The Magical Effects of Smiling (How Smiling Affects the Brain)
(Scroll down for Video)

Did you know that each time we smile a release of neuropeptides which work toward fighting off stress is activated?  Neuropeptides are very small molecules which allow our neurons to communicate.  They send messages to our bodies when we are excited, depressed, happy, sad, etc.
Our feel good chemicals, serotonin, dopamine and endorphins are released every time we smile.
When we smile, the serotonin which is released acts as an anti-depressant and endorphins act as natural pain relievers; our heart rate and blood pressure decreases and our bodies relax.

A wise saying states that smiling is contagious.  Research indicates that this statement is true.  The cingulate cortex region of our brains is responsible for our facial expressions.  Since it is an unconscious, automatic response area, research shows that when others smile at us our brains mimic their behavior.  In this way, smiling creates harmonious relationships and allows senders and receivers to release calming & natural feel-good chemicals in our brains; it also activates the reward centers.  Smiling makes us more attractive and as research indicates smiling also helps us live longer, happier and healthier lives.

Wishing you Wellness,
Dr. Joy Liani Hallman

Nothing Compares to You - Literally

Be sure to ask self-esteem related questions on my, YouTube Channel: Joy of Life TV (EmpressJoy11)

Peace & Blessings, (video below)

At any given time there are about 7 billion human beings on the planet. Because there are so many of us, it can sometimes feel as though we aren't special even though we truly are. All of us are unique; in fact, none of us have the same fingerprints. Everyone has a different way to express and/or share gifts/talents. However, when we become inundated with social comparisons, especially upward comparisons, we can become trapped into thinking that everyone else has it better. These conflicting comparisons may equate to, "I'm not good enough" and other self-esteem crushing thoughts which can lead to negative behaviors and feelings of shame and guilt or sadness.

With the prevalence of social media, self-esteem can be affected both positively and negatively as outlined through, social comparison theory which summarizes two comparison theories; upward and downward. Upward comparisons occur when comparing ourselves to those we believe have more or are making out better in life which may aid in lowering self-esteem. Downward comparisons happen when comparing ourselves to people whom we believe are not doing as well in hopes of feeling better and/or increasing self-esteem.
If we could all pause for a moment, take a deep breath, find one thing in our lives that is going well and focus on it - our attention would shift from what does not feel good to, what is actually going well. As research has taught us, energy flows where attention goes. Doing this will free up mental space to release us from the imprisonment of mental chatter about what may appear to not be going well, unrealistic expectations, scary deadlines and so forth. Likewise, in these moments, we may be reminded that things actually do work out well for us, "too." Using this approach invites clarity as a spring board to move us from the current position back to the journey we set out on initially which will take us closer to the attainment of goals.

What if things are actually working in your favor? What if you were actually moving closer to your goals right now and the current situation you may be "moving through" is temporary and is simply an appearance right now? In flying from Los Angeles to Philadelphia annually for about consecutive 18 years, I can attest that while most landings were smooth, others were bumpy. We flew over water for hours and many times the turbulence was frightening. The airplanes took off from a long stretch of runway and landed on them as well. Thankfully, there was never a time when pilots vocalized over the speaker that they were just going to give up and turn around because the trip was taking too long or land wasn't in sight. In other words, our goals may sometimes seem insurmountable, at times things may seem so bumpy that we may want to give up however, we will never know if we do not try. My mother taught me a valuable lesson. She said that when setting a goal, "If you look at the whole picture it can seem overwhelming and make you want to get in the bed and go to sleep." My mom further stated that if the goal is broken down into achievable steps and completed in small pieces at a time, it will be done before you know it.

Nothing and no one else is you. No one compares to the beautiful and unique soul that you are, literally. It's okay to be yourself, everyone else is taken. After all, when could there possibly be a better time to believe in yourself? ...the time is now, right now. Remember that you are enough. I believe in you, join me.

Warmly,
Dr. Joy Liani Hallman/Self-Esteem Expert

The Fuss About Fibroids < A Healing Remedy Which Worked For Us.

Peace & Love Beautiful People,

8/2/2020 UPDATE

..the blog below was written about fibroids in 2013; there are two updates.

1) I am happy to report that the fibroid did not return. 

