“All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts we create the world.” the Buddha

There’s a voice inside you that is constantly speaking…in whispers…in shouts… in chatter…in murmurs…in guidance…and in an ongoing conversation between YOU and YOURSELF. At lightning speed, your senses absorb an impression, your brain receives it, a thought manifests, your intellect processes it, your inner voice puts it in context, and then moves you to the next moment. This relentless process continues unceasingly through every moment… every hour of every day. This is your inner dialog – responding to life as it unfolds before you and within you.

Wherever you spend your time; whatever you read or watch; however you move through your day, ultimately becomes the fabric of your inner dialog. Watch a lot of movies…it becomes you; practice a certain asana regularly…it becomes you; eat a certain type of food…it becomes you; read a particular author or perspective…it becomes you; spend a lot of time in a certain place…it becomes you…and on and on it goes.

Happiness is one aspiration all people share. No one wants to be sad and depressed. “Happiness is a habit – cultivate it.” ~ Elbert Hubbard 

We’ve all seen people who are always happy – even amidst agonizing life trials. I’m not saying happy people don’t feel grief, sorrow or sadness; they just don’t let it overtake their life. 

The following are 21 things happy people make a habit of doing: 

HJ: One of the most neglected concepts in Western health and nutritional theory is that of balance.  Chinese medicine, on the other hand, heavily emphasizes balance when it comes to diet and strives to maintain that over all else.  The human body is wired to maintain balance over all else.  Imbalances, especially in diet, always cause over compensation in the opposite direction in order to maintain the yin/yang balance that keeps the body in homeostasis.  That is why dietary changes are best implemented slowly,  so that the body is not thrown into a state of shock and can adjust accordingly.

RD, LD, CBN, NBNC:  acronyms for licensed and or registered dietitians.  These are the professionals who work in the medical fields, and your doctor or specialist likely has one on staff.  They are in the hospitals, nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities.  A lot of them go on to work for companies like NutriSystem, Jenny Craig, or one of those “Medi-Fast Weight Loss” centers.  Some large globo-gyms have one or two on staff, and they are the contributing editors and staff writers for the “Health & Lifestyle” sections of major publications.  They are the folks who are responsible for health & science-based nutritional advice regarding your specific illness, disease or concern.  When you are diagnosed with IBS, your doctor will send you into the office of his RD, and he or she will tell you to eat more fiber and drink more water.   If you are unfortunate and get the diagnosis of T2 Diabetes, an RD will be assigned to your case & then advise you to eat whole wheat, whole grains and maintain a low fat diet.  They give advice such as “eat baked chips, and diet coke instead of regular.  Get low fat peanut butter and low fat yogurt, drink fat free milk and fortified bread with added fiber.”
