Sometimes

criebo — Thu, 03 May 2012 04:13:32 +0000

Sometimes the answer is right in front of our faces, right in our hearts and intuition, signs occur at every moment of everyday, we just have to be open and aware, realize that not all miracles come in the form of splitting oceans, many of the blessing and messages from our angels and guides are subtle, passive, and require clear thinking to receive and understand, most of the time we disregard them because of all the clutter that’s in our minds, we must cast our worries into the universes hand, focus more on feeling the situation clearly, then we will begin to see, just how often we are guided and helped to make the right decisions. There are signs everywhere. ~Will Rivera

Cancer Control through Consumption – Heatlthy Foods

criebo — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 20:58:59 +0000

Cancer is a complicated sort as we all know. There are many different types of cancer, each causing different affects to the person they infect. Signs and symptoms become evident leading to an everyday, quickly altered by a severe diagnosis.
The medical world is exploring opportunities with treatment not only in effort to cure what we now know as the incurable, but to make the patient feel better. From chemotherapy, radiation to natural healing there are many ways to attack the killer. Some treatments cause the patient to feel very sick with nausea and vomiting, while others attempt to reduce additional pain caused by other treatments.
Eating certain foods is one concept used in both preventative measures and treatment that is currently being explored. A natural alternative is used consistently to improve overall wellbeing.
Feelings of sickness and pain are well associated with days of chemotherapy and radiation treatment. Loss of appetite can occur with these treatments regardless of the type of cancer. However sensory changes typically occur especially in cancers of the head and neck, where the mouth and throat are directly affected. Taste aversions or alterations of certain flavors typically take place. The sense of sweetness, salt and sour recognitions are apt to decrease. When this occurs it is advised to consume foods with additional sugar, salt and sour flavors. Bitter taste recognition increases causing some foods, specifically meat, to portray a rather bitter flavor. All taste aversions appear at different levels of individual intensity. The goal is to consume foods that maximize body’s needs and the pleasure of eating.
Favorite foods are not recommended in effort to reduce associations with treatment. Patients should be able to go back to eating favorite dishes, rather than be reminded of the treatment. Eating should be pleasurable, not painful. The goal is to consume foods to fulfill the body needs, while obtaining enjoyment in the process.
To maximize the inner ability to fight the disease there are a few concepts to keep in mind. Proper protein consumption is important for optimal health. When cancer is present there is a higher level of protein catabolism, or breakdown, specifically in skeletal muscle. The protein that enters the body in the form of food is rapidly used to repair muscles being broken down. A person with cancer typically requires more protein to be consumed because of the abnormal level of breakdown.
Fluid needs are also increased in addition to protein. The typical side affects of nausea and vomiting due to treatment can cause electrolyte imbalances and dehydration. Maintaining hydration, fluid and proper electrolyte balance becomes more important than the healthy individual. Multivitamins with mineral supplements are advised to ensure proper nutrition even at less than 100% of the DRI, or daily recommended intake because food consumption will account for a portion of the percentage.
Antioxidants are used as preventative and treatment measures in effort to fight free radicals from the body environment. Vitamins A, C, E, beta-carotene, Zinc, and Selenium can all be beneficial. It is important to consume adequate amounts of these nutrients, rather than high doses, as the cancer may benefit rather than the body if too much is available.
Here are the top food sources of the anti-oxidants:
Vitamin A
Liver of beef or chicken, fortified milk, cheese, carrots, spinach, kale, cantaloupe and apricots
Vitamin C
Guava, red and green pepper, kiwi, orange and its juice, strawberries, Brussels sprouts, cantaloupe, papaya
Vitamin E
Fortified ready to eat cereals, sunflower seeds, almonds, hazelnuts, sunflower, safflower and cottonseed oils, pine nuts, peanut butter
Beta-carotene
carrots, cantaloupe, apricots, sweet potatoes, pumpkin, winter squash, mangos, collard greens, spinach, kale, broccoli
Zinc
Oysters, beef, crab, chicken, pork, lobster, fortified cereals, cashews, yogurt, chickpeas, cheese, almonds, milk
Selenium
Brazil nuts, beef, tuna, whole wheat products, oats, egg yolks
Inclusion of these antioxidants can be beneficial in addition to adequate protein, water, vitamins and minerals the body needs. The goal in food consumption with those who have cancer is to consume adequate nutrients while inducing minimal pain and maximizing the pleasure of eating.
You and your body have to enjoy life, wherever you may be in the journey.

FINDING YOURSELF IN PSALMS

criebo — Thu, 19 Apr 2012 20:45:09 +0000

In the Psalms, we cam pray our questions and convictions. Hearing the Psalms we will see the family of faith is bigger than we imagine. There’s room, far more than most of us dream. These ancient prayers (and those who pray them) offer us space to experience our unique emotions and doubts, and room to offer our own heartfelt pleas.

To be someone else… What it would be like?

criebo — Sun, 15 Apr 2012 14:30:03 +0000

When you look at my life and all the beautiful things in it, realize that you are seeing me at my best, that every single thing in my life today I had to fight hard for, strive for, get over my own low self esteem for, had to find myself amidst the darkness, face my demons and learn to make friends with them, stand alone at times for that which I believed in, lost so many beautiful friends along the way, many times could not control my own behavior, felt sorry for myself, always gave every last ounce of energy and time to those who I loved, ultimately ended up with nothing, fighting a battle that was already lost. Living in a world of my own lies. I had to choose to make my life great, working hard on myself spiritually, which is a journey that has no concrete ending, I had forgive my past, learn to love and accept myself as I am, discover my purpose and stand firm in my beliefs and my dreams, these days nothing can sway my vision, there is no option that reads failure for me, I will go to my grave inspiring others in any way I can, helping other lost souls to help themselves; if you feel it in your heart then its worth sinking every last ounce of energy into.

So when you wish for the split second what it would be like to be someone else, make sure you are prepared to handle the whole package not just the peaceful point in life they had to go through their own hell and back to get to; remember no one every truly knows the whole story. -Will Rivera -

What is Risk ?

criebo — Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:52:01 +0000

What is risk? Most believe its is word created to make you scared, to make you think that if you try there is a good chance you will not succeed, it’s a word of mystery, to me it means new beginnings, it means going past the limitations and expectations of everyone else and creating my own reality, full of power I never dreamed I had, and talents I never new I even possessed, opening doors that go to roads never traveled before, creating a path and leaving a trail for anyone to follow, taking a chance is thrilling, it’s like unleashing a beast of positivity and endless opportunity, it takes me places you can only fantasize about, only it’s reality, it’s beauty, it’s tapping into fear and using it to fuel our journey, how far we go depends on how risky we are feeling or how many chances are we willing to take before we realize playing it safe gets us nowhere real fast. ~Will Rivera

THE BEATITUDES

criebo — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 01:06:55 +0000

In his longest recorded sermon, Jesus began by describing the traits he looks for in his followers. he called those who live out those traits fortunate because God has somthing special in store for them. The best example of each trait is found in Jesus himself. If our goal is to become like him, the beatitudes will challenge the way we live each day.

VERSE Matt 5:3-10
