Happy Birthday Albert Einstein; Gravity

Albert Einstein was born March 14, 1879, and published his groundbreaking theories in physics at a fairly young age of 26. His first wife, Mileva Marić Einstein-Marity, may have had some involvement with the work. Letters suggest she chose to not include her name on the papers in order to support his career in hope that he would be able to find work so they would be able to afford to get married. He agreed in the eventual divorce settlement to give her any money awarded to him for a Nobel Prize (there had been expectations he would be given one). (scientificamerican)

*This continues from the post Physics took a wrong turn in 1887; and the meaning of Null.

*Tost initially published March 14, 2020 on earth-ocean.info.

Special relativity is not the research for which he was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1921 but he did write to Mileva about it: “But nobody made it clearer than Albert Einstein himself that they collaborated on special relativity when he wrote to Mileva on 27 March 1901: “How happy and proud I will be when the two of us together will have brought our work on relative motion to a victorious conclusion.”” They were able to marry in 1903 and his five important papers were all published within a short time span in 1905. The first one on the photoelectric effect was the article for which he was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1921. (scientificamerican)

The theory of relativity was not considered to be supported with enough physical proof possibly. Measurements of a solar eclipse were considered support however the data may have been manipulated somewhat. (theguardian)

“Problems cannot be solved at the same level of thinking that created them.” – Albert Einstein

Quantum effects have been supported by modern research, and quantum computing.

The Special Relativity equation, E = MC squared, is not in question due to the work proving the theory that there is an ether type of energy throughout the universe. It is the theory of General Relativity, based on the idea that space is empty that is in question.

The theory of relativity has two parts. (1) Special Relativity involves physics in the absence of gravity and (2) General relativity is an explanation of gravity and how it relates to other forces in nature. The General Relativity theory would be affected because it is based on the premise that space is empty and motionless and suggests gravity is due to the attraction of large objects for other objects. James DeMeo walks us through the data that shows there is a drag effect that is roughly equal to the amount of energy it takes for a rocket to leave our atmosphere. This drag effect that rockets need to overcome suggests that space is not empty or motionless and that gravity is due in part to the motion of ether around planets and other astral objects.

The equation E = MC squared would remain accurate in the absence of gravity and to calculate the Energy required to move something when ether is present would need us to add a factor to the equation to represent the local speed of the ether drag effect. The extra energy to leave the atmosphere around a planet is like the extra energy it takes to swim against a current or across a current in a river instead of swimming with the current. It takes more energy to swim sideways in the current, across the river, and even more energy to swim upstream, against the current.

  • Relative Velocity – swimmer crossing a river : ExamSolutions, (Youtube). A math lesson on how swim across a river – you may need a life jacket.

The drag effect of the ether’s movement would vary depending on the location and date. Seasonal changes affect the strength, and higher altitude can strengthen the measurable rate of ether flow, while enclosing structures, like a cement basement, can dampen the strength of the current.

Hypothetically if we were traveling through space and visiting other planets and galaxies and wanted to know the drag effect of the local ether then we would need to measure it – which could be possible with the machines that have been created to study it here on Earth. Modifications might be needed – but that is science, try something, measure it, modify it slightly, try again, measure it, modify it, repeat as needed.

Science is like a relay race with scientists passing the baton of knowledge on to others to carry it forward a little farther. Isaac Newton said it well: “If I have seen further than others, it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants.” An apple fell on his head, and he thought of the idea of gravity, or so the story goes. Galileo may have been one of the giants credited by Isaac Newton, as Newton was born in 1642, the year that Galileo died while still under house-arrest for a “strong suspicion of heresy.” The Catholic Church was not pleased with the idea that our planet might revolve around the sun instead of the other way around. (newsroom.ucla.edu) The Vatican has more recently (1992) stated that Galileo was correct. (newscientis.com)

Will we have to wait 359 years before Michelson and Morley’s null result will be properly understood as being simply a negative hypothesis regarding the strength of the ether’s drag effect, rather than a result of zero drag, zero motion? The theory that the universe is full of an energy form was the widely accepted theory for centuries in just slight variations regarding motion or lack of motion. Albert Einstein and Mileva’s theory of relativity went against the centuries long belief that something is present throughout space rather than it being a complete void. The math about gravity that rules out any other motion in the universe requires complexity and ignoring anomalies such as Spiral Nebulae that visually display a sense of motion being present in outer space. Other anomalies in space images and expected light signatures also conflict with the idea of space being a void.

