Use High Energy Word to Change your Conscious Actions

I have learned so much from my children. One of the things that quickly became apparent during the toddler years was that their brains did not hear no or don't. I would say don't run and they heard run. I would say don't splash and they would say splash. Don't bang! You get the idea. I was driving myself crazy and they were not listening. It took about a week to re-program my brain and words, but I stopped telling them what "not" to do and focused on what to do. So I would say "walk", "your fork is for eating", " keep the water in the tub" and so on. What does this have to do with your well being. Well, again you don't hear no. So if you are thinking, don't eat chocolate, don't' drink alcohol, don't order the fries. What happens, you eat the chocolate, with wine and fries!

Instead replace you thinking and words with, I drink water, I choose fresh berries, I enjoy vegetables. It may sound corney - and not as fun as chocolate - which I love too, but you feeling fit is greater feeling than the taste of anything you can consume.

Wise Words
Choosing high-energy words can enhance health and happiness.
Nancy Miller

Have you ever told a small child not to touch something and noticed the response? It’s as if a child’s mind doesn’t compute words such as not and no. Now, what if our adult unconscious mind processed words in the same way? Suddenly, even positive statements take on a reverse, and sometimes, negative meaning. For example, when someone thanks you, and you reply, “No problem,” your unconscious only hears that there’s a problem and goes out to find more. It’s a provocative idea, and one that creates an intriguing premise for the new book Every Word Has Power (Beyond Words Publishing, 2008) by Yvonne Oswald. According to Oswald, our unconscious mind is like the Internet, which recognizes key words in a sentence and responds by reminding you of all the other chains of words, memories and meanings stimulated by each key word. Choosing high-energy words instead of low- energy ones can significantly improve your health and life, contends the author. Here, she tells how to make the switch.

quick tipUse words that include a healthy reason to achieve goals, such as “Fresh fruits and vegetables energize my body” instead of “I’m going on a diet.”

What are some low-energy and high-energy words?Problem, lazy, difficult, hard, worry and failure are all examples of low-energy words. Beauty, welcome, enthusiasm, harmony, joy and success are high-energy words. Change “Don’t worry” to “You’ll be fine,” and your unconscious will shift and believe the good news.What is the “switch”? The switch is a way to clear your self-talk of negative language. Low-energy words, such as hate, hard or worry, stimulate negative emotions in the middle or limbic brain, while high-energy words like joy, fun, laughter and harmony stimulate the cerebral cortex, which is the only place that great results come from. It is like letting the sunshine back into your life.[Ed Note: For more information, visit www.globalwelcome.com.]

Find a “switch” buddy to help change your language. When you or your buddy hears a low-energy word being used, simply say, “Switch!” You will be amazed at how many low-energy words you use every day. It’s easier to hear someone else’s words than your own at first.

End

Begin practicing better self talk. Your confidence will raise to a whole new level and so will your outcomes.
