Introduction
I was thinking sometime ago, about a thing which a friend of mine told me while she was visiting me at my home several months ago . We were sitting in the veranda , surrounded by a large fish aquarium , birds in cages and a small soothing water fountain, talking . We were not talking, we were complaining, wishing our lives had more of this and less of that . Then there was a moment of silence, and suddenly my friend said: If I were you, I would sit here all day! This is the solution to my problems, to have a place like this where I could forget everything and just breathe. she had said to me. I looked at her, but her words did not mean so much to me back then. All I was thinking of was my four year old boy; who wanted me to leave everything and just play with him all day, and my six months old baby boy, who takes most of my time, and who wakes me up four times at night ; my husband who works two jobs and comes home after ten P.M to provide a good life for all of us ; the annoying neighbors and their nasty kids ; my being a stay at home mom , with so much to do, and very few friends; my unfulfilled career dreams, not to mention the stuff from the past, disappointments, anger , bad memories How on earth could I leave all that , and just sit in the veranda, and watch the fish swimming ??! I guess I had reached a point in negative thinking where one day the only reason I got out of bed in the morning was my husband and kids . I had no will to get out of bed, I had my dreams and wishes, but I could not see that in any way they were to come true in the current situation.

This same friend and what she said to me on the day when she visited me, was the reason behind me wanting to search for a way to become addicted to positive thinking . I had reached a point where my focus was on what was missing. Until I woke up one day, after a lot of prayer and a lot of thinking, and I was able to see my life in a completely different shade. I realized why I was feeling the way I did, and why my life did not seem to change. It was the things I was telling myself, my self talk, until it became a habit, an addiction, you might call it, to see the negative aspects of life. What I needed was an extensive program , to develop a new way of thinking . Nothing else would work, I knew, because I had tried so many things . But the effect lasted only several weeks. But the will was so strong in me, because I love life, and I have appreciation for all the gifts which God gave us in life. I just needed something to help me remember to think about that, and keep seeing it. A process to repeat over and over, until it erases the negative filtering , and gives a new path of positive filtering. I decided to create a source of positive addiction in order to enjoy life more and be grateful for everything I already have. This workbook is what I came up with . I have applied it on to my own life, and found it had made wonders for me ..it is your turn. Now I use the 100 list for anything which blocks joy in my life, and replace it with opportunity and positivity ! You dont believe me? You can now See for yourself. You will discover how rich your life is, how interesting, how amazing, just by doing the 20 exercises! You will learn how to count your blessing, and find treasures all around you.

You only have to try and sit quietly for a minute to become aware of the huge number of thoughts that flash around in your mind. In fact, thinking speed is about 500 words per minute.
We Choose Every Thought We Think And We Can Create Any Thought We Want.
We think approximately sixty thousand thoughts daily. We are always thinking. Our mind can be our best friend or our worst enemy depending on what we choose to do with it. God has given us a powerful tool that allows us to be creators of our lives. We are completely in charge of our minds. No matter how we are feeling physically or emotionally, we are free mentally to think any thought of our choice.

Recent research proves that your brain continues to produce new neurons throughout your life. It also proves that it does so in response to stimulation ( brainpower exercises). Scientists refer to this as brain plasticity or neuro-plasticity.