An example of a spiral galaxy, the Messier 77 (also known as NGC 1068); The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured this vivid image of spiral galaxy Messier 77 — a galaxy in the constellation of Cetus, some 45 million light-years away from us. The streaks of red and blue in the image highlight pockets of star formation along the pinwheeling arms, with dark dust lanes stretching across the galaxy’s starry centre. The galaxy belongs to a class of galaxies known as Seyfert galaxies, which have highly ionised gas surrounding an intensely active centre. (Wikipedia)

Vincent Van Gogh probably knew what water looks like as it flows and spirals in tiny whirl pools – and say it in the sky too.

The Starry Night, by Vincent Van Gogh, via (x.com/MarioNawfal). Current news: ‘Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’ surprisingly adheres to the laws of physics, scientists find’ (space.com)

Why does a nutritionist care about quantum physics?

Because our bodies are made out of atoms and any Laws of Physics about atoms are going to hold true for all types of atoms – or it isn’t much of a Law is it? Astrophysicists are used to big numbers, biophysicists need to stand up for little numbers. Chlorophyll is the green pigment that helps plants convert the sun’s energy into stored sugar – the reaction seems to involve quantum effects. (the-scientist.com)

Our health depends on our better understanding the biophysics of health. We are electrical beings with approximately 70% water content and both the electrons and protons of water molecules may be shared at quantum speed. Quantum motion could increase the speed of chemical reactions within our bodies, and increase the strength of effects similar to, (but not quite the same as), surface tension which is how water droplets can stay in a droplet form. Our health may depend on our internal structures retaining water molecules in an organized way, rather than becoming dehydrated or edematous (like swollen ankles during pregnancy).

An article with a review of current theories and research that support the idea of quantum effects in biology suggests that part of the controversy over the idea has to do with how the size of the effects could be large enough to help health, and that the mechanical, traditional theories also can explain how the body works, (the-scientist.com), – my suggestion that includes both of those points is redundancy of design – nature seems to support life by having a lot of work-arounds – a lot of ways to achieve a goal that supports life. Life is a miracle and it keeps going through a lot of breakdowns. Our bodies may be most efficient when quantum effects are possible and simply less efficient, possibly more prone to illness or dysfunction when quantum effects are disrupted or not possible for soe reason.

Math is fun, how about some more math?

  • Even if the quantum effects in human biology are small, -Qe-,
  • when you multiply that by every cell in the body, -c-, ~ 30-40 trillion cells (medicalnewstoday);
  • and every carbon bond broken in the Krebs Cycle, -cb- ~ 120 grams of glucose used daily by one nerve cell (which tend to use more than average, but let’s keep going), (nature.com), with 6 carbon bonds per molecule of glucose and 6.022 ×1023 molecules of glucose per mole, (socratic.org), and 180.156 grams of glucose/mole (let’s simplify this info ~ a half mole of glucose used per cell per day, so 90 grams of glucose would have 1/2(6.022 x 10 23rd) molecules of glucose which would each have 6 carbon bonds that might be affected by quantum physics during the Krebs/Citric Acid Cycle), (sciencetrends.com); {1/2(6.022 x 10 23rd)6} = 18.66 x 10 23rd
  • [within all of the energy producing mitochondria in each cell, -m- ~1000-2000-,]*we don’t need this part because the grams of glucose number was per cell so that is already including an estimate of the activity of all of the cell’s mitochondria.
  • then the amount of energy saved by quantum effects for a human body might become more significant ->
  • Qe * c * cb = energy savings due to Quantum effects multiplied times 35 trillion cells in a human body multiplied times 18.66 x 10 23rd glucose carbon bonds
  • = __tiny quantum effect energy savings times 35,000,000,000,000 times 1,866,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 = ___tiny quantum effect energy savings times (35 x 10 12th) times (18.66 x 10 23rd)
  • = ___tiny quantum effect energy savings times (653.1 x 10 35th).

