remember learning about pavlov.s dog?
how he would call his dogs to eat by ringing a bell?
it was classical conditioning.
{no, i didn.t know that name just off the top of my head,
i actually had to google it}
anyway. every time pavlov would ring the bell, the dogs would salivate.
well, call me pavlov.s dog. why? you ask?
you may have read my post HERE on the amazing food we were spoiled with at brave girls camp. well those clever ladies came up with a beautiful idea to let everyone in the house know that food was ready to be enjoyed. instead of hollering or ringing an old cow bell, they played the most catchy, make ya wanna dance, can.t help but smile and sing along song i.ve ever heard. wherever we were, whatever we were doing at camp, when this song came on a pavlovian effect took place in every brave girl.s taste buds. it was the most heavenly sound i heard at camp {next to the sound of us all singing together...that was downright goosebumpy too}
i came to love this song, not only because it meant i was about to eat the most delicious comfort food my body has ever ingested, but also because the words of this song really rang true to my heart.
"everybody heals with love."
enough said.
apparently i sing this song a lot because i hear it being hummed down the hall by one of my little ones or blasted in my teenagers bedroom.
i even found it on the doodles of my 11 yr. old.s homework last week.
i do have to say that since returning from brave girls camp, i have an darn awful evil hunger that comes over me every time i hear ingrid.s voice. i wonder if pavlov.s dogs ever wished he never rang that very first bell?
nah! probably not!!!!
have the best day and cultivate letting the love love love begin!

How clever that is... playing music to announce dinner! I am going to have to try that at home!!! Wonder if that would somehow work for cleaning up bedrooms and putting away toys ?!?!
ReplyDeleteLove hearing about your Brave Girl adventures!!!
Happy Turkey Day! :) xoxox - Kim
So True Chrissy!!! The song makes my spirit dance, my tummy growl but fills my heart! Not sure how it's going to be received by my guys at Thanksgiving, but it's going to be dinner call!
ReplyDeleteLove and Miss you!
:) Love, Love, Love your post.... my hubby asked me if I was stressed the other day when we sat down to dinner. I said, "No!, Why did you ask me that?" He said, "You're humming that Love song again!"
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful song! I've never heard it before. I'll admit I'm pretty much a country music girl so i've never heard of ingrid, but i really like her sound! i think i just might have to learn this song on guitar! :-) hope you are well, sweet friend.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post Chrissy!! My girls sing this song every day as they are waving goodbye on the bus to me each morning...complete with heart pumps!!! (and it makes me want to run in and eat!) :o) xxoo

ReplyDeleteYes, isn't it funny how the mind and belly are connected? And the heart (which also happens to be physically located at the center)seems to make it all come together.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing this amazing and catchy song!!
ReplyDeleteJust downloaded this song to my iphone, it feels so happy! I'm in a super good mood today after making art all day and this song is the cherry on top!

This is one of the things you do the very best! SPREAD THE LOVE! love ya cutie pie
ReplyDeleteI feel like dogs like to think about food as much as they like to eat it, so probably not. ;)
ReplyDeleteHi Chrissy--Today this was the song my daughter and I danced to before she left for school. I checked the c.d. out at the library, because of your post here...Just like the other song you introduced us to "Stella The Artist" ; )
ReplyDeleteThanks for cultivating a song in my heart!
