Instructions
To maintain a positive attitude, start each day with a smile. Smile at your reflection. This will charge you with positivity for the whole day. If you are sad, tired or exhausted, angry or irritated, try simply smiling. Through external changes, internal ones can also come.
Your mood directly depends on your thoughts. If you are immersed in sad thoughts, scolding yourself or thinking about some situation in a negative way, naturally you cannot be in a good mood. Follow your stream of consciousness. There are many practices to control your thoughts. Master a few of them and maintain a positive attitude with the right thoughts.
To maintain a positive attitude, treat yourself every day. Make pleasant purchases, visit beauty salons, watch interesting films and read fascinating books. Any little thing can affect your mood. Therefore, try to make sure that at the end of the day there are many more pros than cons.
After one difficult task, do not rush to immediately take on another. Give yourself time to rest. For example, when you come home from work, you shouldn’t immediately do housework. Take a quarter of an hour for relaxation. Turn on some nice music, relax, do some stretching, or drink a cup of tea.
To maintain a positive attitude, say nice things to people and give compliments. If you are friendly towards others, your mood will be high. Call your loved ones, chat with friends. Get positive from others.
Hello, dear readers of Valery Kharlamov’s blog! A positive attitude allows a person to easily overcome life's troubles; it motivates and inspires, makes you happy, makes you happy and makes you feel better. People who are able to see beauty and positivity even in small things experience much more satisfaction in life than pessimists.
Top techniques
1. Morning practices
When you open your eyes in the morning, what happens first? Are you upset that it’s already morning and you haven’t been able to get enough sleep? Or is it time to go to work? Maybe you immediately grab your phone to find out news about events that happened while you were sleeping?
If any of the above takes place, then think about where a good mood comes from? How to draw energy from painful and sad thoughts? Where does the excitement and interest in how today will turn out and what new things it will bring come from?
So, make it a rule, when you wake up, to tell yourself something good that will make you smile and want to get out of bed. Such a mandatory morning appointment for necessary procedures, such as breakfast, brushing your teeth or taking a shower.
If you don’t know where to start, try these phrases: “Today is an amazing day, and I believe that something good will happen to me. Thank you to the Universe (Jesus, Allah, in general, who or what I want to thank) for the opportunity to see the sun’s rays, hug loved ones, smell my favorite bun and, in general, for the fact that I am alive and can enjoy this day.”
Then, in front of the mirror, repeat the affirmations to give you confidence in your abilities, set yourself up for success, and so on. This will only enhance the effect. If you don’t know what kind of method this is, then it’s okay, take a look.
2. Endorphins
Hormones of joy will significantly improve your mood. And you can get them by eating a piece of chocolate or playing sports. It is not recommended to abuse chocolate, otherwise the effect may be exactly the opposite, especially for women, when extra pounds accumulate, unless, of course, they are undesirable.
The best way to increase the level of these hormones is running, with its help you will also relieve tension, cope with anxiety and anger, so then, during relaxation, you will experience pleasant sensations, as well as pride in having completed the workout. And an additional bonus will be a fit figure and good health.
By the way, the main thing is not to overdo it, so as not to weaken yourself and completely deprive yourself of energy. If for some reason you can’t run, go to the pool, the effect is the same, plus take the extra load off your spine by floating on your back.
3. "Talismans"
Surround yourself with things that bring laughter, joy and other good feelings. Let's say, buy a funny cup, a calendar with your favorite cats or ferrets, put a frame with a photo in a prominent place where you are depicted happy... It is important that when you look around, you feel the urge to smile.
The more often you remember pleasant situations, the more often you will experience tenderness, touching, etc. As soon as you notice that you have stopped responding, replace the photos with more recent ones, or, conversely, from the archive, then, by telling your guests the story of their creation, you will relive that moment that is so significant for you.
4. Positive attitude
Set yourself the task of finding positive, resourceful moments even in unpleasant events. Yes, life is complicated and constantly throws up surprises; no one in this world can afford to relax, being sure that nothing bad will happen to him. Stress and problems are constant daily companions of a living person. Yes, exactly alive, so when coping with one difficulty, rest assured that a new one will arise a little later.
And the difference between optimists and pessimists is how they approach their lives. You can even find the reason for a good mood in a drop of morning dew, just as you can be upset when you receive a gift that is not what you wanted. It is our attitude towards any events that determines the level of satisfaction with life.
Therefore, if you are used to devaluing, exaggerating and exaggerating, ask yourself why you need this? Why exactly did you decide to complicate your life? After which, in some cases even forcibly, sit down and write down at least 10 points, where you indicate the resources and opportunities that the past day has presented.
Even if you found out that your loved one betrayed you, would it be better to continue living with him, not suspecting that he does not value you or what he is capable of? Learn to transform events into positive ones, then over time, you will do this unconsciously, changing your attitude towards life itself.
