Rudeness Is A Neurotoxin by Martin Teicher/Huffington Post

Excerpt:
A series of studies by a group of psychiatrists and brain imaging scientists 
lead by Martin Teicher, of Harvard Medical School, shows that even hostile words in the form of verbal abuse can cause these brain changes and enduring psychiatric risks for young adults. In a study published in 2006, the researchers showed that parental verbal abuse was more strongly associated with these detrimental effects on brain development than was parental physical abuse. 

In a new study published in the July issue of the American Journal of 
Psychiatry, they report that exposure to verbal abuse from peers is associated with elevated psychiatric symptoms and corpus callosum abnormalities. The main causes are stress hormones, changes in inhibitory neurotransmitters, and environmental experience affecting the formation of myelin electrical insulation on nerve fibers. The most sensitive period for verbal abuse from peers in impairing brain development was exposure during the middle school years. 


Why? Because this is the period of life when these connections are developing in the human brain, and wiring of the human brain is greatly influenced by environmental experience.

2011 New Year's Ritual--from Debbie Ford

2011 New Year's Ritual

The Ritual

• Make a list of 10 experiences that blessed and nourished you in 2010.
  
• To complete 2010, write out why you chose the challenging experiences of the last year. Do this from the highest perspective so that you can find their gifts.
  
• Notice if you're carrying any dark, small or limiting thoughts into 2011. Write them all down. Affirm you don't need them anymore. They're not the truth. They're just thoughts. Then rip them up into 100 shredded little specks of nothing and throw them in the trash.
  
• Choose one quality (e.g., love, peace, success, respect, etc.) that you most want to express and commit to in 2011. Write out 5 ways that you can give and share this quality with others.

My New Year's Gift to You

The Essence of Today's Children + Dr.Doreen Virtue

The transformation of this world, complete with the destruction of the old and negative, and it's replacement with higher values, comes a new breed of kids.  They are quite amazing!  Of course, the child whose qualities parents and teachers use the old cookie cutter, miss out almost completely on their Human Design.

The term Indigo is often rebelled against...as a label.  I have come to agree, especially at the behest of my daughter. But I suppose it is like any other "jargon" in that we can connect with the reality of these children with that label.  At the same time, most all children...are born this way.  They are truth seeker...with high intuition coupled with an innate ability to detect dishonesty.  There are many other qualities which, frankly, we see in almost every child we meet if we have the interest and devotion to be curious.

One question I always used to ask of any child in sessions was, "What is it that you have come to teach me today?"  This question startled the child initially...that any adult would ask them this question.  I would then explain that, if they wished, they could think about it until the next session.  Inevitably, when the child became aware that this was indeed an authentic question, their answers seemed worth waiting for, even if it took a while.  Almost always, I felt gratitude and astonishment at their answers.  Many who might have been described as "concrete thinkers" by schoolteachers who, themselves, were concrete and linear, clearly were capable of deeper and more reflective abstract thinking.  It is the understanding of their nature, understanding of the evolutionary phase, and affirming of the child's essence which creates the environment for these children to grow maximally.

In my experience, I don't see a lot of difference between the parenting skills of an "Indigo", and the parents of a (allegedly) "regular" kid.  However, it is understanding the child and its advanced abilities new to this generation, that is key. Inevitably, in working with a child, it becomes quite apparent that at least one parent is the same, whether or not they are ready to embrace and value that.

This is a video by Dr. Doreen Virtue, a leader in researching and writing about this subject.

The National Network to End Domestic Violence

The National Network to End Domestic Violence Partners with Dr. Phil

The National Network to End Domestic Violence

Partners with Dr. Phil

Washington, D.C. – The National Network to End Domestic Violence (NNEDV) has announced a partnership with popular Daytime Syndicated Talk Show Host and New York Times Bestselling author, Dr. Phil McGraw.

On his ninth season premiere this past September, Dr Phil announced a campaign to “End the Silence on Domestic Violence,” and on Wednesday, November 10, Dr. Phil will be a special guest via satellite at NNEDV’s annual Community Engagement Day in Charleston, S.C. 

“We could not be happier to be working with Dr. Phil,” said Sue Else, NNEDV’s president. “We are very grateful that Dr. Phil is using his powerful voice to raise awareness of domestic violence and help survivors of abuse.  Domestic violence needs to come out of private homes and into the national spotlight. Dr. Phil is an incredibly important part of ending domestic violence once and for all.”

