heavy set middle-aged man said he had been angry all his life and was tired of it, and sorry for how it had affected his wife and children. When the weekend had ended he hugged his wife like he had never hugged a woman before, and as she sat in the audience he told her he loved her.
Men who had explored their emotions found their power and strength coming from something spiritual: love. As a man faces the turmoil of his emotional life he often discovers the core emotion from which all others are an imperfect, distorted expression. At the center and core of his feelings resides love. Not his love, just love,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], universal and profoundly powerful. When a man discovers his ability to love he naturally wants to use it to fix something or somebody. He wants to keep uncovering and sharing his love with others. He may well learn to express his love with hugs and words. But if a man’s way is to express himself in actions; he must do something,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not just be someone. He will want to serve others without diminishing himself.

Legislation approved by the U.S. Congress contains hundreds of pages dealing with the reorganization of the U.S. intelligence system, and improving domestic security. But missing from many headlines are steps U.S. lawmakers hope will increase cooperation with other countries in the war on terrorism, and help combat extremism in the Muslim world.
Among the many sections and subsections of the September 11th Recommendations Implementation Act are steps to improve the way the United States interacts with key countries in the war on terrorism: Pakistan, Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia has faced an upsurge in terrorist attacks blamed on al-Qaida-linked groups and individuals.
In passing intelligence reform legislation, Congress calls on President Bush to come up with a strategy for future relations with the kingdom.
This includes a new framework for cooperation in the war on terrorism with specific reference to financing of terrorists,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and an examination of steps to,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in the words of the legislation, reverse the trend toward extremism in Saudi Arabia and other Muslim countries in the Middle East.
Also mandated: a framework for promoting greater tolerance and respect for cultural diversity in Saudi Arabia and the region.
Congress hopes to have a similar impact in Pakistan, where it says U.S. policy should try to ensure a long-term policy of moderation, including reforms in the education system.
The United States, it says, should support with financial and other aid, efforts to fight extremism and halt the spread of weapons of mass destruction.
Democratic Congressman Adam Schiff says the September 11th Act contains steps he supported against nuclear non-proliferation.
"[There are provisions that call for] the establishment of a national counter-proliferation center that can attack this problem of the proliferation of nuclear material as well as chemical and biological material,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," he said. "It will help oversee operational efforts to interdict this material, and also recommended changes in the international legal structure that will better help us deal with the [Pakistani nuclear scientist] A.Q. Khan's of the world, to deal with Iran, to deal with North Korea,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and attack this very real danger to our country."
One of the longest sections deals with Afghanistan and efforts to build democracy while fighting terrorists and opium cultivation.
Similar to Saudi Arabia, the legislation says President Bush should present in not later than six months, a five-year strategy addressing a range of goals from security and economic development to the rule of law.
He is also directed to continue working to ensure progress is not undermined by warlords and narcotics trafficking, and to urge NATO and other countries to increase military contributions for an extended period of time.
Extensive language on narcotics reflects frustration in Congress that the U.S. military has not been as engaged as many had hoped in eradicating poppy cultivation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Lawmakers required a report from Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld on progress within four months.
The legislation also addresses another of the recommendations of the September 11 Commission, namely improving U.S. public diplomacy to help fight spread of terrorism and promote democracy.
It calls for more focused planning for, and an annual assessment of the impact of such things as foreign broadcasts,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], on specific target audiences.
Also,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more emphasis on foreign language training for U.S. diplomats,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], more money for direct youth and other exchanges with Muslim countries, and aid to American-sponsored elementary and secondary schools in the Muslim world.
The September 11th Act also seeks to make improvements in the areas of human intelligence, in contrast to electronic and other methods,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and non-proliferation.
Retiring Democratic Senator Bob Graham cites weaknesses in one of those areas as a reason the United States found itself at war in places like Iraq and Afghanistan,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
"I think the case can be made that defects in our human intelligence contributed to the circumstances that led to both of those wars and I'm very pleased that this legislation will recognize the importance of human intelligence and advance our capacity to provide the kind of people with the kind of skills prepared to carry out the kind of missions required today," he said.
Finally, among the many steps becoming law under the intelligence reform law will be those intended to send a strong message to governments that may still be supporting terrorists.
Congress calls on President Bush to submit a report within 90 days with a strategy for addressing and,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], where possible,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], eliminating terrorist sanctuaries.

