"He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has." Epictetus 1st Century AD.


Hello Hopeologists!

Thanksgiving is one of our favorite holidays. It isn’t about gifts or candy, there’s less rush and, although one could argue that there is a gluttony factor, mostly it is about being with people you love. That is great, but what sometimes gets lost in the mix is exactly what the holiday is called: Thanksgiving.

Really, Thanksgiving should be every day of our lives, as many moments as we can string together. As we cultivate the habit of gratitude our focus shifts from all that we may perceive as wrong to what is actually right – and there is so much! We tend to sleep-walk through life, not truly experiencing the beauty and blessings all around us.

There is a company called “Heart Math” and they have measured the electro-magnetic emission from that big electro-magnet called “our heart”. When we are being grateful and appreciative and feeling love, our heart emits a wave that measures 0.10 hertz, or 1 cycle per second. This electro-magnetic wave interacts with our brain and therefore, with all of our physical functions. “The consistent and pervasive influence of the heart’s rhythmic patterns on the brain and body not only affects our physical health, but also significantly influences perceptual processing, emotional experience, and intentional behavior." Our whole vibration shifts when we are in a state of appreciation and thankfulness. Feel how good you feel when you are in this state ! Check out this interesting paper called, The Coherent Heart. www.heartmath.se/img/the_coherent_heart.pdf

I’ve heard gratitude called the “great multiplier”. The more thankful we are, the more we have to be thankful for. It just happens! The Pilgrims knew what they were doing. Have a beautiful holiday!

*We have a wonderful new friend. Her name is Jill Hendricks and she writes a beautiful blog called “Restore 44”. www.restore44.blogspot.com. Jill is 44 and has taken a year off to heal from an auto-immune disease and other physical issues. She came to a Hopeology workshop in early October and has just taken flight using as much of Hopeology as she can apply. She writes about how she is healing, figuring out the spiritual, emotional, mental issues that have contributed to the dis-ease in her body. It is fascinating to see the similarities with Anne’s recovery. Jill is awakening out of disease and sharing her beautiful insights as she does. Reading Restore 44 is like watching a miracle unfold.
