The more intense your state of happiness, the greater its healing affect
- The healing influence of happiness travels at the speed of light
- People talk about having so much pain that it is inescapable
- All such pain is born of thought and is therefore changeable
- Separate your situation from the present moment, and miraculously pain will diminish
- In order to transcend your situation, you cultivate a new style of awareness
- Have your attention on what is, and see the fullness in every moment
Most people aren’t focusing on what is
- They are overshadowing the moment with what could be or what was
- The past and future dominate their attention
- When you embrace what is in your full attention, you will be immersed in the fullness of the now

Re-source: Refocus
focus (attention or resources) on something new or different
Transforming lingering chronic pain
- Pain becomes aggravated with the fear about it
- Focus not of the pain but when it was not in pain
- Feel the good
- Spend minutes acknowledging your good feelings
- feel the sense of warmth and light
- Like a warm liquid (melted chocolate)
- Letting it sink like putting oil (in every cell in your body)
- Make a kind of mental video of being and feeling
alright.
- These hundreds of videos will become your expectation instead of a dreaded reality
