Tip for managing stress!

Find your "Happy"

Where is your "Happy"?  For everyone, it can be different.  It might be found in nature, drawing a picture, building with your hands, dancing.  Of course our happiness also is deeply tied to those in our lives that we love.  But I want to know WHAT (not who) is your "Happy" !!!

My "Happy" is Music.  Not just any music...Fast, Fun, Loud, Groovy, Funky music.  That slow stuff is great when I want to calm down, but if I need a quick pick-me-up I'm turnin' on the tunes with BIG bass and BIG beat.  If I have to do the dishes or clean the toilets, my neighbors are gonna hear some funky tunes coming out of my windows!  Play it loud.  Play it proud.  I'm talking about Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, Prince...you know what I mean?! 

Give it a try.

First, make a "happy" playlist.  Only YOUR favorite songs will do.  Start with a list of 10 or so... Give it a listen.  How do you feel?

Still not working?

Keep looking... the next time you find your mood change from a sour lemon to a beautiful sunny smile, figure it out.  Did you just find YOUR Happy?