Since its debut in September 2002, the series has been ranked second among all daytime talk shows and consistently ranks among the Top Ten of all syndicated strips (Source: NSS Ranking Report).

“I urge everyone to take a stand and end the silence on domestic violence,” said Dr. Phil McGraw. “I am deeply passionate about drawing attention to this silent epidemic and I remain committed to doing everything possible to help those in need of assistance. That’s why I’m proud to work with the National Network to End Domestic Violence.”

In addition to collaborating on multiple episodes of his shows, Dr. Phil will lend his voice of support on Capitol Hill when it comes to finally passing federal legislation that serves survivors of domestic violence and holds perpetrators accountable. 

On a recent episode, Dr. Phil presented a $15,000 check made up of funds donated by viewers (as a result of his call to action) along with the Dr. Phil Foundation, to the Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Coalition in Grass Valley, California. In large part due to the economy, this local domestic violence program was forced to close its doors.  The contribution made will re-open the program.

Year in Crazy: The Top 10

http://www.salon.com/life/this_week_in_crazy/index.html

Only TEN?!  I wondered.  I really enjoy Salon magazine for their journalism, their creativity and, for the most part , their accuracy. So, in the middle of a wonderful snowstorm which affords me more leisure time, I went with my requisite cup of  coffee, to the Salon  site.


The front page has an article, "Year in Crazy:  The Top Ten".  Before I clicked, I paused to think what my top ten crazees were this past year.  When I went to the slideshow, I confess Salon did a bang-up job!  I did not include any on their list.  Yet, were I to add another 10...easy, cheesy!


In short, I suppose we can all agree that the last year has ramped up in the number and nature of head-shaking events! There is certainly the clearer vision of who the "bad guys" are, in terms of preserving our earth and its people, and those who reflect integrity in their actions as well as in their rhetoric, and simply being "decent" human beings.  That vision, facilitated by information speed, has (thank heavens!) alerted us to some truly good folks and really decent impulses.


One problem is "sheople".  So many are, or choose to remain, sheople.  It is so clear when speaking with them, that their responses are parroted, emotional, shallow, and their facts are simply unchecked.  Their own assumtions are, "Make It Up AS You Go Along:  UNPLUGGED!" 


They are the ideal target of the yellow journalism media.  There is not even an attempt on their part to "balance", to use critical thinking skills......very frustrating.  But, what a wonderful event to speak with those who have done their homework....who simply "get it".  Truth be known, there are legitimate reasons for some.....those working triple jobs in this fragile economy which continues to support the elimination of the middle class; those who are the primary caretaker for several young children, etc. Their extra time, which for them is an oxymoron, is spent in simple survival mode. I do , however, wish at times that they, knowing this would be more ready to admit the fact that they don't know enough about an issue.


I know folks who watch only one of the partisan shows, rather than another contrary to their own opinion.  Thus their impoverished views. The U.S. is a knee-jerk reaction nation, for the most part.  Their entire view of policy, events, is driven by an isolated headline which is generally unrelated to the body of the article!  So, we are suckers of the highest rating!


The year 2011 is poised for things which will utterly astound us.  Perhaps we can be better with mentally filing some of this information, "For Future Reference", and acquiring a refined tolerance for ambiguity.

SOLDIER'S ANGELS

Dear Friends and Family:

Last month, I seemed to cross paths in a synchronistic way, with some soldiers about to deploy, some veterans, a few families whose loved one was in Afghanistan, a wounded vet....it kept happening more than usual.  In a moving conversation with a soldier ready to be deployed, and his family, his wife made me aware of the organization, Soldier's Angels. 

I was intrigued by the breadth and depth of this non-profit with hundreds of thousands of volunteers ...to fully describe their work, options for volunteers, and the need for community organizers.  This soldier's wife was so enthusiastic about this organization and the profusion of ways to provide support for a soldier. She offered to get together with me after her husband's deployment to fully explain the nature of those who might wish to support this mission in their own community.   

Soldier's Angels has a mantra:  "May No Soldier Go Unloved".

If you have already begun to think, "Where would I fit that time in my busy schedule?", or "How much do I have to spend on this?"..........STOP!......REWIND!......THINK!

I say this because there are so many ways in which you can support a soldier ....from Letter Writing Teams.....to adopting a soldier.....and on and on.  Soldier's Angels has really streamlined their mission.  If you were to make a commitment to adopt a soldier, the financial commitment could be as low as $9.50 per month, the cost of a one-hour telephone calling card so that the soldier can have communication with his / her family and friends back home.

