French Basil Chicken Soup

 French Basil Chicken Soup

Slow Cooker Recipe 

Tried it 1/12/2024

12 Servings (about 2 ladles full)

Can partially be made ahead.

Nutrition Per Serving

Calories 153, Carbs 8g, Fiber 2g, Protein 18g, Fat 6g, Sat Fat 1g, Sodium 339mg, Cholesterol 69mg

Ingredients

2 Onions, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 t herbes de Provence
1/2 t salt
1/2 t cracked black peppercorns
1/2 c dry white wine (can sub more chicken broth)
1 can diced tomatoes with juice
1 c lower sodium chicken broth
1 can 14 oz artichoke hearts, drained, rinsed, and quartered
3 pounds skinless chicken thighs
2 cups diced red bell peppers
1/2 c finely chopped fresh basil

To assemble ahead, onions, garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, wine, tomatoes, chicken broth, and artichoke hearts in a gallon bag/container. Can freeze.

Put the chicken on the bottom of the Slow Cooker (I prefer to use a liner in mine to reduce clean up).

If prepared ahead, dump all the stuff on top of the chicken. 

If not prepared ahead, mix all the stuff together and then dump on top of the chicken.

Cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours.

Break up the chicken in the slow cooker, or take it out and chop or shred the chicken and return it to the pot.

Add the red bell pepper and the fresh basil. Cook on high for another 30 minutes, or until the peppers are tender.

NOTES:

I used a freezer bag of stir fry peppers and onions instead of the fresh ones. Then I didn't put the peppers in last. The peppers are mushy from being frozen.

I used half a big (29 oz) bottle of artichokes from Costo. I didn't rinse them, just pulled them out with a fork. This leaves a bit of oil on them and spices that go well with the soup. You could rinse them to reduce the fat.

It took about half of a fresh basil plant from Smith's produce section to get 1/2 cup of basil chopped. And by the time it's cooked up, it doesn't have that yummy fresh flavor. Could sub dried basil and omit the last 30 minutes of cooking, by cooking the peppers at the same time as everything else. The peppers will be mushy.

Healing Our Childhood Trauma

Healing Our Childhood Trauma:
A Journey to Empowerment and Inner Peace

Hey there, dear readers! Today, we're diving into a topic close to the heart – healing our childhood trauma and the amazing ways it can transform our lives as adults. Childhood memories often shape our experiences as grown-ups, and addressing those past wounds can pave the way for a brighter, more fulfilling future. So, let's embark on this healing journey together!

How Childhood Trauma Impacts Us as Adults

Remember those early years when we were curious little beings, learning about the world and ourselves? Well, sometimes, not all experiences were rosy. Childhood trauma can include a wide range of experiences, such as neglect, abuse, loss, or witnessing violence. These events can leave lasting imprints on our minds, affecting our emotional well-being and relationships in adulthood.

Breaking Free from the Past

Healing from childhood trauma isn't about erasing our past but acknowledging its impact on our present. Picture it like tidying up a cluttered room – we sort through our emotions, memories, and pain, keeping only what serves us well. Releasing the weight of unresolved traumas allows us to step into our true selves with greater authenticity.

How Healing Childhood Trauma Benefits Us as Adults

Emotional Liberation: As we heal our past wounds, we create space for emotional liberation. Letting go of old hurts grants us the freedom to experience joy, love, and compassion fully. No longer held captive by our past, we find emotional resilience and the capacity to handle life's challenges with grace.

Improved Relationships: Childhood trauma can influence how we interact with others. By healing, we develop healthier relationship patterns. We break free from negative cycles and create more meaningful connections with friends, family, and partners.

For example, a woman who experienced emotional neglect as a child, used to struggle with vulnerability in her relationships, after healing her childhood trauma through therapy and reiki, found the courage to open up and forge deeper connections with her loved ones.

Self-Discovery and Empowerment: Healing our childhood trauma can be a journey of self-discovery. We reconnect with our authentic selves and discover our true passions and strengths. This newfound self-awareness empowers us to pursue our dreams fearlessly.

Reduced Anxiety and Stress: Childhood trauma can often manifest as anxiety and stress in adulthood. Healing helps alleviate these burdens, promoting inner calmness and relaxation.

Example: A man, who suffered from panic attacks due to early trauma, found relief after incorporating reiki into his healing process. Reiki's gentle energy healing helped him release trapped emotions, easing his anxiety over time.

Reiki as a Tool for Healing

In our quest for healing, let's not forget the soothing power of reiki. This ancient Japanese energy healing practice works holistically, addressing the root causes of trauma. Through gentle touch or distance healing, reiki promotes relaxation, emotional balance, and clears energy blockages.

For example reiki practitioner Lisa used reiki to support individuals on their trauma healing journeys. One of her clients, Mark, struggled with severe anxiety related to a traumatic childhood event. Regular reiki sessions helped Mark release emotional tension, leading to significant reductions in his anxiety levels.

Final Thoughts

Healing our childhood trauma isn't always easy, but it's an essential step toward self-empowerment and growth. Embrace your journey with kindness and patience, knowing that you're making space for a more joyful and authentic life. Reiki can be a valuable tool to support you on this path, promoting inner peace and well-being. Remember, healing is possible, and you deserve to embrace your beautiful, unburdened self. You've got this! 💫

Let's Begin Our Healing Journey Together!

