The Mentor Archetype

I have a cold and I'm annoyed. Not only me, but about half the people I know seem to have colds or flu right now. It's accepted that we have a cold in the winter, but it's almost summer, for cryin' out loud.

What are we doing or not doing that allowed us to catch a virus?

I decided to ask the Archetypes. I spread the cards out face down and selected a card. I chose The Mentor.

After getting settled with pen and paper, I then asked the question, "How can we best take care of ourselves in these stressful times?"

Following is the wisdom The Mentor shared:

For each it will be different, but there are some generalities that suit all.

First and most important, take care of your physical body. When you're sick or low on energy everything becomes overwhelming. The simplest of acts becomes more than you have energy for. Remember how you feel when you're ill? How even getting out of bed to get yourself a glass of water becomes a monumental chore? If you're sick, run down, or exhausted you won't have the energy to deal with the challenges coming at you in these times.

"How do we best take care of our body?" I then asked.

Of course, drink water. Make it purified water so that you aren't adding to that which exhausts the body - toxins and the removal of them. The point of drinking water is to aid in the detoxification of the body. Drinking tap water with its load of chemicals sabotages this purpose.

Eat less commercially prepared food. If you want to know why, read the ingredients.

Rest when you're tired. Even a few minutes of just sitting and meditating or daydreaming will revitalize you and your body.

Exercise is important to keep the body healthy because it stirs up all the processes that bring nutrients to the cells and those that remove toxins. Visualize a pond of still water. On the surface it may look beautiful, but underneath there's sludge and muck built up. The same is true of your body. Keep the rivers of blood and lymph moving or the sludge of toxins and plaque build up.

There you have it. Simple, practical advice from The Mentor that's easy for anyone to implement in their life in order to fortify themselves for these challenging times.

Love,
Kathy

Essential Oil of the Month

Peace & Calming

Just what you need during these stressful times! Peace & Calming® is a gentle, fragrant blend that reduces depression, anxiety, stress, and insomnia.

When diffused, it helps calm tensions and uplifts the spirit, promoting relaxation and a deep sense of peace.

Peace & Calming® may be especially calming and comforting to young children after an overactive and stressful day. It can also be used to calm nervousness in animals.

Oils included in this blend are:

• Blue Tansy - combats anger and negative emotions
• Patchouli - strongly grounding and centering, establishes mental and emotional equilibrium
• Tangerine - sedating and calming, helping with anxiety and nervousness
• Orange - elevating to the mind, combats depression, and brings about a sense of security
• Ylang Ylang - increases relaxation, restores confidence and equilibrium

Suggestions of how to use it:

• Diffuse it in your home or office.
• Put 2-3 drops on your pillow or bedding for a sound sleep.
• Apply it to wrists, neck, chest, and under nose.
• Dilute 1:15 with vegetable oil for body massage oil.
• Put 4-8 drops on a cotton ball and locate on heating vents.
• Use in Raindrop Therapy

Remember, Young Living Essential Oils are 100% pure, therapeutic grade, organic essential oils. They have nothing added to them that dilutes their potency or their purity. They cost a bit more and they're worth it. They're not only more effective, they last longer because you don't need to use but a drop or two.

AstroArchetypes is a new coaching tool which makes it easy and fun to get the information you need to make better choices. It combines three powerful components:

• the coaching wheel - a tool for identifying your levels of satisfaction in different areas of your life the houses of
• astrology - an ancient "map" of the twelve most important parts of your life
• archetypes - the different roles or personas you adopt according to differing situations and the people involved

These components by themselves are extremely effective. Combined, they're amazingly powerful in getting the information needed about any issue, situation, or relationship so you can move through fear and begin making forward progress.
