It’s All in Your Head

I love the placebo effect; the fact that if you believe enough in something, it becomes true. A doctor can give you a pill and convince you it will help your condition and although the pill is made of sugar, it really works!  Then the minute you are told the pill is a fake, your symptoms return.   It was “all in your head”. 

There are things going on in the world today – your own world and the collective World – that are dismaying and possibly depressing.  Decide to join those low vibrations and you will be dismayed and depressed.  How helpful will you be in that state? Not much.   If you take the path of joy and energy, simply decide to rise above the pain and feel good, then you can take the bull by the horns and do what is needed to make the world a better place. 

It’s okay if it’s all in your head, because your brain is the boss of your body and it’s your body that leads the charge.  Find what it is that makes you rise above yourself and go do it.  Yoga, service, walking in the woods. (Sorry, Margaritas are not on the list!).  Get yourself ready to make a difference, and then take the first step. You probably won’t be in a position to broker world peace, but I bet you can make your grumpy neighbor smile!

Let it go to your head.
