"What do you do easily, naturally, effortlessly? True, powerful positions can be achieved through scarcity (the feeling that I am not enough or that I do not have enough), but they take one away from one's authenticity. What profits a man who has gained the whole world?"

"To share instead of struggle, to understand that work exists within the greater eco-context of relationship and community, to focus on making a contribution instead of eking our a living from the world, these are the transformational possibilities of the heart. The heart is the seat of prosperity, and here is the place where you learn the laws of giving and receiving, of creating prosperity instead of obsessing over profit, of developing win/win situations in all transactions with others."

I had the chance to talk with Rick Jarow recently. Do you know him?

He wrote an amazing new book called The Alchemy of Abundance. I think this book is way beyond "The Secret" and is also far more in alignment with spiritual truths.

There is a CD that comes with the book that could change your life! I have listened to so many meditation and visualization CDs and this one is up there in my top 2. Seriously.

If you are feeling stuck in any area of your life, this CD is for you.

How do you feel about your job and your work?

What would you do spontaneously - even if you weren't being paid for it?

How can your work change when you think of what you do as sharing?

Are you in alignment with your highest purpose?

How can you move from survival mode to creating the work you love?

These questions and more are discussed.

Catch this inspiring episode of Zentertainment Talk Radio featuring Rick Jarow!

There is alot of publicity swirling around the vaccine GARDASIL which is being used to prevent cervical cancer.

What do you think about it?

I have seen ads for it in so many magazine from O MAGAZINE to MORE and others.

The research I have done shows that is actually only protects a woman/young girl from a few strains of HPV which can cause cancer. Most of the strains of HPV clear up on their own, and/or are unaffected by this vaccine.

This is a copy of the letter I wrote to MORE MAGAZINE the other day after reading a very pro vaccine article in their new issue, Nov 2007.

Attn: Letter to the Editor at MORE Magazine regarding Nov 2007 issue from Jo Davidson

I don't expect magazines to give us the facts about drug companies, since most magazines these days are in part funded by them through advertising. However, I would hope that you might reconsider your viewpoint or at least share another perspective. I read your article on "Five reasons to get the HPV shot" and could not believe what I was reading.

According to Judicial Watch, in June of 2007, a 17 year old female was found unconscious after receiving her first dose of Gardasil. She subsequently died. In August of 2007, a healthy 13 year old was vaccinated with her first and second doses of Gardasil. She experienced paralysis from the chest down and as of now, has not recovered.

Washington DC-based Judicial watch has reported over 3000 adverse events involving Gardasil, including as many as 11 deaths, seizures, paralysis more. In a news release, Judicial Watch reported that "Of the 42 women who received the vaccine while pregnant, 18 experienced side effects ranging from spontaneous abortion to fetal abnormalities."

Even the prestigious New England Journal of Medicine has questioned its safety. In the February 28th issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, Dr. Eileen F. Dunne and her colleagues found that 90% of HPV infections clear up on their own. The study also found that of the HPV infections detected, only 3.4% were of the strains that Gardasil provides protection from.

This vaccine has not been tested for long term safety. Are women and now young girls suppose to offer themselves up as guinea pigs for drug companies? Merck is the company who covered up the fact that Vioxx increased the risk of cardiovascular disease. Thousands of deaths were allegedly caused by the painkiller Vioxx. They knew the dangers and hid the facts. Could it be that Merck is now trying to make money to cover their Vioxx losses by promoting this dangerous new vaccine?

Another interesting note is that all of the public studies of the drug were funded by the manufacturer. This alone is enough to make any of us pause.

As if that is not enough, Merck continued to supply the infant hepatitis B vaccine, which was contaminated with thimerosal, a mercury preservative, for two years after announcing that it had eliminated the toxin from the vaccine. Thimerosal is composed of 50% ethyl mercury, which is a neurotoxin. A memo written back in 1991 disclosed the fact that 6 month old children receiving their shots on schedule would be receiving a mercury dose nearly 87 times higher than guidelines for the maximum daity consumption of mercury from fish.

The Vaccine Injury Compensation Program received over 4,200 vaccine-related complaints by parents reporting their children experienced side effects such as autism or other neuro-developmental disorders from the mercury in vaccines.

