Happiness starts with us.

"Small happiness" starts with ourselves more easily than you think. Try these methods.

1. Start from an idea

Look at your surroundings positively, reduce your comparison with others, and focus on what we have.

2. Thank you for the small things in life.

Just waking up, eating delicious food or caring people is a pleasure.

3. Care for the body

Exercise gently, walk, rest enough. Good body. Good heart.

4. Do what love

Listen to music, plant trees, read books, or do small pastimes that invigorate the mind.

5. Stay with the present

Don't sink in the past. Don't worry about the future too much. Take "now" to be valuable.

6. Lower expectations

The less expected, the less disappointed, the easier to see happiness.

7. Give without hope

Helping others a little will make our hearts incredibly rich.

8. Speak well to yourself

Stop blaming yourself and turn to encourage yourself.

9. Smile for yourself every day.

Sometimes just "smiling" can change the mood all day.

# Happiness can be created by ourselves

... Read moreในชีวิตประจำวัน ความสุขเล็กๆ น้อยๆ ที่เรามักมองข้ามนั้นสามารถมีผลดีต่อสุขภาพจิตของเราอย่างมาก เมื่อได้ลองนำแนวทางต่างๆ เช่น การโฟกัสกับสิ่งที่เรามีแทนการเปรียบเทียบกับผู้อื่น การขอบคุณสิ่งเล็กๆ ที่เกิดขึ้นในแต่ละวัน รวมถึงการดูแลสุขภาพด้วยการออกกำลังกายเบาๆ หรือเดินเล่นในสวน ก็ช่วยทำให้จิตใจเราสงบและสดชื่นขึ้นได้จริงๆ จากประสบการณ์ส่วนตัว เมื่อเริ่มปรับเปลี่ยนวิธีคิดและให้ความสำคัญกับปัจจุบัน ทำให้เห็นว่าความสุขไม่ได้ขึ้นอยู่กับสิ่งของหรือสถานะ แต่มาจากความพึงพอใจในสิ่งที่มีและความสามารถในการตอบแทนผู้อื่นโดยไม่มีเงื่อนไข อีกทั้งการพูดดีกับตัวเองและยิ้มให้ตัวเองทุกเช้า ช่วยเปลี่ยนอารมณ์และเปิดใจรับสิ่งดีๆ ที่จะเข้ามาในวันนั้นได้อย่างไม่น่าเชื่อ นอกจากนี้ การลดความคาดหวังลงก็เป็นกุญแจสำคัญที่ทำให้เรารับมือกับความผิดหวังได้ดีขึ้น เมื่อไม่ตั้งมาตรฐานสูงเกินไป ใจก็จะรู้สึกสบายและรับรู้ความสุขได้จากเรื่องเล็กๆ รอบตัวมากขึ้น การให้และช่วยเหลือผู้อื่นเล็กๆ น้อยๆ แม้จะดูเหมือนไม่มาก แต่กลับเป็นการเติมเต็มและทำให้จิตใจของเรารู้สึกอิ่มเอมในทุกๆ วัน ท้ายที่สุด การดูแลจิตใจด้วยวิธีนี้ไม่ใช่เรื่องยากหรือไกลตัวเลย หากเราลองเปิดใจและเริ่มต้นจากตัวเราเอง ความสุขเล็กๆ ที่เกิดขึ้นทุกวัน จะรวมกันเป็นความสุขที่ยิ่งใหญ่และยั่งยืนในชีวิตของเราได้อย่างแท้จริง

Peace starts from inside you ☁️
True lasting joy cannot be given to you by outside people or circumstances; it blooms from a grounded, stable inner self. Treat your heart and mind with soft kindness as you walk through your healing journey. Progress doesn’t have to be fast, it just needs to be consistent.— Steadylnner #Steadyl

Last summer I read it ends with us and just got around to reading starts with us. Not gonna lie, kinda disappointed. Atlas is super sweet and absolutely deserved a HEA. I just really thought there’d be more drama/conflict than what happened. I feel like Colleen rushed to give this book an end

I love this book as a reminder on how to live in the present moment and why it is so important. 🤍 We overcomplicate it so much when the answers are right in front of us and are so simple. We waste so much time worrying, stressing, hurting, hurting others, and often we know we are self sabotagi

I absolutely loved It Starts With Us! From start to finish, it delivered exactly what I was hoping for—an emotional, heartfelt continuation of Lily and Atlas’s story. Their relationship was everything I wanted and more. Seeing them finally get the love and happiness they deserve was so fulfilling.