Some Wise Women converse with the plant fairies and the devas. Some hear the song that each plant sings. Some feel the dances of the leaves, breezes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and insects. All are means of learning the ways of herbs. Though the scientific tradition scoffs at such knowledge, the Wise Woman tradition honors the plant as the ultimate authority on its uses.

Herbals concentrate on the specifics of using plants as medicines and are rarely illustrated well enough to serve as a guide to identification. Field guides hardly ever include information on medicinal value. The link between your field guide and your herbal is the botanical binomial, or Latin name, of each plant.
The binomial is (usually) consistent in all references, unlike common names which overlap and vary from region to region. Once you have identified a new plant, you can look it up by finding the binomial in herbals and other references. This can increase your confidence and ability to find and use safe herbal medicines.
HERBAL PHARMACY –
Meeting the Plants
by Susun Weed
Even one day's work in field,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], forest, and kitchen can provide you with many years' worth of medicines. When you make your own, you know for sure what's in it, where it came from, when and how it was harvested,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and how fresh and potent it is.
My years of leading Weed Walks and helping people identify wild plants have shown me that learning to recognize herbs in the field is far easier, and much less fraught with danger, than most people realize. As Euell Gibbons is quoted as saying: "You don't learn all the plants at once; you learn them one at a time."

Green Blessings.
Whether you buy or make your own medicines, remember, herbal remedies may not work or may work incorrectly if they aren't prepared correctly. Read this chapter carefully; it contains easy to follow instructions for every remedy and preparation mentioned in this book [Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year].
Learn more about the weeds around you directly from the plants, from a personal guide,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and from field guides and herbals.

Field guides are indispensable references once your taste for herbal identification is whetted. I find the line drawings in the Petersen guides more helpful than color photographs when I have to distinguish between similar looking plants.
this excerpt from:
Wise Woman Herbal for the Childbearing Year by Susun Weed
Fresh herbs are best for the tinctures and oils recommended in this book. If you can't make your own, buy from sources who wildcraft or grow their own herbs to use fresh in preparations.
Even if you never pick your own herbs, knowing how the live plants look will be a great asset when you go out to buy them.
Dried herbs are best for the infusions recommended in this book. Stock your herbal pharmacy with your own foraged or cultivated dried herbs; expand your resources and experiment with new herbs by buying dried herbs from reputable sources.
Author's Bio:
When we open all our senses, including the psychic ones, to the green world, we learn to hear and understand plant language. Through shape, color, location, scent, texture, taste,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and energy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], plants tell us how they will affect our bodies,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which plant parts we can use, and how we prepare them.
Start by noticing the plants that live with you,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], along your driveway or sidewalk. Don't assume that medicinal plants are hard to find. Fennel, Pepper Grass,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Dandelion, Plantain,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Mugwort (to name a few) are as common in cities and suburbs as in the country.
A personal guide into the plant world will show you plant features which ensure positive identification, such as the hairs on Wild Carrot which safely distinguish it from Poison Hemlock. A personal guide will introduce you to the foods, medicines, dyes,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], fibers, decorations, and delights hidden in common plants, and instruct you in wise harvesting and preparation. Check local garden clubs, botanical gardens, and nature centers for contacts with personal guides.
In your herbal pharmacy you transform fresh and dried plants into herbal medicines. Learning to identify and use the common plants around you is easy and exciting, beneficial and safe. Making your own medicines saves you money if you follow the Wise Woman tradition of using local herbs, free for the taking.

