How To Catch a Butterfly, By Rev. Melissa Leath

This may sound like a Biology Project from the eight grade class. But it actually is much easier than that. There are no difficult rules to this mission (such as, bring your biggest butterfly net and good running shoes). You already have come equipped with just the right stuff.

No, it isn’t the normal venture.

You don’t have to go to the nearby woods on a beautiful summer’s day. You don’t even have to plant special flowers that attract butterflies. It is not important to have sweet water to entice them.

Like I said, you already have the right stuff.

So, you say, what in the world do you have to do to catch a butterfly? Simply go outside, look up at the sky, put on the biggest smile you have and yell, “YES!”

A butterfly will land on your nose every time. Guaranteed!

The Secret and Its Missing Link
By Rev. Melissa Leath

The Secret is a self-help documentary supporting the ancient teachings that what we think about creates our world. Just how true is that teaching? Nay-sayers are concerned with using ancient wisdom to acquire material goals. What doesn’t the documentary tell us? How can we best use the Law?

• Just what is the Law of Attraction?

This universal law states ‘like attracts like’. On a deeper level it proves that everything in the universe is energy. Thought is a form of energy, so anything you focus on with strong emotional intent, feelings and concentration, you eventually will bring into your existence.

Therefore if you focus or energize your thoughts with pictures of poverty and lack, that is what you attract. If you concentrate your thoughts on health and well-being, by the law of attraction you must bring into existence health and well-being.

• Is The Secret dangerous, as the critics suggest?

It can be used for positive and negative. The Secret DVD does not tell us about being based in a spiritual foundation before purposely using the laws consciously. The Law of Attraction works all the time, whether you have a good, moral understanding, or are a mean and evil person. But the more you have a strong discipline in spiritual ways and follow loving practices to grow your inner being, you will have greater command of the Universal Laws.

Assisting the Healing Process,
By Melissa Leath

Creating a healthy lifestyle is probably the most important aspect to aiding the body to heal. We look for many different types of healing modalities expecting one of them to heal our bodies.

In reality, the body can heal itself. But we must do our part to create a healing environment for the body to have the resources it needs.

There are many suppliments, herbs, vitamins, and holistic health practitioners that can be incorporated to assist in healing. However, lifestyle, such as exercise, stress management and the way we treat our bodies is essential in our health regime.

Dr. Andrew Weil, in his Eight-Week Plan for Optimal Healing Power says, "A healthy lifestyle is the cornerstone of natural health and the best way to ensure that your body's healing system functions optimally."

Among others, Dr. Weil recommends adopting a certain protocol or program to follow each day. Slowly, start by clearing the pantry and refrigerator of food that does not compliment what you know is right for your body. Consider taking a walk each day, or do some kind of stretching or yoga. Look at what you may be lacking in your regular diet and check on what suppliments may enhance that area.

Last but not least, put into practice some form of stress release: Meditation, focus, contemplation, breathing exercises.

Taking all these things and putting them into your life can be very empowering, by themselves. But when you add them to a health program, your body will thank you.
