Stop to smell the flowers! Take a breath and let your shoulders relax and go down! It’s a new day. A new opportunity to begin again. Don’t expect a bad day today. Expect a good one. Create a good one. Soar with the eagles. No one except YOU can change your life….it’s all in your hands. Only YOU can respond instead of reacting.
Every one of those trials you’ve faced seemed life shattering. But they are not unless you give power to them.
The past is the past. Begin again. Take a few more slow and deep breaths and SMILE. Loose the fear and forge a head with great expectancy of the present and future!
“Good thoughts and actions can never produce bad results; bad thoughts and actions can never produce good thought and actions. Men understand this in the natural world (nothing can come from corn except corn) – but few unterstand it is in the mental and moral world.”
James Allen

Because you acquire fresh knowledge intellectually doesn’t mean it will change your life or your soul. Knowledge not put into practice is dormant; suspended in time until put into use.
Inhale slowly through the nose. Exhale. This is a gift. You are an oxygen machine and can enhance your life, relax your body, and manage your stress much more effectively if you just remember to stop and take a breath when you are overwhelmed. Take in several mindful breaths, recognizing that in order for you to move forward intellectually, you need oxygen for your brain. Panic and stress cause us to slow our breathing!
PRACTICE this one technique for stress management every time you feel you cannot go any further. Believe management will happen. The body responds to your “input”, and to your thoughts. Make it happen! Create a beautiful day as moments of your life will accelerate. Use each one with positive thoughts – those thoughts become your life.