,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Your desktop is like that scrabble tray. It’s hard to see it differently because your brain is so conditioned to the way it already is. Often when you just move one or two things around in your workspace you begin to see it differently and this creates a chain reaction. Take five minutes and think about your workspace. If you are sitting at your desk, look around at everything there and try to “see it differently.” Move some things around. Move the pens to the other side of the desk, move that pile to the opposite side where the pens were and if possible, reposition your computer, even if it’s just a few inches one way or the other. Once you do this, sit back and take another look at it. Do things look different? Do they feel different?
The reasons behind this are quite simple: we become de-sensitized and almost blind to what’s in front of us when we look at it everyday. The other reason is that often our workspaces were originally set up in a temporary way, not knowing if we’d stay in that particular cubicle or with that desk area when we started. Then… life happens and before we know it, we’ve been in the same workspace for three years and realize that: (1) we can’t find our desks and (2) our physical systems are no longer working for us because very little thought was put into the original set-up.
Will your workspace stay “found”? If your new desktop is a result of your open mind and a 1-2-3 plan, you now have a fresh arrangement that will work for you. Like most workspaces - the kitchen, a wood shop,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a crafts table - that we use to create things,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your desk will get messy … and that’s okay. It’s supposed to get messy because for many of us, that is where we “create” and “work”. The great thing is that it only takes a few minutes’ daily maintenance to have it back where you want it: FOUND!
2. Map the Four Main Areas
Here are three fast and simple tips to try out. See if they make a difference in your day.
When I go into a company to work with people on their organizational systems,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I often get the question, “Where do I start”? If you’re trying to organize your space to be more effective, I always suggest re-arranging your desktop as a starting place. Because the reality is that it IS hard to make a difference in your day if you can’t find your desk.
1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Rearrange
It’s Hard to Make a Difference When You Can’t Find Your Desk,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]... Three new ideas you can immediately implement to find your desk again
You know when you’re playing Scrabble and you have your tiles all neatly organized into preliminary words on your tray? Then, you try to maneuver your mind to see how you can use those already orchestrated words with what has been played by your fellow players? You try to make sense of the words you’ve already created and it’s hard to see anything else. This is the analogy I often use when I’m teaching a class on organization and I prompt everyone to go back to their desks and, as a starting place,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just re-arrange their desk tops.
There’s a great book called “It’s Hard to Make a Difference When you Can’t Find Your Keys.” Its author, Marilyn Paul, outlines seven steps to truly becoming organized. After reading it, I couldn’t help coming up with my own title: “It’s Hard to Make a Difference When you Can’t Find Your Desk”!
3,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Build the “L”
There are four areas in a well-defined workspace: In, Out,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Pending,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Working. Take a minute in your head to map out where these areas are for you. It doesn’t mean that you have to have actual In and Out boxes but, rather,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just an area where things are coming at you and things are moving away from you while you work. Half the battle is knowing what’s coming in and what’s going out. This way,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there is a clearly defined area for where things “live.” The Pending area is where you keep all of your items that are in-process and you are currently working on. And, of course the Work area is where you actually work. This is the “prime real estate” area right in front of where you are sitting. The goal is to keep this area clear unless you are working on something. Defining these areas is a good first step.
The anatomy of a well-designed office starts with an “L-shaped” work area. If your space and desk doesn’t allow for that, it’s best to try to create it by using a small table or the top of a 2-drawer filing cabinet on the side of your main desk area. This way, you have computer space, work space and a side area for keeping other files, papers, and projects. The way in which your space is arranged on this very foundational level can make a big difference in terms of being able to open up an area in front of you for where you actually do your work.
Looks great – can it last?