5. Will Bowen Method
It consists in the fact that on the 21st day a person refuses criticism, negativity, complaints, quarrels, etc. He will have to control himself every time when, out of habit, he wants to be rude or shout. So, first come up with an incentive that motivates you to fulfill the conditions of this technique, and then put a bracelet on your hand. The description of the exercise says that the bracelet should be purple, but I want to note that this is not so important.
Instead, focus on changing your outlook and thinking by starting to appreciate every moment. If you do break the rules by lashing out at a child, a colleague, an unfamiliar salesperson in a store, or simply thinking about something bad, move this bracelet to the other hand and reset the result, even if you managed to withstand 20 days, then start the countdown again.
6. Make yourself happy every day
Otherwise, you will lose the taste of life, experiencing only stress. Even if you have to save on everything, allow yourself to buy at least some little thing, without putting it off until later, in case I suddenly pay off my debts, or earn a lot, a lot, and then... If you don’t have free time, find at least half an hour to do something desirable, not just useful and necessary. Live here and now, and not in the past or dreams of the future, this is very important.
So, after finishing reading the article, think about what you want at the moment, and go get it. Then a good mood will be guaranteed. It’s just important to take into account the reality of realizing a desire, it won’t work out like that and end up on the other side of the world, but it’s easy to rejoice like a child, kicking fallen leaves with your feet, or drinking a cup of delicious coffee. An article about how will help you.
7. Surround yourself with fun people
Then you will unconsciously learn from them their experience of responding to different situations. Yes, sometimes we simply don’t know how to react to some event, and then we choose the usual way. But this is what other people in our lives are for, to help us find a more attractive and optimal way, to teach something and “open” our eyes to the obvious.
8. Humor
Train not only your brain, but also your sense of humor, especially if you lack it. You can do this by reading jokes, funny stories, stories. Switching attention to positive events relaxes, and laughter relieves tension, in some cases helping with painful sensations. Jokes with friends and loved ones, just be careful in using sarcasm so as not to ruin your relationship.
9. Smile
Psychology is an interesting science that has discovered that a person is able to influence his well-being with the help of quite simple techniques, for example, a smile. Yes, by smiling, you will “reconfigure” your consciousness to the positive, involuntarily starting to really experience pleasant emotions. You can learn more about such processes from the article.
10. Memories
Close your eyes and imagine some episode from your life when you were happy. Try to reproduce all the nuances, remember the sensations and thoughts that arose at that moment. Even in therapy with couples who are in crisis on the verge of divorce, they offer a similar exercise.
But because it is effective and allows you to “get out of the mezzanine” long-forgotten knowledge about yourself, moments that previously gave you courage and allowed you to believe in good things. Therefore, couples, talking about how they met, got to know each other, what captivated them about each other, and so on, relive the emotions that arose 5-10 or even 30 years ago.
Conclusion
And that’s all for today, dear readers! Always being positive is difficult, but quite possible, just don’t forget that you have one life, and spending it thinking only about problems is too wasteful. Luck favors people who are able to notice and appreciate it. So wish you success, achievements and, of course, good mood!

It is well known that the quality of our mood (joyful or gloomy) and attitude towards ourselves and the world around us (optimistic, tolerant, kind or, conversely, pessimistic, unenvious, envious, grouchy) determines our physical health. And it is often the cause of a negative mood and attitude towards oneself and the world around us, and is the cause of many diseases. Therefore, a positive attitude is very important for the health of the body.
Positive thoughts produce the same thoughts in the people around you and attract them to you, while negative thoughts act in the opposite way, pushing them away from you. It is more pleasant and useful for you to be attractive, so develop only positive attractive thoughts, which, together with your positive magnetism, will give you greater influence on people.
Uproot all negative thoughts associated with hatred, fear, sadness, anger, dissatisfaction, resentment, envy, mistrust, etc., and replace them with positive ones associated with love, courage, joy, calm, contentment, goodwill, etc. .d.
As you think about others, others think about you. The way you think about yourself is the way those around you think about you. Therefore, think only positively about yourself and others.
You don't like others or you think that others don't like you and won't love you. You are afraid of everyone and everything, and you will be intimidated. You don't believe in yourself, and they won't trust you. You don’t wish anyone well, and they won’t wish it for you. The thoughts of those around you strive to meet your every thought and increase the power of your thoughts. Never think: “I can’t.” Everyone will think you can't. Always think: “I can, I want and will achieve what I want” - and you will really be able to do everything.
Great people become great because they wanted to be so, but they were the same as you: everyone is born “little” people.
Don't forget that thoughts affect you - your spirit and body. What are the thoughts, such is the person. There are cases where those who are passionate and tirelessly read crime novels later became criminals. Therefore, avoid books filled with negative thoughts.
Negative thoughts are spiritual poison, and positive thoughts are the antidote. Thoughts of hatred, envy, fear, sadness, etc. excite dangerous physiological processes in our body that have a harmful, most detrimental effect on our health. On the contrary, thoughts of love, goodwill, joy, etc. improve mental state and have a beneficial effect on the body.
