Notes of a Paranoid Schizophrenic

Recently I was watching an excellent PBS program, featuring Deepack Chopra.  He stated the 10 keys of happiness, and I scrambled for pen and paper so as to write them down.  Luckily, I have one of those PVR’s that you can start and stop as much as you want, so I was able to get them all.  Here they are for all to see:

1. Listen to your body

2. Live in the present moment

3. Embrace Silence (meditation, yoga, being in the moment, etc)

4. Relinquish your need for external approval (be immune to criticism and flattery)

5. Let go of grievances and anger

6. Have a total knowledge of yourself (”know thyself”)

7. Don’t judge others or yourself

8. Eliminate toxins from your body and your life

9. Replace fear-based thinking with joy-based thinking

10. Cultivate witnessing awareness
