2025 "CAT'S PAW INN"

~  Making Memories  ~

As the seasons change, lives change and new lives are formed.

Year after year..

life is never the same.  We must take our memories,   carry forward to our desires and what makes us the person we want to be.

Wether it is keeping a diary, while forming our thoughts, our needs and desires on paper or a computer..

It is important to know that what we feed out brain has a large impact on our health and what  lies ahead.

Our brains are amazing and the body follows.  

Feed that 2nd brain in the gut life foods.

Feed our 1st brain all the wonderful thoughts even though they are not yet written in stone.

You are stronger than you realize.  Move with the seasons and build on the changes, with love in our hearts!

~  Life is like a bicycle. To keep your balance you must keep moving .

...Albert Einstein

A podcast from Dr. Berg talked about

"thinking too much".

In his video short, he discusses how over-thinking has an effect on our adrenals and cortisol.  

 Ive talked many times about cortisol.  it is a repairing chemical for flight or flight....but when over released it is harmful to your adipose tissue in your belly fat as well as artery clogging and fog brain.

Wether it is sadness, anger, guilt or other stressors in our daily life, we need to exercise our free agency and ability to change our negative routines.

We must get up and move physically and mentally to create change and ward off disease.

Even after the grief of a loved one, we need to create a new identity.

Long walks, art, hobbies, crafts and music  can get you "out of your head," so to speak.  It acts as a time to relax, unwind and release  unwanted thoughts.  As well as all the benefits that Nature can give us.

As a side note:

Dr Berg also warns us of cell phone emf and led which affect our pineal gland (biorhythms) and  the 

pituitary gland (master hormonal gland).

With all the stressors each day, try to get at least one hour of down time for our mental and ultimately physical health.

Remember each day is a new start, a fresh, inspiring, glorious beginning of what life, we have left in this world.

~ Moving forward ~ 

Where will you be be moving in your life?

Will it be mental, physical or spiritual?

The time is to take your life in your hands.

Days come and days go by,

they will change without us,

even if we try.

We can dream of the future

and plan ahead,

love and caring can not be led.

Open up your heart to what may be,

let your heart guide you,

to eventually see.

Indulge in fantasy as your mind runs free,

Sometimes your needs create your future to be.

If we believe that there is a perfect space in time,

It may happen without help if we keep an open mind.

So many roads to still travel down,

And on one of them happiness will be found.

Hold that perfection in your hands,

which may bring you to a new and wonderful new land.

Challenges will always be around,

but the closer you will come to life's real riches in that new town.

Riches that do not come with money,

however is worth more than gold and honey!

~ The beauty 

of the stillness ~

To take time out to view the working of nature, dispite the frozen white around us.

Breathe in the new and out with the old.

Not to move ahead but to move forward.

With smiles, memories, knowledge and power from within.

To contimplate the possibilities and make new memories.

To walk in the glory of earths renewal, in the aweness of what is possible.

this is life, that can be, that can bloom into wonder of the now and beyond.

This is free agency in the middle of the storm, the afterglow in the stillness and the melting of the ice as it forms new life.

...

~ GROUNDING ~

What is it in nature?

What does the research say?

How long have we known about it ?

Why do you need it ?

Cant we just go hug a tree?

Ok, first of all, its spring and for most of us, we are not able to plant our feet in the grass outside.

And for many, there is no grass, only snow, and cold 

dirt and rocks.

But, The energy of the earth and nature can be achieved in other ways as well.

It states that we have known about "grounding" of electrical charges , (the discharge of electrostatically charged components)...

 since the 6th century BC.

Grounding and its health benefits have existed for thousands of years 

years in traditional Chinese medicine, Aboriginal cultures, and Indigenous communities.

Also,  In the 1800s, well-known German scientists began proposing walking barefoot for health benefits and the down sides of wearing rubber soled shoes.

Its documented that rapid resolution of painful chronic inflammation was confirmed in 20 case studies using medical infrared imaging.

It has been noted that the Earth's natural electric charge stabilizes the physiology at the deepest levels, reducing inflammation, pain, and stress, improves blood flow, energy, and sleep, and generates greater well-being.

Research shows grounding increases the surface charge on red blood cells and thereby reduces blood viscosity and clumping.

Grounding can also reduce oxidative stress, which may protect against neurodegenerative diseases. By regulating cortisol levels, grounding can help improve cognitive function and memory. 

