Dive in! It can be that simple. Happiness is no great feat. It is a part of our nature. With the help of my friend and Chiropractor, Taylor Donovan, I have expanded on a few of his wonderful tips for happiness. It’s time for you to re-claim the peace and joy that has waited for you all along.
- 1. Stop trying to be perfect. Trying to be perfect makes us stiff. Accepting our imperfections is accepting the human condition, and allows us to accept others’. Start to delight in imperfections as a source of charm and fun!
- Be happy and satisfied with what you have. When we are constantly in wanting, we constantly spend our energy on chasing around our desires, and thus we can’t relax. We miss the beauty of the gifts already present in our lives, exchanging it for the promise that something else will make us happy and complete. Stop deluding yourself. You have enough. You are enough. Relax and you will see this. Relax and your happiness will flow. Share what you have and your happiness will multiply.
- Schedule some time for yourSelf. This is essential. While it is normal to exercise our minds and bodies for well-being, it is all-too-easy to postpone the activities that energize and strengthen our Spirit. Connecting to the Self within everyday enhances any efforts to improve the mind and body, as spiritual connection enhances overall well-being. Make time daily to meditate, pray, read inspiring books, or spend time in nature. This will invigorate your energy and purpose.
Think about these for a while. Please stay tuned for Part II, and tell us what you think!
