Getting Rid of Bad Habits for Good
Our understanding of how the neurons in the brain work together to create patterns of behavior date back to the work done by Donald Hebb more than 50 years ago. Hebb coined the phrase "Neurons that fire together, wire together." If you continually have a certain thought pattern or behavior repeated over time, then the neurons in the brain strengthen. and habits get formed.
Habits are patterns that create "grooves" or neural pathways in the brain, just like ruts or paths in a road. The deeper the groove, the less likely we are to consciously think about that habit.
For example, when you take the same route somewhere on a regular basis, you start to operate on a subconscious level, and sometimes find that you arrive at your destination and don't even realize how you got there!
Habits can be great in many instances. When we play sports, we can create the habit of correctly shooting the ball or swinging the club through constant practice until we no longer have to consciously think about what we're doing, because the motion becomes automatic.
Practice makes perfect. But, what if we've been practicing to perfection, and the habits are bad? The ones that we need to change? The brain has no way of distinguishing between a "good" habit or a "bad" habit when it creates these neural pathways. When you do anything on a regular basis, good or bad, you're strengthening and typing those neurons together. That's why bad habits can sometimes be very hard to change, no matter how much we want to on a conscious level.
The key to making the changes you want to make, breaking bad habits and creating new good ones, is to consciously think about things differently. This will create new pathways. Practice does makes perfect, and practice also makes permanent. If you practice what you want instead of what you intend, you can change your life for the better!
It's like rehearsing for a play - the play you WANT to be in!
The neurons in our brain are constantly changing, dependent on what we are thinking or the habits we practice on a daily basis. If we learn to use certain skills then we can actually develop our neural networks to create that groove, so that we can make lifestyle changes more easily and automatically than ever!
Our thoughts really do create our reality, and when we do it with purpose
and imagination, it's called Creative Visualization and Guided Meditation, and it really works. You can do it yourself, but , it takes a long time and a lot of discipline to do it correctly.
The easiest way to do it is with BrainTap Technologies' MindFit headset with an audio library of 677 audio titles specifically designed to help you mentally rehearse in life what you want. All you need to do is sit back, relax and allow the technology to do the work for you! You listen to beautiful, scientifically designed music, and words that are all about the habits and the life that you want to create.
You can do this with the headset - which is like getting a Mercedes - or you can just do the audio portion - and that's like getting a fully loaded
Camry. Both are excellent, and will get you where you're going.
