Reiki Calgary — Why Is Happiness Not The Ultimate Goal? Why Is Our Cup Always Half Empty?
August 16, 2012 by
Article by Michael Hills
Reiki in Calgary taught me to trust in the heart. Reiki ultimately showed me that the heart is the source of all creativity, intuition, unconditional love, psychic awareness, of all that is and will ever be in reality. The heart I found through Reiki Calgary is not made of cells, vessels, veins, and muscle. It does not pump blood, and circulate oxygen either. That heart is the center that connects us to the great mystery of life. When I learned Reiki I became aware of my essential nature as pure consciousness; you can learn this too in Reiki Calgary at gatelight.com. Thus, that which you feel through the heart is the source of creation talking through you. It is the way to get something even better than happiness. Happiness is just the opposite to sadness, after all it is fleeting, and conditional. The heart that Reiki Calgary revealed to me is the one that leads to the ultimate goal: inner peace.Inner peace is where sadness, happiness, joy, fear, where all desire evaporates and becomes unimportant, if not unnecessary. Inner peace is the ultimate goal, and the only way to eliminate all of your problems. Reiki Calgary can help you toward this goal. To gain, or maintain happiness is a problem, everything that has a gaol attached to it is a problem. The way to kill problems is to find the heart of inner peace where you will understand that you have reached a means in itself. Everything else is a means to an end, yet that end most people mistakenly consider to be happiness. I have learned that happiness is not a means in itself, it is not the ultimate goal, as it too is fleeting and must be maintained. The greatest goal of the heart is to reach perfect, pure, humble, and divine inner peace. It does not get any better than that. Anyone can achieve inner peace too. Give it a try. Reiki will help you. It is a beautiful and perfect feeling.

Happiness the Key to Success
August 12, 2012 by
Article by Sandy Zalecki
“Success is not the key to happiness. Happiness is the key to success. If you love what you are doing you will be successful.” Albert SchweitzerAlbert Schweitzer received the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize for his philosophy of “Reverence for Life”, expressed in many ways, but most famously in founding and sustaining the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambarene, now in Gabon, west central Africa (then French Equatorial Africa). If you are not familiar with him you should take the time to read about his amazing life. He was a German and then French theologian, organist, philosopher, physician, and medical missionary. If anyone could speak on success it would be Albert Schweitzer.His statement seems to be a contradiction. Don’t we strive to be successful to be happy? The very thought of success brings happiness to mind for when you are successful then you have reached a goal and the celebration starts. Yet, this statement has a point that is so valid.If you enjoy the process of success, that means the struggles of everyday performing the tasks to attain your goal, then that goal will be achieved. I live in the southwestern part of New Mexico just a few miles south of Interstate 10 which is a major route from California to the east. From my dining room window I can gaze at the traffic that flows across the Chihuahua Desert into El Paso, Texas, and beyond. I’ve talked to people who identify where I live by saying, “Oh, I know where that is, I’ve been through there many times. It’s the most boring drive I’ve ever had.” I will agree that there are no amusement theme parks or enormous casinos (yet) to attract people to make this their destination. But there is so much beauty and awesome nature scenes around the Florida Mountains just eight miles from my backyard as well as the Organ Mountains to the east. The people who pass through here are so focused on their destination that they fail to enjoy the journey through some of the most beautiful desert this country offers.If you are happy in the journey toward success then the goal of success will be much more enjoyable. In fact, you could say with certainty that you have been successful all the way to success. What seems mundane and trivial, difficult and repulsive, lacking in excitement can actually be the inspiration of another adventure. Happiness should not be the end result of success but throughout the process of success.

