Originally Posted Dec. 29, 2008Hello, everyone! We at Yazzie & Co. hope that your holiday season is going extremely well. Since the end of the year is less than two weeks away, we think that having a New Year’s wedding is the perfect way to celebrate new possibilities in a way that will be symbolic and enjoyable to everyone involved. Exchanging heartfelt vows as your guests pledge to carry out their resolutions will inspire all to gain a new perspective on life and love together. So, how to put together this sensational celebration of new life on one of the most memorable occasions of the year? Read on for some great tips on how to pull off a fabulous New Year’s wedding!You can begin by thoroughly compiling your guest list. After narrowing it down to those that you’d love to share your big day with, send out your invitations at least three months in advance to allow your guests to mark their calendars for the special occasion. While almost any location can be transformed into a glamorous wedding setting, we think that a reception hall or a heated rooftop space would make for great picks for a New Year’s wedding. Whatever locale that you decide to choose, you should reserve the space for the night allow for an evening wedding and the customary ball-drop at midnight. Not only will your guests share in the love that the New Year promises, you’ll also be free to carry on throughout the night without having to acquiesce to the next wedding-party-in-waiting.A New Year’s wedding is also a great chance to go full-scale on the elegance and sophistication by adopting a glamorous black-tie theme. While many weddings have been planned as such on any day of the year, there’s something magical about the anticipation of a new beginning amid the glitz and style. You can demonstrate that by decorating your space with bold black, gorgeous gold, and splendid silver while including radiant red roses and wonderful white roses. The groom and his groomsmen will look splendid in debonair black tuxes, while the bride and her bridesmaids are guaranteed to glow in long satin gowns and glittering jewels. To cap off the overall cosmopolitan look of the evening, include tasty hors d'œuvres and sparkling gold wine as a part of your New Year’s wedding menu.In turn, you can present your guests with some of the most sumptuous party favors in honor of your new life together and the New Year. While small champagne bottles are always a winner, you can also be creative by gifting your guests with chocolate fortune cookies that include New Year’s wishes or little silver or gold bells that are emblazoned with your new married name and husband’s name to ring in the New Year. If you’d like to show your bridesmaids your gratitude, you definitely can’t go wrong with hooking them up with one our Yazzie & Co. bridal tees. One thing is for sure in having a New Year’s wedding: you’ll surely be blessed with a night to remember!Happy New Year,The Yazzie BloggerFor past blogs please visit us at http://yazzieco.blogspot.com/, Facebook or MyspaceRead more…

Out with the old and in with the new, a long lived tradition of many people across theworld. Every New Year many people start off with a resolution but even fewer gothrough with it. For some, the pressure of simply saying it gives them a feeling of dread.Why do that to yourself? Why not give yourself permission to succeed? So instead of along list of to-do’s, simply write yourself a note.You don’t have to start off with many notes. In fact give yourself permission to only havetwo or three notes at first. As you accomplish them, give yourself a new note. Make sureyou select the best stationary that you can afford at the time. As you grow, yourstationary may also reflect your growth.Sit down in a quite place and really think about what it is that you wish to accomplish. Besure to write down these important facts in the note:1. What to you wish to accomplish2. Why do you want to do this3. When is the accomplishment date4. Who will benefit from its completion5. Where will you be when it is doneEverything we do in life has a plan. Not doing anything with your life at all – that, is yourplan. If you are making $250,000 a year – that is your plan. No matter the day or time, besure that you are following a plan. So instead of making grand statements of what youwill do this year, start off with an achievable approach first. No more resolutions andlofty promises. Simply write a note to yourself. When you change your outlook andperception on life the things around you will reflect your positive affirmation and mentalattitude. You will change not only yourself but those around you.The way in which you go about life determines what you receive. Instead of saying, “Iwant to lose 20 pounds” without having a plan other than the phrase, “I will go on a diet”your success rate will be low. But stating that you will change your lifestyle by eatinghealthy foods and exercising by a certain date, you will get there. Maybe you wish tohave a make over. Select fashion that is appropriate for your body shape, age and place inlife. If you are striving to be an executive this year, dress the part. If you have a morelabor intensive job, get a more modern and fresh haircut.When you decide to act on a note to self, jot down the date you start, goal date andaccomplishment date in the corner as a