Action Should Have Thought Behind It
Hello World!!
Once again I'm delving into the world of ACTION....this has been my main focal point for my past few blog entries because I have been guilty of wanting to accomplish goals, making plans and strategies and putting forth absolutely ZERO effort into said goals.
For those of you that know me, you know that I am huge into the working of the brain and mind/body connection. Aside from my daughter's neurological disorder I also loved studying Biological Psychology, which integrates the neurological and psychological aspects of the BRAIN.
A psychologist from 1949 Donald Hebb discovered that if we correlate our beliefs, feelings, goals, senses, and actions repeatedly and synergistically our brain will rewire that neurological pulse and fuse together to create habits and even muscle memory. Basically our neurons fire an electric pulse when we feel, think, see or do something and if we put all of those together at the same time it creates a new neurological pathway that is stronger and more durable.
An example of this is when we repeat affirmations to ourselves we can add a movement, motion, a picture or even a scent to reinforce the firing neurons. In the morning look at yourself in the mirror (vision), with scented oils diffusing or a candle lit (scent), hug yourself tightly (action), and repeat "I love you just the way you are". You will not only feel an instant connection within but over time you will feel an immense feeling of self love.
This is something that can greatly help those suffering from low self esteem or depression. Put some thought into your life and your current situation, what would you like to change about yourself? How can you mix your belief, action, and your senses to help you accomplish your goals?
I will keep looking into this topic and use it in my life, and I will keep you all updated on how this is working for me!!
