“Don’t criticize them; they are just what we would be under similar circumstances.” – Abraham Lincoln
Lincoln had learned by bitter experience that sharp criticisms end in futility.
Do you know someone you would like to change, regulate, and improve? Great! That is natural. You may even feel justified. But why not begin on yourself? From a purely selfish standpoint, that is a lot more meaningful than trying to improve others – yes, and a lot less risky.
Anyone can criticize, condemn, and complain – and many do.
But it takes character and self-control to be understanding and forgiving.

Selenite is named after the Greek goddess of the moon, Selene, because of its soft white light, seemingly reflecting the moon’s rays. Its many metaphysical and healing benefits make it the perfect starter stone. Selenite is excellent for attaining mental clarity, helping with rest and meditation, and setting intentions of wellness and calmness towards your goals. Sleep with a palm stone under your neck for deep, soothing sleep, and to re-align your spine. It is a self-cleansing stone, and can also be kept in close vicinity of other crystals to cleanse them of their stored negative energies.

I often refer to the ego as “everybody’s got one”; now our bigger choice and decision in life is what we do with it and how we use it. The ego’s function helps us distinguish between right and wrong and make sense of our world. No human being escapes the challenges of life, as it is the lessons and learnings that make us become conscious and grow us emotionally and spiritually. Some lessons we see coming, others arrive on our doorstep as a complete surprise. All require us to sort through our grief, loss, disappointment, hurt, anger, shame, and jealousy into clarity. When we get too bogged down and stuck in our emotional pain and begin to identify with our negative beliefs without fully releasing them, we are at risk of becoming our story and staying a victim to it. Lightening our load helps free the ego into expansiveness!

Life is stressful. We don’t always eat well, and whether you’re active or inactive, your joints, tissues, and cells are under constant stress, causing inflammation. If your body is overly inflamed (like most people), it makes it harder to heal, sleep, and lose weight.
Symptoms are often conventionally treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs). These drugs are cheap and common, but have many side effects and can cause damage to the organs. Plexus Ease contains four amazing ingredients with powerful anti-inflammatories and enzymes, such as New Zealand Green-Lipped Mussel, Turmeric, Bromelain, and Serrapeptase. Check out their benefits; there are so many things that make them so powerful!
