OK, I know it’s new territory for me to post a recipe, but these muffins were THAT good! I have been trying to give up, or at least cut back on gluten, but not all gluten-free recipes are edible in my opinion. Sometimes gluten-free means dry and gross and who wants a dry and gross muffin? So last night I looked up vegan muffin recipes, then experimented with my own additions and subtractions to come up with this recipe.
Oh, and please don’t forget to tune in tomorrow to my weekly free broadcast on Spreecast! My friend and expert coach, Peg, will be with me to discuss transitioning into a vegetarian/vegan life. Peg is a long time vegan and certified nutrition specialist. Join us tomorrow, Thursday, July 17th, at 12:00 noon (eastern time) at: http://www.spreecast.com/events/how-to-become-a-vegetarian.html?share=facebook

Whatever you think about most, is what you worship. You can easily discover what other people worship by observing their words, behaviors, and actions. Do they work non stop, then talk non stop about work when they are “off?” Do they listen to music 24/7, and feel naked without their headphones? Do they obsess about their new boyfriend and constantly check his twitter and instagram for new updates? Are they on Facebook all the time and get irritated when they have to put the phone or tablet away? Does he say he’s really into you, then plays video games and ignores you?
These are all examples of worship. Where you put your time and attention tells everyone what you are about. Do you need to balance some of your activities? What if you put the same amount of time that you spend on Facebook into your relationship; would it change? What if you worked even half as much as you played video games or listened to music; would you have more money? What if you volunteered as much as you gossiped; would you feel more fulfilled?
People often get obsessive about what they are doing without even realizing it. Then they can become addicted to the feelings of importance, or connection. Be careful of people who say one thing, yet worship another. For example, a “friend” may say they hate drama, yet they are the first to share gossip. Or, someone might tell you that they rarely get on Facebook yet they have 100 posts per day! Look for signs of worship more than you listen to the words of lip service!
Be careful what YOU worship as well, it may lead you down a lonely road only to find that nobody is waiting for you at the end. Find your balance, spend time with people you love, do NO harm to others, fully participate in life and Live Inspired Now!

A cat that likes you will let you touch him. A cat that loves you will let you pet him. A cat that trusts you completely will lay on his back and let you rub his belly.
Now, apply this to relationships. Until you fully surrender and become completely vulnerable to another person, you are not fully committed to them. If you can’t fully surrender, or “show your belly,” then maybe you should reconsider whether or not you should be in that relationship.
Relationships don’t work for long when you have walls up. The greatest gift you can give to someone you love is gift of you! Get fully invested in your relationship, “show your belly,” play full out, enjoy the feelings of complete trust and honesty, and Live Inspired Now!

“Warning: Humor may be hazardous to your illness.” ~Ellie Katz
In my book; Live Inspired Now, I talk about the benefits of humor in your life. There are few things with greater benefit than laughing and finding humor in every situation. Humor has tremendous healing power too! Laughing is an instant cure for melancholy, and has long term side effects of joy, happiness, and feelings of wellness. Some people even state that they have cured very serious illnesses with humor!
Time to tickle your funny bone! Throw on some comedy, watch that one movie that “always cracks you up,” and get laughing! Feel better, be happy, laugh your illness, stress, or blues away, and Live Inspired Now!
