Exercise seven

Every time you think of anything negative make sure you think of just one thing positive, it's only fair

Exercise eight

The quality of the service you receive is largely related to the relationship with your service provider. For example your photographer will take much nicer pictures of someone who is not trying to control and direct him or her. We are all the same - we try harder for people we like. Being kind and thoughtful will cost you nothing but will gain you everything. Start cultivating happy fun relationships with your service providers. You don't have to be bosom buddies but a little humanity and kindness really does turn on the lights. Want your wedding planner to do back flips for you and run the ship with a whip... be sincere to her, notice her work and effort and she will become your slave. In exchange for a few gentle words you will get service money can't buy.

Still can't let go or tame the wild horses that run wild in your head? Make a worry jar, write your worries on pieces of paper and pop them in the jar. The jar is your average mailing service to the universe, things you don't know what to do about put them in your jar. Hand it over and forget it. It’s in the jar.

Exercise six

Repeat this mantra 100 times each time you brush your teeth, yes 100 times... everyday:

These will seem like ridiculous exercises but my darling Bridezilla's I know the syndrome and I guarantee you I can save you from yourself if you are diligent about your exercises. No matter what just remember on the day, I have got your back and I am on your side.

Exercise one

A childlike but not childish attitude

Children are amazing they live in the present. They delight in small blessings and often don't notice unimportant details. They live with their hearts and skip. This is a great side to a child's character. Rather than the childish... me me me me! Watch children, play with children. They will teach you the art of fun. Fun and laughter and a sense of humour will make you delicious to be around and fun makes fun.... the most beautiful brides I know are fun and joyful.
