Ep. 3 - Mindfully HappyKeeping things in mind requires effort so having little reminders can help. Saying "HaHa" is one way to keep Happy in mind.

Ep. 4 - Emotional AgilityExercise your emotions to be ready to feel and not be overwhelmed when something happens that triggers a strong response. Use Art, Science and Philosophy, to connect with Humanity. Practice, scrimmage, role play. Don't get stuck on revenge and spite because you will not be proud of yourself later. You may feel a release, but it doesn't improve your mood or mental health. Things happen, they don't happen TO YOU. So, control how you react by preparing for emotions by practicing them.

Ep. 6 - Emotional HonestyThe first step to gaining a mastery over your emotions is facing those things about yourself that make you feel mad, sad, glad, hopeful, guilty and afraid. Do you cheat at crosswords? Do you secretly curse out your so-called friends? Do you like to drink the juice that collects at the bottom of packages of ham slices? You don't have to reveal your secrets to the world, but if you regret hating your father now that he's dead then at least own up to that to yourself. Acknowledgement is the first step, but the journey doesn't end there. Recommended Episode: Ep. 4 - Emotional Agility Supporting Media (goes to Videos page): Unsettled Tells

Ep. 233 - The Happy SaintInherently Happy - Episode two-thirty-three - The Happy Saint First the Happy Creed: We believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful, Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends My mother Barbara Ann Storrs Bennett Ulrich, passed away peacefully on February 12, 2022 at the age of 85. And she was the closest thing to a Happy Saint as I have ever seen. She was pleasant and resourceful, always rallying her friends and family for some cause or another, and she knew how to say thank you in the best of ways. She was the kind of person who if you, say, went to a restaurant with her, by the time you left you would know the names and life stories of the hostess, the server, the chef, the owner, the busboy, and the people sitting at nearby tables. And she could be so understanding too, like, if you made a mistake, and she knew it was an accident, then she could be incredibly forgiving. If you did something wrong on purpose, however, well, that might not go by without remark or corrective steps taken. For she was also vigilant. I, myself, ran afoul of her a few times, and I can still taste the soap she washed my mouth out with. And, as I was a bit of a handful as a youth, --a foul-mouthed troublemaker, to be plain-- that displayed incredible restraint on her part. And she wasn’t just nice to talk to and genuinely interested in other people, she also loved introducing them to each other, to give them a chance to meet incredibly interesting people too. She had friends from her childhood, friends from her neighborhood, from her town, from her clubs and societies, and also people she randomly met in line at the bank. Seriously. Many is the time she started sentences with “I have to tell you about this interesting person I just met…” and that meeting typically occurred in the most random of places. And those chance meetings, and little acts of random kindness, sometimes developed into lifelong connections. She was on the Town Welcome Wagon committee when we were kids, and she welcomed a family from Pakistan, the Khans, who had just moved there. They had to rent a small apartment while they went house hunting and as they has no bedding, dishes or utensils yet my mom called around to make sure she could get enough of everything to supply them. No one else on the Welcome Wagon had bothered to so much as talk to the Khans, but since my mother was so great with them, and my dad liked them too, which was a bit more rare, they became my second set of godparents. My first set lived overseas but, apparently, Mom felt I needed a local one too. Oh, and the home my new godparents wound up buying was a nice, little, nine-bedroom mansion with a garage bigger than my house! They had a swimming pool, a dog kennel, multiple TV rooms, visitors from all over the world, six kids of various ages, and a seemingly endless supply of ice cream. They became our extended family and I could invite anyone up there I wished. Mom made friends so easily, I think, because, as dad would say, she was completely without guile. She was exactly who she seemed to be, friendly, inquisitive, genuinely interested, and fiercely loyal. Her friends appreciated her so much, they invited the rest of us to their clubs, societies, and special events-- often because Mom had been the one who introduced most of them to those clubs, societies and special events in the first place. If she could get a ne’er-do-well such as I had been to canvass voters door to door as a teenager, then she could get anyone to do anything. She never missed a chance to remember someone’s birthday, anniversary or life event, with a card or a care package. She insisted we never show up at someone’s house without a gift, and that we send a thank you note afterwards. Picture her getting a teenager to pick out a housewarming gift and then handwriting a thank you card on multiple occasions and you will see that the moniker of The Happy Saint carries with it both a force of will as well as a tranquility of spirit. She always wanted to make sure everyone got along, and she loved that everyone wasn’t the same, as she often used to say to me when I was a kid, “if everyone was the same then the world would be borrrr-rrring.” She was the best of us, she taught me how to be kind, friendly, and resourceful, and of the importance of keeping my elbows off the table, and I taught her how to be silly. For I wouldn’t consider a conversation complete if I couldn’t make her laugh by the end of it. And laugh she did. Haha Yowza

Ep. 343 - The Happy TruthWithout Truth there can be no Trust, and for Balance and Growth, Trust is a must. The Happy Truth If you’re gonna lie, at least try and make it believable, so that it resembles something true. Don’t make it inconceivable to buy it when you claim something you did or didn’t do. First you need a Liar’s mindset, and that can easily be faked, you just have to think you deserve more than you get, and so your claims deserve to be staked. The World doesn’t always agree with us though we still try to make it, but a Liar’s lazy and rewrites the record instead of trying to honestly break it. Lies can be bold, and Lies can be gentle, while Truth can be cold, and far too judgmental. So, why tell the Truth when Lies are so easy? Because without Truth there can be no Trust, No firm foundation--the world tilts and you get queasy. And to build Balance and Growth, Trust is a must. Happy Lord Geoffrey

Ep. 352 - The Happy UnknownEmbrace the Uncertainty. Recommended Episodes: Ep. 135 - Happy Certainty Ep. 263 - Happy Permission *** The Happy Unknown We begin as always with the Happy Creed. We believe in Happy, in Balance and Growth, of being Mindful and Grateful, Compassionate and Understanding. Yowza Haha My Happy Friends! People often fear the unknown ‘Cause they’ve been taught to fear it since before they were grown, But here’s the funny bit, there’s way more outside the zone of what there is fully known. The cosmos is a huge mystery. Sure, we may have our guesses, but take one look at history To see we find more Nos than Yeses, Though we wrack our brains raw and blistery, We have a tough time telling what’s golden or just glistery. When we go to sleep, we don’t know what we’ll dream, when we wake up, we don’t know which breath will be our last, or even what unlikely trend will next become mainstream. Stock analysts and meteorologists gamble on every forecast, Yesterday’s anecdote may become tomorrow’s viral meme, Uncertainty is all around us, an endlessly recurring theme. So, I say, don’t let your fear get too overblown, not knowing everything isn’t the same as fire and brimstone, you can simply accept and embrace the Happy Unknown. Haha Yowza
