Please, take a look around; you can <a href="../feed">subscribe to my feed</a>, read <a href="../">recent posts</a>, or check out the <a href="../about/">about page</a> to learn more about me.</p> <p><strong>This blog serves three purposes:</strong></p> <p>1- To share with you the many tricks, tools and resources I’ve learned for fighting anxiety and depression, and to keep you on track with frequent, specific exercises.</p> <p>2- To share the things that have made me happy, and to provide a forum for you to share your joys.</p> <p>3- To keep myself on track! Staying happy is a lot of work, and I hope that this blog will remind me that I am accountable for my own well-being.</p> <p><strong>A word about “happy.” </strong></p> <p>I am not suggesting hedonism or focus on the ephemeral pleasures of life. I use ‘happy’ as <noindex><a href="http://www.choosetobehappy.com/">Foster and Hicks</a></noindex>, to mean feeling: content, capable and centered.</p> <p>I’ll also add, as the title of this blog suggests, that you can only be happy <em>now</em> (and now, and now). Thus, this blog will offer several exercises for focusing our attention on the present moment, narrowing our focus to broaden our lives.</p> <p>Thanks for reading. I look forward to your participation.</p> <p>In Joy,<br /> Maile</p> </div> </div> <p class="postmetadata"><span>Comments Off</span></p> <!-- You can start editing here. --> <div class="post-content"> <p> </p> </div> </div> <p align="center"></p> </div><!-- end id:content-main --> <div id="sidebar"> <ul> <li class="sidebox"> <div class="textwidget"> <a href="../feed"><img src="http://flickrhaiku.files.wordpress.com/2007/04/feed-icon-28x28.png" /> Subscribe!</a> </div> </li><li class="sidebox"><form method="get" id="searchform" action="http://mailemccarthy.com/" > <div><label class="hidden" for="s">Search for:</label> <input type="text" value="" name="s" id="s" /> <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" /> </div> </form></li> <li class="sidebox"> <h2>Top Posts</h2> <ul><li><a href='../2007/05/02/commute-better/'>7 Things You Can Do During Today's Commute to Improve Your Focus All Day Long</a></li><li><a href='../2007/05/10/5-ways-criminal-thinking-can-make-you-happier/'>5 Ways Criminal Thinking Can Make You Happier</a></li><li><a href='../2007/05/21/red/'>Red</a></li><li><a href='../2008/04/02/music-life/'>Music & Life</a></li></ul> </li><li class="sidebox"><h2>Archives</h2> <ul> <li><a href='../2008/04/' title='April 2008'>April 2008</a></li> <li><a href='../2008/01/' title='January 2008'>January 2008</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/12/' title='December 2007'>December 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/11/' title='November 2007'>November 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/09/' title='September 2007'>September 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/08/' title='August 2007'>August 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/07/' title='July 2007'>July 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/06/' title='June 2007'>June 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/05/' title='May 2007'>May 2007</a></li> <li><a href='../2007/04/' title='April 2007'>April 2007</a></li> </ul> </li></ul> </div><!-- end id:sidebar --> </div><!-- end id:content --> </div><!-- end id:container --> <div id="footer"> <p><noindex><a href='http://wordpress.com/' >Blog at WordPress.com</a></noindex>. | Theme: Mistylook by <noindex><a href="http://wpthemes.info/" >Sadish</a></noindex>.</p> <br class="clear" /> </div><!-- end id:footer --> <script type="text/javascript"> var wpcomPageTracker = _gat._getTracker("UA-52447-2"); wpcomPageTracker._setDomainName("none"); wpcomPageTracker._setAllowLinker(true); wpcomPageTracker._initData(); wpcomPageTracker._trackPageview(); </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../edge.quantserve.com/quant.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript">_qoptions = { labels:"adt.0,language.en" };_qacct="p-18-mFEk4J448M";quantserve();</script> <noscript><p><img src="http://pixel.quantserve.com/pixel/p-18-mFEk4J448M.gif" style="display: none" height="1" width="1" alt="" /></p></noscript> <script src="../../s.stats.wordpress.com/w.js@18" type="text/javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> st_go({'blog':'778178','v':'wpcom','user_id':'0','post':'60','subd':'flickrhaiku'}); ex_go({'crypt':'D6_257C_252CY1mqtiRa_253DV%26_257CQbTtZOw5UrDNB~-74_252F_252CVpJ8DhnBaMP~%5DdaS-_252CVfiejnz_HN_252F0C2847E6A4'}); addLoadEvent(function(){linktracker_init('778178',60);}); </script> <center> <a href="http://www.mp3sale.ru/artist.php?ms_artistid=213" target="_blank">No Sacrifice, No Victory</a>. <a href="http://www.fertilityclinicsdirectory.com" target="_blank">order Ativan</a>. <a href="http://hspeople.com/dating/Russia" target="_blank">russian dating tour</a> </center> </body> </html>
