Carnival of Positive Thinking

Here we are at another Sunday, well done to all of us and getting through another week…but if we are going to move from surviving to thriving, to move past the grief then we need to be motivated to get past the loneliness. Here are this weeks articles to help widows, and widowers

ananga presents How to Use Your Breath to Relax Your Mind posted at Ananga Sivyer’s Living by Design Blog, saying, “If your mind is behaving like a kid in a waiting room and is really having trouble keeping still and quiet, you need to learn to distract it with mindfulness. Rather than using TV, or rushing about to escape stress and unwanted thoughts, you can distract your mind with something naturally soothing and relaxing, something that can flip the switch between stress and relaxation in minutes. Your breath.”

Stephen Martile presents Are you bigger than your problems? posted at FreedomEducation.ca by Stephen Martile, saying, “Hi Widows Quest, Most people don’t get what they want because they keep doing the same old thing. They keep taking the same actions in hopes of creating a different result. And the reason they do that is because their actions are rooted in fear. They fear taking on new actions. And that is their biggest problem.”

Chris Edgar presents Are You A “Star” Or A “Bit Player”? posted at Purpose Power Coaching, saying, “Some people see themselves as “supporting actors” in their lives.

If you experience this feeling and want a more balanced perspective, the exercises in this article are intended to help.”
