Webster and Toews Falls Walk

In an effort to keep moving we have started to walk the Bruce Trail with our handy Bruce Trail Reference, Maps and Trail Guide, Edition 27.  Our first official trek (we did inadvertently do other parts of the Trail) was 2 weekends ago.  We drove down to Dundas to Websters Falls and parked the car, then loaded up and started our walk.  Toews Falls was really nice and there are lots of great views along the way.  Communing with nature always brings peace to my life.  I would say we walked at least 10 km but we do not at this time have a device to measure that, however the portion that was the actual Bruce Trail was only 1 km or so.  It takes a number of side trails to make a loop back to your vehicle sometimes and sometimes you even get off the side trail accidently which most would consider being lost.  Although it is for exercise waterfalls are something we enjoy so with good weather it is a wonderful way to spend the afternoon.  A beer along the way at the local pub and a picnic at the car at the end of the day makes it complete.  Stay Tuned for our next adventure on the Bruce Trail.

My Cup O Tea

Over the years I have become a fan of tea.  My favourites are non-caffeine.  Green Teas, herbal teas and rooibus.  Almost any loose leaf tea will do.  I once got chamomile tea from a friends parents and it was really just a whole baggie of chamomile flowers.....it was from a place in Sarnia, Ontario but I am not sure exactly where.  It just seems so much fresher when you can recognize it by sight.... In June while on vacation I found a tea store selling hand tied leaves.  What a fantastic aroma of jasmine.  It is the Madame Butterfly tea by Capital Teas (www.capitalteas.com).  It was very expensive and I just couldn't afford it but they certainly had lots of great teas. My most recent vacation in Florida found me in the Spice and Tea Exchange (www.spiceandtea.com) where I purchased a small bag of loose leaf hazelnut cookie tea.  Ceylon black base so not my usual herbal but wonderful smell and tastes very rich.  An enjoyable tea....

Energy Healing: The Essentials of Self Care This one resonated with me. I could hardly put it down and that is unusual for me with a book in this genre. It all started for me on page 10 with a great composite view of different energy anatomies that had been explained in the preceding pages. For me, it really brought together the Chinese medicine, Thai massage, chakras and aura system in relation to each other. The healing stories through opening our connections to the energy fields of the universe were motivating and interesting to read. The first exercise I tried was the first one in the book "toe tapping". It's a pretty simple exercise so following the instructions was easy. I only kept it up for about a week but I believe I did start to feel benefits. I like to meditate and I am always looking for new ideas. This book provided. I still want to try the metta meditation and many of the other meditations that are throughout the book. I still have a numb...
