Seniors go on line for Affirmations
Seniors go on line to use affirmations to make those changes in our lifestyle so important to us. Do you need to exercise, lose weight, give up a habit, make decisions, then use affirmations to provide the wisdom and strength to carry through.
Subconscious affirmations are mentioned on Awake 200.com.
“The conscious mind primarily functions with the left side of your brain and the subconscious mind through the right side. Each side of your brain, also known as hemispheres control different actions and responses. The left side is responsible for more rationalized and logical behavior such as thinking, where the right side is more imaginative and expressive with feelings and emotions.”
The article continues “The conscious mind discriminates what we want to believe and accept. ” In other words it can talk us out of affirmations. This site suggests that the subconscious mind will allow thoughts to be accepted if we hear them in our sleep. This is a good article to read to understand how our mind controls our positive affirmations.
Reading affirmations: Whether you wish to read a whole book or one line quotes, what we read affects our thinking. How often you read and for what length of time will seal the affirmations in your mind and actions.
Writing: Gems for friends.com gives this explanation. Simply sit down at a table and write what you would like in your life 15 times every day. An example is: “I am healthy, happy, wise and free”. When you are done know that the universe is taking care of it.”
Some people will take that writing and tuck it into a revered place, such as their bible, or some other place of respect. Don’t just toss it into the junk drawer. That means that you are disrespectful of your thoughts.
Throw away the negative by writing down the statement and burning, throwing in trash, or flush it down the toilet. Replace the negative with the positive written statements.
Affirmations while walking.
“As I walked, I crafted my affirmation today, and noticed that as I said it to myself, my stride changed. I walked taller, more confidently, more powerfully. I want that all the time!” Valorie’s Link Blog .
Affirmations change our physical well being as our brain convinces our body of our worth.
Singing affirmations I had the experience of singing an affirmation as I walked, singing just one song over and over. As I sang I picked up courage and strength completing a 7 mile walk in the dark and through a dangerous part of town.
Choosing Friends Ever think about why we reject and accept friendships. Those who affirm our worth are welcomed into our circle of friends. Those who would pull us down or defeat our goals are pushed aside. Choose friends on line who build you up and who you can give a boost so that we can lose those pounds, build muscles, write that book or whatever we wish to attain.
Panda Picked affirmations as a great method to keep us positive and always growing as we age. Whether you want to read one liners or find books on affirmations, go on line for your reading materials, walk or run while you repeat your affirmations, look on line for great places where you can enjoy nature. We seniors can even put on that tape recorder and do it while we take that famous afternoon nap. Skype, on line communities and other messenger services provide us with on line friends who affirm our worth when we can’t leave the house.
