When I'm irritated with the usual going-ons of life, or I want to set a feel-good tone for the day, I'll usually try to think of something that makes me happy. These are some of the general objects on which I focus:
I'll think of the wind blowing against a flower,
Or gorgeous animals,
Or soaking up the serenity of a beach at the edge of its dock, by myself or with someone I enjoy,
And sometimes I just thing about the sun; the very reason everyone still breathes and thrives.
If I'm in my room, I'll open up a window to think about these things. If I have the time to take a walk outside, i'll do it so I can have the opportunity to experience most of these visuals directly. Taking a few minutes out of the day for this exercise is such a gift after a life full of demands.
Try it for yourself.
