Are you asking the right question ?

At the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I’ve learned how important it is to ask people the right questions. And I think”What is new and good? ” is the best question ever. People always start talking about bad things that happened to them after confirming that they are doing just fine. And after you refocus them on positive thinking, they realize that their life is not that bad and stressful as they thought it was. Next time you meet your friend or call her/him on the phone, try this trick: ask what new and good is going and wait. It is always fun to watch how people react. And if your friend cannot come up with anything new and good, encourage her/him to think harder and wait again.

Sometimes it takes time for us to realize that everything in our life is better than we imagine or assume. So if we ask ourselves every morning what new and good happened the day before, we do come up with some things we never even thought of. And as a matter of fact it is a very good stress relief technique. It always helps to:

breathe, smile and be happy.

P.S.

If you are really busy and don’t have enough time to take care of your skin, try this home-made facial for busy women: cut open one or two grapes and rub the juicy part of them on your face and neck. Don’t forget to rinse it off in 10 – 15 minutes. You can do it in the morning while you have breakfast or in the evening after work.

    Sure it works, also if you smile and tell people happy news or something good happening in your life, they start responding the same way right away. Result: everyone is in the better mood, keep smiling, and thinking how good his or her life is. If you stick to this practice, your attitude becomes more and more positive, you smile more and more often, and people around you get used to it and always meet and greet you with a smile and positive small talk. I came back from vacation and was told : ” It is great to see your smiling face in the office again.”
