The power of a positive mindset cannot be overstated. The only solution to mental health issues is to have a positive mindset. The mind has an enormous ability to heal itself.
Situations in our lives may not be going to change anytime soon, but a positive mindset has three major outcomes:
1. It releases healing and happy hormones; dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins.
2. It allows us to tackle situations in the wisest and most clear-sighted ways.
3. It, at the very least, decreases the experience of suffering, of agony.
The main question then is, how do we develop a positive mindset?
First of all, we must make sure that we are not putting negative images, conversations, and ideas into our brains and minds. The mind can only access what is in the 'library' within. If we install Instagram messages, world news, and conversations filled with anxiety, fear, and anger, it is like feeding the brain with negativity, with detrimental effect. We cannot choose our environment but we can choose what we feed our brain and mind - just as we can choose what food to eat for the body.
