Green Options

We all need a little encouragement from time to time. Sometimes we may turn to friends and family to give us that tender care and loving boost, yet truly the best person to turn to is yourself. Here are some strategies I’m working on that boost joy and self confidence:

1. List out your mood boosters: Create your own personal mantra or song like that famous tune Favorite Things: “raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens..” from the Sound of Music. Or if that doesn’t ring your bell visit sites like Things to Be Happy About, to lighten up when life gets heavy.
2. Think of something cute: Visit cute overload from time to time, to remember how adorable and fun life can be. When you’re smiling, you exude confidence!
3. Live in the moment by meditating: Meditation helps, and it is something we’ve discussed at length as a way to ease stress and bring us back around to feeling peaceful.

It’s no “secret” — karma works online! Thanks to Brad and Peter for another good one. If you liked this, take a look at other “Shades of Green” strips.

You will lift yourself, and as you lift yourself, you lift the entire world.”

I subscribe to the Secret Scrolls which recently offered this gift of visual bliss called Planet Earth
