1) Let go of negativity.
- Learn to forgive and forget.
- See every challenge as an opportunity for further growth.
- Express gratitude for what you have.
- Be more optimistic about the future and your ability to accomplish life goals.
- Open yourself up to success and embrace failures or mistakes that happen along the way.
- Know that none of us are perfect, we are all here to entertain and be entertained.
- Don’t worry about the little things. Take plenty of “worry vacations” where you train your mind not to worry for a certain lengths of time.
- If you want to be more positive, surround yourself with positive energy and people. Nurture the positive relationships that you have, seeking out more of those relationships that help uplift you.
2.) Serve and be kind to others.
- Treat everyone with kindness. Not only does it help others to feel better, but you will notice that you too feel good after having a positive interaction with others.
- Speak well of others. When you speak negatively of others you will attract more negativity to yourself, but when you speak positively of others, you will attract more positivity.
- Truly listen to others. Be present and mindful to what others are really saying when they speak. Support them without bringing yourself into it.
- Be careful with your words. Speak gentler, kinder, and wiser.
3.) Live in the present.
- Don’t replay negative events or worry about the future.
- Accept and celebrate impermanence. Be grateful for your life, for each moment of every day. Observe the constant and natural flow of change that surrounds us, and your small yet important part in the natural, divine flow of life.
- Observe yourself in the moment. Work on your reactions to outer circumstances and learn how to approach life harmoniously.
4.) Choose a healthy lifestyle.
- Keep a daily routine. Wake up at the same time every morning, preferably early. Setting yourself to a natural biorhythm will make it easier to wake up and feel energized.
- Get enough sleep. Proper sleep is linked to positive personality characteristics like optimism, improved self-esteem, and even problem solving.
- Expose yourself to cold temperatures (especially first thing in the morning with perhaps a cold shower). It increases your circulation, helps minimize inflammation in the body, enhances weight loss, and energizes and invigorates you to start your day.
- Eat properly. What you eat has a direct effect on your mood and energy levels. Eat plenty of organic, locally grown fruits and vegetables, nuts, whole grains, and dairy products that are both vitamin and mineral infused. Don’t overeat and try to practice healthy self-control.
- Exercise daily to the point of sweating. It not only helps to purify the body, but also releases endorphins which help to prevent stress, relieve depression, and positively improve your mood.
- Laugh more. Laughter is the best medicine. Like exercise, it releases endorphins that battle the negative effects of stress and promote a sense of well-being and joy.
- Practice deep breathing and yoga. The body and mind are connected. Emotions affect the physical systems in the body, and the state of the body also affects the mind. By relaxing and releasing tension through the breath or yoga practice you feel more calm and centered throughout the day.
5.) Take care of your spirit.
- Strive to always learn new things. Constantly expand your awareness and discover new ways of expressing your divine gifts.
- Get creative. This will not only challenge you to learn new things, but will also help to keep your mind in a positive place. Practice living in the present moment and being a channel for the divine flow of creativity.
- Practice meditation. Research has proven that even as little as 10 minutes of meditation a day can lead to physical changes in the brain that improve concentration and focus, calm the nervous system, and help you to become more kind and compassionate, and even more humorous. Then bring the joy and peace you receive from meditation into your daily life and activity.
- Be honest. Telling the truth keeps you free inside, builds trust in relationships, and improves your will power and the ability to attract success.
