THOUGHT, THINKING & FEELING

and all the other things going on inside your head

Manage how you think.

Managing how you think is absolutely key. And there is a lot to keep track of, between your thoughts, feelings, internal narrative, beliefs, limitations and possibilities etc. Obviously they are different things but what they have in common is that they all exists inside your head.

In Michael Singer’s book The Untethered Soul he encourages the reader to invite that voice inside our heads to come out into the world and hang out with us for a day, like a friend. When we read this in our book club we all agreed that none of us would like to hang out with the voice inside our heads for a full day. Yet that is what we actually do every day. All day long we have thousands of thoughts, feelings and questions we’re constantly debating with ourselves inside our head. No wonder we’re tired by the end of the day!

So here’s the thing, that voice inside your head – it will never quite disappear but we can learn to control the stereo volume and switch channels when needed…

ABOUT THOUGHTS

ABOUT FEELINGS

ABOUT LIMITATIONS

ABOUT BELIEFS

Despite everything that has happened, you still get to decide what you think about and what you do next...

7 Things to Think About…

keys to manage how you think

Just notice your thoughts. What are they about? Are the helpful? How do they make you feel?
Always ask yourself: “Is this thought I’m thinking actually true?”.
Feeling irritated? Try to take a sip of water or a snack. My hypnotherapist recommended me this and it has helped me steer clear of unhelpful thinking.
Is this an actual limit? What is holding me back from moving forward? (remember if you fight for your limitations you get to keep them).
Would you talk to a friend the way you talk to yourself? If the answer is no, that might be something you want to explore.
If you’re at a complete loss try this sentence (you can use it as a prayer too) “Please let me see this differently”.
Are you asking yourself the right questions? Instead of “why is he such a jerk?” what would happen if you asked yourself “why am I doing to constantly attract jerks?”.

If you fail to prepare you prepare to fail...

How Life Coaching Can Help

Do you have a feeling that you’re not quite in the right place and that you’re not quite living the life you’re meant to? Then life coaching is for you.

Being committed to manage how you think and being better every day takes hard work. It’s not comfortable, you’re going to have to feel through the growing pain but on the other side of that is where the magic happens. Once you become aware of your thoughts and patterns (patterns that by the way were created when you were a child to make you feel safe and secure and are most likely no longer serving you as an adult), once you identify those that are now actively holding you back, we can get to work and start working towards something great together… Let’s talk.
