Hey, Mark here. Today, let's talk about Behaviours that Are Associated with Increased Happiness. Happy people are not all identical, yet they are comparable.  These parallels give an excellent road map for paving one's own path to happiness in their own life. People who are happy share a lot of the same behaviours.  If you can include these practices in your daily routine, it stands to reason that you will also be able to have a happy life. You can't just wait around for happiness to...

The therapeutic effects of sleep on your body and mind are priceless, so it makes sense to maximise your time in bed. Take a closer look at how you usually wind down each day. Examine your routine from the minute you enter the house until you close your eyes at night. The objective is to become more self-aware to determine whether your actions are causing sleep...

When you think about it, it's incredible what a good night's sleep can do for your body. When you open your eyes, do you think how nice it would be to fall back to sleep again? Or when the alarm clock goes off, do you sometimes think to yourself, I just fell asleep? But now it's time to turn in for the night and get some rest, but I'm sure you're asking, but how am I going to have a good night's sleep?

Hi, and welcome to my Podcast; this includes a guided meditation and affirmation presentation. This one I've called: I relax and enjoy life. When it comes to topics such as free time, those of us who don't work in the traditional sense, i.e. a nine to five job, whether by choice or because we have to due to a medical condition, may find that we are in an unusual position. Of course, if you have "put in your hours," you most definitely deserve some time to yourself; however, what if you...

Hi, Mark here, and welcome to my How to be Happy series. Today I have a little story about the pursuit of Happiness. Chester was a tiny little Chihuahua. He was excited to start pup school, but he was also nervous because he had no idea what trade he wanted to pursue. After months of waiting, he finally realized he wanted to be a guard dog.

Hi and welcome back to my How to be Happy series. Today we are discussing "Common Meditation Obstacles, and How to Overcome Them." This article is another chapter taken from my book "Meditation Kickstart." and it is why I think you should give meditation a try, as I genuinely believe it will set you on the road to a happier and more contented lifestyle.

Hi and welcome to my How to be Happy series, and today we are discussing "So, What is Meditation?" as this is one of the five disciplines that you should master on the road to a happier lifestyle, I thought I would introduce it to you. If there is one skill or practice I advocate, and that's learning how to meditate, the benefits are incredible. The simple fact of keeping you centred and able to deal with life's ups and downs makes it a must.  But the fact that it also feeds and nourishes...

Reclaim Your Life by Living Consciously with Purpose Do you sometimes feel like you're treading water or just going through the motions? You wake up in the morning, get out of bed, make yourself some breakfast, get ready for work, go to work, come home, make a meal, watch TV, go to bed. And we probably do all that with not much thought or purpose behind it, but if you want to change your life and become a happier person, which is what this podcast or blog is all about, then now it's time to...

Hello and welcome to my guided meditation and affirmation presentation. This one is called:  I Embrace my Responsibilities with Joy. My name is Mark. I've designed this, so you get the best of both worlds, an affirmation and a meditation combined experience.

Here are 10 characteristics of happy people. Something for you to aim for and turn things around. We tend to notice a happy person from a mile away because it’s so rare to find someone who exudes genuine and lasting happiness. It’s just something they give off that makes you think they never let the struggles of life get them. Is there a secret to happiness? Not likely; however, people who are happier seem to understand that life is what you make it. So, I’m going to share with you what I...

Should we let the daily challenges that come our way interfere with the core values that then stop us from being happy with what we have? Absolutely not! It is up to all of us to carve out a life we can be proud to live.

No one enters a relationship expecting to become a negative statistic. Relationships can be hard work, but there are many things you can do to enhance the odds of success. The little things matter. Small gestures and habits lead to success.

You were in a relationship, perhaps one that you thought would last the rest of your life, but now you’re not. You might be sad, angry, or even relieved that it’s over. Now, you have the rest of your life to look forward to. There are plenty of things you can do when you’re single that are harder, or even impossible, to do when you’re in a relationship.

You know, we all have the potential for happiness, and we deserve to be happy. In fact, everything we do is directed to this goal, yet happiness sometimes seems very elusive. Genuine happiness has nothing to do with appearances, fame or fortune. The good news is that we can make it happen. So don't let anyone, including yourself, tell you that you can't be happy.
