 'Think' The Way You Are 'Designed' To Are Our Minds & Bodies Truly Connected?
Here is a better question: Where is the seperation between the mind and body? Answer: THERE IS NO SEPERATION BETWEEN THE MIND AND BODY! It is a mainstream scientific fact that our thoughts, beliefs and emotions (both conscious and sub-conscious) directly and powerfully influence our physical bodies each and every moment of our lives! Fear, anxiety, hate and negativity break our bodies down chemically and we get sick. Love, hope, faith, joy, friendship and community literally build us up and make us strong.
What is your mind focused on throughout the day? Are you focused on positive things like love, health, joy and abundance? Or are you focused on negative things like sickness, war, death, hate, crime and poverty? Do you spend more time worrying about negative things, or do you regularly focus your mind on the positive things that you want to see in the world? Science has already validated that those people who are more positive-focused, have better health and have more control of their lives. Try writing down a description of your "ideal world"- The kind of world you want to see for yourself and all of our children.
What Is The Purpose of Your Life?
Again, science has validated the following: Those people who are more purpose-driven in their approach toward life, have better health and a higher quality of life. Take time to clearly delineate a life-purpose statement for yourself. Then get busy fulfilling your purpose. You'll be healthier and happier as a result.
What Are Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive statements designed to fill your 'mind's eye' with positive images and ideas. Your mind can not hold two thoughts or ideas simultaneously. So, if you fill your mind with positive, there will be NO opportunity for negative. We encourage our patients to make their own affirmations and recite them regularly. Here is the one that Dr. Collins has used. Click here for affirmation
Do You Write Down Your Goals?
The human is 'designed' to be goal-oriented, we MUST have specific goals to be healthy.
Each year, write down goals in the following categories:
1-God/spirituality/life purpose.
2-Abundance/financial/money.
3-Love and relationships.
4-Health.
5-Professional.
6-Personal.
7-Fun and recreation.
For each category write 3 goals, one 'long term' (5 years or longer) and 2 'short term' (completed by end of coming year). Goals can overflow into more than one category. Make sure that each goals is 'S.M.A.R.T.' In other words, each goal must be: Specific, Measurable, they must contain written 'Action steps', they must be Realistic and they must have a specific due date or Time line. Make a habit of writing specific goals and you will change your life for the better!
The best way to write goals is to get 21 sheets of paper (or you can do this on a computer). Each morning, after saying your morning affirmation, quickly write down 3 goals for each of the 7 categories (two short-term, one long-term), take no more than 7 minutes (one minute per category). Then, tear up the page (or hit delete). Do this each morning for 21 straight days. You will see that in the first few days, you can not remember what you wrote down the day before, but slowly over the next 1-2 weeks, certain goals will start repeating themselves over and over. On the 21st day, you will easily be able to write down your 21 goals (3 for each category) and these will be your TRUE goals. Do this every year, if you live in the USA, try to complete this in November, before Thanksgiving. This way, you will 'hit the ground running' in the new year and will already be on your way to completing your goals!
