Think about something good that happened to you recently. Something small, something significant, it doesn’t matter what. Can you remember exactly what occurred?
As the memory comes back to you, think about the nature of what you are actually remembering. Are you recalling the things that were said, and that you say to yourself about what happened? Or are you picturing it, and even visualising the concept of happiness? Or perhaps the memory brings up strong feelings that you can almost feel again right now in your body?