2) Senator Kamala Harris has introduced a bill pertaining to uterine fibroids which you may read here:

https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2020/07/9940953/kamala-harris-yvette-clarke-uterine-fibroids-bill 

*********************The Fuss About Fibroids ************************

HAPPY 2013! Please consider this blog as a happy toast to your exuberant health in the New Year! After speaking with so many women who suffer from fibroids, I've decided to offer this blog in hopes of shedding light about a potential healing remedy which worked for me and a very close friend. Fibroids are referred to as non-cancerous tumors which may grow inside of a woman’s uterus, Western medicine offers no information regarding where they come from or how to cure them.


Disclaimer: As you well know, please do not substitute your physician’s advice for any information you read here. Follow your Doctor’s advice and find out if you have any food allergies prior to putting any of the home remedies listed here into action. We wish you the absolute best of health, in doing so, we assume no responsibility for any remedies you may try.


With that said, there have been many posts about operations women can undergo as well as surgical procedures we can have to manage not cure a fibroid condition. However, I have yet to discover any Western information which talks about the prevention of fibroids or non-invasive cures. For that matter, I’ve been advised that even if a woman experiences a procedure to rid fibroids, there is no guarantee that the tumors won’t return.

During an annual check-up, a Nurse Practitioner informed me that I had a fibroid. I was devastated, I knew of people who had them and had no idea what they really were or why all of a sudden one had planted itself in my uterus. She stated that as long as it didn’t bother me, I had nothing to worry about. Well the ‘not bothering me’ part didn’t even last two months. One day, I woke up with swollen glands and a slight nagging pain coming from the area where she had told me the fibroid was located. In the following days the pain worsened and then I begin to experience what I believed was the absolute worst that fibroids could bring. Oh, hell no I thought! So, being the scholarly Doctoral Student I am, I decided to conduct my own research in search of a cure. During this process, I interviewed loved ones and strangers and found that so many of us are suffering in silence with no real remedy at hand. Someone I know and love who is under the age of 25 has a physician who administered a shot which sent her body into early menopause in hopes of stopping the hundreds of fibroids in her uterus from continuing to grow. This was done only after the physician had lasered out over 100 fibroids from her uterus. Thankfully, the shot which must be administered every six months wears off because the first and only time she got the injection several clumps of her hair fell out.

As a student of Metaphysics, I pulled out one of my favorite books to discover what thoughts I could have been thinking which gave way to this dis-ease in my body. In the book entitled, “You Can Heal Your Life,” Author Louise L. Hay lists dis-eases along with the probable thoughts which cause them. For instance, (get ready for this) the book states that fibroids come from “a blow to the feminine ego.” …no, seriously. Well, that was all of the information I needed.

In my quest for a cure I recognized that the relationship I had been in was giving way to my feminine ego feeling bruised ~ no worries; I chose to think a new thought. I chose to fully forgive myself and totally change the nature of the relationship (He had to go). After reading about Eastern modalities, I confided in my Sorority Sister who told me that she, unlike the dozens upon dozens of women I had spoken with, had actually rid herself of fibroids by preparing and consuming a daily concoction for a few months. Upon receiving the diagnosis, she got an ultrasound where she could see the tumors in her uterus. After taking the remedy for about 2 -3 months she got another ultrasound and the tumors were gone, that was about 2 years ago. FREE AT LAST!!! I believed …I'm sure that you've heard the Proverb, “As a woman thinketh, so is she!” Who would have thought that I could have been holding any negative thoughts I had been experiencing in my womb? I meditate upon rising anyway so I chose to get frequent acupuncture and take the designated herbs as well as step up my affirmations, take vitamins regularly, and heal myself. After having suffered with this condition for about 2 months, I tweaked the recipe I was given and followed it every morning for about 2 months straight. I am super excited to tell you that my swollen abdomen went back to its regular size, and I feel back to normal. I haven’t taken the remedy in about 2 months and I feel fine. However, I have decided to add it back to my regimen at least 3 times per week beginning tomorrow for prevention and overall maintenance of good health. Therefore, I decided to let you all know what worked for us in hopes that it may work for you.

So, what did she say? What did we do? The recipe is below. I added something which the Greek Philosopher, Aristotle referred to as the greatest cure-all known to man ~ a teaspoon of apple-cider vinegar and a spoonful of honey.