So just what are the ingredients for the fertile soil in a woman's body that supports healthy pregnancy and birth? This is an important question for a woman trying to conceive. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has some solid contribution on the topic.First, a woman's blood must be ample, nutritionally and hormonally healthy, and flowing unimpeded throughout the body and, in particular, the uterus. Second, her Chi needs to be flowing smoothly in all her organs, muscles and channels (including the uterus). Third, her mental and emotional energy system needs to be balanced in such a way that a woman trying to conceive,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is enhancing her overall health versus burdening her overall health.
Whew,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that's a mouthful. And what does it all mean? Well, let's look at each piece individually.
One of our energy systems in Chinese Medicine, The Earth System which includes the organs Spleen/Pancreas and Stomach, is responsible for receiving the food and drink we ingest, breaking it down into usable nourishment for the blood (called transformation in TCM), and then transporting nutrients, via the blood,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to our entire body. Optimal function of our body can only be as good as the quality and quantity of the food we eat. Quality refers to how healthy, vital and nutrient-rich the food we eat is. Quantity refers to the eating of food in proper portions. If we eat too little, we become deficient in nutrients. If we eat too much, our system becomes burdened in having to deal with the excess that cannot be transported or is unusable,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for example excess sugar. If either deprivation of necessary nutrients, or over-burden becomes the norm,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], our system suffers greatly.
If misuse of our energy goes on over time, our soil may become infertile. We absolutely need healthy blood on a regular basis and we need this rich, nourished blood flowing throughout the uterus. When our blood becomes tired, lacks oxygen, or is nutritionally deficient, it can become sluggish, slow down and even stagnate. This means our smooth flow of blood is compromised, thus compromising fertility.

Enough Chi flowing smoothly in all organs, muscles and channels (including the uterus): Chi is a Chinese word for life force, or energy,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or molecular energy. It is what we are made of in that, if we have no Chi, we have no life force. Simple stated,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when we are born we have a full tank of Chi, and when the tank is empty, we die. While alive and during the reproductive years, it makes sense that in order to create a new life inside of you, you must have a reasonable life force yourself. If you don't have enough Chi or life force in your own system, where do you think the Chi will come from to create a new life for 9 mos.? Nature, and infinite wisdom, just knows that if a woman's Chi tank is too low, then reproduction falls below the line of possibility. It's a no-brainer, in that, for a fetus to grow it needs a certain amount of Chi and blood.
Mental and emotional energy systems need to be balanced in such a way that a woman trying to conceive, is enhancing her overall health versus burdening her overall health: Thoughts and emotions are as much Chi as your elbow or liver is. They are just a more subtle form of Chi. Much like the wind, in that, we don't "see" wind, but it exists because we see the effects of wind even though it is invisible. This more subtle form of Chi, like our thoughts and emotions, are just as important as the food we eat. Every time we think a thought or have an emotion, there is literally a chemical reaction in our body. To put it in simple terms, the by-product of these chemical reactions are either toxic and thus, burdensome to our system; or the by-product of these chemical reactions align with optimal functioning of our system.
If deprived or over-burdened, at night, during rebuilding and regenerating,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], our system is mostly trying to keep up with robbing "Peter to pay Paul," or figuring out what to do with the excess and repairing the breakdown in our system from the excess. This is quite a wasteful expenditure of our energy when we need our energy available each day and night for the important job of keeping our organs, tissues,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], hormones, and cells operating healthfully.
When I teach a woman to observe herself in this more subtle form of Chi, it is often surprising to her that she is much more plagued with thoughts of fear, worry, or depression,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in relation to her fertility, than she realized consciously. Some of it she was aware of, but the extent of it is more the eye-opener. The chemical by-product of these thoughts and emotions over a prolonged period of time, become burdensome to the system, contributing to a decreased flow of Chi and Blood. It requires practice to become aware,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and then become intentional about our choice of thoughts.
"Ingredients," or choices, are either enhancing or inhibiting our fertile soil. Either our fertility switch is 'on' or 'off.' No woman purposely turns her fertility switch off, but, unknowingly, she could be making choices, day after day, that are preventing optimal and fertile soil. Start where you're at and begin making the best choices you can in order to fertilize your soil in such a way that pregnancy and healthy birth are a natural outcome.
Ample,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], nutritionally and hormonally healthy as well as, Flowing Unimpeded throughout the body Blood: In Chinese Medicine we refill our tank daily with energy or life force, via our food, drink and breath. We must sleep at night in order to repair, rebuild, regenerate and rejuvenate our entire system. This repair work requires a foundation of nourishment that we supply ourselves each day.