visual. As you achieve each one, don’t throw itaway. Instead, keep it until the end of the year. From time to time, take a moment to lookat your notes and at all that you have accomplished. Being able to visualize youraccomplishments may be hard for some, so when you are able to look at your notes in aphysical form, you are now able to see what success looks like. When you are able to seewhat success looks like, you are able to see it more clearly each time you strive for the next goal.Be sure to reward yourself for each note completed. One way you can do this is to get acharm bracelet. Select a charm to add to the bracelet each time you are successful. Orderflowers for yourself and have them delivered to your job with a note that says I’m proudof you. This is another positive reaffirmation of your accomplishments.Your brain is your body’s computer. Inputting data is vital. The better the data, the betteryour reports and statistics will be. If you are putting in junk and visiting the wrongwebsite, don’t be surprised when you get a virus. Being around like-minded people isalso very important. If you have an issue with eating the proper foods, being aroundpeople who only eat junk food will not help you. Spending time with your friends wholove to eat fresh fruits and veggies, will give you a jump start on your note to self, eachtime. They will share with you bits of wisdom that they have gathered along the path ofhealthy eating, thus, changing your life, by touching those around them. There’s two oldexpression that come to mind – when you lay down with dogs you get flees and birds ofa feather flock together. Well, the same holds true in day-to-day life. Having a mentorand being around those that you wish to learn from is always a sign of a person whowishes to succeed.So as 2009 begins, begin your life on a positive note. Write down all the things that youare thankful for. You may be surprised at what you have accomplished already.

Love Mentalism: Be Love, Love Light (No pun intended!) by Ananda LeekeAcrylic painting - 2005The painting reflects what happens in Ananda's body when she surrendersto the divine flow of creative energy and allows it to move freely throughher seven chakras (energy centers) to create love as a way of beingin the universe. "Love Mentalism" is a phrase American entertainerStevie Wonder coined in the liner notes of his 1976classic album, Songs in the Key of Life.Happy New Year All!This afternoon I thought I would share some wisdom thoughts I've been marinating on as I move forward with my 2009 creative process. See below. This holiday season I learned how to surrender even more of my ego when I received comments about That Which Awakens Me, my poetic memoir manuscript, from my amazing team of editors. Based on their comments, I realized that I would have to take at least 60 more days to reorganize and prepare my manuscript for publication. This realization was a little challenging to accept because it meant that I would not meet my self-imposed December 31st deadline. When I finally let go and surrendered my need to control the deadline, I started to see that I am blessed to have an "elastic" publishing contract with iUniverse, Inc. that allows for deadline extensions.As I move forward in my editing process, I ask that you continue to surround me with your love and light as I prepare That Which Awakens Me for publication in Spring 2009. Thank you in advance! As always, thank you for stopping by to read my words. Be love, love light, and live as the spirit of life in 2009!Peace and Creativity,AnandaPS: Drop me a line and let me know how you spent New Year's Eve. I had planned to go to my yoga teacher Faith's Shakti Mind Body Studio for a celebration, but I was knocked out by my bronchitis. Thai food, movies, cough syrup, and ginger tea kept me company. Staying in last night really helped. I feel a lot better. So now I am headed out for New Year's Day lunch with my cousin/stylist Butterfly LP at the health bar in Results Gym. After lunch, I'm gonna spend some time in the gym doing some yoga, meditation, weights, and treadmill walking (got a brand new spanking pedometer to track my steps - yippee) while I read Shayne Lee's book, T.D. Jakes: America's New Preacher. What a juicy read! I am almost done with it! I'll probably need a long nap after my workout. A girl needs her sleep. That should recharge my battery and get me ready to complete my household chores and online updating work this evening. What a way to rock in the new year!Ananda's Favorite Wisdom Thoughts for Her 2009 Creative ProcessNote: Many of these wisdom thoughts will be included in That Which Awakens Me.1) Buddhist Wisdom:"Everything, including ourselves, depends on everything else." -Majjhima Nikaya2) Christian Wisdom from 1.1.09 Daily Word:"A new me is emerging this year, and today is the beginning of a journey of discovery. Along the way, I am discovering skills and strengths, pursuing dreams and desires, completing projects and goals. Everything old is in the past. No limiting conditions are left over. All has become new. Previously untried experiences stimulate my mind and creativity. This is a year of renewal of mind and body, of healing--physically and emotionally.I joyfully reunite with people and places that have held meaning in my life. New acquaintances enrich my everyday experiences and inspire my progress forward. I am not the same person I was last year or even yesterday. Through the renewing spirit of Christ within, I am a new creation.So if anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation: everything old has passed away; see, everything has become new!