Six with thirty seven zeros is a big number, so even if the quantum energy saves only a small amount of energy per carbon bond of glucose it adds up when it is multiplied by the carbon bonds of glucose used for a day’s energy needs within all of the cells in the body -> 65,310,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 carbon bonds of glucose energy used each day (roughly).

Math is fun, it has been 133 years since the 1887 ether experiment that was falsely claimed to have a zero result rather than smaller than expected result. How long will humanity and physicists take before recognizing that the universe is not an empty space and that the ether theory had to be modified but was on the right track?

Dielectric Orgone Blankets

Dielectric material is particularly good at supporting an electrostatic field while being a poor conductor of electricity – it won’t give you a static shock from the electrostatic field that it contains. Solid types of dielectric material include ceramic and porcelain and is commonly used as insulation between the plates of a capacitor. (WhatIsDielectricMaterial)

*Post initially published March 7, 2020 on earth-ocean.info.

Pete the cat likes the dielectric ‘orgone’ lap blanket – it is in a pillowcase to help keep it clean. Don’t ‘wash’ one of these blankets as the steel wool will rust if it gets wet.

Which for the non-electricians in the crowd (me) leads directly to the question What is a capacitor? ““a capacitor stores energy in the form of an electrostatic field between its plates.” (2) Thanks. It also has two terminals so you can tap into the stored electric field. The plates of a capacitor are electrically conductive wires or metal which can have a difference in charge.

A dielectric Orgone Blanket is somewhat like a capacitor in that it has two layers of electrically active steel wool separated by a dielectric layer of cotton or wool quilt batting but it is not connected to any other wiring. The steel wool layers are surrounded by another layer of dielectric batting and encased in cotton. The layers of dielectric cotton or wool support an electrostatic field, which will feel like warmth and possibly tingling sensations within yourself rather than being a static shock from the fabric. Exposure to the increased energy field by using the blanket regularly may have healing benefits, noted for wounds and prevention of common cold type of infections, but for some people caution may be needed.

The heart rate may become affected by the electrostatic field of the Orgone Blanket. Use for a half hour to an hour is recommended rather than use all night. Directions and safety guidance is available in the book: The Orgone Accumulator Handbook: Wilhelm Reich’s Life Energy Discoveries and Healing Tools for the 21st Century, with Construction Plans, (orgonelab.org).

Fluffiness is key for capturing an electrostatic field in pockets of air throughout the dielectric material. Ceramic seems solid yet it is full of tiny air bubbles throughout the clay. Wool and cotton quilt batting is a loose mesh of fibers, and steel wool is a loose mesh of steel wire which can be sharp. Caution, wear leather or canvas work gloves when handling the steel wool.

Fine steel wool, large roll purchased at an automotive supply store.

The supplies for a 24-inch square blanket include fine steel wool, but with no added chemical cleansers like in oven cleaning steel wool scrubbies. The spool of fine steel wool can be ordered from automotive supply companies.

Having a long quilting needle helps to add a few quilting type stiches through all of the layers after the pieces are cut and assembled.

A sturdy cotton muslin fabric cut in a rectangle that will be a couple inches larger than a 24-inch square doubled. About a yard and a half of fabric will be needed for the outer casing. Cotton quilt batting of a similar amount will be needed to make into three 24-inch squares. We are assembling a cheeseburger, except it will be fabric-cotton batting-steel wool-cotton batting-steel wool-fabric and the outside edges of the fabric will be folded over and sewn shut – pinned and machine sewn or handsewn.

This dielectric blanket was machine sewn around the edges after assembling the layers and hand stitching in a few spots with a quilting needle, to hold all of the layers together for long term stability. We are making a mini quilt, but with layers of metal to increase the electrical attraction and storage effect. The lap blanket warms as you use it and can become too hot and even irritating after longer use. It is meant to be used for about 30 minutes, like a heating pad.
Supplies – sturdy cotton or linen type organic fabric (not polyester), cotton or wool type organic batting (also not polyester, quilting supply or an old fluffy blanket), a generous amount of steel wool – it will be stretched, so it is less ‘yardage’ than the fabric.

