When I feel happy, I can smile
The biggest smile I know.
Then you can see my happies show.

Ha, ha, ha, hee, hee, hee.
Come on get silly and laugh with me.
Giggle gaggle, wiggle waggle, ho, ho, ho.
When you're feeling happy, let it show.

I got the sillies and when you get 'em,
You'll be silly like me.
I can't stop laughing as you can see.

Ha, ha, ha, hee, hee, hee.
Come on get silly and laugh with me.
Giggle gaggle, wiggle waggle, ho, ho, ho.
When you get the sillies, let it show.

I've got a tickle, it makes me wiggle.
It makes me jiggle too.
Can't hold it in. I just gotta giggle.

Ha ha ha, hee, hee, hee.
Come on get silly and laugh with me.
Giggle gaggle, wiggle waggle, ho, ho, ho.
I've got a tickle, here I go!
Ha ha ha, hee hee hee.

Come on get silly and laugh with me.
Giggle gaggle, wiggle waggle, ho ho ho.
When you're feeling happy, (Feeling happy)
When you've got the sillies, (Got the sillies)
When you've got a tickle, (Got a tickle)
Let... it... show!

(Lyrics from Barney & Friends, "Laugh with me")

Exercises:

सबसे पहली exercise: Dirt Removal: अपने शरीर, कपड़ों आदि पर हाथ फेर कर सारी गंदगी धूल, False Beliefs, Tensions, Stress, Anxiety आदि निकाल दो. और हंसो हा हा हा।
The Five Senses Exercise: First, notice 5 things that you can see. Look around you and become aware of your environment. Try to pick out something that you don’t usually notice. Second, notice 4 things you can feel. Bring attention to the things that you’re currently feeling, such as the texture of your clothing or the smooth surface of the table you’re resting your hands on. Third, notice 3 things that you can hear. Listen for and notice things in the background that you don’t normally notice. It could be the birds chirping outside or an appliance humming in the next room. Fourth, notice 2 things you can smell. Bring attention to scents that you usually filter out, either pleasant or unpleasant. Catch a whiff of the pine trees outside or food cooking in the kitchen. Finally, notice 1 thing you can taste. Take a sip of a drink, chew gum, or notice the current taste in your mouth.

एक आर्मी के ऑफिसर की तरह (मेजर) की तरह छाती चौड़ी करके चलो दिन भर। Ha Ha Ha. याद रखो Motion sets Emotions (Laughter Guru Dr. Madan Kataria).
EXTRA: Laughter को daily routine में शामिल करें जैसे फोन पर Hi कहने की जगह Ha Ha कहो।
I know our thoughts lead to our moods. So just laugh change your mood. Ha ha ha with joy.
Close your eyes and meet the monkey mind (the unwanted thoughts)(put aside the judging mind for a little while) (Don't act on your thoughts). इस मुलाकात के बाद हंसो ha ha ha.(Link)
EXTRA: Our thoughts are just below the surface. Make a mental list of all your perceived defects, all the things that you think is wrong with you. Are they all true? Are you really so bad? “How do I know this is true?” or “Who is telling me it is true, and why do I believe them?” Ha ha ha with joy. “If you accept a limiting belief, then it will become truth for you.” ~Louise Hay. “for there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”- William Shakespeare. (Link)
EXTRA: This is a three-step process: 1. We notice that we are having a particular thought 2. We accept the thought as a thought without judgement 3. Rather than suppressing, distracting, positive replacements or arguing, we acknowledge its presence and let it go. (Link)
EXTRA: How to disconnect from a thought: Let us imagine that you are aware of the thought “I am a bad person”. 1. Think the thought “I am a bad person” for a few seconds ... notice how that feels. 2. Think “I am thinking the thought I am a bad person” for a few seconds … notice how that feels. 3. Think “I am aware that I am thinking the thought I am a bad person” for a few seconds … notice how that feels. (Link)
EXTRA: The “60 Seconds Process”: 1. At first put a watch down in front of you to time the 60 seconds (with practice you will be able to gauge the time accurately for yourself). 2. Sit in a comfortable position, stop what you are doing and be still for 60 seconds (remember to breathe normally)3. If a “bad thought” arises in your mind 4. Immediately say to yourself (silently) "I am thinking “bad thought” 5. Wait a second 6. Follow with (silently) "I am aware that I am thinking “bad thought” 7. Wait a second 8. Notice the difference 9. Go back to paying attention to what is going on in the mind. 10. When another “bad thought” arises repeat this process 11. Continue until the 60 seconds are up. (Link) For example if you have an image of your angry father pop into your mind leaning down to tell you off. You could use:• I am seeing this image of my father • I am aware that I am seeing this image of my father. If (in your mind's ear) you hear your mother's voice telling you off. You could use: • I am hearing my mother's voice telling me off • I am aware that I am hearing my mother's voice telling me off. If I say to myself “I am so stupid” • I am telling myself “I am so stupid” • I am aware that I am telling myself “I am so stupid”.
EXTRA: I follow The Socratic Method: the Questions for Clarification (CL). Questions that probe Assumptions (AS). Questions that probe Reasons and Evidence (RE).

Failing Forward (Setbacks can fuel future success. ): “Success consists of going from failure to failure without loss of enthusiasm.”
~Winston Churchill

Fail early, fail often, but always fail forward.” ― John Maxwell, Failing Forward

“Judgment is painful, so rest. Recover. Love on yourself.”

“Feelings matter, but they are also excellent liars. Start with the facts instead.”

“If you’re ruminating on something, ask yourself if anything is left in the memory that will serve you... If there’s nothing left to help you, it’s okay to work on releasing the judgment.”

“There is no need to judge yourself for judging yourself. It’s like getting a houseplant only to put it on the top shelf of a dark closet—you need space, time, and sunlight to grow.”
