How you ever wondered why the Hindu God Lord Ganesha is often shown with his foot on or near a mouse?

 

The mouse represents our negative, critical, ego-based thoughts and Ganesha is showing that it takes vigilance to keep the persistent mouse from slowly chewing up our life.

 

The bad news is that the mice never goes away — ever.

 

The good news is that we can tame them such that these negative thoughts cease to rule our consciousness.

 

In this LIVE JumpStart, we’ll explore how to tame our ego thoughts and stay happy and upbeat especially during this time of change and isolation.

Ancient Greeks believed that the mind—the center of consciousness, is located NOT in your head but, rather, throughout your entire body.

 

Therefore, to relax the mind we need to relax the entire body.

 

In today’s very special JumpStart I lead you through a guided meditation to fully relax your body so that your mind can simultaneously become relaxed.

 

WARNING: This is NOT a JumpStart to listen to while driving or engaged in another activity.

 

This is a JumpStart to SAVE and use on a daily basis to become more relaxed, calmer, less reactive and more happy.

 

Be sure and share this JumpStart with people you care about.

OK, sometimes I have perhaps too much time on my hands to ponder things. But, I think you’ll find today’s JumpStart quite revealing (and possibly life-changing). Today, let’s explore how our body seems to know, almost by magic, to back off one illness as another becomes more dominant. Then, consider that if your body is already regulating your level of illness (to one extent or another) just how far can we go to create and regulate ever-increasing levels of health? (BOOM — sound of mind-exploding) Your body and your mind are not separate— they’re one. So, perhaps through conscious mental control we can become more healthy every day. And, may I ask you a favor? If you got something out of today’s JumpStart, would you please forward it on to someone else? Together, let’s build a community of positivity as make the world a better place. And, remember to post your questions and comments — I respond to them all.

It’s every parent’s nightmare—and I lived it. You round the corner pulling onto the highway and there flipped on its side and smoldering is your child’s car. This happened to me one snowy Kansas City afternoon. But Lia is not the only one in our family to have a bad accident recently and the outcomes of the two events could not have been more different — our could they? In today’s JumpStart let’s explore a Tale of Two Accidents and perhaps a new perspective on what we consider “bad news.” And, may I ask you a favor? If you got something out of today’s JumpStart, would you please forward it on to someone else? Together, let’s build a community of positivity as we make the world a better place. And, remember to post your questions and comments — I respond to them all.

Which is better, to be smart or to be kind? For decades I THOUGHT I knew the answer to this question — but, I was wrong. I actually found the correct answer by re-watching the classic Jimmy Stewart movie “Harvey.” You’ve probably seen the movie. Stewart plays Elwood P. Dowd, a true eccentric if ever there was one, who somehow manages to charm everyone he meets. And therein lies the answer. In the movie, Harvey is a Puka — an invisible spirit that teaches important life lessons to mortals like you and me. Only Elwood P. Dowd could see Harvey and he saw him as 7-foot rabbit who loved to booze it up. Today, I’ll not only teach you the answer to the question of kindness vs. smarts but also how to more fully integrate this into your life. And, may I ask you a favor?

If I called you on your cellphone right now, what would you hear? Some generic little ringtone created by someone who works for the company who built your phone? Or, is your ringtone a statement that reinforces not only who you are but the person you’re becoming? Many people pick a ringtone that let’s the world know something about themselves but I’m encouraging you to select a song that reminds you of your own evolving soul? This little act can make you happier, healthier, and move you more quickly toward your goals. Get ready to adopt a whole new personal theme song that will change your life starting today. And, may I ask you a favor? If you got something out of today’s JumpStart, would you please forward it on to someone else?

The other day someone pointed out something I do unconsciously that helps me and others put a positive spin on things. We all experience pain, suffering, disappointment, and even minor irritation on a daily basis. The question is, do we emphasize the struggle or do we seek the blessing that lies behind our challenge. Depending on how you answer that question you’ll either find life a burden or a blessing and the choice is up to you. Today, I’m going to teach you how to reframe life’s problems so that they pass quickly and you’re left with something positive. And, may I ask you a favor? If you got something out of today’s JumpStart, would you please forward it on to someone else? Together, let’s build a community of positivity as we make the world a better place. And, remember to post your questions and comments — I respond to them all.

The more I study the life of Fred Rogers the more I appreciate and admire this man who taught many of us that we’re special “Just the way we are.” You might be surprised to know that Mr. Rogers was an ordained Presbyterian minister who’s ministry was, specifically designed for children who watched his program. IMr. Rogers got on his knees every evening and prayed — but never for himself. He only prayed for others. Why? And, more importantly, did anyone ever pray for Mr. Rogers? Yes, and he had a very unique way of making sure his prayers were covered. In today’s JumpStart I’m going to teach you not only how to receive prayers but, like Mr. Rogers, how to spread praying among others in a gentle non-invasive way.. Get ready to receive prayer like never before as we explore, “Can you say, ‘Prayer?’” Sure, I knew you could :-D And, may I ask you a favor?
