No Boundaries

No workplace is perfect. But depending on what is happening, a workplace can easily become a nightmare or can be "not that bad" to put up with. Little, teeny-tiny things or our co-workers may get on our nerves day after day. From the oddest one to the most innocent one, here is a list of annoying things happening at workplaces: Too many people in a tiny office Desks are put too close to each other. There is no enough space or privacy. You can't hear the other person on the phone because there is too much noise in the office. Sometimes the other person can't hear you either.  You are forced to be best friends with a bunch of people. You even did not get this close with your real best friend. And, this is your life every single day. Curious co-workers They want to know everything about you. They ask such private questions about your age, your marital status, how much money you make, where you live, how much your rent or mortgage is and why you d

Now it is time to do another ritual for the opposite. This time, we will use the fresh energy of the New Moon to get what we want. The New Moon is the start of a new and fresh cycle. It represents birth and new beginnings, and these energies are what we need to "seed" (let the universe know about) our goal or intention to make our wishes and desires come true. As long as we know what we want and dedicated to believe that our wishes will come true, we are ready to start our simple New Moon ritual: - Just like I described in my previous article, A Simple Ritual for the Full Moon to Let Go of Anything Unwanted , you should start your ritual AFTER the New Moon rises. You can find out about the moon calendar in your location by searching the I

Carob is a fruit that has been around for 5000 years. However, it is not very well known in some countries. Carob is one of the best foods with incredibly amazing health benefits. It is so good that it deserves to be called “magic food.” Photo courtesy: Wikimedia Commons What is all the fuss about carob? Let’s start with a little information on it. In Latin , Carob’s name is ceratonia siliqua L . In English, carob is also known as St. John’s bread and locust bean . It is mostly grown in some Mediterranean countries, especially Italy, Spain, Cyprus, Turkey, Lebanon and Greece. The amount of fat in carob is only 1%.

Briefly, the full moon represents the end of a cycle. This is a great time to perform a simple ritual to end anything that you don't want in your life.  Here we go: 1. The very first thing is to make sure to do this AFTER the full moon rises. So, you may want to do a little search on Google and put a phrase like "moon phase in (the name of the city or state you live)." If the moon rises at 7:21pm on September 6, for example, and you start your ritual before 7:21pm, it may not be as effective as expected. Just do your homework first to stay on the safe side. 2. The next thing is to get a clean piece of paper and a pencil.
