It's Time To Get Planting... :)

If you have an 'Organic Acres' garden in the USA, like we do, you may have seen that it's time now to start choosing the seeds you'd like to grow on your plot this season :) There is currently a list of 72 different produce items you can choose from, inside your OrganicAcres back office. I just chose 23 crops for our plot :)

Lemon-Basil * Zucchini Squash * Butter Cos Lettuce * Buttercrunch Lettuce * Pac Choi * Cilantro * Cumin * Dill * Broccoli * Cucumbers * Carrots * Cherry Tomatoes * Italian Parsley * Spinach * Stupice Tomatoes * Summertime Lettuce * Sugar Snap Peas * Celery * Broccoli * Yellow Pear Tomato * Wonder Bell Pepper * Superpik Squash * Purple Haze Carrots

WOW :)))) I am EXCITED to see what we receive from the land there this year - as and when we're back in the US we'll be able to enjoy some of it ourselves, or otherwise I imagine it will be sent as love offerings to Mr. Monarch's family... ;)
If you don't yet have an Organic Acres garden plot and would love to know more, click HERE for more details...

THANK YOU!

Love,

Risa

This morning I did what I believe will be my last read–through of my book ‘Raw Emotions’ before it goes to the printer – :O – YES, I am VERRRRYYYYYY very excited to see that process through :) This will be my first ‘real’ printed book and I will be so thrilled to see it appear in the physical :) In the meantime, here is a passage from the book that jumped out to me today as smthg that might be fun to share here – hope you enjoy ;)

Is it ‘You’, ‘I’ or ‘Them’…?
I recommend taking ‘ownership’ for your own feelings and experiences, particularly as you speak. When many people speak, they generalise the topic away from themselves by saying something like ‘You feel rejected when someone doesn’t like your ideas’, when the real meaning is ‘I feel rejected when someone doesn’t like my ideas’.
If we regularly use this kind of ‘distancing’ with language, it is less easy for us to be aware and present with our emotions and experiences, because we’re always ‘projecting’ them away from ourselves. Create clarity in your expression and ‘own’ your feelings as you speak. If you mean ‘I feel/I want/I am’, then say ‘I’ rather than ‘you’.
A similar pattern occurs when people speak vaguely about ‘they/them’, referring to some undefined group of people, often inferred to be opposed to ‘us’. Examples might be ‘They keep raising the cost of living’, ‘How can they let someone get away with that?’ or even ‘They say Italy is beautiful in spring’. This lack of clarity leaves questions hanging in curious minds: who are ‘they’? How did ‘they’ become something different from ‘us’? Where do the opinions and actions of this invisible ‘they’ come from?
This kind of expression reinforces an outdated, separatist model of ‘them vs. us’, often with some sense of victimisation and oppression, rather than an understanding that we are all connected. I usually sense these speech patterns as disempowering and unclear. Speaking with integrity and clarity of expression, rather than in vague, generalised terms, will assist your alignment with truth; it can help you feel more secure in your self and more aware of what you perceive. Be clear about what you think and feel and who ‘they’ really are.

;) You can get the E–book version of Raw Emotions HERE and all being well, the printed version will be with us sometime in March or April I would think, once the printers have worked their papery magic ;) yeeeeeeeeeeeeee–HAH :)

LOVED this ‘Big Idea’ sent out today from Brian Johnson at the PhilosophersNotes.com site, in his free daily email:

“Tony Robbins : Rearview Mirrors

Got this one from a great Tony Robbins seminar:

My hunch is you're a pretty good driver.
Question for you: When you're driving, do you spend all your time staring in the rearview mirror? Right. So why do we spend so much time staring in the rearview mirror of life?!?

Rearview mirrors have a purpose. A very limited one. Let's look back to learn the valuable lessons our experience has to teach us. And spend the rest of the time enjoying the moment and looking at the future!”

So great :) Thanks for sharing all the amazing pointers, Brian :) If you, dear reader, have not yet signed up for your FREE account at PhilosophersNotes.com to access 25 of the self–development book summaries for free, then doooooooooo hop on over to HERE to get in on the yummy mojo action ;) Mr. Johnson’s giving away 1,000,000 free accounts, dontchaknow ;)
We. ARE. sooo. blesssssssed.

All love and jingle–jangles,
Stokes. xxx
