Our life is largely connected with how the important part of the body - the brain - works and functions. Working with this central part of the nervous system, you can change reactions, form other situations, and improve well-being. How to learn to control the brain?
Instruction manual
one
Train your brain. The main functional characteristics that you should pay attention to are strength and coordination of the mind, flexibility, endurance. The power of the mind allows us to focus on what is needed for the right amount of time. Flexibility - the ability to switch from one to another. Endurance is determined by the duration of a high level of activity, and coordination allows you to operate with several concepts at once or simultaneously lead a series of parallel thought processes.
2
Get rid of mess in thoughts. To do this, understand what your brain occupies. Write down all your thoughts on a piece of paper. Ignore the clarity of the wording. Write down everything that comes to mind: feelings and desires, fears, plans and tasks.
3
Then start combining words with similar meanings and reduce the wording to a minimum. Do this until there is absolutely nothing left and nothing to record.
4
Train your attention. Decide how long you want to concentrate. For example, for two minutes. Put a watch with a second hand in front of you and turn on the TV at the same time. When the concentration begins to dissipate, and you begin to be distracted by the television program, return to the task. Sustained concentration can only be achieved through training. Agree with yourself that you will pay attention to what is happening at the moment.
5
Track what you are paying attention to first of all. Look around the room, highlighting a few rounded objects in it. If you pay attention to problems, life will be full of troubles. Concentrating on particulars, the world will lose its logical connection and integrity. Focus on creative processes, and life will become interesting and diverse.
6
Train imaginative thinking. Close your eyes and imagine yourself on the seashore. Hear the sound of the waves, smell the salt water, feel the spray escaping from the abyss. Continue to contemplate the picture on the inner perception screen. Feel the wind, the grains of sand on your skin, the sun's rays. After some time, return to reality. You will feel how your body relaxed and rested. All this is possible thanks to your work with the brain.
