It’s so easy to fall into the trap of waiting until New Year’s Resolutions come round again, before you change your life. And when we think about things like Gratitude Journals, January 1st seems a logical time to start them. But if you wait until then, you’re missing out on the ten benefits that keeping a gratitude journal brings you – and you’re having to wait months to experience the changes it can weave into your life, usually in less than 3 weeks. If you’re curious about discovering how a few minutes of daily gratitude could transform your experience of life – starting today – then read on!

Happiness Experimenters – Video – How To Move From Living In Your Head, To Living From Your Heart
Hi!
Welcome to this week’s Happiness Experimenters Mastermind Group video.
This time I’m talking to you about a simple technique you can use to shift from feeling stuck with the worries and anxieties and stresses of your Monkey Mind to moving to the more peaceful and smile-inducing realm of living in your heart.
It only takes a minute or two and, if you practice this each day, you’ll find within a week that it is changing your experience of life.
It’s one of the tools I teach on my Hearing With Your Heart workshops and it’s a foundation skill for being able to move from living in your head, to living from your heart.
I hope you love it. Remember to leave your comments below – and there’s also a discussion thread, over at the Mastermind Group forum (link below).
Enjoy!
With love, Namaste,

Are You Trying Too Hard To Feel Happier?
Whatever we’re doing in life, most of the time, we just want to feel happier. Whether it’s getting the bigger house, the better job or the perfect relationship, we want to feel happy.
Yet how many of us have fallen into the trap of trying, over and over again, to make something work?
Whether it’s a relationship, a project, a job interview or even assembling flat-pack furniture, we fall back on the old proverb:
“If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, try again.“
There are two problems here:
- Going Slightly Mad
They say that doing the same thing over and over again, whilst expecting different results, is the one of the first signs of insanity.
For most of us, “try, try, try again” involves just that…
. - “Trying” Gets Us Off The Hook
When we use the word “try” – either out loud or in our heads – we’re giving ourselves unconscious permission to fail.Think about it:
“I’ll try to get that done by Tuesday.” Will it happen?
“I’ll try harder to get it right next time.” Will it be different?

10 Happiness Secrets From A 4 Year-Old
If you want to feel happier, sometimes it can be best to go back to basics and learn from those around us who seem happiest. In my life, that’s probably my 4 year old.
He seems to have happiness pretty much sussed.
We often believe that wisdom comes with age. But sometimes the years cause us to forget what’s really important, as we get bogged down in the details of how to worry, stress and feel grumpy. We can focus so much on teaching our kids the things we think we know, that we can forget how much they have to teach us.
So, just in case you’re up for remembering how to feel happier, here are 10 happiness secrets that my wee one would like to share with us “grown ups”!
