Il y a déjà 24536 photos collectées et il reste 975.464 photos à faire. Pour participer vous pouvez aller sur Facebook où ce trouve le groupe: “Please donate your photo for “Faces of Millions” project” ou sur le site web Faces of Millions.

Every Day should be Peace Day

Sonia — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 08:55:11 +0000

September 21 was Peace Day, sorry I missed out on that one I guess I was busy thinking about 7 years ago when the AZF factory (Toulouse) exploded in our faces, and therefor not having very peaceful thoughts. I want to make up for that because inner peace is important for world peace as we can see in this video.

here’s to Inner Peace every day!

Apparemment il y avait le 21 septembre Peace Day ou Journée de la Paix. Donc je vous préviens trop tard mais ce message n’est pas si tard si on en prend conscience dès maintenant!

The Other Energy Saving

Sonia — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:23:06 +0000

For once we’re not talking the subtle energy (Qi, Ki, Prana…) that flows trough our body but the energy that comes out of your power sockets, kindly supplied by your electricity provider.

I just got a mail about www.ecogle.fr. It’s an attempt to save energy because they say that if Google had a black background instead of white it would save up to 750 megawatt-hours a year (26 turbines of the Three Gorges Dam in China). White pixels use more energy then black they say. It’s an idea, should be worth a try. I tested the search and it works fine, the black screen takes some getting use to.

Will I do a make-over on the EFT-Performance? Not likely, I really have a problem with black screens and reading from them. But maybe it’s just one of those pesky limiting beliefs!

I heard recently that doing one search query takes up as much energy as burning 1 economic light bulb for an hour. And internet traffic causes more CO2 emission than international flight traffic in a year! And I thought I was working in an ecologically-correct business (: I suggest to do small things like putting to sleep our computer when not in use for a moment and shutting it down completely for the night (also the screens no longer on “stand by”) A thing that also helps is all the hifi-television equipment on a power interrupter and cutting off the power at night so nothing has a little stand-by light burning.

happy energy saving!

Mind-Body connection

Sonia — Thu, 25 Oct 2007 10:48:54 +0000

While I was sort of getting organized within my mailbox (okay I admit, I haven’t been good at de-cluttering these days but it’s more a choice than overwhelm!) I saw this interesting clip:
“… Research in psychiatrically ill children and adolescents suggests that those with depression, anxiety and other so-called “internalizing” disorders are more likely to have allergies…”

Internalizing disorders (fears, worrying, shyness…) develop when instead of taking emotions out on others, the feelings get internalized.

Yet another clue on how the mind-body connection works in the light of hard-science and here we have a starting point to do EFT on, or how to get to the deeper layers. Although EFT won’t harm, always seek advice of a professional healthcare practitioner if you suspect serious (mental) health problems.

Getting organised and change

Sonia — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 10:31:08 +0000

I put my de-clutter efforts on hold. That’s a conscious choice and had nothing to do that the EFT tapping has no effect on me. The choice came by reading the introduction of a book about getting organised “Organizing from the Inside Out”. The writer, Julie Morgenstern made clear that “Being organized has less to do with the way an environment looks like than how efficiently it functions”. And the other important point she makes is: “Organizing is the process by which we create environments that enable us to live, work and relax exactly as we want to”.
That takes the edge of wanting to push this de-clutter process and getting perfectionist about it. I’m looking forward reading this book because Julie Morgenstern was not born as a perfect organised person she has learned to become one.
This gives me hope and a smooth transition to the next book I look forward to read.
Hope is according to Alan Deutchman the first key for change. In this Fastcompany article he introduced the reader to his book Change or Die: The Three keys to Change at work and in Life.

With fascinating stories about remarkable changes and researching the psychology of change.
Fear of death and brutal force doesn’t work. What works are the 3 keys to Change:
Relate - New Hope: You form a new, emotional relationship with a person or community that inspires and sustains hope.
Repeat- New Skills: The new relationship helps you learn, practice, and master the new habits and skills that you’ll need.
Reframe- New Thinking: The new relationship helps you learn new ways of thinking about your situation and your life.
Sounds simple but apparently it isn’t.
I think that one can fit elegantly EFT into this change. One could work on certain issues and hang-ups that seem to block change. EFT can make the process of relating-repeating and reframing easier and faster.
Whatever the change is you want to make in your life, with the information and inspiration of the book combined with EFT, lasting change becomes attainable for everybody!
