Discover the freedom to change your emotional states at will, through changing your inner soundtrack. Combat negative self talk and negative emotions, or increase motivation with the power of your own mind! Sounds good to me!
\n__________<\/p>\n

The topic is sound…music, speech, how the soundtrack of our lives influences our emotional states.\u00a0 And how WE can enhance this and alter this influence for our own well-being.\u00a0 We can\u00a0do all sorts of things, for example release negative emotions, create motivation, move us forward in our desires.\u00a0 By “tinkering” with sound in our minds!<\/p>\n

Music moves us, elevates us, stirs our emotions, in the direction of any emotion you can name.\u00a0 Think of a march by John Phillip Sousa, or how any stirring anthem activates our feelings of patriotism.\u00a0 Think how a quiet, beautiful orchestral piece of music calms and relaxes.\u00a0 Think of a horror movie soundtrack, full of tension and suspense.\u00a0 Sound is a huge part of our experience of our lives and key to our memories and emotional states.\u00a0 Imagine a love movie with no soundtrack–would it have the same emotional impact?\u00a0 No!<\/p>\n

By altering the sounds we play in our minds in simple ways, we can experience life differently, more positively, and here are a few easy ideas to do so:<\/p>\n

We’ve all had arguments, with a coworker, with a spouse, with a friend, and sometimes they “eat” at us.\u00a0 We play them over and over in our minds, and churn up even more negative emotions like anger and irritation.\u00a0 Here’s something to do:\u00a0 as you think about that argument, create a new soundtrack.\u00a0 Let the voices fade and cue in the circus music.\u00a0 Clown music.\u00a0 Carnival music.\u00a0 Do do doodle-ooodle ut do do-dooo…\u00a0 Do do doodle-ooodle ut do do-dooo…Play that for awhile as the argument runs in your mind, and let it transform your experience of the argument.\u00a0 Done?\u00a0 Great!\u00a0 Now, think about it.\u00a0 That arguments seems kind of silly, doesn’t it?\u00a0 Ridiculous.\u00a0 Less power.\u00a0 Less force to disturb.\u00a0 And that’s a GOOD thing.<\/p>\n

Here’s another use for improving your life with sound.\u00a0 You want to get to the gym, you know you need to exercise.\u00a0\u00a0You want to exercise,\u00a0but somehow…you just aren’t doing it.\u00a0 Here’s what gets me going, and pumps up my motivation.\u00a0 The Rocky Theme.\u00a0 You know the one, where he’s running up the steps in Philadelphia:\u00a0 “getting strong now, gonna fly now…”\u00a0 Play that music in your mind when you want a lift of success and motivation.\u00a0 The resultant emotion will propel you out the door and to the gym.\u00a0 Or insert any other inspirational music which speaks to you.\u00a0 Movies are a great source to reference, because we all know them.\u00a0 You can pump up your confidence as well with music such as Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Superman.<\/p>\n

Here’s another wonderful use of this:\u00a0 play with sound to combat what we call “negative self talk.”\u00a0 That’s the little critical voice in your mind always telling you what you can’t accomplish, and spraying you with curses:\u00a0 “You’re lazy!,” “You’re stupid!,” “You’ll never get it done!” and so on.\u00a0 Imagine that voice to be a different voice, a silly voice, a cartoon voice.\u00a0 Bugs Bunny, Mickey Mouse, Elmer Fudd, something ridiculous.\u00a0 Hear the same words in that new, ridiculous, cartoon voice.\u00a0 Maybe it’s a squeaky, high pitched cartoon voice.\u00a0 “You’re lazy!”\u00a0 The impact on you is different, isn’t it?\u00a0 Now it’s absurd, and not to be taken seriously.\u00a0 The voice is a joke!<\/p>\n

Here’s what else you can do.\u00a0 Imagine that you’re at the controls of an old time radio with dials.\u00a0 Yes, kids, radios used to have dials.\u00a0 As you play those silly, cartoon voices telling you negative things about yourself and the world, just turn down the volume.\u00a0 Softer, softer, turn it down, turn it down, turn it down, until the voice is barely audible, then just a whisper on the wind, and then…gone.\u00a0 It’s nice to shut that critical voice up, isn’t it?<\/p>\n

The secret here, we can choose how we feel.\u00a0 Play with these simple techniques above involving sound to feel good now!<\/p>\n
