How to Boost One's Karma

Karma is the universal concept of balance. Good is balanced by bad and bad balanced by good. Sometimes Karma can get unbalanced, whether it's the actions of a past life dragging down the present or a realization that some sort of cosmic atonement is necessary. Boosting karma, despite religious preferences or beliefs, is a good idea for everyone as it offers the chance to do some real good in the world.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Perform selfless acts for strangers on a daily basis with no expectation of reward or thanks. Being nice to boost karma only works if your intentions are selflessly motivated.

2. Donate time or money to a cause or charity close to your heart. Everyone knows that giving to the less fortunate makes you feel good about yourself, but karma is not about feeling good, it's about doing good. Choose a cause that takes your time and benefits as large a number of people as possible.

3. Reduce the amount of negative thoughts that go through your head every day. Every time you non-verbally judge or criticize another person, place or thing you are contributing to negative karma. Take a moment to check yourself and replace the negativity with an open minded live and let live thought.

4. Remember people's birthdays and anniversaries and always send a card or give them a call. Boosting karma is about sending positive energy into the universe and every time you make someone smile, laugh or shed a tear of joy, you give the cosmic order a bit of a boost.

5. Be happy for other people and their accomplishments. Having pride in the successes of family and friends, even being their personal cheerleader is a major karmic boost. Realizing that it really isn't all about you is enlightening and it helps your friends feel good about themselves too.

6. Watch the international news everyday to improve your global awareness and personal perspective. Realizing that the lives of others are important and often saddled with adversities you could never hope to understand puts empathy into the universal energy and allows you to comprehend your place and significance in the world. It may also help you find the cause that will become close to your heart.

7. Never harm another person or animal intentionally whether physical or emotional. Bad karma, negative universal energy is created by such acts that harm not only the other person or animal but you yourself. Living a life unfettered by such negativity is a natural almost unconscious karmic boost.
