It’s not the experience that hurts; it’s the story we tell ourselves about it.
These stories often run in the background, half-unnoticed, while we’re doing other things. But they’re still there. The problem with these stories is that, whether you experience the event for real or just tell yourself a story about it, those thoughts trigger the same shifts in your body’s chemistry and emotions, as though the event were really happening.
Your body can’t tell the difference between what is ‘here’ and your mind’s stories. It treats them all as real.
So if we tell ourselves an angry story, we get angry sensations in our body and feel angry emotions. Tell yourself a happy story and your auto-pilot happy hormones are released, triggering the physical and emotional experience of happiness for you.
With this next gratitude technique, you can experiment with deliberately using this auto-pilot response, to shift our experience of life. It’s really simple. And it works! It’s a great way to tame and retrain your Monkey Mind to concentrate on gratitude, rather than complaining.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” bg_position=”center top” bg_repeat=”no-repeat” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” top_padding=”22″ bottom_padding=”22″][vc_column width=”1/1″][vc_column_text]
