Managing conflict

"We can have hope and we can believe, and most importantly, we can start over this holiday season." - Dr. John Gottman Every year the holidays are designed to r...emind us that we can have hope and believe again and most importantly that we can personally start over. We can hope that, at last, we can hit the Big Reset Button. But sometimes fear gets in the way. We are afraid that the season will turn around and that the Big Reset Button will itself turn out to be an illusion, that the miracle of hope was just a big story someone made up. Our fears shut down hope. And that Big Reset Button disappears in the fog. So what can be done? Try these activities recommended by Dr. John Gottman to help you turn away from fear and towards hope: http://bit.ly/2K7rCoa

All melons have incredible healing properties, including watermelon. Limes are also a star ingredient in this recipe. Discover some of the healing benefits of these special foods below. Melons: A powerful liver- cleansing food because of melons ability to hydrate blood all on its own and help alleviate your livers overburdened state. The combination of melons unique living water content with its nutrient content allows the heart to work less; melons thin out dirty, toxic, fat-filled blood, allowing the heart to not overwork itself in pumping blood. This reduces some of the livers responsibility to protect the heart, which frees up the liver to focus on other important chemical functions that are needed in the moment. Melons also provide the liver with hydration to hold on to for when youre in a drought, living a lifestyle of chronic dehydration. They flush toxins out of the intestinal tract with ease and rebuild hydrochloric acid reserves in the stomach. And because bile is not needed to break down and digest melon, the liver can work on restoring its bile tank. Lemons and limes: Improve hydrochloric acid production as well as bile production and potency. Contain micro mineral salts that break down pathogens such as unproductive bacteria, mold, yeast, and fungus to help protect your livers immune system. The rich calcium levels in lemons and limes binds to the vitamin C within them, and both of these enter into the liver, where they waken a stagnant, sluggish, fatty liver, helping loosen and disperse fat cells. Lemons and limes clean up dirty blood syndrome, improve glucose absorption, and even protect the pancreas. Watermelon Fries Ingredients: 1 small watermelon, cut into fries Zest from 1 lime 1 tablespoon lime juice 1/2 to 1 teaspoon chili powder Directions: Arrange the watermelon fries on a plate or platter. Add the lime zest, juice, and chili powder. Serve immediately Find over 75 more delicious, healing recipes in Medical Medium Cleanse to Heal for you and your family https://amzn.to/38mezp6
