  • (RERUN from 11/25/23) HOLIDAY TRADITIONS and RITUALS

    (RERUN from 11/25/23) HOLIDAY TRADITIONS and RITUALS
    Nov 29 2025
    The Eyre's having been vacationing in Morocco for the holiday season, so we are revisiting their thoughts from November 2023 on Thanksgiving and Christmas! "This episode (despite the fact that Richard has almost lost his voice from the Thanksgiving revelry) is about Thanksgiving and Christmas family traditions and how these rituals are more than fun little habits--they are the glue that holds families together, and observing them and making a big deal of them is important. And its not a bad idea to modify and create new traditions that teach the values we want our kids to have."

  • GRATITUDE as an IGNITER OF JOY, LOVE, PEACE, and BEAUTY

    GRATITUDE as an IGNITER OF JOY, LOVE, PEACE, and BEAUTY
    Nov 15 2025
    In this episode, Richard and Linda suggest that becoming deliberately and intentionally more thankful (the opposite of "taking for granted") is more than a path to happiness, it IS happiness in its most obtainable form. They share their own history of gratitude journals and thanks-giving traditions and challenge us (and themselves) to center our Thanksgiving holiday around a lasting gratitude list.

    How to LIVE THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE EMOTIONALLY
    Nov 8 2025
    As November begins, the Eyres introduce the month's theme of a higher way to live emotionally with a question: How can we FEEL MORE of four things: Joy, Love, Peace, and Beauty? Are there things we can do, ways we can think, and attitudes we can cultivate that increase and deepen these four emotions? They suggest that we each search for methods to do so during this Thanksgiving month.

  • (RERUN 11/02/24) 3-Letter Lessons, ALM and WIN

    (RERUN 11/02/24) 3-Letter Lessons, ALM and WIN
    Nov 1 2025
    Due to Halloween, grandkids, and travel, the Eyres didn't record this week and asked us to pick a favorite re-run...which we did. Richard and Linda will be back live next week with the latest in their How To Live series. "Casting from Las Vegas today, the Eyres finish a discussion they started last episode about the 3-letter lesson ALM referring to the acts of mercy and compassion that Jesus called alms. An act of service or lifting is called an "almdeed" in the New Testament. They then juxtaposition that word with the 3-letter lesson WIN which is a blessing when we make it a win-win, and a curse when we make it a win-lose."

  • "SYNERGICITY" as the ALTERNATIVE MINDSET to INDEPENDENCE

    "SYNERGICITY" as the ALTERNATIVE MINDSET to INDEPENDENCE
    Oct 25 2025
    Today the Eyres suggest that "Independence" is a mindset for the first half of life which proves, in the second half and in the spiritual and emotional and social sense to be a lie. We are dependent on God and interdependent on strangers, as well as on those we love. An alternative mindset called "Synergicity" is suggested and metaphors and examples are given.
