The secret of overcoming difficult times - Monday Motivation #4

Image
Hello everyone, actually when life gets hard, when external situations and routines change, when we go trough personal lows we often get anxious or sometimes even overwelmed. We get lost in negative thoughts, we get tangeled in panic and we just want to have back the feeling of control.  We start to compare how we felt in the past. Was life better? Easier? Happier? We blame or judge ourselves, we cling to old emotions and memories. Maybe even get a little depressed. Also the feature looks suddenly frightening and unpredictable. How should we manage everything? And this focus on either the past or the future, limits us to actually go through the discomfort, through the pain or fear. We try to suppress and avoid these uncomfortable and painful feelings instead of letting our mind find acceptance and peace with the presence, with reality. If you want to conquer the anxiety of life, live in the moment, live in the breath.” ― Amit Ray Because the secret of staying strong i...

How to reduce anxiety. 5 tips

Image
Hello everybody! I hope you are healthy and safe.  Many of us struggle with anxiety, especially in the current time of uncertainty. But anxiety makes us feel helpless and weak and hence tears us away from the present moment. Then we often forget for what we can feel greatful and all our once positive thoughts will disappear in anxiousness. “Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.” ― C. H. Spurgeon So here are my 5 top tips to reduce anxiety: 1. Make yourself clear that you are not your anxious thoughts. Write down everything that makes you feel worried. Like this it gets out of your head and you gonna feel released. 2. Try to take a pause in the moments you are feeling your anxiety. Place your hand at your heart and accept your feelings but tell yourself that everything is alright and that you can feel save. 3. In moments of anxiety try to take deep breaths. Imagine your breath wanders along your body - from your fe...

Why telling the truth liberates yourself. 5 reasons

Image
Hello everyone, I hope you are doing well. Today I want to speak with you about a very important but difficult and painful topic: Telling the truth. It doesn`t matter if it is in your job or in your relationships - telling the truth is challenging but makes us grow in our confidence and life experience. “The truth hurts. And much more than love, kindness, or any of these warm feelings you’re so fond of, truth is beauty, and the thing that will set you free.” ― A.D. Aliwat  1. Telling the truth makes you stronger and loyal to yourself. 2. The truth is not always kind but it will make you feel liberated - even if you fail. 3. Only when telling the truth to others they can try to understand your feelings and opinions. 4. With telling the truth you set boundaries and limits to yourself and others. This leads to self-care and self-love. 5. All your burdens and most of your worries will disappear because you release them out of your mind. This makes space for new ideas and wi...

Life is a precious gift - Monday motivation #1

Image
Life can be hard sometimes. There are happy times - times in which we are flying and in an other very moment there can be dark times - times in which we feel like we are falling. But we should always remember: Life is precious - in every second. It is a gift we are receiving and though we can form and create that gift in a way we want it to be. We can take chances, follow our dreams - we can be honest, kind and love ourselves and others exactly the way they are.  We can be grateful for every day we are living, breathing. Because maybe in this very moment another life is coming to an end. Enjoy life! Show your true YOU to everyone and do not wait for the perfect moment - because the perfect moment is right now!   © Wind of Happiness   

Step out of your comfort zone & overcome your fears.

Image
Hello everyone, I hope you are all well! Today I want to speak about a very important topic: Overcoming fears and stepping out of our comfort zone. There are some beautiful quotes that I want to share with you to motivate you and to show you, that sometimes it is not easy at all to leave our comfort zone but that it is definitely always worth it in terms to grow, to get stronger inside and crucial to reach your goals. “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” - Mark Twain “The comfort zone is a psychological state in which one feels familiar, safe, at ease, and secure. You never change your life until you step out of your comfort zone; change begins at the end of your comfort zone.” – Roy T. Bennett “Life begins at the end of your Comfort Zone. So if you’re feeling uncomfortable ri...

Why you should never give up to fight for your goals & dreams.

Image
Hello everyone!    First of all it is super essential to ask yourself if the goals & dreams you want to become true are truly coming from yourself. Because often we unconsciously take expectations from our families, friends, partners etc. and make their goals ours. After you assured yourself of that, you should know that it is quite normal that we sometimes struggle to believe in our dreams specially when things are not working out in the way we would like them to work out or if people say that they will not work out but honestly - do not listen to them! No matter how hard it seems right now to fight for your goals & dreams try to always focus on the positive things and on the things you already achieved. Like that you will gather all strength to keep fighting for them.   The process of them becoming true teaches you to accept every obstacle that comes to your life. Furthermore it teaches you to be patient and face anything unwanted on your path with gratitude, ...

Life is like the ocean.

Image
Hello everyone! Today I want to share a beautiful quote with you that gives me strength in this uncertain time and reminds me to have faith no matter what life brings to us: “None of us knows what might happen even the next minute, yet still we go forward. Because we trust. Because we have Faith.” ― Paulo Coelho Always remember: Life is a journey. Life is like the ocean. In constant change. Big waves are crushing, wild storms are blowing but in the end there will always be peace and light, there will be a day when you can see the horizon. We need to be grateful for all challenges, for all struggles in life. They always teach us something even if we do not see the sense of them right now. But we will understand one day. Hope for better days & accept what is right now. May you be guided and protected.💛   © Wind of Happiness

Why forgiveness helps to move on & accomplish your goals. 2 important reasons

Image
Hello everyone! Forgiveness is a big word. It means to let go of old wounds. To let go of  heavy burdens we carry with us - made by others or even by ourselves. When we will not forgive ourselves, people or actions that hurt us we will never move on. The past will always hold us back. 1. In other words: If we want to follow our dreams and accomplish what we wish for, we need to let go of stored negative emotions inside of us that are related to anger and maybe even hate. If we do not let go of the past we are bound to think (sooner or later) about past events or people that betrayed, harmed etc. us and we will feel bad about it. We will relive that moment and we will even attract more negative thoughts maybe even about the future.  That negativity will determine our daily life. Without our permission that memories will remove energy of us and we will not have the strength we wish to have to invite positivity and happiness. We will not be able to love ourselves and others what ...
