How to create and have a perfect day!

I usually do not make post like this but since the passing of my Dad I find in my heart a great desire to let people know that we are here day to day and we can and will leave in the blink of an eye.


I notice people complaining about many things...right, I mean we are human. ....BUT! we can do and align ourselves in a way to have a perfect day. We can start and end our day in prayer and through our day we should be thankful and express our gratitude to others and our Lord and Saviour.
The Bible says in Psalms 118:24 "This is the day that the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."

Here is what I find is true. When I wake, I begin at that very moment being thankful that I am here and I have breathe and life in me to live another day. I sit up and start praying out loud.  Then I thank God almighty for many things, I pray for others (family, friends...their health, salvation, etc.) I ask the Lord to bless my day and allow me to be a good effective witness to others, I pray over my business, I ask God for my desire for the day and ask that he protect me and all I do and ask all road blocks be removed and that he watch over me and keep myself and family safe in our journeys. I then I thank him and spend time praising him... then I say my amen.

I have discovered that I am at peace through my day. Yes, even in times of trouble I find peace knowing I am a blessed child of God and this to shall pass. I find

Deuteronomy 28 a great one... It talks about keeping the commandments and honoring God and serving no other Gods and blessings will be upon you... Read it. 

28 And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments which I command thee this day, that the Lord thy God will set thee on high above all nations of the earth: read the full scripture here.

I just felt like I was suppose to share this today with you and this is my blog post today.

The great thing about being alive another day and another moment is we can change, we are being given yet another chance . The time is now. Do not wait. If you want your life to change do it now.... just simply pray, humble yourself before God and just talk to him like you would do anyone. He hears you. Come before him in Jesus name and ask his forgiveness, ask his guidance, ask his blessings, pray for others, and then thank him. Take time also to read his word so it feeds daily your body, mind and spirit and keeps you strong in him and him in you.

Blessings to all of you. I pray you found this helpful.

Happiness is a choice and how to be happier

As psychologist William James has said it, “The greatest discovery of any generation is that a human can alter his life by altering his attitude.” Here are some ways in which you can help yourself stay positive and happier.

1: first remember that this is a mindset. You must retrain the brain. You need to choose to be happy first and foremost.

2: Meditate daily & prayer helps with this retraining and helps keep your mind clear. As you meditate or pray and negative thoughts come say, forgive the person who hurt you and if it was you forgive yourself and even say and I do this outloud. I forgive you and I release this memory, this feeling of hurt and pain and I replace you with joy, peace and happiness. Then take a few long slow deep breaths in and let them go the same way ONLY imagine that bad memory and as you breathe out you let the memory go and discharge it from your body. This is a very cleansing process. If you feel emotions let it out its ok this is your time to heal yourself.

3: Positive thoughts = positive minds What I mean if you focus your mind, your thoughts on happier times and it causes you to smile which will release endorphins. So, if you will you can use fragrance to assist you with this. I personally use essential oils to help me. I use an oil that takes me back to my childhood. It was a bright beautiful summer day and I was like 10. We were visiting and in Cape Cod for a family reunion. There were many of us children and I heard music and all the other kids started running towards the street and I followed. I had no idea what this pleasure was as the little country town I came from had no such thing as they called it an ice cream truck. I was delighted to see what this noise brought us and every stood inline and even the parents all came and everyone bought ice cream. Now, I am sure this is a happy memory for the ice cream driver as well. I remember my dad and uncle standing there and that ice cream man handing me something called a creamsicle. I remember the smell and when I smell that I can taste that creamsicle all over again. The mind is an amazing thing. I found and essential oil that smells just like that and I experience that happy thought all over again. What is your smell that takes you to a happy place? Tell me below in the comments of this blog post or Facebook.

4: Music; part of mind, thought, reset is listening to happy music and even dancing. Find a song to start your day with and make sure you dance and sing to it. Give yourself those 3 minutes of bliss first thing in the morning and it will change your day. Then if you work and its a stressful job have another happy song or several and listen to them or take 10 minutes of your lunch break and sit quietly and release it all maybe place a drop of happy or relaxing essential oil under your nose and just reset.

5: Finding good in everything. Life has it's ups and downs and I mean that is just life and it all has a purpose. Know matter what the situation there is something good in it. If a co-worker is talking bad about you there is a higher purpose. (maybe you were suppose to get fired so you could get a better job, start your own business, maybe it was to push you to start living the dream life you have taken no action in achieving) (maybe they talked bad about you and it lit a fire under your butt to to achieve more) You get what I mean ? Recently, I had a family member pass and the person was so young, retired , great family and two beautiful grandchildren she loved very much. It seemed wrong, it seemed sad very sad and there were just no answers. Like why did this happen. At the wake in the church the family member who spoke talked of God and salvation and a few things he had said to her. He did a call for salvation/alter call. I counted 14 times that he spoke and said I see your hands, God bless you then he opened it up for people to come forward and it was like more than half the room went forward. This was my finding good in something bad... See what I am talking about? God use my family member to bring about eternal life to others. This may of been the only thing that would bring the to their eternal salvation. This brings me peace, comfort and join and happiness in knowing this. I assure you there is always something good in ANY given situation you have to find it or know it's something bigger than you.

6: Practice gratitude, yep say thank you more. write note cards to people just for no particular reason. I like to write at least 1 postcard a month or note saying thank you or calling someone to tell them what they mean to me. This will make you feel wonderful and them.

7: Exercise: Exercise releases happy endorphins also. Walking counts and you don't need a gym to do it in. even just 10 minutes a day and you will be on your way to helping keep yourself more calm, level headed and happy.As psychologist William James put it, “The greatest discovery of any generation is that a human can alter his life by altering his attitude.” Here are some ways in which you can help yourself stay positive and happier.

8: I noticed with myself I didn't let myself be happy. I buried myself in work. I felt like a failure even though I was successful. I had to allow myself the right to be happy. I discovered when I went to The Institute for Integrative Nutrition to become a health coach I learned that people need to learn it's ok to be happy. It's really is ok. Sounds crazy I know but it's true most of us feel we don't have the right to be happy for whatever reason. Most of the time you don't even realize you're doing that at the time. But you follow the above advice and you will start healing and changing your mindset and smile more. In fact did you know that there was a brain study done on French monk Matthieu Ricard they discovered that when he performed a loving-kindness meditation, his brain produced gamma waves “never reported before in the neuroscience literature.” Ricard has the largest capacity for happiness ever recorded, thanks to neuroplasticity. Take the time to look up what "neuroplasticity" .

9: do something childish and something makes you happy... like blowing bubbles...

I will end here for today I have many more way to reset the mind this is just a few.

Again, if I can help you or you would like to schedule a breakthrough session or a wellness consult to focus on you and discover if working with me is a good fit contact me today.
