I have never felt so glad to be a member than now. I used to go to yahoo answers for help and answers , but all the did was put you down, insult you for their own benefit, etc. Now, I go here, and people here are alot more genuine. thank you. I will take your advice accordingly.

Also if you have more deep seated issues, THERAPY. It doesn't mean you're crazy, it means you care about yourself enough to get help.

Hi. I actually just started practicing this way of thinking as I to have been through a lot and been very down for the better part of last year.
I believe you have to set small goals for yourself. Daily...weekly and monthly goals that you can achieve.
Also. Try to think positive. The more positive you think the better you feel and the more good things happen.
I believe the mind can make things happen.
If your always mad sad or upset you will create more of a negative field around yourself.
If you believe things can and will happen for you. Believe that you can and will have what you want it will happen.
Someone told me recently.
why cry over spilled milk? Who cries over spilled milk? Why not wipe it up and go on with your life.
Once you cry over it you create more of it.
Also. Dealing with other people.
You don't know what is wrong in their day that would cause them to project negative vibes toward you. Don't allow them to stick with you.
Say someone cuts you off while driving. Or bumps you in a store.
Rather than get upset and do it back to someone or carry the anger along and contribute to more negative in the world.
Smile. Think...something is causin h this person 2 be miarable but not me. And move on.
A lot of times clearing the mind of bad energy means clearing the body of illness or bad habits.
Work out. Eat right. Get in shape and get healthy.
This will cause your body to feel good. Your mind will follow.
I would say. Get healthy. Set goals and look at life in a different light.
Good luck. And be peaceful. It can happen. You can be happy you must create it in your mind first.

Life is all about perspective. When something happens to me that worries or upsets me, I say "will this matter in 5 minutes? " "Will this matter in 5 days?" "Will this matter in 5 months?" Things that relax me are taking baths, walking outside and seeing nature. The world is so much bigger than our lives. Nothing is permanent good or bad...

I think that peace come when you are comfortable in your situation and when you give. Sounds simple but most people tend to look at what they dont have and focus all there attention on all the negative things and and maginfy the positive. Also giving, its does not have to be monetary but it can just be your time. When you give your time to people are in a more stressful situation than you (such as voluenteering for people who maybe in a situation you have already overcome) it makes you realize how good you have it. Hopefully this helps you.....let me know how it turns out!!!
