3 Ways to get rid of BAD HABITS for good - through visualization

Do you bite your nails? Overeat junk food? Stay up too late? Yep, we’re talking about bad habits. If you are reading this post, chances are that you would like to know how to get rid of bad habits once and for all,

If you’re tired of living with your less than perfect habits, it might be time for a change.

Whether you’re wanting to quit smoking or maybe hope to hit the gym (a lot) more often, you’re going to need a plan. No one defeats a habit by accident after all.
 
Have you considered using visualization? Visualization takes your thoughts and maps them out in such a way you see your goal already accomplished.

​It’s this picture in your mind (your vision, if you will) that carries you straight to the success you crave.
3 Ways to get rid of BAD HABITS for good - through visualization
If you’re tired of living with your less than perfect habits, it might be time for a change.

How to get rid of bad habits for once and for all? Try these three quick and easy methods:

Attack at the Heart of the Habit
What causes you to reach for the cookies? Knowing just what the motivation is for the behavior you want to change is more than half the battle.

Once you get to the root of the problem, visualize the trigger in your mind. Include the words, situations, smells, whatever you can picture, which normally lead you right into the behavior and visualize a different action over what you would typically do.

For example, if you eat cookies when your mom calls because she leaves you frustrated, visualize yourself taking a walk, breathing deeply the fresh air instead as a way to work off the stress.

Rewrite the Emotions
We all have emotional triggers where bad habits are concerned. In this method, identify what you feel before you dive into the habitual activity.
For example, you might feel sad or jealous whenever you see your friends are doing something cool while you’re staying at home, so you reach for a beer to help bury the emotion. Instead, visualize your initial emotional response and calm it through meditation or deep breathing.

Once you’ve dissipated the negative emotion, call up a positive one alternatively. What would you instead feel? Maybe you can feel content or even a little bit smug because you’re not going out and spending money. After all, you’re saving for a fantastic trip of your own.
 
Start Over
Forget the bad habit entirely in this one. Instead, you’re going to picture the habit you want. Are you anxious to visit the gym? Picture yourself going in careful detail. Layer in positive, happy emotions about going. Make this a visualization you can desire and even crave.

​Create this scene often. You’ll find yourself wanting to change your action, to experience in real life what you’ve been imagining. Tada! A new habit begins!

HOW TO BECOME HAPPY AGAIN:  Visualizations for a Happier Relaxed You

How to become happy again

Picture
Calm down. Seriously.
We all have things that leave us on edge. Sometimes it’s an event or a person. Sometimes we’re more anxious due to more significant issues, leaving us unsure of our safety and well-being, like when a severe illness is going around. Whatever the case, anxiety is adept at derailing our lives and keeping us from accomplishing what we want and need to.
 
How do you handle this kind of nervous worrying?

​If you
’re lucky, you eventually learn how to take it in stride. For some people, their coping skills aren’t healthy. For others, they flounder, trying to find their way. If you’re in these latter groups, consider this: Visualization is a proven skill shown to reduce anxiety and create a calmer and happier you. Let’s explore how.

Shut it Out
Our thoughts can be noisy things. We hear so many voices in our heads, reminding of us deadlines, things to do, and people to see. Add to this the negative self-talk which creeps in occasionally and the half-heard phrases we’ve carried with us, which sound suspiciously like our parents, and you’ve got a lot of chatter and no peace.

For this kind of problem, visualize yourself in a room with a big open window. Set all these voices outside the window. Now, take a deep breath and shut the window firmly. This is a nice thick double-paned glass. You can no longer hear the voices when the window is closed.


Go Somewhere Else
Feeling especially fearful? It’s time for a trip to feel someplace safe. For some, this might be the beach. Or perhaps you’d feel more at home by a mountain lake or city café sipping coffee. Wherever you feel the safest and most at home, you want to go there now in your mind. Start by sitting back and making yourself comfortable.

Close your eyes and picture yourself in your favorite place. Add in every detail you can to make this experience as real as possible. Include all your senses in the background. Breathing deeply, holding yourself in this place until you feel calm and somewhat refreshed.

With visualizations like these, you tell your mind to calm. You take back control where you need it most and set your feet back on a better path. Remember, you’re in charge of what goes on in your head. Don’t let anxiety set the tone for you.

The law of attraction: Visualise anything you want!  If you have any goals or dreams that you want to accomplish, then visualization is a powerful tool you should not ignore. If you want to learn how to use visualization to manifest the life that you want, then this is this course is for you.
Unwind with some String
Feeling all tense and coiled up inside? This usually comes when you’re holding back too many emotions. Picture yourself carrying around all these knotted emotions tangled up with words you’ve wanted to say all day but couldn’t.

