10 Quick Positivity Hacks

Make up mantras. You are not alone. We’re all in this together. These positive affirmations are more than just catchy slogans for t-shirts; they may be an effective tool in molding your perspective. Select a mantra that speaks to you, then say it frequently.

Focus on successes. Recalling prior victories over obstacles can motivate you to overcome new ones in the future. Difficulties can be turned into teaching moments.

Challenge your negative thoughts. Although we are not always in control of what occurs to us, we do have control over how we react to it. Examine the situation from a different perspective to identify any potential advantages. For example, being “stuck at home with nothing to do” can be reframed as being “safe at home with an opportunity to connect with my family.”

Cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Begin or conclude your day with a thankfulness exercise. Either share aloud the three things you are thankful for every day with a loved one or write down your gratitudes. Having gratitude teaches your brain to focus on the good.

Stay in the present moment. It’s easy to get caught in a spiral of anxious thoughts about the future. We all want to know when this will end. Try this easy practice to help you return to the present moment if you find yourself caught up in this negative loop.

Let it go. Similar to this, you can avoid needlessly dwelling on the past by choosing to live in the present. While healing from traumatic experiences and other situations takes the right care, time, and support, it's important to be forgiving of small errors or faulty plans.

Connect with positive people. Happiness is influenced by social connectedness, which has a high correlation with optimism. Seek seek the companionship of others who uplift your spirits and encourage you. Similarly, avoid spending too much time with people who make you feel down or exhausted.

Pay it forward. One of the best ways to increase your happiness is to show people random acts of kindness. In addition, those you help and even those who simply witness your kind gestures will also benefit.

Do it for your family. Optimism can be a learned behavior and is a teachable skill. Encourage your family to be optimistic by modeling it for them and reaping the rewards yourself.

Practice makes progress. Naturally, it takes time and consistent practice for any new habit to become natural. Decide to have a more positive attitude every day, and get the benefits of your enhanced perspective.

DID YOU KNOW?

THE CHAKRA SYSTEMS ARE PRESCRIPTIVE, NOT DESCRIPTIVE.

English sources tend to present the chakra system as an existential fact, using descriptive language (like ‘the mūlādhāra chakra is at the base of the spine. it has four petals,’ and so on). But in most of the original Sanskrit sources, we are not being taught about the way things are, we are being given a specific yogic practice: we are to visualize a subtle object made of colored light, shaped like a lotus or a spinning wheel, at a specific point in the body, and then activate mantric syllables in it, for a specific purpose. The texts are prescriptive — they tell what you ought to do to achieve a specific goal by mystical means. When the literal Sanskrit reads, in its elliptical fashion, ‘Four-petaled lotus at the base of the body’ we are supposed to understand ‘The yogī ought to visualize a four-petaled lotus…’

Pose Dedicated To Sage Koundinya A

What is a Four-footed Posture?

Pose Dedicated to Sage Koundinya A, or koundinyasana A (and sometimes eka pada koundinyasana I) in Sanskrit, is a challening arm balance and twisting pose. The practitioner uses core strength to balance on his hands, one leg twisting underneath the torso to the side and the other leg reaching straight back.

Instructions

• Begin squatting.

• Exhale and twist the torso to the left. Place the hands on the floor beside the left leg. Bend the elbows.

• Shift forward and rest the left thigh on the right upper arm. Stack the right leg above it.

• Inhale and reach the right leg back.

• Breathe while holding the pose.

• Inhale and bring the legs together. Exhale and lower them to the floor. Change sides.
