Banish The Blahs by Joan Adams and Betty DeLorme
Joan Adams and sister Betty DeLorme have compiled a great
electronic book on different approaches to staying on a
high vibrational plane, how to lift your mood when feeling
blue, how to take action when you are feeling sad.
I am proud to say that I wrote a chapter for their book
called: "Thoughts Are Alive!!"
Each chapter gives direction on Banishing The Blahs, lifting
your mood and boosting your spirit! In fact, the act of
reading these chapters immediately rises your mood,
whatever it is
you are experiencing!

I thought I'd make a list of my own personal favorite mood
enhancers to add to the treasure chest:
1) Turn off the Television.
I like to be up on what is happening in the world, but
watching the news is a downer I no longer wish to
participate in. The pundits tell people how to think based
on their own
prejudice, they tell people how to vote, and in essence,
no longer
objectively report the news.
2) Sit in your favorite chair and bask in a sun beam.
3) Meditate with your favorite cat resting on your knee.
4) Seek out periods of silence every day.
5) Concentrate on the Life Force present behind each in
and out breath, all day long. These are private and joyous
three dimensional moments you share only with yourself and
can
be done no matter what is going on around you.
6) Prevent depression--avoid Crazymakers.

7) Do not participate in gossip or join others when they
are complaining. You will feel much better by avoiding the
negativity.
8) Start your own blog and write several posts a week. Do
this only if you love to write. This will help you because
you are sharing your talents with the world.
9) Encourage people to comment on your blog. That way an
open discussion ensues and you feel connected to your
audience.
10) Sit, walk and sleep with your dogs.
11) Create a "dream board" as Joan describes in her
electronic book called "10 X 10." This is a free Electronic
Book and you can have it by going here:

12 )Amanda Goldston recommends an "Ideal Day Fun Card" in
Joan and Betty's book. This involves first of all writing
down
everythingyou can think of that you would BE, DO, or Have
every day
that brings you joy and also is Fun!!
Then you find pictures that represent these things and
paste and laminate these pictures on a 3X5 card and carry
it around
with you.
Everything on this card should make you smile! Touch the
card in your pocket several times a day. The power of this
visualization tool
is evidenced by your dreams and visions manifesting faster
into your
life.
13) Go out at night and gaze into the starry sky. Learn
the constellations and pick them out. Identify the so-
called ecliptic and
recognize the Astrological constellations there: Aries,
Pisces, Gemini,
Cancer, Leo etc.
Star gazing is even more fun with a telescope. Naturally
you will want to do this at a location removed from the
bright lights
of the city.
14) Figure out when a lunar eclipse is going to happen.
Then make sure you are available to in-joy it. This
celestial event is
soothing, calming and meditative. My husband and
I recently watched an eclipse together and we agreed that
that this was wonderful quality time.
Time slowed down, we held hands, and watched the moon in
all of her phases until she was dark, except for a faint
outline of the
moon's circumference.
I read that this particular eclipse saved Christopher
Columbus and his
crew so many moons ago.
He read in his Almanac that an eclipse was going to occur
the following night. He and his crew were held captive by
the Indians who
threatened to kill them.
Columbus said: The moon will disappear then will return
because you allowed us to live.
And the rest is his-story.
15) Stroke your dog and/or cat and kiss them. Throw balls
for your dog. Massage her back.
Clip her nails. Brush her coat. Watch for the look of
gratitude which beams from her joyful face.
16) Learn to fully embrace life. Allow resistance to What
Is to simply melt away. Be in the moment where you find
yourself. Allow that
moment to expand and realize that this is the only moment,
not a series of
moments on a linear time belt.
It all is right Now. Learn to experience this and allow it
to grow.
