25 Tips, a GUEST POST by Chrissie Blaze
April 27th, 2008 by Rose Rosetree
Blog-Buddies, Chrissie Blaze has some wonderful tips to share. You can learn more about her books on spirituality and astrology at her website.
I first met Chrisse while I was reviewing books for Pathways Magazine. In came a copy of “Workout for the Soul.” At the time, I was jaded from receiving umpteen books on intuitive reading, spiritual reading, etc. Being able to read auras from photos, I did my usual reviewer’s scan of her author picture. Aura readings were (and continue to be) my standard way of telling if a writer really has the standing to write on a given topic).
Well, that got my attention. Chrissie’s aura just thrilled me. Read her and you’ll see why! She has gone on to write Prayer Power, one of my favorite spiritual books, and a number of books on astrology, as well. And now, here’s Chrissie’s GUEST POST.
25 TIPS FOR A BETTER LIFE
1. Take a walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti- depressant.
2. Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day. Buy a lock if you have to.
3. When you wake up the following statement, ‘My purpose for today is ________
4. Eat more foods that grow on trees and plants and eat less food that is manufactured in plants.
5. Drink green tea & water. Eat blueberries, wild Alaskan salmon, broccoli, almonds & walnuts.
6. Try to make at least three people smile each day.
7. Don’t waste energy on gossip, the past or negative thoughts…invest your energy in the positive present moment.

10. Life is too short to waste time hating anyone.

14. Don’t compare your life to others’. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

19. GOD heals almost everything.
20. However good or bad a situation is, it will change
21. Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

I must disclose that Chrissie happens to be a personal friend, but that does not in any way make her any less fantastic a person. If anything, I just get to experience that fantastic-ness more often and more personally because of our friendship.
What can I tell you about Chrissie? She is intelligent, kind, witty, extremely funny but not in a mean-spirited way, and deeply interested in and committed to spirituality and the advancement of humanity and human consciousness.
As for her knowledge of astrology, bar none. She practices an especially interesting form of astrology often referred to as “karmic” astrology - so what I love about the way she conveys astrology to you is not in the more conventional (but I believe more limited) way of telling you about you and the astrological trends at work in your chart because of the planetary configurations and transits that are present, she tells you what you are here to do - the lessons you are meant to learn, the obstacles that you are here to overcome, the contributions you are here to make - at a soul level. She puts the spirituality back into astrology.
Her website is a lot of fun, full of very interesting and thoughtful articles. Definitely worth a visit (or two)!
Loved this post - and it’s all true but some days very hard to put into practice.
Therein lies the challenge.
I will check Chrissie’s website out (thanks, Anita!) and see what’s brewing over there.
