If you are a patient of mine, you know I practice the power of positive thinking through affirmations, and I strongly believe in the law of attraction. I am excited to post about this because it is essential for everyone to start thinking more positively in order to improve their health. The greatest thing about positive thought is that it is inside of all of us right now. We don't have to buy it or search for it, we've got it readily available. We just have to start practicing!
Numerous studies have shown that the power of positive thoughts actually re-route neurons in your brain, so your brain gets "trained" to think positively after you say a positive affirmation or think a positive thought. When you think positively, your body's pH becomes more alkaline, your metabolic rate increases, your blood sugar lowers, and your immune system gets a boost. Pain perception is less, and energy levels go up. All from one positive thought.
Positive thinking is a mental attitude that admits into the mind thoughts, words and images that are conductive to growth, expansion and success. It is a mental attitude that expects good and favorable results. A positive mind anticipates happiness, joy, health and a successful outcome of every situation and action. Whatever the mind expects, it finds. Positive and negative thinking are both contagious. All of us affect, in one way or another, the people we meet. This happens instinctively and on a subconscious level, through thoughts and feelings transference and through body language.
People sense our aura and are affected by our thoughts. Is it any wonder that we want to be around positive persons and shun negative ones? People are more disposed to help us if we are positive. They dislike and avoid anyone broadcasting negativity. Negative thoughts, words and attitude bring up negative and unhappy moods and actions. When the mind is negative, poisons are released into the blood, which cause more unhappiness and negativity. This is the way to failure, frustration, disappointment, and ultimately sickness and pain.
In order to turn the mind toward the positive, inner work and training are required. Attitude and thoughts do not change overnight. Read about this subject, think about its benefits and persuade yourself to try it. I recommend any book by Louise Hay. The power of thoughts is a mighty power that is always shaping our life. This shaping is usually done subconsciously, but it is possible to make the process a conscious one. Even if the idea seems strange give it a try, as you have nothing to lose, but only to gain. Ignore what others might say or think about you, if they discover that you are changing the way you think and live.
Always visualize only favorable and beneficial situations. Use positive words in your inner dialogues or when talking with others. Smile a little more, as this helps to think positively. Disregard any feelings of laziness or a desire to quit. If you persevere, you will transform the way your mind thinks.
Once a negative thought enters your mind, you have to be aware of it and endeavor to replace it with a constructive one. The negative thought will try again to enter your mind, and then you have to replace it again with a positive one. It is as if there are two pictures in front of you, and you choose to look at one of them and disregard the other. Persistence will eventually teach your mind to think positively and ignore negative thoughts.
In case you feel any inner resistance when replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, do not give up, but keep looking only at the beneficial, good and happy thoughts in your mind.
It does not matter what your circumstances are at the present moment. Think positively, expect only favorable results and situations, and circumstances will change accordingly. It may take some time for the changes to take place, but eventually they do.
All is well,
Dr. M
