Needed a pick-me-up. I should look at these cards more often. I hate feeling stressed but the advice helps!

Your Type Six EnneaThought for November 26th— Sixes can express the essence of the healthy Seven by feeling a deep sense of gratitude for the boundless goodness of life. As a Six, how can you show your appreciation for your blessings? Perhaps you could celebrate without worrying about the future. Be sure to include an awareness of your anxieties as they can be your teachers, too.

Tasty apple pull apart bread! This can be done vegan if you make the biscuits yourself. I substituted butter for coconut oil. Vegan biscuits here: http://minimalistbaker.com/the-best-damn-vegan-biscuits/ Apple filling here: http://blog.hostthetoast.com/apple-fritter-pull-apart-bread/

Truely man is the king of beasts, for his brutality exceeds theirs. We live by the death of others: we are burial places! I have from an early age abjured the use of meat, and the time will come when men such as I will look on the murder of animals as they now look on the murder of men.

Leonardo Da Vinci (1452-1519)

"Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances of survival of life on Earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.”

-Albert Einstein We don’t think he was just talking about nutrition. Notice that in this article we haven’t said much at all about the role of meat in nutrition, even though there’s a lot more to talk about than heart disease. Nor have we gone into the ethics of vegetarianism, or of animal rights. The purpose of those omissions is not to brush off those concerns, but to point out that on ecological and economic grounds alone, meat-eating is now a looming problem for humankind. You don’t have to have any conscience at all to know that the age of heavy meat-eating will soon be over as surely as will the age of oil. Read the rest here: http://www.worldwatch.org/node/549
