"God. Thank You. for Good Health... for Good Food... for Clean Water" My Mantra... I Say this While Breathing Deeply and Relaxing... a How to Guide to Finding Balance...

(Inhale) God... (Exhale)
(Inhale) Thank You... (Exhale)
(Inhale) for Good Health... (Exhale)
(Inhale) for Good Food... (Exhale)
(Inhale) for Clean Water... (Exhale)

Repeat... 

Of Course... This can Be Expanded to Many Things I'm Grateful For... In a Way, This is a Traditional Saying Called "Grace" done before meals... 

I Tried doing a Mantra Written in Sanskrit, a Language I Don't Speak and Cannot Understand but It Just Seemed WRONG... So I wrote this One In English... I Usually Repeat the "God, Thank You" Part before every Item I'm Grateful For... 

Another Statement I say While Breathing Deeply is: "My Mind is Completely Relaxed, My Body is Completely Relaxed. and I'm Going Deeper and Deeper into a Hypnotic Trance..."

I Just Watched a Positive Uplifting Movie Called "The Secret" - Well Worth Watching... and Applying it's Meaning to My Life... Can't Possibly Hurt... SO, I'll continue Eating Good Food, Taking the Medicine that my Doctor Prescribes... Reading, Writing and Pondering the Meaning of Life, The Universe and Everything!

What IF "The Secret" was True? What is the Effect of TV News Where The Entire Nation Focuses Our Attention on Horrible Things? Talking Heads Endlessly Screaming "Danger Danger" and Promoting ANGER?

God, Thank You. I Am Healthy. I Am Well... My Mantra... I Say this While Breathing Deeply and Relaxing...

The Secret is a 2006 Australian-American spirituality documentary consisting of a series of interviews designed to demonstrate the New Thought "law of attraction", the belief that everything one wants or needs can be satisfied by believing in an outcome, repeatedly thinking about it, and maintaining positive emotional states to "attract" the desired outcome.
The film and the subsequent publication of the book of the same name attracted interest from media figures such as Oprah WinfreyEllen DeGeneres and Larry King.

I've heard this same message often before... 
and then...
There's the Song: "You've got to accentuate the Positive, eliminate the Negative, Latch on to the Affirmative, Don't Mess With Mister In- Between..." Johnny Mercer... 

and then There is "The Balance" by the Moody Blues... It's the Answer to the Question of Balance on that Classic Sixties Record... 

After he had journeyed
And his feet were sore, he was tired
He came upon an orange grove
And he rested
And he lay in the cool
And while he rested, he took to himself an orange and tasted it
And it was good
And he felt the Earth to his spine and he asked
And he saw the tree above him
And the stars
And the veins in the leaf
And the light
And the balance
And he saw magnificent perfection
Whereon he thought of himself in balance
And he knew he was.
Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been.
Just open your heart and that's a start
And he thought of those he angered
For he was not a violent man
And he thought of those he hurt
For he was not a cruel man
And he thought of those he frightened
For he was not an evil man
And he understood, he understood himself
Upon this he saw that when he was of anger or knew hurt or felt fear
It was because he was not understanding
And he learned compassion
And with his eye of compassion
He saw his enemies like unto himself
And he learned love
Then he was answered
Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been.
Just open your heart and that's a start
Do you, do you, do you, do you realize?
Just open your eyes and realize the way it's always been
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Just open your mind and you will find the way it's always been.
Just open your heart
Just open your heart and that's a start...

Yes... Quite a lot of Wisdom there,

Speaking of Health:
I've heard so many people say that they don't get a flu shot because they rarely or never get the flu. I don't understand why people view this as a reason not to get the flu shot. I hardly ever get the flu either, but I get the flu shot every year because on the off chance that I DO get the flu, I want to do whatever I can to make sure I don't get extremely sick from it. I don't understand the logic of "I don't get the flu shot because I never get the flu." Do people say this about everything they get vaccinated against? "I never got a polio vaccine because I never get polio." "I never got a measles vaccine because I never get the measles." It's an illogical argument.

Of Course, Logic is not used by the Anti-Vax Crowd... They make decisions by following orders given by FOX NEWS and other QAnon FREAKS... and... THOSE PEOPLE DIED more frequently from COVID 19 than people that Got the Vaccine... WONDERFUL! We Certainly Don't Need PEOPLE LIKE THAT in the Future. Thank you for dying!

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.

History of the Vietnam War. 58,000 Americans Died for Nothing... Something They Don't Teach in School Now... "Too Controversial" -

During the 1950s Americans went into a Mad Panic about Communists taking over the world. We built thousands of Nuclear Missiles and Fallout Shelters. The US Congress had witch hunts (Joe McCarthy-HUAC) to expose "Commies" who worked in The Hollywood Movie business and blacklisted folksingers that were leading our young people astray with Labor Union Organizing songs.


During the height of this hysteria Vice President Richard Nixon went on Television and explained "The Domino Principle" while pointing to a map of Asia. His theory was...
