What does natural fog have in common with brain fog?

Depending on where you live you may be more familiar with fog more so than others. Fog is created when a cloud comes in contact with the ground. For those of us that have ever attempted to drive in foggy conditions we recall how diminished our visibility was. Leaving us to feel we can barely see beyond the extent of our nose.

We typically cut on the headlights (maybe even the high beams), tend to be more cautious at intersections and wonder if the traffic light ahead is green or red. Who can really tell? What we know for sure is that fog minimizes our ability to function as freely as we would like. Ultimately, we end up feeling slightly uncertain of what our next move should be.

Hey, doc maybe it’s time to prescribe an iPod instead of Prozac?

Okay, with an opening question like that I may have opened the door to being thought of as slightly “strange”, huh? I’m okay with that possible thought running through your mind. However, before you make a final determination and send me some referrals to local mental health clinics, I ask you to entertain for a moment the notion of how certain music produces soothing effects, stimulates better moods and positive thoughts.

If you are like many others and me, you occasionally (or even frequently) struggle with managing or trying to minimize stress on a daily, weekly, and/or monthly basis.

Emotional Well-Being: 4 Habits That Lead To Greater Happiness

Everyone wants to experience more happiness in his or her life, right? Do you know anyone that would say I’m as happy as I could ever want to be? If by chance you know of such a person, please have them to contact me and share their secrets. While my life is fulfilling with sprinkles of excitement and charity, I remain open to learning more secrets to greater happiness enjoyed by others. I recently explored an article titled The Happiness Factor it clearly identifies four habits that longevity experts say are at the heart of a sunny disposition--and that you can adopt, too. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that according to research, performing just five acts of kindness in a given day will provide a significant payback, which greatly exceeds the effort. And boosts your sense of well-being and happiness. I hope you will also enjoy implementing these habits and watching your happiness factor go way up.

Enjoy!
