Detachment is neither kind or unkind.  It does not imply judgement or condemnation of the person or situation from which were are detaching.  Separating ourselves from the adverse effects of another person’s addictions or  behaviour can be a means of detaching: this does not necessarily require physical separation.  Detachment can help us look at our situations realistically and objectively. Detachment allows us to let go of our obsession with another’s behaviour and begin to lead happier and more manageable lives, lives with dignity and rights, lives guided by a power greater than ourselves.  We can still love the person without liking the behaviour. Do you suffer because of the actions or reactions of others? Do you allow yourself to be used or abused by others in the interest of another’s recovery? Do you do for others what they can do for themselves? Do you manipulate situations so others will eat, go to bed, get up, pay bills, not drink or behave as you see fit? Do you cover up for another’s mistakes or misdeeds? Do you create a crisis? Do you prevent a crisis if it is in the natural course of events? By learning to focus on ourselves, our attitudes and well-being improve.  We allow the people in our lives to experience the consequences of their own actions.

Wow can you believe Christmas is only twenty-five days away!  I have been going to more events then usual and sometimes there is liquor served and I just want to be able to have one or two glasses without worrying about driving.  I have been checking into the Vancouver Bus Service and it is very efficient and the drivers are pleasant and amazing.  I go onto to google maps find the buses or bus route and then I take my compass card and go.  I have been a bit nervous I explain to the bus driver I’m new at this tell them the address and they make sure I get the right bus and are very helpful and pleasant.  Also when I have taken the Canada Line or the Sky train I am nervous because there isn’t real live people directing you.  I just stop a young person, explain where I’m trying to go they have been amazing and helpful.  Yahoo Vancouver! So my question to you is.   ARE you willing to have different alternate transportation ways to get safely to your destination and back ? Think twice b-4 drinking and driving.  You can drink and have a safe fun time and the future will look rosy for everybody. Subscribe to my podcast and rate it a Number 5!

Are you committed to eating healthy.  Cook a healthy meal for 4 to 6 people every night for one week.  Freeze the extras in one serving portions, in good freezer bags writing what is in the bag and the date.  You will have enough variety and dinners for supper and lunch for a month.  Be Creative. One of my favourite recipes is roasted vegetables.  I substitute and add ore veggies,  I love beets, so I cut up a big beet or a few medium size beets.  I also love butter cup squash so I usually add that plus I love cauliflower, so I add a medium cauliflower as well.  I substitute coconut oil for olive oil so I melt the oil and let it cool off before adding to any recipe.  Get Creative.  I usually have a huge bowl of cut up vegetables and I cook them in a medium size casserole dish, there is often enough raw veg left over to cook them every few days so they are fresh.. I eat them for breakfast lunch and supper.  Just remember the avocado sauce is good and I only put a tablespoon on my vegetables and mix it around that is very satisfying and filling.   I eat the vegetables cold or hot on top of a bed of greens 1 red bell pepper, roughly chopped                 1 1lb butternut squash 1lb Brussels sprouts, hulled and halved          2 tsp. dried oregano 1 tsp. of salt and 1 tsp. black pepper               3 Tbsp.. of olive oil                and mixed greens   Avocado dressing 1 avocado.           1 small garlic clove (more if you like)         Juice of one lime    1/4 cup olive oil 1/2  tsp. of salt 1/4 tsp. of pepper Preparation * Preheat over to 400 F/200 C * In a large bowl, mix veg and herbs and oil ( I add 3 more tablespoons of oil because I use so many extra veg) I also add more oregano * Bake in a casserole dish with lid off * To make the dressing add all ingredients of avocado dressing into a blender or food processor and blend until the mixture is light and creamy. * To assemble the salad, place a handful of  greens on a plate and top with the roasted veggies.  Spoon on the Avocado Dressing and serve.
