Nutrition and health
In this blog I have historically offered numerous ways and ideas on how to deal with physical, mental and emotional stresses. It has only been recently that I have realized that Neurological and biochemical deficiencies and imbalances also effect physical, mental and emotional behaviour and that these deficiencies can often be related to nutritional intake and the exposure to incompatible environmental substances in the environment around you. It is also true that your brain can be stimulated to produce chemistry and behavior that appears to be missing by consciously and intentionally altering internal and external processes and actions.
In today's installment of How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less, I want you to focus on what you give your body at each meal. For 2 minutes before each meal consider if what you are giving your body is consistent with what it requires to function properly. This will also mean that you are to spend five minutes after eating researching what a body of your type requires on a daily basis in volume and nutritional. After researching what your body may need, experiment by altering your meals for a week and notice and feel if there is any difference.
Take thirty seconds before and after every meal to just be thankful for the food before you eat it...food is energy. Your emotional energy leaves your body in either concentric spheres or as a stream when directed specifically at someone or something...this means your attention effects, by some degree, external and internal matter and how your body will interact with and digest the food.
Put yourself fully into this process and leave a comment about your experience.
And
Have a GREAT DAY!!

Emotion IS your power
Given the choice between pleasure and pain, joy and sorrow, anger and peace, empowerment and helplessness, it would seem that there is an obvious choice to be made between them.
However this is not entirely true. It is true that the positives are ultimately the experiences we want to have, yet viewed from a perspective of pure energy....all emotion IS energy. In fact Emotions ARE the energy we use to generate behavior which in turn creates the dynamic interactions between ourselves and all other people and living things.
Your emotions start as a movement of electrons in your brain and flow from the judgements you make based on your perception of the moment. Your perception of the moment may be colored by your past or you may experience the moment as it is. Many people automatically allow the past to impair their experience of the the present and by doing so may create conflicts based on a past present and not on the actuality of the present. Knowing how to change your emotional energy and thought forms can be a big step forward towards living in the present as it is and becoming who you really want to be (and not just continuing on in your life being who you've been taught to think you should be.)
In today's Blog on How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less I'm going to share with you a simple technique for transforming emotional energy and bringing yourself into the now, without having to fight with negative feelings.
When I first learned that my emotions are the energy I have to create my life with and that I could change them at will I was thrilled with the idea that my emotions aren't who I am. Your emotions too are the power you have to transform your life...quickly and easily...positively or negatively.
I found myself in a strange new world those many years ago when I got it, that my emotions were were effects of thoughts in my mind. At that time many of the thoughts in my mind were from other people and media. I began choosing the thoughts I wanted to think...instead of just allowing any thought to flow through my head. And this is the first suggestion for you to try out in your life;
Spend time as often as you can watching the thoughts in your mind in different situations and ask yourself this question. Does this though represent and support who I really want to be and become? If you decide that it isn't a thought that truly represents you, replace it with a thought you think does represent you and notice how the new thought makes you feel.
Now the second part of this requires that you notice any feelings that are uncomfortable. These feelings may come from the thoughts you are changing, they may come from thoughts that people are presenting to you...it doesn't matter where they come from as this part of the activity is to show you how to change your emotional energy by interacting with negative feelings differently than you normally would.
Most of us try to avoid negative emotions....in fact there is a huge pharmaceutical industry designed to help us not feel negative feelings. Yet your emotions are your energy and to deny them is to deny your power...yet you can't just allow negative feelings to go on all the time in your mind as it is detrimental to your nervous system over an extended period. So to change that from happening whenever you are aware of negative emotions, I want you to choose a label for it;
i.e. I call this Fear, worry, doubt, anger, rage, sadness, depression.
Now once you've labelled it I want you to say or think inwardly towards that feeling the following statement in a voice or internal voice that sounds like you really mean it;
Even though you are ___(insert the label you've chosen here)___ and I don't understand you....I'm willing to love and accept you.
Once you've made this statement towards the labeled emotion in a tone of voice or internal tone of voice that sounds like you really mean it...notice how the feeling changes. Notice how your body changes. If the feeling is still intense, repeat the statement a few more times, each time make yourself sound more and more like you mean what you are stating.
Every time you repeat these activities pause and notice how you feel and notice how your emotions change and how the change in emotion alters your body.
And
Have a GREAT DAY!!