Consequently, negative thoughts poison the body, positive ones heal. This is why we should love our neighbor as ourselves, because, in essence, by loving others, we love ourselves, we wish ourselves goodness and well-being. By developing positive thoughts in yourself, you develop the same magnetism and good willpower in yourself, because before you can think well, you need to want to think so.
Thus, with positive thinking, all 3 aspects of strong influence on people develop: magnetism, the power of thought and the power of good will.
Therapeutic effect:
strengthens the nervous system;
Healthy mood before and after sleep
The second sacrament (the first sacrament is eating) should be preparation for bed and entering sleep. This is important for both the physical and mental state of a person.
During sleep, our “I” resides in such a spiritual (astral) world that corresponds to our mood before sleep, and returns “impregnated” with its specific mental element, which imparts strength or weakness, well-being or disorder to the body. The mood of concern, grumpiness, envy contributes to the presence of the “I” in the sphere of concern; upon awakening this concern intensifies. The mindset towards illness (thoughts about illness) takes the “I” into the world of suffering, and this increases suffering in daily life. Therefore, before going to bed, the patient should think about health and repeat:
“Only the tool I use is damaged. I am what I think about myself.
My spiritual self is healthy and will bring healing to my body during sleep.”
This needs to be repeated every evening; if the result does not appear immediately, then you need to think about changing your thinking style to a positive one. The mood for a state of youth and strength directs the “I” to the corresponding spheres of the astral world; upon emerging from sleep, the body and confidence in its state of strength and youth are strengthened.
To make the above clear, some clarification is necessary. According to the yogis, a person, in addition to the “I,” consists of bodies: the physical body, the etheric body, the astral body (the body of desires), the mental body (the body of thought), the body of causality (the causal body).
The energy of each body differs in quality from the others, and each body, as it were, permeates with itself, being more subtle, more gross.
The physical body consists of a huge number of cells, each of which performs two tasks - it maintains its own existence, and part of itself is devoted to maintaining the entire organism as a whole (cell specialization). A complex of homogeneous cells is built into a tissue or even into an entire organism. All organs are penetrated by a group of control cells, cells that provide respiratory or nutritional function. Each cell lives a certain period of life, then either dies, like blood cells, or divides.
Despite all this, the body constantly maintains its shape and structure. This process of preservation is carried out by the etheric body.
The etheric body is an exact copy of the physical body; it seems to contain a permanent form of the body. Within the etheric body is the astral, or body of emotions and desires.
The mental body builds a plan for our activities throughout our lives, a reasonable structure of behavior. Within the mental body is the body of causes.
During sleep, our astral body leaves the physical and begins to travel in invisible space, fulfilling those desires that were not realized during the day, and thereby freeing itself from internal energy tension.
In a dream, desires (especially desires that take possession of a person before sleep) and mood control a person. At the same time, he sees events, but cannot influence them.
From the above, it is clear that before going to bed you need to avoid unpleasant and minor conversations, showdowns and sad thoughts. On the contrary, you need all available means - a walk before bed, relaxation (usual relaxation with optimistic self-hypnosis in the form of autogenic training), listening to beautiful life-affirming music, memories of beautiful and happy moments in your life, a short conversation with a good person with whom you have a mutual connection sympathy - tune in to the feeling of being a person, and a person, in principle, happy, strong enough and young (despite any age).
And when you wake up, you need to connect your consciousness to the single life of the Universe and ask for your share of everything living from the World Mind. In the Universe, all living things are one (trees, clouds, oceans, birds, stars, sun), everything has energy.
Our soul, in a certain mood (especially in the morning), has the ability to attract part of this living force and retain it throughout the day. The verbal form of the request is arbitrary, the main thing is the meaning. And during your daily life you need to repeat this request for 1-2 minutes, no matter how busy you are. The resulting forces go not only to tonify and rejuvenate the body, but also enable our “I” to penetrate as deeply as possible into the astral world in a dream. The further the “I” penetrates into the astral world, the more refined emotions the “I” brings with it, ennobling the body and soul (if, of course, there was a positive attitude before going to bed).
If you can't fall asleep right away:
Take 5-7 full yoga breaths (after removing the pillow so that the torso and head are in one straight line);
imagine that as you inhale, prana passes through the respiratory organs into the solar plexus (Ma-nipura chakra) and accumulates there;
along with the exhalation, every cell of the body relaxes and at the same time prana is directed from the solar plexus into each cell in order to strengthen its vitality and help cleanse it of toxins;
then relax your whole body and brain (free yourself from thoughts); this can be done with the help of Shav-asana.
Therapeutic effect:
increases vitality;
strengthens the nervous system;
awakens the body's defenses.
Worldview of childhood
Many people, having committed actions that are unpleasant for themselves and those around them, or have made some serious miscalculations in one or another area of life, for a long time later remember and experience all the nuances of these actions, miscalculations, and mistakes.
