Following Enthusiasm

[agatha]

the old has to move out for the new to come in. similarly the enthusiasm for the old has to die for the new to appear. It is a transition phase. Just enjoy it while it lasts This too shall pass...

There was a posting on the Crystal Gateway today "Goodbye Mind, Hello Heart" that discusses this very thought as well as others mentioned on this thread:

"There is a funny "retirement" feeling in the air. You may not feel like working much, or have lost your usual motivation and inspiration for daily chores and projects...What's happening right now is: the grip of mind as our primary driver is being loosened :idea: as our heart is awakening and being activated...as a result of this shift from Mind to Heart Consciousness...it can feel like your head has been emptied or is being vacuumed (sucks, huh? sorry )....During this process you can find it hard to focus on any old or even current to do lists, and your memory suddenly goes blank even for things that you had in your head only a few moments before. Further, you're finding it hard to care that you can't focus....

As we let go of our attachment to the mind with all its false stories about who we are, what we should believe, how we should think.....We are being emptied so that something new can enter......It can actually feel disorientating to be living fully in the heart, so we are getting there little by little...

There's more but that's some of the main ideas.

Aphanizomenon Flos Aquae (AFA) is a wild cousin of Spirulina and it has Omega 3's as well as neuropeptides and PEA which also affect emotional and mental clarity. I have known many people to get relief from depression with just a gram a day of this:

Monica,

Thanks for the link but as far as EPA and DHA only a minuscule fraction of the recommended 1.1 gram is provided: .04 mg & <.01 mg per 250 mg capsule. Whereas, this 6 oz can of sustainably caught Wild Alaskan Sockeye Salmon contains 2100 mg EPA/DHA. So one-half can gives you approximately the recommended daily requirement of 1.1 gram for women.
I don't want to eat more than one can per week so I'll just experiment and see what happens. I'm not a big fan of supplements as I'd rather go with what the Creator had in mind whenever possible.

Apologies, I can't seem to get the hang of posting yet (focus!).
