The Knowing Place

Our lives are truly a gift.  Do not take them for granted, #peace #perspective #love #breathedeeplovehard

We all need perspective, particularly in times of stress, anxiety, and heartache.  When faced with losing a loved one, sometimes we have to focus on what they leave us instead of them leaving.

At some point, hopefully, we'll all grow to place where we realize just how much grace we've been given.

It's not spooky, it's part of the process. #grief #psychology #peace #love #theknowingplacepodcast

The science of health is ever evolving and we must evolve with it if we are to make informed decisions where our health is concerned.  In this information age we have access to more than enough resources that will allow us to make choices, better choices, especially with respect to our health and wellness.  This episode was inspired by a podcast by Dr. Mark Hyman(https://drhyman.com/) as he interviewed Dr. Aseem Malhotra(doctoraseem.com/biography/), a cardiologist, about emerging causes of heart disease that contradict long held beliefs.  Listen, but afterward take action!  I wish you nothing but peace, love and health. Please visit Dr. Hyman's podcast(https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-truth-behind-statins-helpful-or-harmful-with-dr/id1382804627?i=1000553344371) to hear the entire episode that inspired this synopsis.

We don't function the same while we are processing situations, circumstances, grief.  Please know that the funk, disconnect, and depression that can occur during this processing are all part of the process.

True progress comes with struggle and when love is true, it will fight you to help you.

For far too long prayer has been used as a cheap out, almost as a way to not take any action, but to offer some form of good tidings to those in need.  Prayer should be a call to action, not an easy way out of taking action. theknowingplace.net

Domestic violence and its impact is one of the many growing problems we face in our society.  A key way to help combat this problem is through advocacy, education, and ensuring that adequate resources exist to facilitate safe, effective intervention, protection, and prosecution of such violent crimes.  All too often victims go unheard, but with efforts such as this, we can continue to be a voice for the voiceless and hopefully and lighthouse in otherwise dark waters.  #domesticviolence Get help now!   This website is a great place to get connected with various resources immediately https://ncadv.org/resources

Violence is an ever-present plague in America and around the world and domestic violence is part of this disease.  We must advocate for victims and survivors and bring light to this problem in order to one day bring an end to the sickness.   Be sure to join me for episode 8 coming soon where we will tackle this issue. #domesticviolence #enoughisenough #protect #advocate #peace #love

There are some dynamics of the parent/child relationship that must be understood that may help ensure a healthy outcome for everyone.  The goal of the parent should be to help create a productive, healthy adult; the role of the child is to be a child and not waste away their youth in an attempt to rush into adulthood.  Le't's touch on each perspective for a bit.  #parenting #kids #family Support: paypal.me/chuck5470  or  teespring.com/stores/the-knowing-place-2  or www.audibletrial.com/theknowingplace

Why do we think the way we do about people who we see as different?  How can we chip away at the stumbling block of race, bigotry and prejudice and work towards bettering ourselves, our communities, our nation, the world?    Podcorn:  podcorn.com

Just a few thoughts

Just felt compelled to remind you.

This episode is the deeper continuation of Episode 1:  More Than A Flower and gives insight in to how grief can sometimes be lifted in an instant.  Sometimes it's a dream, a kind gesture, or a divine appointment, but just know that there is relief and you will find it, just persevere.   Your donations are greatly appreciated and you can also support with some The Knowing Place apparel which can be found at: teespring.com/stores/the-knowing-place-2 Peace and blessings!

Triumph, tragedy, and the perspective needed to overcome.

Nothing liberates the spirit like honest, transparent, discussion.  It helps us move past the issues of life and allows us to blossom just as we're supposed to. GZZjankDLUOBfJdmhGPZ
