You’re Not Born Happy • You’re Made Happy:

The Secrets of the Uplifted Mind & Joyful Soul

Is life getting you down? Do you feel overwhelmed, sad or anxious about the future? If so, then here’s a great solution for you. On a Love University Podcast with host Dr. Alex Avila, Susan shared her recipe for living an uplifted, peaceful and joyful life. Some of the many topics covered include… • Practice the Golden Rule without guarantees. • Treat your mind like a garden. • Look for meaningful coincidences. • Assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled. Speak kindly and sweetly—you may have to eat your words. • Instead of asking “Why is this happening to me?” ask “Why is this happening for me?” Susan concludes with a simple truth: Love is the ultimate force in the Universe. Tap into it and you will achieve your fullest potential and she tells us exactly how to do this in her celebrated book UPLIFTED. When you love yourself, she says, you become stronger and indestructible, and then you can love others more. When you love a Higher Nature (God, spirit), you will receive the faith-filled power to be optimistic and resilient when things get tough. Because you know that the Higher Nature is guiding you and wants the best for you (and for Susan it’s important to live a God-centered life), you will feel confident, peaceful and secure.

The Secrets of the Uplifted Mind & Joyful Soul - VIDEO

Is life getting you down? Do you feel overwhelmed, sad or anxious about the future? If so, then there’s a great solution for you. On a Love University Podcast with host Dr. Alex Avila, Susan shared her recipe for living an uplifted, peaceful and joyful life. Here are some of the many topics covered in this inspiring interview:

*Practice the Golden Rule without guarantees. When you treat others the way you would like to be treated, you are practicing the Golden Rule. When you are kind and giving to others without expecting anything in return, you are offering unconditional love to the world. By doing this, the universe will return the favor in amazing ways by giving you the people, resources and opportunities that will light up your life.

*Treat your mind like a garden. Susan tells us that our minds are like gardens where we plant our thought seeds. In life, it’s true that we can control three major things: What we eat, how we move (exercise) and what we think. Therefore, if you want a beautiful mental garden filled with flowers of compassion, love and goodness, then you need to plant those thought seeds in your mind first (think positive and loving thoughts).

*Look for meaningful coincidences. In her life, Susan has many stories of being open to meeting new people and experiencing amazing and uplifting coincidences. In one case, Susan was having a nature outing, and she randomly met a crying, depressed woman. She stopped to give her advice and recommended that she stay at Susan’s favorite bed and breakfast in England (the woman had always wanted to go to England). Before long, the crying lady went to England and met the owner, who turned out to be a brother whom she had never met (she was adopted). As a result, they began a beautiful family relationship, and Susan was overjoyed that she could help. The message: Be on the lookout for chance meetings and random occurrences that can transform your life.

*Assume the feeling of the wish fulfilled. When you want something very much, don’t just think about it. Ask yourself what you would feel (happy, excited) if you had what you desired (love, career, success). Then, go around with that feeling in your heart, and chances are, you will attract the very person, thing or circumstance you desire.

*Speak kindly—you may have to eat your words. Susan gives us very valuable advice: You never know when your words may come back to you; therefore, always speak kindly, sweetly and lovingly to others. If you are rude and critical to others, they will probably be the same way toward you (or they will secretly resent you). But, if you speak with kindness and encouragement, you will create more harmonious and positive relationships.

*Instead of asking “Why is this happening to me?” ask “Why is this happening for me?” Susan advises us to stop playing the victim role. Although you may have, in reality, suffered or have been a victim, you can choose to move on from your pain and go in a positive direction with what you have learned. The good news is that every door that closes opens a new door to possibility, hope and love. Be open to learning from your past and growing into a wonderful new future.

Susan concludes with a simple truth: Love is the ultimate force in the Universe. Tap into it and you will achieve your fullest potential. When you love yourself, you become stronger and indestructible, and then you can love others more. When you love a Higher Nature (God, spirit), you will receive the faith-filled power to be optimistic and resilient when things get tough. Because you know that the Higher Nature is guiding you and wants the best for you (and for Susan it’s important to live a God-centered life), you will feel confident, peaceful and secure. Susan concludes with this: “Laugh and the whole world laughs with you.” There is nothing more beautiful than a world of laughing and joyous people who see the beauty and wonder of life. Laugh and you will uplift yourself and the world.

If You Need to Be UPLIFTED… (Video Interview)

On all of the news channels these days, we are bombarded with negative news. If you are like most people, you are probably more anxious, depressed and stressed each day — or at least feeling out of balance. In this television interview with host Carlos Amezcua, Susan shares some simple tips to help you unwind, chill out and get your life back to your positive, relaxed center. She tells us that we are in charge of what we think, how much exercise we get and the foods we eat, and we must all make wise choices daily because our future depends on the choices we make today. Susan’s celebrated book UPLIFTED goes into all this in much greater detail, but this TV interview will give you a jumpstart to having the courage of a lion, putting wings under your self-esteem and confidence and keeping you in the pink and full of vitality.
