So much life experience and still I find myself staring into the face of body issues this week.... so when I saw an invitation from my dear friend Bobbi about body image issues I sent a message to her lightning fast to see if she would come on the show to talk about it with us... yay! she said yes! Bobbi's life mission is to expand peace, health and well-being by practicing, teaching and spreading daily life actions that foster these capabilities. She shares her creative and effective "life pie" system that guides you to your life ingredients for optimal peace, health and well being for your unique life. She especially serves those who are seeking greater meaning in their lives and who because of this deep longing may sometimes or often find themselves experiencing feelings of restlessness, anxiety, depression, or low self-worth. Over the past 25 years Bobbi has facilitated classes, seminars, public presentations, and retreats offering her services to hospital wellness programs, holistic health centers, community centers, religious/spiritual organizations, corporations, schools, and private groups and individuals. Bobbi also works with children diagnosed with autism, and other behavioral and developmental challenges within the Conejo Valley Unified School District. She provides paraprofessional services which include behavioral therapy methods and instructional support within school classrooms. To find out more about Bobbi go to: http://www.bobbirudin.com/ We will be opening up for callers this evening and would love to hear from you! Talk to you then,

Not all of us may be political activists or even weekend environmentalists. Many of us don't have the time to be as involved as we might like, however,  when it comes down to that moment of spreading cream, cleanser or brightener onto our bodies, into our mouths or onto the tender skin of our children, more and more of us are realizing that companies might not be as interested in our health as they are in their bottom line.  Gratefully we welcome the rebirth of the home "maker" The art of apothecary is making a strong comeback and group gatherings that support bartering of these goods are also helping to support local economies and environments.  Tonight we talk about the wonderful consequences of this trend toward awareness in the home. :) Monica Today.  

As many of us know, it is not enough to simply attend an art class or buy a fancy new box of paints to become an Artist. Being creative is a willingness to explore other realms of possibility, to take the risk of removing (even temporarily) the filter of our pre- existing notions and to question notions that might be deeply ingrained in our belief systems. The process of lifting the veil of perception can be scary to the human body and the ego... and not necessarily our own ego either. When we start to question what we see with our eyes that can sometimes make others uncomfortable as well.  Artists as intuitive is quite common as the processes of awakening are very similar. Tonight we share stories of artist seeing beyond the physical realms of perception.

Gratitude will always guide us back to love and peace. Stepping out of the space of judgment is such a rich experience. Tonight, stand in front of another person and look directly into their eyes and express to them how much they mean to you... watch what blooms in front of you....  Maybe that person is in the mirror. xoxo Monica.

Tonight we read articles from our Australian friends at www.Wakeup-World.com  Hemp, living outside the system and superfoods... We discuss ideas for empowering our lives and educate one another as to why laws that have been in place for many years might not have had our best interest in mind.  Some terrific articles tonight... enjoy...

Another beautiful night of trusting in something bigger than ourselves and the beautiful gift of guidance and intuition....  aaaah Love....