4. Be grateful for and enjoy the present moment.
Time Management is a concern for most people these days. Searching the internet will produce many articles with wonderful tips and helpful hints on how to manage time. After reading them,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I began to consider our belief systems about time. Can time really be managed?
5. Create a regular time to relax the mind and expand consciousness for 10 minutes at least once a day. If you have difficulty quieting the mental chatter,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the easiest way to relax the mind is to focus. So, pick your favorite relaxing memory and focus on it in detail using all of your physical senses – what do you see, hear,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], feel, smell and taste?
2. Stop the mental chatter and worry about “not enough time” as soon as it begins.
3. Take 3 deep abdominal breaths at the first sign of worry about time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
After exploring the nature of time, it seems that “time management” is really about “thought management”. In order to expand consciousness and experience more time to do the things you desire to accomplish, try the following things:
6,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Create a list of your 6 most important things to do or create under the heading “I have plenty of time to complete the following”.
What?!?!? Quantum physics says that everthing that exists is energy. That means that our bodies, our thoughts, our emotions, and everything in our material world is energy. In fact,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], we literally live in a sea of energy. Imagine the ocean with its warm spots, cold spots, turbulent spots and currents. Water molecules are continually flowing in and out of those areas, but they maintain their characteristic warmth or coldness or turbulence or current. This is how we look at the quantum level. We are all energy, flowing in and out, fully connected together and yet maintaining our individual essences. So if we are constantly moving energy, then the field of life is not static and our consciousness is not moving at a fixed speed. Time is created in the mind. Our perception of time is based on our consciousness. The more expanded our consciousness is, the more expanded our perception of time becomes. Hung Tzu-ch’eng says “whether time is long or short, and whether space is broad or narrow,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], depends upon the mind. Those whose minds are at leisure can feel one day as a millennium, and those whose thoughts are expansive can perceive a small house to be as spacious as the universe.” I have experienced this often. As a therapist, I work with guided imagery, hypnosis and other modalities that deeply relax a person and allow their consciousness to expand. In that expanded state, five minutes can feel like an entire hour and an hour can feel like it passed in the blink of an eye. Albert Einstein explained relativity of time this way: “When you sit with a nice girl for two hours,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you think it’s only a minute. But when you sit on a hot stove for a minute, you think it’s two hours. That’s relativity.”
David Cameron, in A Happy Pocketful of Money,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], explores the topic of time and what quantum physicists have to say about the nature of it. In his theory of relativity, Albert Einstein proved that time is relative and that time as we have defined it - consistent fixed increments that can be divided into past, present and future - does not really exist. He says “the distinction between past, present and future is only an illusion, however persistent.” Ok, so if time is not comprised of consistent fixed increments, then what is it? Well, Cameron explains time as “the moving of your consciousness past pre-existing events in the space-time continuum.”
7. As you begin each task on your list,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], take 15 seconds and visualize how good it will feel to have it completed and feel the good feeling.
The fact that time is created in our mind is really wonderful information to have. We are the creators of our reality and so what we believe is what we create. Do you feel as if you don’t have enough time to do the things you want and need to get done? Well, if you believe it, then it is true. When you think,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], speak and act on the belief that there is not enough time, then you are making your consciousness smaller and slower and you will experience what you believe to be true.
1,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Affirm to yourself regularly that there is plenty of time for everything.

1. This may be obvious, or maybe not,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but look for the words “pure essential oil” on the label. If the bottle says “fragrance oil”,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], “fragrant oil”,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], “perfume oil”,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or even “aromatherapy oil” the chances are this is a synthetic product. Remember there is no legal definition of “aromatherapy” so anyone can use the term.
To help you make sure you are getting “the real thing”, here are my top 6 tips for buying essential oils –
Anyone who has had any experience of aromatherapy knows how powerful these volatile oils can be and the wonderful effects they can have.
7. Know your supplier. Try to buy from reputable companies and from sources that give the above information or are prepared to answer your questions. Most essential oils on the market are produced for the food & beverage, cosmetics or pharmaceutical industries,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], not specifically for aromatherapy. So your supplier is very important.
3. The essential oil bottle should be dark, preferably amber, glass. Oils will react with plastic, so any fragrance sold in plastic will not be a pure essential oil. Clear glass will cause the oil to deteriorate due to exposure to light. For the same reason, essential oils should be kept in a cool dark place to preserve them.
4. Purchase essential oils in bottles with a dripolator plug in the top. These are vastly superior to bottles with eyedroppers. A dripolator will regulate the flow of essential oil and prevent spillage of the whole bottle even if the cap is off. However once an eyedropper cap is removed the top of the bottle is open and can easily spill. It is also more dangerous around children,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], should they ever get their hands on them. Another consideration that I discovered myself, is that some essential oils will react with the rubber on the eyedropper, causing it to deteriorate and contaminate your oil.

