As soon as I heard Lulu’s buoyant voice – “Darling!” – I knew my mental batteries were going to be supercharged. And I was right, because you can’t be with this woman for even a few seconds without feeling that the world is a brighter place. People always laugh when she’s around: she energises everybody with a frivolous spirit. There is no doubt in my mind that this is why Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley love working with Lulu on Absolutely Fabulous! When I asked her, teasingly, how she managed to stay in such fantastic shape, she told me in two words: “Positive thinking.” And she’s the high-energy proof that we really can live happier, more fulfilling lives if we simply tackle everything in a positive frame of mind.

Being positive is all about seeing the best in everyone and everything. Find the sunshine in whatever you do, and greet everyone with a happy face. It’s amazing how the positive energy which you radiate is reflected back tenfold, repaying you for your smiles.

Some people scoff when I say I believe that positive thinking can actually help to keep our bodies healthy. When I look at Lulu and laugh with her, I am certain I am right.

The Psychic Challenge
You can test the power of colour – in black and white!
See if you can tune in to which of the four colours – Pink, Blue, Yellow or Orange – I am trying to transmit.
Look at each word in turn and imagine the colour that it suggests. You can also try my dowsing test too – and hold your hand over each word in turn as you imagine those colours at their most intense. If you feel a burst of heat or a tingle in your palm, that should be the colour I am trying to transmit.

1. Pink
2. Blue
3. Yellow
4. Orange