Two tools for quick relaxation and deeper sleeps.
You're dealing with children, friends, driving, working, gardening, cooking,watching television or on the computer. Your attention is occupied with a task at hand and until you stop you aren't aware of all the background noise going on in your head. Once you are unoccupied by the demands of the world around you an internal din begins to emerge inside your head, a growing stampede of thoughts, emotions, memories possibilities and concerns. At night especially you may be among the millions of people that suffer from an endless churning of head stuff that steals much needed rest for your body, mind and Soul.
In today's installment of "How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less" I'm going to give you two tools I've used for many years that will enable you to quiet your mind and body almost anywhere at anytime. The activity only takes about a minute though it can be prolonged to last as long as you need to apply it. If you can, stop what you are doing for a minute and then notice what starts to take place in your mind. If you cannot stop what you are doing at this time, pick another time when it is safe and practical to do.
To get started stand or sit comfortably where you are, or move to a place where you can feel more comfortable, then close your eyes and observe what you can notice going on in your mind. Now put your attention on your breathing and take three long-slow deep breaths, hold them for a few moments and release your breath and feel your body automatically let go of tension as your body exhales. Each time you exhale you will notice more and more muscles relaxing. Take more breathes if you want the relax your body more fully and completely. you may also realize that your mind has also become a little more rested from the breathing.
After you feel you've done enough breathing turn your awareness to what is still happening in your mind. Are there mostly thoughts? feelings? Pictures? Memories? or imaginings about the future? Whatever they are for you look intently for the spaces between words, pictures and feelings...much the same as you could look for the spaces that you see between these written words...for they exist in your mind to. As you begin to notice the space between thoughts feelings and images, notice how those space feel and allow yourself to feel it. Most of my clients find themselves falling asleep at this stage, some just find that everything becomes quiet and they feel peaceful.
As I mentioned earlier you can extend the time you spend focusing on your breathing as this will naturally deepen the relaxation of your body while also oxygenating the inside of the body. Practice this at every opportunity that you can. You may fins this especially relaxing and healing when you are going to sleep at night.
As a footnote to this activity I want to add that sometimes negative mental and emotional states can be a result of poor nutrition in your body. Make certain that you eat frequently enough to give your body and mind the right amount of fuel to run correctly. If you aren't eating enough and properly, some of the mental, emotional static you may have can be an effect of deficiencies in key minerals vitamins and proteins in your body. As a life coach I was recently made aware of this fact through personal experience and have since made the inclusion of nutrition a key component of the guidance process for my self, my friends, family and clients. Peace
Have a Great Day!!