--2 Corinthians 5:17"3) Ancestor Wisdom:"No matter who you are , the spirits are around us all the time. Especially the old ones that know us and have gone on before --the ancestors." -Bessie Jones, American author"Our ancestors are an ever-widening circle of hope." -Toni Morrison, American author and Noble laureate4) Art Wisdom:"The true work of art is a creation not of the hands, but of the mind and soul of the artist." -Nancy Elizabeth Prophet, American sculptor"Art is not simply works of art; it is the spirit that knows beauty, that has music in its soul and the color of sunsets in its handkerchief, that can dance on a flaming world and make the world dance, too." -W.E.B. Du Bois, American author, educator, and activist"Art is insperable from life." -Paule Marshall, American author"All art is a kind of confession." -James Baldwin, American author and activist"The Lord puts pictures in my head and he means for me to paint them." -Clementine Hunter, American artist"Art is the soul of a people." -Romare Bearden, American artist"The ultimate in art is self-expression." -Duke Ellington, American composer and musician'The artist is the voice of the people." -Alice Walker, American author"All art is a communication of the artist's ideas, sounds, thoughts." -Lionel Hampton, American musician5) Creativity Wisdom:"This is one of the glories of man, the inventiveness of the human mind and the human spirit: whenever life doesn't seem to give an answer,we create one." -Lorraine Hansberry, American playwright"Often, what we write, the music we write, and the pictures we paint are dialogues with our deepest consciousness." -Marita Golden, American writer and educator"We can only reflect our own experience , but we would hope that we would be understood by others, universally beyond the source." -Jacob Lawrence, American painter"And so our mothers and grandmothers have, more often than not anonymously, handed on the creative spark, the seed of the flower they themselves never hoped to see." -Alice Walker, American author6) Soul Wisdom:"My soul has grown deep like the rivers." -Langston Hughes, American poet"The most sacred place isn't the church, the mosque, or the temple, it's the temple of the body. That's where the spirit lives." -Susan Taylor, American author"If you want to accomplish the the goals of your life, you have to begin with the spirit." -Oprah Winfrey, American entrepreneur and television personality"Take a day to heal from the lies you've told yourself and the ones that have been told to you." -Maya Angelou, American author and poet"If you don't live the only life you have, you won't live some other life, you won't live any life at all." -James Baldwin, American author and actvitst"Never be afraid to sit awhile and think." -Lorraine Hansberry, American playwright"Your world is as a big you make it." -Georgia Doulglas Johnson, American author"Find the good. It's all around you. Find it, showcase it, and you'll start believing in it." -Jesse Owens, American Olympic track star"Never give up and sit and grieve. Find another way." -Satchel Paige, American baseball star

7 REASONS TO OWN1. TAX BREAKS - The U.S. taxn code lets you deduct the interest you pay on your mortgage property taxes you pay, and some of the costs involved in buying your home.2.GAINS- Between 1998 and 2002, national home prices increased at an average of 5.4 percent annually. And whilel there's no guarantee of appreciation, a 2001 study of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS found that a typical homeowner has approximately $50,000.00 of unrealized gain in a home.3.EQUITY- Money paid for rent is money that you'll never see again, but mortgage payments let you build equity ownership interet in your home.4.SAVINGS- Building equity in your home is a ready-made savings plan. And when you sell, you can generally take up to $250,000 ($500,000 for a married couple) as gain without owing a federal income tax.5.PREDICTABLITY- Unlike rent, with the right mortgage your payments don't go up over the years so your housing costs may actually decline as you own the home longer. However, keep in mind that property taxes and insurance costs will rise.6.FREEDOM- The home is yours. You can decorate any way you want and be able to benefit from your investment for as long as you own the home7.STABILTY- Remaining in one neighborhood for several years gives you a chance to participate in community activities, lets you and your family establish lasting friendships, and offers your children the benefit of educational continuity.2009 the year of knowledge!!!!Share