The final brainwave state is delta. Here the brainwaves are of the greatest amplitude and slowest frequency. They typically center around a range of 1.5 to 4 cycles per second. They never go down to zero because that would mean that you were brain dead. But, deep dreamless sleep would take you down to the lowest frequency. Typically, 2 to 3 cycles a second. When we go to bed and read for a few minutes before attempting sleep, we are likely to be in low beta. When we put the book down, turn off the lights and close our eyes, our brainwaves will descend from beta, to alpha, to theta and finally, when we fall asleep, to delta. It is a well known fact that humans dream in 90 minute cycles. When the delta brainwave frequencies increase into the frequency of theta brainwaves, active dreaming takes place and often becomes more experiential to the person. Typically, when this occurs there is rapid eye movement, which is characteristic of active dreaming. This is called REM, and is a well known phenomenon. When an individual awakes from a deep sleep in preparation for getting up, their brainwave frequencies will increase through the different specific stages of brainwave activity. That is, they will increase from delta to theta and then to alpha and finally, when the alarm goes off, into beta. If that individual hits the snooze alarm button they will drop in frequency to a non-aroused state, or even into theta, or sometimes fall back to sleep in delta. During this awakening cycle it is possible for individuals to stay in the theta state for an extended period of say, five to 15 minutes--which would allow them to have a free flow of ideas about yesterday's events or to contemplate the activities of the forthcoming day. This time can be an extremely productive and can be a period of very meaningful and creative mental activity. In summary, there are four brainwave states that range from the high amplitude, low frequency delta to the low amplitude, high frequency beta. These brainwave states range from deep dreamless sleep to high arousal. The same four brainwave states are common to the human species. Men, women and children of all ages experience the same characteristic brainwaves. They are consistent across cultures and country boundaries. Research has shown that although one brainwave state may predominate at any given time, depending on the activity level of the individual, the remaining three brain states are present in the mix of brainwaves at all times. In other words, while somebody is an aroused state and exhibiting a beta brainwave pattern, there also exists in that person's brain a component of alpha, theta and delta, even though these may be present only at the trace level.

More relaxed Thoughts and Relaxed BodyPeople that practice deep meditation or yoga are quite familiar with the benefits of a relaxed mind and body connection. When you increase your alpha brainwave activity, you can reduce stress, anxiety, and other nervous feelings.
Access Creative StatesPeople that seem to have above average creativity, have been known to experience burst alpha brainwaves. This increase in alpha waves appears to provide insight and special problem solving skills. If you are an artist or other creative type of person, then an extra burst of alpha waves will give you a new range of
creativity. Peak Physical PerformanceYou have heard the saying, "He/she is in the zone." There is published proof that when top athletes are at the height of their game, they have alpha activity burst in the left side of their brains'. Marksmen, golfers, and elite basketball players are most likely to display an increased alpha rhythm, whereas regular folks haven't been able to tap into those levels. With brain entrainment in alpha state you can improve your peak performance.
Imagine what your life would be like if you had the ability to access your alpha brain wave activity. You could have clear and calm thoughts, which will enhance your creativity and problem solving skills. You will also have the opportunity to reach your peak performance in any athletic activity you participate in.
Why is it recommended that you do the exercises in this book while you are in the alpha state :
During alpha awareness the mind is relaxed and alert. It is a state of passive awareness, composure, and of physical and mental relaxation
20 DAYS O F WONDER 2010(C) HAPPY WOMAN COACHING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. / www.happywomancoaching.com
. Emotional sensations in the alpha state include a sense of well being, pleasure and tranquility. Alpha appears to Improve your mental processes concentration, clarity of thinking, decision making, memory Calms your body and mind while it maintains alertness Stimulates imagination, intuition and higher awareness Allows you to sleep better, fall asleep easily, stay asleep through the night Lowers levels of cortisol keeps you healthier by boosting your immune system Alpha waves increases levels of DHEA and Melatonin - slows aging process and improves sleep.
1.Understand the nuts and bolts of two systems in the body: flight and fight response, and the relaxation response. In the former, blood pressure and heart rate is elevated, and more blood is sent to the muscles of the arms and legs to prepare for immediate action. Once the danger has passed, if the heart rate and blood pressure remain elevated, the heart and immune system is taxed. The relaxation response, governed by the parasympathetic nervous system, is the opposite: lowered heart rate, blood pressure and digestion. 2.Learn a simple breathing exercise as one way to induce the relaxation response. In yoga, pranayama (breath control) detoxifies the body and helps create alpha brain waves. Sit comfortably and close your eyes. Inhale through the nose for four counts, and exhale slowly for six counts. Take a recovery breath. Repeat for 10 to 12 more rounds without forcing the breath. 3.Proceed into a short, seated meditation to allow the body to release endorphins and further deepen the relaxation response. Keeping the eyes closed, keep a steady and gentle awareness of your inhalations and exhalations. Sit quietly with this focus for 10 minutes. 4.Build on this relaxation routine by adding visualization. The next time you sit in meditation, visualize a restful, peaceful setting in nature: a quiet lake, a sunny beach or a thick forest. Imagine as many of the sounds and scents you would find in this scene. Remain in this visualized field for 10 minutes, and gradually return to your actual environment for another 10 minutes. 5.Practice progressive muscle relaxation by sitting or lying down with your eyes closed. Begin with the feet, alternately curling and fanning the toes. Move through the body from the legs to the belly, arms, neck and face, squeezing the muscles with tension and releasing the tension. 6.Use real nature pictures for meditation. amazing nature - Google Search 7.meditation music. YouTube - Tranquility - Time Solitaire. Music United with Nature. This is a 42 minutes meditation music and video.

