Choose Your Mood: The Power of Kindness by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

By Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

One of my favorite things to do when I have had a difficult day is to do something kind for someone else. I know that sounds counter intuitive and that we need to be kind to ourselves too, but sincerely, nothing assists in changing my mood faster than fostering kindness. It pulls my focus away from myself and it is a gift that gives back.

Yes, there are times a hot bath, a massage, or a new pair of shoes does do the trick, but a quick, free, and easy way to change my mood is to show some kindness to another being. Smiling at a child when you don’t feel like it.  Kissing them on the head when you feel like screaming at them.  Taking a minute to scratch your dog’s belly in the midst of chaos can reset that internal meter that is running out of steam.

Kindness is often repaid with kindness so don’t be surprised if you find yourself the recipient of another’s act of kindness back. Now that’s a mood booster times two!

Choose Your Mood: The Power of Faith by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

By Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

There are times in our lives when things seem too heavy to carry.  Everyone goes through this; if this is happening to you right now you are not alone.  I have been there. We all have been there.  For me, that’s where the power of faith has the ability to move mountains.

It doesn’t matter who or what you believe, faith is believing that there is something greater than ourselves. I believe this perception can make all the difference in the world. If more people could embrace the concept of our earthly limits and embrace with compassion our sameness, empathy would be plentiful. Bringing faith into your daily life through prayer, practice, and meditation can lighten even the most fatiguing of loads. To give up seeking control over those things we fundamentally can not control, allows us to use our energy in other places.

The power of faith can move mountains if we let it and it works pretty darn good on molehills, too.  If it’s been a long time since you have connected with your faith, then now is the time to do so. It’s another great tool in the arsenal of life.  When you have faith and remember to move your feet, it’s amazing what you can do!

Choose Your Mood: The Power of Your Internal Dialogue by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

Lifetherapy Lynette Lovelace

By Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

You know that little voice inside your head? I have heard it called internal dialogue, the inside chatterbox, the devil or angel on your shoulder and the monkey on your back. What we say to ourselves inside our own minds is a great predictor of happiness and success.

If our inner dialogue is loving and encouraging, as in “you can do this” and “I believe in you” we see people try, grow, and learn in ways other people can’t even imagine.  If our inner dialogue is dire and dark, as in “you can’t do this” or “you’re never going to get it” we stop trying. Negativity is insidious, what should be a light burning inside of us is easily stifled. All of you Mamas out there know you would not tolerate the school bully filling up your child’s head with such.  Why would you subject yourself to it?

Learning to listen to your internal dialogue is as simple as taking a piece of paper and jotting down what you are saying to yourself. If you find you are unkind to yourself it is time to make some changes. Switch that station! We are most often our own worst critics and enemies. If we don’t manage our own thoughts and feelings, we are diminishing ourselves from being our true best. You deserve that, you deserve the kindness of self that you would offer up so lavishly onto a dear friend. Be gentle and good to yourself, monitor the chatter and only subscribe to that which serves you.

Choose Your Mood: The Power of Generosity by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

Lifetherapy Lynette Lovelace

By Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

I give away things all the time.  It’s amazing how much passes through my hands on the way to its final destination.  You see, I find that is not good to hold on too tightly to things. It stops the energy. It stops the flow of the universe if you ask me.

When I am generous with myself, my time, and my money, I find that strange things start to happen.  The world feels like a better place. I feel a whole lot happier and content. And people around me seem to buoy the spirit that fills each and every one of us with a joyous spirit.

The power of generosity can end war.  It can cure disease. It can mend broken fences and build powerful bridges.  Generosity often comes full circle as it reveals itself and reinforces that it truly is better to give than to receive, and that the gifts we receive far out shine anything we have been able to give.  Be generous: with your time, with your love, and with your energy.  And then look around and see what happens.  It’s magical.

Choose Your Mood: The Power of Simplicity by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

Keep it simple. If I had a dime for every time I made something much more complicated than it needed to be, I would be a very rich woman. I think its human nature to read into things too much, to not see an easy work-around or to think there is more to something than meets the eye.

Sometimes that’s true.  Most of the time, it’s like the old adage says, “If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck…then it’s probably a duck.”

Often times when we strive to remain uncomplicated we are able to be more deeply engaged with what lies before us. We may be able to form a deeper connection when we are not all bound in levels and levels of details and analysis.  Giving the benefit of the doubt, keeping it simple, and striving not to over think things can bring ease, peacefulness, and a much needed simplicity to our lives.

Choose Your Mood: The Power of a Hug by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

When you were little and you got a bump or bruise, there was nothing more soothing than mommy’s hug.  We hug our children but many times in adulthood there are more boundaries that prevent us wisely, and sadly, from hugging one another.  While it might not be smart to hug your boss or your secretary, it’s certainly an option with your friends and family.

A hug communicates many things to a person willing and ready to receive your hug. It brings comfort and understanding. It shows compassion and sharing. Hugs allow us to connect with that person on a non-verbal level and it just feels good. The value of human contact can not be diminished. If one looks at the sad realities of children in orphanages, or of our elder population, those deprived of human contact suffer physically and psychologically, often failing to thrive.

It’s no surprise to me that hugging puts our hearts in close contact with one another.  Our heart energies can mingle and charge each other.  When we are working, we put our heads together literally and figuratively.  When we are feeling, we need to put our hearts together.

Choose Your Mood: The Power of Forgiveness by Lynette Lovelace, Lifetherapy

Did you ever notice that it takes a lot of energy to stay mad?  You have to constantly remind yourself what happened, you have to focus on the wrong or slight that caused the upset, and you have to keep supplying energy to that anger.  Forgiveness is a lot easier on the heart, mind, and body.

 

One thing I would like to explain is that forgiveness doesn’t absolve the other person of guilt.  It doesn’t mean that what they did or said was okay. It doesn’t mean that the offense is eradicated. It simply means that you are not going to continually punish yourself with these feelings any longer.  Forgiving means letting go of those feelings for yourself – it really has much less to do with the other person.
When you find forgiveness for other people, and for yourself, you will find it easier to get through your day.  Your load will be lighter and you will find it easier to enjoy life and be part of this wonderful world.  The power of forgiveness lies within each one of us and it’s our choice to let go of negativity, pain, and suffering.  The power of forgiveness is always more about us than the other person, haven’t we suffered enough? As they say, “Don’t let anyone live in your head rent free”, especially when they have not earned the right to be there. J