Make all these feelings into an imaginary ball of yarn. Now sit back and take several calming breathes as you withdraw this ball of yarn and hold it in your hand. Do you feel the weight? Good. Now drop it on the floor, holding onto the end of the string so that the ball rolls away from you, unraveling as it goes. Watch all the strands of yarn unwind, disappearing as they do. Stay in the vision until the entire ball is unwound and gone, and you
’re feeling lighter and more relaxed.

The Power of Positive Thinking: How And Why Positive Thinking Works

9/17/2020

1 Comment

 


​The Power of Positive Thinking


“Optimism is the most important human trait, because it allows us to evolve our ideas, to improve our situation, and to hope for a better tomorrow.” ~ Seth Godin
​
Picture

Believing in the power of positive thinking is one of the most effective ways to change your attitude. But this can be difficult for many people.

From the time we are young we are told not to do certain things. We hear the words “no” and “can’t” more often than not. We go through difficult times; everything from divorce to the loss of jobs or loved ones. We could become bitter and negative about everything in life.

Being optimistic is directly related to how we think. Positive thinking has the power to change a lot of things in our lives. Research reveals that positive thinking is more than just being happy or having a happy attitude. Positive thoughts can actually help you create life skills that last much longer than a mere smile.

​Negative thoughts, on the other hand, can narrow your mind and focus your thoughts. They keep you from seeing opportunities and moving forward – there is always that “what if” scenario going through your mind.


Positive thinking impacts your work, your health, and your life in every way. It’s been shown to affect how you develop your skills. It affects your health in how you see things. For instance, when
you are happy, contented and feel loved, you see more possibilities for your life.


In this report we’ll discover what “positive thinking” actually is and how it affects us. We’ll see why it works and how you can incorporate into your daily life.
Follow our Positivity Board On Pinterest ​

What Is Positive Thinking?

What and who you are begins with a thought.

The mind is a powerful tool that can make or break your life and your business success. You can use your mind to fuel business success, change your life for the better and improve your relationships with others. But what exactly is positive thinking? Is it simply putting on a happy face or does it involve more than that?


You’ve probably heard the saying “Is your glass half-empty or half-full?” How you answer that question provides some insight to your outlook on life and whether you are generally a pessimist or an optimist.

​Positive thinking is basically your mental attitude. It’s an attitude in which you always expect good results. In other words, it’s the process of creating thoughts that can transform energy into reality. A positive attitude looks for happiness, health and happy endings in every situation.


Positive thinking is gaining popularity among many people.

More and more people will tell you they got where they are because of their positive thinking lifestyle. In fact, a person who faces their life with a positive mentality will almost always be more successful in both their careers and their personal relationships than the negative thinker.

Understanding positive thinking and positive self-talk

Positive thinking isn’t the act of hiding from life’s tough or unpleasant situations. In fact, positive thinking means you approach those situations in a more productive and positive way, instead of with a negative attitude. You believe the best is going to happen.

Negative people are worriers. They believe the worst will happen no matter what.
Positive thinking begins with self-talk – the thoughts that run through your head.

​
​Negative self-talk leads to a pessimistic outlook on life, while a positive outlook leaves you an optimist.

Positive thinking isn’t the idea that you see the world through rose-colored glasses by ignoring the negative things in life, though. Positive thinking means having a positive outlook, but you don’t ignore the bad things. It involves making the best out of a bad situation, or trying to see the best in others.

Those with a pessimistic style, on the other hand, blame themselves for all outcomes. They believe bad events will last and are to be expected.

 An optimistic and positive attitude leads to healthier lifestyles, both physically and mentally.

There are health benefits that come from positive thinking as well. Some of them include:
  • Increased life span
  • Lower rates of depression
  • Lower levels of distress
  • Greater resistance to the common cold
  • Better psychological well-being
  • Reduced risk of death from cardiovascular disease
  • Better coping skills during hardships and times of stress
  • Increased physical well-being

​Positive thinking is more than just smiling and avoiding bad situations. Positive thinking is how you see every situation in a positive way. It reduces the stress on your body that comes from negative thinking.

Why Positive Thinking Works

You know what positive thinking is and how it can affect your health. But does it really work? Can positive thinking improve your life or is it just a scam?

Positive thinking is very effective at changing your life if you understand what it is and how it works.

Before you put on your rose-colored glasses, you need to realize positive thinking is more than just being overly optimistic about life.

Psychologists suggests that you center on things like
  • your belief in your abilities,
  • to come at challenges with a positive approach
  • and try to make the best of bad situations.

Positive thinkers look at situations realistically while they look for ways to improve the situation and learn from their experience.

​A lot of research has found that positive thinkers cope differently in their lives than other people do. They are problem solvers who try to improve their individual situations. If a bad situation can’t be improved then they are more likely than pessimists are to move on.

