Genuine Joy and Happiness is an Inside Job sourced through the Heart; as is Joy, Kindness, Love, Appreciation, and other similar experiences consisting of a High Vibrational Frequency.
Genuine Joy and Happiness is an Inside Job sourced through the Heart; as is Joy, Kindness, Love, Appreciation, and other similar experiences consisting of a High Vibrational Frequency.
I used to ‘Believe’ that my Happiness was dependent on the outer world . . . that I could only be happy when certain conditions were fulfilled or met.
However, I now know this truth: Happiness IS a State of the Heart and therefore I can Choose to create Happiness from within for no external reason at all. I find that, often my choice is mostly only hindered by my mind telling me Stories about what is wrong and why I cannot feel Happy. However, if I can learn to recognize these stories, I can turn this false thinking around. I can learn to Choose Happiness over some other negative or less desirable emotion; as long as my Awareness, Intention, Focus, and Commitment are strong enough to do so.

I can learn to Choose Happiness over some other negative or less desirable emotion; as long as my Awareness, Intention, Focus, and Commitment are strong enough to do so.
Because the experience of genuine joy and happiness is actually sourced at the heart, it follows that it can start and expand from within ourselves, either with or without any external stimuli !
When we are at that level of self-awareness, where we are able to feel genuine joy or happiness for no external reason at all, we are effortlessly practicing and mastering the manifestation of infinite desirable possibilities.

There are, off course, different Levels of ‘Happiness’; and being ecstatically over the top happy, is not necessary in order to feel good or to raise my Vibrational Frequency. Even just the slightest gain in the direction of a genuine hint of Happiness, Joy, or Love will be a Happier, more Joyous path than it was before.
Although it is often not easy to shift in that direction when I am in a state of feeling down, I do have the ability to do so. I do have the Ability to Choose a more pleasant emotion than what I am feeling. It is really only a better thought, and thus a better feeling away ! I can practice this, and as I do so, I am creating more happiness for myself and for others. I can do this at any time, even when my life is less than perfect, even in the absence of what I want ! Visit my 'Vibration Is The Key' page.
Once I understand this truth about the conscious choices that I can make, then choosing happiness over any negative emotion becomes a magnificent tool that I can use to move me towards living an increasingly joyful and abundant live. After all, ‘The Happier I get . . . the Happier Life gets’.
Since Happiness, or any emotion is often a Story of my Mind, I can learn to Shift the way my mind thinks and talks to me. I can train my mind to tell a Different Story than what it has been telling me ! I can choose to train it to tell a Happier Story; one that Allows me to 'Choose Happiness' now.
Visit my Good Vibrations Journal page for some ideas on how to focus on telling a happier story.

In the past, my unconscious strategy was to ‘Be unhappy until I get what I want’ ! But once I became aware of what I was doing and I recognized that not only does this strategy not work; but it also keeps me stuck in ‘being unhappy’.
I have learned and I know now that I can Choose something different !
I can choose to be happy now, in this moment.
There were times when I have even questioned my ‘Right to be Happy’ or I feared that I’d be Judged by others if I was able to achieve 'Happiness' in the midst of witnessing so much pain and suffering all around me. I often felt as though I had a Right or even a Responsibility to be unhappy given what I was witnessing.
Now, I recognize that it takes significantly more Strength and Self-Awareness to step into and hold such a High Vibration as Happiness, Joy, or Love; especially amongst the Suffering; than it does to join in with the muck of Fear, Judgment, Complaining, or Blaming. I know now, that if I am strong enough to stand in and hold this Higher Vibration Frequency amongst the muck of this world, then I am actually contributing to Raising the overall Frequency of our planet and thus the expansion of it !
If I am unable to do so, I am likely contributing to the Lowering of its Frequency and its contraction.

Everyone has a ‘Right to feel Happy’ no matter what; and I can avoid Judgment from others by feeling my happiness Internally when appropriate, rather than sharing it openly.
This Allows others to have their feelings while I Allow myself to have mine.
When I am feeling happy; I am serving myself, I am serving others, and I am serving this world!
When I feel Happy . . . Life is Good and All is well in this moment !

When I feel Happy . . . Life is Good and All is well in this moment !
I can train myself to Feel Happier with Where I am, with Who I am, and with What I have Right Now; while at the same time creating and holding a Vision of what else I would like and how Good it Feels to have it ! Notice: Not How Good It Will Feel when I have it, but How Good It Feels to have it ! ! !
This vision taking place in my mind, in the present moment, like a movie playing in my head; is very powerful ! It releases endorphins in my body that create excitement, enthusiasm, and yes . . . happiness. I can create and expand my vision by using a great variety of tools and techniques listed on this page, as well as Forgiveness, Affirmations, Affirmative Prayers, Guided Meditations, and/or Pivoting.
When I consistently Replay this Vision and I Bathe myself in the Good Feeling of the Fulfillment of what I want, despite the current Absence of its fulfillment; I set in Motion the positive Universal Powers of the Law Of Attraction . . . and I know that as I do so, the Law Of Attraction is bringing me more and more to feel happy about ! I know it ! According to Abraham Hicks: 'It Is Law !'

The Good Vibrations Journal is my interactive online tool on Facebook. It is designed to help us train ourselves to become more aware of the Presence of the Happiness and many of its components in our daily life that is already there.
It raises our awareness of it by practicing to look for it and noticing it in the many different ways it presents itself to us daily. An alternative tool could be to keep a 'Happiness Journal'. Look for, find, and write things in it that you can feel happy about every day, until your Awareness has expanded enough to where it becomes a integrated way of Being ! We can then look at this journal whenever we are in need of a vibrational lift. It will help us remember how many things we really do have that we can truly feel happy about. |
Take the advice of Bobby McFerrin and 'Don't Worry Be Happy'.
Allow this entertaining video to lift you into the Vibration of feeling happier than you did before you watched it.

Lyrics:
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry, be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed
Don't worry, be happy
The landlord say your rent is late
He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
Oh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh don't worry, be happy
Here I give you my phone number, when you worry, call me, I make you happy, don't worry, be happy)
Don't worry, be happy
Ain't got no cash, ain't got no style
Ain't got no gal to make you smile
Don't worry, be happy
'Cause when you worry your face will frown
And that will bring everybody down
So don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry, be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry, be happy
Now there, is this song I wrote
I hope you learned note for note
Like good little children, don't worry, be happy
Now listen to what I said, in your life expect some trouble
When you worry you make it double
But don't worry, be happy, be happy now
don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) be happy
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't worry, be happy

(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) put a smile in your face
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) don't bring everybody down like this
don't worry
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh oo-ooh ooh oo-ooh) it will soon pass, whatever it is