Changing emotional energy.
In keeping with the growing spirit of HOW TO BE HAPPY IN FIFTEEN MINUTES OR LESS, I want you to consider the following;
If you resist, deny or hide from negative emotions you actually give them more power.
Wherever we place our attention the mood, feelings, thoughts and ideas we hold in our mind send a flow of electrons (near invisible energy) in that direction. Whatever is the quality of the mood, feeling, thoughts and ideas, the flow of electrons will carry a positive or negative charge to match the degree and intensity of them. In today's installment of How to be Happy in fifteen minutes or less, I'm going to give you a simple tool for increasing the strength of positive energy attention that will also reduce and transform negative energy into and back towards positive.
Energy is energy. The only difference between one form of emotional energy or another is the degree by which we experience it as positive or negative. Energy cannot be created or destroyed...but is can be changed and is always changing. With your awareness you have the ability to intentionally alter by various degrees, your emotions from one state to another by an act of your imagination and will. No matter how negative or positive you feel at this moment, when you do the following activity with sincere effort...you will feel an almost immediate change.
If you are feeling predominately negative prior to doing the following exercise and apply the activity earnestly, you will feel your mind begin to calm and your body increase in relaxation. If you are feeling predominately positive as you do the exercise you will feel an increase in your positivity. At any time, night or day you can use the following tool as you need to. This is very easy to do for some, and a little harder for others, yet if it is practiced it gets very easy and the changes occur faster. On this note, get into a comfortable position in a chair. Although you can do this exercise in any position, sitting allows you to notice physical and emotional change easier as sitting reduces distractions.
From the position you've chosen to be in, make sure your body is as comfortable as possible, then take three slow, deep breaths and feel what your body feels each time you exhale. You will notice your body naturally releases tension when it exhales and as you breath in each time you draw in fresh energy in the form of oxygen, which increases circulation and vitality.
Next turn your attention the the feeling and thoughts in your mind...notice what they about are as if you are watching them on a movie screen. they will likely be about the past and future, they may be positive or negative. No matter what they are, I want you think the following thought Slowly and deliberately three times in a row, towards what you are noticing in you mind. Make your internal voice sound like you really mean these words...make the words sound as sincere as you can and notice what changes in your body and your feelings with each time you say these words;
"I'm willing to love you...even if I do not understand you."
Notice what changes.
"I'm willing to love you...even if I do not understand you."
Notice what else changes.
"I'm willing to love you...even if I do not understand you."
Repeat longer if you like.
Compare how you feel now to before you started.
Why this works for so many people;
Your subconscious mind...that part of your mind where all your thoughts, emotions and memories are stored cannot distinguish between fantasy and reality...(I'll prove this in my next blog.) and just reacts to the tone and intention without question.
With social awareness expanding towards healing mental illness simple tools like this will become common place.
Have an awe-fillied day!!

Open your heart
William Michael Forbes
Your heart is that place inside you which can never die, never be born and will always create and recreate. wmf
A Well Known Fact: You can never be created or destroyed…you can only change…just like all else that is.
Change…it is happening to all of us…it is occurring in all of us at each and every moment. Even now your food is digesting…your mind is thinking…thoughts are constantly flowing from your conscious to your unconscious in a marvelous dynamism. We are all dynamisms…forever changing consciously or unconsciously…for better or for worse. Most people do not even recognize the changes that are occurring in their lives…unless they are really obvious…those who are aware delicately pay attention to the subtle, incremental changes as they lead them to higher levels of perception and growth.
Today for 2 minutes every hour, for the next 7 hours, allow yourself to feel the changes as they occur both within and around you…you may observe the obvious physical and sensorial changes…but also, pay attention to the changes in your feelings as they occur too and…
Have a great day!

Live mindfully
William Michael Forbes
The range of expressions that humans can produce for themselves; from a bum on the street to the thousand pound man, to the Sages, Artists and poets, dictatorial madmen and politicians…fills my mind with sadness, wonder and joy wmf
A Well Known Fact: Without knowledge life seems like a problem, accident or a mistake…Reason is the first breath of happiness.
When you wake up in the morning…do your thoughts and feelings take you immediately to joy and the possibilities of another amazing day? Or does your mind track into familiar, redundant and painful thoughts of drudgery? Do you even know that you have a choice to think the thoughts you want? Do you even believe that you are thinking your own thoughts? Today’s blog is a chance to become a little more conscious of what you are thinking and to have the opportunity to change them as they occur…and with this in mind for two minutes of each of the next eight hours…make sure the thoughts you think are thoughts that will incline you to feel better about yourself and then allow yourself to act according to those thoughts and

