Affirmations

The power of thoughts, more so when they are voiced. Considering words are created from thought which comes from a belief, or what is being read, recited or impersonating.

It is possible to change a belief by hearing or running the same program often enough. 'Normality' is created when we hear, see or do things often enough and creating an ingrained neural path. This is great, and just what we want when we choose to create healthy thought patterns, but the same happens with the negative.

This is how complacency can occur because we become conditioned or neutral to the situation. Not always healthy, and the body feels it by out of balance or out of sync or the latest buzz word - our of alignment with our true selves. Mis-alignment triggers body stress, turning to symptoms and if ignored long enough disease.

Fortunately, we can disrupt the process and come back into alignment with conscious effort, or faster using energetic circuit changes such as Kinesiology, Rieki, Bars, EFT, NLP and of course, Hypnotherapy.

Affirmations is a support process which helps to reinforce the changes created during the energy changes. They are constant reminders. Affirmations can be used alone, but change is created faster when combined with Belief change, Anchors and Visualisation.

In a nutshell, more we say something, the sooner the sub-conscious brain will internalise it, say it with passion, and images it is faster still. Adding affirmations to a clean slate after the belief and memory has been transformed, faster again. Convinced yet that a combined, thorough approach is powerful?

The Queen of Affirmations would have to be Louise Hay, who created a comprehensive list of affirmations for almost all aliments, and guided further research into the associations between our self perception, self beliefs and conditions.  Her book You Can Heal your Life was written more than several decades ago and is still used as a primary text for health change.

Beliefs can be our two edge sword!

15/1/2019

Belief, by definition from my old school dictionary (circa 1981) is:
- The feeling or confidence that something is real, true or worthwhile or
- something which is taught or accepted as true.
Based on this definition it is easy to see how influencing beliefs are and how challenging they can be to move if needed. in summary, beliefs are the meanings we give to situations or people and are our expectations of how things should be.

Beliefs can be created at any stage of our life, but it is generally accepted our core beliefs are created by the age of 7. Which means parents, significant adults, siblings, early school, school in general, sporting clubs/activities, friends and peers.

We can become aware of our beliefs with curiosity and mindfulness. When things are not going the way we expect, or we experience big emotions either positive or negative, we can see our beliefs playing out.

When we feel the negative, generally our expectations, hopes, wishes are being violated or not being met. Think of the times when people have let down, disappointed or things haven't worked out and recall the thoughts and the emotions that have come up with this.

Now, think of when things have worked well and all is in good order, are you happier, more joyful because they are meeting your expectation and things are as they should be?

"Expectation is the mother of all frustration. " Antonio Blanca Banderas

High expectations of self can also be a double edge sword, but can certainly give us incentives to move towards goals, the challenge is to keep the expectations slightly out of comfortable reach to help us stretch.

Expectations of others are best to be monitored to encourage them to be the best people they can be, and be honest if you are ok with them who they are. After all, we can only control our own response and reactions.

Limiting beliefs are those that hold us back, and limit our progress generally due to fear, thinking we are not good enough, deserving or lovable, but at the core of this is the belief on not being good enough. This is where it gets tough, because we all want to be loved and be accepted, and have pleasure in life.

Trauma - when we give life situation a powerful meaning!

14/1/2019

0 Comments

 
Trauma, by definition is a "deeply distressing or disturbing experience" or "physical injury".  Tell me how many people haven't experienced traumatic experiences of different severity?   The next question to ask, who gets to define if your interpretation of a situation makes it traumatic, or not?  The only person qualified is yourself as you are the one that lived it, and you are the one that gave the situation weight.   

Think about this.....  two children (from the same parents) are playing in the yard, one tends to have the dare-devil streak and the other seemed to be born more reserved and cautious.  Are either children wrong or inferior because of their make up?  NO!  Lets take it another step. 

At one time a playful dog came into the yard and approached from behind the reserved child and started barking with excitement.  Now, this is where it gets interesting.  The dare devil child was more than happy to play with the dog and tumble with it.   This little was was more adventurous to begin with and also saw the dog coming.   The reserved child however received a shock when the dog barked and bounced on him, because he didn't see or hear it coming.   Two different interpretations from seemingly similar situations.  Yes, one child saw the dog coming, and the other didn't. Consider though what the children FELT and interpreted from the experience.  The more reserved child from that time was always on edge and anxious around dogs, more so when they barked, and other child just loved dogs all the more and couldn't see the problem of his friend.   Though he wanted to encourage his friend to be ok  with dogs, he would also tease his friend when he pulled away from dogs. 

So, what has happened?
There are two parts playing out.  First is the person's nature  they are born with, the second is the meaning the children associated with the situation.  The reserved child was shocked and with the release of adrenaline flooding his body the cells were primed for the fear, flight and fight response.