Let Us Pass On the Happiness
August 4, 2012 by
Article by Toryyang
The bus sped in the night, and the passengers got off to leave from station to station. I suddenly discovered that I actually did not have one point five Yuan coins in the pocket. So I hastened to ask a female passenger beside me: “Excuse me, do you have change for 100 Yuan?” Unfortunately, they are helpless to my plight.
When I sighed heavily, and put 100 bills into the slot, a voice suddenly turned up: “Here is one point five Yuan, give you.” A young lady holding one point five coin gave to me. “No, no! I cannot any reason to accept your money.” I refused politely. “But I do not have so many coins to exchange and you are in urgent of one point five change, isn’t it?” That young lady tried her best to persuade me to accept her help. “You are right, but I still cannot take your money.” I thought for a while and said: “If you and I get off at the same station, I went to a convenience store to get some change to return to you. Or the next time I met you in the bus, and then I returned to you; or else you leave an address to me, I …”
She could not help but interrupted my words: “Do not bother, you just consider it as that I took the one point five Yuan to buy happiness from you. I am very pleased and happy to give you a hand. I think you must also feel that getting help timely from others is a happy thing!” Although I agreed with her, I still shook my head and could not accept her money. So she made a suggestion: “So please help me do a thing to exchange one point five dollars. The next time you encounter the people with the same experience in the bus, you must give him one point five Yuan, so that this happiness can continue to pass along.”
While, I dragged a weary pace to get on the bus, but when I got off, my mind was nice and warm. Later, I always put one point five Yuan in the pocket, in order to continue to spread happiness. Happiness lies in our helpful heart, and happiness is all around. So, let us pass along it permanently.

Your Happiness, Your Responsibility
July 30, 2012 by
Article by Chris Lowrey
“You are the only one who can make you happy.” We have all heard that so many times in our lives. There are times it is a pretty tough pill to swallow. In reality, the people that surround you have a huge impact on your current mood. When your children are grumpy in the morning, you find a nice pile the dog left you over night, you hit the road and the traffic won’t allow you your normal speed, then when you get to work and your co-worker called in sick… these are all things that might contribute to your overall happiness of the day.
However, moods and temporary emotions are not the same as happiness. Happiness exists when you look at the overall picture of your life and you smile, that is happiness. You know those times when you can’t wait for your children to go to bed, then later you check on the kids and you almost cry because they look exactly like angels… YOUR ANGELS, sleeping so sweetly and soundly. You can hardly remember a time of irritation with them. That is happiness.
As life progresses and changes, we realize that who we are, (what makes us, us)… that is what we are responsible for. We know that immediate gratification or irritation only pacifies or deteriorates our emotional stimuli short term. Our global view of how we see ourselves determines our state of mind. Our state of mind determines our happiness.
So, how do we take control of our emotions and find the path of happiness? This seems to be the million dollar question. There are tons of books on or related to the subject. You could read and practice until you are completely confused. Or, we could spend the rest of our life introspectively evaluating what makes us happy. Which might take more time and energy and actually frustrate us more.
How about this? What if we looked at ourselves and decided what we liked and didn’t like and set about making changes. It doesn’t have to be major alterations. Maybe you are tired of your house but can’t afford to move. Try painting the living room or buying flowers to set on the kitchen table. If you haven’t had a vacation for awhile and just can’t afford to take that cruise, go camping instead.
Maybe the issues are more personal or internal. Do you get mad too easily? Learn Yoga or Meditation. Are you having marital problems? Visit a counselor. Are the kids having discipline issues? Determine the major issues, establish guidelines on how you are going to correct the problem and stick to it.
You may be saying, ‘Sure, that sounds so easy but…’ Of course it sounds easy. Problems are always easier to talk about than to take the obvious actions to fix them. But, for the most part, things are as difficult or as easy as we determine them to be. Sometimes we just make things harder than necessary.
If your unhappiness stems from a situation beyond your control then find other ways to compensate. If, for example, money is so tight and no apparent windfall is coming your way any time soon, find inexpensive entertainment. Backyard ballgames, picnics in the park, movie night with popcorn and snacks in your bedroom are a few alternatives to an expensive night out. If the issues are more serious and you feel powerless, that is the time to seek professional help.
Otherwise, look in the mirror and be glad. If you don’t like what you see, change it. Make the solution that simple!

