What a day to wake up in a fog!!!! It was a nice fog, but took the entire day to where off. The only good thing about that, was I wasn't nervous for my 6 month dentist check up. I guess that would could as a good thing for my body. Look Mom, no cavities. Will there ever be a visit where they don't say "You need to floss more." Short of threading floss through each of my teeth every 20 minutes, there is no way flossing can be perfect. And if someone has been told that - I bow my floss sticks to you.
So in addition to getting my teeth checked out, I also squeezed in my ab routine this evening. I must admit, the more I do it, the easier I can get up off the floor.
BODY: Dentist and abs.
MIND: It doesn't matter how rotten a mood you are in, if you smile, it's hard to stay in that mood. "The Secret" talks about this as The Secret Shifter List." When you find yourself not feeling happy, or frustrated, refer to your Secret Shifter List – these are things that can change your feelings in a snap/instantly. For example, start singing, think of beautiful memories, think of a baby, maybe one you love, something coming up in the future; a funny thought or moment, nature– block everything else out and focus or dwell on the pleasant thought.
It really does work. Try it right now - think of something has really pissed you off - now smile and think of the same thing - not an easy task.
Things I would put on my Secret Shifter List - "Ashley dressing up as disney princess's when she was little. Playing with puppies. Patrick asking if Mike Koo is the genie from Aladin. Sitting out by a campfire all covered in the aroma of the camp smoke. Cuddling babies.... My list could get too long.
Maybe I'll think of some more during my blessings.
Night.
