Here's a book recommendation fromDr. Mary!
"Everyone craves something, be it a new pair of shoes, a piece of chocolate, popularity, or even for one glance from that cute guy in English. In fact, we were designed to crave things—just not earthly things.In this teen adaptation of Lysa TerKeurst’s Made To Crave, you’ll discover how to direct your craving toward God, where you’ll find lasting satisfaction and understand how our heavenly and earthly cravings can live in better harmony. |

I have fallen in love with art journaling! It is a great way to express the creative soul within, to allow yourself to heal from old wounds, to challenge yourself to go higher with your passions and dreams. I use art journaling in my therapy and coaching with individuals to explore many aspects of themselves and their desires for their lives. I would love to offer you a few website links that provide quality (yet inexpensive) instruction on art journaling, digital journaling, and creative mixed media projects (those that use many types of media: paint, pastels, paper, fabric, pens, inks, sprays, etc. |

It has been said that one person’s trash is another person’s
treasure, but how much “treasure” can our homes hold? Over time, keepsakes and
everyday items accumulate and become clutter, taking up valuable living space.
Nineteenth-century philosopher Henry David Thoreau has urged us to “simplify,
simplify,” and failure to do so when it comes to home organization will
eventually result in living environments reminiscent of what you may see on an episode
of Hoarders: Buried Alive. The de-cluttering process may be a daunting task,
but think about the time you could save by organizing your home. |

"Is Sugar Toxic?" segment of 60 minutes on CBS aired on Sunday evening. Is an interesting segment and matches the research that is being done regarding Food Addictions and Eating Disorders by Eating Disorder professionals who presented at the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals in March 2012.
There is certainly strong indication of the actuality of sugar addiction! Take a look at the segment and see what you think! Blessings, Susan

Most of you are probably familiar with the Lap Band. Maybe
you’ve seen the “roaring hungry lion” commercial or have read about this weight
loss surgery in a magazine. Maybe you’ve even undergone surgery and have a band
yourself! Either way, I thought I’d share my thoughts about some discoveries
along my journey.
I was Banded in July 2010. I’m small framed, 4’10”. I made
the decision to be Banded not only because I have a history of losing and
gaining weight multiple times in my 27 years, but also because of hormone,
spinal health, and ultimately insuring a better future (not to mention I was
hovering over the ____lb mark). |
