10 Things That Drain a Woman’s Energy 1. Gossip Talking badly about others may feel satisfying for a moment, but it drains your peace. Protect your energy by stepping away from conversations that are built on judging someone else’s life. 2. Neglecting your body A woman feels stronger when she treats her body with care. Rest, movement, good food, fresh air, and basic self-care are not vanity. They are part of feeling steady and alive. 3. Bottling up emotions You don’t have to pretend everything is fine. Pain, disappointment, anger, joy, and tenderness all need space. When a woman constantly hides what she feels, she slowly loses touch with herself. 4. Having no personal passion Every woman needs something that belongs only to her. A hobby, a creative outlet, a small dream, a quiet interest. Something that reminds her she is more than her responsibilities. 5. Doing nothing for too long Rest is important, but endless emptiness can become heavy. Even small actions—cleaning one drawer, …More

Cdl. Burke: Certainly the present situation does not constitute a state of emergency because in fact the idea behind that {state of emergency argument} is that the faithful who are in the SSPX can’t live their Catholic faith in the Church without having a church within the Church.

Cardinal Raymond Burke criticized at the consistory the pro-homosexual Final Report of the Synod’s Study Group No. 9. AdVaticanum.com reports (June 29) that he focused on its call to privilege the "experiences" of homosexuals.

He added that, by invoking a “paradigm shift,” the report takes a path divergent from the Church’s perennial moral teaching on the homosexual condition and corresponding acts. Furthermore, the Cardinal defended the Courage apostolate supporting chastity. He criticized the report for slandering such efforts and validating agendas “in open opposition to the traditional moral doctrine of the Church.” He concluded by invoking St John Paul II’s Veritatis Splendor in defence of immutable moral norms. #newsNxgddvhpmu