And despite the fact that all this happened in the past, it darkens the present life, gloomy thoughts interfere with life, reduce the level of positive thinking in the present. Of course, as they say, you learn from mistakes, and you need to analyze your mistakes, but you need to do this only once, and then try to forget the unpleasant weight in your life and enjoy life, the very process of life, as children know how to do. Tell yourself:
“It is enough that the unpleasant constantly reminds itself of itself in the environment. Why will I cherish and cultivate the unpleasant in myself? Put aside all the unpleasant things in the past and present, I enjoy life, the very process of life.”
Sometimes a person, complaining about the many worries in his life, about the many unpleasant aspects of his life, exclaims: “Oh, if only I could become a child again!” This is the dream of many people. They want not so much to free themselves from their many worries, but rather to feel the joy of life, because everyday worries have forgotten how people can enjoy life and feel happy.
A special meditation, which can be called “Joy of Life,” helps an adult return to the wonderful worldview of childhood and learn to enjoy life again.
The “Joy of Life” meditation is performed as follows.
Starting position: standing, arms along the body.
Execution:
Imagine a sunny, bright blue sky. It's the end of May and it has just rained. The air is clear and fresh.
We happily look at the beautiful sky, at the branches of trees with young leaves. There are still drops of rain hanging on the flowers. We touch these drops with our lips and feel their taste. How you want to spread your arms, throw back your head, and, pushing off from the ground, fly over the wet meadow with a laugh of joy and happiness.
Let's take off! And we bathe in the gentle light of the sun. We're landing. Let's stand up straight. Above us is the condensing sunlight, a cloud of sparkling golden solar energy, very subtle, gentle, loving. Let it thicken even more over your head.
Let's open up to her! Let us desire to merge with her with our whole being, let us allow her to fill our body. We feel how it flows into the head from above.
Therapeutic effect:
tones the body's defenses;
strengthens the nervous system;
increases vitality.
Creating positive character traits
A person’s thoughts, feelings and actions are interconnected: physical action is accompanied by certain emotions and thoughts, and, conversely, thoughts and emotions cause certain actions or a corresponding body position and facial expression.
An independent appearance, straightened shoulders lead to an uplift of spirit and vigor, a depressed appearance and drooping shoulders lead to a depressed state. To correct your character, you need not only to do special exercises - meditate, but also, as preliminary measures before starting meditation, to harmonize thoughts, emotions and actions, directing them towards a specific goal.
Let's say you have weak willpower and are timid. Your first step will be to direct your actions, feelings and thoughts towards one goal.
Action:
raise your head,
straighten your shoulders
speak loudly, clearly, slowly,
look into the eyes of your interlocutor. Feelings:
try to feel strong and determined.
Thoughts:
Imagine yourself as a determined, energetic, self-confident person.
Confident gestures will evoke corresponding emotions, which, in turn, will influence the course of thoughts. In turn, the content of thoughts will be strengthened by emotions, which will affect actions, actions, and change appearance.
Thus, each element of the chain of action is decisive and self-confident.
We add the influence of emotions and actions to the work of thought, taking into account the relationship of the chain of thoughts - emotions - actions:
simultaneously with pronouncing phrases, we mentally imagine what we want (we imagine that we already have the desired quality);
then, in the process of pronouncing phrases, we give the mental image an emotional coloring (we try to evoke in ourselves the feeling that a person with the corresponding quality experiences).
Therapeutic effect:
increases vitality;
Getting rid of the habit of negative thinking and cultivating optimism
Be optimistic and avoid gloomy thoughts, remembering that as our thoughts are, so is our position in this world. Gloomy negative thoughts attract people with the same thoughts to us and attract corresponding circumstances.
People who have the habit of thinking gloomily refer to concerns about their safety and the safety of their loved ones, about their financial situation.
Regarding your safety, you need to tell yourself the following:
“I trust my higher self, it not only leads me along the path of spiritual growth, but also provides me with complete security in this life.”
And in fact, when a person loves himself and, being in a state of inner freedom, opens up to joy, peace, healing, life circumstances develop in such a way that the described situations are excluded.
If you are afraid of being unemployed or homeless, remind yourself that any negative circumstances for you are generated by your negative inner beliefs.
It is within your power to replace negative beliefs with positive ones, and in this case, circumstances will develop in such a way that you will not be left without work and without a home.
If you are worried about the problem of your financial support, you need to tell yourself that this problem can be solved. You need to allow yourself to allow wealth into your life, using positive statements like:
“Every day my income is increasing and increasing.”
To get rid of the habit of negative thinking, choose any image that pleases you, with which you can replace negative thoughts at any time. It could be a beautiful landscape, a bouquet of flowers, a view of a beautiful lake, etc.
When a dark, negative thought appears, say to yourself:
“I won’t think about this anymore. It’s more pleasant for me to think about a bouquet of flowers, about a beautiful landscape” - and let the said image appear before your inner gaze.
Don't worry about getting old. And in old age, a person will feel excellent if he removes negative attitudes (and in particular, negative attitudes about the fact that old age is necessarily accompanied by weakness, infirmity, and illness) and replaces them with positive statements, and loves himself.
