Let the Universe Rush In
By Jessica Walker
I was very fortunate last week to be invited to an early preview of the movie Eat, Pray, Love: One Woman’s Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia
starring Julia Roberts due out August 13th. I will refrain from spewing the details but I do have to say… FINALLY A GREAT MOVIE! The casting was spot on. All the actors truly embodied their characters and the connection between each of them was effortless. The scenery was astonishing -- no better word than that -- each country was beautifully depicted. If I had a private jet at my disposal I would be writing this post from Bali right now.
I did not read the book but I heard from several ladies at the preview that the movie was actually better than the book. After further discussion with these ladies, I learned that if I had read the book I would have had a lot of my questions answered. For example, I was wondering the whole time how the heck did the author of the book, Elizabeth Gilbert, pay for all this traveling? Come to find out the answer is literally in the book.
I do feel the need to warn our male readers as this movie is totally a chick flick. But, if you are looking to score some brownie points, I highly recommend you tough it out. It will be worth it in the end, I promise!
To the ladies reading this, I am very confident that you will enjoy every minute of this flick. To me this movie was nourishment for the soul. It reminded me that the one constant relationship in life is the relationship with ourselves. If that relationship is broken, bruised or battered, we will be unable to work on any other relationship around us. Hopefully we can all learn to clear out our minds and open the doorway that will allow the universe to rush in.
Check out Eat, Pray, Love Movie Trailer! I would love to hear your thoughts. Stop back and leave me a comment after you watch it.

Study Says Great Romantic Comedies Can Damage Your Relationship
After reading the article,Romantic Comedies Can Damage Your Relationships, Study Says, we had to put in our two cents.
Our entire team agrees that we all really enjoy the warm, fuzzy feelings that we get after watching these types of movies. We also agreed that the average person can tell the difference between a picture perfect movie character and the complex individual sitting next to them. Think about it, we watch movies to ESCAPE reality and take a break from the daily humdrum. Who wants to watch Julia Roberts, Kate Hudson, Hugh Grant or Matthew McConaughey act out every day events, BORING!! We want stomach cramping laughter intertwined with mushy, teary moments followed by sexy, steamy scenes that stop just before the movie could be classified as “skinimax.”
Besides there are romantic comedies that are more realistic than others. For example, one of our favorite movies is When Harry Met Sally. This is a perfect example of a movie with average looking characters experiencing realistic roller coaster style relationships that we can all identify with, at least we can. It’s happy, sad, uncomfortable, there’s marriage, divorce, friendship, love, lust, sex, women’s lib and chauvinistic banter all wrapped up in one hell of a funny, feel good couple of hours.
Now if that negatively affects your relationship, as this article suggests, than there may be something going on inside of you that should be discussed with your partner. We suggest the next time you start having doubts about your partner after watching a movie, just say out loud Baby Fish Mouth, that gets us every time!

How To Apply The Laws Of Attraction To Online Dating
First, be truthful about yourself on your profile and you’ll attract someone with similar interests who will appreciate you for who YOU are.
Confidence is attractive, so think positive about yourself on your profile. We all have things about ourselves we want to improve upon but your profile should avoid negativism. Concentrate on what a great catch you are and even if you are incompatible at least you can enjoy yourself living in the present.
Second, focus on letting the relationship unfold naturally. Make sure, if you like the other person, you have a way to contact them to ensure some kind of future connection. Meanwhile continue to date and make a conscious effort to learn something new about each person you meet. People can be really interesting if you just give them a chance.
Third and most important, your first meeting should be in a public place. Then when you are comfortable plan an adventurous date. Be creative and have fun.
Fourth, talking about what you love and love to do will make you shine because that’s when you are at your best. Remember to also actively LISTEN, showing interest in your date and what makes them tick is a great way learn more about them.
Lastly, be proactive. Yes, by signing up on more than one dating site you’ll meet more people but you want to get out on that first date once you think there may be a mutual attraction. Sitting at home on the computer, waiting for serendipity to take over only brings happy endings in the movies. Being in control of your destiny is a self-confidence builder.
Now get out there and practice these positive laws of online dating attraction and have fun meeting new people!
5 Signs Your Man Is Cheating
I caught an episode of the Dr. Oz TV Show the other day and really felt a recap of the show was worth sharing.
Apparently there may be scientific reasons why men cheat. Did you know that Scientists in Sweden recently discovered about 40% of men have a specific gene that makes them twice as likely to have a troubled marriage as men without it? According to Psychologist and author of Emotional Infidelity: How to Affair-Proof Your Marriage and 10 Other Secrets to a Great Relationship
M. Gary Neuman, 90% of men cheat because they don’t feel appreciated at home. And 77% of men that cheat had a friend that cheats as well.
Although I was interested in learning about the 5 signs your man is cheating, I was fascinated with how to tell if someone is cheating by body language expert Janenne Driver.
5 Signs Your Man Is Cheating
1. Having less sex than usual
2. Avoiding contact with you
3. Criticizing you more
4. Starting fights
5. Away from home more
3 ways to find out if someone is cheating
1) Read body language. They deviate from a baseline set of traits – the pitch of voice, posture, how often eye contact is made, etc. when confronting your spouse about cheating. It’s a sign they are being untruthful.
2) Listen to their words. Something inside wants the truth out because when people lie they tend to use phrases that reveal the truth.
* Being truthful: “I know you don’t believe that I’m telling the truth.”
* Lying: “I know you think I’m lying.”
* “I would never cheat on you,” they’re dodging the question.
3) Body language. We face our belly button toward people we like. If you confront your spouse and notice they turn their midsection away from you (say, toward the door or the exit) it’s a sign they subconsciously want out of the situation. We lean in to situations we like. We lean back and move away from ones that displease us. If creating physical distance in the conversation, they are trying to create emotional distance on the topic.
Dr. Oz emphasizes yearly STD testing.