Greetings Happy New Year!I've spent this week reflecting and evaluating the past year and thinking about the things I want to create during 2009. Even with the best intentions for the coming year, I know that this could again be one of the worst years for a lot of people as the world moves through the economic downturn.As many as 600000 people could lose their jobs in Britain next year,The number of people unable to cope with their levels of debt is expected to soar to record levels in 2009Our connectedness means that if one person is affected, we are all affected, so in awareness of that we must be prepared to think ahead and outside the box.Nobody knows if they will be the next one to lose their job or face insolvency. For most of us, our mindset in our present situation, does not contain the mindset that will provide a solution should we be affected by something unexpected.For 2009 to be one of our best years, despite being predicted as one of the worst in history, we will need to evolve and maintain a mindset which attains successful outcomes despite the odds. We must reinvent ourselves as people with the foresight to succeed no matter what."Success often comes to those who have the aptitude to see way down the road." Laing Burns, Jr.The good thing is, there is an energy of abundance and creation in the air! We've been feeling it for months and this is why despite everything we still feel excited about what the coming year has in store. This energy of increase is something we can all access if we learn how to use our intuition and stay focussed.So as a New Year eve message, this year I am sending you some guidance which will help you create 2009 as your best year ever. The articles below, written by PPSN members will help you overcome lack of focus, provide expert guidance, learn how to use your intuition, adopt a code for living, make powerful re-Solutions and decide what you will create in 2009.I've been blessed to connect with some amazing people and look forward to meeting and working with even more of you in the coming year.Enjoy!Blessed BeSophia Xxp.s January 09 Events to follow__________________________________The 7 Strategic Steps to Overcoming a Lack of Focus by Sophia BaileyIf everything is possible where do I start!With so much going on in our heads how can we possibly focus on something new?Without clarity, focus and discipline we are blinded to the many opportunities before us and held back from even the simplest forms of action. If there was ever a time in history where we had the opportunity to achieve our dreams, it is right now but without focus we are in very real danger of simply letting the opportunities pass us by.I put together these seven simple steps to overcoming a lack of focus, for anyone has so much on their mind they find they cant concentrate. If you are sleeping well, eating right and are in good physical health but lack of focus is still a problem for you, these 7 steps will go a long way. ..........

Hello I would like to say Happy Happy New Year to all you hard working ladies out there. Its about 14 mins til 2009. I want to say thanks to everyone for making me feel welcomed, and giving me all of their postive support. In the New Year its all about getting more wisdom and learning everything I possibly can to take me and my team to the next level. Its not all about us just making a quick buck or wasting other peoples time with some get rich quick scheme or some lame cashgifting program. I don't think so, that is not how we fly...we reach our goals by keeping it real and and learning as much as we possibly can, through books, cds, and weekly phone calls also meeting up with one another from time to time (8 min. til 2009). Im so happy and feel so blessed to be here in this industry for the New Year. Have a blessed New Year. (4mins til 2009)I have so much Im going to share with everyone and I wish you all the best for 2009.

Leave disease and illness in 2008, renew your mind daily on The Well-Side.For many years I suffered with several illnesses and was told that it was normal. Then I realized the importance of food and how it can heal the body. I released my ownership of disease and illness and decided to choose Wholeness. I can hear my body more clearly; I make better choices, and live with the respect of self and others.So I ask you, “What are you possessing?” On this last day of 2008 make the choice to renew your Total Body-Consciousness daily by making choices that add to you.You no longer have to live a life where food is your enemy.Tips to come to The Well-SideAche or pain - find the root cause of the issue before using medication to mask the symptom.Proactive - ask questions when you visit your care provider, know your body, never take possession of a diagnosis, seek options to make an informed choice to eradicate the cause of the illness.Self-Love – respect yourself enough to get the proper rest (no just sleeping), take time to spend alone to meditate/pray, be honest with yourself and others, know when and how to say “NO!”Leave the baggage behind – let go of foods you know are not working for you. Stop trying to convince yourself that this is the last time, find an alternative.Recreate – if you do not like your reflection change it. Stop receiving how others define you and create yourself for who you are (Be-come who you desire to BE). You make your own reality.Exercise – do it. Start small and increase but get started. Walk, jump rope, roller skate, run, play with your children, too many options for excuses.If you do not make these changes for yourself think of those who love and care for you, do it for them. Why shorten your life when you can live a long abundant life.“Total Body-Consciousness possess yours in 2009”Say this until you begin to live it “Wellness is Mine in 2009!”
