Beatles Trivia! from "Little Known Facts About The Beatles" with Doug Nielson

Do you know the background story of the Beatles' first visit to America? The Beatles had already made it big in England in ’63, but were still unknown in the US.

Ed Sullivan was walking in the airport in the fall of ’63, where he heard all kinds of commotion. He didn’t know anything about the Beatles, but said “I need to meet the fellows that are responsible for the group.”

Ed Sullivan’s team met with Beatles manager Brian Epstein and made an arrangement to get The Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show in February of ‘64.

Did you know?Before their appearance on the Ed Sullivan show, Brian said “Hey, John and Paul. Write me a song that will make a great splash in the States.” John and Paul went and sat down at the piano side by side and wrote “I Wanna Hold Your Hand.”

NEW! CEU The ‘Body’ - In ancient Shamanic and Chinese medicine, the body is the vehicle for the ‘Mind’ and ‘Spirit’. It is one of the three ‘Glorious Treasures’ of the Golden Elixir - Body, Mind, and Spirit. The body vehicle is at risk for depreciation as well as empowerment.

The ancients knew this and developed sophisticated practices - Qigong, Yoga, meditation - to activate naturally occurring internal healing resources - The Golden Elixir - within. We will learn and practice elegant Mind-Body methods, developed through ancient sciences and traditions, to enable you to ‘cultivate’ the very powerful ‘Golden Elixir’ of longevity and immortality - to sustain vitality and wellbeing and reduce the risk for pain and disease.

The Plasticity of Human Aging NEW! Stanford University Professor Walter Bortz is a scientific expert on aging and longevity. At the age of 85, he is also a dedicated marathon runner who focuses on the importance of physical exercise.

The negative effects of aging are due to disuse rather than disease. As everything in the Universe ages, even stars, canyons, and Chevies, Dr. Bortz does not promise immortality - but does have a 99-step plan for keeping active physically, mentally and spiritually.

"Conquering EmotionalEating"with Petra Beumer 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. What is wrong with this picture? Why do people spend billions of dollars on diets that fail? Emotional Eating is not being addressed.

What is emotional eating? It’s when you find yourself looking for food or staring in the refrigerator and you’re not physically hungry.

To stop this cycle: Pause for a moment and think about what you really need. Are you angry? Are you hungry? Are you worried? Sit with that emotion for just a little bit. It takes a little bit of skill, but step back and pause.

During your pause, try taking a piece of paper and writing down ‘angry’ or ‘frustrated’ or whatever your emotion may be. Step away from the food. Try going outside to distract yourself - take a walk around the block and then come back and revisit your urge so you can really delay that craving, that urge for food. Just step back a second, pause, and write about it.

“Values & Emotions”with Rodger Sorrow

Learn to connect your values or needs with your emotions.

The relationship between values and emotions can help us get more of what we want when communicating with others.

• When your body values (or needs) food, you feel hungry. • When you feel sad or lonely, you want companionship or connection.

Making this connection empowers you to take action!

Making the connection in conversation:

“I’m feeling hungry. Let’s get something to eat. Does that work for you?”

What is really going on when a child has a tantrum? The culprit related to most tantrums is likely an accumulation of stress. When dealing with a child’s temper tantrum, the best thing to do is accept it. You can say “no” to their pleading, but say “yes” to their emotions. Stay with them. Stay connected.

Mary Brown gives us tips on safe driving in parking lots. Parking lots are dangerous places. To ensure safe driving – just slow down and be aware.

Some things to keep in mind when you are driving in a parking lot.

• Slow down! Don’t assume anyone in that parking lot is paying attention to you.

• Be aware of your surroundings – pay careful attention to pedestrians and other cars.
