If this isn't allowed, I'll understand! I just thought some people might be interested in a new community I just created! It's called praying_rain and, as I'm sure you can guess, it's a community for Pray Rain Journaling :)

If it falls through and no one joins, that's fine. I just thought some people might enjoy it!
Make it a great day!

Does anyone know of a good self-tanner that isn't too orange? I'm super pale naturally and I'd like to give myself a little more color. My skin gets all blotchy and i look like death.

I'm getting it as a treat for myself because I've worked out for 4 hours (intense cardio) in the last 2 days. So happy about that :D

Turning to photography as a creative outlet during a valiant fight with breast cancer at age 34, renaissance10 survived and set up a photo contest to help raise funds for the Lavender Trust, a nonprofit that provides information and support to younger women with breast cancer. In the first two years, the competition brought in over £65,000 (that's $107,260.73 U.S.!), with entries from 130 countries last year. Renaissance10 recently joined LiveJournal to meet other passionate photographers and find supportive friends.

Hello fellow attractors!!

So I finally found the PERFECT program for me for creating vision boards on my macbook (Photo to Video for those who are curious) and I am super super excited to get started.

But I am struggling to find nice pictures that go with the theme of the Law of Attraction and what I want to create in my life.

So I'm just curious, does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can find pictures that are really related to attracting things? What I mean is, I want pictures that represent happiness and celebration and victory and wealth and abundance, etc.

Does anyone know if there is any free sites with pictures that are specifically related to the LOA and vision boards?

Thanks so much

no_no_, posting in live_the_secret @ 10:57 pm: Kundalini energy meets LOA
I recently finished a 40 day sadhana practice of nabhi kriya--a series of exercises designed to strengthen the third chakra, your core. As you gain core strength, your electromagnetic field and aura strengthen creating higher vibrations. In other words, it's the law of attraction in action. When you move through life emanating higher vibrations, you are in harmony with the universe. This got me to thinking about the books that have been written on LOA and how it is presented as a concept. Most books out there on the law of attraction tend to focus on mind over matter kind of exercises and whatnot to rise vibrational frequencies--vision boards, ask-believe-receive, careful wording and thought patterns and behaviors, etc. Are there any LOA books out there that focus on rising vibrational frequencies through core/electromagnetic field strengthening (I'm specifically thinking kundalini yoga kriyas and mantras)? When a person's vibration naturally rises, he/she will naturally align with the vibration of the universe--thought patterns and behaviors will naturally change because of the changed vibrational frequency. I personally find this application much easier than the mind over matter concept (which, don't get me wrong, works for many many people). Does anyone have any experience with this? Thoughts?

According to Dr. Oz, these are the symptoms of depression:

•Loss of interest in things you enjoy
•Changes in weight or appetite
•Change in sleeping patterns
•Feeling of sadness, guilt and hopelessness
•Making other people feel depressed and pointless (bringing other people down)

Many people in this community have probably experienced depression. Do you agree with this list of symptoms? Would you add or remove any? Have you ever experienced any of these (presumably yes, since this is an ED community)? What did you do to recover?
