Feeling crappy?
I'm a total junkie when it comes to motivational posters, super girlie when it comes to quotes, large appreciator of fun forwarded emails and the biggest believer in that it's the smallest things in life which make you happiest.
Now that you know this about me, I'm ready to reveal my secrets! Don't tell anyone :) , but this is what I call my Magic Etiquette/ my Happiness Project/ the Tanya Protocol on how I like to live my life...
- Eat like you want to live for ever, live like there's no tomorrow
- Drink water from a wine glass
- Always have a mopped floor and vacuumed rugs
- Own at least one painting you know the whole history on
- Wake up being grateful
- Fall asleep being grateful
- Smile at a stranger for no reason (grin if they don't respond)
- Have a blender/juicer take up the most prominent part of your kitchen
- Take regular walks
- Re-read your favourite book of all time
- Admit that you've been wrong
- Cherish silence. Just listen. Shhh...
- Always have clean hands and nails
- Stretch often
- Think of those that matter to you and truly wish for them something you know they really want
- Be specific when giving a compliment
- Have a favourite snack recipe and always the ingredient for it in stock
- If looking at a photo that doesn't bring you joy and take you back to that moment, bin it
- Own pot plants, many of them

- Write a list of all that upset you, forgive them individually, burn the list
- Always keep a clean kitchen bench
- Call someone out of the blue
- Remember what it was like being 5 years old
- Look forward to your birthday and celebrate with joy
- Love the body you've been gifted, no other has the same
- Think of the real reason why you eat and love your food for that
- Go to the park and blow bubbles
- Be on time. No, be early
- Detox often- your wardrobe, your desk, your body
- Say hello to a tree. It also likes hugs
- Buy a product/ brand/ food you are not familiar with
- Love for no reason, carry on loving for many
- Meet a new person each week
- Show real interest in people
- Thank the bus driver
- Sing out loud
- Make a healthy treat and share it with a neighbour you've never met
- Take a different route to work
- Enrol in a random class
- Love herbal tea
- Remember to breathe
Think I'm a geek yet? Just wait till I rock up with the rest of the list, this is just what I have in memory right now. Do you have a Happiness Rule you go by? A favourite quote? I'd love to hear it in the comments...
