3 easy tips how to feel better
What makes our days, and what causes low mood? Is it what´s happening to us, or how do we see it? We can influence only a part of what is around us but how we respond to it is all in our hands. If we end up in the middle of an urgent storm of negative thoughts, we have entered a space where we think and act out of rational control. But if we clear our minds throughout the day instantly, we can stop the first signs of being overwhelmed by dark clouds.
This practice does not require much effort or time and brings an instant relief. It ceases us from diving again and again into seeing the negative aspects of life and it is similar to cleaning the house. When our mind is free and open, we can observe the world more clearly, understand without judging, and see circumstances of circumstances.

We can perceive everything around us as more attractive.
Imagine there is a perfect restroom in your head and whatever happens, you can come in, step in for a bit of freshness, and then go back on.
These tips correspond with an open world of childhood where time did not rule over the days when the momentum was the KINGDOM. The clue lies in making the brain busy with repetitive, monotonous, simple focus tasks. The brain is hard at work, and the soul can have a rest.

1. PICK ONE WORD (positive or neutral from an actual thought- a sentence currently flying in your head) and MAKE from this word A SONG (Mantra).
For everyone has each word its different connotation (its vibration)- based on language, culture, family, socioeconomic condition, and life experience.
It is calming in a way that reminds us of what we all did in early childhood, what little kids do when they learn to speak and understand the meaning of the words.
2. SLOW THE BRAIN
When we start to think in foreign languages, all the brain capacity goes to translating process to find the appropriate expression.
There is no place for:
* judging
* fear
* comparing
* catastrophizing
* criticism
Describe what you see around yourself and, after a while, you can go inside your body. Observe what is going on and how you feel. All in a foreign language. The easiest, the better. (More about this method here: Beyond the positive and the negative thoughts )
Swiping the brain into another language helps us concentrate fully on task, and the soul can rest. On top of it our mind is focused on present, what is around us and what we feel.
3. CREATE something with your hands that is in harmony with nature
We were born to create and perceive the world with our senses. They naturally desire nourishment, but instead of seeking beauty and satisfaction in creation that is senseful (all our senses are fully present), we seek beauty outside.
Here takes root the hunt for consuming new things, things with better functions, excitement, and cultural and sports events.
But when we start to create something, to join senses, mind, body, heart, soul, brain, and Ego, our whole existence can unite in the present moment. We find such different, immense satisfaction inside that we do not want to search for it anymore from the outside.
From the point of a clear mind, all the circumstances are enlightened. We can more deeply understand with our whole hearts that everything is as it is and see the beauty around or inside others without the urge to possess it. We get less stuck by the negative thoughts inside. Nothing frightening and stressful from the outside can put us down because there is nothing to resonate with.
These 3 easy activities can help you find again the bright sky above your head.
Any time of the day when you spot clouds in the heavens, try to connect with your soul!
