6. Perform an Act of Compassion, Caring, Kindness and Service Daily – Choose to Make a Difference
Choose any activity in which you do something for another person or group of people with authentic feelings of compassion and love. This needs to be more than signing a check. Do a physical deed that impacts on the quality of life of another person or being, whether it's bringing dinner to one who is shut in or helping the elderly, blind or others in need of assistance. 7. Choose to Be Inspired
Choose to read or listen to materials that inform, soothe, entertain and connect you with your own soul. 
Apollon's own book, Touched by the Extraordinary: An Intuitive Psychologist Shares Insights, Lessons and True Stories of Spirit and Love to Transform and Heal the Soul (Matters of the Soul, 2005), is one such work.

Others she recommends include Conversations with God (Neal Donald Walsch; Putnam, 1996); The Secret (Rhonda Byrne, Atria Books, 2006); Many Lives, Many Masters (Brian Weiss, M.D.; Simon & Schuster, 2002); The Hidden Messages in Water
