A Note From the Queen Dear Subscriber, Things are crazy. So much needs to get done. It's frustrating when there is traffic and I'm late for the dentist appointment. I hurry to pick up the kids from school, do homework, then go to soccer practice, rush home, feed the family, get the kids in the shower, then to bed. Shoot! I forgot to get dog food and kitty litter. I find my fuse is getting shorter and shorter, In the class, Tye and I are taking, I found my blood pressure was up. The things that cause high pressure are; not drinking enough water, eating too many carbohydrates and stress. I have cut out the carbs. I'm drinking more water. And now I have to get a handle on STRESS! I have to take control of stress because I am killing myself slowly over time, and it's not going to get better until I learn to manage my thinking. This is what I have learned to do: * When I am in traffic I have CD's and tapes in the care that I can listen to. I make that time enjoyable, because there is nothing I can do about traffic * When I am disagreeing with my husband, or a loved one, I have started being conscious of my emotions. I give myself time to feel and think about my emotions. This helps me to find out my truth and then I am able to talk more logically and express my points without being emotional. It has really helped to write these emotions down, its like talking to a counselor . * When the kids are wanting my attention, I have learned to set aside time for them and then explain to them that I have set aside time for the things I need to get done. It is an on going process to feel my feelings and figure out how to express them, I am learning daily, and my blood pressure has gone down. Ya-hoo! Classes Fun Begins With An Egg Spring is in the air or at least hopefully not too far away! We begin to smell the earth again. March is the time for growth all over The Vernal Equinox, occurs this year on Sunday, March 20. It is a time of balance, when day and night are of equal length. It is also a turning point in the sun's journey, when the hours of daylight begin to lengthen gradually until they reach their climax at the Summer Solstice. Use this time for growth of all kinds. Using an egg symbolizes growth and Mother Earth is the womb for that growth I Suggest Having an Egg Blessing Take a hard-boiled egg and mark upon it words and or symbols of what you want to grow in your life. For example: Happiness, Love, Patience, Understanding, and Prosperity. This will be fun to do with your loved ones, each having their own egg. 1. With your bare hands, dig a small hole in some dirt. 2. Place your egg(s) in the hole and cover it. 3. Walk clockwise three times around the burring spot and say: "What has been planted has now grown. I am grateful for all of these blessing in my life."

HERE IS THE PART THAT IS VERY INTERESTING! Margarine is but ONE MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC. This fact alone was enough to have me avoiding margarine for life and anything else that is hydrogenated Hydrogenated implies that hydrogen is added to the product, changing the molecular structure of the substance. YOU can try this yourself: Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it in your garage or shaded area. Within a couple of days you will notice the lack of flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it (that should tell you something) . The margarine does not rot or smell differently. It has no nutritional value, nothing will grow on it, even those teenie weenie micro-organisms will not a find a home to grow. Why?Because it is nearly plastic. Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast? About The Queen Teacher-Speaker-Lifestyle Coach.
