Honey

I was so happy to read this article today!

I always thought that honey was better for you than refined sugar, but I was told that honey is sugar and sugar is bad for your health!

So now I feel better. And nexzt time I have a craving, I'm going to try a spoonful of honey. I think as long as I use a reasonable sized spoon I'll be okay.

The type of sweetener you use in your oatmeal and coffee could have quite an impact on your ability to trim down.

According to new research, you should grab the honey pot, not the sugar bowl. In a study, the effects that honey had on appetite hormones and blood sugar control were more favorable than those of table sugar. Which means choosing honey could help prevent weight gain.

And honey has antioxidants, too!

Studying with Hypnosis

Now is the time for all good students to STUDY!

Final exams are just around the corner, if not here already.

Many students stay up all night cramming. But there are other ways to pass exams.

Good study habits can be used all during the year, as classes seem to accumulate more and more information as time goes on. It's easier to absorb information in smaller pieces. Repetition always assists learning and if you do not access the information for a long time, it may be lost, so reviewing the information frequently helps it stay with you. That means it has gone into long-term memory, the storage banks, not just short term memory, like cramming.

Also, if you stay up all night before a test, there is the added worry that you might fall asleep duringthe exam.

Hypnosis helps you relax. It is the best thing to do just before the exam.

Of course, we all know that you need a good night's sleep and a decent breakfast before the test.

Hypno-birthing

It was on TV last night, on the news. We actually saw Heather Van Nest during labor. She thought she would give hypnosis a try after seeing several women on a video going through labor without pain!

Heather did not use any pain medication during labor. She said there was a little discomfort towards the very end of labor, but for her, it was "tolerable."

I am always amazed at how many wonderful things can be accomplished with hypnosis!

Tarpon Springs Easter Dynamite

I guess I am the first to report the events of last night, April 23, 2011, in Tarpon Springs Florida.

Easter is the biggest holiday for the Greek Orthodox Church. In order to begin celebrating at midnight on Easter morning, the Greek Orthodox gather at 11:00 pm on Saturday night. They start early in Tarpon Springs, as St. Nicholas Church must only hold about 500 people and they attract a crowd much larger than that. So if you want to get a seat in the glorious church, you must arrive before 10:00pm.

The faithful who arrived early and were admitted to the church, were evacuated at about 9:15 pm because the police had to search the building and the area. The rumors say that a bomb or some dynamite had been discovered. Everyone inside had to evacuate. No members were allowed to enter the church. The street was blocked off to all but police and police vehicles.

Police dogs searched the area.

Noone was allowed into the church until 11:20.

The service was abbreviated and much more quiet than usual. Nevertheless, shortly after midnight, candles were lit and the faithful exchanged greetings, as well as hugs and kisses.

KALO PASCHA!

Hotmail Hijacked Again

I opened my email this morning. Wow! 100 messages! I usually don't have that many unread messages... Oh, no! A bunch of undeliverables by Postmaster. About 25 of them. So I look at a few of them and discover that "g_constantas" sent everyone on my list a link to some unknown website. If you got one of these, I am very sorry. I did not send it. My husband got one and he was angry that I sent him a link to a site where he can buy Viagra. He didn't believe me when I said it wasn't me! It says right here, from Gloria Constantas!

But this has happened to me before and I have gotten other similar messages from people I know on hotmail. They only come from hotmail. So I tried to contact hotmail support. I can't send a question. I don't know if it is only my computer with that problem. Hotmail Q&A says that I must've given my password to some unauthorized site. I'm sure I didn't. But I really wish this didn't happen. I was just about to send out my newsletter. Right now I think there are several people who don't want to hear from me. Anyway, the spammer exceeded my limit, so I can't send any messages right now. I am just hoping that there are no more messages from the spammer hanging out in virtual space, that will be activated when the limit is resent tomorrow at 10:13am.

It's weird, they also deleted my "Sent" folder. I changed my password and security question a few times. They deleted all the sent messages from 2010 and 2011. I wonder why?

Financial IQ

I have just completed 2 books by Robert Kiyosaki. The ones I have read are Increase Your Financial IQ and Guide to Becoming Rich. I have also read Rich Dad, Poor Dad, which is probably his first and most famous book.

I am very impressed with his chapter on Developing your Financial Genius in Increase your Financial IQ. In it, there is a section about how words inluence our thinking and our behavior. This man grew up in Hawaii. Maybe the differences are more pronounced there, but he states that the rich and the poor speak different dialects. He says the dialect of the poor and middle-class limit the money-making potential of the speakers! He backs this up with science, citing that the mirror neurons in the brain are responsible for this phenomenon. The mirror neurons are the learning parts of the brain and they tend to mirror or reproduce what is in their environment. So if you want to be rich, you have to surround yourself with nice things, and immerse yourself in the language of the wealthy people -- The words, thoughts, and actions of the Rich!

How's that for verbal impact?! I find the scientific evidence for my theory in a book about personal finance. That isn't what I was looking for.

This book also contains a lot about personal and business budgets, net-worth, and the economy. It is very helpful for anyone who deals with money, anyone who buys things, or sells things, anyone who wants money, in short, every one! I recommend it highly.
