Positive Thinking Activities


Even the person who is living the best life will have seasons of difficulty or encounter obstacles.

One way to overcome obstacles and difficulties in life is to have a positive mind set. While this is can be difficult to achieve there are several activities you can do to improve the way you think. Consider the following:

Incorporating Affirmations: quotes, and positive messages in your life can be extremely helpful. Activities such as, meditations, mindfulness, and gratefulness journaling can increase a positive outlook. Try falling asleep at night to inspiring music, scripture recordings, or read a positive affirmation or devotion before going to bed.

Express Your Feelings: One simple way is to keep a record of your feelings. This can be done by writing your thoughts and feelings into a journal, either online or by using a pen and a good old-fashioned diary. If you aren’t a writer then playing an instrument can help you express your feelings. Or you may like to paint or draw to express yourself.

Dancing and Singing: Singing and dancing are fun to do no matter if you have a talent for them or not. Both are a great way to show how you are feeling and to rid yourself of negative feelings. If you don’t like to sing or dance then listening to uplifting music can be a great help.

Exercise: It has been shown that exercise helps to increase your endorphins and allows you to feel refreshed and more energized. Try going for a walk first thing in the morning and see if you don’t have more energy during the day.

Talk to a Good Friend: sharing your thought and feelings with a close friend is another therapeutic activity, which is good for your mind and body. A friendly chat with someone can help you put things into perspective and make you understand that things aren’t necessarily as bad as you think.

Change Your Environment: You may not realize it but you can automatically associate certain places with negative thoughts. By going for a walk in a new park or by visiting a new lake you can reinforce good thoughts. Plus just getting away from it all can be a wonderful way to put your life back into perspective. You can collect your thoughts and organize your priorities and get your life on track along with thinking positive thoughts.