Don't be afraid of death:
firstly, death does not have to take place in some painful state in accordance with a person’s positive worldview (positive attitude towards oneself and other people);
secondly, our existence does not end with this life on Earth, and at the next reincarnation we will appear on this planet again.
strengthens the nervous system; mobilizes the body's defenses.
Therapeutic effect:
increases vitality;
tones up defenses;
strengthens the nervous system.
Showing kindness, gentleness and tolerance towards yourself
Kindness, gentleness and tolerance towards yourself are especially necessary during that period of your life when you are learning new methods or systems of healing that include such a factor as changing yourself.
And changing is not so easy for a person. Most people believe that changing is easy, meaning others, but when they begin to change themselves with the help of any healing system, they often find themselves for some time in a state that can be called transitional, when a person hesitates, rushes between old and new.
Sometimes during this period you can hear a person justify his rush from what was to what should be:
“I keep wondering if this system has benefited me. After all, it has been around for a long time, and I don’t see many people doing it.”
He most likely understands that if a system has existed for a long time, this does not mean that many people should be involved in it (a person must be ready for this system, must grow to the realization that he needs this system).
He's just trying to find a trick to stretch out the transition period a little (the most important thing is that this stretching is not long).
And this is a completely normal and natural process, characteristic of learning something new or changing oneself. Therefore, do not scold yourself, show yourself kindness and gentleness during this transition period - anyway, if you have a desire to change, after a short transition period you will begin to change.
Show not only tolerance towards yourself, but also a certain patience necessary when using means of working on yourself.
If we consider positive statements from this point of view, we must point out, firstly, that positive statements will not have an effect if they are said 2-3 times. This is not enough, because any change requires a long and often continuous (meaning periodic with one or another time interval) action of a certain method. Positive affirmations need to be said over a long period of time.
Secondly, it is also important what you do in the intervals between repetitions of positive statements, and in these intervals you need to maintain a certain positive internal atmosphere - you need to praise yourself for the slightest achievements in the process of change.
Therapeutic effect:
tones up defenses;
heals the nervous system;
increases vitality.
Music
Choose melodic, beautiful music. Turn on the tape recorder. Lie down on the floor, relax.
Breathe rhythmically (full yogic inhalation and full yogic exhalation of the same duration, say 8 pulses each, and the duration of breath holds after inhalation and exhalation is half as long as
duration of inhalation and exhalation, that is, 4 pulses each). It is best to take the same body position as in Savasana and relax in the same way as in Savasana. Don't try to understand the music, perceive it with your whole body and soul, accept it completely, unconditionally, allow it to penetrate freely within you; try to succumb to it and merge with it, gradually dissolving yourself in its sound. Therapeutic effect:
raises vitality;
strengthens the nervous system.
Communication with nature
Spend as much time as possible in nature. The best thing is if it happens every day, at least for a few minutes (in the forest, in the park, or at least in the public garden). At the same time, try to reveal your sensitivity to the life around you, trying to understand internally why and how flowers open, birds sing, insects fly and crawl, trees sway, taking part in all this, so to speak, by deepening and concentrating your thoughts. Such quiet time in the fresh air will not only improve your physical appearance, but will gradually develop inner strength, calmness, and balance in you.
When you have mastered this meditation exercise (it doesn't take much - 3-4 outings in nature), you will be ready to master the next exercise, a wonderful exercise that will greatly illuminate and enrich your life. Let's call this exercise “Love of the Elements.” It will teach you to love, to enjoy, to feel fully every mood of the elements - to be receptive to them and aware of them; and this means it will increase the joy of life in this world.
The technique is the same as in the first exercise, that is, having chosen one of the elements (for example, rain), we will turn all our attention only to this element. Think only about rain, think about why it appeared and why it is needed, and then think that if nature needs it, then you need it too. This rain, no matter what it is (warm or cold), is pleasant to you and gives you a surge of strength. This exercise increases our energy and enriches the soul (a fact recognized by many talented artists who instinctively turned to the elements, even to the storm, to renew and replenish their spiritual strength).
Therapeutic effect:
strengthens the nervous system,
improves the cardiovascular system.
Beautiful appearance
Good appearance (good condition of hair and skin, as well as beautiful clothes) and positive thinking are interconnected for most people on Earth. A good mood and positive thoughts improve the condition of the hair and skin of the body, stimulate the desire to please people and dress beautifully. And vice versa, beautiful clothes and good body condition lift your mood, often make it festive, and raise the level of positive thinking. That is why it is so important, under any conditions and under any circumstances of life, not to give up, but to try to dress well all the time and maintain the good condition of your hair and facial skin. This both delays aging and has a rejuvenating effect through maintaining positive thinking (in addition to the fact that beautiful clothes and products for maintaining good condition of hair and facial skin directly, visually, so to speak, rejuvenate a person).
First about clothes. They experience a feeling of moral and spiritual uplift by dressing in fashionable and beautiful clothes - a wonderful habit that should be maintained all the time (if, of course, there are conditions for this). A person in beautiful clothes changes his posture (the spine tends to straighten) and gait. Not only ease of movement appears, but also self-confidence.
