for inner peace; and from inner peace
comes external peace."

has the vision to recognize it as such."
[Simpleology Daily]


We all know individuals, families, and groups of people struggling
with obstacles that seem to be insurmountable.

When you hear, read or think about "health" what is the first thing
that comes to mind?

Emotional health?
Familial health?
Financial health?
Physical health?
Relationship health?
Social health?
Spiritual health?

As with other health issues, your physical and your spiritual health

"The power that lives deep within you may need
to be awakened.  Acceptance, acknowledgment
and awareness that this power exists is the first

What would your life be like if you had a personal mentor to guide
you on a daily, weekly and monthly basis -- on information products
of your choosing?

Certainly your life is worth investing in yourself.

Here are four mentors who have touched our lives this past month
and we are pleased to share them with you in this tenth entry of
Meet the Best.

Introducing with appreciation and gratitude this month's "meet the
best" mentors Eckhart Tolle and Dave Lakhani plus Two Mystery
Mentors.*

* Contact The Baum Group to find out who they are and how they are
able to impact your life.

Eckhart Tolle has been sharing his work with us for many years, and
recently when faced with the need to reconnect with our spiritual self.

Within the pages of Stillness Speaks one of his earlier books we found
these thoughts...

•  "Most people's lives are run by desire and fear."  (p.  58)

•  "Desire is the need to add something to yourself in order to be yourself
more fully.  All fear is the fear of losing something and thereby becoming
diminished and being less."  (p.  58)

•  "These two movements obscure the fact that Being cannot be given
or taken away.  Being in its fullness is already within you, Now."  (p.  59)

Dave Lakhani came into our lives when we were faced with business
and life issues that needed immediate attention.

Here are a few thoughts from his book The Power of an Hour

•  "This book is holistic; it addresses both personal and business issues
because there is no separation between the two."  (p.  xi)

•  "This book is a guidebook.  Open the book to the issue you want to
focus on and you'll find detailed information about the key areas you
should explore."  (p.  xii)

•  There are "Seven Steps to Activating the Power of an Hour"  (p.  3)

The Benefits of Journaling


"Staying present in the moment helps you be aware
  and accept your intuition, feelings and thoughts.
  With awareness and acceptance of your intuition,
  feelings and thoughts you are able to manage and
  overcome your stress reactions."
  [Your Weekly StressTip]

"Be larger than your task."
  [Simpleology Daily]


Among the benefits of journaling are...

1.  Journaling helps you stay on track as you focus on your goals

2.  Journaling helps you stop sabotaging yourself with ways to
handle your self-imposed barriers that stop you from achieving
your goals.

3.  Journaling is the single most important thing you can do to
identify your stressors and stress indicators in achieving your
goals.

Since you are the awareness of your thoughts and emotions,
journaling keeps you present -- in the moment -- by shifting
your focus from the emotion and thought to the awareness
of the emotion and thought.

This shift changes your energy level from being stagnant to
being dynamic.

"True satisfaction comes from giving.  Want more
  satisfaction?  Give more because giving presents
  its own rewards.  Appreciation, gratitude and true
  satisfaction."  [Your Weekly StressTip]

"With the new day comes new strength and new
  thoughts."  [Simpleology Daily]


We are all in this life together as spiritual beings in physical bodies
having human experiences to learn life lessons.

So how do you live as a spiritual being in a physical world?
Here are a few exercises from a colleague...

"...repeating these four words many times during the day
- I am a Soul - gently guides you inwards towards your soul,
and away from the frantic, busy outside world."
(Source : John Holland's Soul Inspirations Newsletter, July 07, 2008)

"...When you want to experience the feeling of being with
your soul, or when you feel you need to slow the pace down
when life gets overwhelming and chaotic, simply close your
eyes, cross your hands over your heart, breathe deeply and
say to yourself "Find my center."  By doing so, you'll open the
connection with your soul, where you'll discover that you're
able to let go and gently relax into the present."
(Source : John Holland's Soul Inspirations Newsletter, July 14, 2008)

The benefits of these exercises to your health have been realized
by many and confirmed by the medical community.

Appreciation and Leadership in Action


"Making progress starts by making decisions from the various
  choices you have selected; and by the opportunities that are
  presented to you today and every day."
  [Your Weekly StressTip]

"Aim for the highest."
  [Simpleology Daily]


Appreciation and leadership in action requires focus on the now,
the present moment.

Being mindful of the now, being vigilant without thought in the
present moment helps you take action on what matters.

A New Earth : Awakening to Your Life's Purpose book club member
...shares what being present means to her: "Being present means
I am consciously speaking, doing and acting, creating inner space
and stillness, of which there is no lacking."

Appreciation and leadership in action is what matters.

To show your appreciation and leadership in action is more powerful
than saying -- you appreciate something.

How many times have you heard...

I appreciate what you are doing and saying to change this situation.

...with no action on the part of the appreciator?