For a commitment which costs nothing, you can write a soldier a letter once a week.....a different soldier each week.  Folks, let's be honest....you can almost use the same letter each week! And if five minutes a week is too much for you to give to our soldiers, then there are many options which could take even less time.

THIS HAS NO POLITICALLY PARTISAN FLAVOR!  NO MATTER WHAT YOU BELIEVE ABOUT THE WAR, THE FACT IS THAT MANY OF OUR MEN AND WOMEN ARE ON FRONT LINES, PUTTING THEIR LIVES AT RISK SO THAT YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO CONTINUE DAILY LIFE!  

WE EACH HAVE 10,080 MINUTES EACH  WEEK.  CAN YOU SPARE AT LEAST FIVE......YES!  only 5 ...... OF THEM FOR A SOLDIER IN HARM'S WAY...OR A SOLDIER WHO HAS BEEN SEVERELY WOUNDED....OR THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS, MISSING THEM SO MUCH?

PLEASE CHECK OUT THIS LINK, and help in SOME way:

Blue Print For Freedom by Raymon Grace Part I

In October, I went to a weekend conference facilitated by Raymon Grace.  I have yet to process all that I learned.  The facets of Raymon, and his work on this earth are so many that it is difficult to know where to begin.  He is one of the most genuine, logical, reverent and humble people I have ever met.  With only that, he is a most unusual individual.  In using a seasonal metaphor and as I blog about the facets of this human diamond, the lessons I learned from him "dance through my head like sugar plums".  Usually I am not at a loss for words (!), but this process has been simmering for weeks!  Where in the world to begin?  Well, as Nike says, "Just do it!"

First, I was drawn to Raymon's missions on this earth ....many right there.  So, I am going to begin with his work with human trafficking...a subject and area which I was an advocate for a few years.  Trafficking is alive and well in my hometown, and as time went along, I became witness to two occasions with young women who were abducted for this purpose.  One used her criminal savvy wonderfully to bring in law enforcement...that had a joyous ending.  The other young woman...we pray often for her. She was never heard from again.

Beyond that, Raymon has embraced a mission which is committed to each and every person on this planet having clean drinking water.  As I go along, because there is much to tell of his work, I will try to let Raymon himself tell the story, from his own videos.

I am going to paste some words from Raymon's own site about this missions.  The video, one of several, will begin his own discussion about his beliefs:

The Raymon Grace Foundation

The Raymon Grace Foundation is a 501 (c) private foundation created to further the work of Raymon Grace.

The Foundation primarily focuses on projects that concern clean water, and clearing energy for people and places that promote health and spiritual well being. The Foundation will also consider other projects that are beneficial to our environment and humanity.

Foundation founder Raymon Grace, a native of Southwest Virginia, has studied various forms of healing for more than 30 years with teachers such as Rolling Thunder, a Cherokee medicine man and Chief Two Trees, Cherokee chief and healer.

Raymon explains the Foundation’s focus by saying,"Each day there are more and more people using and polluting water, resulting in less drinkable water . This is a trend that cannot continue if our descendants are to survive. We must stop this trend.”

Coping with Isolation In An Emotionally Abusive Relationship

Isolation is the number #1 tool of emotional abuse, withholding is the #2 tool.

This is where it all begins...and most women (because they are the primary gender abused for many reasons) never see it coming, yet everyone around them is capable of seeing it.  Well...almost everyone. That depends on where on the continuum the emotional abuse is.  I.E., if "the people all around them" have already been weaned down by the controlling spouse. The very objective in this lenghty, subtle, passive-aggressive process is to assure that the victim doesn't notice it. 


This in itself is not terribly difficult especially if the wife is not working...her perspective becomes narrowed down to child-care and housekeeping. The isolation  is also implemented by moving to an area which, due to its own culture, is not challenging to the woman. The abusive spouse will do anything to keep her "out of the mix" of spiritually and intellectually stimulating people.  Generally, the abusive spouse will do much to avoid further education of his partner, because of his own insecurities. The real truth is that the man is generally terrified to have his partner become "all that she can be", since his own confidence is low.  Often, the abusive spouse "looks" different than he really is.  On the surface, he may be charming, well-employed, have monied family, but he really wants the "trophy" wife and children, so that they can proclaim his "identified value" to the circle of people he creates...again no one who ever challenges him is included in his circle...where his impoverishment is not so obvious.