It is advisable not to wear old clothes. Clothing absorbs elements of our mental emanation and becomes saturated with them over time. Whoever wears old clothes enters the atmosphere of emanation that was once absorbed by these clothes, and feels the echoes of old moods and sorrows, worries and troubles. New clothes free our psyche and give it lightness. It is like a fresh shell of our body, not yet impregnated with the mental emanation of many days. You should not even keep clothes that you wore during a happy time for you. Wearing old clothes to save money means putting on old outdated parts of the past and wasting your energy unproductively. Even snakes from “economy” do not crawl into old skin. Nature does not recognize old clothes, does not skimp on feathers, furs, and paints.
Intuition makes people wear certain clothes on certain occasions, leaving everyday thoughts at home with everyday clothes. Each profession should have its own special elegant dress, putting on which people would be in the mood appropriate for this occupation without unnecessary expenditure of energy. In all religions, the priest wears a special priestly robe intended for a specific service, and does not wear it at other times to protect his “aura” from base thoughts. If the priest constantly wore it, then all the bad moods and troubles of his everyday life would penetrate into the sacred robe.
Most people in their early youth neglect the toilet, dressing in dark and unfashionable clothes. This is the beginning of dying. These people give up morally and quickly enter old age.
Everyone experiences a feeling of moral and spiritual uplift when wearing fashionable and beautiful clothes. The habit of wearing fashionable and beautiful clothes is wonderful (if there are, of course, conditions for this), since it affects not only morally and spiritually, but also makes a person beautiful; posture and gait become beautiful and confident in accordance with the clothes.
Ancient yoga instructions for skin care include the following procedure:
“Cut a lemon into two halves and, sitting in a comfortable position with your legs crossed, rub them on your elbows, and this will eliminate the roughness of the skin. Rinse and
rub them with vegetable oil. Do the same with your knees and neck. Flatten half a lemon and rub it under your chin in an up and down motion. Then rub the body with vegetable oil.”
Rubbing with vegetable oil (you can call this procedure “rinsing”, because vegetable oil cleanses the skin well; it’s not for nothing that vegetable oil even removes paint from the skin) is best done after a warm bath or shower, when the pores of the skin open. The oil is rubbed generously (heated, but not to a hot state) and the rubbing ends when completely relaxed. You can use any vegetable oil, but olive oil is best.
You need to make masks periodically (once every 2-3 weeks). Masks are not an invention of modern cosmetics. Many thousands of years ago, Egyptian and Greek women applied various masks to their faces to keep their skin young and fresh. The effect of the mask is that it causes an increased flow of blood to the skin tissues, after which they become elastic, the muscles become elastic, the pores begin to intensively secrete the products of the skin glands, the skin becomes fresh and youthful.
The best effect can be achieved by applying the mask in the evening before bed. It should not be left overnight; after some time, the mask should be washed off. Before applying the mask, thoroughly cleanse the skin of dust and sweat, best using compresses alternating hot and cold water. Skin with increased sensitivity should be smeared with a rich cream before doing this. Place the mask on your face, lie down comfortably and relax. This is necessary even if you have very little time. There will be no effect if you put on a mask and walk around the apartment and do housework. You should use a certain mask as long as it has a good effect. In general, it is recommended to change the composition of masks from time to time. Here are some mask recipes that you should use.
A mask made from one large potato, boiled in a small amount of milk, instantly removes signs of fatigue on the face and smoothes out wrinkles. When the resulting liquid porridge has cooled, it should be applied to the face.
A cucumber mask heals the skin, smoothes it, narrows enlarged pores, and whitens; Recommended for aging and tired skin. Grate a juicy cucumber, place the pulp on a piece of gauze and cover your face with it.
A carrot mask is especially effective for pale, aging skin, as well as for oily skin covered with acne. Grate a large juicy carrot, put the pulp on gauze, and apply to your face.
Positive attitude and positive thinking through the work process
The state of the body depends on the style of work, on the attitude towards work and on the internal state during work; for work done without interest, without love, causes a person to experience physical and mental fatigue and dissatisfaction.
Any job can be made interesting. Firstly, you can use elements of role-playing training: play some role when doing work. Imagine yourself as an inventor putting your invention to work, or imagine what is being done
order for a loved one, etc.
Secondly, you can use the meditation method in your work.
The technique for performing work as meditation is as follows:
Do full yoga breathing for 3-5 minutes. Imagine that with an exhalation you are throwing away all your gloomy thoughts about both life and work;
you will feel relief - and get to work;
discarding all other thoughts, turn your attention to the pleasure that work can and does give. And gradually this pleasure will grow and eventually become a habit.
Therapeutic effect:
raises vitality;
strengthens the nervous system.