So you see, there is much said about grounding the body for health, and  it has been known about for hundreds of years.

There are grounding mats and grounding sheets as well,  esp. for the winter months.....

that plug into the grounding port of your wall socket, that travels to the outside of your house and into the ground itself.

There is so much good to be learned from this, so use this as a starting point and.... 

.....go find your newest tool 

for your 

optimal health !

~ DIS-EASE ~

As we move into Winter, one may look around and say that everything is dying off.

In reality, it is just life's seasons in which nature promotes birth.

Others may point out that it appears depressing, mentally cold and diseased, 

... as the leaves fall and gardens look dead.

In reality, there is so much activity happening with nature, animals and insects that we do not see,

... even underneath that blanket of

 rain, snow, clouds and ice.

Outside, "dis-ease" 

only appears to be against the growth of life.

But, within natures quiet stillness,  there are echos to be heard, 

... as newness is being brought forth.

Step outside to alert your senses and open your mind,

...and delight in the fresh air, the sounds, sights and smells.

~~~~~~~~~

And too, Just as any  dis-ease growing within our Body, 

... the cells are crying out to be noticed.  

In its infancy,

 it sends us notices in the forms of symptoms,  

... that a "season" is about to change.

If we listen well, 

we are being told to give birth to new 

Health Routines.

Even if we don't listen to our bodies cry's for change, 

...many of our cells and tissues continue to renew themselves without us even intervening.

However,  just as nature can become exhausted and diseased with toxins, 

... our livelihood and existence can as destroyed as well, mentally, physically and spiritually.

Therefore, we need to give ourselves the correct nutrients

 to assist in removal 

of these wastes.

Nutrients in the form  of:

 Water 

(our rain), 

Proper Foods 

(our soil) ,

Movement 

to get rid of waste 

(our wind), 

And Rest 

(allowing Growth), and Healing,

... by also decreasing stress chemicals, toxins & other sources of cellular enemies.

You see, 

we are pretty much a part of nature, 

as it is...  "us."

Dis--Ease is a necessary part of the life cycle, but we can assist the seasons of our life,

...  by listening to what our body 's are trying to tell us.

We can take a stand, make changes,

and  create  patience and positive motivation.

By making changes, we can slow down dis-ease, 

and many times actually reverse it

 as well.

Its a new year now,

... and time to pay attention at what "season"  of

 Well-ness or Ill-ness we are in.

Be in the moment 

of each day ,

... and let us start 

listening more closely to our 

"bodies requests",

 for assistance ,

... in its needs to provide optimal health in any 

stage of life !

~ BRINGING IT ALL TOGETHER ~

It's time to take a moment to give gratitude and blessings for what we have in our lives.

 Wether you feel you have a little or a lot to be thankful for, lets not forget 

 Health & Wellness.

So for this season, look deeply into how you are taking care of YOU!

 "WATER" is needed for that 70% part of our whole body, to operate properly.

"It is Life"

"PROPER FOODS "

like Vegetables, fruits and proteins keep our 2nd Brain

"the Gut "  

    working happily.   

It communicates with our brain & hormones for proficiency.

"SLEEP" time is our

"Bodies Repair Time", 

so no blue light, drinks or food 3 hours before.

"ACTIVITY" is a must 

and the mentality of

 "Use it or loose it" 

is mandatory for efficiency of all other systems and organs.

 "MENTAL HEALTH" is the key.  

"You are what you tell your body."  

So pocket the negative and 

let Positive flow off of your tongue.  The Brain listens to you!

Make these 

5 golden rules, yours 

for Optimal Health.

No mater your age,

It will be the best gift you've ever given to yourself.

Remember to take baby steps in any new routine.

"Moderation"

with Blessings.

~  MOVEMENT  ~   

What is it?  A change in position wether it is physical or social.

Don't let the fall cool weather keep you from following through with either.

In the case of physical, which is ultimately mental as well...the body works to keep equilibrium.  But change is needed to keep the necessary metabolism working for removing wastes, and carrying oxygen and nutrients to the whole body.

Remember, it is a use it or loose it!!!

With social movement, it is carrying out those heartfelt visions so change can happen.

Without movement, life becomes stagnate.

Wether it is political, environmentalism, gay rights or standing up for racial injustice;

We as humans must evolve to create a better self and world.

Just as the trees shed their leaves with movement, so a new day and a new beginning exists 

as well. 

 Movement is at the heart of all
