So instead of saying yes to worry and stress, why not choose to say a big 'NO' by applying these simple tips below.

Tune out the Negative.

Don't listen to bad news either on the radio, television or in the conversations of others. Keep yourself positive by remaining in a "negative free zone".

Think of Everything Good.

Go on a rampage of appreciation. Begin to notice everything good in your life and all the beauty that surrounds you. Keep noticing and appreciating everything no matter how seemingly simple-the sun shining, the flowers blooming, your favorite piece of clothing. As your attention and mood shift to good things, so will your outcomes.

Shift your Energy.

Use any technique that moves you from feeling negative to feeling positive such as meditation, uplifting music, candles, hot bath, sitting quietly, talking with friends or helping others. Your goal is to feel better by improving your mood. Even a small incremental move forward is a huge step.

Regain Trust.

Remind yourself that you create your own reality and are not governed by anything but your thoughts. Think about other times when you were uncertain or scared but things managed to work out. Remind yourself that things will work out again and trust that it will happen.

Take extra good care of yourself.

Practice extreme self-care. Try eating better, sleeping more, and exercising. Spend a day doing something you absolutely enjoy. Laugh!

Focus on what You Want.

Instead of thinking about everything that you don't want, focus your intention on what you do want. Hint-if you are worrying you are focused on what you don't want regardless of the words you are thinking or saying.

Make a habit of practicing each of these tips daily, and suddenly you'll find that your circumstances will improve.
