Day 3 Of The 7 Day Mental Diet 2018

Having fun yet? The diet may be simple, but it certainly is not easy. Continue being vigilant; watching for morbid reflection, those negative or destructive thoughts and judgements that seem to always be lurking, waiting for the chance to spring up and dominate our thinking. When you find your thoughts drifting in this manner immediately supplant the negative and destructive thoughts with positive. As you are beginning to discover, this can be a strenuous effort and few would be able to do this for much more than seven days so take heart, the dividends you will receive are worth the effort. Keep in focus the reason for this diet: to be aware of our thinking in a new light and to learn to plant positive, constructive, optimistic and kind thoughts in the garden of our consciousness; watered with the love and guidance of  the Creative Power of the Universe. Shhhh…and, remember don’t tell anyone you are on a diet. Follow this advice as well if you are considering starting a weight loss plan, an exercise program or quitting smoking and your odds of success will increase exponentially.

Day 2 of the 7 Day Diet 2018

If you are still considering whether to attempt this diet, take a moment in quiet contemplation and ask yourself why? What is there truly to be afraid of? This contemplation alone is worth the price of admission, but remember, always be gentle with yourself, avoiding morbid reflection at all costs.

If you began the diet yesterday, today choose the subjects you will entertain in your consciousness. Measure the emotional tone, being aware at all times of what you are thinking and how it is effecting you. Now for some good news, no one does this perfectly. When you become aware your thoughts have wandered somewhere negative, and they will, consider why you drifted into that thought and how it effected you emotionally, don't judge, just observe. Often these are just random thoughts triggered by a scent, a word or phrase or any of the multitudes of sensory inputs we experience daily, so do not give into paralysis by analysis. Remember, often a cloudy day is just a cloudy day, nothing more. If you find perhaps there is more to it and you cannot take a moment now, briefly note the thought and when you have the time, reflect on it in gentle contemplation. There is a rule here that must be obeyed, the rule is we are never to struggle or engage in negative appraisal of these random thoughts. We simply observe what floats through our mind as dispassionately as we can; this is not an exercise in judging, only in observing and noting effects.

A Seven Day Diet For 2018

Most diets focus on the waistline, the seven day mental diet addresses the destructive thoughts we carry around that are at the heart of all failure and perceived lack in our lives. In the garden of our thoughts we must learn to carefully choose the crops (thoughts) we plant and nurture in our consciousness. One of the fundamental truths of being is the thoughts we entertain will outsource in our lives. Whatever we are reading, watching on television or our phones, the topics we consistently chat about with friends and family, the thoughts we dwell on in private, all comprise the garden of our lives, the "food of thought" we partake of daily. Remember this fundamental truth: thought is causative and once our mental diet is in order, everything else in our lives will fall into place.

Day One: Be aware of the thoughts you entertain and the “food” you feed your mind. Be in the moment. Observe the types and frequency of the random thoughts that float into your consciousness. Now, observe passively and do not judge or try to discern the origin of a particular thought at this time for this leads to reflecting morbidly which in turn leads to failure. Keep notes if it helps, no extra points for spelling or correct punctuation. DO NOT tell anyone that you are on this diet or any other for that matter, for to do so all but guarantees failure. If the idea of doing this makes you cringe, then don’t. You are not ready. Just file it away and when ready, this wonderful tool of freedom will be available.
