Use what you need

I wonder how many of us look at life and see problems. There is no doubt that life has problems and we all have our fair share of them but if we change the word "Problem into Challenge" its amazing how we then begin to look at situations that once bothered us.

A challenge is something that most of like to face but a problem is something we tend to avoid or we see it as overwhelming. It is when we begin to change how we look at life and situations that our life begins to change.

My gran had a favorite saying or mantra if you like "Everyday and in every way I am getting better and better". Jill Ireland an actress who had cancer imagined a small shark inside of her eating away the cancer she had. She did die eventually but lasted longer than all the doctors said she would.

Our mind is capable of great things if only we think out of the box.

There is nothing unchristian about these things in my mind but I am sure many will have issues with them.


Aromatherapy,Acupuncture,Hypnotherapy to name a few are beneficial and have helped many through out their life. Positive thinking is now part of CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) and I am sure no one would have an issue with it.


I have an issue with those who see the above as something from the devil and believe me many small minded people have seen it as such.

Would I say anything should replace prayer or our dependence on God? No of course not but I would be wrong to judge those who use alternative medicine or therapy to improve their life.

Would a person bleeding to death just pray or would they reach a hospital?
