Well are you??I’m not at
moment, but I do! Sometimes.
And don’t you find that more you try *not* to blush, more you do!!
At this point I could jump into a deep explanation of biology involved with blushing, but hey, what do you think I am, a doctor?
The important bit, is that blushing is a physical reaction brought on by a thought. Our thoughts bring physical reactions all time, it’s just that most of time we don’t notice it.
Blushing is a fine example, and here’s another one…
The relaxed feeling that washes over you when you hear Beethoven’s ‘Moonlight Sonata’, which is a physical release of chemicals by brain, triggered by your thoughts.
Or how about involuntary foot-tapping when you hear ‘Achy Breaky Heart’? (Or maybe that’s just me on that one).
You’re probably ahead of me on this one, but this principle can be harnessed and used to your advantage.
You can deliberately concentrate on positive thoughts, and equally deliberately you can catch yourself when you start those negative thoughts.
Next time someone cuts you up in car, don’t toot your horn or show off your sign language skills, just smile and whistle a tune to yourself, (Achy Breaky Heart maybe?)
