I like patterns and consistency. So, Mick’s up Life is designed to follow a pattern. You’ve probably already noticed it, but in case you haven’t, I’ll list it out. This might make it easier for you to follow where I’m going with each week’s posts.Monday – Inspirational, Encouragement, Limiting Beliefs, Goal Setting, Maximized Mind
Tuesday – Chiropractic Care, Spine Health, Maximized Nerve Supply
Wednesday – Food, Grocery Shopping, Meals, Maximized Nutrition
Thursday – Exercise, Workouts, Maximized Oxygen & Lean Muscle
Friday – Toxicity, Environment, Minimize Toxins
So, in honor of the Friday topic, I want to point out the fact that we need to be aware of toxins beyond chemical and environmental. We must also beware of toxins of the mind. Yes, this touches on the Monday topic of building up the mind. However, in light of events happening in recent days, we must realize that taking in too much news from the radio and TV can be hazardous to our health.
That is not to say all journalists and people in the news business are doing bad things. I have some close family and friends in those careers. There are others, however, who glamorize negativity, and sometimes the media gets carried away. If we allow ourselves to get caught up in it, then we risk adding unnecessary stress to our lives.
Granted, my husband and I tend the other extreme, and don’t watch any news or TV, and we rarely listen to live radio. I’m not saying this extreme is totally healthy, either, but at least that’s one less stress in our lives.
On that note, find some peaceful time to spend with your family this weekend. Turn off the TV. Play DJ, and spin your own hits, instead of getting live feed on the radio. Read a good book… maybe even as a family. Better yet, read the Bible. You can’t find any better peace than that found when cradled in the arms of God’s love. Enjoy!
How beautiful on the mountains
are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”
are the feet of those who bring good news,
who proclaim peace,
who bring good tidings,
who proclaim salvation,
who say to Zion,
“Your God reigns!”