Stand up and open up
William Michael Forbes
.
People only have a difficult time with themselves and when they cannot see these…they will blame wmf
A Well Known Fact: Emotion does not come from out there.
Today is very simple and it is called stand up. Wherever you are…for 2 minutes for each of the next seven hours…Stand up and spread your arms wide wherever you are. Notice if any part of you feels uncomfortable…does any part of you worry about what others think? Does any part of you want to stop before the two minutes is up because of those feelings? While doing this activity…try and get to a place where you feel good just being as you are, irrespective og what your mind might tell you about what others think, feel or believe. Avoid doing this in places where you will easily feel safe…do this in places where you will be able to connect to and then love any negative aspects of yourself…in other words…if you feel fearful, guilty, silly, like you “shouldn’t” be doing this…let those parts of yourself know that you really love them…even if you don’t think you believe it…
Life is about being all that you are fearlessly and sometimes even with the fear and…

One of the biggest misconceptions about life is that our emotions are an effect of what is outside of us....when in fact they are always existent only within us wmf
A Well Known Fact: The world around us stimulates that which is already within us or not.
How often have you tried to overcome something you were afraid of with sheer willpower?
Whether you have fear of relationship, a fear of bugs, a fear of snakes, a fear of heights...any kind of fear...willpower can only take you so far because you are trying to force one part of yourself to submit to another and this isn’t much different than using fear as a means to acquire co-operation from someone...it doesn’t work well and it alienates others from you. Fear has historically been used by barbaric individuals to control others...tools such as superstition, religion, dictatorships, the projecting of guilt and shame and ultimately when these do not work, physical force. Today’s blog is about guiding you beyond your fear by loving it.
The process for overcoming any fear in a healthy and positive way is love. Love is the ultimate perception of good that any human individual can conceive of at whatever stage of development they exist at...therefore any internal perception of “good feeling” is a degree and expression of love for the individual...it is what I teach people to become aware of within themselves and this awareness naturally and positively inspires growth. With this idea in mind here is your activity for how to be happy in fifteen minutes or less.
During this day, for two minutes in each of the next seven hours, recognize fear when it is happening...notice anything that makes you anxious, nervous, uncomfortable and when you do take a deep breath and become aware of where you feel that fear in yourself...it might help to close your eyes and feel the fear more internally...then as you become more aware of the fear think or say to the fear in a tone of voice that sounds like you really mean this...”I Love you...I will take care of you...” You are perfectly safe with me and then notice and feel how the feeling inside you changes. If you are dealing with a fear of heights or insects or people...close your eyes feel the feat on the inside and repeat the same statement to the fear as either a thought or feeling...” ”I Love you...I will take care of you...” it is most important that the way you present these words to yourself be in a tone of voice that sounds like you really mean it...then notice how the feeling changes and...
Have a great day!

With no past to hold you.
William Michael Forbes
Many of our mistakes are unconsciously made and supported by the past view of ourselves...a now view of ourselves would will liberate us from our past. wmf
A Well Known Fact: Sub-atomic and quantum particles of energy respond instantly to our thoughts and ideas.
Our past is not who we are...it is a record of what we have experienced and created. What we have created and what we create is based on what we have been told to think and believe and also a result of what we choose to think independently of what we have been taught. Operating exclusively from what you have been taught will result in a consistent resurrection of the past in your present...operating from the now, independent of past influences will result in creative results that reflect who and what you choose to think, feel and believe.
Moving ourselves out of the past and into the present of who we are as a living Soul, requires that we do two things consistently;
1. When we make choices and take action to question what, if any, influences from my past am I allowing into this process? And
2. Do I feel unique and empowered thinking and doing the way i am at this time?
This brings us to today lesson on “How to be happy in fifteen minutes or less.”
For two minutes for the next seven hours, any task or job or social interaction you find yourself in today, ask yourself these questions;...Am I doing this activity in a fresh and dynamic way? Do I feel excited by what I’m doing? Is there another way I can do what I’m doing and feel even better about it?
Notice how your body and mind responds as you ask those questions...allow yourself to change what you are doing based on your responses and observe how the world around you responds as you do...are you afraid or excited? Try to respond from your present and not your past and...
Have a great day!
