To quote Robin Sharma from his book, The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari…
“Laughing is medicine for the soul. Even if you don’t feel like it, look in the mirror and laugh for a couple of minutes. You can’t help but feel fantastic.” :)
Do you know how many times an average four-year old laughs in a day? According to Robin Sharma, 300 times! :) :) :) And do you know how many times an average adult laughs? 15 times a day. Incredible! I think we might be missing something on this whole adult thing! ;) And, it is called FUN! :)
“The sages would actually make themselves laugh whether they felt like it or not, just to get the ‘happiness juices’ flowing early in the morning.”
Do you know how many times you laugh in a day!?! I counted 25 times I laughed out loud today! :) I have a ways to go to get to 300! :)
My vote is we lighten up and laugh a whole hell of a lot more! :) Get your happiness juices flowing with big smiles and lots of deep, belly laughs! :) :) :)
Glimpse into My Goddess Life
MIND – Awesome all day today and then early evening I get a bit funky. Either it was the energy of being in the city of Ubud, the bean chilli, the somasa?? :) I feel like I do get a bit stressed being in the city a lot. I enjoy small doses but too much seems to intensify my active mind and I lose my center! Something to be mindful of! :)
I
Meditation 5:00 – 6:00
Universal Mind – 60 minutes (two times today)
BODY – It is amazing to me that I am getting up at 4:30 am without an alarm clock! :) Love Love Love it and I am on a walk by like 6:30 am meeting the sun. Living in bliss for sure!! I have been waking up a bit stiff and tired but excited to wake up and meditate and I think it is just the adjusting phase of reprogramming my mind and body to waking up that early.
I am excited to see the transformation of my body in the next couple of months!! It is so great 3 weeks of recording and I am now starting to get in touch with my body and realize I can eat way more food than I actually need – and as I do it I start slimming down. My body is incredible in it’s intelligence to balance! I actually love to eat most of my food between 10-4 pm. That feels the best for me and eat light before or after those times.
Diet –
6:15 detox drink
7:00 beet, carrot, ginger, celery juice
8:00 bowl of pineapple and papaya
9:15 4 potato wedges
11:30 Quinoa with braggs and a side salad with 1 ½ pieces of dark chocolate
Coconut Water
12:30 Rosewater Lassie
2:30 Vegetarian Chili with sour cream and a somasa with an aloe vera drink
4:15 yummy dark chocolate
6:00 Green Juice and papaya and pineapple
Workout – 30 minute walk & 30 minutes of yoga/stretching (love this daily routine)
Massage – 90 minute head, neck, shoulder, hands and feet.
SPIRIT
My intention/mantra for the day – Beauty. I am beautiful. My life is beautiful. I only see beauty!
I picked this affirmation because this morning I wasn’t seeing beauty when I looked in the mirror and I could feel my emotions following my thoughts. So, I shifted to beauty and then thought of all the ways that I am beautiful and what I can do today to feel more beautiful and the top of the list was…. Appreciate my life, Drink a green juice, eat lighter, rest and relax, meditate more, pray, and do a face mask! :) So, that is what my spirit is calling to me today! :) I am going to follow through. I have already done 2 hrs of meditation and it is 12 pm! How amazing is that? I love it! And, B and I have been silent which is always nice. I really love not talking! There is something very connecting, spiritual and beautiful that I really would love to continue to do more and more.
FUN/CREATIVITY – I did some creative exercises from the book Creative Visualization on my ideal life… And, we went and bought a bunch of stunning beautiful stone statues of Buddha, Shiva, Ganesh! :)
MY FAVORITE BLISSFUL MOMENTS – waking up knowing that I would be silent till 12:00. Meditating and having 30 minutes seem like 2 minutes, morning walk with the doggies, susu & ming (it is so much fun to go walking with dogs),
APPRECIATION FOR THE GOOD, GREAT & BEAUTIFUL – I appreciate massages and I appreciate Tini, our massage therapist in Bali. I appreciate Amazon (where we order all of our books), I appreciate our comfortable bed, I appreciate bug spray, I appreciate my journal!
FINAL THOUGHTS OF THE DAY – I am committed to going to bed early and finishing my book and having blessed thoughts and affirm my daily affirmation, I am beauty, before falling asleep. And, waking up tomorrow energized, vibrant and peaceful. :)
