Mary Lore, CEO of Managing Thought LLC, proposes that learning to think healthy thoughts, versus believing we are certain to get sick, can boost immunity and lead to living a healthy life
Cold and flu season is here. Many of us approach this time of year with thoughts of trepidation and impending doom. Mary Lore, award-winning author of Managing Thought, notes that many of us act as if we are victims of cold and flu season and we aren’t. Lore suggests that we may be victims of our thoughts about cold and flu season. She “prescribes” a dose of self-awareness and a few new powerful thoughts to “boost immunity” and enjoy a happy and healthy life.
“Many of us think of the cold and flu season with certainty—as if it’s reality—and it is not reality,” states Lore. “It is the reality we have created for ourselves. We can start looking at our thoughts instead of from our thoughts and focus on what we want (good health and a strong immune system) instead of what we don’t want (cold and flu).
If you are thinking thoughts such as 'I get a cold every November,' or 'Whenever I get a cold, it always turns into bronchitis,' or 'When the kids come home sick, it’s just a matter of time before I catch it,' you are focused on what you don’t want. You are also instructing your brain to cause your body to get a cold every November, get bronchitis, and get sick with whatever your kids bring home. And your brain has no instructions to follow to help you cultivate health or strengthen your immune system. It’s too busy looking for evidence that it’s flu season!”
“When our brain receives instruction", she states, "it searches for opportunities to make what we want a reality, and if our thoughts are focused on getting sick, that can become our reality.”
Lore acknowledges that there are those of us, such as infants, children, pregnant women, the elderly, and others with compromised immune systems who are susceptible to colds and flu and may require medical advice, professional diagnosis, opinion, and treatment. The rest of us, she says, can start noticing if our thoughts are moving us in the direction of good health or not.
Lore advises, “When you catch yourself thinking ‘cold and flu season’ thoughts, take a moment to replace them with ‘great health and strong immune system’ thoughts and see what happens.”
Lore suggests that thoughts such as I drink eight glasses of water a day and I add lemon juice to my water; I wonder what vegetables I can eat for lunch?; Which cup of coffee can I replace with green tea?; and Where can I take my walk today and get some fresh air? keep us focused on what we want. “You can also choose thoughts," states Lore, "that focus on taking time to be quiet each day, relaxing, laughing, practicing thankfulness, or doing the things you love to do which help cultivate health and happiness. With self-awareness and powerful thoughts, we can lose the 'cold and flu season', boost our immunity and enjoy a happy and a healthy life."
