( First ring: Smile. Breathe. “Listen, listen. This wonderful sound brings me back to my true self.”
( Second ring: Smile. Breathe. ( Third ring: Be fully present as you
þ Emphasize more proximal, immediate satisfaction, mood, and feelings
þ Focus on present experience þ Don’t be senseless (invite sensual pleasure) þ Celebrate (even small) successes þ Include unexpected surprises, delights þ Change the focus/perspective/filters/frames þ Identify “priming” and “cascading” behaviors