Original Recipe:

Put the following ingredients in a glass:

1 cup of Beet Juice ($7.99 at Whole Foods, last about 3 days.)
¼ cup Organic Aloe Vera Juice ($9.00 at Whole Foods – last for weeks.)
1 – 2 tablespoons of Unsulphered Blackstrap Molasses (About $8.00 – last for weeks.)
One lemon
Enough Water to fill the Glass ~ drink immediately.


My Recipe:

(Upon waking – take 1-2 capfuls of Apple-Cider Vinegar & follow it with a healthy spoonful of Honey).

Put the following items in a blender:

5 – 6 sliced beets and about ¼ can of beet juice (Sliced canned beets at .99 cent store which lasts 2 – 3 days.)
3 tablespoon of Unsulphered Blackstrap Molasses.
1 whole capful of Aloe Vera Juice.
¾ glass of water (Preferably alkaline, spring, or filtered.)
Blend ingredients and drink immediately.

People have asked about the taste... I simply ask, what's more important? Is it the taste which you will experience for about 15 seconds per day or the possibility of experiencing vibrant health? ~ I invite you to ask yourself. ...if you do decide to try it, please let me know if it works for you!

Wishing You Radiant Health & An Abundance of Every Good Thing!

We May Not Know "How" but We Know "That"...

Your situations and circumstances do not determine who you are and who you are becoming. Affirm these scriptural excerpts to keep you flying high above the turbulence this month. Enjoy!

We May Not Know “How” but We Know “That”…

Here are a few biblical scriptural references to keep you going this month.


I don’t know how…but I do know, ‘that’…
I know that it will all be worked out somehow, someway

I know that if I think it to ‘death’ long enough, I’ll make myself physically and emotionally sick

I know that God promised me that I would reap in due season if I fainted not

I know that Jesus said that life and death are in the power of the tongue; therefore I choose life and choose it more abundantly

I know that weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning

I know that if God is for me, who can be against me? I know that God makes my feet like hind’s feet, lest I dash them upon a stone

I know that this problem is not even a problem in some other dimension

I know that all time is simultaneous so it IS worked out and I claim the victory of it now…when? NOW!!!

I know that faith without works is dead so therefore I take divinely inspired action in the direction of my goals. I know that – this too, shall pass

I know that with the love of God & my mother, all things are possible

I know that God said if I cast my cares on Spirit ALL things would be taken care of and added unto me. (Keyword – ALL – it doesn’t say some or most). I know that the peace of God which passeth all understanding rules my heart and my mind. I know that I was created in the image and the likeness of the Most High and God makes no mistakes, therefore, I must be here on purpose and with a purpose

I know that I am the righteousness of God and no matter what it looks like, Jesus said even greater works than the ones he did, I too shall do

I know that – as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord

SO CHILL!!! STAND STILL & KNOW!

With each update we leave you with a passage hoping to impart words of wisdom. With this upload we'd like to just say:

You are the answers that you seek. Albert Einstein said, "You can not solve a problem with the same mind that created it." When situations and circumstances seem to get the best of us, I belive the best thing we can do is - STOP STRUGGLING WITH THE CONFLICT.

Struggling to do this or do that, to add it all up or figure it out...or 'what if' it to death! Lol! How is not our business, how is God's business.

Something to ponder:

I don't know how...but I do know, 'that.' I know that it will all be worked out some how, some way, eventually. I know that if I think it to 'death' long enough, I'll make myself physically and emotionally sick. I know that God promised me that I would reap in due season if I fainted not. I know that Jesus said life and death are in the power of the tongue therefore I choose life and choose it more abundantly. I know that weaping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning. I know that if God is for me, who can be against me? I know that God makes my feet like hind's feet, lest I dash them upon a stone. I know that this problem is not even a problem in some other dimension. I know that all time is simultaneous so it IS worked out and I claim the victory of it now..when? NOW!!! I know that faith without works is dead so therefore I take divinely inspired action in the direction of my goals. I know that - this too shall pass. I know that with the blessings of God & Mother, all things are possible. I know that God said if I cast my cares on Spirit ALL things would be taken care of and added unto me. (keyword - ALL - it doesn't say some or most). I know that the peace of God which passeth all understanding rules my heart and my mind. I know that I was created in the image and the likeness of the Most High and God makes no mistakes therefore I must be here on purpose and with a purpose.