in, and become a part of my day to day celebration and appreciation. Today, after writing this book, which I actually wrote for myself first, for my own life situation, I can say that I finally know what was missing. A commitment to positivity, to slow down and notice life, my life, and its every precious gift.
If You Are A List Person: Some people are used to writing lists for everything, in fact they enjoy the act. If you are a list person, this will come naturally to you, except that you are going to work on a big list, to finish the 100 list. There is a secret behind this big number of finding things to write about, which you will discover shortly. If YOU ARE NOT A LIST PERSON: meaning that if you are not accustomed to write lists for different things in your life, you might get a strange feeling. However, dont let this discourage you. If you really want to see positive changes in your feelings towards life, I say it is worth it to try and write a list, and extend the list as far as 100 . Read below to learn how to write it.
One hundred entries? Isnt that way too many? Bear with me: its exactly this exaggeration that makes the technique powerful. When starting your list you may believe that theres no way to get it done. But then, at some point during the exercise, you will naturally have your subconscious mind naturally engaged in the process. Thats when you will uncover many new and surprising answers, and ideas will start flowing again. Making a List of 100 is a beautifully articulated cooperation between the conscious and subconscious minds tackling one single problem. The goal of a List of 100 is to take your mind by surprise. With a List of 100 you tend to get more unexpected ideas, because you catch your subconscious off guard, not giving it any time for its behind-thescenes editing.

Ground Rules
There are only two simple principles to keep in mind when making Lists of 100:
1. Do it at one sitting A. It is preferred that you complete each list in one sitting ,to be more focused and concise in your thinking. Think of it as an interesting challenge, for your abilities, for your mind ! I had the following statement in front of me each time I worked on a list:
When life gives you 100 reasons to cry, show life that you have 1000 reasons to smile!!!
See the gifts all around you, think of the basics, and capture it all!
B. If you end up doing your hundred entries, though over many sessions, do not let it take more than the entire day .There are 30 lists to work on, so in order to complete your 30 days of wonder, it is important to note that each list really takes not more than one whole day to complete, otherwise, the program will not work. Your mind will get confused and unfocused.
2. Eliminate distractions
20 DAYS O F WONDER 2010(C) HAPPY WOMAN COACHING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. / www.happywomancoaching.com
Just like most brainstorming techniques, you should strive to eliminate all activities unrelated to idea generation during the brainstorming session. Just focus on getting the ideas out of your head as quickly as possible following these rules:
Dont judge or evaluate ideas; youll review them later. Dont write complete words or sentences if that slows you down. Dont stop to wonder how far in the list you are; number the lines from 1 to 100 in advance or use numbered lists if youre using a word processor.
Dont worry too much about repeating entries; duplicates can shed light on your patterns of thought.

