DEFINITION OF HAPPINESS

Written by Dr. Kenford Nedd. Posted in Happiness

Happiness is hard to define. In my clinics and seminars I have ventured to define love. I have ventured to define hope. I have ventured to define pleasure, but I am at a loss to define happiness.

  • Happiness is far more than the absence of trouble.
  • Happiness is more than getting what you want. It is more than wanting what you have.
  • Happiness is more than appreciating the good things that happen to you.

Stop a Stressor before it becomes Stress

Written by Dr. Kenford Nedd. Posted in Stress Tips

When you come face to face with a stressful situation, remember that this is just the stressor. It is not stress yet, you have to turn it into stress for it to downgrade your health. So decide that you will never give that power to a stressful situation, you will use your brain and all your powers to cancel any negative impact that it might have on your heart, your immune system.

How to Increase Your Awareness

Written by Dr. Kenford Nedd. Posted in Happiness

One of the most important steps to living a more fulfilling and happy life is the practice of Awareness. Awareness leads to control and control leads to happiness.

Here are a few ideas that you can install in your daily routine to increase your awareness:

1. When you walk down the street, open your eyes wide and see what you see and hear what you hear. Turn up the level of your understanding. Bring yourself fully to all your experiences.

2. If you find your job repetitive, pay great attention to what you are doing. Notice how you use your hands, how your fingers move. Pretend that it is a massively important task you are doing and do it with crazy enthusiasm.

3. Focus your awareness inwards as well as outwards. Pay attention to the inside of your body; get to know how you really are feeling inside. Bring your full attention to your body.

4. Pay attention to your emotions. Notice the feelings you entertain in your mind at any given moment, joy, peace, love, anger, fear, self-doubt, and sadness. Pay attention to the occupants of your mental space.

5. Become more aware of how you relate to your loved ones. Take nothing for granted. Bring more awareness to every conversation, every disagreement. Listen with acute awareness to how you talk to them, not only to your words but your tone, inflection, pitch, the emotion in your voice etc. Know how you communicate.
