DAY 6
“In this game, no matter what you are doing, deem it FUN! Find the joy in it. Pretend you’re on vacation.” Pam Grout
Pam says, ” When you get happy, when you open your joy channels, the largesse of the universe can’t help but rush in.”
And the games continue! This month we are following Pam Grout’s THANK AND GROW RICH! Today we are preparing for day four (tomorrow). I aim to get the next day game out the night before!
DAY 4
Be grateful for insignificant and impractical things!
“When you’re on the frequency of joy and gratitude, the universe is free to line things up, work things out, pull rabbits out of hats.” Pam Grout
St Nectan’s Glen, Tintagel, Cornwall
Welcome to the 2017 GRATITUDE CHALLENGE! This is our 11th year of running this little happy challenge, but the first year we are running both the little booklets of gratitude AND doing the party games from Pam Grout’s THANK AND GROW RICH: 30 day experiment in shameless gratitude and unabashed joy. If you have not had the pleasure of reading this book, or trying out her universal games from her others, don’t miss out!
DAY ONE PARTY GAME: 2 steps
EVERY MORNING BEFORE RISING
step 1: Admit that “something amazingly awesome is going to happen to me today!”
step 2: Come to believe in blessings and miracles
Each morning, no matter how you feel or what is happening, say it to yourself or better out loud! Come on you KNOW you can!
DAY TWO PARTY GAME:
SO for tomorrow, collect photos of all of the wonderful things in your life be they your home, people you love, things special to you etc and make a VISION BOARD of all the things you ALREADY HAVE and are truly grateful for. WHY? Because “when you give up your linear worldview, your playground expands.”
AWESOME Right?
So next day is day three….
DAY THREE
Choose to actively ‘allow’ everything that occurs in your life, whether its mundane or ordinary. i.e.: I allow the sun to shine through my window. Or, I allow this lovely spearmint toothpaste to freshen my mouth.
“Cultivate a childlike attitude towards your creations. Ponder them, wonder about them, but most of all love them. That’s how you claim dominion over your life. Behold I have created this, and I call it good.” Pam Grout
Spend some time working the allowing muscle to help in your larger life manifestations!
There will be more to follow as the days come. There are 30 days of party games to work your way through! I highly advise buying the book and taking part, you really get the background and the great energy through from Pam Grout as she writes and shares the journey through how to practice gratitude in your life.

This is an excellent article about the MTHFR gene by Lauren Vaknine.
“If you have the gene mutation MTHFR, it means your body, especially your liver, does not process vitamins, minerals and nutrition in the right way and instead of converting them into their natural form to enable you to absorb what your body needs, it converts them into toxins. You can have the Homozygous gene or the Heterozygous gene. If you’re Homozygous, you’ve really got it bad, it means your body converts 70% of these nutrients into toxins.”
This can affect your baby while it is growing in your womb! A simple blood test can really help! This is well worth your time to read and print out and bring to your midwife.

This is a great article on how to deal with a strep throat infection more naturally, vs using antibiotics. Strep can have varying strains, and if left to its own devices in a system with low immunity, it can cause other more serious things to happen.
However, keeping the immune system strong and vital means that your body will just need extra support to show who’s boss! My daughter recently had a huge episode, and with a combination of chiropractic adjusting, loads of manuka honey and ginger tea, and a single dose of belladonna at bed time, it was gone the next day when she woke. That infection took 24 hours to disappear. Her system needed support not suppression. Allowing her to deal with the infection by allowing her own body to form antibodies to fight the infection means that she probably won’t suffer again with it, her body will instantly recognise it and kill it off. Both of my girls are really good at running 40C fevers too, their bodies are just amazing! Chronic overuse of antibiotics means that the body will always have a lowered immunity. It’s simply the very last choice after every natural method has been exhausted. Neither of my children have ever had antibiotics.
Have a read and let me know what you think.

At the UCA spring conference last weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting and listening to Dr Brett Hill, one of the Wellness Couch docs. Having recently written and published his first book, How to Eat An Elephant (http://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Eat-Elephant-solutions-lifelong-ebook/dp/B007JK5F7C/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1395607833&sr=1-2&keywords=how+to+eat+an+elephant), he has also been heavily involved in the downloadable and very listenable series of podcasts about health and wellness with his two colleagues Laurence Tham, Damian Kristof, and Marcus Pearce. Have a listen, you won’t be disappointed!

This new year brings with it a lot of promise for growth and real change. I wanted to share these ten questions from the lovely Debbie Ford, to help you clarify your intentions and thought processes when you are making choices in the months to come. The last few years have been intense for many of us, and being clear in your intention and desire yields greater results and leads to more joy! We could always use more of that!
