To live a well balanced, rewarding life of our dreams by day and sleep restfully at night.
If you find your mind slipping into a worrying state, do one of these ten things:
1. Remind yourself of this fact: “this too shall pass”
2. Remember that tomorrow is another day. Each time we focus on something new we create a new beginning. That can be tomorrow or even RIGHT NOW.
3. 99% of what we worry about never comes happens.
4. Smile and “fake it till you make it”. If we physically act cheerful, we will in fact become cheerful (and worrying anxious thoughts don’t stand a chance. Ha!)
5. Jump around in your living room by yourself or with family members to music or just laugh and be silly.
6. Get busy doing something. We tend to worry if we are being idle.
7. Write down a list of things you are thankful for in your gratitude journal.
8. Get moving!
9. Go outside. The natural world is very calming to the nerves and feeds the spirit.
10. Sit up a little taller and declare “I Am enough! Worry, be banished!”
In Peace,

This morning I set an intention to be silly today. It is healing to not take ourselves or life too seriously all the time. So, in that spirit, here are my ideas for the day:
1. Make funny faces.
2. Forgive quickly
3. If I watch a movie tonight, watch a comedy.
4. Tell my young students some jokes and riddles.
5. Eat dessert first.
6. Play, play, play!
7. Workout with abandon at the gym later.
8. Download some fun new music for my workouts.
9. Smile first, think later.
10. Laugh at anything.
11. Be a geek and don’t care.
To a silly day!
Debra
