I have recently retaken up hatha yoga after a long break, not only had I lost flexibility, stamina and muscle tone, I had also forgotten some of the philosophies yoga teaches. Like "be mindful with your thoughts". Yoga teaches that the basic components of the world is energy, matter is composed of dense energy and that thoughts are composed of finer energy. Essentially whatever we want to create, we must think it first. "The thought creates an image, a form, which magnetises energy to flow into the image and eventually manifest itself on the physical plane". If you live in fear, you will attract more fear in your life, if you think more positively we attract that into our lives.
Paul McKenna is a world renown for his work in self-improvement, and he too uses tools such as positive affirmations to reprogramme the subconscious. Starting with thinking very carefully about the qualities you are wanting to acquire in yourself and state them very clearly in the present tense, and the subconscious mind will respond in an appropriate manner. For instance, "I am going to be fit and healthy" is in future tense, so the mind responds to "going to be", and you can do that later, right? However "I am fit and healthy" tells the mind that you are being that NOW and you have the power in your hands.
So I am forgetting all this psychoanalysis malarchy, yoga is known as the "ancient science of life" and that's where my life is going now. To the more natural sciences. I don't need prescription drugs for everything when nature provides some most wonderful treatments. I don't need some shrink analysing my mind to tell me why I am failing, I already have all the tools I need. Go out today.... and be mindful with your thoughts.
