Negative vs positive. The ever-existing battle in your mindWritten by Lynne Dean
No news here just a statement. WE ARE ALL THINKING ALL OF THE TIME. Can you believe that our thoughts never leave us. Wow! Silly thoughts, hungry thoughts, angry thoughts, melancholy thoughts, happy thoughts; that’s a bunch of emotions that has a significant impact on our lives. Physically, emotionally, it’s all there. Every thought is connected to our body to create a response. Example: imagine a hot summer day. There is absolutely no breeze. You are sitting on a rock in middle of your yard. Smell earth, heat. HEAR crickets doing their thing. The sun is hot on your body. In your hand, you have an ice cold drink. You are thirsty. Put glass to your lips. Drink. AHHHHHH. Wasn’t that nice? Were you there with me? Thoughts influence our emotions. Try this other exercise. Think of something that makes you happy. Anything. Now think of something that you hate doing and that makes you feel miserable. Okay. Back to something that makes you smile. See. Thoughts rule our emotions instantly. Change your thoughts to happy thoughts and your emotions will change.

Read if frequently. Several times a day. If possible say it out loud. Add a feeling to it. Believe it. It won’t make a difference today, nor tomorrow, but wait for./ a couple of weeks then positive affect should resume before your realize it.
