12 Keys To A Happy Life; And None of Them Has Anything to Do With Eating Kale
In my health coaching practice I distinguish between the food we eat and what I call Soul Food. Soul Food is the way we nourish ourselves in the areas of relationships. exercise, sleep, career, creativity and spirituality to name a few.
This is the first of several blogs I’m going to dedicate to these topics, because broccoli alone isn’t enough to bring us overall health, wellbeing, and happiness.
In this blog I want to touch on spirituality, and share the Rawception 12 keys to a conscious life. These are all bits of ancient wisdom that I’ve picked up along the way after 55 years on this earth. Here are my 12 Keys to happiness.
Don’t wait for something to happen to make you happy. Be happy now.
Focus your energy on the good things you already have and approach life from a place of gratitude and plentitude. That’s how more good things will come. Not by focusing on what you do not have.
Make macro goals and celebrate mini accomplishments.
Focus more on the meaning in life, rather than how we measure life.
Think about “who am I” rather than “what have I done”.
Consider "how compassionate, kind and generous was I today", rather than "how many Instagram followers did I get”.
Instead of telling the story of "what’s happened to you", change that to "what’s happening inside of you"
Convert “what can I get today", to “what can I give today".
Be aware of the present moment, and set aside time to make plans for the future.
Remember, fulfillment is success: achievements are not fulfillment.
We don’t see the world as it is, we see it as we are.
Accept what is, because it is.
More soon, xx Nicolle
