Hola, All! Today at the book study of "A Course in Miracles" we talked about how powerful all of our thoughts are. Most people think that because our thoughts are in our head and not voiced that they make no difference whatsoever. Nothing can be further from the truth! Science has proven that our thoughts have an immediate impact on our bodies. Everytime we have an unloving thought, whether directed at ourselves or at others, the electrical flow of energy in our bodies is altered. Over time this can create blockages in the flow of energy which in turn creates illnesses in our bodies. When I realized this truth, I started paying alot more attention to the random thoughts in my head. Now when I catch myself thinking unloving thoughts, I immediately say things like 'cancel those thoughts', or 'my higher self rules' or I start singing a song. What I'm really doing is trying to change the direction of my thoughts. Sometimes when my mind is being stubborn and doesn't want to change, I have to start repeating affirmations over and over outloud. One of the positive benefits of paying more attention to my thoughts are that I am having less negative thoughts than before. This, I think, will help me to stay healthy and happy as I get older. I want to encourage you to really pay attention to the thoughts in your mind, and change them when necessary. This isn't easy to do but the payoffs are well worth it.
Chao for now!
