Give Medicine A Helping Hand

Give Medicine A Helping Hand

“Health does not always come from medicine. Most of the time it comes from peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love”

We live in a world where medicine answers all of the health issues.

A pill to fix that headache, we all know ‘the drill’.

However, attitudes are slowly changing.

The emphasis is becoming more on helping ourselves then relying on manmade medicine.

Don’t get me wrong, medicine saves lives and the doctors and nurses are ‘miracle-workers’.

But we can “help ourselves” too.

A positive spirit keeps the mind more peaceful, and the more tranquil our minds are, the calmer our bodies are.

Giving ourselves time to rest and ‘heal’, and filling our days with love and laughter, will give us that peace of mind which will keep our bodies ‘peaceful’.

There is nothing wrong with giving medicine a ‘helping hand’ too.

Our everyday health will improve if we prioritize our self-care, every single day.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Healthier And Happier

 Healthier And Happier

“There is not enough room in your mind for both worry and faith. You must decide which one gets to live there”

Which “one” will make you happy and healthy?

Which “one” will strengthen your mind?

Which “one” will help to keep you in shape physically?

When we keep our minds full of positive and optimistic thoughts, there is no room for anything else!

We need to make the conscious effort to “think” the right thoughts.

Faith is the complete trust and confidence in someone or something.

Make that someone “YOU”!

Have faith and confidence in yourself and in your own abilities.

Remember what you have personally overcome.

Prove to yourself that ‘there is nothing to worry about’ because you are in control of your own life.

Having faith in yourself will build up your mental health.

Daily meditation will keep the mind full and ‘busy’ with constructive thinking.

Letting go of worrying thoughts will help us to embrace today and to live in the moment.

It takes time and effort but when we make the right choice, we become happier and healthier.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

We Need To Do This Every Day

 We Need To Do This Every Day

“Respect your body when it’s asking for a break. Respect your mind when it’s seeking rest. Honour yourself when you need a moment for yourself”

We live in such a fast-paced and busy world, that we forget, or do not even think about, stopping and resting.

We are just as important as those we care for, so we should give ourselves that precious time to basically ‘look after ourselves’.

Our bodies and minds are not machines and need rest.

This is important to remember!

When we give ourselves time to rest, refresh and rejuvenate, we are respecting ourselves, our bodies and our minds.

It is important to put “self-care” at the top of the list because we want to have healthy bodies and healthy minds.

Taking five or ten minutes every day for ourselves is not selfish but necessary.

We want to be healthy and happy.

We ‘deserve’ to be healthy and happy.

When you are tired, listen to your body and mind and stop for that cup of tea, and make sure you have a proper lunch.

We say it to others so we should ‘listen to our own words’.

Respect.

Honour.

Care for yourself — every single day.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Write Your Own Story

 Write Your Own Story

“You cannot go back and change the beginning but you can start where you are and change the ending”

This encourages us to live in the present moment.

We can learn from the past and use that knowledge to shape our lives, today and for our futures.

We need to focus on the present day and use every opportunity to create a beautiful future.

This is not easy!

By making positive changes now, we will have the control and the power to have the kind of life that we personally want.

We need to let go of the past.

We need to embrace the future.

Every one of us is unique and every one of us has our own unique paths to go down.

Only we can ‘write’ the kind of story that we want to live in.

It is never too late to change our lives, to change our ‘story’, so that we can become a happier and stronger version of ourselves.

We want a fulfilling life and ‘work’ today for a fulfilling future.

Let’s make every moment count today towards a bright and lovely future.

Be Willing To Work Hard

 Be Willing To Work Hard

“Success never comes easy; patience and hard work are the only keys”

The word “Success” means: ‘the accomplishment of an aim or purpose’.

Anything that is ‘accomplished’ has taken hard work and patience.

This teaches us that perseverance and dedication are needed for overcoming challenges and succeeding in our lives.

Nothing in life comes ‘free’, so if we are prepared to put time and effort into our lives, our journey will be more successful.

Also, by applying patience and diligence, we will grow and reach our full potential, opening up new opportunities for ourselves.

Any ‘dream’ will always take work to achieve that ‘level’ we want to achieve.

How good we will feel and how proud of ourselves we will be once ‘we’ve got there’.

Remember, though, that life itself requires constant determination and that willingness to make our daily lives successful.

It's All About Control

It’s All About Control

“The calmer you are, the clearer you think. Move with strategy, not with emotions”

How true these words are!

If only we could keep them in our minds when things become difficult.

Mindful Meditation every morning will definitely help.

We need to cultivate a sense of calmness in our everyday lives, which will stay with us during the challenging times.

Prioritizing a rational mind will help us to think in a clearer way, which will help us to make ‘the right decisions’.

It is difficult when our emotions are involved, but the calmer we are, the more “control” we will have over the situation.

Never make a decision when you are feeling emotional, but stop and try to think about things in a calm manner, and maybe with a clearer mind, you will ‘see your way’.

