Doctors and scientists now firmly believe that 75% of all sickness and disease starts in the mind. Researchers have also proven that stress, which starts in the mind, is the number one cause of all fatigue and illness. Scientists have also proven that we only use 10% of our mind. The rest is never used properly. That means 10% of our mind is causing 75% of all sickness -- and we don't even know how to use that 10% properly. Imagine what would happen if we used our mind to it's fullest? We would stop getting sick and live healthier, more productive lives. Here are some suggestions to create health & wellbeing in your life courtesy of The Confidence Clinic.
MIND - Attitude of Gratitude: Start each day being grateful for all the blessings in your life. Create a mental list or write it down in a gratitude journal & watch your focus change.
- Positive focus: Focus on the 80% that is working in your life.
- Simplify, Simplify, Simplify
- Mindfulness: being fully present, not thinking about something in the past or future but what is happening in the present moment.
- Thought awareness: Become aware of what you are thinking, then consciously focus your thoughts on whatever it is you want to create in your life (i.e., peace, harmony, cooperation, sharing). Thoughts become things, choose good ones!
- Flexibility of the mind. Keep the mind active. Do something regularly that will challenge your mind
BODY - More whole grains, lean proteins, fruits and vegetables, less sugar, fats, and processed foods.
- Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate! (water hydrates, soft drinks and coffee do not).
- Read Labels: know what you are putting in your body.
- Sleep. Be sure to get enough.
- Exercise everyday. You brush your teeth and shower everyday, move your body everyday too. The results will be remarkable.
- Lift weights, milk bottles or soup cans. Lift whatever you can to strengthen your bones.
- Stretch. Try a yoga class or stretch on your own. A flexible body is less prone to injury. I’ve seen plenty of Seniors regain flexibility in a matter of weeks. I particularly remember one woman’s excitement when she was able to touch her toes for the first time in 25 years! It sure makes putting your socks on easier.
SPIRIT - Nourish your soul regularly. What would truly make your heart sing and bring you true joy? Figure it out and do it.
- Spend time everyday in prayer or meditation or just sit quietly and listen to your inner wisdom.
- Laughter. Find the funny side of things. Laughter is like a massage for your soul.
- Practice random acts of kindness.
- Challenge yourself. Get out of your comfort zone and do something you’ve never done but always wanted to do. Maybe its skydiving, or riding on a motorcycle down the Pacific Coast Highway, or volunteering in a third world country. I’ve done them all, and recommend them all. Courage expands your life.
- Be kind and gentle with yourself. Remember others will love you to the degree you love yourself. Also, your strengths and magnificence are far greater than any perceived failings.
