I have body chemicals that are meant to smooth me out, to nourish me and let me feel good inside. I can feel them coursing through my system, elevating my mood. I can jump start these self soothing mood chemicals in so many ways: a brisk walk, thinking uplifting thoughts, journaling or sharing what I am feeling with friends are all proven by research to release serotonin into my blood stream. When I consciously use the body chemicals nature put in my to lighten my mood, I am using the natural power of my body/mind to sooth and care for itself.

I access my natural mood managers consciously throughout my day.

Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in eternal awareness or pure consciousness without objectification, knowing without thinking,