Allowing Is the Absence of Resistance.

~~~~Joy Liani Hallman - C.E.O. & Host of The Joy of Life TV~~~~



The Joy of Life TV Interviews Triple Threat Singer/Song-Writer, Actress, Choreographer/Dancer - NISA WARD.


Nisa Ward's interview is followed by our inspirational message, which is:

ALLOWING IS THE ABSENCE OF RESISTANCE.

Many times we are scared to death that we are going to be separated from something or someone or even perhaps that we are not enough. Whatever the story is it’s all in our heads. Half of the time nothing is really happening at all but the ego will present a thought about some form of separation, we’ll entertain it and then those thoughts invite like thoughts and we accept them too until we spin in a downward spiral. We then become afraid that this is happening and that is happening or this is going to happen if that doesn’t happen… Actually, nothing’s really happening at all. The root cause of the entire emotionally toxic drama is a fear of separation. F.E.A.R. is false evidence appearing real and separation is a lie, it’s an illusion.

Remember a time when you were extremely worried about an event and then that “today” presented itself. During the course of that “Today” which is the moment you were worried about the day before, the situation was worked out some how, some way and often times, almost as if by magic. We are provided with what we need as we need it. An old Proverb says, ‘When the student is really ready, the Teacher will appear.” Louise L. Hay states, “When it is time for a new job, the opportunity presents itself easily.”

Resistance is defined as: the opposition offered by one thing, force, etc., to another; the act or power of resisting, opposing, or withstanding.
Allowing is defined as: to admit; acknowledge; to let have; give as one's share; grant as one's right; to consider.

May we consider for a moment that sometimes the very thing with which we have the most resistance is where the greatest lessons are? It is in taking a stand and having the courage to go through the rough currents that we get a breakthrough. By definition, a breakthrough is any significant or sudden advance, development, achievement, or increase, as in scientific knowledge or diplomacy that removes a barrier to progress.

…removes a barrier to progress. So, when there are road blocks, barriers and situations perceived as difficult there are opportunities to learn or as Rev. Michael Bernard Beckwith would say – “There are opportunities to develop, grow and unfold and become more and more of your true self.”

Whatever we resist, persists. Remember, “If the problems or circumstances were less difficult, there would be no need to have someone with your ability to solve them.” – Patricia Russell-McCloud.

So go ahead and allow ~ allowance is the absence of resistance.

DON’T PRAY& WORRY, JUST LEAVE IT THERE!

Peace & Love Beautiful People!

Wishing you all wellness, peace and joy as you embark upon a new season, autumn. Usually, I write my own thoughts but this week I am focused on serving as a gentle reminder that God is in control and there is no need to pray and worry. As Reverend Cheryl Ward says, "Either God is or God ain't!" One translation of that is: Since God IS, why worry? As J. Moss sings, “God who holds the future, also rules this land and responsible for each breath we take, just pray and then leave it there.”

As we invite all of the blessings of our autumn season into our lives, I am guided to simply share the lyrics of an AMAZING song that I found myself in deep meditation with today. The song is entitled, “Don’t Pray & Worry by Gospel Singer, J. Moss. I had the pleasure of dancing for J. Moss & Ki Ki Sheard for B.E.T.’s 2008 ‘Celebration of Gospel’ under the Choreography & Artistic Direction of Brandon Lee Anderson. I am familiar with the song and play it often but it never hit me like this. I figured, since it inspired me to new heights today, I would share it with all of you.

Below, please find the song lyrics to J. Moss’s “Don’t Pray & Worry.” This c.d. was released in 2004 and can be found in stores everywhere and online. The c.d. is entitled, “The J. Moss Project.” (F.Y.I., J. Moss has a new c.d. out in stores entitled, “Just James”.) Just below the lyrics is a website where you can hear the song free, it takes a little while to load.

Lyrics to Don’t Pray & Worry :
[J moss laughing] Whew, come on let's keep it going

He knows all that's before you
He will never neglect His child
Nor will ignore tears in your eyes
Lay your cares to rest

[Chorus:]
The righteous won't be forsaken
Just hold to your faith
And His word will be manifested
Be steadfast and don't fear
Don't pray and worry

Why is it that we will spend time
going to church but don't understand why
Why we must pray
And then belive
Things that we pray for will soon be received

The prayers of the righteous availeth much
Be not weary in well doing
God of Heaven can do anything
Lay your cares to rest
For the righteous

[Chorus]

He who holds the future
Also rules this land
And responsible for each breath we take
