Extreme Life Makeover: Rebuild Your Life with a Can-Do Attitude
America is the land of do-it-yourselfers, dedicated to rebuilding from the ground up. Apply that same can-do attitude to change lives this June during national Rebuild Your Life Month.
An extreme life makeover is possible when your goal is to have a positive outlook despite life's challenges, according to JourneywithSpirit.com, a self-help spiritual Web site that offers simple tools for relieving stress and rebuilding your life.
Recreate your life one day at a time by following an inspirational calendar of made-in-America June holidays. In just one month you can focus on creating a balanced attitude, healing your relationships, finding your inner voice, and laughing and letting go.
Feel out of balance? Readjust your outlook for National Attitude Day on June 5. Studies from the Mayo Clinic have shown that people with an optimistic outlook experience increased longevity and energy, a greater sense of peace and happiness, and fewer limitations due to pain.
Need to rebuild your bridges? June 9 is the day to Profess Your Love, mending broken relationships and forging new ones. Try out the Power of a Smile on June 15 to smooth your daily interactions. If a certain someone liked your smile, then it's on to Sneak a Kiss Day on June 16.
Crave time alone to regroup? Quietly celebrate Hermit Week by retreating to your inner cave during the third week of June. Be still, listening to that small voice within for new solutions to resolve everyday situations.
Ready to let the good times roll? According to the Journal of General Psychology, when people are alone, they are more likely to talk to themselves than to laugh. If you're one of the laughers, then get your guffaws ringing for Mirth Day on June 22. That expulsion of air readies you for Let it Go Day on June 23, when you tie your troubles to the tail of a balloon and send them flying.
On June 25, you can look in the mirror and admire the fruits of your life rebuilding project. It's LEON Day, which is noel spelled backwards. There's only six months left until Christmas, and you've just given yourself an early gift—a new attitude.
ABOUT JOURNEYWITHSPIRIT.COM JourneywithSpirit.com offers tools for creating simple spiritual practices for stress-free living, including affirmations, meditations and inspirational web movies.
