DAY 9!!

Hey guys so another day! And its Friday!!! Today I'm answering pg 81, can men and women really be 'just friends'?
I'm going to have to say yes and no. Sometime during the friendship at least one will think about what it would be like to be more.Although once you get past a certain stage then I feel like both will know that a relationship wouldn't work and then you are just friends.

So yes guys and girls can be just friends but not until they realize why they couldn't date. Sorry for the short post! Hope I explained it well enough

Day 8!!

Day 8! Cant believe its been over a week. I know i had wanted to do this for awhile and just kept putting it off and then finally started one day. the start of something is always the hardest i find.
Well today i am going answering pg 166, How do our minds affect our health?
i know physically im affected when my mind isnt clear. I have excema and when im stressed and my mind is constantly going it flairs up.
i personally also believe that alot of things is mind over matter. If you start thinking that your throat is sore, eventually you will trick yourself into coughing and swallowing lots which irritates it and actually makes it sore!
One way i have noticed to help ease my mind is having things clean and tidy. If their is no clutter around then my mind tends to focus more and relax which helps my body relax.
Hope everyones week is going well! only one more day of work till the weekend!!

Day 7!!

Got home tonight and was just about to get ready for bed when i realized i hadnt done this today! So im attempting to answer this even though my mind is half asleep haha

I also hadnt picked a question out so i flipped through the book and randomly stoppped at page 157 cuz it has a green background haha yes this is how my mind is working right now
It asks What can technology never replace?

first thing that pops in my head is emotion and feelings. Robots can be programmed to think and react to different situations but it can never experience the light headiness and butterflies you get when you see that certain someone smile and wink at you or a gnite text that is so cute you cant help but fall asleep smiling. Im happy im not a robot. I am me.

Day 6 : Soul Pancake Challenge

Well day 6 is here, today im going to tackle How do thoughts affect Reality? from pg 11 in the book. This one has me thinking a lot. May be over analyzing my answer but here goes..

If you are constanly living in a dream world then you miss out on the life around you. Also if you are constantly thinking negative thoughts then you appear to others as a negative person which affects how they interact with you.

So i believe thoughts are the key to everything. If you can wrap your mind around trying to see the positive and good in everything then eventually thats what you automatically see without even thinking about it.

Last year i started trying to think positive and to see something good in everyone and i truly beleive it has helped me feel brighter on the inside if that makes sense  :)

Hey Guys! So today i have been trying to make a video for you guys, as im going to try and do one video a week but after over an hour and 3 devices later im calling it quits for today, and ill try and figure out another way to do it.

The question i will be answering is from page 63, What one eye-opening experience should every person have?

I believe with my whole heart that every person needs to move to a city they dont know, with no one or at least with not very many people they know and live there for a couple of months.

I recently did this myself. I moved to Vancouver for culinary school. I will admit that it was the hardest thing i have ever done. But i survived and it was also the most rewarding thing i have ever done!

I feel like it just teaches you so much about yourself.

Would love to hear your experience of doing this or your answer to this question! Feel free to comment :)

So i totally didnt get a chance to do the soul pancake challenge yesterday as i was barely home! So today i will be doing two to make up for it!!

Yesterdays i will do the one on page 35. What paralyzes your creativity? What fuels it?
The first thing that comes to my mind when i think of trying to answer this question is a quote from john lennon

“There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love. When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life.” 

 So i feel like if you are feeling loved and encouraged then your creativity will flow freely, but if you are constantly living in fear and worrying you wont be able to show your true self 

 

 

Now for todays challenge! This question comes from page 55. What emotion do you wish you could better control?  
i wish i could control all my emotions better but i know that i should dig deeper and evaluate so.. 

i will say that i wish i could control my sadness better. Some times i feel myself feeling sad because im sad which makes me sadder. And if someone says something negative i automatically take it to heart which i know is bad. I feel like if i could control how i react to sadness it would improve my life.

Well thats my answers for now! I promise i will answer tomorrow!

Hey guys so day 2 of my SoulPancakeChallenge!


Today i am doing the question on page 47, it asks whats one thing you learnt that blew your mind?

This is a tough one!  I am constantly learning something new everyday, and i find with different challenges that you face in life will teach you different aspects of life.

But the one thing that i learnt that blew my mind the most is  how much people care and/or dont care. I have some friends who i would consider to be family and i know they would do anything for me. but i also have some firends who i used to be really close who now i dont even talk to. So yeah i would say this blows my mind.

Well im off to a movie date!
