Awhile back we're watching regular TV and this Liberty Mutual commercial catches my eye. http://youtu.be/E9UICosC5aU I actually teared up! Thing is it seems so trivial but just as you see the people watching good things happen people watch bad things happen too. I don't know about you but I rather Pass the Positive Forward! So my little group of friends got together and decided to create a short list of guidelines for Passing The Positivity Forward.

Smiles bring JOY |
1. Smile
I'm sure you've all heard smiles are contagious and you attract more with honey then vinegar. So Smile, flash those pearly whites and smile. I know for some of us this my be hard at first but it does get better! Personally I've noticed that the more that I smile at others I feel happier and calmer. Remember: "Your never fully dressed without a smile!"
I love Yoga it promotes self-acceptance and self-awareness. Take an hour out of your week to self reflect and accept yourself for who you are. Once you can love yourself then you can have compassion for others.
Taking Pictures of the people you love captures special moments that you can revisit when ever you want. My kids enjoy looking through their baby photo albums and those of family members before they where born. I like to let them take pictures when we go on trips they get such joy out of it. When we have company over they drool over the photos I have sparsely placed throughout the living room.

Simple Pleasures |
The simple pleasure such as the warm hug of a special friend, the company of your loved ones, and the laughter of your children can stay with you through out the day. It could be the coziness of your warm coffee mug or the feeling of walking barefoot on the grass. Simple pleasures can be so relaxing and comforting. Children are notorious for this but as adults we become cynical.... remember that special blanket or teddy bear you dragged around or playing in the sand.
5. HUG A Friend/Loved One
Many Child psychologists believe children should get at least fifteen hug a day! Adults need hugs too! You can greet your friends with a happy hug, that shows your glad to see them. When you spouse comes home great them with a hug and a warm hello! That kindness and positive energy that you just gave someone sends ripples of positive energy through your house, to your friends and family.
So start sending positive vibes to others right now. Any of these five simple steps can help you find your own positive energy and help others find theirs. The more positive energy that we share the happier we feel. The beautiful part of this is when we have positive energy within, people see that we have a glow
about us!
HUGS XXXXX,
