Remember the Light Side
In Praise of Fun

by Madisyn Taylor

During our journey we can become very serious, it is important to remember to have fun along the way.


Often when we talk about fun, or doing things just for fun, we talk about it in a dismissive way as if fun isn't important. We tend to value hard work and seriousness, and we forget to pay our respects to the equally important, light side of silliness and laughter. This is ironic because we all know the feeling of euphoria that follows a good burst of laughter, and how it leaves us less stressed, more openhearted, and more ready to reach out to people. We are far more likely to walk down the street smiling and open after we've had a good laugh, and this tends to catch on, inspiring smiles from the people we pass who then positively influence everyone they encounter. Witnessing this kind of chain reaction makes you think that having fun might be one of our most powerful tools for changing the world.

Laughter is good medicine, and we all have this medicine available to us whenever we recall a funny story or act in a silly way. We magnify the effects of this medicine when we share it with the people in our lives. If we are lucky, they will have something funny to share with us as well, and the life-loving sound of laughter will continue to roll out of our mouths and into the world.

Of course, it is also important to allow ourselves to be serious and to honor that side of ourselves so that we stay balanced. After a great deal of merriment, it can actually be a pleasure to settle down and focus on work, or take some time for introspection until our next round of fun begins.

    Discover the Joy of Your Own Being & more courses!

    Dear DailyOM Friend,

    We're honored to share with you these on-line courses on DailyOM this week:

    Discover the Joy of Your Own Being by Roger Housden - This 4 week course with prolific author, Roger Housden, will give you tools and exercises to unearth your own wellspring of joys. We can spend a lot of time telling people about our difficulties and sorrows, but far less in sharing our joys and delights, as if doing so might make us seem special in some way, or stand out from the crowd. As children we may have been told to quieten down, to fit in, to control our exuberances. The result is all too often the plague of self-doubt, blocked creativity, and a lack of trust in our own inspirations and pleasures. This course will reaffirm the value of your own creativity, your own preferences, and your own indivi! dual voice. And it will show that, to discover your own value, you need look no further than the life you already have! You will learn to increase your everyday moments of joy and delight, become more attentive and present to the world of the senses, see beauty in the ordinary, and encourage the joy that does not depend on external circumstances. In essence, you will discover the joy of your own being! more


    How to Be a Phenomenal Receiver by Lisa Zimmerman - This 8 week course with Lisa Zimmerman, Transformational Consultant and Avatar Master, will teach you how to be proactive and take responsibility for allowing yourself to receive the goodness the Universe has to offer you. Do not pretend that you can go on in your life out of balance in over giving and under receiving and still live happily. You deserve so much more than that! Through this course, you will discover why it's so much easier to give than to receive, how to know what your needs really are and how to get them met, and how to language requests in ways that create positive outcomes. You will learn the secrets of attracting and allowing people in! to your orbit who want to help you, making deep connections that can change your life and bring goodwill. Through this process you will become more trusting, open, compassionate and joyful in your life…receiving all the good that's naturally coming to you! more


    Thriving with Quantum Feng Shui by Gabrielle Alizay - This 11 week course with International Feng Shui consultant, Gabrielle Alizay, will teach you how to integrate Intentional Living Feng Shui into your home and office in order to generate a personal and planetary optimistic shift. The course will educate you from the perspective of ancient Feng Shui philosophies, scientific particulars from quantum physics, psychology, biology and the brain, as well as insightful antidotes influenced by the spirit teachings of various cultures of humanity. Each week, you will then integrate a new Intentional Living Feng Shui Accomplishment into your dwelling, being guided to consciously notice any shifts and transformations regarding! happiness, empowerment, love, health, career, relationships, abundance, your self, your loved ones, your home and office, the world in general, and yes, with the planet. more


    Thrive During Mercury Retrograde by Dr. Janet Woods - Three times a year the planet Mercury wreaks havoc on us mortals by going. Retrograde. In astrology, when a planet goes retrograde, it exerts a negative influence in the areas of life that it rules. Mercury is the planet of time, communication, and commerce. Which means for 3 weeks, these areas will be out of balance, and chaos abounds. Computers break down, everything and everybody is late, miscommunications in relationships are causing upsets, and Murphy's Law is in effect, when anything that can go wrong will. This 30-day course is designed to teach you how to use Mother Nature's cycle to your advantage, let go of the worries associated with retrogrades, an! d actually create a life full of accomplishments, and have a sense of serenity and security. more

    DailyOM: Life Transitions

    Life Transitions
    The Death and Rebirth of Self

    by Madisyn Taylor

    Sometimes a part of us must die before another part can come to life.


    Sometimes a part of us must die before another part can come to life. Even though this is a natural and necessary part of our growth, it is often painful or, if we don't realize what's happening, confusing and disorienting. In fact, confusion and disorientation are often the messengers that tell us a shift is taking place within us. These shifts happen throughout the lives of all humans, as we move from infancy to childhood to adolescence and beyond. With each transition from one phase to another, we find ourselves saying good-bye to an old friend, the identity that we formed in order to move through that particular time.

    Sometimes we form these identities in relationships or jobs, and when we shift those areas of our life become unsettled. Usually, if we take the time to look into the changing surface of things, we will find that a shift is taking place within us. For example, we may go through one whole chapter of our lives creating a protective shell around ourselves because we need it in order to heal from some early trauma. One day, though, we may find ourselves feeling confined and restless, wanting to move outside the shelter we needed for so long; the new part of ourselves cannot be born within the confines of the shell our old self needed to survive.

    We may feel a strange mixture of exhilaration and sadness as we say good-bye to a part of ourselves that is dying and make way for a whole new identity to emerge in its place. We may find inspiration in working with the image of an animal who molts or sheds in order to make way for new skin, fur, or feathers to emerge. For example, keeping a duck feather, or some other symbol of transformation, can remind us that death and rebirth are simply nature's way of evolving. We can surrender to this process, letting go of our past self with great love and gratitude, and welcoming the new with an open mind and heart, ready for our next phase of life.
