Tuesday

What I learned this week

At 4am in the morning, when I get my best ideas! I decided I wanted to share what I learned every week and what I am grateful for. I feel this is such an important aspect of Living Smart! I will try to do this every week. Next year, I will be producing and hosting a lot more shows. I will have to get more organized and simplify my life to get things done, but I realize I must never forget what I am grateful for and what I learn on a daily basis.
This week I am grateful I have seen friends I have not seen in 11 years! and what I learned is that I better excercise every day so I can age gracefully!
The topics of the next season of Living Smart are very close to my heart. I will be covering what is in our food supply and what we need to be aware of when we choose what we eat. I will also be talking to a Harvard professor about the wisdom of our bodies and what it can teach us about life and movement. This is very important for those who love to dance! John Bradshaw will discuss moral intelligence and why it can make our lives more meaningful and purposeful. The popular Toltec author Don Miguel Ruiz will walk us through love relationships and what helps them fail or thrive. A "principled" principal explains how she took over her school and made sure the children excercised and ate correctly. She is now establishing her sugar free school idea in several school districts of Mississipi. A sociology professor will share the opportunities we can find in change and crisis. The award winning author, Chitra Divakaruni will share her knowledge of some of the world´s greatest poems and what each can teach us about life, love and every day challenges. A professional counselor will explain what parents need to know about choosing the right college for their children. This is essential for their success in life and academically. A retirement expert will prepare us for just that! an effective retirement. A jungian analyst will explain the true meaning of intimacy and why it is important to live a fuller life. A brain research scientist will explain how to keep our brains fit for life! A lecturer and author will share how to value and attract abundance and wealth and finally a consumer advocate will coach us on protecting our rights.

I have had a great time meeting all these Living Smart guests and I can assure you, they are passionate, wise and smart!