Steps:

  • Put one layer of cotton batting on one half of the muslin rectangle so that you will be able to fold half the muslin over the top at the end and encase the final stack of layers of batting and steel wool with a seam allowance to spare. It will be a stack of three layers of cotton or wool batting with two layers of steel wool between them.
  • On the batting, place a 24-inch length of steel wool down the length of one side of the batting and then gently stretch out the mesh somewhat so it covers about eight inches instead of the compressed four-inch original size. This will cover one third of the square, repeat with two more 24-inch lengths of steel wool. The spool of steel wool in the image is about four inches wide and would make six or more lap blankets.
  • Cover the layer of stretched out pieces of steel wool with another 24-inch square of cotton batting. Repeat the step of adding three lengths of steel wool. Cover with the last 24-inch square of cotton batting.
  • Fold the muslin rectangle over the top with the layers of batting held in place by the fold. Gently fold the ends of fabric together into an enclosed seam/hem and pin in place. The sides will also need to be folded into an enclosed seam and pined in place. Pleating a little excess fabric at the corners gives a box corner that helps encase the fluffy stack. The end result will not be a flat envelope but a very short pillow or tall blanket.
  • Baste securely with quilt thread and/or finish the edges with a sewing machine.
  • Hand quilt through the entire stack using a long needle designed for doll-makers. Trying to keep it very loose quilting to retain the fluffiness, secure the stack with a stich every four to eight inches or so.
  • Use with a pillowcase ideally and keep it clean and dry. The steel wool will rust if it gets wet.
Dielectric lap blanket, simple handstiching to hold the edges, and then machine finished for sturdiness.

Ideally do not use dielectric Orgone Blankets near or store them near strong EMF emitting devices such as an internet modem, cell phone, or laptop. The goal is to increase time in a healing electric field, not in an electric field that might have negative effects on health. The dielectric blanket has a warming effect and may help increase blood flow like a normal heating pad, it just uses your own body heat as the electricity source – or a cat – or the energy of the ambient air conditions, or all three.

There would be more ether/orgone energy at high altitudes in open air – like in the mountain top retreat and less, possibly very little, in the enclosed air of the basement of a building near sea level.

I have found my Orgone blanket helpful for soothing a sore shoulder with a chronic muscle cramp, and for temporary relief of pain for a bruised hand and it seemed to speed healing of a bruise. I folded the blanket around the hand and lower arm for an hour or two, several days in a row – which was when the pain and inflammation was better. Anecdotal experience.

Dielectric blankets have been used with therapeutic massage in health clinics and with prenatal care by Wilhelm Reich’s daughter, Eva Reich, M.D. (4) and others.

Returning to the idea of a capacitor – the electrostatic field is being supported by the air and fiber weave of the batting layers which are also acting as insulation around the electrically active ~ ‘capacitor plates’ of the two steel wool layers. Holding the blanket is allowing your hand to be in the energy field – no terminals are needed for a gentle mingling of energy fields.

Plasma energy fields have been used effectively for helping with wound healing. (5) Plasma energy refers to a liquid like flow of energy throughout the area of the field, rather than referring to some liquid such as blood plasma. Plasma is the fourth state of matter, involving ionized gas instead of a solid, liquid, or gas.

“The fourth state of matter, plasma, consists of partially ionized, electrically neutral gas.” (5)

Electromagnetic fields (EMF) are involved in our health and brain activity at the microscopic level of microtubules, which may act like antenna in orienting and broadcasting electrical fields. (Previous post: 7) Specific types of EMF fields have also been used for healing purposes. (6) The type of EMF from electronic/internet devices and from high powered electric lines can be inflammatory.

Physics took a wrong turn in 1887; and the meaning of Null.

Experimental research protocol requires defining an expected result for an experiment in advance, called the hypothesis, in order to help reduce risk of bias or error. Null results would mean that the hypothesis as written had not occurred as the experimental result – making the experiment negative or null for that specific hypothesis statement. Null does not necessarily mean zero, however.

