First Step to Happiness

I was talking so much about how to get to a better feeling place with all kinds of methods.
Today I'd like to point out one basic step.

To be able to feel good, you need to take care of you body's well-being first.

To be able to work on you life-improvement, You need to have enough sleep at first.

Be rested when you play with those exercises I mentioned.
The key to better-feeling life is to start on a positive note in knowing you can tune into better feeling place intentionally.

You will have a better success and more fun, when you approach any task with a cheerful attitude.

Try this: Before you start with any task where you need to "motivate" yourself; take few moments to get your mind into a focus on a pleasant thought.

You can just look around and focus on objects you like thinking " I like  ......(this).....I like ..(this).........soon your energy will be higher and you may say "I really like...((this)...."

If your work does not need your focus, you can do this exercise during a routine task like folding the laundry or doing the dishes etc.
The positive spin on your thoughts can be something you imagine to have.

Be aware how your feeling changes and if a though comes up that feels less good than the previous, then replace it with another better feeling though.

Enjoy the Holidays and use the relaxed time to play with your ability totune-up your mode to even a better feeling one.
Have Fun!

A Simple Tool to Improve Your Life Experience:)

In the 30-day goof-feel challenge we introduced the "good night gratitude list" where you daily record what made you feel good that day.
The key is to continue till it becomes a habit.

This gratitude list is a simple tool how to improve how you are feeling about your life.
By recording those good-feeling moments you will become aware of the good part of your life and your awareness of that fact will grow.
When you continue focusing on the good thing in your life, your life will change.
  1. Our believes run our perception/how we experience life.
  2. By recording your good-feeling and grateful moments you will change your awareness to knowing you have a great life.
  3. That awareness will change your believes.
  4. Your changes believes will result in changes life-experience:)

Quote:
A happy life is just a string of happy moments. But most people don't allow the happy moment, because they're so busy trying to get a happy life.

30/30 challenge: It's Not the Vision Board; It's The Feeling

Day 4/ 2-30 - Monday 22.12.2013

Affirmations and vision boards:

To keep those reminders(vision boards, screen savers, affirmation stickies) alive, we need to move them around so they get our attention again.
Change the placement of the reminders to create more energy.

Attention:
notice your emotional response to the reminders. How does it feel, when you look at the image or affirmation?
Is it excitement and knowing "I know I am the creator of my experience, therefore i just relax and let the Universe deliver all the puzzle pieces at the right time and the right place"?

If your emotional response is more a thought that it's not here yet, then remove that reminder.

We place reminders and affirmations to be reminded to raise the vibration to more positive mood so check how you are doing and make adjustment if needed.

Continue with your daily by recording how You created a good feeling day or event.

Reminders can be anything that reminds you of that, in order to live the life you envision, you need to have the state of being of that desired situation.

Start with your posture and body language.

What is the demeanour of the person your want to be?
Imagine that moment and adjust your posture.

If you are interested to know more, there is a whole science called NLP about influence of our body on our mood; and mood is what we are working on here. Good Vibes = Good Life!

This small prism is one of my reminders. Innocent and small but it catches my attention and keeps me on track:)

You can improve your life-experience immediately.

You can improve your life by simply directing your thoughts to a good-feeling aspects of your life.

Bask in what works well and feels good, speak about what works well and feels good, write your "Good-Night Appreciation List" about all the good stuff in your day.
Feel good and you'll see more and more of the good-feeling stuff showing up in your life.

Yesterday I talked to one of my friends and she was very troubled by uncertain life conditions. Today she phoned me describing a complete new scenario that just happened over night. All her yesterday worries resolved themselves.

We are trained to spend more of our brain energy on worrying about what can happen instead of thinking what we can make happen.
Problems will show up but they are here to inspire you to turn in the direction of solution.

Use your time in a pleasing manner - it will pay off.


The Abraham-Hicks clip (below) points out life-improvement strategy that you can apply for any area of your life; relationships, finances, job...a very simple concept you certainly can master.

Enjoy!

The Ideal You - Do You Know Her/Him?


