When your brain is online, you are sharp as a tack, and quick with facts. But if things are little slow up there, read on. We might have some good tips for you.

How’s your ability to concentrate and process information these days? Are any of these familiar?

• There were three things you wanted to remember to do when you got home from work today. What the heck were they??
• Your new neighbor just came over and introduced herself. But now you’re embarrassed, because two minutes later when you turn to introduce her to your husband….you can’t remember her name!
• Your brain just crashes like a frozen computer when you try to tackle your checkbook or you have to work with numbers.
• You’re concerned you’ll look dumb at Game Night. It’s Trivial Pursuit this time. You used to know a lot of those answers, but are sure you won’t be able to recall any of them now.
• You’re drowning in emails. There are too many and they’re coming in way too fast. You just close your Inbox and hope they’ll all evaporate.
• You’re anxious because your memory seems to be getting worse every month – you wonder if you’ll even remember your own name and address by the time you hit 70!

Wouldn’t it be nice if there was something to blame for your sluggish concentration and fuzzy, foggy brain?

We were in Barnes and Noble last week and the young woman helping us seemed to be having a concentration-challenged day.

When she tried to look up a book title for us, her computer froze. As she tried to find the book on the shelf, she couldn’t remember exactly where the section was. Later she checked us out, and gave us incorrect change.

“I think my baby ate my brain,” she said, as she patted her pregnant belly. We all had a good laugh.

It’s time to reclaim your brain!  Call in the Power of Concentration!

When you’re connected to this energy you’re a master at assimilating facts:

• Your mind is like a steel trap and you easily access your memory bank.
• You don’t panic when you want to introduce someone. You get their name the first time, and it sticks.
• You easily use technology to process all the information you don’t want to, so you have room in your brain to process what you do.
• Thinking clearly is your new normal. Trivial Pursuit? Jeopardy? Where you put your keys? No problem!
• That sharp mind of yours comes up with a system for quickly and efficiently managing your emails, plus all the data and the information that flies across your desk every day.

2 ways to turn on your Power of Concentration :

#1: Are you tired of scratching your head, trying to remember everything? Here’s an affirmation that can help open up those mental floodgates.

#2: Keep a bottle of Concentration Vibrancy Essence close by this week. When you feel a dip in your brain power, take 7 drops. It will be like hitting the refresh button on your computer. Order yours HERE!

Life’s not only about the facts,
but mastering them opens the door to what’s behind them.

Here’s to your brainpower!

Jamie here…

When I think of Green Topaz, I think of my mom.

She was an amazing woman, generous mother, and talented artist who deeply loved her family and friends. In her final days a year ago there was much singing, laughing, crying and showers of love.

She was such a great example of the Power of Understanding….Right to the end, her mind was clear and sharp. At 95 years old, she did crossword puzzles daily, read voraciously, belonged to multiple book groups, and played bridge.

She talked on the phone daily to family members, always getting the updates on everyone’s lives. She had her own laptop, did email, and printed the photos we sent her. She still drove her own car up until a few weeks before her passing! Her mind was always fully engaged in life.

Will you still be sharp and engaged at 95?

Will your kids and friends call you

daily to talk about their lives?

If that’s what you want, make sure you’re strong in the Power of Understanding!

Here are some of the signs you could use a little strengthening of Green Topaz:

• You’re afraid to ask questions because you might look stupid.
• You don’t easily share the details of your life. Even when your spouse asks how you’re day was, you usually just say, “Fine.” (Possibly causing her a good deal of frustration over time!)
• You’re uncomfortable talking to other people and exchanging ideas, but then you end up feeling isolated and starved for relationship.
• Rather than read up on how to do something, you plow ahead without enough information and end up bogging down in your own mistakes.
• You’re worried that your confusion and frequent misunderstandings might lead to something very serious as you age.
• You can’t even remember the last time you took a class or learned something new.

It doesn’t have to be this way! You were born with intelligence and the ability to comprehend…The Power of Understanding is within you.

You’re enrolled in the school of life.

Learning is everywhere. Soak it up!

When your Power of Understanding is at full force:

• You’ll never be shy about asking questions, because you know that’s how you’ll learn and understand more…you smart cookie, you!
• Your spouse will be happy that you share the detailed update on your day when you come home, instead of just grunting, “fine.”
• You’ll feel loved and appreciated by the regular calls from friends and family who enjoy the questions you ask about their lives, and who also want to hear about yours.
• You’ll have the patience to learn all you need to know before tackling your projects intelligently. Why waste time on screw-ups?!
• Your mind will be active and you’ll feel alive and engaged as you find opportunities to learn new things at every turn.

2 steps toward greater Green Topaz Power of Understanding:

#1: Tired of feeling like your mind isn’t as sharp as it could be? Try this affirmation daily:

“I gather interesting information!” 

