It Feels Good to Feel Good

When we feel tangled in our outer life, our bodies feel the effects. Disease is so often rooted in a sense of dis-ease over time. Our bodies rely on us to choose a better feeling in each moment. And so, it is soo important to help our inner selves feel good.

Feeling good is not about focusing on what does not make you feel good and trying to make them better. Sometimes its actually about focusing on something else entirely.

Letting problems detangle on their own is a skill. It is a skill worth practicing to make life a little easier on ourselves. When life feels a bit easier, our bodies respond with gratitude and reward us with that good feeling we are looking for in the first place.

Here are 5 Ways to Trick Yourself to Health

1. LAUGH

Take the time to laugh. With a friend, at yourself, at the wall. Just laugh. That sound itself is so infectious and it is life’s priceless medicine. Laughing relaxes the whole body, boosts the immune system, strengthens the heart and lightens your burdens.

2. ENJOY

Find pleasure in everything you eat. By savoring every bite we relieve unnecessary stress and tension in the body which could arise from those guilty feelings après dessert. Feeling pleasure or enjoyment is a tried and true way of aligning back to health.

3. LOVE

Find one thing you like about yourself and love it! One thing can mean your eyelashes, your fingernails, or the length of your hair. Keep the peace within yourself when you look in the mirror.

4. CLEAN

The space you live in and the things you surround yourself with can and will influence how you feel. You know that thing that you keep around just in case that moment arrives when you think you’ll use it? Guess what – you probably won’t. Throw it away, give it away, do what you gotta do to get it out of your space.

5. SIMPLIFY

What has been in your mind all day? Think a simpler thought. It doesn’t have to be positive, it doesn’t have to be good, just a little more simple.
