I believe a person can help themselves to heal, inside thier hearts and souls and that it can even benefit their physical beings, not only by lowering blood pressure, and physical pain but also depression.

I like to meditate from time to time. I like a good easy going conversation. And who doesn't like the sun on thier faces just for a bit as if the sun is smiling on them.

I was telling a good friend of mine tonight, about the things I have learned over the years about how to drag my sorry butt out the shadows of my cold dark room and take a lil step towards recovery of negative emotions or constant illments.

Now, I admit, sometimes it takes a freind or family member to insist upon your doing something today, and than again, you know that all ready.

I'm not saying positive thinking is gonna make it all better all at once, nope, no miracle cures, but a definate change of thinking that makes yu feel good for a while.

Anyone hear of affirmations?
Well, a friend of mine read an article of Belief.net about building a Self Esteem File
I just want to say, when I did it, I was sooo thrilled at the responses I recieved.

It is a file you create on your computer or even in a box.
What it is, is you send a email or messege to all your good friends telling them

"As you may or may not know, I have been feeling down and have been hearing this negative critic voice telling me I am only animal dung. I am building a 'Self Esteem File' (or you can call it a Feel better File, whatever you like' Because, I would like to believe differantly. That is where you come in, my friends and family. If you can, please list ten positive qualities I have, cause I need affirmations, lots of them. Also list why you are my friend. Also list Anything kind I might have said to you or done for you.
There must be something you can say that is good. Right. Your my friend aren't you. Right? Ok, thanks for the help. Sincerely, ...."

You can write letters to people like this or do it internet style but make sure you print the results so when you feel down, you can look at them, or if something is extra special you can carry it with you to lift your spirits.

The responses I recieved were amazing and made me feel loved.

Keep on keeping on, never give up, never surrender.