Optimists are more likely to engage in healthy habits that will protect them against disease. They are less likely to smoke, drink heavily or eat poorly. They exercise, sleep well and stick to rehab programs.

Optimism is associated with better psychological health. Optimists are less depressed, have less anxiety and face difficult life situations with

Positive thinking has a positive effect on their bodies, leading to better decision-making and control over situations that optimists may find themselves in.

Positive thinking works by helping the body effectively change how you perceive bad situations in life.

​Having negative thoughts can play havoc on your life. They can bring you pain and worry. They drain your energy and keep you in the moment instead of being able to move past it.


Positive thoughts, though, can help you see solutions to a problem, help you move forward and leave you feeling relaxed and full of energy.

Now that you know what positive thinking is and how it can affect almost every situation in your life, you probably want to know how you can begin incorporating it into your life.

Here are 11 things you can do to help overcome your negative thoughts.

Incorporating positive thoughts into your life can change your future. You can become happier, healthier and more successful if you believe you can.

Where to Go From Here


​Positive thinking is more than seeing life through rose-colored glasses and avoiding bad things. It’s about a way of thinking that encourages positive outcomes. Positive thinkers seek solutions to problems. They see their value in different situations and can visualize their successes.

You can build happiness and positive thoughts in your life through meditation, writing in a journal, playing games or whatever else that encourages positive thoughts.

Positive people share characteristics that promote good health and overall happiness: They think about and emphasize good things in life.
  • They are grateful and thankful.
  • They don’t complain.
  • They feel they can do anything to achieve success and reach their goals. They believe in abundance.
  • They are confident.
  • They eat a healthy diet, exercise regularly and get enough sleep.
Having a positive attitude is something that can be changed. You don’t have to live with negative thoughts. When you catch yourself being negative, change the thought.

Hoarding happens when clutter gets the upper hand. Being a hoarder takes the joy away from life, and can severely alter your lifestyle as your numerous belongings spiral out of control. Here are some ways to stop hoarding and start living the clutter-free life you desire.

Find out Why You Hoard

Everybody has a different explanation for hoarding, therefore everyone will have a different inspiration required so as to quit. Reflect in your past. Have you always loved to keep things too long, or was there a specific point when the hoarding began?

​Also Read 5 Steps to Minimalism - Living A Meaningful Life

Becoming a hoarder can take place very naturally. It can start with a sincere wish not to waste, and to utilize what you have. It can begin with a love for shopping that gets out of control. It can start with a terrible event and the loss of a loved one, and an ultimate hesitation to let go of any personal memories you have of them. 

Think about a Few Little Steps

You don't need to completely give your home a remodeling in an instant. Begin thinking about little ways you can change the home you stay in, so as to slowly turn it into your dream home.

Take little steps, like deciding not to buy anything aside from necessities such as food. If you do buy something, make a promise to yourself that you will do away with a minimum of ten other things before it arrives through the door. Clean one section of your home each time, even though it is only a desk or another small area.

Find Strategies That Inspire You

A little fantasizing always helps you alongside your goal of quitting hoarding. Save a folder on Pinterest with pictures of minimalist homes that you love. Visualize yourself and your family living there, and think of how you might feel. Make a small binder of suggestions you find in magazines, if you like. Just beware not to overdo it with the clippings to the point where they are adding to the mess. You can also invest a minimal amount in a printable declutter planner like the one pictured on this page,

Get Help If Needed

There is no embarassment in seeking help if your hoarding goes beyond what is normal. Find an organizer who is competent in helping hoarders reduce their clutter and organize their homes. Donít hesitate to ask your friends for help, as they love you and are greater than likely to be happy to help you enter your new, clutter-free life.

Also ReadDecluttering Your Mind

If you believe that you just can not make the changes, seek an advisor who knows with hoarding to ensure that they can assist you in releasing yourself from the prison youíve enclosed yourself in. Major hoarding is greater than just a bad habit, and could be mentally crippling.

Being a hoarder can have an unfavorable effect on each and every single area of your life. You can trade this way of life for a clutter-free version if you want. Take the necessary actions and turn your home into a haven that you always look forward to coming home to.

​A Five Step Exercise to Enhance 
Your Senses

For 5 weeks, we will focus on one sense each week. For instance, week one you could pay particular attention to everything you see that week. Do not then pay to much attention to your other four senses in your “sight” week. In a "touch week" focus on feeling various textures, and so on. 
 
Perform this exercise over the next 5 weeks, concentrating on a different sense each week.
 
Repeat this exercise from time to time to stay in touch with all of your senses so you can reap the very most benefits from all five of them.

The Art of Listening
 
True listening has the power of transforming relationships on a majestic scale. It can make the difference between a failed and a successful career. How well you listen in the same way affects your relationships with your family members and friends. 
 
