There has been a huge amount written about positive thinking and how by changing your thoughts you can change your life, following extensive research by leading psychologists in the new field of positive psychology it has been shown that this is indeed the case. Just by changing how you think, you can change your life. By changing how we think we then change how we feel as our feelings follow on from our thoughts, it is these renewed feelings of hope, confidence and motivation that then change our lives as we can then make the changes we want in our lives and discover our own true potential that lies within us.
But the ability to think positively and keep an optimistic outlook in the face of adversity is not something that always comes naturally. Perhaps you are someone that would like to be more optimistic but find that you struggle with negative thoughts and behaviour, or that you are generally a positive person that is finding a certain life event a real challenge to get over.
This book aims to help you understand the power of your thoughts, and to learn how to influence them through many easy-to-learn techniques. We also consider how the mind and body are connected and that we should take a comprehensive approach to keep a positive and healthy mind.
