Dr. Norris J. Chumley Satisfied Life

Spring is almost here, and love is in the air!  Valentine’s Day is upon us, hooray! Valentine’s Day, as we know it, is a celebration of love.  Love is itself a celebration of others.  To love one another is to treasure, validate, hold dear, and to cherish as highly valuable and worthy. The name of…

I’m finding Janice Taylor and my online blog conversation very, very revealing!  Janice and I have gone in just four little days from hunger for weight loss, brownies, to diets, carbohydrates, to grandmothers and mothers, to hungry, starving people that need help, to cake and its colors.  Janice Taylor’s latest blog is about Harriet, her…

There are really no coincidences in life, God has everything planned, I’ve been told, and sometimes it seems true, like today. This morning I was reading Janice Taylor’s contribution to our online conversation and there was an ad on her blog page that read “End Hunger Now!”  I think it was for a charity.  It…

Do you forget from Who and where everything in life comes from?  It comes from God.  Do you forget the good things you have, and about the good things that you are?  You are very worthy of some recognition, being from God yourself! I recommend reminding yourself of Who you belong to, and believe in…

There’s a new study that came out about calorie restriction and improved memory recently in the National Academy of Sciences, take a look. This is a small study, only 50 men and women, all over 50, for only three months.  One group ate what they usually ate, but in smaller portions (about 30% less).  The…

Just as we humans are made up of a lot of different parts, our digestive system is too.   If we don’t use every part of ourselves, we short-change ourselves from experiences and opportunities.  Just like in digestion if we don’t allow each part of the process enough time, we short-change the process and end…

Yesterday I wrote about cutting your portion in half immediately when served at restaurants and taking it home.  Eat the remaining half very slowly, and enjoy every bite, along with the atmosphere and your companion’s company.  Then take the other half home and have it tomorrow for another meal.  Restaurant sizes are huge these days;…
