Hugs And More Hugs

Have YOU had your hugs today?

Scientific research has shown
that every human being needs:

• four hugs per day merely to survive
• eight hugs per day to maintain oneself at a strong emotional level
• twelve hugs per day to grow

Now that's a whole lotta hugs!

And I'm ready to bet my Daisy that you and I
aren't even getting the required number of hugs
to survive, let alone GROW.

So what can we do about it?

Because we should be getting our
Daily Dozen Hug Drug...

When you stop and think that hugs help
the body's immunity system, keep you
healthier, cure depression, reduce stress,
induce sleep, are invigorating and
rejuvenating...why would you go another
day without them?

If there's no way you can get them from
your partener, friends, or family, then
start giving them away yourself.
Once you give a hug, you get a hug.

Or you can always hug a tree.
And even hug yourself!

Hugs,
Mudd

Morning Pages

Hi!

Do you know Julia Cameron?

She's a talented novelist, playwright, songwriter and poet
whose bestselling works on the creative process have
touched people all over the world.

In The Artist's Way,
Julia introduces a daily practice that has changed
my life for the better: Morning Pages.

Now, you don't need to be a struggling artist to benefit
from this practice. Anyone can do it.

The Morning Pages are three pages of longhand writing.
You do them every morning, right after you wake up.
And don't worry, they are strickly stream-of-consciousness:
not meant to be art...or even writing, for that matter. You
simply let your hand move across the page, and you write
down whatever comes to mind.

I've found this practice to be very liberating. Whatever bothers
me or worries me or causes me to have fear, I can deal with all
of it in my Morning Pages.

It's a fantastic release for tension, anger, frustrations, petty
annoyances...all the crippling feelings that build up inside of you
and create anxiety. Once you spill them on your pages,
you feel relieved, exorcised.

So give it a try.
It's worth it!

And who knows...
It might stir the Artist in you,
the Inner Child who wants
to play.
