A project to raise the hopes and expectations of people in Champaign,
Illinois is being organized by the School of Metaphysics. "The Power
of Thought/The Power of the Mustard Seed" project plans to gather
people in Champaign's West Side Park at 6 PM. March 19 and April
21. Pam Blosser, an instructor at the school based in Urbana,
Illinois will encourage the group to project thoughts and
expectancies of prosperity and well-being. "We can make a difference
when we unite our minds and hearts for the highest good of all,"
Blosser said. Between the two park group sessions, those
participating will repeat a designated affirmation every day at
noon, wherever they are. People may repeat the affirmation wherever
and they wish and participants are welcome to join in at any time.

Stress management. Aromatherapy, Music therapy,
yoga, Holistic healing,
also called complementary and alternative medicine, is an approach
that looks to heal the mind, body and spirit collectively.
These are not words one would hear from the super conservative
Church of Latter Day Saints,
or Mormons. Well, hold on, they've gone holistic. From their website we quote, “While many people practice
holistic methods on their own, some medical professionals look to
holistic medicine as a better way to heal their patients. Glenda Christiaens, associate professor in the College of Nursing at
Brigham Young University, and president-elect for the American
Holistic Nurses Association, defined holistic nursing as "any type
of nursing that has healing the whole person as its goal." "To me,
it's when I have a client, and I don't treat them like they're a car
and I'm their mechanic," Christiaens said. "It's really a mind, body
[and] spirit approach. As if the mind, body and spirit are one, not
separate entities." Florence Nightingale was one of the first to
practice holistic nursing.

Even in tough economic times, it’s hard to give away $10,000 — in
pennies...one million of them. To commemorate the 200th anniversary of President Abraham
Lincoln’s birth in 1809 and the 100th anniversary of
the familiar
Lincoln cent first issued in 1909, rare coin dealer Paul Hollis of
Mandeville, Louisiana is giving away a million Lincoln cents in
public places throughout Louisiana. He and volunteers began handing
them out on Lincoln’s birthday, February 12, and will finish the
million coin giveaway on February 24 at the Argus Mardi Gras parade
in New Orleans. Hollis said he’s receiving several hundred phone
calls and e-mails every day with requests by the public for pennies.
But it’s been harder than anticipated to give away $10,000, and not
just because the million one-cent denomination coins weigh about
5,500 pounds. The approximately 2.7 tons of coins are being
given away by Hollis a handful-at-a-time with specially-made cloth
coin “purses” that are accompanied by an illustrated, educational
brochure he produced explaining the history of the Lincoln cent. How
many people can say they gave away ‘tons of money’ and really mean
it?” said Hollis
