☺ Motivational Mondays! ☺

. . . . . . . . . .

We're taking back Mondays!!!

"Motivational Mondays" are fabulous tips to get you excited and pumped for the week! 

Feeling low? Moody? Down on life? Well, that's what these posts are for! Time to feel awesome again and get some Positivity rolling! Just because it's Monday doesn't mean you can't have fun, smile, and enjoy Today! Apply these tips to your week and try to tell me that you don't start to see an improvement in your life! ;)

It's all about You! Change your perception, change your attitude, love your life! xo

. . . . . . . . . .

☺ Everything you want is an inside job! The world outside of yourself is the result of your thoughts, therefor if you want your exterior world to change you Must change yourself from the interior first. It's all the result of thoughts. So set your thoughts and frequency on happiness and positivity. Radiate that positivity out to the Universe and it will return to you as a truly magnificent life.   

☺ Start a Funds Jar. Reuse an old bottle, have fun making it look pretty, and label it your "travel" "tattoo" or whatever thing it is that you are trying to save up for. Put $10 in it to start, then pick a dollar amount to add to it every week. Something like $5-10 you're probably not going to notice, that's a tea date or a meal out. It's hard to save up money for things that we want sometimes so dedicate some of your hard earned cash to your new funds jar to work towards your wants and dreams. Just don't go out and buy a funds jar or piggy bank, that's kind of counter-productive in my opinion, especially when this makes a fun little craft project as well. ;)     

☺ Have a moment… I recently started a new ritual every saturday on the blog, to reflect upon life and allow my thoughts to flow uninhibited in a sort of "happy diary" post. I want you to get into this same ritual. You don't have to post it online if you don't want to, but I want you to take time to write for half an hour or more, simply allowing your thoughts to flow. Try to focus on the positive, that is the point of the exercise. If you are going to reflect on something negative then make sure you come out with a positive conclusion to the issue. Get your brain on the positive train!    

☺ Grow your own Food!  Spring is on the horizon and it's time to get gardening! This is super exciting, you should be super duper excited! Gardening is for everyone and you reap so many benefits; aside from having your own fresh veggies to eat, gardening also reconnects us with mother nature and can be a fun activity to do with loved ones. If you don't have space where you live then do what you can and get creative! Join a community garden, start a windowsill garden box, share a garden with some friends or family. Do what you can!

☺ Remember to Keep Moving Forward! Failure, falling down, and those bumps in the road all serve their purpose and they happen to everyone. Remember that it's all part of the journey. Learn the lesson, pay attention, don't get stuck in a rut, and keep moving forward. Getting discouraged or down when things aren't okay serves you no purpose. Let it go. Keep moving moving! 

☺ Have a solo Dance Party! It's been a while since I've made the suggestion of dancing around your home, sooooo… have a solo dance party! Blast some upbeat poppy music and dance like a maniac, run around, prance around, bust out all your best and worst dance moves! Try to take ten minutes every day this week to do this, you'll notice a total uplift in your mood, I promise! ;)    

☺ "If you limit your choices only to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise." ~ Robert Fritz. I see people compromise all the time, and it's somewhat disheartening. Anything and everything you could want in life you can have. All your dreams can come true. With the right attitude and mindset and positivity anything is absolutely possible. So don't compromise, stay positive, and watch the magic happen!  

Hope you're all making the most of some sunshine or rain or snow (isn't this a funny time of year?!) and Create a Nice Day!! 

Much Love from me to you!

☺ Motivational Mondays! ☺

I hope your New Year is off to a beautiful and magical start! If it's not then make it so! :) You can start with this week's Motivational Monday!!!! Woooo!

☺ Create a Nice Day! I recently heard this from one of the "Way of the Peaceful Warrior" books (by Dan Millman) and I thought it was the perfect thing to share. Instead of telling people "Have a Nice Day" try "Create a Nice day!" Why? Because "create" gives you no doubts about the fact the day you experience is created by yourself. If you want to Have a nice day then you damn well better Create one! So, go ahead, Create a Nice Day! ;)

☺ Get a Jumpstart! I know you love the work I do here at ReLove Plan.et, or else you wouldn't be reading this now would you? ;) Or perhaps you are brand new, in which case Hellllloooo! And welcome and I hope you enjoy and stick around for more! In any case, what I aim for is to inspire and to make your day a little brighter, happier, and teach you how to apply positivity. I have been finding new ways to do this and there are now three fantastic additions to the Positivity Team that you can keep at home with you. The 365 Day Bucket List (which if you especially love these Motivational Mondays posts then you will love this!), the Happy Kit, and the Vegan Kit. Again, if you love my work, you will love all three of these and so my advice to you, go pick up at least one (if not all three! ;)).

☺ Respect Where You Are and how You Feel… I try to emphasize this whenever I can (more articles coming soon!!), but we really tend to neglect our emotions and beings. There are times when we are uppity and enthusiastic and ready to seize every day to it's fullest. But there are also days where all we want to do is curl up on the couch and be lazy. Respect when it is time to play, and when it is time to rest. Rest is good too, there is a time and place for both. Make sure you are being respectful and aware of when you need each one.

☺ Pick up old Hobbies! When I was a child I used to draw and write my own little fantasy stories all the time. I Loved it! Yes, I was a bit of a loner child so these hobbies filled up most of my time, but what I didn't realize was that when my life did become social I ended up neglecting these things completely. I didn't write or draw for Years. But these were things that I did actually enjoy, so recently I picked them up again. And I love them! Don't neglect the hobbies you enjoy doing, there is still room for them in your busy blissful life. Remember, balance! ;)

☺ Dance around in a circle… Right now! Yeah, you heard me, right now! I want you to stand up, spin around, spread your arms like an airplane, jump around, and do a little groovy dance. I don't care if you're at work or under the watchful eyes of your cats at home. Do it. Have you done it yet? I bet you feel silly don't you? I bet you also feel smug and happy. Do that more often, it brightens the boring into something fun and spontaneous at any time of day.

☺ Changing your thoughts can change your life! That is all… and everything! ;) 

Hope you have a nice…. umm, I mean… CREATE A NICE DAY!!!! Much love and Positivity!! :)

☺ Inspirational: Return that Smile! ☺

☺ Smile & Laugh! Yes, the most obvious advice ever, but it works! Laughter releases tension and endorphins so you'll Feel better. Smiling, all the time, at everyone, invites others to do the same, so you're creating positive energy all around. By simply smiling it also triggers the brain to be Happy. Neat huh? So Smile & Laugh it off!  

☺ Dance in your Underwear! Absolutely let go, Be Free! Let yourself jump around and dance like a maniac! No one is there to watch you--and if they are, who cares? Allow yourself to Be and have some fun! Sing, prance, jump, run around, whatever or however you feel, just go for it! Crank up some silly pop music, maybe head-bang to some metal, but I recommend something upbeat. 

☺ Hug Everyone You Love! Or just plain hug Everyone if you feel like it. There is not enough Love & Joy being spread around so help spread it, for Yourself and for Others. Hugs are amazing, everyone loves hugs, whether they admit it or not. Never forget the joy of this simple affectionate act. 

☺ Be Appreciative & Attentive. Every moment of the day try to stop and really look around at your surroundings and just Be. Walk around with Your Eyes Open! It will help bring you to the Here & Now and will open your eyes to the beauty of simplicity in life. Remember; There are No Ordinary Moments.  

Have an amazing weekend Lovelies! Enjoy it! And remember how Beautiful you are. 

Peace & Love,

xo
