“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness that most frightensus.We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who areyou not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Find your balance

From finding peace and rest on the inside, to the feeling full of 

life and energy on the outside. You do not have to become a 

monk or nun or sit on a mountaintop meditating 

for seven years.

Page 20: Live Love Enjoy 2015 YEARBOOK · Last year´s words belong to last year´s language and next year´s words await another voice" T.S Elliot Jorunn Krokeide 2015 Thank you 2014

But do not use your mobile as a pacifier, and do not live at a fast pace without taking care 

of your body.

Find your energy, enthusiasm and inspiration. 

Find things that makeyou happy. 

Be active....but learn to find peace and unwind when you need it.

“Man surprised me most about humanity. Because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.Then he sacrifices money to recuperate his health. And then he is so anxious about the future that he does not enjoy the present; the result being that he does not live in the present or the future; he lives as if he is never going to die, and then dies having never really lived.”Dalai Lama - James J. Lachard

Throughout the year you'll get twosmall tips each month that you canfocus on.One awareness tip and one health orlifestyle tip.

Practice focusing on your breathing.Always be mindful that you not hold yourbreath unconsciously. 

To train yourself to be aware of your breathing, create an attention bell.An attention bell is something that, everytime you do it or see it you will be reminded to check your breathing.

You will be reminded to make sure that you are not holding your breath.You will be reminded to observe breathingin and breathing out.

Your bell must be something that you dooften throughout the day or see regularly. This can be something as simple as drinking tea or going to the bathroom.... 

Place a few notes or a few stickers around the house so that you get regular reminders.

Practice being presence when you are eating. Presence must be rehearsed. It does not come naturally to everyone, orwe've lost it the hustle and bustle.

Sit down when you eat. Do not multitask.Try to enjoy the food.Don't just eat it; focus on it with all of yoursenses. How does it smell like, taste like, sound like, look like?Tell yourself "I will practice awareness atmeal times".Tips - imagine you're sitting in a luxuryrestaurant.

Balance activity and restWhich one thing can you do to balanceactivity and rest?Take a look at your life. Is your sleep a priority?Do you work too much? Do you spend too much time on the couch ? Is your candle burning at both ends? Our bodies needs both recovery and activity. What things can you do to gain better balance of activity and rest now?

Whether you walk or run, practice awareness when you move, 

Focus on what's happening around you.For example, in nature, there's the changing of seasons. 

Use your senses. Simultaneously focus onwhat is happening in your body and on your feet touching the ground. It's the same when you run, acquaint yourfeet touching the ground and the air youbreathe in and out.

What can you do tohave more fun andlaugh more?It is good medicine in a good laugh.Studies have linked laughter with betterimmunity and stress reduction. That's reason enough for a good laugh.

What can you do to have more fun and to laugh more?

“I don't trust anyone who doesn't laugh.” - Maya Angelou

Do you self sabotages with your thoughts?Try to think positively about yourself and others.If in doubt, observe your negative thoughts for 3 hours and see how you feel.Then be aware of all your positive thoughts for the next 3 hours and check how you feel.You are not meant to deny yourthoughts and emotions, that is not good for you. But sometimes it can be good for us to talk more positively to ourselves and not let negative thoughts take over. I'll practice when?

Spring! 

What do you want to let go of ?What do you need to declutter, your house,your body, your mind?

Afterwards, plan and create space for new stuff. What can you do detox your body? (Double the greens and half or no sugar?)

You can´t reach for anything new if your hands arestill full off yesterdays junk. - Louise smith

Gratitude gives superpowers and countless benefits. How will you "count your blessings"?For example, note three things you aregrateful for every evening.How will you do it this month, in a diary,in an app, in a notebook?

Go green.....

Green vegetables are full of chlorophylland nutrients. Broccoli, cabbage, spinach...Eat at least one a day or drink a smoothie.

Eat vegetables with other colors too.They contain lots of antioxidants.

What will you do to go green, red,yellow, orange and blue? 

"Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” ― Michael Pollan

We are totally dependent on people around us, but we take a lot for granted.Choose one day this month in whichyou say thank you to everything that ends.When you get off the bus - thanks. When you go shopping gor food -thanks.Thanks to those who grew it, made it, shipped it - thanks.At the end of the day - thanks, for everything you have done and everything have come through that day. Thank thebody that automatically performs so manyfunctions every day.What day will I do this:

Give your thanks

Whenever you feel sad, just remember that thereare billions of cells in your body and all they careabout is you
