Get Your Glow On

Hi, and the

warmest of welcomes to "Happy Life The JJ Way".

Don’t let the title of this ezine make you think

you’re excluded!

You might be the biggest, toughest, roughest

warrior or the meekest mouse, or anyone in

between – this subject applies to you.

I'm going to show you how to get your glow on in four easy

steps.

If you are struggling right now, no matter where you are,

who you are, or why you feel life is an uphill battle, I

have something for you.

It’s not something new, but it is powerful.

The “something” I have is an idea, tried and tested. For

you to feel its power, you need to participate. All it takes

is some time (about an hour) and application from you.

Open Your Mind

have heard of before, but possibly never tried to apply to

your life.

The great Dr Wayne Dyer - one of my co-authors in The Path to Success

urged us to have a mind that is open to everything and

attached to nothing. (The wisdom originated with the Buddhist

teacher, Tilopa.)

So please set aside your attachment to knowing what won’t

work, and open your mind enough to give this a whirl.

Disaster

state of disaster was declared, due to the pandemic. Along

with the declaration came curfews and restrictions, with

which many Victorians are struggling, not to mention fear of

the virus itself and the uncertain financial future it

brings.

You may also be struggling under the same conditions, or

maybe your battle is of a totally different kind.

The cause of your unease is irrelevant.

Even if you’re not currently struggling, you will still gain

from participating in this activity. If you follow my

suggestion, your state of mind will improve enormously.

Invitation

also live in a permanent state of gratitude, and this state

ensures my happy life, irrespective of external conditions.

I invite you to join me in this state, and I promise if you

can just set aside an hour or so and apply yourself, you will

find yourself experiencing a warm glow you may not have felt

for some time – if ever.

How Do I Get My Glow On?

Tank.

When you open up that big heavy door to your Thank Think

Tank, it might be nice to invite your partner or family to

join you, so you can all get your glow on together.

I can’t think of a better family bonding activity but if you

prefer to test it out alone first, feel free. But you want

to set aside uninterrupted time in your Thank Think Tank so

you can focus and allow the glow to build.

Even if you, like me, reside in a state of gratitude, I

promise this will still be a beautiful experience for you.

If one or more of your loved ones could do with some

uplifting it will make a huge difference to them and be all

the more rewarding for you if you are able to encourage

others to participate.

2. Eliminate distractions

3. Make yourself comfortable

4. Make a list of 101 things for which you feel grateful.

It’s important to get out of your head and into your heart,

so you actually feel the gratitude as you add each

one to your list.

Examine why you’re grateful for each one.

Your glow will grow with your list and when you finish you

will be feeling like the luckiest person alive – promise.

I found it a quick and easy exercise, with glowing results.

When I conceived the idea, I wondered if it might be

difficult to reach 101 – but I could have kept going easily.

Group Glow

imagination.

If you are using this as a group activity and any of your

participants are reluctant, you could entice

them with rewards, e.g. an edible treat for every 10

additions and something bigger for a completed list – glow

necklaces (? – if your hubby’s a truckie then I’m sorry

you’re on your own thinking up a reward ).

If your participants are children, it is also important that

they don’t just focus on adding items to the list – a

conversation around why they feel grateful may be in order –

it’s the feelings that will bring the glow – not just

adding items to a list.

The real reward lies in the glow of gratitude they will

experience during the process, but if your participants are

children you might need to have a conversation around how

they are feeling upon completion.

Encourage your participants to keep their list and display

it somewhere prominent so their glow is always within

reach. You could encourage them to add to it regularly, or

make this a regular family/group activity.

Your Gift

and they will never feel dissatisfied with life.

You will never struggle with outside conditions because your

happy life is taking place right here with me in a state of

gratitude.

What better gift could you present to your loved ones?

I certainly hope you accept this gift from me to you and use

it to ensure you continue to Live Life Happy!

Keep your Glow List for future reference.

Next time you’re feeling a bit low, get your glow on!