Are you ready to embark on a transformative journey of healing childhood trauma and embracing a brighter future as empowered adults? Here's your chance to take that first step towards emotional liberation and self-discovery:

1. Seek Support: Reach out to a licensed therapist or trauma-informed counselor who can guide you on your healing journey. Remember, you don't have to do this alone – a supportive professional can be a valuable ally in your healing process.

2. 
   

3. Explore Reiki: Consider trying reiki as a complementary tool for healing trauma. As a qualified reiki practitioner I can provide you with gentle energy healing and emotional support throughout your journey.

7. Connect with Others: Join support groups or online communities where you can connect with others who are on similar healing paths. Sharing experiences and supporting one another can be incredibly empowering.

Reiki for Spiritual Growth

 

Reiki for Spiritual Growth

The Journey of Reiki: Unveiling the Path to Spiritual Growth

In the labyrinthine passages of life, we often find ourselves seeking deeper meaning and purpose. Amidst the daily struggles and triumphs, we yearn to connect with our inner selves and the world beyond our immediate senses. This quest for spiritual growth has been a recurring theme throughout my life, and it was through the enlightening art of Reiki that I discovered a profound and transformative connection with my inner being.

Reiki, a Japanese healing technique based on the concept of channeling universal life energy, entered my life at a time when I felt spiritually lost. I was introduced to this ancient practice, promising a path to self-discovery and healing at a healing retreat. Feeling very lost I decided to embark on this journey, keeping an open mind and heart.

The initial encounter with Reiki was a revelation. As the healing energy flowed through me, I experienced a profound shift in my consciousness. It was as though dormant seeds of self-awareness were being tenderly nurtured, awakening my senses to the subtle rhythms of existence.

Throughout the course of my Reiki practice, I began to witness an intricate dance between the physical and metaphysical realms. It became evident that our bodies, minds, and spirits are intimately interconnected. Reiki serves as a bridge, uniting these facets into a harmonious whole. By addressing energy imbalances and blockages within us, it clears the path for spiritual growth to flourish.

One of the most remarkable aspects of Reiki is its ability to unveil the layers of emotional baggage we carry. As I delved deeper into my own being during Reiki sessions, I confronted suppressed emotions and unresolved traumas. Through this process of acknowledgment and release, I found a newfound sense of emotional freedom and resilience. It became evident that true spiritual growth could not occur without facing the shadows within and embracing all aspects of ourselves.

Reiki also kindled an extraordinary sense of empathy and connection with others. As I channeled healing energy, I realized that we are all interconnected, sharing the same universal life force. This awareness deepened my compassion and reinforced the importance of kindness and love in every interaction. Reiki taught me that our spiritual growth is intrinsically linked to the collective journey of humanity, and we play an active role in uplifting one another.

As I continued to walk the path of Reiki, its influence extended beyond the healing sessions and into my daily life. Mindfulness and gratitude became constant companions, guiding me to savor every moment and appreciate the beauty in even the simplest of things. The pursuit of material possessions and external validation lost its allure as I discovered that true fulfillment lay in the richness of spiritual connection and inner peace.

With each passing day, the transformative power of Reiki strengthened my belief that spirituality is not confined to religious doctrines but is a universal force that transcends boundaries. It instilled in me a profound reverence for the mysteries of existence and ignited a yearning to explore the depths of the spiritual realm.

Embrace Your Inner Journey

If you, too, yearn for a deeper connection with your inner self and the boundless universe, I implore you to explore the path of Reiki. It is not a mere remedy for physical ailments but a gateway to spiritual growth and self-realization. Through Reiki, you can uncover the hidden facets of your being, heal emotional wounds, and forge a powerful bond with the world around you.

Start your journey with an open heart and mind. Immerse yourself in the healing energy. Embrace the vulnerability of self-exploration, for it is through embracing our vulnerabilities that we discover our strengths.

May you find solace in the wisdom of Reiki, and may it illuminate your path towards spiritual growth and a more profound connection with the universe.

Lose 20 pounds in 6 months

Lose 20 pounds in 6 months.

That’s what the doctor told me to do.

I went in for a diabetic checkup.

My A1C is 5.7!

For those of you unfamiliar with what the hell that means, 5.6 or lower is not diabetic. I’m almost there!!!

My blood sugar is fairly stable with the medication and diet that I have been following.

The diet sucks!

No grains, no sugar, no high carb fruits or veggies or dairy products.

I eat a lot of meat, cheese, nuts, and low carb veggies. I eat some sugar free candy, not a lot cuz it can screw up my gut. I eat a little bit of berries. I have a little half and half in my chai tea.

I’ve done rather well for 4 months sticking to it.

But I’m really missing CARBS!!!

The doctor said I can have some carbs if 90% of the time I’m sticking to the low carb plan. YAY!!!

In 2022 I dropped 40 pounds using intuitive eating. That means eating what I want, when I want, how much I want, as long as I’m listening to my body. I think I’ll try to implement that with low carb eating.

I’ve been using Reiki on myself to help heal diabetes too.

I’ll also be using Reiki to help me lose weight.
