Quick & Effective Steps To Easily Change Your Feelings (Part 1)

Whenever we are experiencing problems it is due to our ownnfeelings. If we keep feeling un-resourceful in the samensituation this indicates our feelings have become habituatednand we have had no choice in how we responded.

This will change though won't it because you can findnyourself becoming curious about the new and simple techniquenbelow. ;)

People often have the intention to change their limitingnfeeling responses but unfortunately stay stuck innbehavioural patterns by talking to themselves and othersnwith "why?" questions.

"Why do I keep feeling like this in that situation?!"
"Why can't I change?" etc.

Ooops! These kinds of thoughts tend to create neuroticnloops.

Another way that is usually more useful (i.e. gets a desirednoutcome) is to modify the structure of the thought pattern.

If you think about it all of our thoughts can only be madenup of the five senses. Visual, Sounds, Feelings, Smells,
Tastes. Perhaps even so called subtle energy experienced innhealing systems such as Reiki are still experienced by thenmind within the five senses.

By becoming aware of some of the specific characteristics ofna thought process enables us to then change that structure.
For instance we could discover if the pictures we werenmaking in our head were still pictures or movies in black &nwhite or in full colour.

The following technique enables us to change our feelings bynrepresenting them in sounds. Please go ahead and check outnthe technique now, I'll give a little explanationnafterwards.

The Musical Tempo Changer

1. Pick a situation where you get a certain feeling thatnlimits your ability to respond with choice.

2. Become aware of the feelings in your body. Where do younfeel the feelings? Notice how the feelings move.

3. If you were to allow yourself to represent the feelingsnin music what music would you hear? Simply let some musicncome to mind.

4. As you listen to the music inside your mind paynparticular attention to the rhythm.

5. Now think of how you want to feel instead of the currentnfeeling. What kind of rhythm represents that desirednfeeling? Now hear new music with that new rhythm.

6. Keep playing the new music in your head as you think ofnthe situation you choose in step 1. Five to twenty secondsnis usually enough.

OK, that's great, now think of something totally differentnlike what did you have for breakfast yesterday?

And now think about the situation you selected in step 1 andnnotice how your feelings have changed.

By representing the feelings as music enabled us to becomenaware of a rhythmic structure. And because we associatednthat musical rhythm with our feelings they changed when wenchanged the rhythm!

Nice, simple and effective right?!

Now what would happen if you were to apply this technique o

3 other 'limitations.' Would your unconscious begin to learnnthe strategy and then begin to generalise the pattern intonother areas of your life or would it begin to happen in yournsleep and dreams instead?

Now WHY would that be a useful question to ask yourself now?