I thought I'll share with you the  exercise we are doing now in the 30-day Feel-Good Challenge

We are getting closer to the finish line of our 30-day challenge, so this assignment has more depth to it.
Assignment: Your Ideal You = who you really are

There is the real you as you are now and there is the ideal you, the one you are crystallizing into as you live you life’s journey. It is speaking as your inner voice that you hear and try to listen and follow.

You know this Ideal You, as your values, your talents and your desires.
Exercise:

Contemplate what are your values and talents, your attributes and your true heart's desires. Who do you want to be? How do you picture this ideal you?

Make some time for yourself to contemplate and define the picture of the ideal you. 
The fact that you can imagine this ideal you, means that it already exists and that you are not only becoming that person, but that ideal you is waiting for you to breathe life into it.

Write a description of the ideal you, the one you admire and wish to be.
“Paint” the picture of your ideal you with your words or your paintbrush, breathe life into it now.

Once created in the writing exercise it will start to live closer to your heart.
It will shine bright and be your lighthouse always giving you signal, “This way please”.

Know that this ideal you is and can come to life through your actions.

How is the poise and body language of this ideal self?  Start to get closer to your vision by adjusting your body language and poise to the one of the ideal you. Remind yourself till it becomes a habit.

Is there a specific value you want to improve like punctuality? That means your Ideal You is a punctual person, so start to change one appointment at a time to be punctual.

The benefit of those tiny action steps will be beyond the visible change. Your brain will create new neural pathways and you will become more and more the one you love to be.
 

You will improve how you feel about yourself and your perception of the world around you will be more pleasing. 

Your Ideal You is Who You Truly Are

Where Did It Turn Bad?

In general, we are trained to evaluate our experiences as good or bad.

Events are either good or bad; they turn into good or bad through the observer's evaluation.

When you'd interview two people about the same event you will get two pictures based on the orientation of the person who experienced it.
When you can recall an event from your own life, where something that looked good at first turned out to be bad (or vice versa), then you may open to the possibility that there is no sense in evaluating events.

Events are opportunities to refine our path. They are opportunity to get to know who we really are, know our values.

Events we experience are points where we can pivot and zero in on our destination. 

With this understanding our path becomes more precise and we move easier forward in the direction of our desired vision by simultaneously becoming more and more who we truly are.

When you stay pointed in the direction of your desired path, by letting go of the evaluation of events, you will be able to access solutions that are supporting your forward movement. You will be able to serve others by reaching your own goals in a win-win co-creation.

Understand this concept and grow closer to who you really are.

When you encounter negative experience become the positive counterpart of it.

When you observe hatred - envision world of Love and kindness and be loving and kind.
When you observe hunger - envision world where everyone has plenty of food and be generous.

Our Health: More Then The Genes

Our Environment Influences Our Health More Then The Genes.

Science called Epigenetics studies the influences that impact our health

The interview below explains how our mind and environment influence our health.

The cellular biologist Bruce Lipton, one of my favored teachers, explains in a "down to earth" language how we can influence out health.
Genes are not that powerful!

Tune-up your vibes

Today a lovely friend of mine told me how she successfully utilized one of the suggestions I gave her from my teachings.

She had planed to spend her day off as a productive day, filled with baking of her famous Christmas cookies. She imagined to have the baking wrapped in packages and then go to deliver them to her friends.
But in the middle of her work she received a call to come to work which completely turned her plan upside down. She described to me her first reaction which was frustration, disappointment and anger "how can they just do this to me?"
Then she calmed herself down by turning her thoughts to better feeling ones and there they were :"It's nice that my friends and family like my cookies, they actually asked me to do it so that means they really like them, I love my work and I have everything ready to go anyway, I can deliver another day, there is plenty of time till Christmas so no rush...."
And she finished her story saying to me that after this adjustment she could finish her baking and get ready for work. She said also that with the adjustment to better feeling thought, she actually notice the happiness while doing the baking as she saw in the mind the kids and friends who she loves and who appreciate her with or without the cokkies.

Inspired by this story I thought I'll introduce you to an uplifting exercise.
This is actually one of the exercises from the 30-Day Good-Feel Challenge.

The goal is to spend extended period of time in a deliberately created good-feeling mood.

We have so many great things in our life, things we acquired maybe quite the long time ago and now the excitement that was there when we got it is gone.
We can connect again with the positive of those objects simply by realizing how much they benefit our life.

