good afternoon everyone (except those on the west coast where it is still morning) herein is an article that appeared in the recent Woman' World. yes i am an avid reader of said magazine for the following reasons 1) I enjoy the food recipes' why ( because I do all the cooking) I enjoy the helpful hints re cleaning ( As I do all the housecleaning) and 3) because I am extremely domesticated. here goes : " Havin trouble getting past the little disappointments of the day? (quite appropiate for us tmer"s) Try glaspng your hands and reaching them over your head for a count of 10 .. this move shifts your thoughts upward toward your successes, reports show. However moving your body down - like touching your toes ( like Right I haven't been able to do that since puberty) -makes you feel more negative. WHY IT WORKS literature and movies teach us to literaly associate upward movements with achievement- that's why we say things like " i feel on top of the world". Downward movements by contrast are linked to unpleasant experiences, such as " down in the dumps" explains study coauthor Daniel Casasanto,ph.d. hope this helps others as it has helped me between cooking and cleaning enjoy.
