Managing Sibling Rivalry

Author: Garrett Coan

It is human nature to feel competitive and envious toward others. A moderate spirit of competition is a positive and productive attribute in school and in business. Sibling rivalry is a normal part of growing up in families. The competition between siblings starts when the second child is born. Unfortunately, many parents ignore it and some even make the situation worse.

When occasional fighting becomes a constant series of arguments and fights, it must be dealt with to avoid years of discord and even potential danger. Here are some tips that will help you lessen your frustration over argumentative brothers and sisters and help them learn to get along better.

Healing The Mid-Life Love Crisis

Healing The Mid-Life Love Crisis

Author: Trevor Emdon

All I wanted was to fall in love and live happily ever after. The End.

Except it wasn’t that simple. At forty-something, I was hardly "on the shelf", but I was the veteran of two divorces. That gave rise to plenty of self doubt. It gave rise to another more sinister, subtle symptom too: I didn’t trust the opposite sex not to hurt me again. And guess what? Since the women I was meeting were in a similar age bracket, and also veterans of some painful emotional history, their fears echoed mine. Result? An almost cast iron guarantee that love cannot flourish! You might as well scatter seed on concrete and expect a wheat field to flourish.

Suffering and Happiness

Suffering and Happiness

Author: Laurent Grenier

The one feature that sets life on Earth apart from a paradise is suffering. It poses a problem for humanity and calls for a solution. This problem relates to human desires, the satisfaction of which is often difficult and uncertain, if not impossible, and always transient, in need of renewal; it is doomed to end sooner or later in death.

Through out the course of one’s life one is faced with and accumulates a history of emotional trauma that becomes stored in ones’s energy field. Such trauma poses many problems. These include such things as emotional and physical pain, chronic stress, a drain in one’s vital life energy and the tendency for the individual to take flight from the physical body. In this article I hope to address the latter, its consequences and a new modality that may be able to reverse this tendency.

The Minefield Of Eating Out On A Gluten Free Diet

The Minefield Of Eating Out On A Gluten Free Diet

Author: Gina Gardiner

Eating out when you are on a restricted diet always has the potential for difficulty. Only yesterday I was reminded of this when we went out for a late Sunday meal.

As always we had spoken to the restaurant, in fact it is one I have used before. Gravy is the usual problem for a traditional Sunday roast dinner, however we were assured that the chef would produce a gluten free version. So far I have yet to find any catering establishment that produces a gluten- free Yorkshire pudding. If you know of one please let us know so we can spread the work through our website.

Back to school preparations are in full-swing. Soon, the first bell of the year will ring and the sounds of summer will be replaced by the voices of school-aged children bemoaning the end of their summer and trying to sort out their new school routines: What building am I in?

The Capacity for Happiness and Respectability

The Capacity for Happiness and Respectability

Author: Laurent Grenier

Humans are liable to experience a variety of afflictions, but they are commonly endowed with a capacity for happiness and respectability. There is no guarantee, however, that they will exercise this capacity at all times and to the maximum, whatever happens. Depression and shame remain a possibility, which increases with the severity of their afflictions and the difficulty of living up to the values that are necessary for their happiness and respectability: courage, efficiency, wisdom, and nobility.

The Definition Of Alternative Medicine

The Definition Of Alternative Medicine

Author: Ken Snow

Have you ever suffered from a horrible headache when you
thought the best remedy might be for someone to bash you over
the head, or to pull your hair out? Then you might have some
experience with alternative medicine!
In all seriousness, alternative medicine is not about hurting
yourself, but involves investigating other potential methods to
treat an ailment besides synthetic drugs. A good purpose for
alternative medicine is to avoid developing a dependence on
drugs of any type, which can supersede any medicinal or curing
effects they might have. Searching for different ways of
dealing with your physical or emotional issues or conditions
can end up being better for you in the long run.