The exercise:
  1. Look around in your surroundings and pick an object that is pleasing you.
  2. Count all the positive aspects that you see in it.
  3. Do it intentionally on at least 5 objects or as long it creates a good-feeling vibe.

This can be spoken in your mind, or aloud or written down
Choose the method that brings you into the highest energy of joy/ good-feeling/appreciation.
Have Fun!!!

Allow More Than You Can Imagine

Allow more then you can imagine to come into your life:

We all live in a steady expansion to more.
We know more today then before, we have more and we want to have more (in all aspects of life).

Growth is natural part of life visible everywhere.

The precursor of every new event is the mental creation as a thought or image which happens automatically once we start to focus on the subject.

This is meanwhile common knowledge and many people use this knowledge intentionally by creating images, vision boards or power point programs about the preferences they want to bring into reality.

There is one important aspect to mention in regards to a vision:
You vision is the product of your mind that operates by analyzing the material that it collected through your experiences in the past/until today.
You may then agree that there is much more "out there", which your mind is not aware of.

The conclusion:
you can create a new reality much greater then the vision your mind can conjure.

Therefore it is beneficial to see the vision of your intended outcome as a symbol.
Your vision is a tool that helps you to achieve the feeling you envision to have in the moment of manifestation of the desired event.

Allow to receive more then you can imagine, by keeping this thought in mind.
Imagine the feeling you'll have when your envisioned desire manifests as the reality of your life.

Allow Life to bring you more then you can imagine.

There is more than you can imagine
Allow this possibility in your mind
engage in activities that excite you, 
because joy is the thread that leads you to the manifestation of your desire.
Enjoy the journey!!!

How to Define Life's Purpose


Meaningful Life:
We can bring deep meaning to our life when we utilize the activity that gives us most joy in service that supports our vision of the ideal world.



How to find Life’s Purpose?

1.     Define what activities bring you most joy and excitement (this usually involves your talents, skills and faculties)

2.     Define what is your vision of the ideal world

3.     Define how you can support the realization of your vision through service, product, activity that is based on doing what brings you the most joy and excitement.

4.     Combine the above definitions into one statement


Now you are ready to

Write the definition of your Life's Purpose:
(you can use  guidelines below)

My Life’s Purpose:

  • I envision a world where ..............[what you defined in the above exercise]
  • I support this vision by ...............[name what you are doing in support of it/activity, cause, product, service, hobby)
  • Which brings me much ................[state the emotion and values /how you feel and the values you experience….joy, worthy, etc.]



Example:/ When completed,(this is my personal Life’s Purpose is):
Mila Lansdowne's Life's Purpose
I have a vision of a peaceful world where people use their unique talents and skills to experience their worthiness and create a fulfilling and prosperous life by providing service to others. I am serving this vision by empowering others through educational lectures, inspirational products and self-empowerment workshops. By doing so I experience deep fulfillment and joy; I feel passion, drive and inspired.


Note: One’s purpose is defined only by the person itself and can change with the development of the person.

When you take time to spend some thoughts on yourself and how you want to live your life (using the above exercise), you will create a source of energy that will move you forward in life by making you feel your worthiness.
You will be in your power and free.

Have Fun with this!!!

Meaningful Life - What's With It?

Everything in nature has its purpose for being and the same applies to humans, no exception.

Everyone of us has a specific purpose with a two-fold benefit.

1. outward = we benefit the society
2. inward = we feel good about ourselves

To live a meaningful life means to serve the society by doing what we enjoy.

Meaningful life becomes our reality with the moment of realization of this thought.

Nothing exists until we become aware of it.

With meaning there comes drive and enthusiasm; persistence, endurance, love and joy.

This enthusiasm comes because, when we connect with our personal purpose for living, we start to experience who we really are. That's life at it's best.

You Are Here For A Reason
What Is Your Reason For Living?
Find it and live it!

The Life-Saving Power of Mind

Not what is happening to us, but how we think about what is happening creates our "destiny".

When we keep focused on what we see around us, we just re-create the same type of experiences over and over and wonder "same old same old'.
It is good to understand that it is not the "old" remaining the same, but the new created to the image we pondered in our life then.

