Health is a fundamental asset of well-being. However, while, at times, the mistake of observing health is made, only in reference to the body, on the contrary, this good also refers to the emotional plane.
¿How to have a healthy and positive mind? In Psychology-Online, we give you the keys to reinforce your internal well-being through that attitude that allows you to take control of your life without being conditioned so much by what the circumstances are external.
External circumstances can affect you because you are human. But how can you develop the power of your mind against those external factors?
1. Own the philosophy of optimism
To do this, look for the good side of each situation as a routine of its own. The truth is that you can find that reason for optimism even in difficult situations.
2. Trust your internal resources
As a human being, you have inexhaustible potential thanks to your will, your sensitivity, your feelings, your perseverance, your intelligence, your emotional and social skills. Pay attention to these natural assets.
3. Practice the power of friendship, appreciating their virtues in each person
Don't waste time waiting for a person to be exactly how you would like it to be. Appreciate the virtues of others and express your admiration for those qualities through the reinforcement of the word.
4. Live your life in the form of the present
Create a phrase that, as a mantra, represents this power of carpe diem in your life. Live now unconditionally. To do this, focus your mind on making short-term decisions. In both sadness and joy, reflect on what you can do today to savor this day. Learn to forget the past and live the present.
5. Enjoy television but with measure
Avoid spending endless hours in front of the small screen. At the same time, it selects television content rich in educational values and devoid of any type of violence. Television also educates when the content is of quality.
Body and mind establish a constant dialogue over time. A dialogue that is part of your own evolution and projection as a human being. Thanks to this constant link, you can also access information about your mood through your bodily sensations if you listen to your emotions. There are no negative and positive emotions.
Those emotions that are so often labeled negative because of the effect they produce do not have this nuance. They are actually unpleasant emotions because of how they make you feel. However, it is important that you look at all emotions from the perspective of the positive function of the information they offer you about yourself.
If you are going through a difficult situation on an emotional level, the help of a psychologist can be especially therapeutic to have a healthy and positive mind.
