It's healthy to focus on spreading happiness and light in the world. There is enough negativity floating around without our help. Here are 10 things that can help to re-focus the energy when we find ourselves getting caught up in worldly drama:
1. Compliment strangers.
2. Tip generously when eating out.
3. Smile.
4. Share triumphs in public forums and feel the joy when others share theirs (no room for jealousy here).
5. Keep eyes open while going about the daily routine and help others when they need it. Just holding the door for someone who has their hands full can really brighten up their day.
6. Give hugs.
7. Be aware of moments when the ego wants to speak or act, and search instead for the compassionate path.
8. Share beautiful pictures with others. We could all use more beauty in our lives.
9. Share jokes. Make people laugh. Humor makes the heart lighter and laughter is healing.
10. Take walks outside, especially with those you love, and in the woods when possible.
11. (Bonus). Sing!