You may have read the book "Man's Search for Meaning". The author, Victor Frankl, who was imprisoned in a concentration camp, survived life-threatening circumstances because he managed to keep focus on a vision despite the conditions that surrounded him.

He inspired others to think about what they are going to do after the war is over and who needs them and thereby keeping their focus on meaning for staying alive; imagining life after imprisonment.

What you predominantly think about, gains momentum and as a result your mind will "bring" you more information supporting your thoughts.

Keep your mind on what you want and why you want it and your mind will make you notice opportunities and ways to solutions.
Have an inspiring vision of your life.

The below clip gives you additional insights about this subject.

How to Use The Power of Your Words to Your Benefit

There are many books written about the power of the words we speak and I'd love to give you some pointers to the subject.

The first priority in my opinion is YOU and how you use the "I Am...." expression.

Did you hear others or yourself to say I Am.....followed by not really positive statement?
I've heard so many times people say "I'm an idiot"..........

"I Am" is a present tense statement usually used to define a fact. So if you think about  it from that point of view, you may agree that it does not really serve one's benefit when we use the I Am phrase with a negative statement as it most likely also doesn't reflect the truth.
  • become aware of how you speak about yourself when you say "I am...."
  • stop to use words that do not really honor who you are
  • rephrase your statements when you notice you fall back into the old habits
You are an unique individual with an abundance of talents, skills and qualities.
Do not put yourself down.
Image:"Hand Holding Heart From Leaves" by Photokanok / FreeDigitalPhotos.net".


Do you like yourself?
Do you love yourself?
There is a a little test for you:" The Mirror Exercise"
Stand if front of a mirror, look at your image there, look into your eyes and say to your self: "I Love You". Repeat this exercise as often you can till you really believe it as a true statement.
Because it's true.
You are a lovable person.

You Get What You Pay For - Spending the Vibrational Currency

"You get what you pay for"...... An expression I've heard many times and can see in my own life, seems valid as something we experience in our daily events.

We exchange money for equivalent experience.

But how about this: What if, the same principle applies when it comes to our reality?

Out thoughts are the currency we trade for our life-experience.
When we look at life with unpleasant thoughts, we get unpleasant experiences.

Check with yourself:
Are you unhappy with your life or parts of it?
Then explore how you see the life around you.
Do you see it as competitive and unfriendly? Do you see people as greedy? Do you feel like being left out by the distribution of prosperity, health or love?

The universe is just a huge mirror and you can expect change in what you are getting, only when you first change the way you look at things and events.

Many people were and are able to go through harsh, even life-threatening, events by keeping positive, hopeful attitude.
Read for example the story of Immaculée Ilibagiza


The below clip explains more about the "vibrational currency".



Enjoy your weekend and experiment with "paying" to the Universe with more quality thoughts when you converse with others or in your own dialogue.

Quality thoughts are for example: Kindness, love, respect, generosity, acceptance, hope, joy etc.

Start to improve what you are putting out and observe the Life-Improvement that will unfold.

Good-Vibe = Good-Life
Have Fun!

Vision Boards that Work

The use of symbols is a well know practice to help our busy mind to stay focused on a goal or idea.

The same way a industrial magnate has in his/her office a statue or symbol that reminds of the overall vision or value, the same way we can use many tools to stay focused on our personal goals.

Remember: Good Life is no Hocus-Pocus .......  it only requires focus!

One of the tool we can use as a reminder is the well known vision board.

To understand how to utilize this wonderful tool requires to know that all the picture and words, you are placing on your vision board are symbols to get you into the vibrational state of excitement and joyful anticipation of the "delivery".

So don't get hung up on the specifics of the pictures, what you are aiming for with creating a vision board is to create a visual stimulation that will help you to move in higher emotional state, which is the state where you access creativity and will be able to notice "clues".

The vision board also should be a work in progress.

Keep it alive by adding or re-arranging so you will always have the benefit of emotional improvement when looking at it.

The potential of fulfillment of your dream is much larger than just what your physical mind can imagine, therefore be playful and add to your vision board what has the highers energy for you.
Don't limit your imagination by calculating what is possible, just play and soon you will notice relevant information coming into your field or perception.

When you are enthusiastic about your goal, you will live in the creative flow and achieve it.
No doubt.
Now find what bring up this excitement in you and go for it.