Replacing negative thoughts with positive ones
First of all, you need to learn to control the desires of your body. Don't let your body's negative desires influence and confuse your mind. If you really think that your body's desire (lust, desire to eat, laziness, etc.) is negative at the moment and satisfying this desire will harm you, drop this desire. The body is stupid and at the same time susceptible to guidance from the brain. So let your mind dictate its decisions to your body, otherwise the opposite will happen: your body will control your mind - and then your life will be made up of illnesses and slavery. When you learn to control the desires of your body, it will be easier for you to move on to controlling your thoughts, namely replacing negative thoughts with positive ones. As soon as negative thoughts come into your head (wishing harm on someone, thoughts associated with anxiety, fear, envy, etc.), immediately replace them with positive ones of the opposite nature.
We must firmly understand and remember that negative thoughts are destructive thoughts that cripple and poison the mind and soul, leading to internal moral emptiness and failures in life. Moreover, negative thoughts associated with prolonged anxiety slowly but steadily lead to “intoxication” of the body, and negative thoughts associated with fear and anger quickly lead to intoxication. In both cases, at a corresponding rate, a person gets a health disorder or illness.
After some time, when you have already acquired a stable skill of replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, negative thoughts will arise less and less, and positive ones will appear more and more often. This process is greatly helped by a positive daily attitude, which in itself is very important: it positively tones the psyche and gives a good mood. Every morning, as soon as you wake up, inspire yourself that you are happy, confident, lucky, and the world around you is beautiful; the people around you are good and full of merit. You are ready to forgive their shortcomings and you are ready to love them.
Therapeutic effect:
heals all body systems.
Inner smile
In the morning you need to choose a time for a positive attitude for the whole day. Before the morning set of exercises, you need to enter a state of inner smile.
This is done as follows:
sit comfortably, relax your lower jaw and open your mouth slightly;
start breathing, but not deeply. Let the body breathe, then the breathing will become shallow. When you feel that your breathing has become shallow, your body becomes deeply relaxed;
at this moment try to feel a smile, but not on your face, but inside. This is not the smile that plays on the lips, but an internal smile, a smile that penetrates you from the inside.
Try it and see for yourself, because it is impossible to explain. As if you are smiling not with your mouth, but with your stomach, the smile will be soft, barely perceptible, like a rose flower blooming in your stomach and exuding its aroma throughout your body.
Once you experience this smile, you will be able to remain happy throughout the day.
During the day, when you feel that the pleasant feeling of a smile and along with it a good mood are leaving, try to catch this inner smile again.
Before you leave home for work, you need to set yourself up for calm, measured activity throughout the day. At the same time, remember once again the basic rules of behavior when performing any work:
do not rush - haste has a detrimental effect on both the results of work and the psyche;
consistently do one thing after another. Therapeutic effect:
improves mood;
strengthens the nervous system.
Energizing thoughts and a smile
Every day, from the very morning, our brain should receive impulses in the form of thoughts that can influence our internal mood and the tone of our mental and creative activity throughout the day. After all, the nature of the course of all our neuropsychic processes and, what is very important, the optimal level of our emotional reactions to various stimuli largely depends on the mood. The nature of our behavior in the family, in the team, in the social environment largely depends on the prevailing thought-emotional mood in our consciousness.
You need to have a certain set of tonic thoughts. The set of words may be different for different people, but the meaning should be the same:
optimism,
happiness,
self-confidence.
For example, the following set of tonic thoughts can be used:
“I'm happy. I face any difficulties with a smile. I will be alert and energetic throughout the day.”
The time for a positive tonic mood is the first minutes after waking up from sleep.
A smile is used as a positive attitude. If your face is unsmiling and unsmiling has become a habit, you should practice smiling every morning in front of the mirror, creating a friendly facial expression, because a friendly facial expression excites the centers of positive emotions and puts you in a good mood. A person with a natural, friendly smile himself gains vigor and cheerfulness, and improves the mood of those around him.
You need to pay attention to the expression on your face and not allow a boring, gloomy, dissatisfied expression on your face, since such an expression is not so harmless: people with a dissatisfied face are like a sieve - all the phenomena of life are sifted through their consciousness, good things slip through without stopping, but the bad remains and is fixed, continuing to form a quarrelsome character.
In everyday life, a smile, as a rule, evokes a smile and a corresponding mood among others, creating an atmosphere for friendly or business communication. A radiant smile helps kindly
treat the people you communicate with and avoid critical situations that can ruin your mood.
A smile is a trigger for a feeling of joy, a joyful attitude, and joy, in turn, is a background that tunes the psyche in a life-affirming way. A joyfully disposed person is transformed. His heart sounds more cheerful, his eyes radiate kindness, his movements become more expressive, and his thoughts become more directed. Such a person’s perception of art and the beauty of nature becomes more acute, relationships with others improve, and creative activity becomes more fruitful.
The best decoration in life is a great mood.

Life is a series of black and white stripes. Meetings are often followed by partings, successes are followed by failures, joys are followed by sadness and disappointment. However, it also happens that even in cloudless periods, for some reason we are sad... Let's find out how to tune in to the positive so as not to waste precious mental strength getting upset over trifles.
