This is the room where you are
only to pursue good feeling thoughts.
I invite you to go a little wilder with in your "room for happiness".
What does your room for happiness contain, encounter, how does it feel, what do you do in this room?Please note, your "room for happiness" can extend to include such notions as the following:
- riding a white horse across a valley of buttercups
- 3 scoops of ice cream at the seaside
- sailing on a yacht on a turquoise ocean
- exploring the ocean with sea turtles
- roaming granite with the dinosaurs
- sleeping in a hammock in an jungle
- into a bed surrounded by giant teddy bears
- a library with every book you have ever wanted to read and the most comfortable, ideal-for-you chaise longue with a clock that says no time exists here
- a garden of sweetest, deepest, richest smelling white and red roses
Homework time... take a few minutes now to walk in and enjoy your "room for happiness".
And similar to riding a bike or learning to swim, it will take a few times to get used to it. First when learning to swim, you begin with putting your toes in the water, then after a few more times going up to your knees... then feeling brave enough to get a life-vest so you can float in the water... and then one day perhaps invest in a teacher to gain skills, strength and agility.
So begin...
Close your eyes. Walk into your "room for happiness"
What's fun?
What's light?
What brings happiness today?
How does it smell?
What's around you?
Are you happy to just be there for a little while today?
