Social Conditioning

DEVELOPMENT Goes on in OLD AGE

Easter Sunday was last April 4. I would think I would have fewer CHALLENGES. But No! For he past three days I have had stomach issues and unwanted posts in my NewsFeeds.

I keep blocking some 5 new entrants but they keep reappearing with vengeance. Two of the new entrants from Religious groups SOW so much negativity.

Thank God POSITIVE CHRISTIANITY has been integrated enough into my consciousness.

I am also thankful to a newspaper clipping last week listing DEVELOPMENT skills for children which I need to survive the negativity from the new entrants in my NewsFeeds:
Imagining Memory and Attention Self-care and Autonomy
Developing peer relationship Adaptive Social Behavior
Problem Solving Fine Motor Control

PALINDROMES

At age 77yrs, I can never sleep straight for hours at night. The longest duration I recall is 6 hours straight. When I wake up in the middle of the night, I converse with God. Ooops. Not so. I don’t give God a chance to talk. I tell God story after story. Then I make an alphabetized roll call of my many PRAYER WARRIORS from the dead. Sometimes I fall back to sleep without finishing the roll call.

Lately when I could not go back to sleep, I did PALINDROMES. These are words spelled the same way whether it is read from left to right or from right to left. Examples are ABBA and MAAM.

I discovered only letter P can form palindromes with each of the vowels:

PAP PEP PIP POP PUP

I wonder what I can do next!

Accidental Learnings

Since we are not allowed out of our unit I repotted a plant using a lot of banana peels and cucumber slices with a minimum amount of real soil. This was around lastMarch 15. The plant is still ALIVE. Thank God.

I rely on YouTube for my health needs. I discovered that the recommended warm lemon juice on an empty stomach is bad for me because of problems with the lining of my stomach. My doctor told me this was caused by too much antibiotics during my childhood. I learned from actual experience and from YouTube that I need a light protein meal before going to bed. I also learned that my stomach wants oatmeal with honey early in the morning.

Best of all I discovered several Positive Christianity prayers which have practically healed me of worries and anxieties. I have been convinced that my human mind can only think of so many details but God has all the answers. I learned this the very hard way. But what FREEDOM I now enjoy.

REJOICE

I really rejoice that L.E.N.T. is over. I did not fast according to the traditional Catholic tradition. After all I am over 70 yrs old. I did not abstain from meat either. I hardly eat meat because my stomach does not agree with it. Sometimes I eat chicken. But my staple food is SALMON.

 From the beginning I observed L.E.N.T. of Positive Christianity (Let's Eliminate Negative Thinking). Sadly I often broke my Fast. Last March 31, the last day for our food outlets I was overwhelmed with FEAR that Emil would go hungry during the Holy Week. I ordered too much food so our fridge was overfilled with food just like last November when Emil's Chinese students sent so much fruits. I can't remember what holiday they were celebrating then.

 Then a family upstairs tested positive for the virus. The building rules already strict for SENIORS became stringent. We were confined to our unit. We still are. Emil was not even allowed to go down to the garden  for his daily walk.

 Good Friday and Black Saturday,! For two days I had no crossword puzzles.Thank God for the INTERNET. I had Facebook, YouTube and lots of Music.

 Last Saturday morning, before the Zoom prayer meeting for my dead sister-in-law (ala Lent talaga) in my own prayer time I clearly heard God telling me to stop complaining about the ABUNDANCE (of Wine). I was peeved by the many bottles of wine from the Chinese students because they occupied so much space in my area. Two were clearly  in red boxes for Christmas.What?! I will have to live with them till December?

 Anyway God said:"Accept the ABUNDANCE for DISTRIBUTION"

Affirmations

The affirmation of Dr Harry Henshaw’s video for hypertension is the best for me even when my blood pressure is normal.

I like the affirmation in the videos of Elke Neher, those of Lucy Herzig Veritas,also those of the Windhorse subliminals.

PowerThoughtsMeditation Club has several relevant affirmations.

I like what Dr kim D’Eramo and Brad Yeats say as they tap for different issues.

The affirmations in several accelarators are very useful.

Dr Wayne Dyer has meditations/affirmations which i find more serious than those mentioned earlier.

MrleneKm47 has an EFT video for blood pressure. What she says is more fun than the others.
