I recently discovered a great technique from Mo Gawdat on how to get into a state of happiness within 7 seconds.  I’ve been using it with clients with great results in my Distance Healing Sessions.

Before I tell you the technique, I will define happiness and unhappiness.

Happiness occurs when life meets or beats your expectations of an experience or event. 

For example, is you go out for dinner and the meal you have is as good as you expected it to be or better.

Whereas Unhappiness occurs when an experience or event doesn’t meet your expectations. 

An example of unhappiness: you go out for dinner and the meal is worse that you expected.

The common denominator with happiness and unhappiness are thoughts.

80% of unhappiness is due to negative thoughts.

Consider when you feel unhappy as a survival mechanism and a signal to take specific actions if you want to return to happiness. 

The first thing to do is acknowledge you feel unhappy. 

The second thing is: What is the trigger? 

If it’s a situation in the world like a flood or war on the other side of the world.  Has your life changed at all from it?

If not, can you accept it?  And can you do anything about it? 

Ask yourself the questions: “What can I do about it, how can I make the world a better place from this situation that triggered my unhappiness or how can I become stronger from the situation?” 

These questions take you out the of emotional and stressful thoughts (feeling helpless/hopeless) into acceptance and or action thoughts.

When you discover the trigger of your unhappiness, ask yourself whether the thought is true or false? 

I work with many people that suffer from depression and anxiety.  Many of their feelings are the result of believing a lie that was either told to them when they were young, or they told themselves from a negative experience they had.

Have you ever been bullied by someone that resulted in you not feeling good about yourself and unloved.

If you continued to tell yourself the lie that you are not good enough and unloved it results in feeling more stressed and symptoms of chronic stress.

Chronic Stress Symptoms

• Easily triggered
• Emotional withdrawal
• Suppressing yourself
• Fearful of expressing yourself
• Shame
• Guilt
• Decreased immunity
• Chest tightness
• Trouble letting go
• Low energy
• Sleeping problems and insomnia
• Unfocused and cloudy thinking
• Changes in appetite
• Aches and pains
• Increase in alcohol and drug use

Diseases associated with chronic stress are linked to other conditions, both psychological and physical. These include:

• Hypertension, heart disease, obesity and metabolic syndrome, Type II diabetes, and arthritis
• Addiction to alcohol, nicotine and/or prescription drugs, and behavioral-related such as addiction to the internet, food, or gambling
• Mood disorders and anxiety disorders, which are common secondary diagnoses for people with chronic stress.

Hypertension, depression, addiction, and anxiety disorders are the conditions most related to chronic stress.

If you can relate to living in chronic stress, take the following steps to overcome it.

• Acknowledge your unhappy (negative feelings).
• Write out the thoughts you have that trigger your stress. 
• Ask yourself are the thoughts true or false?  (FYI: all thoughts of not being good enough and unlovable are a lie.) If they are false let them go by taking 10 deep breaths. Close your eyes, focus on the center of your chest, and say to yourself, “I release any lies that I tell myself that are not serving me in my highest and greatest good.”  Notice how you feel when you say this.  

By saying this prayer, you are giving your soul and God permission to cleanse the lies from you. 

• If it is True.  Ask yourself, “What can I do to fix it?”

This moves you into the problem-solving part of your brain and helps make you and the world a better place.

• If you can’t do anything about it and things can’t change.  Like someone dying in a car accident or stuck in traffic.  Ask yourself, “Can I accept the situation or experience and make my life better despite the problem."

Make sure that you go to happy and useful thoughts. 

If your thoughts aren’t useful, tell your brain not to give you thoughts that aren’t helpful. 

On average it takes 21 days to remove negativity and change the brain.  So be patient and persistent.

By investing 5-10mins into improving your mindset every day and how you interpret stress you will spend much more time feeling happy than you ever had before.

Have you ever felt stressed during traffic jam, gotten upset to the point of wanting to yell.  

This happens because your nervous system is conditioned to react stressfully in that situation. 

But what if you could respond differently.  Rather than freakout, take some deep breaths and realize “I’m a traffic jam, how can I make the best use of my time right now?”

By doing this you avoid excess stress and emotional pain, along with wasting energy on being unproductive.   In turn you make better use of your time and create more healthy energy for yourself.

Some things you can to are  call a friend, listen to a podcast or good music, tell yourself, “I love myself unconditionally,” or remind yourself how grateful you are to have a car. These are just a few examples.  There are a number of things you can do to increase your wellness during that time….

How do you Regulate the Nervous System?

• Practice

What are your stress triggers?

Take a moment and write them down.

Examples of Stress Triggers:

• Weather
• Politics
• Family members
• Loud noises
• Violence
• Certain smells
• Your work/job
• Travel
• The unknown
• Meeting new people
• Your health
• Money

How to Heal Stress Triggers

• Go to calm relaxing space like a quiet room or out in nature. 
• Take 10 deep breaths
• Get into a calm state of mind
• Close your eyes and visualize being in the situation that normally triggers you, but instead being calm and peaceful in it.
• See yourself handling the situation with ease. 

Example: see yourself having a positive interaction with the family member that normally stresses you out.  See yourself being present with them and listening to them.  See yourself articulating your thoughts and feelings in a calm manner to them. 

Practice doing this until you feel peaceful about the situation that used to stress you out. 

Don’t be surprised how good you feel in that situation next time you are in it. 

