a positive way of thinking       09/15/08 06:32 PM Edit Reply Quote kteach Reged: 09/15/08 Posts: 19 Loc: New York, NY I have recently started practicing yoga and am in love. It has helped me reduce my stress and anxiety greatly and I've lost a few pounds in the deal! But I think the greatest thing I've gotten from it so far is something a yoga instructor said at the end of a class. She asked us to focus on an "I want" way of thinking instead of an "I should" way of thinking. Formerly, every time I bumped into a food I wished I could eat or a glass of wine I knew would hurt me later, I would tell myself, "You really shouldn't do that!" and I would tend to do it anyway. Now I say, "I want to make a healthy choice so that I will feel well." More often than not, it works! -------------------- IBS-D 8 years Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
