positive words for Wednesday

Positive words for Wednesday: These positive thought are free. You become what you think so please take more than one inside your consciousness. Building an affirmation practice is simple. Choose one that resonates. Set yourself up for quiet sitting. I have some set up tips on my CD, along side with a very easy breath meditation. Once you are focused, that is, once the loudness of the thinking rain is quieted, use your affirmation like a mantra to build positivity and train your brain instead of being sidetracked by it or sabotaged. Really, when you think of all the thoughts you have, if you can’t get to a totally zen place in a quiet meditation, at least replace old and tired thoughts with positive words.

Eventually, the positive vibes will help you just BE, natural, comfortable and your best version of yourself. That is pretty good. Think I will hashtag this #WisdomWednesday. Join me.

Positive words for Wednesday: These positive thought are free:

I communicate with love

Every moment is a profound opportunity

Consider How Very Fortunate You Are

Give yourself the gift of being joyfully you

Complain less, breathe more

Be a part of life, not afraid of it

Make the choice to let go of negative thoughts

Let Be, Let Go, Let see, Let flow

You are a walking, breathing wonder

You have a beautiful soul

Give thanks for another day of loving

 

 

Yoga and Optimism – It’s in the mind

Trying to force positivity may not work, but consistent yoga practice can certainly make you more resilient and prone to looking for the silver lining. Yoga is a mindfulness practice in itself, which science shows, changes brain chemistry…Try my 5 minute mindfulness retreat exercise and test it out!

“After eight hours of mindfulness practice, the meditators showed a range of genetic and molecular differences, including altered levels of gene-regulating machinery and reduced levels of pro-inflammatory genes, which in turn correlated with faster physical recovery from a stressful situation.

Ah! Feeling Good

Some days, my yoga practice makes me feel smooth, kind of like gliding, and I realize that whatever is going on, I am actually feeling “good” and then it just becomes an overall positive day. Wishing you the same ~ a unity of mind/body/spirit 🙂

This is a lovely reminder to do something, even if you just take a walk, eat something fresh, sit and breathe, just to do something that nurtures that ‘feel good’ , wholesome, healthy feeling energy

So, it is definitely the season where everyone I speak with wants a new wardrobe, people are tired of winter (here anyway) and a few folks I know are just plain waiting for new energy to take over their lives. So today, let’s breathe for renewal.  Sit tall, take the hands into prayer pose, inhale as you take the arms overhead, exhale as you bring the arms down and the hands back to prayer pose.  Try this 10 times.  Renew.  Re-energize. Refresh.
