Positive thoughts to help manage stress
Repeat when you are feeling low – this does help!
This day is yours – CREATE a beautiful one for yourself and those around you.
THINK before you speak. Take a breath and it will spark your intellect.
Remember words are sharper than any knife and they pierce the heart.
Take THIS opportunity to tell someone you love or appreciate him or her.
Make these moments of value and the worth of your actions will ultimately bounce back to benefit you! It always works… The things you think and the way you breathe ultimately become your life and health. YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF WHERE YOU GO FROM HERE.
Breathe and think positively. Teach your brain to create those “cell impressions” from which you can empower yourself simply through your thoughts. Ultimately, if you are consistent, your body physiology will be changed for the good.
Put aside any doubt and release any tendency to “make things work out” or to force an outcome. Open your thoughts and your life to the source of all intelligence and let go of worry.
As you use your oxygen – inhale deeply through the nose, and exhale through the mouth. Do both slowly. As you inhale, think:
“I am energizing and relaxing myself by doing this.” As you exhale, think: “All the wasted worry is flying from my mouth with this exhalation.”
Worry changes nothing for the better. The only thing worry does is increase in increments and cause more worry, more problems, and affect us physically in a negative manner. HONEST!
Spend time on thoughts that are positive and quality and you will draw those things to you. Be mindful of your oxygen intake, and as you exhale send all those negative thoughts into oblivion.
What memories of the past have no validity in life for you except in a learning capacity. . You can recall the wonderful moments, but let the bad ones go. The future is the “hope for the best”. The moments you have are now. Make them of value to you and those around you.
Stop to smell the flowers. Love your life and the challenges that are presented to you! For those negative incidents remember that “this too shall pass”.
If you feel you need more stress management help – seek it out. There is a world of help and suggestions on line. You can meditate, pray, take yoga, even giving yourself a ten minute time out will be beneficial to you.
Elevate your feet. Use your oxygen and remember: As you THINK, so shall you become. Truth never changes.