sit in the once admired garden and meditate. my kids appeared to be the joy of my life ,I began noticing them, observing their existence, and remembering to see life through their simple innocent eyes. My husbands late working hours became extra time to study , organize and manage important life matters .He came home to find me energized , excited and creative. I discovered new ways to find new friends, even the annoying neighbors became the reason I appreciated my being different and content in my life. Not only that, but I found myself resolving many issues from my past, just by changing my focusing lens. So here is my gift to you, lets not wait any longer, lets begin the fun!
A TEST:
100 things I hate about my life now.
I want you to take this small test first, before we engage in the 20 days of wonder. I want you to write :100 things I hate about my life now. In order to write this one, I will ask you to remember every fact which makes you feel bad about your life now. Things which you want and cant get; reasons you keep telling yourself why things will never be the way you want; people who annoy you; life circumstances which cause you discomfort; things which you find yourself remembering over and over
20 DAYS O F WONDER 2010(C) HAPPY WOMAN COACHING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. / www.happywomancoaching.com
,though they might have happened in the past long ago, and yet you insist on making them so alive in your mind. Write it all down, dont leave anything. Keep complaining until there is no more to complain about!
How did you feel after finishing? You might have felt somehow good at first, having had the opportunity to express yourself, and complain. It feels good doesnt it, you think? But how are you going to feel if I asked you to read this list for 20 days? Imagine, everyday, you are forced to remember what is missing, what makes you angry, what irritates you Where will your focus go? What will you see throughout the day? Nothing but the things you hate, and have complained about, because repetition makes you keep remembering them. And so it will become your habit to pick out the negative things in your life. Your list will be perfect proof that your life is really awful .No one can argue with that. Now look at your 100 list again, and determine which facts you carry with you every day, and which ones you find yourself thinking of suddenly which are triggered by your surroundings .It might be certain objects , it might be certain people, or perhaps certain words. Do not worry if you realize that they are many, but what you need to understand is that you are programmed to feel discomfort whenever you face these triggers. No one can hurt you twice. Only if you allow them to, and only if you decide to keep remembering. The sad part is that if it is you who carries this load of hurt , and you insist of making it alive everyday . Then it is no ones fault . It is mainly your problem, and you are the only one who is responsible for it, and you are the only one who can change it. If you can change anything in your life which you wish to change, then terrific! Just go ahead and do it. But if you cannot , then you can do one
20 DAYS O F WONDER 2010(C) HAPPY WOMAN COACHING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. / www.happywomancoaching.com
thing. You can change the way you think about it. Let me give you an example: I have an outrageous neighbor. She shouts and screams and beats her kids every day. She even shouts at her husband, and this has been giving me feelings of anger, and daily discomfort in my life, because it is like a loud radio which can never be turned off. I realized that I cannot do anything to change the situation, I cannot change her,( because she wishes not to change, believe me, I have tried !) and I cannot go live in another house. Yet what I have discovered I can do is the following: put the focus on me, instead of her . If I keep thinking every time what a terrible mother and wife she is, and how my heart aches for those poor children, I will keep suffering, and feeling sad, and this might affect my own family. Once I have decided that every time I will be hearing her screaming, I will think of me, my being a loving caring understanding , patient mother, and thank God for being this way, her negative energy no longer affected me, and I was able to keep the smile on my face. Perhaps my being the way I am might motivate her to change ! who knows. So if I had written as number one on my 100 list: My cruel neighbor who spreads negative energy. , I can, if I want to convert it into something positive and motivational ,I can write instead: My tender heart towards my husband and my kids. She will no longer exist for me! Because I chose to put the focus on me. This is the main idea of this workbook. To be able to find something positive under any circumstance, and to be able to convert bad annoying thoughts into good, happy ones. I will give you one more example on how to change your thoughts about a situation which cannot really be changed. My dear grandmother passed away several years ago, and every time I used to remember her, I used to feel an ache in my heart because we shared a rare spiritual connection .she passed away shortly after my wedding. I wanted her to see my boys, to come visit me at our home, I wanted her to be a part of our life, like how
20 DAYS O F WONDER 2010(C) HAPPY WOMAN COACHING. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. / www.happywomancoaching.com
she always was. What I discovered I was doing to myself was focus on the missing part. She is dead, and I cannot change that. If I want to continue to feel bad, I would have to keep thinking of her not being here anymore, her decayed body. What I realized I could do, instead of feeling the longing and ache ,is to remember all the good things she taught me, her stories, her wisdom, her love for life. I had omitted the part which I can do nothing about, which is her passing away, and kept the part which will always give me happiness and hope and guidance in my life. And now, I want you to convert your list of 100 things I hate about my life, into goodness and positivity . I will be guiding you step by step to include every tiny thing which you might think is not worth writing about, but as we move on, you will realize that sometimes it is those small unimportant things which actually play a major role in feeling the happiness in your life.
From 100 to 50 from 50 to 20 or 10 things I hate about my life now
Omit the entries which were merely a repetition from your 100 things I hate about my life now. Omit the ones which have to do with the past, things which happened more than 6 months ago. Omit the ones which you can change by means of taking action . What remains? Your life is not as bad as you thought it was , eh?!