5. Look for a botanical name on the bottle. This is the latin name given to each species. For example, true lavender is lavandula angustifolia,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], mandarin is citrus reticulata and grapefruit is citrus paradisi. While common names can sometimes be unclear, the botanical name will always be more precise. Several species may be given the same common name, eg eucalyptus, cedarwood or chamomile and there can be safety issues with some oils which are only clear when the correct botanical name is used. There are numerous examples of oils where the common name used does not at all relate to the oil’s actual botanical classification.
Go into any new age or health food store or any candle or homewares shop and chances are you will see little bottles of fragrant oil.
6. Be aware of price. Be suspicious if someone is selling all their oils for the same price. Sandalwood essential oil should be more expensive than lavender; citrus oils are usually some of the cheapest essential oils. A high price is not a guarantee of quality, but you can usually guarantee that those extremely cheap oils will not be good quality and may not even be genuine essential oils.
But all oils are not the same. How do you know what you are buying? There are an enormous number of synthetic oils on the market,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but true aromatherapy uses only the best pure plant extracts. These are true “essential oils” and are, in my opinion, the only ones to purchase.
8. And lastly,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], if in doubt,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], consult a qualified aromatherapist for advice.
2. Look for “100% essential oil”. Many more precious oils are diluted at 3-5% in a base oil such as jojoba, to make the price more attractive. But such oils are useless in a vaporiser as they are simply not strong enough. These dilutions do have their uses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but the fact they are diluted should be clearly stated. Some producers list these with other pure essential oils, so you can only know the difference if you look very closely at the label. If you are unsure then an easy way to test for yourself is to place a drop of the oil on absorbent paper. A pure essential oil will evaporate leaving little or no mark on the paper. A diluted oil will leave a greasy oil mark and will not evaporate.

3. When you're finally tired of the 'sad'-'glad' merry-go-round,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], it'll be time for you to dig deeper inside, because neither feeling 'glad' nor feeling 'sad' are telling you anything like the whole, true story. "Depression," they say, "is anger turned inward." Underneath the furious rebellion that makes you feel 'glad' and the self-punishing depression that makes you feel 'sad' lies a complex of emotions that you'll eventually be able to recognize as 'mad.' You're angry! You're pissed off! You've been following your convictions about what was the right things to do all the way along (and working rather hard at it, I'm sure), and now it all feels worthless. So, you've become furious. You're furious at your career; you're furious at your family; you're even furious at yourself. And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when you're tired of being furiously sad, you break out and become furiously glad. When you look at it all like that, it doesn't look too pretty: in effect, you're having a tantrum.
Glad -> Sad -> Mad -> Scared: every step down the emotional ladder takes you closer to a core reality that you really don't want to have to look at (or even let into your conscious awareness). Midlife works on your core of self-esteem rather like having your own personal Three Mile Island: you've uncovered your nuclear core and you're in meltdown. If you'd only allow the transition to do its work properly, you'd gradually become aware that your whole life is just a facade built upon other people's expectations (and your own assumptions) and that you haven't any clear idea who you really are, what you really want, or where you're really going. If you have enough courage to push away the denial and smokescreens to look coldly at the facts, you'd see how true that is.
Let's take a look at the kinds of feelings that you can expect to experience during the midlife transition.
4. Yet, getting yourself in a rage over your situation is really a powerful — but only a thinly-veiled — attempt at hiding the truth from yourself and everyone else. Underneath the manic gladness and the depressive sadness, underneath the rageful anger, there lies the most unacceptable emotion of them all. Deep down, you're scared. For a man, almost all emotions are unacceptable (except anger, occasionally). And,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the most unacceptable emotion of them all is to be 'scared'. Still, that's the operative emotion at the core of the midlife transition. You've lost your way; you don't know which way to go; and there's nobody there you can trust to help you, In fact, merely acknowledging that you might need help may well be the most unthinkable thought of all.
We know one thing for certain regarding midlife: it's an emotional maelstrom. The principal difference between your reactions to the emotions that you experience during the midlife transition and the ones you endured during puberty lies in the fact that you're so much more adept at finding creative ways to stuff, deny, and project your feelings away from yourself so that you won't have either to show with them or deal with them . . . at least for now.
1. First of all, the majority of what you're going to be feeling during this period of your life isn't all that comfortable. Probably the least common experience will be to be feeling 'glad,' so I suspect that this one is the most superficial of your feelings. When does a guy in midlife feel glad? Most often,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], when things are going well for him and he's getting his own way. Often, there's an 'I'll show them' attitude attached to it, or a rebellious sense of thumbing your nose at customary propriety.
What do you think that midlife feels like? I suspect that most people going through this experience would say, "Confusing." Yet, any first-year psych major would be able to tell you that 'confusion' isn't a feeling. Feelings, when boiled down to their basic essences, come in only about four flavors: 'mad,' 'sad,' 'glad,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych],' and 'scared.' The confusion comes from an inability (or unwillingness) to get down and dirty and really identify the feelings that are churning around down there. It's often the case that, on one hand, you do recognize how you feel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], on the other hand,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], your intellect tells you, "That can't be true! I can't be feeling that way!" As a result, your mind and your emotions end up at war with each other. It's not pretty.

