Have you ever wanted to try something new? Take up horse riding; learn to play an instrument or maybe something else entirely? Well why not give it a go!

We all have habits that we could change for the better, I do anyway, don’t you? Are you looking at your life in a positive way or negative way? Has this become a habit? We all know that attitude has a lot to do with happiness. Something goes wrong during the day and we talk to [...]

De-junk your life, for increased happiness within

Debbie Bills — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 16:08:40 +0000

If things are getting on top of you, perhaps it’s time to do some radical de-junking. Sometimes when our minds are full of clutter – things to do, worries and stresses – it can make a real difference to you if your external environment is completely clear of junk. Creative people tend to make clutter [...]

The power of wasting time

What sort of week have you had? If you’re anything like me, this week has shot past at a hundred miles an hour, leaving you wondering where the time has gone, and what the heck you’ve managed to achieve.

Why talking boost happiness levels

Debbie Bills — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 14:25:45 +0000

I have a friend who is a psychotherapist. Every day, she goes in to a clinic and meets patients who offload their problems on to her. She listens, and works with them to get them to be happy. Over the course of the day, she meets a procession of depressed, anxious, frightened, lonely and upset [...]

Debbie Bills — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 13:48:58 +0000

Imagine you’re walking down the road, and you see someone in front of you. You walk up to them and sneer, and then say: “You’re a really ugly person.

Personal forgiveness – the road to happiness within

Debbie Bills — Fri, 18 Jun 2010 14:17:45 +0000

One of the main secrets to happiness has to be the power to forgive ourselves. Have you ever done something wrong, and been so eaten up with guilt that you haven’t even been able to think about it? Humans are flawed. We all sometimes say or do something which comes back to haunt us again, leaving [...]

Have you had one of those weeks where everything seems to be a bit of a drag? Sometimes, no matter how hard you try to stay positive, life’s little hills start to get you down. If money and time was no object, we’d probably hop on a plane and go on a vacation. We’d find a [...]

Materialism is Toxic for Happiness

Debbie Bills — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:29:29 +0000

What is it going to take to make you happy? Right now I could use a new sofa and some new paint on my walls. Just a little honesty there, but what the heck I have a sofa to sit on and my walls do have paint on them, so I can live with that. OK I’m [...]
