Same Rock Podcast

I was invited to be a guest on “Same Rock” podcast to talk about Food with a group of individuals. This podcast was AMAZING and I am grateful that I was able to hear different perspectives from others but also get understanding. I think it’s important to get understanding with all things as the Bible says; because it will help us better relate to others as well as understand their perspective. As we learn their perspective, we might even learn some things ourselves. Go Check

Emotions affect the HEART

*information obtained from Eight Weeks To Optimum Health by Andrew Weil, M.D The sympathetic (arousing) branch of the involuntary nervous system dominates at the time of heart attacks; during that time the heart muscle might be predisposed (inclined) to go into ventricular fibrillation, which is when the heart muscle goes into a chaotic useless movement that leads to death within minutes. On the other hand, if the parasympathetic (relaxing) nerves are dominant during a heart

STOP SIGN “MOMENT”

In LIFE we will all have “STOP SIGN” moments; which are moments that make us stop what we are doing and either adjust, change, grow or do whatever is needed to solve the issue. Stop Sign Moments could be: Getting Sick Getting Injuried Losing a Job/Career Losing Money Losing a loved one/friend/pet Lack of funds to pay bills Etc….. No matter what the issue is, you will have to “STOP” and consider your next move. However, you should not focus on that you are being STOPPED but yo

Plant Based Meat Alternatives Are Not Food

*information obtained from Larrabee Herbs (located in Elmwood Park, Illinois) DO YOU KNOW WHAT HEXANE is ? HEXANE — made from crude oil. Pure n-hexane is a colorless liquid with a slightly disagreeable odor. The major use for solvents containing hexane is to extract vegetable oils from crops such as soybeans. Inhaling hexane causes nerve damage and paralysis of the arms and legs. If hexane is spilled on the ground, most of it evaporates before it can soak into the soil. Hexan

The Inevitable

It’s futile to argue or fight against your purpose — Pastor Darby Ministries Trying to fight the inevitable is a frustrating life. If you are fighting something that is going to happen, that is futility. If you learn how to embrace what’s going to happen; you will be much happier. CONTROL THE CONTROLLABLE Some negative things need to happen to you so you can grow. For example, in relationships sometimes you have to go through those dark/hard/frustrating times and it seems det

Time is LUXURY

We are so accustomed to BELIEVE that we will be here tomorrow. Tomorrow isn’t promised. We don’t know if we will be here the next second, minute, hour, day, week, month or year. According to Ecology, 55.3 MILLION People Die/ Year 151,600 People Die Each Day — which rounds to about 6,316 people an HOUR!!! According to Worldometers.info — there has already been 3 Million + Deaths this year alone & this year has just begun. Only 21 days into the year (even though the new year is

Link Calories to Required Activity to Burn Calories

I feel that the greatest thing that food manufacturers or food companies could do for us is; to create a chart that links the calories in there foods to the required activity mandatory to burn those calories. For example, if you were aware that it would take more than 10+ minutes of intense training just to burn off a miniature candy bar ( I said miniature not full size candy bar) then you would be more logical with your food choices. I’m not coming on how to say I don’t cons

Self Perception Pulling You Down. Can you see it?

People are slowed down by the self perception of themselves. They aren’t able to obtain their dream life because of the limited beliefs of themselves. They’ve been told so many times that they are something they are not. Others have told them: You’re a failure You’re a mistake You’re a disgrace You’re nothing You’re a disappointment And on and on……… DID YOU KNOW: if you hear something long enough, you start to believe it. (Hence, Santa Claus being real) So if you notice, that

From Doctors 2 Technicians

“A danger we face is a future where doctors will be technicians not physicians” — Unknown I heard this quote while watching a YouTube video and sorry I don’t remember what’s the title of it. But, this quote stuck out like a bald llama. To me this quote meant that future doctors will be technicians and not physicians. Meaning their will be no need of physicians because humans would now be interconnected with technology like some Terminator type ish. We have already been talkin

Social Media…. is it an invasion of PRIVACY?

I’ve been pondering on deleting all my social media accounts because I am now coming to the point that social media is a a tool to spy on others. Meaning they use social media to see what you doing, where you travel to (what airline; so they can better advertise to you, what you like and much more. They gather so much information on you that you made the job easy for marketers. I understand that social media can be beneficial in some cases like you can connect with friends/fa

Betray for Opportunities

We’ve been told to betray for opportunities. We’ve been taught that in order to get the opportunities we desire we have to betray ourselves, betray our family and friends and sometimes even betray our community. WHY would you want to harm another just get a step up on the income chart or hierarchy in your career? I don’t understand why people are so easy to betray like there isn’t karma out here (a.k.a “cause and effect”). There is always a consequence to your actions. So thi

Two Types of Diets

Calorie Restrictive Diet is the type of diet that allows you to eat whatever; as long as you ate fewer calories than your body burned that day. For example, I consumed 1,200 calories but today I burned 1,300 calories which puts me in a caloric restrictive state. This type of diet is hard for most for a couple of reasons: You’ll be turning down your favorite meals, snacks, and drinks. (That should be enough because who turns down baked goods #myweakness) Test your willpower. T

5 Life Questions B4 2020

Proper Preparation Prevents Poor Performance So before 2020; gets here even though the real new year is in spring (hence everything coming back to life; aka new life/new year) but that’s another story lol. Here are 5 questions to ask yourself to see where you are in life and see where you’re headed? Who Am I? Where did I come from? Why Am I Here? What Can I Do? Where Am I Going? Some of these questions may be hard to answer but something is better than nothing. A hint, though

What’s your “Stumble Response” ?

Quote from the book I’m reading “Glory Days” — everyone stumbles; the difference is in the response. This quote simply says; everyone fails, everyone has setbacks, everyone go through rough patches/hard times, everyone have dealt with a tragic event. However, the most important thing you need to focus on is recovering. How you’ll bounce back from the stumble. Everyone will stumble. But it’s not that you stumble but how you react to the stumble. Most of us let that stumble tu

Fail 2 Plan = Plan to Fail

I saw this title inside a book & I thought that it was definitely worthy of a blog post. I’m 50/50 with this quote. One side of me feels that Planning is beneficial. As the say, proper preparation prevents poor performance. Which I agree with; I know that when you are truly prepared everything will flow like water. When you are prepared; you won’t get so stuck in certain positions because your preparation would have helped you see those events in advance. You’re preparation w
