It's Friday

Feeling Friday what are you feeling today and would you rather be feeling something else. I am feeling uncertain and I would rather have the feeling of certainty in this particular situation...still I guess I could let it go :o/ xxx

Another 10day countdown

Today I begin another 10 day count down. If you read my previous blog 10 days to... http://crystalangelsxxxrandomness.blogspot.com/2011/02/10-days-to.html   you will realise the out come of the countdown is not yet determined, it kind of gets created in the energy I hold within the 10days and when I record the COUNTdown. I guess that's important as I have written it in capitals. How you feel when you record the count is important...not sure why I feel it is and will do a results blog at the end of 40days, I was gonna do 30days (I am currently on my third set of 10) but in writing this I have just decided to do 40...could be something biblical or just because.


I would love it if people to join me in doing this and feedback to what their experiences are (feedback isn't necessary though...just fun)


If you do, here's all you do:

• Start a countdown from 10
• Counting down each day with a feel good feeling 
• Only record your countdown when/if you feel good
• If your not feeling good do things that make you feel good then record your countdown

1. What you do to feel good is up to you, 
2. Watching something funny is always good
3. Finding things around you to appreciate, including (especially) things about yourself, this gets easier the more you do it and it's fun. 
4. Recalling a good experience you have had or one you want, thinking of someone or somewhere you enjoy.
5. Do things you Love.

• Focus only on the moment of recording or the moment you are in, not in the possible outcome
• Try not to 'predict' what may happen, predict how you will feel (I may change this depending on feedback received, feeling works for me it may not work for everyone)
• Hold thoughts of how you want to feel 
• Visualise your celebration, excitement, happy dance :o)
• *Hear yourself sharing/using words of joy, excitement i.e. "this amazing thing has just happened" "you'll never guess what/who has just called" "wow I have just had the most amazing experience" "that gives me the best feeling I have ever had" "Wow that feels so good"  "OMG! this feels like a dream" "Oooh! that was fun" ~These are all expressions I have used...come on, I gotta keep it real~
• Enjoy it, it's a game, if it feels like work please stop, if it feels like effort please stop. It is not meant to be hard, easy and effortless is how I like it and I won't encourage anything else. 

The only thing I would say is do it consecutively for 10days (your creating a positive habit) feel good while your doing it. Need any more tips or want to chat about it

* I have done this in general where I have written down what I want to hear people saying to me, about my jewellery, about my art, about me. This works very well and the first time I heard someone say the exact words I had written I was stunned (and it gave me another good feeling to draw on)


LOVE YOU ALL, THANK YOU FOR READING ♥

10 days to...

Thank you everyone watching my count down and being excited for me without knowing what I was counting down to. To be honest there was no specific thing, I just wanted to countdown holding the feeling of excitement, joy,fun, just any feel good feeling and I did every day for 10 days. I would never post the count unless I felt good so I focussed on things that made me feel good and I did things that made me feel good. I even managed to feel good when things around me wasn't so good and I heard some not so good news.

I started my countdown originally just to see what it felt like, then I thought if I'll do it and see what amazing thing happens on the 10th day.

The amazing thing that has happened is I can feel good in seconds nothing needs to happen for the feeling to be felt in every cell and every inch of my being. I can increase the feeling to the extent that I feel so joy-full that I either giggle or feel as if I am going to cry tears of joy.

I shall continue my feel good countdown maybe not on fbook, maybe just in my diary and will do another 2 sets of 10 (why 2 sets I don't know) In total that will be 30 days they say it takes this length of time to form a habit and a feel good habit is one I definitely want. 


A manner of good things happen when you cultivate a feel good habit :o)

Much Love

Appreciating what makes you, you

Today a friend of mine asked me to write what I thought made her, her and what she is best at. I was a little...something...a feeling was there, not sure what, maybe not wanting to come across as smarmy or licking a*** I guess, as it is someone I hold dear to my heart and I admire greatly. The unnamed feeling was quickly let go as I started to write and the words flowed easily and effortlessly


In writing the things I think make her, her I got to focus on the things I appreciate about her all the things we can sometimes over look about a person as we go about our daily lives. It feels good to focus in this way and would recommend it to anyone. Doing this today has increased the buzz I already started with...nice one :o)


I write lists of appreciation about a lot of things however they do not go anywhere ~ well not always ~  I remember when I left RM that I wrote letters to the people I worked with, I let them know what I liked about them, it was hard to give it to them, I became very emotional whilst writing it and if I spoke in the giving of the letter it was all over (emotions you can't beat 'em) However I wanted them to know how I felt, it's nice to share your good thoughts on people with them, before dare I say it...it's too late.


The good thing about appreciation, when you focus on or notice what you appreciate about a person ~ even people you don't like or have hurt you in some way ~ what you appreciate becomes more prevalent.




Happy Friday everyone
Much Love
