Mindfulness And Get Happier cheeky

Image result for mindfulness and get happier cartoon picture

Mindfulness is a powerful tool for decreasing stress, dealing with anxiety, improving concentration and other general health benefits. While mindfulness is a word you hear often these days, many people still find the concept a little confusing. Today, I just take a moment to talk on "happier" yes that is a word lol. How can mindfulness bring you closer to happier???

But how do we do mindfulness and be "happier" Rumple?surprise

Well I share with you "finding" happier is well not really gonna happensadBut...chin up I say. Using mindfulness skills in things you do in your daily life is so very important. Like taking a bath. You really like to add that bath ball, but why? Why did it make you smile as you layed in the hot water and enjoyed the smell? Feeling it made your skin soft?

See little things like that "BRINGS" you more joy and happiness WITH the daily things you do. We just have to be more mindful of them is allheart

Please share somethings that you do that you feel more mindfully connected to "happy"

I think mindfulness helps bring happiness. It takes you away from the stresses of life back to being just you. Even if for just a short time, you are at peace with yourself. That feels happy to me.

I was social the entire day and felt totally happy! Woke up with someone for sunrise, walked and talked with a friend on the phone for an hour relating, had a luncheon celebration of my 7 years here with friends, walked in a park with friends for sunset - it totally boosted my spirits and made me feel happy! Mindful of everything all day. My feelings, my appreciation and gratitude for their presence and time, my body loving the sunshine, warmth, good food, my thoughts of sadness about the silly online dating men who are losing out by not calling or meeting me and by ghosting, missing out on a terrific life... changed my mantra for the upcoming week: stop spending time with pseudo-boyfriends and spend more time meeting new people. I know that being social makes me happy (now, when the pendulum is swinging this way... since I've been alone too long for comfort). Spending the day together with friends really worked!

@RumpleSteeleSkin to me happiness is joy. Music can bring me joy or a sunny day or accomplishing what I set out to do.

Rumple, I have some little things which give me joy. Yesterday I went walking, a dog was trying to attack me but we ended up me giving him a brief massage and he definitively enjoyed it. This made me happy and I can still remember the look in his eyes asking for more laugh. I find connecting to the outside can contribute a lot to happiness.

Hi Peace great to see you todaysmileyaawww Peace you were so kind to give that dog who must have been scared to wanna bit a massage. That was mindful of you to give some comfort to a dog. I also do agree that outside/nature does contribute to our happy/joyheart

Hey Rumple, awesome post! To me, happiness is what you make of it, and mindfullness truly helps with that. I feel happy whenever I help others out, even in the smallest ways (i.e. responding to forum posts here, running errands for others).
