How to Change Your Life From Sadness to Happiness
This post answers questions from a reader named, Georgie, who says her life has been difficult and sad for as long as she can remember. In recent years she’s become sick with various immune diseases.
The Council says when you have a lot of trauma in your life, if you don’t deal with it, keep the grief inside yourself, and you focus on the grief and the sadness, it will eventually start to affect your body.
Georgie says because of ill-health she lost her business, her side job, her house, and her cat, and she’s dependent on her partner of 7 months. The Council says Georgie has called for these experiences to learn from them. And if you haven’t learned from them, you’ll have to experience it again in this lifetime or future lifetimes.
You’re spirit is ready to experience a different kind of life, and yet you’re still focusing on these sad experiences which attract to you more of the same. Remember the good times. Change the focus of your attention and appreciate what you have. Feel gratitude for times when things were good. When you do this because you’re ready to start again, your lessons will be different from what they were in the past.
Georgie says her partner is unable to handle all her health problems. She feels abandoned again and wants to break this cycle, but she feels helpless and depressed. The Council says believing these thoughts and not doing the inner work to change her life, she’ll keep creating the same depressing experiences.
Georgie says her partner is her fiance, but now he only wants to be friends until he’s in a better place. The Council advises Georgie to consider that her partner also has issues that he’s working on and he’ll do what he must to work on them. And at the same time, you should be working on your issues so that a change can take place.
Georgie says she’s still able to live with her partner, but she wants to be with him romantically rather than friends for now. The Council say while being just friends isn’t what you want right now, aren’t you a bit grateful that you’re not being thrown out with nowhere to go. Things can change in a friendship and The Council suggest Georgie focus on how wonderful it is that her partner is allowing her to stay where she is.
Georgie asks if she and her partner are destined to be together? The Council says you and your partner make this destiny. In spirit it was decided you would like to be together. Now can you both do the work necessary to create a life where you can be happily together? You can be together, but there must be changes in your lives to see it the way you desire it to be.
Georgie asks if good health will ever return to her. The Council says all her health problems will change when Georgie begins to feel happiness from memories or from something that happens, even if it’s just one thought each day of something she’s able to appreciate. Her vibration will begin to improve and she’ll begin to attract more appreciative thoughts. Your body will improve as your vibration improves and you start to feel appreciation. It’s your decision. No one else can create for you.
When you’re depressed and as you listen to the recording you may feel it’s too difficult to change the pattern of your thoughts to happier ones. You may not feel good about staying in the house with your partner, but only as a friend. This will leave you in a stagnant, going nowhere energy. You need discipline, and The Council sees it is possible for you to do this. The littlest positive changes will begin to happen and as you acknowledge them, there will be more positive changes.
Georgie asks The Council if she’ll ever feel strong, love herself, and feel loved by someone else? The Council says when Georgie returns to the spirit world after this lifetime she’ll feel all this love. There is nothing but love in spirit. But Georgie’s job is to bring the love from spirit into the life she’s creating now. By forcing yourself to hold onto a more positive thought for 3 seconds, if that’s all you can do at first, you will begin to change your negative beliefs. This is your job. This is why you came into this lifetime. You came to experience the traumas you’ve gone through, live through them, see what you allowed these traumas to do to you, and now you have the chance to change your life and make it the way you want it to be.
Georgie asks The Council if she’ll be financially stable and have work that she loves, or even work that she likes? The Council says, as you slowly begin to feel better, you’ll hear about ways to do new things that you enjoy to bring financial stability into your life. It’s all there for you, but it begins with your thoughts and the inner work. Don’t worry about the future. Be in your present moment and insist that you think good thoughts.
The Council hopes their guidance helps Georgie move along her path. By this time next year there should be many positive changes. If you go in the direction your spirit planned, moving forward with the thoughts about how you can bring love into your life, your life has to change.
In their Closing The Council asks us to feel the joy of the Christmas spirit, and be grateful for the help they offer. Listen to the entire 13-minute audio recording with The Council (below) to hear all their guidance for Georgie and the rest of us. And let us know what you feel about it.

Welcome
Bob & Cynthia
Welcome to Ask The Council, a blog where you can ask a group of loving and wise spirit guides a question and get an answer, for free. You can also contact us for a paid private phone session with The Council, and you can read the questions other readers have asked and the answers they’ve received. Other posts contain quotations from The Council that we hope you find inspiring, uplifting, and educational.
Ask The Council a Question
If there’s a question you’ve been thinking about and you’re curious how The Council might answer it, we encourage you to either use the blog’s Comments feature to ask your question, or contact us for a private phone session. You can click here to go to the ‘Let us know what you think about this post, or ask The Council a question’ section of this Welcome post and type your question there or you can type your question in the same section at the bottom of any post that inspires you to ask a question or leave a comment.
Since the blog is currently a project we do in our spare time it can take a while for us to do a session with The Council on a question and then publish a post on the session. Depending on the question and the session it can sometimes take weeks after a question is asked to publish a post with The Council’s answer. Please be patient.
The Council
Cynthia is able to communicate with a group of five non-physical spirit guides in a manner similar to the way Esther Hicks communicates with and speaks for the spirit guides, Abraham, and Jane Roberts communicated and spoke for the spirit guide, Seth. I (Bob) basically interview The Council as they speak through Cynthia during what we refer to as a session. Sessions generally last 5-15 minutes and are usually audio recorded. During the session Cynthia is aware of what The Council is saying and she also receives visual impressions and other types of telepathic communication from them.
The Council’s Basic Guidance
Since we began these sessions with The Council around 2009 they consistently emphasize a few basic ideas that we attempt to summarize here:
1) You are an eternal spiritual being in a physical body.
You are the energy and vibration of continuously expanding love, intelligence, and joy.
Your physical experience in your physical body and your psychological experience of your personality is a small part of the totality of who you truly are.
Let yourself imagine from time to time what it might feel like to experience more of the wondrous totality of who you really are, and don’t be surprised if you are able to experience this more often.
2) You are the creator of all that you experience.
As you open to the possibility your true nature is greater than you ordinarily perceive, it becomes easier to consider the possibility that this expanded you is truly the creator of everything that you experience.
If you’re used to thinking of yourself in a more limited sense, the idea that you are the creator of your experience may be difficult to understand. Our post, What About This Idea That We Create Whatever We Desire, offers insights into this idea.
3) You are here to expand the love you are into physical reality.
You chose, as a spiritual being, to come into this physical reality to experience the joy of expanding the love you are as a spiritual being, into this physical reality. This is your purpose for being here.
