The Power of Thoughts
Thoughts are the reflection of the quality of an individual’s life. In an era where pace precedes over everything the success rate of life depends on the quality of one’s thought. Thoughts are positive as well as negative with desired implications in our life. They lead to an individual’s development or degradation depending on his thoughts. It is his ability to channel his thought that determines his self-development. An individual today is tied down with responsibilities that seem to rob him of his personal space degrading the quality of his life. His life revolves around the clock; he wants to be everywhere always. In his desire to reach everywhere he seems to drag his life. He has a decent bank balance but doesn’t have peace of mind, which ironically no money in the world can buy. An individual may own the most luxurious beds but he is unable to sleep. He seems to have trade off his peace of mind with his professional success.
However the onus lies on the individual to handle pessimism around him. It is he who has to see brighter side of things and adopt positive approach in his life for his own benefit. Various techniques like maintaining diary, writing goals, adequate sleep, reading self help books create a positive aura. Writing regularly helps in the process of self-healing, pouring your inner emotions in the diary aids in self-analysis. Writing your goals on weekly basis and breaking them into daily basis makes the vision of life clear and realistic. Goals become achievable as the person now becomes aware of daily tasks to be done for the ultimate goal realization. Prioritizing your schedule helps an individual focus on important areas of his life. It is usually the trivial things that drain the person’s energy leaving him no time for the important tasks. Ten minutes everyday in the morning and before sleeping should be devoted to positive thoughts for they heal an individual and equips him with high levels of energy.
A happy life, positive thinking, and a healthy body are all interlinked. It is the key to healthy and long life. Writing and chanting positive thoughts creates positive aura around an individual adding to his well being. Meditation is another important tool, sitting in cross leg position with eyes closed helps cool mind, decreases heart rate and cortisol levels. Also it improves concentration. Regular exercise relieves unwanted chemicals from the body. Eating vitamins and proteins in your daily diet in addition to avoiding alcohol, coffee and smoking keeps you physically fit. Also adding borage, ginger and other herbs to your diet can scale stress down. Music is a great healer and helps calm mind. Change of scenery at workplace brings positivism and increases efficiency of an individual. Besides oils like geranium and lavender when used during massage relaxes the mind. An eight hour sleep rejuvenates the body and prepares it for the tasks ahead. Inculcating in your life practices like yoga, reiki, Pilates and self talk can make immense difference to your life. Proper breathing provides oxygen to your brain and enhances blood circulation in your body; it must be done daily to promote healthy living. Nothing gives as much joy as the time spent with your loved ones; time spent with them provides you the ultimate happiness. One should make it a point to take time out to be with their family.