Thinking, writing down or even saying out loud positive affirmations, every day, will help to keep the calm thoughts in our minds.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

It Brings Meaning To Our Lives

 It Brings Meaning To Our Lives

“Call me crazy but I love to see people happy and succeeding. Life is a journey, not a competition”

Does it seem crazy to want to see others happy and to be happy yourself?

Of course not!

We all want to live in a more peaceful and happier world.

It’s only natural.

Every one of us is on a journey, walking down our own unique path, because we are all so different and special.

This means that life is a ‘journey’ and not a competition.

When we encourage others to succeed, we are also encouraging ourselves to.

This “attitude” will spread happiness, contentment and kindness.

When we see someone succeed and smile, we become inspired ourselves and we have a sense of joy.

All of this makes the world around us a much more pleasant world to live in.

Life is a journey where we can support and uplift each other, even with our own versions of what success is.

Celebrating the success and happiness of others brings more meaning to our own lives.

Strong And Steady

 Strong And Steady

“You can’t always have a good day. But you can always face a bad day with a good attitude”

It’s all about what is in our minds and how we ‘want’ to be in life.

A patient and positive person sees the good in life, no matter how difficult the day may be.

It is a choice!

A positive attitude will help us to face the most challenging of days.

This mindset will keep us strong and steady in our journey in life.

Plus, we will learn to appreciate the good days, which we do and will have during our lives.

 In this way, we will always be optimistic even though we may have no control over our day.

We will ‘feel’ better about our day too.

Plus, our attitude is our greatest asset in overcoming any obstacles that come our way.

Remember to be positive and resilient and then we will grow and learn everyday.

“Our attitude is our greatest asset in overcoming the obstacles that do come our way".

Remember to be positive and resilient, and then we will grow and learn every single day.

Every Single Day

 Every Single Day

“Success doesn’t come from what you can do occasionally; it comes from what you do consistently”

When we want to do anything, it takes repetition and patience to get it right.

Every pianist will tell you that it is repeated practice, every single day, which turns the pupil into the master.

The same applies to a ballet dancer, it’s the basic dance moves, practiced every single day, which enables the dancer to learn the more difficult moves.

In fact, this ‘law of practice’ applies to everything we do in Life.

We learn to eat and swallow properly because we eat every day.

We learnt to walk because we ‘toddled’ every day.

Both of these things are very basic but necessary so we learn to do them, and still do them, every single day.

Imagine how well we could do when we practice something that we ‘dream’ of doing, every single day.

Everything we do starts in the mind!

Thinking about our dreams every day will encourage us to ‘practice’ them as much as we can, every single day if possible.

Consistent hard work and dedication will make our lives a success, even in the mundane things.

When we put the time and effort into something we really want to do, our lives will feel more fulfilled and successful.

Make That Conscious Effort

 Make That Conscious Effort

“Train your mind to see the good in everything. Positivity is a choice. The happiness of your life depends on the quality of your thoughts”

How true these words are!

Our “Minds” affect every aspect of our Lives so what we ‘allow’ ourselves to Think about, will affect us.

It does sound strange, but we need to “Think” about what we Think about.

What are we Focused on?

The Positive and Good?

Or the negative and bad?

We will either be Happy or sad.

What do you want in your Life?

What do I want in my Life?

Surely, anything that Strengthens and Helps us Mentally is worth Focusing on.

Our Mental Health is one of the most Important ‘things’ in our Lives and we must Care for this every single day of our Lives.

Practicing Gratitude will Encourage our Minds to see the Good in our everyday Lives.

This Helps us to Train our Minds  to Focus on the Positive.

The Good and the Positive is in every day, we just need to make that conscious effort to see it.

It's Your Energy

 It’s Your Energy

“Stop using your energy to worry. Use your energy to believe, create, love, grow, glow, manifest, and heal”

When we are so busy every single day, it is so easy to ‘waste’ our energy worrying about things that do not really matter in our Lives.

This drains our emotions and our Minds and stops us from moving forwards in our journey of Life.

We need to Believe in Ourselves and have the Confidence to Control our own Lives.

We want to create the love that we all deserve.

It is important to grow and to manifest the kind of Life and Future that we personally desire.

It cannot be emphasized enough to give ourselves time to heal and then we will glow in our Happiness.

When we use our energy to radiate that Positive feeling, it will ‘bounce off’ others, and then the world around us becomes a much more friendly and cheerful place.

It is a choice to focus on things that are ‘worth’ spending our energy on, but we will grow in Love, Joy and Faith, not just in ourselves but also in the world around us.

Live And Appreciate Today

 Live And Appreciate Today

“Take time to be thankful for everything you have. You can always have more, but you could also have less”

We Live in such a fast-paced and busy world, that it is so easy to take what we have and who we have in our Lives for granted.

Not because we don’t care but because we ourselves are so busy in our Lives.

It is Important, every day, to Think about and Appreciate all of this.

Our Lives may seem ‘simple’ but we still have them!

And we must keep in our minds that, very often, we have more than others.

Everyone of us could have more but we could also have less.

We will find Contentment when we Accept and Appreciate what we have Today and Now.

This is when ‘Living in the Moment’ really helps us, because we find Joy in everything and everyone we Have in our Lives Today.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