As I just mentioned, the midlife transition is actually perfectly simple. Yet, in its simplicity lies its power to terrify even the most courageous of men and women. God, they say, is utterly simple. Yet, in God's perfect simplicity lies his ineffability. In Hebrew, אהיה אשר אהיה (ehyeh asher ehyeh): "I will be who I will be." At the core of your own being, laid bare by the transformation at midlife, is the simplicity of the personhood who you are. In your own being, in your own connection with Being, lies the meaning that's waiting only for your permission to infuse your life. It's in that act of acceptance of the person who you are and who you're meant to become that you can find the courage to lay down (at long last) the need to prove anything to anyone. When you stand there within your personhood, without the layers and walls of pretense, go barefoot: the place where you stand is holy ground.
Author's Bio:&nbsp,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych];
2. But,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], what happens when you're not getting your own way? Evidently, you'll probably be feeling 'sad.' For whatever reason, your career, your relationship, or your health may have hit a wall. Or, even more likely, they're not at an impasse, they just aren't getting any better. You're tired. You're emotionally spent. You're sad. You may feel so sad that you just want to give up, or, alternatively, just chuck it all away for good. At least on the surface, that may seem like the only way to get out of the dumps and to start feeling 'glad' again (see #1).
You'd also see the utter simplicity of the solution. You don't have to do anything. You don't have to change anything about your life. The only thing you have to change is your mind. The Greek philosopher, Epictetus, learned this lesson dramatically. As a young man, he was captured by the Romans and sold into slavery and bought to tutor the children of a wealthy Roman family. His midlife transition came when his rebellion, sadness, and anger had played themselves out in pure frustration over his condition. He looked through all that was left (his fear) and saw his condition as it really was — not like he wished it would be. That day, he said to his master, "Master, from this day forward, I am no longer your slave; because,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], starting today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I choose to serve you freely." For the structure of his life, nothing had changed. From the core of his life, nothing was the same.

U,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].S,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's replacement on Wednesday will rattle to the core of the North Korea hardline faction in the Bush administration led by Rumsfeld and Vice President Dick Cheney.
The pair were the leading hawks in the administration,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], pressuring the North and digging in their heels whenever the doves in the State Department called for dialogue with Pyongyang. The hawks apparently drove Colin Powell out of his job as secretary of state when he called for negotiations with the North.
Essentially,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the hawks doubt North Korea's willingness to give up its nuclear weapons and do not trust Pyongyang. When President George W. Bush announced he will seek ��common ground�� with the Democrats in national security and replaced Rumsfeld,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he hinted his North Korea policy will reflect the wishes of the Democrats for direct dialogue with the North. Cheney, who has been under fire from the public, may also see his leadership eroded over the next two years as the neocons in the administration take a back seat.

