How to train your brain to focus on POSITIVE.

September 3, 2022

We all tend to register negativity. This is called negative bias - an adaptive feature of the human psyche, which was especially necessary for survival. However, now this task is no longer urgent and negative bias just HURTS us. But you probably know that our brain is EXTREMELY malleable. This means that we can "reconfigure" these ancient settings quite successfully. For this purpose we need to do the following. 1. Recognize negative bias and note that moment when you start feeling fear and anxiety. 2. Switch to pleasant memories as if you're shifting your mood. 3. And now stay in that mood and try not to go back into your anxieties.
