7 simple habits that will make you happier every day

Rediscovering lost joy

Joy is like a path that was once explored, but over time has deteriorated and been left behind.

Nevertheless, it still holds its magic, like a forgotten refuge that still maintains its serenity.

As you step on the accelerator, you embark on a journey along that path that once held meaning for someone. You increase the speed until you reach 95 km/h.

The wind forcefully moves your hair.

The sun envelops you in an atmosphere of visible calmness, even reflected in the metallic frames of your glasses.

The radio music touches your spirit and frees your deepest thoughts.

The melodies speak directly to you, assuring you that everything is fine now.

They whisper promises of better days to come.

After months, you manage to find inner peace.

The yellow marks on the road shine brightly beneath your eyes.

The wooded surroundings reveal the natural beauty that surrounds you.

It's a charming spectacle you don't want to end. You keep driving towards the twilight.

You move towards unknown lands full of wonder and surprises.

As your speed increases, you find mental calm.

At this point, you feel absolute tranquility.

That peace always accompanies you.

Keep that sense of adventure along untraveled paths within you.

In tense moments, close your eyes and imagine that freedom and purity of the fresh air.

May that serenity never fade within you.

Happiness is like a sandcastle

Building a sand monument is a chaotic act that seems doomed to fail from the start.

When you fill your bucket with wet sand and begin to shape it, you often have no clear idea of where to start.

You may get lost in distractions from those around you, and when you return to your starting point, you realize that what you have built has no shape at all.

However, it is crucial to remember that not all is lost.

Do not give up. Persist in your attempts over and over until you achieve something wonderful.

Wait until dusk and the beginning of the night.

Your family will be there to support you, celebrating each step forward towards triumph.

When you finish that sand monument, adding the finishing touches, they will capture that last moment in a photograph to immortalize it.

Then you will return home celebrating your minor achievements towards full happiness.

You will promise to frame that photo in your future home to remember that memorable evening with affection.

The dictionary offers us a formal definition of happiness: "the state or condition of feeling content."

But this explanation falls short of embracing the intense emotions and intimate experiences associated with this feeling. Happiness is experienced beyond these formal words; it is found on less traveled paths, ephemeral sand monuments, and small fireflies lighting up the night.

These tangible experiences can paint a much richer picture of what it means to be happy, awakening deep sensations.

So I ask you: what is your true emotional state? Immerse yourself in these evocative visual metaphors to discover what truly fills your soul.

Discovering Inner Happiness

In the journey towards happiness, I have encountered stories that illuminate how our connection with the stars can guide us towards a fulfilling life. One of these stories comes from an unforgettable session with Marina, a determined yet frustrated Aries.

Marina came to me seeking guidance; her entrepreneurial spirit and impetuous energy typical of Aries had taken her far in her career, but something was missing. "I don't understand," she said, "why don't I feel complete?". This is a common dilemma I see in my sessions: successful individuals still searching for that spark of happiness.

I suggested to Marina to explore activities that nourished her inner fire beyond work. I talked to her about meditation and mindfulness, effective techniques to find balance and inner peace, especially for someone as dynamic as her. At first, Marina was skeptical. "Me? Still?", she teased with laughter.

But she tried. And something wonderful happened. She discovered in the silence a space where her energy could flow freely without external expectations or pressures. This was eye-opening for Marina. Her external pursuit of success had overshadowed the importance of emotional and mental well-being.

I shared this case during a motivational talk about the importance of aligning our actions with our emotional and intellectual well-being. Quoting Marina was powerful; she embodied the combative and passionate spirit of Aries but also highlighted how even the bravest need moments of calm and internal reflection.

This example underscores a universal truth: regardless of the sign under which we are born, discovering happiness is a journey inwards. As an astrologer and psychologist, I have observed how zodiac traits can influence our preferences and behaviors, but also how self-help tools can be universal in our quest for balance and fulfillment.

So I encourage you to explore different paths towards your emotional and intellectual well-being. Perhaps it's through art for sensitive Pisces or through intellectual debates for curious Geminis; the important thing is to find what makes your soul resonate.

Discovering happiness is a personal and untransferable journey but profoundly enriching when we allow ourselves to explore all its dimensions.