The importance of a positive attitude and good thoughts
A good mood is the key to success in everything. And constant complaints about failures lead to nothing but negativity, envy and constant dissatisfaction with oneself (and here we are rather talking about women, because almost every second one “sins” with such behavior).
Living in constant stress is simply unbearable, so you need to learn to think optimistically. A positive attitude can change your life for the better because:
- Optimism literally attracts good luck and happiness, because a person who exudes positivity is a priori happy.
- Positive people are treated very positively: you want to communicate with them, spend leisure time, and build friendly, trusting relationships.
- A good mood in the morning charges you with vigor and energy for the whole day.
- A balanced person is more resistant to various diseases; it is not for nothing that they say that all diseases originate in our head.
- Positively-minded people are also attractive in appearance, because a smile always makes a person beautiful.
- A person who thinks positively will never give up; he will cope with any difficulties, and therefore quickly moves up the career ladder and achieves success in all endeavors.
- The absence of negativity frees you from meaningless thoughts and rash actions, depression and loneliness.
- A positive attitude is the key to happy family relationships.
How to get rid of bad thoughts
It is useless to tune in to the wave of positivity without freeing yourself from negative thoughts. Therefore, first you should get rid of all the negativity from your head. The following tips will help you do this:
- Figure out what is the cause of your anxiety. Divide a blank sheet of paper into three columns. In the first, write down all your fears, in the second, note the basis of these worries, and in the third, your actions to eliminate them.
- Don’t hide from obsessive negative thoughts, don’t ignore them. Even after letting you go for a while, they accumulate in the subconscious and can “cover” you at the most inopportune moment.
- Don't let negativity get into your head. Anxious thoughts should be eliminated at the stage of their occurrence. Make it a habit to switch to any interesting activity as soon as you realize that you are starting to worry.
- Don't be afraid to make your own decisions. If you are plagued by doubts, you cannot come to a consensus with your own thoughts, you are unable to make the right choice, throw all fears aside and finally make a decision. Even if it turns out to be incorrect, it will be your personal experience.
- Don't exaggerate the significance of problems. Just think: not even a year will pass before you forget about those thoughts that are keeping you from sleeping today.
- Look for the positive in every situation. Human psychology is designed in such a way that he easily notices the downsides, but to see the upsides, he has to make an effort.
- Do not suffer for months and years with feelings of guilt in front of people who have offended you. It’s better to try to change the situation, take action, and don’t isolate yourself. Get over yourself, try to ask for forgiveness for the first time in your life, don’t be shy and help with deeds, and not just with words. Depression often arises precisely because of the feeling of guilt, which follows a person like a train, giving him no peace.
- Learn to forgive. Resentment towards loved ones or anger at oneself has a destructive effect on the psyche. Forgiveness will give you a feeling of inner freedom.
- Fight against your wild imagination, which paints bright pictures in your head about the sad outcome of problems. Remember that you can find a way out of any situation. Instead of fantasizing, it’s better to start planning using a simple psychological technique: just write down point by point how you can turn what happened in your favor; By visualizing what is written in your own hand, you will convey important thoughts to your consciousness.
The power of thought: how to ride the wave of positivity
Getting rid of negativity is not enough; you must not allow it to return. To do this, you need to change your lifestyle, behavior and even your worldview.
- First of all, do only the things you love. Each of them should bring exceptional joy and pleasure.
- Secondly, open yourself to new experiences. A positive shake-up is what is needed for a positive attitude. Skydiving, scuba diving, hang gliding - these or other extreme activities that are unusual for you will bring a lot of new emotions and, perhaps, make you think about a new hobby.
- Thirdly, listen to yourself and learn to relax. Sometimes problems at work, in the family or in other areas are due to the fact that we are not in the right mood, we work endlessly and forget about rest. If peace of mind comes when you lie in a bath filled with warm foamy water and read a book by your favorite author, then ask your loved ones to give you a couple of hours of peace and quiet. Most likely, they will be sympathetic to your request. Trips to the theater, museum, cinema, meetings with friends and outdoor recreation should happen more than once a year, but much more often, because they drive away the blues and drive away fatigue.
- Don't put an unbearable burden on your shoulders. If you understand that you cannot cope with a large amount of work alone, then do not take it on in pursuit of a bonus. It’s better to be healthy and fresh than to hold rustling banknotes in your hands, but not have the strength to do anything.
- Be respectful of other people's rules and principles. If you don’t like someone’s judgment, you shouldn’t take it with hostility. Having a condescending attitude towards people will bring positivity to both them and you.
- Dream. All thoughts are material, so in your free moments, imagine that your dream has come true.
- Love yourself. Pamper yourself with gifts, with or without reason, praise for your successes, don’t focus on external shortcomings, but don’t forget to work on your internal ones.
A positive attitude allows you to enjoy every day and thank fate for the wonderful world in which we live. Be optimistic, exude light and joy, infect other people with a good mood, then you will not only be happy yourself, but also give a piece of goodness to others.
