Positive Thinking - Think positive

by Ernest Vinaya Kumar

If you want to live longer, be happy, healthy and successful, all you have to do is tell yourself that you can do it by tapping the healing
forces within.
There is no greater joy than a healthy, positive life. You feel exhilarated, energetic, happy and on top of the world. A sense of total well
being permeates your mind. The future looks bright. You feel good to be alive. 

Great, but how do we get out of our innumerable worries, tensions and fears that the increasingly competitive life burdens us with? Simple!
Tell yourself that you are good, healthy and capable. That is the power of positive affirmations. 

Such affirmations are also called self-suggestions. It is a powerful tool for transforming your inner self into an amazing health generating,
self-healing entity. You can record these affirmations on a tape synchronized with pleasant instrumental music and replay them often to
make them more effective and permanent.

SELF-INDOCTRINATION

Psychology says that our mind controls our body. So, taking charge of your mind becomes a vital factor in keeping your body healthy. You
can do this through affirmations that establish the power of your mind. Try: "With the power of positive thinking I now take charge of my
body to maintain perfect health, strength and happiness unconditionally, now and always, so be it." When you repeat this, the misleading
programs of your mind will be erased. 

It is said that we are never given a wish without the power to fulfill it. Each person is capable of programming his own mind to achieve what
he desires. You can tap this capability by following a few simple steps. But before you begin, make yourself totally relaxed and be
consciously willing to adopt the method.

Attuning yourself with nature guarantees an overall healthy life. To modify this statement into an affirmation, say: "I attune myself with
nature to stay healthy now and forever."

You can have the right kind of food by affirming: "I can attract healthy food to keep myself fit, healthy and strong, everyday."

You can develop the habit of exercising your body and mind by affirming: "I can easily get up early in the morning everyday to exercise and
keep fit and cheerful."

In case you are an insomniac, all you have to do is repeat: "I can relax into sound sleep now and wake up revitalized, alert, bright and
cheerful early in the morning. It is done. So be it."

Sometimes, social influences play their part in either inducing or encouraging negative thinking. This is the stage where most doctors give up
the case as incurable. So, to find the right doctor, suggest mentally to yourself: "I will locate the right doctor who can cure me completely in
a simple, easy and positive way, now and always."

Your health problems can be dissolved by affirming: "I can now dissolve all my health problems, worries and fears easily, quickly and
successfully in simple, easy and positive ways. So be it." 

MAGNETIC RELAXATION

Unlike sleeping, magnetic relaxation requires you to be physically at rest but subconsciously alert. When your conscious mind is relaxed, the
positive suggestions seep into your subconscious. To achieve maximum benefit from relaxation:

Sit in a comfortable chair or lie down on a bed.


Let go of all the tension by repeating to yourself: "I can now relax comfortably. I can now relax my body. I can now relax my mind. Easily,
quickly and positively. Now I can enjoy the state of alert relaxation peacefully."
Let a feeling of soothing comfort take over.
Let go of yourself totally. Feel a universal healing energy surrounding you and getting absorbed into your body and mind.
Feel a cool breeze around your body. Visualize a white sparkling light pouring through your head down your body and seeping deep within
you.
Think that soothing and healing forces are vibrating within and radiating from you.
Maintain a positive and peaceful state of mind during the session. Also, take precautions that you are not disturbed.
Mentally repeat to yourself: "Day by day in every way I'm getting better and better and better."
MAGNETIC ABSORPTION

The subconscious has the knowledge, power, wisdom and understanding to heal and maintain perfect health. It is the interference of
negative suggestions that causes ill health and weakness. So, whenever you feel that something is not right, use affirmations to get back on
the right track. Here is a simple one that can be absorbed into your subconscious to keep your body fit: "Attuned with universal healing
powers and the source of life, all my body organs are now becoming normal and fit, and they will function perfectly to maintain excellent
health, strength and vitality up to a great age."

USING THE SUBCONSCIOUS

The subconscious mind is perfectly programmed with a survival package in the form of universal instincts that can be synchronized with
conscious programs to live in harmony. Accepting your subconscious instincts relieves you of half of your health problems.

