newlightperspectives:

As a child the young mind is exposed to a multitude of thoughts, ideas, sounds, images and so on. Here are some sayings that I wish to bring to attention: God hears the thoughts of everyone in the world. God knows your true feelings and is concerned with these feelings and not just your actions….

Awesome insight and definitely worth a few minutes of your time!

Here are some of my favorite pre workout and post workout snacks.

Pre Workout

sliceof whole wheat bread with one tbsp of natural peanut butter and half a sliced banana

small fruit salad with a dozen almonds

Luna bars (various flavors, but chocolate smore is my all time favorite!)

Post Workout

chocolate protein shake (I keep a container of whey protein powder in my locker at the gym, so I usually just add water to it, but if I’m at home I can get creative)

low fat or fat free greek yogurt

cottage cheese with cut up strawberries

veggies + hummus (usually combined with a little turkey meat on the side for extra protein)

YUM YUM YUM.

Diet is just as important as exercise #trainsmart

beben-eleben:

There once was a young boy with a very bad temper. The boy’s father wanted to teach him a lesson, so he gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper he must hammer a nail into their wooden fence.

On the first day of this lesson, the little boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. He was really mad!

Over the course of the next few weeks, the little boy began to control his temper, so the number of nails that were hammered into the fence dramatically decreased.

It wasn’t long before the little boy discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.

Then, the day finally came when the little boy didn’t lose his temper even once, and he became so proud of himself, he couldn’t wait to tell his father.

Pleased, his father suggested that he now pull out one nail for each day that he could hold his temper.

Several weeks went by and the day finally came when the young boy was able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.

Very gently, the father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.

“You have done very well, my son,” he smiled, “but look at the holes in the fence. The fence will never be the same.”

The little boy listened carefully as his father continued to speak.

“When you say things in anger, they leave permanent scars just like these. And no matter how many times you say you’re sorry, the wounds will still be there.”

Some Brain Facts

Sun, 12 May 2013 12:19:23 -0400

psych-facts:

onlinecounsellingcollege:

1. The brain feels similar to tofu, and contains enough fluid to fill a 1.5-2 litre soda bottle.

2. Archaeological evidence suggests that human brains may have shrunk over time. However, there is nothing to show that humans are less intelligent today compared to previous times.

3. The brain alone consumes about 20% of the oxygen in our blood, and 25% of the glucose. Thus it is a major energy consumer.

4. The human brain has more pronounced wrinkles than the brains of other species. This is linked to more sophisticated neural pathways and higher intellectual functioning.

“Thoughts will inevitably drift in and dance around your mind, but that’s normal. Don’t try to do anything with them - let them be. If you find yourself thinking about what’s passing through your mind, just return to focusing your awareness on the mantra of your breath - you will soon slip into the space between thoughts.”

- Deepak Chopra (via thankyoga)
