Discover How Happiness, Fun, and Success Gives You Inner Peace

Discover How Happiness, Fun, and Success Gives You Inner Peace

Having fun, enjoying life is the way you want to live. However, many people live feeling stressed instead of feeling inner peace.  If you are at the point where you have spent too many days not enjoying yourself it’s time to create change. When was the last you took some time off? Switching from my fast paced lifestyle in New York to being on Aruba’s “One Happy Island (my home away from home) was night and day. Making the shift was worth it because I feel the best I’ve felt in ages after returning from a 3-week vacation at the Casa Del Mar Resort with my family and friends.  In case you have never been there, the island of Aruba is only about 21 miles and located in the southern part of the Caribbean Sea. Aruba may be small, but it’s a perfect place to unwind and relax. Don’t let it take years for you to invest in your well-being and have fun and immerse yourself in feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.

Relaxation is key if you wish to gain the full benefit from any vacation. Your mind and body need time, peace, and quiet. Once you make the decision and get settled then your mindset is ready to take full advantage of your vacation experience.  Whether on vacation or in life, it’s good to unwind and truly “BE”.  One of my most favorite experiences was taking part at the resort offered the class, Chair Yoga for the second year in a row with an incredible teacher, Gladys M Duarte. I discovered again how this low impact exercise strengthens your body and calms your spirit. It was also a great way to meet people in a fun and relaxing environment. I encourage you to find one in your area, so you can incorporate inner peace and exercise into your life. 

Needless to say, we had a blast. I ended up participating in 9 classes over my vacation. The vibrant Caribbean backdrop didn’t disappoint, my classes took place around beautiful trees near our pool and you could feel the wonderful sea breeze while working through each routine. I’m filled with plenty of fond memories and if you are struggling with stress, anxiety, or find it difficult to relax then I highly recommend chair yoga. By the end of the three weeks, I felt better than when I arrived and filled with a sense of well-being. It was a feeling of renewed peace and tranquility, and one I’d like for you to experience as well.

Some Benefits of Chair Yoga:

• It’s a great way to relax from head to toe giving you a sense of peace as your mind relaxes.
• Chair yoga is a quick way to stretch your body and relieve tension. It’s much healthier for you instead of reaching for food to comfort you.
• It will increase your range of motion by opening your hips, moving your shoulders and neck. It feels so good.
• Total body benefits as it increases blood circulation and stimulates the elimination of body toxins.
• Improves balance, posture, flexibility, and mobility of the feet, toes, and hands.

Note- On September 17th Gladys will be here in the states at “NY Fit Fest” in Long Beach, New York, teaching with other world-renowned athletes, leading activities ranging from sunrise yoga, meditation, surfing, dance, health and more.

Life is full of choices. Make your well-being a top priority and plan some quiet time into your life. You’ll find yourself less stressed and it’s good for your overall well-being because you will feel refreshed, relaxed and rejuvenated. Having a ritual to start your day will lead you to more success. Your mindset matters and how you feel determines the actions you take each day. My coach Sheri Kaye Hoff put together a group of expert professionals sharing their ideas for creating a successful mindset. It has helped me to live my life in a proactive manner instead of reacting to all that comes my way.

Here is how I define success.

Simple Practices I Follow for Focus on a Successful Mindset

Writing down what I am grateful for gave me an uplifting feeling to start or end my day.

Having a commitment to exercise at least 4 times a week relaxes my mind, releases tension, frustration and strengthens my body.  I ride my stationary bike for 30 minutes, lift weights or do pushups to motivate and inspire me.

Changing my diet from a regular routine of pizza, Chinese food, white rice and gravy, bagels, fried foods and chips to reducing each one of them one at a time. Approaching food in this manner helped me to create new habits of choosing healthier foods without depriving myself while on my well-being journey.  Instead of a seeing this change as a “diet”, I looked at it as a slow and steady lifestyle change. Framing within my mind in this way helped me to overcome mentality what was keeping me from achieving my permanent weight loss.

Focusing on my personal development and personal growth was and remains my way to success.  Hiring a life coach opened a new world of self-discovery and personal growth to embrace and experience. Getting the support I needed in several areas of my life and having an accountability partner to turn to for guidance, inspired motivated and helped me stay on track.

Going out of my comfort zone and starting a blog gave me the confidence to write my first book which was something I never imagined doing.

For inspiration, I turned to listening to audio recordings of spiritual music, meditation, and courses to keep moving forward as I pursued my dreams.

Be patient and enjoy the journey and dream big.  Keep doing the things you love instead of being worried and filled with fear of what might happen next.   Learn how to create success by taking simple steps that move you forward.  Focus on changing any negative attitude that may linger and push yourself to have a positive winning mindset. The effort will soon turn into a habit that will transform your life. Decide today to create change and improve your well-being by creating a life filled with happiness, success. You’ll discover the brighter side of life while having more fun living the lifestyle you desire.
