    Jerry: So, what would be the best thing we could do to either maintain or regain perfect health or to influence others around us toward their perfect health?

    Abraham: Actually, the process for regaining health and maintaining health are one and the same: Focus upon more things that feel good. The biggest difference between regaining and maintaining is that it is easier to think good-feeling thoughts when you feel good than when you feel bad, so maintaining health is much easier to do than regaining health. The best way to influence others to sickness is to get sick.

    We understand that for those who are now in a place where they do not want to be, it sounds very simplistic to just find a better-feeling thought. But it is our absolute promise to you that if you were to be determined to improve the way you feel by deliberately choosing thoughts that feel better, you would begin to see immediate improvement in anything that is troubling you.

    Focus upon more things that feel good is the only way to get rid of everything that is troubles us. I do agree with this. But what if we are in the overwhelming anxiety and cannot go through it? Can this contention still work? Many people will doubt it. I think the answer is yes. The contention is simple. The only way we can do is not to think too much. Every breath in every moment can prove to you that life is great. Life is short, we should treasure every moment and live happily in our lives! Once we feel good, maintain or regain perfect health is not as difficult as we think.
