The essence of yoga is positive in any situation that we find ourselves in.
When we are positive, we find that our interactions with the world and ourselves brighter, more productive and perpetuating the "feel good" factor.This in turn makes us healthier and more peaceful.
But how do we develop this positivism. the answer can be found in 'Attitudinal ' yoga.
According to this concept of yoga, the path to a positive attitude be found via a 3-step approach, namely
Consciousness
Accepted; and
Attitude
Let us examine these three components:
Consciousness:
The first step is aware of what and how we think.We need to be aware at all times of how our minds work – the thoughts, thought patterns and trends in training. make this a habit. If it is difficult, the meditation technique of antar mouna and Yoga Nidra methods that help us do this.These techniques help the withdrawing our senses to penetrate.
Acceptance:
Consciousness, however, brings about an increased sensitivity to the problems.We have a tendency to be judgemental and critical of us or others.This has the risk of sending us in a vicious cycle of negativity, unless we learn to accept what we see and understand.
Have an attitude that "it's ok" to think how we are.Just a witness to this fact and believe that God loves us for what we are.This acceptance leads to a real love and compassion, which are the basis of positive thinking.
For example, are you angry with your partner to something as per your wishes to do so, accept that it is natural for you faced with such emotions.Accept that the result of certain archetypes or 'samskaras ' that are embedded in your subconscious. Also accept that it is good for your partner to behave in this way, which is based on his perception and the elements embedded in his subconscious.
With practice you will find that this helps in the handedness of negativity to a large extent.
Attitude:
Once we have accepted what lies in our minds, we can actually start working on how we ' want ' to look at that particular person, situation, or thing. Yoga techniques help us changing our attitude. The 'Sankalpa ' or the determination that we in Yoga Nidra helps in shaping our minds.This determination in the yoga is always in the nature of a positive statement-such as "I am increasingly positive every day".Such imports are processed in the spirit help in shaping our attitude in one of the positivism.
Let's look at changing attitudes in the following example: suppose you have a negative attitude towards someone. so much so that he puts you in a bad mood when you see him. for a moment, only one small thing or quality in him that you want to find. now remember that a good thing when you meet or interaction with him. Gradually, you will notice that your feelings toward him and will be more positive things start to look.
After these three directives and you will find yourself becoming more positive. remember that every thought generated in the spirit also by every cell in the body is experienced. that's why on a "good" day that you feel yourself train better with more flexibility, while on a "bad" day you stiff and lethargic feel.
Finally, positive thinking affects the whole-body vibration in a positive way. This, in turn, affects the vibrations around us, which in turn influence the situations around us. This helps to relieve our suffering and leading a harmonious living. Source