Just pray and then leave it there
Pray and then leave it there

Maybe you've lost all hope
And can't see past tomorrow
Speak His word into your life
And stand on His promise to you

[Chorus x2]

So, as the song lyrics suggest, I invite you to “Just hold to your faith and God’s words will be manifested, be steadfast and don’t fear, don’t pray then worry.”

Free Website where you can hear J. Moss’s, “Don’t Pray & Worry.” (simply copy and past it in another browser after you scroll down and watch Kerri-Anne’s video.)

Remember, you are not alone. Reverend Creflo Dollar translated Hebrews 13:5 this way: “God said, I will not, I will not, I will not, to any degree, for any reason, leave you or forsake you, I will not take my hands off of you.” So, I encourage you to stand on those words. God is not a man that God would lie nor can God’s words come back void. I encourage you to trust the infallible words of God and as brilliant Author & Speaker John Randolph Price says, “Take Your Stand and Prove God Now!”

Wishing you a brilliant and brand new beginning in this fall season, may you fall in love with life in a new and joyful way. Don’t forget to cast your cares. 

With Love & Gratitude,
Joy Liani Hallman

Transmuting Negative Self-Talk Into Joyful Affirmations.

(Includes excerpts from the 1st edition of my book, “Your Official Invitation to the Joy of Life, Details Inside…”)

Lisa paid Faye a compliment, Faye’s first thought was …what did she mean by that? Is she really insulting me? I knew I looked fat in this dress! More often than not, we have a tape of negative self-talk playing in our minds. What if other people spoke to us in the manner with which we speak to ourselves? What if a stranger on the street approached you and said, “Gee, you sure are having a bad hair day!” Picture if the Waiter at the restaurant in which you were a patron said that he refused to serve your food because you were a pig and you ate like a cow at breakfast yesterday. Imagine if the local Bank Teller told you that because you were over weight you were incapable of finding love? When viewed this way, these statements seem outlandish and preposterous and indeed they are. However, these statements do not account for one third of the awful self-talk we partake in daily.

What about all of the wonderful, amazing and marvelous things concerning self that we rarely honor? Instead of consistently sulking about how deficient we are / have been in some areas, we can choose to focus on how extremely effective we are in others. Instead of spreading ourselves thin to meet several obligations, we can choose to honor ourselves enough to take on only those tasks that we can meet with joy and in a timely manner. Doing so will allow us to concentrate on the obligations at hand which will allow us to be in the present moment. I once read in a book entitled, “Ask Your Angels” by Daniel, Wyllie & Ramer that “God does not want us to be perfect. God wants us to be present.”

We complain about trivial marks or negative perceptions about our beautiful fully functioning bodies when we can give thanks that our bodies work without the assistance of Doctors, Nurses and machines. Perhaps your body works because of the assistance of Doctors, Nurses and or machines, how about giving praise for that? An attitude of gratitude is sure to bring our desires closer to us just as sure as the energy of desperation and explosiveness is sure to push them away with the same accuracy. Each and every day we have been afforded with gifts accessible only in the present moment.

We can choose to transmute negative self-talk by replacing the harsh mental conversations with daily mantras and affirmations. Focusing on the areas of our lives in which we are efficient will allow us to pin-point our strengths. I encourage you to write them down and repeat them to yourself aloud several times a day, giving particular focus in the morning and at night. Our minds believe what they’ve been fed in consistent repetition. Remind yourself that you are not the General Manager of the Universe, therefore you do not have to keep score of everything you “didn’t do right” by playing that useless tape whenever it’s time to do something new. Instead, we can choose to release thoughts which no longer serve us.

I encourage you to step into the illuminous loving light of your consciousness. Create your amazing affirmations and mantras to help you beautify your Purposeful and Powerful Life. If anyone can do it, you can do it! Go For the Gold Baby!!! Separation is an illusion. You are connected to the Great I AM Presence, therefore, you are in the field of Infinite Possibilities! Did I mention that you are beautiful? Just about anything you set your mind to, you can do. …you’ve already been told that anyone whose got to where he/she is started from where he/she was. You’ve given it enough thought; it’s okay to take steps toward your goals. Transmute the negative into positive. Add some joy to your life by beginning today.

With Love & Gratitude,
Joy Liani Hallman
