March Meditation Challenge.

Two years ago I presented the TOTM! community to join me in a Meditation Challenge.  Last year I participated in Deepak Chopra's 21-Day Meditation Challenge which I much say was awesome!  Well ladies, we're doing it again!  And what's even more is this time Deepak Chopra is doing his 21-Day Meditation Challenge too!  Deepak Chopra's 21-Day Meditation Challenge is now called Oprah & Depak 21-Day Meditation Challenge Perfect Health.

So our TOTM! Meditation Challenge for March will also incorporate Oprah  & Deepak's 21-Day Meditation Challenge Perfect Health as well.

So here's the challenge
Starting today and for the next 29 days you will take 5-15 minutes out to meditate.  During your TOTM! you will meditate for a minimum of 15 minutes each day.  If your TOTM! falls between March 11 and March 31st you will follow Oprah & Deepak's 21-Day Meditation Challenge .  Sign up for  Oprah & Deepak's 21- Day Meditation Challenge TODAY!!  It's FREE to sign up.  SIGN UP HERE!

Not sure how to meditate?  Join us this Sunday at 5pm EST for TOTM! Tea Talk when we will have meditation expert Raychelle LeBlanc joining us to share meditation techniques.

Track your period and how you felt after meditation.  Did you feel more centered?  Did you experience less cramping?  Were you less irritable or moody?  Track not only your period but your emotions in the NEWEST TOTM! Time Of The Month! Ultimate Period Planner available on Amazon.com MARCH 5TH! Then send me an email to val@itsmytotm.com or message me here, on facebook.com/mytotm or twitter @mytotm  and HashTag #TOTMmeditation and say "I'm taking the challenge!"


At the end of the challenge I'm sure you all will feel a new sense of being.  I encourage you all to join me!
Until then...

"May every TOTM! be a So Happy one!"

You see the warnings on the side of tampon boxes.  It's on the insert in the boxes.  What am I referring to? Toxic Shock Syndrome.
So what exactly is Toxic Shock Syndrome?  And how does one contract it?  
Toxic Shock Syndrome sometimes referred to as TSS is a disease that's life threatening and has taken the lives of many women.
You can develop TSS when infected by a common bacteria that affects a part of the body and then releases toxins into the bloodstream.  The toxins attack the immune system and if not diagnosed early and treated, can be deadly.
