Dr. Norris J. Chumley Satisfied Life

I’ve gotten hooked on Kirstie Alley’s Big Life!  Her show on A&E is actually quite fun and entertaining.  I didn’t ever think this would happen, but she’s a delight. The episode this week is about the hiring of a new intern to help her read scripts.  This has gotten the other young intern/apprentice, Kyle, a…

Every night, before I go to bed, I say the Lord’s Prayer, and I love it.  I get all happy at that glorious moment between consciousness and sleep.  Prayer is the bridge for me: taking me from on to off, in the hands of God at all times. I love love love to pray.  I…

I want you to be among the first to know.  I have been working on a documentary movie and book about ancient prayers, once secret — now being brought to the world.  It is called Mysteries of the Jesus Prayer and it is about how these prayers have come from the Apostles, to Egypt, Greece,…

Last week I wrote about a studied link between sugar and heart disease.  Your comments, as usual, were great.  I for one, am doing my best to not eat anything with added sugars, corn sweeteners, evaporated cane juice, brown sugar, raw sugar, dextrose, maltodextrin, sucrose, fructose, and on and on – all just sugar in…

I had a feeling that the American Idol results this week would bring a surprise.  Honestly, I thought it would be Michael (sadly referred to as “Big Mike”) as he is really talented, but not a “star” as Don L. agreed, “he is a good performer but is just not a star more of a…

Wow!  That’s all I can say about waiting for this week’s American Idol Results.  The 6 remaining contestants on American Idol were all excellent.  Who will it be who gets voted off? Who was YOUR favorite American Idol?  Crystal, Aaron, Lee, Michael, Siobhan, or Casey? If you’re a regular reader of my column, I think…

Here is a really great, and simple recipe for chicken.  It’s originally a Russian/Georgian/Turkish dish that I have modified a bit to be lower fat and calories.  Try it over some delicious risotto or a flavored rice-dish. Or it’s great with other vegetables like squash or cooked carrots, and mashed potatoes.Dr. Norris J. Chumley’s Plum…

Don’t let the start of a week get you down!  It is possible to get everything done, and to get what you need – perhaps a little inspiration in the form of uplifting quotes and validation can help. — Remember that there is a little piece of God deep inside all of us. –That Spirit,…

Tell the truth today, as much as possible, in every instance. Say what you’re really feeling and thinking — unless it would actually hurt someone for them to hear it. If you find it hard to reveal your true thoughts, at least start by being totally real to yourself. Tell yourself exactly what you think…

How can I stop myself from eating when I’m not hungry? It’s often hard to realize you may be eating for reasons besides a nutritional need! You may be simply just eating out of habit, boredom, or to distract from some emotion like a need for affection, or if you’re worried, upset, or angry. First,…
