I went to my therapist today. He was the person who 1st gave me the idea of pink elephant. When I just started my therapy with him, the 1st thing he ask me to do - "Think of anything but the pink elephant", then the next question he asked me "What are you thinking now??". The pink elephant, of course. That was when I realised my mind is so easily affected by words, images. I begin to read more. Positive thinking is a very useful tool to use in our life. Everyone has it. Just that whether we use it more or less. Like for me, I use it less cause I am a worrier. My mind is programmed in such a way to worry about things. This has affected me and affecting me a lot. A little bit of discomfort in my body, I begin to worry and panic. It's is not healthy. That's why sub-consciously I developed this anxiety. In a way, it is good. It helps me to be more aware of my body, my surrounding now. But there is always a balance.
As I mentioned, I went to my therapist today. I had a panic attack yesterday. I suddenly lost control of my thoughts and fear that I will go crazy when I keep talking to myself in my mind that I will be fine. My therapist said "Everyone goes crazy everyone, you are too! That is why life is so interesting". He did a short hypnosis with me. I feel better and it's good to talk to him again. This time, the worry issue is a big thing. But I am sure I can overcome this. He told me to list down 5 things i don't want in my life and 5 things i want in my life. To keep a records of my positive thoughts. And to do something for others (total strangers) and the motto will be "To Others Matters". What he said is true. Life is too short to wory about thing. There are so many things to do in life. And rather than worry. Why don't we just live our life to the fullest? Makes sense. All I need to do is to reprogramme myself to live my life to the fullest and stop worrying. Glad and happy that I have gone to him to talk about my issues again.
