Why positive thinking is so important!
Our training has its fair share of woo woo, we dive down the rabbit hole deeply and frequently. However we do back it all with science, research and experience.
One of the elements cemented into the program is ideas around the Law of Attraction. We have our own dedicated program, M.Y.D.A.S., and although it works in a philosophical way, the science behind it has to be addressed and appreciated.
This also counts for mindset approaches such as positive thinking.
We have a small area in our brain called the Reticular Activating System (RAS). The reticular activating system is a short, pencil-sized piece of the brain located just above where the spinal cord is attached to the brain. Its main job is to filter information from the senses. It assesses what you are focused on and then creates a filter for that. It programs itself from your conscious and unconscious thoughts. That's why you can decide there is a certain car you want, and you start seeing that car everywhere. It was always there, but your RAS filtered it out as it wasn't important before.
For that same reason, lucky charms, gypsy curses, superstitions work. If you believe in them, then the RAS will filter out things in your life to support that belief.
And the same goes for positive or negative thinking. Your RAS will filter out and bring your awareness to that which you focus on, so if you have a negative outlook on life, then you will see the negative all around you, and be almost blind to the positive. However if you train yourself to think positively, to see the best in all situations, then in turn the RAS will start to focus and isolate your attention to the positive stuff all around you. The negative will start to fade into the background easily.
This is the same with the Law of Attraction and our own M.Y.D.A.S. program. Aside from the metaphysical aspects and the woo woo, when you focus on your outcome and goals, your RAS will bring your attention to the opportunities to achieve that.
Make that switch from negative, low vibration states, to positive high vibration states.