Outgoing U.S. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], left,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], looks at President George W. Bush in the Oval Office of the White House in Washington on Wednesday./AP
Experts predict that Bush will start reviewing his North Korea policy by appointing a special policy coordinator under the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2007. Some say the coordinator will be James Baker,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], who was secretary of state under Bush senior.
The Democrats Senator Joseph Biden and Congressman Tom Lantos, who have been urging direct bilateral talks with Pyongyang,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], are likely to be named chairmen of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and the House International Relations Committee. Lantos vowed Thursday to work for a ��radical change in course�� in the nation's foreign policy.
But pundits predict that the basic framework of the Bush administration's North Korean policy will go unchanged as Bush's perception of North Korea as part of an ��axis of evil�� is rooted in his religious convictions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while the Democrats are not that different in how they regard North Korea. Any direct dialogue with Pyongyang,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], will come in the framework of six-nation talks on the North's nuclear program.

Nobody wants to settle for a life without the things they really want, but what if you’re still unsure of what those things are for you? How do you move forward to create a life that fills you with joy?
To support this process you can download our free Values Exercise,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which you can find by visiting our website and clicking on “Free Stuff”.
If so,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you're on the right track. Asking yourself these types of questions is an essential first step in creating a life you love. At the same time it’s also the cause of much confusion and frustration for many people.
Have you ever stopped and asked yourself any of these questions:
If you're like most people, more than anything else you want to be happy. Authentic happiness usually comes when our lives have a sense of meaning and purpose. If this is true for you, then the question becomes, how can I figure out what is most meaningful to me and how can I live my life in ways that make me truly happy?
We suggest that you begin looking at your life as a glorious, never ending stream of opportunities (or whatever metaphor works for you). Realize that what you REALLY WANT changes with time and from situation to situation. What you really wanted when you were younger is probably very different that what you want now. What you really want in your professional life may be very different from what you want at home or with friends.
This is not about finding your "life's purpose." In fact, we think that "life purpose" is often just a strategy you choose that best helps you to live in harmony with your core values. It's more of a means to experience what you value than an end. If this is the case, can you see how knowing your core values would help you find purpose and meaning in your life that would be very satisfying?
• What do I love to do,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
• How do I love to spend my time?
• What makes me feel good?
• When am I most passionate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
This is the beginning of figuring out what you REALLY WANT,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. The more you practice this the more you will start living a values driven life. The more your life reflects your values the happier you are -- which turns out is what most of us REALLY WANT in the first place.
A deeper look may reveal things you never knew about yourself--and without being clear about those things,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you may never discover how to find true,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], authentic happiness. Read on to find out how to determine exactly what you need to be happy now. And in this article you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that this time it’s not all about finding “your life's purpose."
As with any questions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there are many ways these can be answered, and no question is ever as straightforward as it seems. So with that said, we would like to start with the understanding that you will REALLY WANT many things as you live your life. A common frustration many people have comes from believing that "by now" they should have figured out "THE" thing that will give their life meaning--the one thing they were meant to be,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], do, or have.
• What is the purpose of my life?
• Why am I here,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]?
• What do I really want?
Answering these questions will help you start identifying what's most important to you--what you truly value.
To get clearer about this we suggest you start investigating different areas of your life to discover what's deeply important to you, what might be missing for you,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and what would be the most wonderful way to spend your time. The clearer you become about this, the clearer you will become about the things you really want. Once you begin letting go of the idea that there's only one thing that you want,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you're freed up to notice an abundance of opportunities for creating a meaningful life.
To discover your core values we suggest you start by answering questions like these:
Once you identify what you truly value, we suggest you start investigating different areas of your life. Notice if you experience these values in those areas. If they are easy for you to spot then celebrate--you already have what you really want. If you're not experiencing them as much as you'd like, this is an opportunity to figure out concrete ways that you can start to experience more of what you value most.
