Yes, we absolutely need to catch the happy habit and be proactive about it.
Make it a habit, like washing and bathing.
We are up against eons of negative mindset, but we can shift it, and we will.
Dr. John Sarno talks about the “symptom imperative” – which is our human habit of constantly finding the next symptom, the next thing “wrong,” the next pain or discomfort. The mind thinks it is “imperative” and urgent to latch onto the next bad symptom, and the next – or the next bad news.
Alert and looking for pain and bad news – that’s the history of the human mind.
But we can change that pattern.
The human mind can do only one thing at a time.
So we want to feed it the happy habit, as often as we can.
After all, our complaints comprise only a tiny percentage of our life, compared to all the good in our lives.
Even with a physical pain, I still have 95% of my body working well, right? Thank you, dear body, for working well.
Dr. Peebles sent us a wonderful message through Summer Bacon on March 21, the traditional first day of Spring.
He covered bunches of helpful topics. I was glad to hear his outlook on how to handle the energies of the total solar eclipse on April 8th.
It always feels good to receive the energy healing adjustment he sends to all of us during these talks.
Here is an excerpt from Dr. Peebles Speaks March 21, 2024
Making peace with life, peace with yourself, peace with people, peace with your environment, making peace at this time upon your planet Earth.
A time period of great resurrection of your soul, beautiful resurrection of your soul wherein you at long last acknowledge yourself in a deep, inspired, loving, excited way.
Looking at your heart and saying, “My goodness gracious, how great thou art!”
And bringing that to the surface, embracing yourself with love and kindness.
Cherish the opportunities, my dear friends, to look at yourself in the mirror.
Cherish the opportunities to look at your heart.
Cherish the opportunities to be with yourself, to know yourself, to give yourself nurturing things.
Sometimes that nurturing thing might be just a little piece of candy that you say, “I shouldn’t have that,” but your heart wants it, you want it.
Be kind to yourself, gentle.
This is a beautiful time upon this school called planet Earth to soothe your mind, your body and your spirit.
Close your eyes for a moment here.
Hold in your heart the deepest desires of your soul.
Happiness, peace, whatever it might be, good health, perhaps.
Just hold those desires there.
Feel the peace, if that’s what you desire.
Feel the good health, if that’s what you desire.
Feel the radiant love – of God, or perhaps of a relationship, if that is what you desire.
Just hold that feeling there inside of you. …
The longer you can do this, the more likely it will be that this will become your reality.
Hold that feeling of peace.
Hold that feeling of joy.
Hold that feeling of happiness.
You’ve had at least one time in your life where you felt really happy. If you must, just go back, feel that again. “I remember how happy I was that day. Ah, yes.”
Then just hold that feeling.
And the longer you hold it, you may find that all of a sudden, other happy feelings and other happy thoughts are attracted to you. And all of a sudden, you’re remembering things that you had forgotten about that made you happy.
And you have thoughts about things that you’d like to create for your future, that make you happy.
And perhaps you remember an old song that made you happy, and you start to sing it. Or you have a funny thought, and you have a little giggle with yourself.
And the happiness just keeps increasing exponentially, the longer you hold it, there in your heart.
Be of service to yourself by doing this on a regular basis if you can.
Because the longer you hold that feeling, the longer you embrace it and just allow for it to be without any conditions whatsoever, the more it will become habitual for you.
You will form a habit of happiness, drive people crazy.
“You’re happy now? How could you be happy in this world the way it is?”
You say, “Because – I’m not engaging with that energy of the world that you’re engaging with. I’m engaging with happiness, which exists as well. That’s where I’m putting myself, my heart. That’s what I’m acknowledging and bringing to the surface of my soul here.”
And it becomes such a wonderful habit, a habit that’s hard to break because you don’t want to break it. Because it feels so good.
It is time for this, my dear friends.
More than ever.
As you move into the next several months on your planet Earth, it’s going to get a little shaky, we shall say. And people might feel very scared, might be wondering what’s around the corner.
And if you, my dear friends, are doing this exercise, as we suggest, you’ll be saying, “Well, let’s find out. We’ll see what happens next. I know that everything is in right order, and everything’s going to turn out just beautifully. I feel it, in my soul. I feel that joy, that happiness, that peace, that trust. Everything’s going to be wonderful no matter what. But let’s find out. Let’s see what happens.”
It is the way of the world that there is always change.
As we shared at the outset, my dear friends, life changes.
There are ups, there are downs, there is turmoil, there are wonderful moments.
There are glorious, if you will, total solar eclipses. How fascinating, how wondrous your universe, your planet Earth.
You human beings, each one of you, so fascinating, each and every one of you.
And we can hear the voices of some of you saying, “I’m not fascinating.”
Oh my goodness gracious, if only you knew how fascinating you are. It fascinates us that you would find yourself un-fascinating, you see?
