"TIS THE SEASON"

As we enter the dark, and often, as here, cold months of winter,
all too many people can become depressed, suffering from what the
doctors call "SAD" - "Seasonal Affective Disorder". The further
from the equator people live, the higher the incidences of SAD and
the worse the effects are we are told. We are also told that this
is a "disease" of the brain due to such causes as "melatonin
deficiency", due to the long, dark nights as well as many other
reasons.

As is often the case, what doctors do not know is that the Mind has
total dominion over the organic brain and also therefore our moods
as well as our state of health, aging and every other aspect of
physical existence.

If we have "sunny thoughts", we will feel happy. If we have dark
thoughts people will feel "sad" or depressed.

So if you feel "down" at this time of the year, or wish to feel
permanently happy, then make the effort to think happy, sunny
thoughts often, by remembering happy events as if you are there
now, and above all knowing, beyond any doubt, that your natural
state of Being is happiness, joy and peace, and by knowing only
those things they can only be your experience. 

Doctors may advise seeking a powerful light source for "SAD", or
sitting in front of the window for 30 minutes, but again these are
all physical actions. There is only one fundamental Universal
Principle above all others - Mind. So instead of sitting in front
of a window or sitting in a very bright room, imagine and visualise
yourself being outside on the brightest and sunniest summers day,
and this alone will invoke a much more powerful and enduring effect.

Whenever you feel "sad" for any reason, use the power of your Mind
to become happy again, knowing above all else that as aspects and
expressions of the ultimate Source of Light, we have the power
within us to realise anything at all, and above all that we
influence our external reality including our health and the way we
feel - not the other way around.