Day 10: 100 things I imagine myself doing if I had magic powers !
Think of all the loved ones you know who need magic to change certain life situations. Think about what you would like to change about the world, like poverty, deceases.. What about things for yourself? Think of what you hate, and replace it with things that you love . e.g. if you hate cold weather, but love the view of snow, you could make snow warm and cozy! Would you like to have your own island? You could imagine yourself flying to it whenever you want. It might be a good idea to establish your own school for your kids to go to! And include anything which you believe a perfect school should have. You could imagine that you put a spell on your kids to sleep early,and never wake you up at night , and then wake up late the next morning! Maybe you are enjoying your time at a certain situation, and you never want it to end, so you stop time, and stay there for as long as you wish! What if you could make someone see things from your own point of view, and they start to give you exactly what you want, without even having to ask?! Imagine never having to go to any store to get anything, you all need is a finger gesture, and everything you run out of comes to you that same moment!

What about the times when you really were afraid of doing something, but that did not stop you from doing it?
Anything youve been through which left you feeling stronger, braver, no matter how small the incident was. Any negative thought which used to have control over you, and in the end you found a way to control it by finding positive aspects about it. Have you ever found yourself doing something which you would never do on your own, but you were trying to help someone and you suddenly found yourself doing that very thing?

Day 14:
100 questions Im curious about and need an answer for.
Think of when you were a child . what where your questions about the world? It could be things you just imagine happening, and the possibility of such a thing actually happening. Look around you, do you take things for granted? Use your imagination, what could happen if something that was always there suddenly disappeared? Talk to a child, to get inspired, children have the torch of curiosity burning so strong, it will remind you to see life with different eyes. Go back to your old school books, notebooks, if you still got them, you sure will find things which would be interesting to go back and remember things you always wanted to understand better. What about a scientific experiment which you could do by yourself? Have you ever wondered how someone will react to a certain unexpected question or behavior? It could be how certain things are made, even as adults, we do not know everything, and it would be interesting to get to know that. Perhaps you find yourself in an place , where ten or twenty years ago, you would never have thought it would be possible, ask yourself questions about how did you get here? Follow the track of incidents in your life!

Day 15: 100 Gifts I would like to give to myself if I become a millionaire !
Think of some really expensive things which you wish you could afford to have, but you dont. Did you ever wish to travel somewhere far? How about the gift of being able to give to others? What kind of house would you like to live in?
Any childhood dreams which you could only imagine doing ? now would be the time! Anything which would give you a feeling of happiness and joy, it might be unimportant to others, but it would be only very important to you. Perhaps build an entertainment facility , like Michael Jackson did with his neverland? Would you get some professional help to make something serious out of a plain hobby? What would you like to change about yourself, your life?

Day 16: 100 Things to love about the house I live in.
Compare your house with other peoples homes that youve been to, what are its best qualities? What aspects are available in your house that you always wished to have in a home? If its small, or if its a big house, what privilege does that give you? Does it have a garden? What lovely things you are able to do in your garden? Is it a block in a building? What beautiful view can you see from up there? What about the neighborhood? What is it close to that gives you a privilege? Is there a particular room which gives you comfort, a feeling of coziness? What items have you placed in your house which makes it your heaven? What other people keep telling you about your house? And how they wish they had what you have?

Day 21: 50 Things I love about being an adult!
All you have to do to write this one is to remember your childhood, and notice some of the things you can do today as you wish ! I had to remember my own childhood, and all the things I were not allowed to do, and remember some of the things I enjoy in life now, to write this one. I could not think of my kids.
