Healthy New YOU! St. Pius X Church welcomes you, “to renew all things in Christ” Week 3
Spiritual Exercise The Litany of Humility
O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me. From the desire of being esteemed, Deliver me, Jesus.
From the desire of being loved... From the desire of being extolled ... From the desire of being honored ... From the desire of being praised ... From the desire of being preferred to others... From the desire of being consulted ... From the desire of being approved ...
From the fear of being humiliated ... From the fear of being despised... From the fear of suffering rebukes ... From the fear of being calumniated ... From the fear of being forgotten ... From the fear of being ridiculed ... From the fear of being wronged ... From the fear of being suspected ...
That others may be loved more than I, Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it. That others may be esteemed more than I ... That, in the opinion of the world, others may increase and I may decrease ... That others may be chosen and I set aside ... That others may be praised and I unnoticed ... That others may be preferred to me in everything... That others may become holier than I, provided that I may become as holy as I should… Amen.

25 Amazing Brain Health Tips
1. Behaviors you want to change must be practiced slowly, deliberately and repeatedly. As with learning any new skill, it takes time for the brain to develop new circuits. Be slow and patient when learning new things. 2. Seek pleasure in little things in life – take a walk, hold hands with your spouse, enjoy a good meal and share high points, notice when someone does something nice, like cleans the refrigerator at work. 3. Laugh at yourself – don’t take every negative thing that happens to you and in the world and internalize it. 4. After answering the phone, stand up and walk while you talk. 5. If you find yourself starting to argue, ask yourself, is this behavior getting me what I want? 6. When you get out of bed in the morning, open up the blinds to let the light in. Say … Today is going to be an amazing day!
7. Proper sleep is essential for Brain Health. 8. When you relapse or make a mistake with your health, instead of beating yourself up, ask yourself, What can I learn from my mistake? 9. When you are tempted to eat unhealthy foods, eat the healthy ones on your plate first, then decide if you are still hungry. 10. When you are dealing with someone who is stuck on a negative thought or arguing, ask them to go on a walk with you and do not bring up any charged topic for at least 10 minutes. 11. When you have thoughts going over and over in my head, write them down. Do a thought download or thought dump. This helps to get rid of those thoughts and helps you to see how you are thinking. 12. To help you make better behavioral choices, activate your prefrontal cortex. Allow the prefrontal cortex to step in and take charge by just asking your brain to define “What is it you want and why”.
