\"smileWould you like to wake up happy?\u00a0<\/strong> Here, from Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a>, the patron saint of weightlessness, shares 3-steps to a happy morning<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

Did you know that your mind is 25 times more open to suggestion when you first wake up in the morning?\u00a0 It’s true!\u00a0 In those first moments, when you first start to open your eyes, in that in between state when you are neither fully asleep nor fully awake, your mind is ready to receive.<\/p>\n

Receive what?\u00a0 Something positive, I hope!\u00a0 Positive thoughts, feelings and instructions for the day.<\/p>\n

When you wake up in the morning, train yourself to pay close attention to your very first thought.\u00a0 If it is a negative thought, then turn it around into a positive thought.<\/p>\n

Essentially, you are setting the tone for the day.\u00a0 Our actions follow our thoughts.\u00a0 Therefore, if you declare the day to be a crappy one, it will be!<\/p>\n

Tell yourself that you are excited to get and embrace the day, and your day will be a great one.<\/p>\n

Step One:\u00a0 While still in bed, not fully awake, pay attention to your first thought.
\nStep Two:\u00a0 If it is a happy one, stick with it!\u00a0 If not, then turn it around!
\nStep Three:\u00a0 Smile!<\/p>\n

Sometimes, it’s just that simple.<\/p>\n