Mindfulness meditation for perfect happiness
July 28, 2012 by
Article by caseypratt4167 caseypratt4167 Casey Pratt
People the world over and especially in the United States are into mindfulness meditation in a bid to get the elusive happiness they are always looking for. Happiness is not a fleeting moment, but a state of bliss where you are permanently content with yourself. You neither feel enraged nor unusually ecstatic at the goings on around you.Inside your mind which is very complex, you have different trains of thoughts. You get to hear lots of messages inside your mind as they bombard your thoughts and most of them come into your thinking, creating ripples in your thought process. It is separating the chaff from the wheat that you do in this form of meditation. You begin slowly by realizing that the messages that come in your thoughts are part of a habit and the mediation practice makes you separate them and distinguish between them as well. In meditation of mindfulness you progress when you start realizing that happiness is all about detaching yourself from the thoughts. You cannot stop the thought process, but you can sort of ‘watch’ them from a distance. You never realize this fully as long as you keep identifying yourself with the thoughts as they rage inside you. Happiness cannot be brought over from an external source. No change in circumstance can make you permanently happy. Happiness of that type always comes with a thorn of sorrows. Reactions in the mind to the thought processes can result in both unpleasant as well as pleasant feelings. We feel unpleasant when negative thoughts come in and pleasant feeling results from positive developments that are to our liking. Good events that have been beneficial to us make us happy while moments and events where we had a raw deal or felt bad make us unhappy. Once we can release ourselves from the thoughts by being a conscious witness, they would cease to bother us. We realize happiness doesn’t lie outside and cannot be brought about by the change in external circumstances. There are many meditation centers in the US where mindfulness meditation is practiced and taught. Practitioners can also maintain a state of mindfulness even when they are not attending the sessions. Mindfulness meditation is the realization that the present happenings are only in the mental context. You hear sounds while you perform any type of activity. You can feel or hear the drink going down inside you or the sounds of nature as the wind blows. You can hear the wind or the rustle of leaves. Similarly you become aware and mindful of the commentary inside your mind that happens continuously. You can do any activity mindfully all the time like washing plates or clothing. If you don’t, it does not remain a duty performed, but turns into a boring task. You can remain forever aware by performing mindfulness meditation techniques. anxiety attacks symptoms can be prevented.

Psychic Readings: Love Romance Happiness
July 22, 2012 by
Article by Jim Cassa
Do want to know what REAL accurate psychics think about love and romance in a psychic reading? Do you WANT to know the psychic keys to happiness in love? If yes, then read on!
Psychics know a lot about the feelings of LOVE! The subject of relationship happiness is a common one in a psychic reading. Love and romance offers the sweetness of life.
These enticing emotions bring us much fun yet problems do happen as many unhappy couples will tell you. The hurt and heartache we experience takes away from the joy of living.
In serious break ups divorce and separation are common. If you want to understand what triggers unhappy times in a romantic couple read on.
A psychic reading often shows one of the partners not growing. Someone into personal development, or spiritual attainment, will begin a new interest in life and this often makes the other partner feel threatened. Insecurity is the major feeling here.
The new interest in growth be it a hobby, a night class, or just plain wanting to express your inner creativity in a unique fashion throws others off. The unhappy one views the new personal development interest as competition.
This view is all ego based and leads to conflict in the relationship. This romance situation challenge is where one partner is growing and developing on the mind, body, and spirit level and the other is not. The one doing all of inner work needs to since this is an expression of the divine creative energy within.
If this gets blocked it will create resentment and this will lead to the couple feuding. It is not a good space to find yourself in.
Harmony is possible and both people need to feel happy and fulfilled in any kind of romantic partnership. Joy is the expression of living when all the energy between two people is flowing. Life is too short not to be happy.
Happiness within the romance takes work. Let us see dip into some psychic reading wisdom of past experience and use this to gain the happiness we seek.
The solution comes when both parties are willing to work on the relationship. It takes two to tango. Mutual respect and kindness, having similar ideals, and an upbeat vision for the future are essential for any couple to be happy. If only one person is doing all the work, no matter how intelligent or full of desire, the union is doomed.
If there is caring it is a good sign. Saying sorry for past mistakes is a lowering of the high altitude of the ego and another good sign. Be humble. It pays in the long run. Check the effort of the significant other.
Check to see if it is matching your effort or if it falls far short of your expectations. Any positive emotion you share together is a good sign. Remember the value of a good laugh and get some humor going between you two.
Love and romance are major keys to making any kind of union a couple form more binding and joyful. There is nothing like a fun evening full of romance.
Want a psychic Love and romance reading that empowers your life and spirit journey? Gain RARE insight the keys to happiness and how your positive energy makes all the difference!