Have you ever worried about getting together with family over the holidays because one or more members has a tendency to make you feel uncomfortable?  And do you wish these people could just be nicer and more compassionate? 

Me too.  I used to struggle with judging people before getting together due to some stressful interactions in the past.  As a result, this made me even more stressed and worried something bad might happen again. 

That all changed years ago when I discovered a simple Energy Healing Technique that helped me let go of old pain and heal those relationships.

This is something I have been doing for many years and I feel that it has been a huge factor in my development and nourishing of my healing abilities, along with the maintenance of my own health.

What I am referring to is Meditating with a Tree. 

You know that feeling when you go for a walk or spend time in a forest; how relaxed and balanced you feel during and after.

That is because you are taking in some of the healing energies available to you.  So, what if you took the time to place your hands on a healthy tree and allowed yourself to feel the energy that it wants to share with you on an even deeper level?

This is what I do.  More specifically, I ask if the tree has a message for me, if it has a healing for me and if it has anything it wants to share with me.

You see trees have spirits too, they are alive, and they communicate through frequency.  Once you attune to the frequency you can understand their language. But that is for another conversation. 

If you want to increase your life force, as in help your body be and feel healthier, heal faster from illnesses and injuries, become more adaptable to stress, increase your intuition and simple become more resilient I recommend doing this simple of act of Meditating with a Tree.

The act of Meditating with Trees has a long history and there are many great people throughout history that proclaimed they gained healing power and enlightenment via meditating with a tree.

Two specific people are Buddha and Jesus Christ. 

How I Meditate with a TREE 

The way I meditate with a tree is I look for a strong healthy tree somewhere where I will not be disturbed (this can even be in your own yard).  I stand in front of it placing my hands on the trunk in a comfortable location with my eyes closed.  I breath naturally and allow myself to feel the energy of the tree. 

The more you do this the more sensitive you become to the subtle energy of the tree. 

If you have never done this before I recommend using the same tree daily to develop a relationship with it.  You will be amazed that overtime you will feel the love from that tree before you even touch it because it will be projecting to you when you are close by and even from further distances. 

To help deepen your relationship with the tree ask it questions like the ones I wrote above.  Along with asking it, “is there anything I can do for you?”  Trees love it when you give back to them.  This can be as simple of projecting love to them or visualizing them healthy. 

If you are hearing for the first time, it might sound strange.  But, think about it, you have nothing to lose.  If anything, you have much to gain. 

I’d love to hear from you.  Let me know if you have ever meditated with a tree and what your experience was like?

Firstly, I want to mention that as soon as Keri and I found out we were exposed to suspected Covid-19 cases, we went into self-isolation.  5 days later it was confirmed that the people we were exposed to tested positive.

We were lucky that the doctor that exposed us reached out to let us know, so we could begin taking the precautions.   

During our 14-day family isolation, I realized even more how grateful I am to have such an amazing intuitive knowledgeable wife (Keri). 

Before our exposure we began stocking up on specific immune boosting supplements in case we needed them.  Plus, we already had several high-quality essential oils in our house, which are also great for supporting immunity. 

Keri has over 20yrs of training and education in natural medicine, which include a diploma in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), practitioner in Functional Medicine and studying to be a Dr. of Natural Medicine. So she knew the what we needed to be taking, plus therapeutic doses we needed.

I learned how efficient my immune system is.  Out of all 4 of us (Keri and my 2 daughters) I had the least of the symptoms.  We were all taking the same supplements and essential oils, but the main difference with me is I do specific energy healing techniques daily that boost my ability to heal faster and clear stress. 

I learned that I have a very supportive community both online and in person.  We had many people praying for us, along with buying us groceries and checking in on us daily to make sure we were ok. 

Thank you, if you were one of those people. 

Lastly, what I learned is I would like to move onto a big piece of property to be able to still go outside, get fresh air, sunshine and connect with nature during times like this because it is really important for my physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. 

How about you, I know your situation is different than mine.  Is there anything that you’ve learned about yourself during this Covid-19 pandemic?

I'd love to hear. Comment below.

My family and I were exposed to Covid-19 on March 24.  First of all I want to let you know we are all doing good.  

We have all experienced some minor symptoms that have come and gone like sore throat, mild coughing, loss of sense of smell temporary and headaches.  Thankfully no breathing troubles or fevers.

I know we will overcome this because we have strong immune systems from eating well and we are taking specific supplements and essential oils that are supporting are immunity during this time.

One thing Keri and I made sure to do when we first heard about Covid-19 was to make sure we had the supplements and essential oils in our house we needed in case we did get exposed.  

Another thing I do everyday is to make sure that I am connecting with the energy of unconditional love everyday. 

Unconditional love boosts immunity, promotes healing and clears stress.  Something that is very important with all the fear and scarcity right now. 

Information is power my friend and I want to let you know that Keri (my wife) and I are sharing everything we are doing in specific details and why we are doing it to optimize our health during Covid-19 and our recent exposure.

There are 4 steps for Distance Energy Healing

1. Connect with the person energetically.

2. Ask what is going on with the person.  Example of a question is, "What is the root cause of the person's pain?"

3. Listen.  Using my intuitive abilities I listen, feel, see or know the answer to their symptoms.

4. Heal. Once I know the root cause, I ask what the person needs in order to heal from their symptoms. 

Often the person needs a specific high vibrating frequency like Unconditional Love to heal.  So, I direct that frequency to the person to promote healing and repair.