The subconscious is always receptive to suggestions that transpire from your conscious mind. So keep your conscious mind filled with
creative, positive, pleasant, peaceful and productive thoughts. When you repeat an affirmation in a relaxed state of mind, it works wonders.
To retain these suggestions, repeat them often, till you feel confident that they have become a permanent habit.

The subconscious mind is an all-powerful, omnipresent and omniscient gift. Peace will prevail in your life when these conditions are
maintained. So, affirm often: "I most willingly accept healthy, happy and self-healing success programs of my subconscious mind consciously
for total fitness, now and always."

It is easy to program your subconscious to integrate your inner healing power into a self-healing force. All that you aspire for will come to
pass. New friends, new relationships, new ideas, new thoughts and new plans can motivate you to become a powerful optimist. So affirm:
"Today I am a new, dynamic, and optimistic futurist flooded with positive thoughts of successful self-healing."

VITAL LIFE ENERGY

Magnetic energy plays a vital role in self-healing. The more energy you generate through eating, breathing and exercising, the longer you
will live with health and happiness. It is said that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of his mouth. When
we speak to ourselves in positive terms, we tend towards self-healing. We can build up positive statements like:

I am healing myself positively. Positive energy is keeping me healthy. Healing myself and others is easy for me. I have the positive habit of
deep breathing. Today I am feeling better than ever before. Tomorrow I am going to be perfectly all right.

FEEL YOUNG, LIVE LONGER

Age is an attitude of the mind. When you think youthful, you feel youthful. Energy can also be enhanced by being active, alert and awake
most of the time.

In my experimentation with autosuggestion, I feel that new frontiers can be explored in the process of evolution. Some of them are:

Assert firmly to reverse aging. Take it as a challenge.

Use the countdown method to feel young and energetic after 50. Subtract the number of years that you are over 50 from 50 and affirm that
age constantly. For example, if you are 55, all that you have to do is to count downwards the years of your age by subtracting five from 50
and imagine that you are 45. Now build up positive magnetic statement like: "Today I am 45 years young."

The second phase is to regain the natural color and abundance of youthful hair on your head. But consistent practice coupled with firm
determination is required on your part. You can begin the practice right now by affirming: "I am determined to regain all the hair on my
head with its natural youthful color as soon as possible." Mentally repeat it 21 times just before you go to sleep at night.

SELF-HEALING IN SEVEN DAYS

The magnetic self-healing schedule that follows is an invincible method that can take you to the height of perfect health, strength and
happiness. After practicing it for a period of seven days you will find that all your past health problems automatically disappear. The
watchword here is consistency. All that you have to do is read the affirmations as soon as you get up in the morning and before going to
sleep. It has cured me. It can do the same for you. Now read the following:

I'm relaxed, my body is relaxed.


My mind is relaxed, my emotions are relaxed.
I am now totally relaxed.
I am getting better, stronger and happier forever. 

Now make yourself comfortable. Read the affirmation given below focusing your eyes in a half-closed manner as if you are reading it half
asleep.

Hold your breath comfortably and read each statement twice. Relax after reading it. Don't hurry. Don't worry. You will see the difference
from the very first day. After you practice the magnetic affirmations for seven days, let go of it. You can always come back to the seven-day
program whenever you feel the need. You can mentally repeat each affirmation for the whole day but remember to hold your breath while
doing so. Now repeat:

My body and mind are clean and energetic. I love my body.


Today I am becoming strong, powerful, dynamic, happy-go-lucky and attractive.
Today I can choose to take total interest in regaining perfect health successfully.
Today I assert, affirm and relax with total freedom to heal myself with the power of thought.
Today I am on the way to recovery easily, quickly and successfully to become healthy, happy and free. Today I have regained normalcy with
the power of positive thought successfully.
Today health and energy are vibrating and radiating from me. 
Do it for seven days at a stretch and discover the new, optimistic you who can take anything in his stride. It only takes a little belief and a
little determination to change your life.