As an example, I know a woman, who after a years-long grooming by the husband, was not allowed to go to her  brother's wedding in another state, 'because we don't have any money for things like that".  The knowledge that the husband had over two million dollars in assets failed to register in her brain...and to connect with how very little a plane ticket or gas would have been so that she could attend. Years later, she was outraged...mostly at herself...when she finally "connected".  Then, she could say what she would have done in that moment, should the same event occur again. For many years she was sad about thtIt all begins, of course, with a power/control structure, mostly noticed by seeing otherwise strong, bright and capable women becoming depressed and anxious, more controlling themselves, perhaps drinking more, and trying harder and harder each day to be the perfect, trophy wife...the perfect mother.

How to Recognize and Cope with the Isolation in an Abusive Relationship

Isolation is one of the mechanisms used to create and maintain domination of one person over another.

Evolution of Isolation in Abusive Relationships

It often evolves so gradually that you don’t realize it’s happening until you wake-up one day and notice you have few friends of your own, and your contact with your own family has vanished. Now the funny thing is that as your icy isolation is being groomed, you’re conditioned to believe that it is “good for you.” (There’s that conditioning, again.)

You’re told things like this person is not worthy of your company, that person is undesirable to your partner, another poses a threat to your relationship. People who may have different views than your partner, especially one which are healthier than his, are targeted by the spouse for "long-term removal". The most welcome in your life, as determined by the emotionally abusing spouse, are those which do not encourage your growth, and those who do not challenge you for your highest good.  The abuser does not want you to grow mentally and emotionally, because that threatens his own impoverished ego. To him, there are as many reasons for you not to have people in your life, other than your partner, as there were people in you life, before the abusive relationship.


Another insidious strategy from the abusive spouse regards the parents and family of both partners...only the parents who represent the same dysfunction as in himself, are welcomed into his family.  Any parent who represents challenge for a higher good, independence, individuation, etc., will, over time be sorted "out of the mix".

And when you internalize your partner’s perception of his/her preferences with respect to the people being walled out of your life, you are rewarded by the partner. Sometimes this reward maybe in the form of a positive gesture by him. Or, it may present as the absence of a previously negative spill of verbal emotional abuse when you failed to comply with the walling off of this particular person.

How This Isolation Serves Your Partner.

There are several ways in which your isolation serves your partner and helps maintain the abuse in your relationship.

a) Your isolation creates a relationship climate of dependence, as there are no other adults in your personal orbit other than your partner.
b) Your isolation creates an exterior shield of silence regarding the abuse in your home.
c) Your isolation serves to silence you from yourself with respect to your abusive relationship.

What You Can Do to Overcome Icy Isolation in an Abusive Relationship.

If you are in an abusive relationship, the “other” people falling out of your personal orbit may very well be your first tip-off that something is not right at home. When you notice yourself participating in the narrowing of your personal social or family circle, take a hard and honest look at all of the defining characteristics of abusive relationships.

If your relationship has progressed and you see yourself in many ways “stuck” or merely trying to work things out with your partner, make a personal commitment to yourself to always keep open at least one channel of contact with someone near and dear, even if you have to do so secretly. This person could be your lifeline in a time of need.

"The Changing Times" by Stephen Hairfield, PhD

Following a lengthy trip to Israel in 1999, my already eclectic spiritual belief system was both deeply jarred...and enhanced.  The notion of energy and quantum physics has expanded my world view exponentially.  I will write more on this as the holiday season evolves...I am still integrating the learning in this year.  A wonderful whirl of great fortune allowed me to attend the seminar / advanced workshop of Raymon Grace...whose work in nearly 60 countries is quite astounding.  I was both astounded and moved by his earthiness, his authenticity, and his humility. (To say nothing of his successful  outcomes!) I will blog on Raymon later. (Until then, his website links are on the left column of this page.)

The principles of how life accumulates by one drop at a time until we overflow. The ancients have warned us since the beginning of time on which is the best path of life. We have mistaken ancient metaphor and allegory, overlooking symbolism, and have walked a path of material form. We have forgotten our first Love. • Ancient Prophesies • The idea of the “Holy Trinity” • The Seven Temptations • The Seven Virtues • The Seven Chakras or Churches • Energies at Work in the Chakras • Balancing the Forces • Illusion of Duality • Creating Oneness