Have Fun!

Day 7 - 30/30 Challenge " I can say it better" exercise

As today's assignment in our 30/30 challenge is about creating momentum with our words, I thought I post this Abe clip just to give you a real-time example of how your 7th day 30/30 Challenge exercise can be developed.

There is lots of fun in playing with words and when you bring your focus to move the statements you speak in a steady improving positive forward trend; the emotional momentum you'll create will give you instant testimonial of how powerful you really are in intentionally guiding your emotions.

This is a tool for self-control that will sharpen your sensitivity to the words you speak. Our thoughts create our reality through the emotional currency they carry. Positive thought = positive words = positive emotions = positive experiences

Good Vibes = Good Life

Play with this exercise and create your own version - sky is the limit!
Have Fun!

How to Get Out of Emotional Hole in Just 3 Minutes

The clip below ( "Abraham Hicks - The easiest way to start positive momentum") presents a doable, amazing and simple way to move your mood to a better-feeling place even if you are really feeling down.

Once you've heard the presentation, make a real use of it by applying the suggestion and see for yourself the amazin positive effect.
Exercise:
find a quiet place where you feel safe from interruptions and start to speak aloud those statements as explained in the clip. There is so much you can find to appreciate so try to get going for at least 3 minutes (that's should be really easy to do). The energy will change already during your talk, so continue as long it feels good while you "count your blessings".

The scientific background of this exercise:

Your emotions are vibrational energy and your voice, the sound in your body, is energy vibration colored by the associated amotions that will surface with the thought of appreciating specific aspects in your life in that moment.

This is your tool to Instant Life-Improvement.
Good Life = Good Vibes (your vibes!!!)

Now you can pull yourself out of any emotional hole at any time. Congratulation!

With exercises like this you will step in your power and your environment will begin to reflect what you are broadcasting with your whole being.

Your emotional state defines how you perceive your environment and how you respond to it.
Start to observe, how your emotional improvement seemingly changes your experience.

This vibrational approach to life is just the scientific explanation of the truth in the old saying "What goes around, comes around"; so make sure it's something you'll like.

 Have fun!

First Comes The Wink, Then Comes The Kick:)

Universal guidance is always beaming the signal "This way please". Can you see it???

From my personal experience and from observation I must say " I'm not always aware of it's existence, because life is so busy and I need to take care of the tasks at hand. Well and then after finishing my work, I'm exhausted and don't want to think at all.....":) Yes I'm exaggerating now but the reality of our life often is like that.

The good news is that the calling of the Universe will get stronger and stronger with every day we don't follow the call. Where is it calling us??? It's is calling us to the expansion we asked for, to the new job we asked for, the better relationships we asked for etc.

For example, the Universe wants to lead you to a better feeling job beaming it's signal "come this way". This signal comes through information, ideas, you'll see an ad in the paper that catches your attention and such. Those signals are a winks you are offered to follow and even a shy tiny tiny step will put you on a better feeling spot already just by the fact of taking action and may it be just to look closer into an information.
Remember, what ever you do, check how you feel about it (eventually sleep on it). When you feel good about, then do it.

As I said the call is getting stronger and stronger and when we do not follow, we will get a kick that will catapult us into  a new situation from which we will have more clarity and can recognize our path better.
Unfortunately those kicks do not really feel good, but later, when we look back, we'll see the meaning of it.

So why don't we follow the winks and so often wait till we get the kick?
The answer is very simple. From the point of reality, where we stand in that moment, we can not see the vistas and our mind reflects that mindset by presenting a  plethora of reasons not to step out of the safe but not satisfying situation. So we don't even try and feel stuck.

I am no exception in this lack of team-spirit with the Universe.
I was trained and actually very proud of managing my life, taking control. I thought that is the sure-fire way of life and somewhat it is.
I certainly can understand when you are standing in the same shoes as I was as long I had other people (my children and parents) depending on my ability to manage my life.

Now I have the freedom to follow life's calling and I have to say, this is the "real deal". To live life in I-do, U-do is fun and excitement. When you can embrace the uncertainty of life (which by-the-way is always present and no insurance policy can prevent us from) and follow your heart, you'll live a full life.

