First of all, we can cultivate positive emotions by remembering a time when we experience them, all right?So, I was just telling you when we were going through the emotions,times when I felt gratitude, for example, or times that I felt joy.And when we allow ourselves to go back to that time and really re-live it then we can re-experience those positive emotions as well.A second way we can cultivate positive emotions is by acting like we do when we feel them.So, William James says, that the sovereign path to cheerfulness is to act cheerfully.If you want to raise your mood, then act like you are feeling cheerful.And often times that actually does make us feel cheerful.It’s important to remember the importance of our body in feeling these emotions.So, if I just say, well, I’m going to try too be cheerful now.That doesn’t really work.Well, how do act when I’m feeling cheerful as I move my body around zenith has this emotional effect as well.A third way of cultivating positive emotions is by putting ourselves in situations where we’re more likely to feel them.So again, if you want to feel more cheerful,then staying inside by yourself in your room with the lights off is probably not going to be an effective way of doing that.But, if you go out in a situation where when you’re with your friends,or you’re in this particular context,you tend to feel cheerful, you’re more likely to feel it.And then finally, we can cultivate positive emotions by being more mindful of what we’re already feeling.So many times, we’re not even consciously aware of the emotions that we’re having.And if we just tune into them more,we can realize that we actually do feel gratitude, or serenity,or hope, and we can allow those feelings to magnify themselves inside of it.Inside of us.Now, it’s important not to try to force the feelings again.We can’t make ourselves feel a certain way.Like if you’re trying to grow flowers, you don’t want to pull the leaves and pull the bloom to try to blossom to try and open it up more.You’ve got to give it what it needs.Give it the nutrient, give it the water, give it the sunlight and that will allow the flower to bloom.
