I spend many billable hours encouraging women to find creative ways to feel good inside regardless of what is going on in the outside world. Naturally one would think I had the feeling good way of life down pat.
Well I don't.
Life has her way of turning events and throwing us all curveballs. I am no exception to the rule.
This one curve ball had me REALLY sad. Being kind to myself helped. Dancing around the kitchen helped. Praying helped. Getting in nature helped. Exercising, eating well and getting more sleep helped. However, I still couldn't totally shake it. I felt like I was in a dark cloud and my heart was heavy.
Finally I decided to change my quest to feel good into something totally different. Instead of feeling good I decided to DO good. I made it my daily goal to do a good deed for someone else.
And as life would have it, DOING good lead to FEELING good.
Next time life throws you a curve ball, treat yourself with tender care. Then do something good for someone else.
You'll be the happier for it. I promise.
Blessings,
Virginia
