  • Stress is the silent killer. Mental and emotional stress affects every cell in the body.
    by /u/KundalinirRZA on April 11, 2021 at 9:59 pm

    The mind can turn the body's pH from acidic to alkaline in a matter of minutes. Stress can adversely affect the genetic makeup in your body; the mind can positively or negatively affect DNA. One of the fastest and easiest to feel, method to counteract stress, comes from a natural reaction that our physical body has to us having consistent/strong enough positive thoughts. Whether from positive memories, thanking God, thinking about your future plans, someone you love, inspiring or moving moments in life/movies/songs. Really consider the fact that from just thinking certain positive thoughts your whole physical body can get chills all over it or just in certain locations (for now). If you take time to notice you will find that your self induced positive chills have an accompanying sort of wave underneath your skin (sometimes cold and other times hot). After researching what that specific current underneath the skin is I came across a sort of energy we have that is tied to our spirit. I've found many names for this Energy like Spiritual chills, Euphoria, Voluntary goosebumps, Ecstasy, Prana, Chi, Qi, Vayus, Aura, Mana, Life force, Pitī, Rapture, Ruah, Ether, Nephesch, Chills, Goosebumps, The Force and many more. Now consider this if you can truly induce that feel good occurence at will, you can definitely use it to counteract feelings of stress. If you would like to know how to take control of that energy and how to, at will, stop that paralyzing feeling of stress on it's track.

  • The Way of the Heart
    by clubs@charityfocus.org on April 10, 2021 at 7:00 am

    "According to the great wisdom traditions of the West (Christian, Jewish, Islamic), the heart is first and foremost an organ of spiritual perception. Its primary function is to look beyond the obvious, the boundaried surface of things, and see into a deeper reality, emerging from some unknown profundity, which plays lightly upon the surface of this life without being caught there: a world where meaning, insight, and clarity come together in a whole different way." Cynthia Bourgeault shares more in this beautiful, in-depth essay.

  • Before You Know Kindness: A Poem by Naomi Shihab Nye
    by clubs@charityfocus.org on April 9, 2021 at 7:00 am

    "Before you know what kindness really is you must lose things, feel the future dissolve in a moment like salt in a weakened broth." Thus begins Naomi Shihab Nye's poem Kindness, animated poignantly by Ana Perez Lopez for the On Being Project. The poem, first published in 1980 and read softly here by the poet, contrasts strikingly with the typographical approach to the animation done during the pandemic lockdown of 2020. "Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside, you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing." Nye's words have relevance for us now as we not only negotiate great losses but reemerge to a new normal, with Kindness, for "only Kindness makes sense anymore".

Because when it comes to people, normal is an artificial construct, the center of a statistical bell curve but not a standard that we ought to seek to achieve, even if we could.
