Published: March 23, 2015, 11 p.m.

b'Hi loves, this is to use anytime this week or this month \\u2013 it\\u2019s a little tool for regaining control of the wheel of your person, in the face of enduring places, people or situations that are not to your liking. It\\u2019s called \\u201cHappy Place.\\u201d The situation, though it sucks and tests your tolerance and ability to pursue what you want despite this situation \\u2013 is NOT helped by your succumbing to focusing on the pain and unhappiness. Anger is toxic to your body so you are not only hurting your physical health, you are actively causing yourself MORE agony by focusing on it while it\\u2019s happening. Often we have an unconscious habit of savoring the sheer magnitude of annoyances in our life and relishing our increased stress or fatigue or the level of idiocy around ourselves. That unconscious savoring is your worst enemy. Is taking time to acknowledge what it is you don\\u2019t like and you might not even notice you\\u2019re celebrating it again and again because it\\u2019s a habit. So now\\u2019s the podcast power up to make note of it! The stupid-crap-from-my-day-celebrations stop today! This week! Yay for today!
