Change your perception of circumstances to a more optimistic, ie the glass half full principle, can help your mental health. Let us look at three tips for improvements that many believe are the necessary basis for the high energy, upbeat and positive person that everyone loves to be around.
First, consider your diet. Not some crash diet to lose weight, but which give nutrients to your body to function during the day.
The body is designed to function optimally when receiving nutrients from a balanced diet. This means that all food groups in moderation. Too much of a group can be detrimental to your health. Foods high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as wild salmon, fruits rich in flavonoids, such as blueberries and green leafy vegetables such as spinach, is a good place to start. There are books written about nutrition that. Especially for the brain, but way too much to cover here Suffice it to say, proper nutrition is very important for the health of the brain.
Second, put your mind to positive reinforcement, the first thing every day. Instead of relying on a news channel or picking up the morning newspaper, or both, as you have breakfast, read or listen to something inspiring. This can be a book of poetry, his inspirational verse from a religious book, or even a prayer video. Ideally do this before exposure, something else in the morning and there is a positive mood for the whole day set. And then on what you have read or seen meditating. The brain is an organ that is wonderfully designed, essentially reflects who we are. It has the ability, everything that you experience by saving your senses. We become what we may ultimately experience our senses.
The last tip seems simple, but is very important to surround yourself with people, uplifting and positive to grow and inspire each other. This tip alone can be a dramatic change in your mental health. Let me share a personal experience. In our family, love is a woman who is 96 years old and is one of the most positive upbeat people I have ever met. Her advice to me once, when you feeling down and sorry for yourself, go out and find a person in need and help them. Someone to help you find the true meaning of friendship to understand.
When is the best time to try these three tips? Well, every morning and day for the rest of your life! Around you improve the mental attitude of the people around you, including yourself.
