Be healthy be happy

Have you noticed happy people are generally healthy? Even if their sick they always are in good spirits. One things I they laugh and laugh and laugh some more.

Now for the good part about why you should laugh. Laughter strengthens our immune systems and helps us recover from illness, as well as brings joy into our lives. Now, that’s pretty powerful stuff. And, that is just the beginning.

A good, hearty laugh can help:
• Reduce stress
• Lower blood pressure
• Elevate mood
• Boost immune system
• Improve brain functioning
• Protect the heart
• Connect you to others
• Foster instant relaxation
• Make you feel good

Now we are getting somewhere, but we are not finished by a long shot.
Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases infection-fighting antibodies. It increases our attentiveness, heart rate, and pulse.

That’s good to know. But there is more.

Laughter can be a great workout for your diaphragm, abdominal, respiratory, facial, leg, and back muscles. It massages abdominal organs, tones intestinal functioning, and strengthens the muscles that hold the abdominal organs in place. Not only does laughter give your midsection a workout, it can benefit digestion and absorption functioning as well. It is estimated that hearty laughter can burn calories equivalent to several minutes on the rowing machine or the exercise bike (and you know how much I love the bike).

If you want your brain stimulated, laugh, because laughing enhances learning. If you want to release muscle tension, laugh. If you are psychologically stressed, laugh. Laughter keeps the brain alert. If you want to retain more information, laugh.
Now we are getting somewhere. Are you ready for more? Well, here we go.

Rather than get upset when things are not going your way, laugh. Laughing helps you, and also the people around you, feel better. If you need to release pent-up feelings of frustration and/or anger, laugh. Laughter is a socially acceptable way to it. When you laugh, you reduce tension, which can be very relaxing.

Are you starting to become a believer? I sure hope so! But, there is still more.
To minimize a situation that is causing you anxiety, visualize a humorous situation.
Laughter helps to bind us together. When we laugh together it helps us become closer to one another. Laughter is better enjoyed when it is shared with others.

If you want to be healed, laugh. Doctors are giving more patients laugh therapy to reduce stress.

We have only touched on laughter as a part of being happy. There is so much more how happiness is good for you and I’ll touch on that later. So for now have a laugh on me and improve your health.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Improve everyday

If we improve our self a little every day in a year we can make some fantastic improvements. Here is what I am going to work at big time this year. When I am driving I judge others driver’s bad driving skills and I am not very pleasant about it at times.

One thing my driving judging does is it upset Micki, my wife. Who wants your spouse upset with you, I don’t. Second it such a waste of energy. Do you think the person that’s driving poorly really knows they are upsetting you, I don’t think so.
Judging is the constant evaluation of things as right or wrong, good or bad. When your’ constantly evaluating, classifying, labeling, analyzing, you create a lot of turbulence in side you. This turbulence constricts the flow of energy within you and limits your pure potentiality.

How am I going to stop not judging when I am driving? One is to constantly remind myself to not judge other drivers. Two I wear a rubber band on my wrist and every time I judge another driver I going to snap it. This sound a lot like Pavlov dog training and it is.

Shortly I am going to test my not judging will driving. It is my sincere hope that this will be the year of no judging for me. Look at the advantage for me. Micki will be much happier, I won’t be wasting as much energy and I’ll reduce my inner turbulence.

I will do this by working on it every day, thus every day I’ll get better and better. By the end of the year I will have won the battle of judging other driver. Then I can work on just not judging anyone.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

In with the new

Out with the old; get those things that you didn’t like out of your mind. Let’s look at it realistically, what has happened, no matter how much you want to change them you can’t. Wasting energy trying is only a waste of effort, so save that energy for things you can make an impact on.

Take this first day of 2011 and think about the things you want to do. Make sure they fit with your personal mission. Oh, you don’t have one; will maybe it is time to develop a personal mission statement for yourself. What it does for you is gives you a system to keep you on track.

Here is something I do at the first of the year and it is still winter I think of the first of the year as spring. I can hear the birds with their wonderful songs; see the flowers blooming in all their many colors, watch the grass turning that wonder green and the leaves budding on all the trees. What I see is the return of life, so it is time for my personal rebirth.

Do things that are important to you betters and do them better every day. By doing things a little better every day just think of how much you will improve by the end of 2011. You will be amazed of your progress.