You don't need to pull your happiness out of the Universe by manipulating your environment, be patient, trust and let it unfold. The Universal timing is always the right time.

Trust in the life force that is you, laugh more, play more, enjoy your life.

30/30 Challenge - Day 3

This is the third day of our challenge.

You have now two tools in your Life-Improvement toolbox
  1. Happy Moments - a daily sticky
  2. Daily Good Night - a daily gratitude journal
Both of those "tools" are your daily equipment. You will really benefit when you manage to complete every day the quick and easy tasks described in the previous posts.
You can see now where the challenge is; it's you and you.

If you truly want to improve your life, feel better and have pleasant life-experiences, you need to improve your  vibrational "call" to the Universe. You always get what you are thinking about and my program, the 30/30 challenge, provides tools you can use for your benefit.

The video clip below explains the next step:
30/30 Challenge, 3. Day Exercise:

Life is supposed to be fun -  get creative ( and if you need inspiration, ask a child and listen to ideas their imagination will bring up:)

Have a wonderful weekend!
PS:
The Abraham-Hicks clip mentioned in the above video, will be posted in a separate post called "Prosperity is About Creativity, Not Fixing".

Prosperity is About Creating, Not Fixing.

The clip below ("Abraham Hicks ~ Turning around lackful thinking") is related to the 3. Day of the 30/30 Good-Life Challenge (Good-Feel Challenge:)

What ever you want to improve in your life, you need first to feel good about it. Our logic often stands between out wanting and the ability to create positive emotion about it.

The clip below explains the way to solution.



The goal of the Life-Improvement 911 program, is to help create good feeling emotions as often as possible, thereby changing the point of attraction (or resonance) to a better feeling one.

Good Vibe = Good Life

30/30 Challenge - Day 2

Day 2: 30 Days of Good Nights 



Now that you started to notice and more importantly, deliberately create your Happy Moments throughout the day, your second assignment is as follows:
  1. In the evening before you go to sleep, take your journal and contemplate the day in retrospect, by expressing gratitude for instances that made you feel appreciated, happy and grateful.
  2. for example write: I am grateful for the delivery of my papers, thank you for the nice chat at the post office, thank you for the wonderful sunny day...etc.
  3. Write as much you want. The key is to feel good while you are writing down your notes of appreciation.
  4. Continue with this practice every day. The act of remembering and writing down will influence you general emotional state in a positive way. Do this for all of the 30 days and see how your life will change for the better. Those happy and good-feeling moment are gifts and if you acknowledge them, more of wonderful things start to happen for you.
Those daily exercises are your "Life-improvement tools", which, when used every day, will gradually influence your quality of life to a better-feeling one.
  Good Vibes = Good Life

Life can always be a little better!

Go Hunting for Your Happy Moments

The 30/30 Challenge is on and I thought I'll share the program with you as we go through the exercises, so the people who do not have time to follow in the group, would be able to play and add some more fun to their lives (that is my intent for sure).
 
Day 1:
Hunting for Happy Moments:

Task:
Make yourself deliberately happy with a specific activity.
Write in your journal
1.     what you did
2.     how did it make you feel
3.     and why
You are not limited to one instant of this exercise. Play with it as much you like, observing and recording will result in a change in your perception. (You need to do it/ words do not teach:)

Get creative and take picture of those conscious happy moments. As you start to notice them, more and more will show up in your days.

30 Days of Happy Stickies
This exercise is designed to be your daily tool to guide your emotions to good-feeling ones and therefore attract into your life good-feeling experiences.

I found it useful, to make a "sticky" for each day and attach them in a place where I'll be reminded of my daily intent: "I deliberately create happy moments every day in my life".
The sticky note is quick and easy way, but please let you creativity soar; make the recording of your Happy Moments a Happy Moment itself:)

After few days of doing (!) this exercise you'll notice a shift in a heightened creativity and good mood. You may have a new “aha-moment” or  a new idea.

Play and Have Fun!!!
My Happy Stickies (quick and easy)

Harmonize Your World

What do I mean by "Harmonize Your World"? I mean harmonize your world with who you really are.

Anything that evokes an unpleasant feeling in you is signal of dissonance with who you really are. When you pay attention to something that makes you feel uncomfortable you actually see on the opposite, who you really are. For example: when you despite violence, that is the peaceful being who you truly are saying I Am peaceful, I want peace.