*Post originally published on earth-ocean.info, March 5, 2020.

In 1887 there were results reported as null for an experiment regarding the theory of ether which had been the prevailing idea regarding space – that there is a substance of some sort throughout space rather than it being empty and it was called ether or aether. The experimental hypothesis had predicted a large ether effect, a large drag occurring on a beam of light by this ether substance in the atmosphere, enough to effect the path of the rays of light by a predicted amount. The results were reported as Null by the academic community, correctly in some ways, because the drag effect the research team (Michelson-Morley) measured was not what they had predicted.

It was much smaller, a twentieth smaller – but it was not zero – their study did support the theory that space had some substance in it that would drag while flowing around a planet, moon, or star.

The idea at the time of the first of the Morley & Michelson experiments was that the substance was still and it was the planets that were spinning. The much smaller effect that was measured instead supports a theory later shown to be more accurate that the substance is slowing moving. It is likely the force of it flowing around things with cross currents providing force from two sides of astral objects that causes gravitational effects.

Our planet is orbiting the sun in an ellipse but it is more like a children’s Slinky toy, a long continuous spiral, then rotations of the hands on a old-fashioned clock. The sun and all of the planets are all spiraling in a group towards the same direction. The substance seems to move in spiral patterns similar to the way water looks in whirl pool eddies, or the sky in Vincent Van Gogh’s painting The Starry Night, (MoMA), – or spiral nebulae in outer space: (spiral nebulae images).

The Starry Night, by Vincent Van Gogh, via (x.com/MarioNawfal).

The substance that was known as ether has been measured in experiments that improved on the 1887 methods and modified the hypothesis to include movement of the ether. Other researchers unrelated to the original theory or experiment have also discovered anomalies that match the strength of the effect or the energy. One called it orgone and developed ways to affect the weather and increase rain or break up a larger storm system into a lower energy, more diffuse pattern, (Wilhelm Reich). Reducing desertification has also been shown to be possible with the low tech methods.

Long story short – there is a type of energy around everything that is not entropic – chaotic as expected of everything in nature – a tendency to decompose and become more disorganized instead of becoming more organized. The ether energy generally becomes more organized. It tends to coalesce like water molecules, and has an affinity for water. It is attracted to water, especially moving water, and that tendency was able to be used to modify the weather.

Desertification of land can be a result of the energy becoming non-flowing and unhealthy. It can be easily modified by simple to build tools but which need to be used with caution because weather modification can turn into storms, not just spring showers.

This is very exciting information but more people need to read and understand the implications – turns what we have been doing and believing on its head – topsy turvy, let’s start over again at Null, which doesn’t equal zero. For the skeptics and/or rocket fans in the room – the drag effect that was discovered and confirmed by later unrelated researchers is roughly equivalent to the amount of force it takes for a rocket to leave the planet’s atmosphere.

Here’s the book to read, The Dynamic Ether of Cosmic Space: Correcting a Major Error in Modern Science, by James DeMeo, (Amazon) then report back for a craft project next – a dielectric blanket (see this post, a DIY project that can soothe inflammation) – no plug-in outlet needed, because it gathers ambient energy from the air or from your body energy and can have healing effects.

This pdf of a really old book is free – it discusses ether theory as the current thing still. Einstein’s theory that space is empty came a few years after 1902. Ether theory had been predominant.

For something totally different – Christmas lectures from 1902, a 1923 4th Edition:

I started summarizing James DeMeo’s book in a series on Substack, this is the first post. Second post. Third post. Fourth post.

More recently, Vincent Van Gogh was in the news – the flow that he painted in The Starry Night, was found to accurately portray movement of air flow. Fifth post. Aether energy flows like water and is attracted to moving water and to iron/magnetic attracting metals. It is also attracted to tubes. Our blood has both flowing water and iron rich hemoglobin and travels in tubes – blood vessels.

Breakthrough Boss – an autoimmune and functional health success story.

Large size three ring binder full with a printed out Action Guide and green cardstock dividers between the modules.

*and a Black Friday special with a BIG discount for the first 7 people who respond.