Saying and singing this affirmation 10 times a day will begin to reinforce this Power of Understanding in your life.
#2:  Take 7 – 21 drops of Understand Green Topaz Vibrancy Essence daily. This remedy will align you with energetic frequency of Understanding and help you sharpen your intellect and interest in life.

Live long, love deeply, and learn all the time.

In the end, the secret to learning is so simple: Think only about whatever you love. Follow it, do it, dream about it…and it will hit you: learning was there all the time, happening by itself.

Here’s to a lifetime of learning!

Here’s to your brainpower!

3 to 1. Apparently that’s the magic ratio that will lead you to flourishing in life instead of languishing.

Many studies have recently been showing that if you want to be truly, deeply joyful, creative, and open, you have to have at least 3 positive thoughts or feelings for every one negative thought or feeling.

It sounds easy, doesn’t it? Sure, with the Power of Optimism flowing freely through your being, it would be.

But, if you’ve succumbed to all the fear in the news, or if life has just knocked you around one too many times recently, perhaps this has gotten out of balance, and your Power of Optimism isn’t being accessed.

Here’s what it might look like if the negative thoughts are winning in your life:

• At end of day, you feel drained and exhausted. You go home, flop in the chair and fret about all the challenges you had to deal with today, and worry about the new ones you’ll have tomorrow.
• Everything just feels so heavy, soooo difficult. There seems to be roadblocks at every turn.
• You find yourself telling everyone you talk to about how rotten everything is – how stressed you are, how your mother calls up to complain all the time, how your dog pooped on the floor yesterday, what a mess the government is in….
• You’re just not having any fun. Everywhere you look, you see more reasons to give up. “Life sucks,” is your mantra.
• You’re whining about never getting ahead in your career. Clients don’t stick with you, your boss doesn’t give you a raise, people just don’t seem to want to work with you.

We’ve all been there, but have you gotten so used to the negativity and pessimism in your mind that you don’t realize how deeply it’s affecting you?

Do you want to remember the good stuff or the bad?

A good friend of ours was just showing us her family photo album the other day. There were wonderful pictures of her kids and herself and her husband, in all their ages and stages.

There were photos of them laughing, playing at the beach, huddling for warmth in their tent on a camping trip, roasting marshmallows over a fire, opening presents on Christmas morning. To us there seemed to be a lot of joy and many great memories.

This simple experience of looking at these photos turned into a little healing moment for our friend though….she told us how she barely remembered all of those experiences! That when she thinks of all the years of the kids growing up, she remembers the fights, the stress, the car shuttling in traffic, the messy house, the times they got in trouble at school or had their painful heartbreaks.

She remembered the negative stuff very clearly. But all the joy, the positive experiences, the laughter, the play – that was all fuzzy. (Good thing she’s got the pictures to remind her!)

Of course, our friend knows about the Vibrancy Path, so the next thing she said was, “Boy, I think I really need to strengthen my Power of Optimism! For all these years, my attention has been captured by the negative experiences, instead of focusing on all the positive ones. Wow, how did that happen?”

Positivity can help you live up to 10 years longer!

Use the Power of Optimism that’s at your fingertips.

As with all the Vibrancy Powers, this is a frequency in your energy field, just waiting to be called upon. It’s an energy that you can tap into to help you focus on the good in your life. Heal thyself of pessimism and see what life has in store for you! You will:

• Have plenty of energy to sink your teeth into life, because you’re not pouring it down the drain of misery.
• Discover that, no matter what people say, life can actually be fun! The good stuff has always been there, but now you’ll be able to really see it and feel it.
• Realize that when you look on the bright side, you see more options and opportunities for ways to make things even better.
• Find that you’re getting that raise or magnetizing more clients who just can’t wait to spend time with you and your sunny disposition.
• Accentuate the positive – and it’ll rub off on others. Everyone around you will start noticing what’s good about life, and the positivity will multiply.

Go ahead!

Take those lemons and make some yummy lemonade!

2 ways to tap into the Mocha Gold Power of Optimism:
 
#1: Tired of complaining about everything and seeing no sign of change? Here’s an affirmation that might help you turn that tide:

“I direct my thoughts toward the positive.”

We suggest you sing it to out loud or to yourself 7 times whenever you notice a “life sucks” mantra is filling your head. If it’s true that what you think about grows, then this is the perfect antidote to a gloomy perspective. The more you feed positivity and optimism, the more it will begin to play out in your life.

#2: Keep the Optimism Vibrancy Essence handy this week. Every time you feel like you’re slipping into the moan and groan of all that’s wrong in your life, whip out that bottle, take 7 drops, and open yourself up to what’s good.

Optimism is a choice.

or rejoice that thorns have roses.”
