Welcome to Karmic Pleasures, enjoy your stay!
What is Karma?
Karma originated from Hindu belief, and is the basically the idea that a person who does wrong, gets wronged in return. Pagans believe that it's about the energy you send out, whether positive or negative, the same kind of energy comes back to us.
How can I turn it to my advantage?
Since it is about sending positive energy to receive it, then you must do something good. There are three easy steps in which to do this, so don't worry about having to try and be like Mother Teresa, just follow these three steps and wait for the change!
1. Pay at least five compliments a day,
2. Give at least three hugs a week,
3. Say "have a nice day" to people like shop assistants or bus drivers and so on.
It can't really be that simple can it?
Sure! Well, almost! There are three things you must avoid in order for this to work.
1. Insincere Compliments - You can only give out positive energy if you are actually being positive.
2. Hugging your family - Sure hug them, but this doesn't count towards the three hugs a week, as they are your family and you should already be hugging them. You don't have to hug complete strangers though if you don't want to, you can hug a friend instead.
3. Saying "have a nice day" quietly - Say it loud and proud, just throw that positive energy out there and wait for it to come right back to you, don't be ashamed of being a good person!
Ok, I can do this now, is there anything else I can do?
There is always some way to be nice to somebody, you should try exploring this yourself as well as me telling you what you can do. Try talking to random people, maybe somebody who is stood at the bus stop with you or in the queue at the bank. If you are stuck for something to say, then talk about the weather or children. They are the best things to start a conversation off with! The other thing you could talk about is music, doesn't everybody love music?
I am really stressed at the moment and am finding this hard, what should I do?
Try meditating to clear your mind and body of the tension, this also makes room for that extra positive energy! You could also try taking a long hot bath, anything that is relaxing. I would also recommend that you double the three steps, 10 compliments and six hugs, if you can manage this when you are finding it difficult then you can sure as hell do it when it isn't!
Do you actually do this stuff?
Sure I do! I have made most of my friends through doing this, all the bus drivers know who I am and the cafeteria workers at my college love me! Sure, people think I am slightly eccentric, but who cares?!
On one final note, I would just like to say that I hope this works for you, if you don't believe that it will, then you are not actually sending out positive energy and won't get any in return. Chin up and persevere!
Take care, Peace and Love to all!

P.S. Karma doesn't work within set times, so if you want a quick reaction, wear something really bright and eye-catching, when people notice you it gives you more time to be kind and give out positive energy while they send it to you because you're not just another face in the crowd.
