Tomorrow’s Happiness Begins Today

Tuesday, March 30th, 2010

If you want to be happy tomorrow you need to begin working at it today. Some people spend their lives waiting for happiness to arrive on its own and it never comes. Others work hard at creating wealth but still aren’t happy, discovering that money only brings a whole different set of problems. Happiness is a state of mind and not the size of your bank account. Happiness is emotional and not physical. Each individual needs to work at creating their own happiness. I like how Richard Bach, the author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull, put it when he said, if your happiness depends on what somebody else does, I guess you do have a problem. To find happiness you first have to understand where happiness comes from. Memories are to the mind what a mirror is to the eyes - a reflection. The mirror reflects the physical while our memories reflect the emotional. When you look in the mirror it reflects what you look like; when you look in your mind it reflects who you are. One big difference between the two is that you can change what you see in the mirror but you can’t change the memories reflected in your mind. We tend to spend a lot of time trying to improve what we see in the mirror, but little or no effort trying to improve our thoughts. Every action creates a memory. Do you really think that the person who is bitter and angry today was happy and cheerful yesterday?

If a person says or does something which angers or upsets us, we can either add to the painful memory with our own negative actions or we can replace them with positive actions and create positive memories. If you want to be happy tomorrow you must choose carefully what you do today, because today’s actions will be reflected in tomorrow’s memories and you can not make them go away. Everything you do today will be in tomorrow’s reflection. The next time a person angers you, instead of lashing out, try imagining that you are holding up a mirror that bounces the reflection back at him, knowing that his actions or words are a reflection of him and not of you. We all want to like what we see in the mirror. To be truly happy we also have to like what we see reflected in our minds.

Solving Anxiety

Wednesday, December 9th, 2009

People worry about so many problems that it would be difficult to think about them all and qualify them as causes of anxiety. The distinction between normal anxiety and general anxiety disorder symptoms results from the intensity, the frequency and the disruptive nature of the worries. It is the intensity with which problems affect you, keeping the mind extremely busy at a much higher than normal level. Then, the generalized anxiety disorder symptoms fall into two distinct categories. They include psychological and physiological manifestations of a varying intensity.

 

 

 

The physiological general anxiety disorder symptoms include insomnia, digestive upset, frequent bowel movement, fatigue, muscular sores and tension and jumpiness. People who suffer from an anxiety disorder will be a lot more restless and they will experience intense fatigue. In fact, the cause of the physical exhaustion comes from the chemical imbalance at the brain level as well as from the improper night rest. Among the psychological general anxiety disorder symptoms we should mention the inability to control thoughts, irritability, the impossibility to relax, concentration problems, fears of all kinds particularly of rejection.  HCG Diet & Weight Loss

 

 

 

For teenagers and children, general anxiety disorder symptoms require a close monitoring because the young anxiety sufferers cannot know whether their worries are disproportionate or normal. There are some common symptoms with all the other patients and some more peculiar ones that characterize this group age. Thus, most of them have the ‘what if’ worry they extend over a situation far in the future. Then, younger patients show great fear of mistakes, excessive self-criticism, intense self-blaming and the constant need for approval and reassurance. Even if you recognize some of these signs in your child’s behavior, the diagnosis can only be passed by a professional.  HCG Diet & Weight Loss

 

 

 

Once the general anxiety disorder symptoms are confirmed by an expert opinion, starting a treatment and a form of therapy is the next required step. Only patients who have more intense symptoms will be prescribed medication, but such a solution only works temporarily. The patient will also have to learn how to self-soothe in addition to learning relaxation techniques and going for psychotherapy sessions. Any person who suffers from general anxiety disorder symptoms can reduce the intensity or prevent a panic attack by learning how to deal with the condition.  Seattle HCG Diet & Weight Loss.
