Here are some ways to feel really happy, energetic and recharged:
Listen to Happiness by the Pointer sisters. This song is very inspirational to me and makes me want to dance! When I hear ‘Happiness’ imagine yourself as a free-spirited character from a 70s movie living it up and grooving to the music.
Just when she sais “I love the way you love to live You got life, you’re inspiration” ah man that makes me giddy inside..
and then when they raise up the music and go “more!… more more!” that just makes me wanna go crazy lol.
If you are in a bad mood then listening to this kind of music will definitely put you back in a good mood.
Listening to this song I could name five people that I love. Just by thinking about them it makes me smile right away.
Here are some more ideas to get instant happiness:
1. Take a nice long bubble bath with your favorite scent to relax your mind, a glass of red wine for flavor and some great music.
2. I know its a bit cliche but do something nice for someone else. Seriously it feels so good to make someone else feel good too. I think maybe its because you are focusing your energy one someone that is not yourself. It can be the smallest thing but if another person feels good because of you then you will feel good too.
3. Right, that dreaded things to do list… organise it. Get the most annoying things at the top of the list and do those first. Get it sorted, over and done with. Then you never have to stress about it again because tada! It’s done.
4. Listen to a joke or funny movies or funny video clips
5. Get some chinese and read a fortune cookie
6. Go swimming in the ocean. There is something about the ocean that is very healing. It’s amazing for your skin and also for hangovers.
7. Listen to drunk voice mail messages from your friends.
8. Paint or draw something. Get your creativity out. Do some art…it’s expression, it’s choice, it’s therapy, it’s creativity, it’s imagination, it’s uplifting and inspiring, it’s stimulation, it’s rebellion…it’s the one thing that spiritually stimulates us to feel, to freely break rules and enter a realm with no limits or boundaries in such a boundary setting world. No rules. No limitations.
9. Watch the sunrise, close your eyes and feel the sun radiate on your face.
10. Meet up with an old friend and talk about old times
