Have you ever noticed how similar the cross section of a carrot looks to the very part of our body that we know carrots help; the human eye?
By now most everyone has grown accustomed to hearing about the Law of Attraction. A great many folks associated with the new age movement have been teaching about it and many have adopted it as an idea that resonates. Recently I was talking with a homeopath in my area and he was telling me about one of the tenets of homeopathy; the Law of Similars. It struck me how similar (forgive the pun) the Law of Attraction is to the Law of Similars. Both strongly contend that like attracts like. In fact, Esther and Jerry Hicks, authors of The Law of Attraction even purport that our clichés, such as “Birds of a feather flock together,” hint at our innate understanding of the idea of like attracts like.

Physical exercise can be a healthy and effective means for releasing negative feelings.
Conflict and confrontation can be two of the biggest balance busters, but having some coping mechanisms in your toolbox can go a long way toward helping you keep your cool and maintain your health and well being during a difficult difference of opinion. Regardless of whether a dispute is with a spouse, friend or business associate the following methods can be employed to help you stay balanced.
1) Get clear about how you feel. Are you feeling frustrated, disappointed, slighted or confused? If it’s hard to determine what you’re feeling, try using a feeling chart. Knowing how you feel is the first step in allowing your needs and desires to be effectively understood and communicated.

Organic yogurt is abundant with probiotics.
Given the origins of their name (Pro-Latin for “in favor of”-and biotic-Greek for “pertaining to life”) we can deduce that these organisms are advocates of vitality. Indeed, probiotics are our body’s tiny yet tremendously powerful balance boosters. For centuries probiotics were simply consumed by way of cultured foods. The book Nourishing Traditions provides a thorough account of how foods such as yogurt, kefir, tempeh, kimchi and sauerkraut were eaten regularly in their respective regions and thus supplied highly helpful bacteria to their consumers.