Do you have a feeling that you are your own worst enemy when it comes to success at business or even just at living? Mindset work can help readjust negative attitudes we developed in childhood or learned from parents or society and replace them with positive mind talk that helps give you more confidence and frees up paralysis from feeling overwhelmed.

Tara Wagner, a business and mindset coach, is very organized with a good systems approach to business and life. Her primary goal is to help others work towards time and financial independence. She had autoimmune health issues and was forced to slow down her work pace. She is sharing what she learned about balancing work and selfcare and family time in online courses and free Youtube weekly videos.

  • Building a Business with Chronic Illness + Disabilities | What It’s Like, What Works For Me, (Youtube)
  • Tara has a Youtube channel with years of free video content that is quite useful and organized in topical series within playlists. See Tara Wagner Coaching on Youtube.

Routines for selfcare and work can save brain energy for more important tasks.

The more we routinize our habits in personal life or within a job, the more we can prevent brain fatigue. Every decision, even tiny ones like what to wear or make for breakfast, to pack a lunch or buy it?, etc., each is using some energy. It seems that we have a maximum capacity for best mental effort. Saving that level of cognitive skill for important work makes more sense than wasting it on thinking about whether to put on your shoes first or brush your teeth first.

Systemizing your routine or simply making a routine means doing things the same way or in a systematic way so that it can be done on autopilot, effortlessly like a choreographed dance routine that has nothing to do with CoV scamdemics.

Mindset: I get up, I get moving, I get active. (My motivating motto)

Seemlessly flow through a getting up, getting washed, dressed, breakfasted, supplemented, etc. all in routine way. Prepping for that may include setting up stations for this or that activity with all the needed things organized and easy to find. Linking supplements to meals as an example can help remember the supplements. I have been doing better with my leg swelling issues. After refilling my vitamin boxes a couple days ago, I have streamlined the complexity into: melatonin with breakfast, lunch, and dinner, along with one box of the supplements, and follow that with the niacin 15 minutes later/at end of meal. Bam, that is 9 different actions/supplement swallowing that are now linked to a meal instead of being 9 individual things to remember to do. And then I have one more box to take before bed.

Supplement inventory and weekly boxes

To make refilling the weekly boxes easier, I buy about 6 months worth of a supplement at a time and have a simple inventory log to see what I should rummage through my box of backup bottles for and what I need to add to a shopping list before another 3 weeks is up (I have 3 weekly boxes. I had four but one broke.) I tend to buy several things at a time and then they are running out at slightly different times so the cost is spread out over the year. But I am spending a few hundred dollars when I replace things.

The boxes are better than opening a bunch of bottles everyday – that is time consuming and too easy to put off.

Why not a one-a-day for me? – vitamin A. See this post with my daily supplement list: Substack.

A good one-a-day supplement would cover a lot of my list in the last post, but in needing to avoid vitamin A, and initially vitamin D and iodine, I have to avoid one-a-day supplements. My mother has been doing well (roughly) regaining a little function with the addition of a Thorne brand two-a-day powder in a capsule product. I open the capsule and stir the powder into a protein shake or bean soup puree.

  • Basic Nutrients 2/Day, Thorne, available on Fullscript, 60 capsules (one month supply) for $30 retail or $21 with my discount. You can sign up under my account to browse the catalog or pick through examples in protocols I have on the site. (us.fullscript.com/welcome/jdepew)

Since learning more about lymphedema I have added an iodine supplement, about 3-4 mg of a high dose powder capsule product. And it seems helpful and my thyroid is not going hyperthyroid it seems. Yeah! I also take vitamin D3 now but had avoided it for a while on the Marshall Protocol which got rid of a severe migraine problem for me.

Burnout Recovery

Burnout recovery is a big focus within Tara Wagner’s coaching as it is seen frequently with small business owners. Women with other caregiving roles can be at high risk for stress overload and females may have been raised with messaging of helping others more than focusing on their own self-care needs.

