Today I filled in my weekly schedule for my two classes I'm taking - consumer behavior and digital photography. I watched a video on the tea ceremony for consumer behavior, then took a quiz on it. It was about how we perceive luxury.

Today I did my class forum posts in my two classes. I will definitely miss the forum aspect of the classes when they are over. My fellow students are great at examining the issues.

Just got all my classwork in for week 5 of 6 in digital photography and consumer behavior. One more week and this set is done.

Today my two classes are both complete, so I am very content! Just one more to go. I also read a blog post about how to handle fears of public speaking that was quite useful.

Today I learned more about Google+, and how it can be used to bring traffic to websites.

Hi Lisa,
As a licensed psychologist I am required to have 40 continuing education units every two years. I use several online CEU websites to accomplish this. I just started one on Mindfulness Psychology. When all is said and done, I will probably write an article on this topic.
Happy learning!

Ilyssa -

I apologize for not seeing this until now. I'm always eager to learn more about mindfulness! It's such a powerful topic.

Today I learned more about keratosis, which is when small, scabby areas form on your skin. I also learned more about cherry angiomas, which are tiny red dots that form on skin. I've had both of these for many years now, and the doctor kept saying they were nothing to worry about. It's true - but I also decided I should at least learn more about what my body is doing and why.

It turns out the cherry angiomas are said by many to be a sign that your body is trying to get bromide out of your system. Hmmmm Bromide is found in lots of processed foods. Apparently you can help clear the bromide by taking iodine. I may be willing to experiment on myself with healthy amounts of iodine - which after all you do need - and see what that does. They also say epson baths help with skin health, and that sounds good too!

Aha my current chewy vitamins do *not* have Iodine in them! My old Centrum *did*. So I need to get back onto those. I wonder if that is having an impact here. My body is missing something important.
