Published on Leave a comment on If You Heard These 10 Phrases As A Child, You Were Raised By People Who Never Healed From Their Own Trauma

By Farley Ledgerwood

Is This You Or Your Parents? Healing From Traumas - It Is Possible!

Some wounds don’t end with the person who got hurt.

They get passed down—quietly, unconsciously—from parent to child. Not always through actions. Sometimes, it’s through words. Offhand phrases. Things said in anger or stress or fear. Words that, at the time, might have sounded like discipline or “tough love,” but left a mark that still lingers today.

I’ve heard these phrases in friends’ stories, in quiet confessions over coffee, and even from people who weren’t sure why certain memories still sting.

In most cases, the parents weren’t bad people. They were tired. Overwhelmed. Still hurting from things they never fully processed. And without realizing it, they handed some of that pain to the next generation.

Parents Need To Heal From Trauma
and So Do You

If you grew up hearing any of these phrases, you might have been raised by someone who never got the healing they needed. And that’s not about blame—it’s about understanding.

Because healing often begins with recognizing what we’ve absorbed—and deciding what we won’t pass on.

1. “Stop crying before I give you something to cry about”

It sends the message that your emotions are a threat.…

Published on Leave a comment on 10 Life Experiences That Have Quietly Made You A Better Person, Says Psychology

By Farley Ledgerwood

Life can be a wild ride, throwing experiences at you that reshape and redefine you in unexpected ways. And guess what? Many of these experiences, according to psychology, are quietly making you a better person.

Let’s get personal. We’ve all had moments that challenged us, made us grow, or changed our perspective.

But did you know that these very experiences might have been subtly improving you as a person? Now that’s food for thought!

Let’s dive in and explore ten life experiences that psychology says have been quietly transforming you into a better version of yourself.

And remember, it’s not about the big, monumental changes – sometimes it’s the quiet ones that make the loudest impact.

Wiser and Brighter through
Struggles and Triumphs

1) Embracing failure

Failure is a fact of life. It’s unavoidable. But how we react to failure is what truly defines us.

Psychologists have found that those who see failure as a learning opportunity, rather than a setback, exhibit higher levels of resilience and personal growth.

This doesn’t mean that failure doesn’t sting; but it’s about shifting perspective and seeing it as a stepping stone to success.…

DON'T YOU JUST HATE IT FOLKS, WHEN SO MANY OF OUR PRECIOUS TREES ARE CUT DOWN FOR ALL THE WASTE OF PAPER BAGS and SHOPPING BAGS DESTINED TO BE THROWN OUT; MILES OF UNESSESARY A3 BANK STATEMENTS (Only A4 is needed and some of those Pages are Mostly Blank) HUGE CARRY BAGS GIVEN BY WOMEN'S CLOTHING STORES FOR SMALL ITEMS OF CLOTHING; TONS OF AMAZON ITEMS STILL BEING PACKED IN CARTONS and BOXES INSTEAD OF SIMPLE BAGS THAT REQUIRE LESS PAPER PULP = LESS TREES; ETC, ETC. IT'S ABSOLUTELY OUTRAGEOUS, THAT IS! DON'T YOU THINK?

Unique Trees In State Forest Cut Down For
Dominos Pizzas - Reprehensible!

A Victorian Sawmill harvested wood from Endangered Mountain Ash Forests and sold it to Domino's as Woodchips to smoke meat for Pizzas. Imagine that?

The pizzas were marketed with Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification. However, an Investigation has now found Seven Breaches of FSC Standards.

When Domino's advertised its "smokehouse" pizzas in 2023, it trumpeted that the meat was smoked over timber logged from "Aussie Mountain ash".

It also advertised that the timber was certified as sustainable.

But what the advertising didn't promote was that Mountain Ash Forests are Critically Endangered, with Logging listed as one of the Key Processes threatening them.…

I Planted My Tomatoes Near 1 Flower That’s Like ‘Pure Gold’
To Grow The ‘Best Ever’ Fruit

By Angela Patrone, Senior Lifestyle Reporter
From Express UK

Tomatoes are something I love to grow every year, but it can be difficult to keep them healthy. Having heard many gardeners speak about the benefits of planting tomatoes with one particular flower, I thought I'd give it a go in my garden.

Growing Marigolds With Tomatoes Helps
(Image: Angela Patrone)

Growing tomatoes is something I find very rewarding, as it results in masses of fresh, nutritious fruits at the best of times that taste better than anything you can buy in the supermarkets. A few weeks ago, I planted some tomatoes alongside basil plants in hopes of a tastier harvest. The plant has already begun to fruit impressively and shows no signs of damage.