A free webinar is available by Tara Wagner, a business coach focused on helping female entrepreneurs breakthrough mental or health blocks to reaching their goals. The video includes useful tips about building a successful business and working through blocks if you’ve been stuck for a while at starting stages. The course the video is about goes into greater detail and has a lot of bonus material including the burnout recovery info. (https://jendepew–tarawagner.thrivecart.com/breakthrough-boss/6490939517905/) The free video ends with a pitch for a business course/website of business building and maintenance courses, with templates, pre-built spreadsheets and other benefits called Breakthrough Boss.

Thanks in advance if you do buy her Breakthrough Boss course though my affiliate link. Affiliate link: (jendepew–tarawagner.thrivecart.com/breakthrough-boss/) – clicking does take you to her site showing the special price $777. That is a lot of money but I paid a bit more than that and feel like it is a good deal. It has the small business information but also has Mindset, Imposter Syndrome, Burnout Recovery, Goal Setting, and other topics included. The online business building guidance has templates and how-to’s for organizing your work and life and recommended software/site subscriptions to use. This could be useful for any online business as systemization strategies can be modified for your own needs. She offers a seven day return policy in case you decide you don’t want to keep the course access.

The course/coaching might be most helpful for someone who feels like they are getting in their own way for whatever or an unknown reason. Her methods walk you through how to dig into your own crud to find out where you need to improve and what your goals may truly include if you really think about it rather than a vague, “I want to get rich or famous.” Her online course set-up is fun and easy to navigate and has lots of links to extra material on her YouTube channel or book recommendations. Purchase is for-life access rather than some limited time and there is a private Facebook community for questions.

An Action Guide to handwrite in is included with each section and it is doing the repetitive work/exercises that helps reprogram our habits in the way we choose to build them to be our best self – without shaming for slow days. Her strategy with autoimmune disease was to just accept that she needed to build a new job for herself that has flexible scheduling built into it and streamlined with automated computer strategies and hiring a team as needed.

To save time, work is needed to set up systems – and that takes time to do. So schedule it! Make time to learn helpful software and set up the data templates that fit your needs. “Success is scheduled.” – Tara Wagner, quoting someone maybe.

  • A recommended site: You Need A Budget – yeah, I do. (ynab.com) – fee service, $99/year or $14.99/month. The site says most users save money, an average of $600 by the second month.
  • Clickup.com is another recommendation. It has a free service, good for personal use, and low cost monthly fees get you more memory storage and may be needed for teams.
  • I use canva.com for graphics. It has a free service but I pay ~ 12.99/month for the added ability to custom change the size of graphics and maybe other perks. Or I pay $119.99/year. I do need a budget.

I have found the mindset work helpful and eventually printed out most of the guide. I will work through the business sections later. I am starting with the mindset and organization sections first. Printing double sided would be better, except the blank back page can be used to write more extended thoughts.

*Handwritten work seems to sink into our brains better than typing on a computer. She recommends physically writing and copying what you want on the computer later.

Breakthrough Boss Action Guide printed single sided – double sided would be better.

Use of essential oils for emotional support and for use with mindset adjusting practices is included. Linking aroma to mindset work, can then help later once the pathway is formed in the brain to quickstart a desired mood change. Link one scent to calming practice, and another to a get moving, “I got this”, confident mindset, and then when you need a boost, sniff the aroma for confidence, or if stressed, sniff the aroma you linked to calming affirmations. I have a post started with more info about essential oils. I also have a Lymphedema Protocol in the works which ended up being about Alzheimer’s Disease risk too – fluid excess in the brain is more damaging than fluid excess in our ankles and legs.

Tara’s free information on Youtube, and the info sales video have a lot of value for helping clarify goals even if you don’t buy anything. See Tara Wagner Coaching on Youtube. Readers who have been following my work for a while will be able to see if it helps or changes my writing here.

The Crappy Childhood Fairy also has quite a bit of free information available. She discusses how chronic trauma can negatively impact your work relationships due to trust issues or seeking approval neediness.

Looks helpful: Overcoming Clutter Paralysis: How to Get Unstuck, Angela Brown Cleaning, (youtube.com) — overwhelmed by stuff, and now also have the loss of a sibling and all the sibling’s stuff is now on top of her own excess stuff… Yes, I need this video too.

It is time to break my paralysis of overwhelm and disorganization in my real world and online work.
