How to Feel Good Every Day (or close enough :))

I’m a big fan of feeling good.

I’ll go so far as to state my belief that feeling good is an essential if not the main key to achieving what you want in life – be that security, happiness, love, money, or success.

When you feel good, you magnetise more good things to come your way. Your focus also tends to be more on opportunities, ideas, people, places, and situations that ‘feed’ those good feelings.

This is when you set off a chain reaction – linking one good feeling to the next good feeling, one good idea to the next good idea, and one good opportunity to the next good opportunity, doors and paths seem to open up that didn’t even exist or occur to you before

Until before you know it and as if by sheer luck, the things you desire in life are suddenly before you.

Here’s a formula I use that helps me to feel good every day (or close enough :)).

I ‘reverse-engineer’ my dreams.

I start at the ‘outcome’

I work on being crystal clear on what I want in the future. So clear in fact that the dream even has colour, sounds and yes even smells 😅

… i.e when I dream of working remotely on a beach paradise location? I smell the salt of the ocean, feel the warm breeze, and see the amazingly clear blue of the water reflected by the great blue cloudless sky; I experience every sensation in my dreams.

Then I work my way backwards to where I am now in the present…firstly being grateful for everything I already have…and then thinking of ‘small’ do-able things I can do, to make that dream a reality… and I simply keep doing those things…every-single-day.

They’re small enough that they are absolutely achievable – So it could be simple things like putting up a picture of the beach on my vision board, learning more about the island I want to go to, or speaking to people who already live the kind of lifestyle I want, and learning and applying how they did it.

Anything and everything I do and complete on a daily basis towards that dream?… I count it as a ‘success” for that day, no matter how small the ‘win.

This is how I nurture and maintain a mindset of feeling good, being optimistic and ‘certain’ that I’m on my way towards living that dream someday very soon.

Focus your ENERGY on Feeling Good

Ever notice how when you’re feeling great, good things just seem to happen naturally and effortlessly for you?

And when you’re feeling not so great, the opposite happens. Someone could even greet you in a pleasant, lovely way – and it only makes you more annoyed 😅

I believe that Feelings are DIRECTLY connected (and the key) to what we create and make happen in our lives (good or bad).

To keep things simple, this is what I believe… Once you know (and are clear about) what you want: Ask the Universe for it.

Then get the f*** out of the way 😅

And you do that…by working on your ‘energy’. Work on feeling good…constantly.

Whether you do this by taking time out… self-reflection… self-love…physically working your body and flooding it with endorphins…surrounding yourself with good people…communing with the beauty of nature….spending time with a 5-year-old…listening to the nostalgic stories of an 85-year-old…

Do whatever works…to make you feel good.

Because only after all the ‘blocks’ are removed in your life…can your dreams find their way to you.

After you’ve clearly asked for what you want and continually work on feeling loving, positive, happy & grateful…

Relax and allow your dreams to come to you.

How to Feel Powerful & Centred INSTANTLY – Part II

So this is Part II of Feeling Powerful & Centred!

If you missed Part I?…you can check it out here.

Then come back to this post.

But if you’ve been good and read the first one? Then carry on reading!

What I’m about to share with you is something I picked up at a recent event I attended and I loved it so much I want you to benefit from it as well.

This is great for moments when you may need to steady yourself, if ever you feel unsettled or just need that extra boost of confidence & strength.

I believe the term for it is “anchoring” which is when you use positive emotions or words to “trigger” positive emotions. What I’m about to show you uses that principle…but also something physical that takes it to another level : )

This works with or without a physical object – but let’s start with an example that uses one.

Find a chair, or table…put your hands on it, grip it if you can. Close your eyes, and breathe rhythmically focusing on your breathing to start with.

Then as you continue breathing…start to also focus your attention to the grip you have on the chair… Notice the centeredness you feel as you draw strength from the chair and your grip And feel how it all roots you solidly in place.

I actually didn’t use a chair when I did this!

But it still works perfectly well without one. What you would do, is close your eyes, focus on your breathing, just like I described above..

Except this time Instead of a chair…you would focus on your legs and feet and how connected and rooted they are to the ground.

Imagine yourself drawing strength, certainty and power by simply using the natural earth beneath you.

Let me know what you think and if this works out for you. Would love to hear from you!