Plan this year to take time to be thankful for what has been given to you and take time to help others reach their goals. By helping other you will find many of the secrets that will help you achieve your own goals.

In with the new and don’t look back. Keep focused on your goals for 2011. Do the things that will get you there and you will have an amazing 2011.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Why I am a Happiness expert?

To me is very simple, I love being happy. I loved being happy so much I started studying happiness. That prompted me to write my first book “Happiness in 8 Steps”. It is book everyone should read. It is book that takes you on the journey on how to improve happiness in your life.

Many of those that have read “Happiness in 8 Steps” have told me it has so many things that they knew, but didn’t practice in their everyday living.
Here are the 8 steps and you can decide.

One is to smile, everyone likes a smile. Two is to show gratitude everyone likes a thank you. Three giving, when you give of yourself you are truly giving. Four is being healthy, being healthy makes life more fulfilling. Five is stay in shape that helps with having good health. Six is being around people you love that make life worth living. Seven laugh, laughing does so many good things you and others. Eight live your life in the present, that past is the past and you can’t change it and future is but to come.

There is a lot more to happiness and that is what I have found out in my studies. Being grump is not being happy I and wrote a book on the “ Dump the Grump” it will be in print early January.

Happiness builds health is something else I found in my studies. Part of building your personal health is to understand you self and others. Why is that important, because by better understanding you self and others you greatly reduce your personal stress. Stress is hard on you immune systems. When your immune systems aren’t working will it is easier to get sick.

I became an expert on happiness because I saw such a need for people to raise their level of happiness and by doing that they can improve the quality of their life.

Happiness with health and wealth to you

Do the little things right and…

Do the little things right and so many things go right, like the big things. Here is a story about a guy who made the little things right and made something happiness that many didn’t think could happen.

Alan Mulally is now the president and CEO of Ford Motor Company. When he was hired from Boeing he was top executive there, but was turned down to be the CEO at Boeing. Ford offered him the job as CEO and president and he took it, even thought Ford was considered one of the big three to go out of business.

When Alan started his new job at Ford he took some time to look at the inner workings of Ford. After some time he called a meeting of his top managers and told them to give a report on the status of their area of responsibility.

Alan started the meeting by asking some questions, like why do we have so many wiring harnesses for the same car platform. He also brought up many others things that he thought needed to be addressed. It is not important that you know what a wiring harness is or a car platform, but it important to know he saw a lot of waste.

As you might imagine the first meeting was a lengthy one. What came out of the first meeting is that each manager was accountable to keep the organization fully informed of the progress of their group.

The little things mean a lot to Alan and it didn’t take long for the management team to understand that. You as a manager had to keep the organization up to date on your team’s progress and if it wasn’t doing will you had do let everyone know. If you didn’t then Alan had the whole Ford management team help you get on track
.
Ford went from looking like a loser to being the most admired car manufacture in the United States.

Next time I’ll give some of the little things that Alan did to turn Ford into a power house in the automobile business. What Alan taught Ford can help you do the little things right so the big things can happens.

Appreciation

So many times we don’t appreciate something tell we lose it. For example last week I got a terrible throat infection and I can say it stopped me in my tracks.
Off to the doctors and he agreed I was sick and gave me medication that would get me well and told me to go home and rest.

I took all the medication which took five days and stopped doing all the things I normally do, like walking 45 minutes a day and a 15 minute workout.

Now that I am feeling better I have greater appreciation of wellness. Now for the bad part, the doctor total me I was in an infectious stage, so don’t cough around people. That I tried to do, but I must have messed up some were, because Micki, my wife, now has the same thing I had.

The good part is we both got to the doctor in time so it didn’t turn into bronchitis. I am starting to feel a little better, but Micki is just in the beginning stages.

In a couple of days I should be able to get back to my routine. You know what I’ll appreciate the walking and workout more after being sick.

Maybe we should take an inventory of all the good things that we have and say a BIG thank you in appreciation of all the wonderful things we have in this life. It might be the family dog seating on your lap or going to a favorite friend’s house to visit.

Appreciate all the things you have been given because we never know when they won’t be there. When your little daughter wants you to read her a story, take the time and do it. Stop by your Mom and Dad’s house just to thank them for all they have done for you.

We all love to be appreciated, so take the time to let others know how much you appreciate them.

Happiness with health and wealth to you
