HEALTH & WELLNESS THREE TIPS FOR DAILY INNER JOY STEP 1: LIVE IN THE MOMENT Most businessmen cannot imagine not being in complete control of everything. Many highly stressed, focused on tomorrow’s event, the problem, the next step. Don’t waste a second more thinking of things that may never even happen. Everytime your mind strays to a negative thought, bring it back to that which is lovely. Relive the moment of great success in your business, your personal life knowing that no matter what is happening, you did it once you will do it again. Let go of what you know you don’t know or don’t have the answers to. When you let go and quiet the mind, the answer somehow comes. Let the past stay exactly where it deserves to be “in the past”. Take time to laugh and play, embrace the beautiful nature or architecture around you, it is all a gift from the Divine to you. Never lose your child-like enthusiasm, it there waiting to bring you the joy of your youthful innocence. Live every day like it is the best day of your life, because it is! STEP 2: DAILY MEDITATION Some recommend that you should ideally meditate for a time period equivalent to your age e.g. a 30 year old would meditate for 30 minutes a day. However, we all have busy schedules and even 10-15 minutes a day has the power to help clear your mind and bring relaxation. 26