Understanding your reaction to your environment will help you to understand the magnificence and grace that you really are.

Use your feel-good compass to harmonize your life. Arrange your personal environment in harmony with who you really are.

You can not change the way life works, but you can change the environment you call your own (and be it just a tiny place on a shelf or space in your handbag:)

I mean: create a space you feel good about. You are certainly as the physical being in the center of your world. But your world extends much further then just your body and everything in that space "talks to you" by affecting your mood.

Do a little test: Look around in the space you are right now and screen quickly the objects you see.
How do those objects resonate with you?

I notices for example that every time I looked at a specific (closed) drawer, a slightly negative feeling would come up, like an unpleasant reminder.
The reason for this unpleasant feeling was my awareness of the untidy content of this drawer, which screamed "this is not me!"...Finally I cleaned it up and felt like a "winner" every time I looked at it again.


Small actions of improvement affect our good feeling in a big way.

Look around and express you magnificence in your environment.

Have fun with it!

Free yourself of dependency and manipulation.



The essence of Good Life is to approach life from affirming place of positive expectation.

The outside world does not care about your happiness or how it will affect you.

Become your own master and guide yourself to joy from the inside out. Free yourself of dependency and manipulation.

When you can be happy without a reason you are free of being manipulated by the outside circumstance.

4 minutes clip to contemplate:
Abraham Hicks~It's all about practicing the feeling of joy

 

I wish you many happy encounters.

Enjoy your day!

How to Get Inspired

I have few things on my plate today and one of them wouldn't be my priority if there wouln't be so called deadline. So I decided to get the momentum going with a simple method I'm using to initiate inspired action:)

I know by now that I will get my tasks done faster, easier and in more enjoyable way when I move myself into realizing the benefits that the accomplishment of this task will give me.

So what I've done today, was to hold back with the action and first screen in my mind what benefits I'll get from the accomplishment of the task.

The effect of this practice:
When I create the vibration, i.e. emotional state, of the accomplished task, before I begin to do the actual work, I am lining up the energy of where I am now with the energy of where I want to be; which plainly is the vibrational aspect of how we create our reality and manifest results.

Now I'm ready to tackle my task in a up-beat mood:)

Play with it and see for yourself.
Have fun with your work!

Be The Designer of Your Life

Focus on Creating, not Fixing!

When you are about to initiate changes in your life, it's the best to start with the end; with the development of the mental picture of what you want to have when it's finished.

Everything we have in the man-made reality was once just a mental image in some person's mind.

Life-improvement is real fun, because you can create in your mind anything you can imagine and play with it till your eagerness grows and pulls you into inspired action.
That is creative unfolding, the delight of living.

The picture comes before the plan and action. Once you have a vivid picture of the envisioned situation more of the information on how to get there will show up.

The lead to actions steps will be delivered to you through natural channels. You mayl get e-mail with relevant information or you will overhear conversation that will just give you an idea what to do. There will be a flow of information supporting your goal-achievement.

Instead of the hunting for information your will be receiving without effort. That is the truth.

Read again the Inspired Action article I wrote. You will have the best life-experiences when you "play with the Universe the I-do, U-do game", when you start to notice and use the support offered by the Universe. There is no supernatural magic in it, it's just one of the laws of the universe and when you become aware of it, you will create your life with ease and joy.   

My life begun unfolding when I started to play and test those principles by simply paying attention to my thoughts and feeling and making correlation to my life experiences.
Today I have  a plethora of examples in positive and negative. The good thing is I learned, and I can laugh about unpleasant manifestations, because I know I created it and I can see why it "came to life".

There is so much happening around us and it requires a training of our awareness to create the life we really want.
That is my reason for the 30-Day Life-Improvement Challenge program.
Speaking of which, there will be another post (today or tomorrow) on this blog, answering the questions I received about the Challenge and giving you more information.

Enjoy your Saturday:)

You are invited to the 30 Day Life-Improvement Challenge

To join my free mentoring group on Facebook for the 30-day Life Improvement Challenge; send me a FB message (with a friend request if not already connected) to:
https://www.facebook.com/mila.lansdowne

This group is in the Secret FB Group Category; intended for posting of the daily assignments, members’ homework and questions/experiences/comments during the program.
Privacy: Only members see the group, who is in it and what members post.

