I hope all is well. If it’s not “all well” then I hope you can find something positive in whatever you’re experiencing. We’vA few of our practitioners have had some challenges recently and I know that it’s really quite an art to stay positive in the face of adversity. I often remind myself of the saying from movie The Exotic Hotel Marigold… “It will all be alright in the end. If it’s not alright, it’s not the end”. The gorgeous young man in this delightful movie was an incurable optimist. I give him and the movie 5 stars. You may know our wonderful Hypnotherapist, Manuela Picinich. She recently had 3 weeks overseas attending a relative’s wedding in South Africa. She ending up getting stranded half way home waiting for a standby flight for 4 days with no luggage! Apologies to her clients that have had to postpone appointments. She’s home now but still with no luggage. Sometimes there is nothing like a trip away to make you appreciate the comforts of home. Another practitioner, Etsuko Constable is currently in the middle of the typhoon in Japan so please send her some loving thoughts. As I was growing up one of my favourite movies was Pollyanna. If you’ve never seen it then I highly recommend it. It’s the story of Pollyanna Whittier, a young orphan who goes to live with her wealthy but stern and cold spinster Aunt Polly, who does not want to take in Pollyanna, but feels it is her duty to her late sister. Pollyanna’s philosophy of life centres on what she calls “The Glad Game,” an optimistic attitude she learned from her father. The game consists of finding something to be glad about in every situation. It originated in an incident one Christmas when Pollyanna, who was hoping for a doll in the missionary barrel, found only a pair of crutches inside. Making the game up on the spot, Pollyanna’s father taught her to look at the good side of things—in this case, to be glad about the crutches because “we didn’t need to use them!” *Wikipedia The story of Pollyanna is about how this young girl opened the hearts of those around her by being positive and optimistic in almost every situation. This movie has another quote that I love; “When you look for the bad in mankind expecting to find it, you surely will.” The powerful message, of course, is that the opposite is also true. When you look for the good in people you will surely find that too. Partly because of this movie and partly because I had very open hearted parents I grew up doing my best to look for the good in people. It’s a very rare thing that I can’t find it. Recently a client reminded me of a little story I had included in a newsletter many years ago. It was about an old Cherokee teaching his grandson about life. “A fight is going on inside me,” he said to the boy. “It is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves. One is evil – he is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego.” He continued, “The other is good – he is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion, and faith. The same fight is going on inside you – and inside every other person, too.” The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, “Which wolf will win?” The old Cherokee simply replied, “The one you feed.” So this week I encourage you to be aware of which wolf you are feeding. I dream of the day when our world leaders and politicians do the same. Now, there are a few things happening at Simply Natural this week that I want to tell you about… Firstly, today three of our beautiful, open-hearted Practitioners are offering free 15 minute sessions.
