Holiday Helper #7 Turn Obligations into Energizers.

December 13, 2010 by Julie Lusk

Turn obligations into energizers. Rituals and traditions that characterize our celebrations can stimulate spiritual reflection, excitement and wonder.

Even exciting tasks, repeated year after year, may turn into obligations. Creatively update tasks so they provide new energy. If anything conjures up an image of drudgery, try a new approach that can energize you.

Traditions can help us get through the difficult times when our feelings don’t quite match the occasion.

How are you updating your holiday traditions? Please let us know thru the comment box.

SPICES for Life © Workshop

Discover how to create, balance and enrich professional and personal power through a comprehensive approach to living.

SPICES represents the six components of wellness:

Social
Physical
Intellectual
Career
Emotional
Spiritual Health

SPICES for Life © is a comprehensive approach to wellness and stress management that includes all the components for creating and maintaining professional and personal power.

Wellness goes far beyond the freedom from illness. It emphasizes each individual’s uniqueness along with the importance of self-responsibility and a positive attitude for personal well being.

SPICES represents the six components of wellness: Social, Physical, Intellectual, Career, Emotional and Spiritual health and well being. Each dimension is equally important to living a well-rounded, successful life. Paying equal attention to each aspect by developing and balancing them throughout life is important and results in wholesome living which is stimulating, productive and vital.

SPICES for Life workshops provide an introduction to wellness and motivates people to make appropriate changes for improving health and well-being.

Additionally, SPICES for Life can also provide a structure for a well rounded employee wellness program. Ideally, this format starts with an introductory session which trains participants on the concepts and advantages of professional and personal well being and motivates them to pursue lifestyle improvements. Sessions on each wellness dimension follow to further understanding and prompt individual lifestyle changes that are positive in nature. Each session will help participants:

Understand the dynamics and importance of overall wellness as well as for each dimension of well being
Provide a self assessment to measure personal well being
Motivate participants to identify and undertake lifestyle changes that meet their individual needs

Stop Look Listen

October 17, 2012 by Julie Lusk

It’s the fall where I live and the trees are bright with color, the air is crisp and feels delightfully cool. Too bad I’ve been too busy to really notice it.

Luckily I came across a quote from Ferris Bueller. He says, “Life moves pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.” Not only did that become the reading and theme for yoga class, it inspired me to take the afternoon off and enjoy the fall beauty.

Here’s a quote from Nathaniel Hawthorne who said “I cannot endure to waste anything so precious as autumnal sunshine by staying in the house.”

How about you? Have you been buzzing through life and missing out on what’s important? It will do you some real good to take some time out. It doesn’t even have to take much time. Remember, even a 5 minute break really helps.

Here’s a mini-meditation from my Mind-Body Mastery eBook that can be done anytime and anywhere. Your awareness will increase and it will settle your mind down and clear your head.

Stop – Look – Listen Mini-Meditation

Stop – Notice your posture . . . breath . . . energy level . . . mood . . . mental activity.
Look – Blink your eyes several times. Look at something far away and discover the details in what you see. Blink again.
Look at something close up. Discover the details.
Listen – Listen to sounds come and go. Simply observe without judging. No resistance. No clinging. Simply listen.
Smile.

Your Native Flute is made by Dave Lusk, a lifelong musician. His mastery of hand-making 14k gold and sterling silver concert flutes and restoring flutes, piccolos, and other woodwinds are applied to designing, carving, and tuning your flute to perfection.

These handmade Native American style flutes have a full, warm sound. They easily play softly or with gusto. They are expertly crafted from western red cedar because of its beauty and coupled with its amazing sound. It’s lightweight which adds to its playability.

Accurately tuned to 440.
Flutes are shaped and tuned by hand with specialized tools. Each flute is beautifully embellished with unique designs handcrafted with a wood-burner.
An innovative thumb rest is added to secure and balance the flute while playing. It positions your lower hand correctly. Place the thumb of the lower hand against the bottom of the thumb rest. The index finger covers the hole right above. This makes playing flute an absolute joy.
Flutes are protected by non-toxic waterproofing, inside and out.
A handmade cleaning rod is provided to easily swab moisture out of the flute after playing. This takes care of wetting out.