The mandate of this program is to assist you in creating better life experiences through focused directing of your thoughts in daily assignments.
Designed and facilitated by Mila Lansdowne.

This Program is based on the concept:
”What you think and therefore feel is what you manifest as your experience”.
i.e. Your feeling is your “order” to Universe  “Give me more of that same-feeling stuff!” 

The success of the program is based on: 
I think forward, I speak forward, I move forward.
For that reason, there is one guideline for your participation in the FB group:
 It is absolutely necessary to formulate your FB posts describing where you are headed I.e. what you want.
Examples will be always provided with the daily assignment post to the group.

Much Love to you,
Mila

30/30 "Good Morning" Challenge


30 Days /30 seconds "Good Morning" Challenge

Can you feel good for 30 days? 30 minutes? 30 seconds???
Can you start every day on a positive note ??
There is only one way how to find out.
Try it!
Let's go for 30 days with 30 seconds of Good Mornings.

I learned from my mom to tune up my good mood every morning before I’d get up.

This simple tool will get you a good start for your day.
Instead of opening your eyes and starting to think about your to-do list, pause and spend few moments on tuning up your good-feeling mood.

There are many ways to it and you will find out what works best for you.
For example you can have your favorite feel-good music as your wake up setting and before you’ll jump out, think in your mind(or say to your self): "Today is my day and I want to feel good. I love to feel good and when I feel good I have more energy. It's great to have more energy. I love that. I love this day…"or anything else that has the same effect.

Do you know how many uplifting words can you think in 30 seconds?? Try it! Make it fun!

Those words take just few seconds, but the small pause, before you jump out, will make a difference in your day and the good feeling will stay with you at least for a while.

Let's make it more fun and play a little game:
Observe how long this high good-feeling can last. And when you notice it’s going down, find a thought that feels good again.
You will have more energy, you’ll be in the proximity of creative solutions and even your immune system will work better (by now we know that negative emotions affect the health in a negative way and what could be better than a great health!!!).

So I ask again:
Can you feel good for 30 days? 30 minutes? 30 seconds???
And I know:
Yes you can.

By the way, you don’t need to wait till tomorrow morning, you can do this little exercise any time you want. And do you know what else?? You don’t need anyone, in order to feel really good, because You’ll be in your own power.

Have a Great Day!

Inspired Action

So far we talked about tuning up your vibration in regards to achieve alignment therefore the realization of what you want.

When it comes to the subjects of your life, that you really care about, the whole purpose of getting into high vibration of positive emotion,  is to reach a momentum that will move you toward your goal.

Once you have your emotional juices going in a high flying vibe, your will be inspired into action. There is a difference between getting motivated by deadline (or other logical reason) and being inspired.

Life is truly worthwhile living when you master the inspired action. Not only you will connect to creativity filled with clarity, ideas and solutions, but all this will feel like fun and excitement.
You'll get into the flow of your creativity and you will be pulled into action in an effortless unfolding.

That is the fun of living.
Now observe your actions and how you feel when you do things. Think of how you can make it more fun.
Make your daily chores fun. Find something good-feeling in the mundane tasks you perform.

When I shoveled my driveway this weekend, it was fun. I was pulled into the action by thinking of the calorie burn that it will give me, the feeling of the sun in my face and the fresh air getting into my system, the $$ that stay in my pocket as a bonus and the satisfying feeling of accomplishment that will give me an emotional boost after I'm finished. I even posted the picture on Facebook and the good-feeling is now something that I can recall when I want to tune my vibration higher.

Get ready for the 30-Day Good-Feel Challenge: 
There is a reason why am I choosing 30 days.
Scientific findings show that our brain can change to new perception after about 25 days of uninterrupted practicing. Some teachers work with 40 days and others with 21 days. For that reason I am choosing 30 Day Exercise. There will be some preparation days coming first as well.

My intent with the 30 Day program is to help you to start to take action. The daily exercises are means to train your vibration into more supportive one; a good-feeling one.
So there is no downside to it. What could be better than to live the freedom of good-feeling life?

Life is in a steady change and you set the direction of it.
Have fun!