We hear the buzz phrase "The War on Terror." The real war on terror is corporate greed. I worry that your magazine would promote and endorse a vaccine that is still unproven in the big picture, especially in light of the many reported side effects girls have had after taking this vaccine. If I had a child, I would not let Gardasil anywhere near her. Girls have died from this vaccine. Is this a risk you would take with your daughter?

Women were told that hormone replacement therapy (HRT) was safe, and look how well that turned out.

Getting the gardasil vaccine should be a choice that is made by informed people who have explored both sides of the issue.

If Merck is able to convince us that we all need the Gardasil vaccine to treat an illness that only 3700 people in the entire country will die from, they will make 3 billion dollars a year. The vaccines are not covered by most insurance companies.

It costs $360 or more for all three shots.

Hello and Happy Thanksgiving week!

As I sit here writing this, it is cold, wet and rainy outside. I am thinking of lighting a fire in the fireplace. I could use some warm apple cider....

1 gallon apple cider 4 whole cinnamon sticks 3 tsp brown sugar 2 whole cloves

Pour apple cider in crockpot, add spices and turn crockpot to low. Cider is ready when hot.

Notes: Enjoy as a warm drink for the holidays! ***********************************

This year has brought many things. Challenges, moves, transitions, learning, praying, struggling, and laughter too. Around Thanksgiving, we usually are encouraged to spend this time reflecting on all we are thankful for. Well, I know many of you are going through difficult challenges in your lives. Maybe being thankful feels tough.

Write down something that is really hard for you right now in your life. Write about the reasons it is hard, what it is like to face this thing. Let it all out.

Now take that list and find one small thing, one pearl of something good that has come out of that adversity. Write it down.

Believe me, I am not talking about erasing the challenge, diminishing the true tests it has brought or even denial. No this is not denial at all. But just look closely, and see if you notice one good thing that has come from something that feels very difficult.

Have you ever been somewhere and gotten lost, only to realize that you discovered something new and wonderful while you were lost? Maybe you stumbled upon a new restaurant, store, a hidden walkway, met a stranger who became a friend, or even discovered a hidden talent within yourself.

While there is great value in knowing where we are going, I think it is sometimes when we get lost that we find the true way.

What am I grateful for? That I am alive, for my wonderful husband, my family, my friends, my cat, my gorgeous piano, my computer, my camera, that I have food to eat, a roof over my head and a warm bed to sleep in, that I have clean water to drink and bathe in, that I have music and art, photography and creativity, passion, hope. I am grateful for having a car to drive, for where I live, for the choices I have. That I can walk and hear. And so much more...

What about you? What are you challenges? And what are you thankful for?

This week I wanted to air a show that is about harmony. I wanted to give you a head start on some new tools to work with for this coming year.

In this new episode of Zentertainment Talk Radio, you will learn about how feng shui can help you balance the energy in your home, bring you success at work, help to restore harmony in relationships and even sleep better. You will learn some tips on what you need to know before buying or renting a new home.

You can get the commercialized version of feng shui from many books and lectures, or listen to this episode of Zentertainment Talk Radio to hear and learn from a true feng shui master.

Born in Hong Kong, Pun Yin was taught Feng Shui by her father, Master Tin Sun from the age of ten. Master Tin Sun has studied and practiced Feng Shui for over fifty years, ten of which he apprenticed in a Chinese temple in Canton, China. The Tin Sun lineage, authentically passed down to Master Pun Yin, makes her one of the very few Feng Shui practitioners in the West trained in the classical traditions – requiring an apprenticeship of more than a decade.

Pun Yin has worked for Donald Trump, (She brought feng shui to one of his projects, and construction was completed one year ahead of schedule), The Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, The Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, and many others! Find out how you can meet Pun Yin and get a consultation for you or your family:

This episode is sponsored by one of my favorite places in NYC, the 1871 House B&B/Inn.

If you are looking for wonderful holiday gifts, consider a consultation with Pun Yin! If you happen to be visiting NYC, enjoy a stay at the 1871 House.... And lastly, you can now order my holiday CD "Merry Christmas & Happy New York!" Available on the store page at www.Zentertainment.org
