“A cheerful heart is good medicine” ~~ Proverbs 17:22

When you’re feeling stressed or upset, try laughing…laughter helps release anxiety, tension, fear, anger.
It’ll transform your outlook on life at that moment.

What soap is to the body, laughter is to the soul. ~Yiddish Proverb

Laughing releases bottled up emotions and pent up feelings. Laughter releases endorphins which help reduce pain. Laugh every day, and you’ll feel better…physically and mentally.

The most wasted of all days is one without laughter. ~e.e. cummings

With the fearful strain that is on me night and day, if I did not laugh I should die. ~Abraham Lincoln

If your teeth are clenched and your fists are clenched, your lifespan is probably clenched. ~Terri Guillemets

Bliss means supreme happiness, utter joy or contentment.

“Stress is not what happens to us.
It’s our response TO what happens.
And RESPONSE is something we can choose.”
Maureen Killoran

“When you find yourself stressed, ask yourself one question:
Will this matter in 5 years from now?
If yes, then do something about the situation.
If no, then let it go.”
Catherine Pulsifer

Which would you prefer?
a feeling of total bliss or stress?

I received a Headache No More eye pillow from EyePillowCompany.com and love it!

They have various mixtures and fabrics for you to custom design your eye pillow.

I put mine in the freezer for a bit before using to add to the relaxation process, cool refreshing relaxing eye pillow totally put me at ease and enabled me to simply relax.

The eye pillow lays gently covering your eyes, conforming to your face (not just being ‘dead’ weight like some other eye masks, etc.) and the herbs used are calming…bringing forth a tranquil escape.

I received the Headache No More mix.

Eye Pillow Company is the first company that  I’ve found that the contents do not include lavender in every mixture.

See, I cannot be around lavender…it has reverse affect on me…it gives me an instant vein throbbing migraine.

Headache No More

Many people get stressed over financial issues (seems more so now than before due to economic situations right now). You don’t need to, nor should you allow money issues to stress you.

Here are a few tips on being able to deal with money issues in a no stress manner.

• Before making a purchase ask yourself “Do I really want/need this” and “is this thing worth the time it took me to earn the money to pay for it“.
• Make a budget…know exactly what comes in and what your expenditures are.



• Save money in a separate account for “emergency use” and don’t touch it unless absolutely needed. Build your financial cushion.
• Live within your means. This is a biggie! It’s basic math, if you spend more than you make you’re going to be running in a negative all the time.
• Don’t use credit cards, pay cash for everything or use debit card (same as cash). If you must use credit cards, use those with the best interest rates and/or bonus points/incentives.



• Erase your debt. Obviously you may still incur a mortgage, possibly a car payment. Credit cards should be paid and rid yourself of that monthly stressor of credit card debt. When you have no debt, you’ll be amazed at the weight lifted from your shoulders.
• Stay positive and do what is right when it comes to making money and make sure to give, donate to others as well

Things happen in life that are unforeseen, so be prepared for those situations but don’t live a life stressed out over money. Don’t let money dictate the type of life you have. We all want more money, but if you’re still going to spend more than you make or have you’ll be exactly where you are now…stressed. Learn to live with money and appreciate it and what you can accomplish and do with it, but don’t let it stress you.

“Money is like manure; it’s not worth a thing unless it’s spread around encouraging young things to grow.” ~ Thornton Wilde

“Never spend your money before you have it” ~ Thomas Jefferson