Eager to grow some more of this delicious fruit in my garden and with June being the last chance to plant tomatoes, I headed down to my local garden centre to get my hands on another one. However, this time I decided to pick up some marigolds too, as they are known to be one of the best companion plants for tomatoes, particularly when it comes to warding off pests.…

Published on Leave a comment on 9 Flowers You Can Grow To Ward Off Bugs And Other Pests

Having bugs in and around your home, garden, patio, or yard can be frustrating. Not to mention, they're especially hard to get rid of. While powerful, inexpensive insecticides can help eliminate these nuisances, they can also introduce harmful chemicals into your living space. 

Looking for a natural way to get rid of bugs and other pesky critters? Then know that many flowers offer protection against them. According to the Malaria Journal, certain plants and flowers contain compounds that insects find toxic, resulting in an effective repellent that can keep them out of your garden or home. Ultimately, this will mean seeing fewer pests, such as mosquitos, fleas, cockroaches, flies, and more, all year long.

Purple Onion Flowers - Wards Off Bugs

So, if you want to enjoy your time indoors or outdoors without annoying insects, there are plenty of blossoms out there that may be the solution you're looking for. Whether you're a novice or someone with a green thumb, you'll be sure to find the right bug-repelling flowering plant in this comprehensive guide.

Published on Leave a comment on Push to BAN Gazania daisies after New Research finds them Harmful to Australian Environment

AND SHAMEFUL BUNNINGS!

‘They are Moving into Grain Production Areas,
Choking Out Crops and Costing Farmers.’
From 7 NEWS

WHO WOULD HAVE GUESSED?

An ornamental flowering plant sold at Bunnings and Other Nurseries
has been labelled dangerous to Australia’s Environment.

Do You Know This Flower?

Gazania daisies, bright coloured flowers native to South Africa, are a
“Highly-Invasive Plant”, a new study by La Trobe University said.

According to the Research, Gazania Seeds show a High Tolerance for a wide range of environmental conditions, enabling them to Spread More Aggressively and Destructively than previously expected.

As a result, researchers warn that the plant can become a problematic weed all year-round across much of Australia, potentially leading to widespread infestations.

Gazania has already been found growing in a range of habitats, from coastal sand dunes and stream banks to wastelands, open grasslands, roadsides and cultivated or irrigated sites in southern and parts of Western Australia.

“These preliminary findings suggest This Weed has the potential to develop a significant seedbank in Australian no-till grain production systems,”
the report said.

Invasive Species Council Advocacy manager Imogen Ebsworth has called for a National Ban on the plant, expanding from the current restrictions in South Australia.…

Published on Leave a comment on Try Avoiding Medical Visits As Much As Possible – Some Truths You Should Know

Janet Vargas - Independent Natural Health Researcher 30+ Years

Hi Friends, because I have been engaged in Natural Health Research for 30+ Years Independent and there is Considerable Interest in the Health Categories and Posts in my Blog here on Ours Australia, I have decided to start a few Pages at the top of your Screen called Website Recommendations to direct you to some Good Reading by Noteworthy Professionals and Natural Health Advocates who are a Lot More Interested in Our Health and Our Children's than most Medical Practitioners are these days with their "Hypocritical Oath" (Pun Intended) because Greedy Big Pharma runs the Medical Profession and Incentivises their Practitioners quite heavily.

So you should all know that it is Not a Health Profession actually, it is a Sickness Industry. They Profit far more if you are not well. Sorry to inform you but many People I meet in Shopping Centres when out and about (I like to have micro-conversations with) are becoming pretty aware of that since the Pandemic.

Some also suspect the Medical Industry and Food Industry are Closely Affiliated and to answer their Question (and yours maybe) that is absolutely True.…

NOTE: THIS ARTICLE INCLUDES THREE SO-CALLED SAFE SWEETENERS, SO DON'T MISS THEM. RIGHT? I REALLY DON'T LIKE IT WHEN PEOPLE ARE JUPED!

Published on Leave a comment on Medical Profession: It Is A Sickness Industry NOT A Health Profession – Please Know The Difference!

Janet Vargas - Natural Health Researcher 30+ Years

They run everything as a SYSTEM - they have Streamlined Everything to give as little Time and Attention as Possible..........they are doing Exactly that.

It's Pure Greed, and so maddening for many People. It is often dangerous too because wrong decisions can be made in those short few minutes - by the "Practitioner" or "Patient" what we accept.

It is not Respectful, Courteous or Wise to pass People through like products on a Conveyer Belt in a place of Manufacture. Yes, it's Insensitive and Mercinary - this SYSTEM and we can do much better for ourselves - believe me - and most of us don't Stop and think "there are Options" but some People have, and are happier for having made that decision.

I generally don't go to the Medical Profession if there's a Health issue of some kind - being a Natural Health Researcher, I can address things myself.

Two Caring Medicos in a Video I watched on YouTube this week, Dr Mike and Dr Marty Makary, are Waking up to some things while still blind about other things.

They have demonstrated to me in the first 23 Mins of a 2 Hour Video while trying to Expose and Alert People of things in the Medical and Food Industries for our Health and Protection and being Activists for Change.…
