Thoughts on the New Moon

With a new moon cycle. It is time to start those projects you’ve been wanting to get done, try new things, new techniques and possibly even new ways of thinking.

Now is a good time to do an overlook of your life and get rid of anything that doesn’t belong. Start thinking about where you want the rest of your life to go and start doing the things to get you there. Keep positive thoughts and a positive outlook as you move forward and use the energy of this New Moon to help boost you to the new beginnings that you want/need in your life.

Many Blessings,

The Invisible

WP_20140925_007Invisible things have more to them than most things we see in the world.

You can see a hug, but the important part is feeling it.

You can see a two people meet for the first time, but what is important is the exchange of energy between them.

You can see a mother with her child, but the bond of love that can only be felt between them is everything.

You can see someone win at something they have been working toward for a long time, but the realization of success in that person is something they’ll always remember.

It’s not the things in life you can see, but the things you experience, the things you feel with your heart and soul, the things in life the effect your spirit.

Take another look at the world around you …  this time though, forget what you see and take in what you feel.

Many Blessings,

The Candle

There is a candle glowing inside me
Dare to open your eyes and take a peek
Come on, see what you can see
Is it strong or is it weak

 Sometimes I feel it wavering in the night
But still, I am lit from within by its light

Flickering away deep in my soul
This light tho aged, never grows old

Swaying in the breeze
Its flame never does seize

Though at times it seems to douse
The light is always there
Ready to roar like a lion or hide like the mouse

It burns steady, deep inside my soul
I’m sharing it with you now, so you’ll also know

This burning flame starts in my heart
But fills my whole being, my every part

Always there, ready to roar
Filling me with the ability to soar

Now its up to me from here on out
To hold that light in or let it shine, let it shout!

There is a candle inside me, glowing ever so bright
Do you dare take a peek
A quick glance at its light?

There is a candle inside me….
Burning bright every day and every night!

Come on take a look and you will see
That’s my light and I share it with thee.

Many Blessings,
Raventalker

The aMAZEing Corn Pillows

50lb bag of corn……………. $10

a few yards of fabric  ……….$15

Look on my sisters’ faces when they open the mail…. PRICELESS!

 

My dear sis Christy told all of us one night about a corn pillow she has and how wonderful it was for soothing all your aches and pains .. she swore she was gonna start making these aMAZEing pillows …. but that was months ago and no pillow from Christy yet…  hee hee…

sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo … one day after work .. I ran down to the fabric store .. purchased fabric… ran over to the Tractor Supply and purchased a 50 pound bag of corn  and got busy making pillows.. I made 22 pillows in all and boy do they smell good… I added a bit of lavender in them for an added bonus!

Christy and my other sisters had no idea what I was up to .. so popped them into the mail and waited .. hee hee .. .wish I could have seen their faces when they got the mail!!!

Corn pillows are used as heating pads and ice packs.. you can heat them or freeze them over and over again…. the corn holds cold and heat for a long time…..  plus you can carry them with you wherever you go

Just takes 1 minute in the microwave and the added lavender helps soothe the soul and calm the mind.

All you really need to make your own corn pillow is:

Fabric  & whole feed corn

After sewing and stuffing your pillow  you will need to microwave the pillows for 3 minutes  – 3 separate times to help remove moisture that may be left in the corn and to kill any insects or mold that may have gotten into the corn. Wrap pillows in paper towel to help absorb the moisture.

Here are some helpful tips below for using the pillows:

  • Heat corn pillow on high for 1 minute on paper towel in the microwave oven.
  • If the corn bag does not feel hot enough, cook for thirty seconds longer if needed. Do not overheat
  • Place the heating pad atop a sore muscle or wherever the heat is desired. Manipulate the bag occasionally to reposition the corn kernels, redistributing the heat within.
  • To use the corn heating pad as a cooling bag, simply place it in the freezer until cold. Place atop sore muscles as needed or on the forehead to treat a migraine headache..
  • Using two corn bags causes the bags to retain heat longer. Simply place one atop the other or next to the other, if used to warm a chilly bed.
  • Do not overcook the heating pad. Doing so may scald or burn the corn or even pop it. Do not use corn heating pads on infants or those who are unable to sense heat or burning..

Do not leave the microwave unattended while heating the corn bag.

Oh … just had to do these… added 4 more corn pillows to my collection.. these are long and slender for the neck and shoulders .. hee hee … love these things!

Many Blessings,
