It's so easy to let our minds mill over things that aren't so good for us, causing stress, or worry. Our minds are always thinking. That's what they do. It's easy to let them just go off and wreak havoc if we let them. Anne Lamott said it so well! "My Mind is a neighborhood I try not to go into alone."
Rumination is thinking about something over and over, that is upsetting and not positive. Rumination refers to the tendency to repetitively think about the causes, situational factors, and consequences of one's negative emotional experience. ~ Nolen Hoeksema
If you tend to be a worrier or not, focusing on what you want keeps your mind thinking about exactly that, and not what don't want. The morning is a good time to think about how you want to feel, and what you are up to in life. Our deeply creative subconscious mind is super receptive in between sleeping, and being fully awake. Before bed is too. Keep your most important goals with you, maybe in a pretty book, written on a card, or on your tablet or phone.
We have all had those days where we wake up tired, and we are not feeling it. First thing when you wake up is the best time to say, "I bless my future because I can." Add I feel good, or I am confident and I easily get things done today. Everyone I meet is cheery. There are lots of things to be grateful for today.
I was inspired by Super Soul Sunday for this week's mantra. Joel Olsteen talked about the power of I AM. This is an ancient practice and I am thrilled he is preaching about it. It will take you far. Thinking good and affirming thoughts blesses us, and our future. We have the power! Try it this week and let me know how you do.
Hope you have a beautiful week.
