Hiya wellness warriors. 
Gratitude is the Attitude!
Now that you've identified what you love, it's a delicious time to welcome gratitude into your life. Gratitude puts you in a position of having instead of wanting. When I take stock of my blessings, I get more blessings. I throw bottomless "wanting" out into the universe, i get back more wanting. Life doesn't start when all your ducks are in a row; it's happening right now. Notice what you do have instead of focusing on what you don't. Plenty multiples like horny bunnies, but so does lack. If you can't think of anything, then your inner sourpuss has highjacked you. This is very serious. Immediately send a SWAT team armed with a fire hose of sunshine to your rescue.
FOCUS
Here's something for us to mull over. What if our problems disappeared today? Would we be instantly happy? Tell the truth. My sense is that the answer would be no. Most of us build state-of-the-art infrastructure to house our ego's negative voice. We provide sturdy platforms for doubt and despair. If the source of the misery were removed, don't think for a nano-second that the self-created support beams would vanish with it. When we stop feeding the negativity, it will collapse.
POSITIVE SELF TALK
With gratitude for all that I have, remind me to take stock and be thankful for another day on Mama Earth.
AFFIRMATION
My life is abundant now, rivers of joy and health flood my inner ashram and fill me with stamina, strength, and amen.
GOD POD MAINTENANCE & PHYSICAL CHALLENGE
Download a guided meditation or peaceful chanting CD. Take fifteen minutes or more to rest and regroup. Connect with yourself. And rejoice in all that you have to be happy for.
TIP
Clean out the make up bag and medicine cabinet. Be grateful that you have alternatives - and use them. Chemical moisturizer, old lipsticks, and eye shadows -- gotta go. They are poisoning you and you deserve better!