Try these tips to fine tune your listening skills:

  • Look at the person speaking. Show your interest by attentively leaning forward. Make sure that you maintain eye contact and stop with whatever it is that your re doing listen to this person.
  • Do not become distracted by your phone, the tv or anything else while you are listening.
  • You have to show your interest from time to time by nodding or saying “really?” or “I see what you mean."  
  • Do not plan what you are going to say next while the speaker is talking. Let him or her finish first before you consider your reply.
  • Exhibit self-control and avoid being judgemental while the person is speaking. If what the person said makes you angry first count to ten and think about an objective response before saying a a thing.
  • Make sure you understood what they said by summarising “so you are saying...”  and wait with your questions while the other person is speaking.

​Research has long shown that music enhance brain power, health, and a general sense of well-being. This phenomenon is known as “The Mozart Effect.”
Improve Creativity and Focus With the Music of Mozart
Mozart’s music, in particular the "Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major", has been shown to boost brain power.
 
Dr. Alfred Tomatis discovered the Mozart Effect in the late 1950's while he was experimenting with the effects of Mozart’s music on autistic children. By 1990, the method had been adopted worldwide. It was also found that Mozart’s music is also beneficial in reducing the negative effects of epilepsy.  
 
Classical music relieves stress and is shown to improve your body’s immune system. Mozart’s compositions and Baroque music like Bach that is 50 to 80 beats per minute also enhances a person’s focus by inducing the Alpha state brain waves which is ideal for learning and reading. ​

Want To Achieve Your Goals? Take a look at these 7 useful ideas

12/31/2018

What About ​Cultivating positive habits?
You must have seen how some people just seem to have the knack of getting things done. They will say a thing like, 'I am going to begin exercising next year', and they do! However when you try, it's a different story. You stay with it awhile and then in some way it all falls flat. It can really easily make you discouraged and disheartened. You need to create good habits that stick, to inspire you. 
Picture

Take a look at these 7 useful ideas and use them to see how you get along:

VISUALISE SUCCESS - FREE DOWNLOAD
1. Begin small
Many people wish to plunge in at the deep end and change things over night, but if you wish to succeed, it is best to start small and increase because sustaining positive habit does take a great deal of willpower. Research shows that willpower resembles a muscle, once you use it, it burns out, and when it's tired it needs to stop. The solution is to start small without using a lot of willpower. So if its exercises we're discussing, rather than embarking on 50 pushups a day, start with five. Always establish your habit behavior first, not increasing the amounts until what you have started becomes a natural part of you.

2. Get linked to your good habit
Maybe you've started a project at the office and worked doggedly on it. You type of don't wish to let it go as you think about it as 'yours'. But we can use this mindset to our advantage, as a visual reminder of the investment you have made in your good habit. It's a great idea to get a calendar, with a marker alongside it, marking the date you started and watching its progress-- with the intention of never breaking the chain.

3. Are your objectives clear?
Being serious regarding your new positive habits means eliminating non-serious intentions. Research, once more, shows that you are a lot more likely to complete if you have analyzed your plans beforehand and you know exactly what you will do and when. It's no good saying, 'I think I will exercise 3 times a week'. You need to actually start making it happen, otherwise, you won't hack it. It is a good help if you plan your goals beforehand using a detailed goal planner.

​4. Rejoice in victories

When you are managing yourself well with your positive habits, reward yourself. Rewarding yourself releases good-feeling chemicals in the brain, feelings of pride and pleasure. It equips you to continue with your good habits and create bigger wins later on.

​Also Read: How To Keep Focus On Long Term Goals 

5. Create your own surrounding
Lot of times, our environment is what drives our behavior. Create your environment and shape it to support your positive habits. Each of your new habits will require energy to do it done and the more energy and action need to follow it through causes a person to become less likely to complete with it. Maybe, rather than finishing a book, you rather watch TV. Now place your book where the TV is and move the TV to another room. Get the drift? It's creating the right environment so you can promote the change.

6. Supporters will support you
People whom you stay with or whom you come into contact everyday with can influence on your behavior a lot. As an example, if your best friend ends up being overweight, you increase the risk of turning into obese yourself by as much as 57%! Research and experience show us that we type of feel similarly and even act sometimes the same as individuals we spend a great deal of time with. That means you need to be with the same type of people who think like you. If you want positive things to happen in your life, you can't surround yourself with pessimists. You need positive people around you who make you feel positive and act positively.

7. Be responsible
Regretfully, 99% of people who set adventurous goals don't execute them because they don't plan them out. You can't be responsible for positive changes and habits if you have not thought, prepared for and put them into motion. A goal without consequences is just wishful thinking. You need to make favorable goals and put stakes on your new habits to hold your own self responsible. Setting positive goals, and achieving them requires energy, dedication, and self-control, plus some truly hard work. Do you have what it takes?
