Hello there, friends of Unity of Joy of Life!

Today I want to talk about the idea of setting up your day - setting it up so the rest of the day is just golden - everything’s going your way, everyone’s responding in a positive way - it is your best day ever! 

So how do we do that? Well, many years ago in the 1980s I came across a book on yoga and there was this one particular chapter that really impressed me. It started off by talking about this one experiment that was done. They took this one person who was always agitated, fearful, and concerned, and they took a little bit of that person‘s blood. They then injected it into a rat. Well, that rat just went off the wall crazy - which signified that when we feel certain emotions, there are chemicals being released. You know this: when you’re feeling good, when you’re feeling happy, and when you’re laughing all the time there’s endorphins that are released - and you feel good. Those are your feel good hormones. So, when we’re feeling negative, there’s also chemicals that are being released. 

So, what if we set up the day to be the best day you’ve ever had? 

This is one of my favorite meditations. I do this almost every single day. If you want, you can close your eyes or you can have them open, but I want you to just take a moment, if you will, to imagine waking up to the best day of your life!

What would it look like? How would you be? What would it feel like? 

Imagine, if you will, that you woke up healthy, full of vitality - you’re strong. Take a moment to imagine yourself wealthy - all your needs are met. Imagine being joyful and happy, and everything around you is going well. You are in the best relationships, family, and friends, and even strangers respond to you in a most positive, most loving and happy way. 

So as you imagine this - the best day - you’ve just set it up and everything is going your way. 

Say to yourself, “This is the best day of my life!” 

And so it is!
