Happy Life Studios Podcast

Sometimes it seems like everyone knows it's Spring except for Mother Nature. Life can be like that too. In fact, it's been a cold hard and long season in the world this last year and just like the winter, we're just ready for it to be done. The good news is Spring IS here despite what the weather tries to suggest. If we can stop focusing on the winter like Eeyore but instead believe that Spring is on its way, we will invent a new and better normal even. So be Happy, because Happy is what turns our Winter into Spring.

"Do you even know HOW to rest???" What a great question, and I'm happy someone asked me that. In fact, it's a great question that we should all ask ourselves. Especially if we want to live a Happy Life, because rest is what allows our spirits to catch up to our bodies, and lack of it is what robs our bodies of Happy.

For Black History Month we thought we'd highlight someone who isn't famous. In fact, he's quite the opposite of famous. No...not infamous, more like invisible. So we decided it was time to put this man's name in neon. He represents so many. A powerful and eye opening story of someone who was quite literally alone, but not anymore. Happy Life Studios is going to put not only Leon's name in lights but also Eric, who is very much Leon's opposite.Contact usEmail; Podcast@HappyLife.StudioVoicemail; (425) 200-HAYS (4297)Webpage; www.HappyLife.lol Facebook; www.Facebook.com/HappyLifeStudios Instagram; www.Instagram.com/HappyLife_Studios Twitter; www.Twitter.com/HappyLifStudios YouTube; www.YouTube.com/StevoHaysIf you would like to help us spread the HappyPayPal: www.PayPal.me/StevoHaysCash App: $HappyLifeStudiosZelle: StevoHays@gmail.comCheck: Payable to Hays Ministries or Steve Hays and send to PO Box 102 Maple Valley, WA 98038

Your circumstances may be difficult and you probably didn't ask for them to look the way they do. There may be a lot of things in your life that you have no control over, but one thing's for sure...YOU HAVE A CHOICE! You have a choice about what kinds of emotions you want to sit in and what kinds of thoughts you want to dwell in.In this episode, Nena shares how a country song held the answer to some major anxiety she was going through, and I talk about a movie that did the exactly same thing for me, because sometimes it's the small things in life that carry the biggest punch. Especially when you're watching and listening with the right ONE.LIFE'S AN ADVENTURE LET IT BE! Baby just let it be! (Which reminds me...the song we use in this episode is "Meant To Be" by Bebe Rexha & Florida Georgia Line. We don't own any rights).So watch, enjoy and bring a friend along.

We talk about it, sing about it, watch movies about it...all Holiday Season long. The problem is, once Christmas is over, we stop talking about it. This is why we just can't seem to make Christmas last all the year through. Imagine though if we did. If we could continue the peace on earth, if we could give goodwill to all men...all year round. Now THAT's the way to live a Happy Life! The good news is, it's not as difficult as you might think. Listen and see how easy it is to keep Christmas all year long.The songs we use in this episode are "Like It's Christmas" by the Jonas Brothers, "Christmas Is for Miracles" by The New England Children's Chorus & Orchestra, "May Every Day Be Christmas" by Louis Jordan and "Christmas the Whole Year Round" by Sabrina Carpenter.

Have you ever felt like an ugly Christmas sweater? Whether we're talking about sweaters or not, can we even put the words "ugly" and "Christmas" together?!? Isn't Christmas supposed to be warm and cozy? The truth is, there are parts of Christmas that can look pretty ugly, even for the very first one.The songs we use in this episode are "Cry" by Michael Jackson, "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm" by Kay Starr - remixed by STUHR and recorded on the album "Christmas Remixed - Holiday Classics Re-Grooved" and "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" by Darren Motamedy We don't own the rights to any.I'd also like to give a shout out to James Kocian, for the use of "More Beautiful".

The answer is a good one and pretty cool, even coming from a Studio with Happy in it.The songs we use in this episode are "We Wish You A Merry Christmas" by The Muppets, two renditions of "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" by Darren Motamedy and David Jeremiah and "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" by Pentatonix.

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree, how flammable are your branches? What do you do when someone burns down your Christmas Tree?!? Or when you're wanting to buy presents and your gold turns to pennies??? That's what Grinch's do and Christmas has a lot of them, but that doesn't have to ruin our Christmas Season...unless we want it to. The songs we use in this episode are "O Christmas Tree" by Elmer Fudd from The Looney Tunes Kwazy Christmas, "O Christmas Tree" by Gary Verrill, "Opening" from Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas original TV Soundtrack as well as several clips from the movie "Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)".

Our lawns and our gardens have both seeds and weeds. Their health will all depend on which we feed. The same is true of us. In our heads and our hearts there are seeds as well as weeds. When we feed one we starve the other and vice versa. Feed the seeds of hope, peace, unity and love and you'll end up starving the weeds of anxiety, anger, loneliness and fear. So when you're struggling with the weeds of life, simply find the opposite seed and feed that instead. Water the seeds, not the weeds and you won't be stuck living an anxious, sad or angry life, which is why Nena and I started this PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS podcast. We will continue to give practical, simple tools in each episode to help you develop a lush, productive, garden life.So come join us and bring a friend along.

Happy Life Thanksgiving! Since Thanksgiving is going to be very unusual and maybe even scary for many this year, I thought I'd put out a bonus podcast to pour some courage and hope into your Thanksgiving, because you're worth it. I mean, just because Thanksgiving is going to be different this year doesn't mean it can't be FULL of THANKS. The songs we use in this episode are "Thanksgiving Song" by Mary Chapin Carpenter and "I've Got Plenty To Be Thankful For" by Bing Crosby from the movie Holiday Inn.
