Practice positive affirmations to rewire your brain from "summary" of Hardwiring Happiness by Rick Hanson,PhD
To internalize positive experiences and traits, you must ensure that they become part of your brain. This process involves experiencing positive feelings and thoughts and then maintaining those experiences in your mind. By doing so, you can rewire your brain to focus on positive aspects rather than negative ones. To achieve this, you can use positive affirmations to reinforce the positive experiences and thoughts in your mind.
Positive affirmations act as a tool to strengthen the positive connections in your brain. By repeating positive statements to yourself, you can reinforce the neural pathways associated with those affirmations. This repetitive process helps to embed these positive thoughts and feelings in your brain, making them more accessible and prominent. In this way, you can gradually shift your brain's focus towards positivity.
When practicing positive affirmations, it is important to choose statements that resonate with you personally. Select affirmations that reflect your values, goals, and aspirations. By choosing affirmations that are meaningful to you, you can increase their impact on your brain. Moreover, it is essential to repeat these affirmations regularly to reinforce the positive neural pathways in your brain.
Incorporating positive affirmations into your daily routine can help you cultivate a more positive mindset. By consistently engaging with positive thoughts and feelings, you can gradually rewire your brain to default to positivity. Over time, this practice can lead to a lasting change in your outlook and emotional well-being. By actively engaging with positive affirmations, you can strengthen your brain's capacity for positivity and resilience.
