At the core of all our thoughts, feelings and actions is the communication of neurons and Brain waves are electrical pulses from them communicating with each other. However, brainwaves are a topic for another day. Today’s topic is Affirmations: Affirmations are great for creating positive self talk. Adding this small little habit could create big changes. Think of it as a few inches off course in space could cause you to miss your destination by hundreds of miles. Positive affirmations can reprogram our thinking so that, over time, we begin to think and act differently. Some people might think that affirmations are just words and won't be useful. In any case, we are already using negative affirmations! Does “I am stupid, I am scared or I am
To send a message, a neuron will send a ripple of electrical energy down its axon. This ripple is called "action potential." The way it works is by changing the chemical makeup of the axon's negatively charged interior. Positively charged sodium ions move into the cell and negatively charged potassium ions move out, then the ions move to their original positions. This produces a wave of positively charged
The brain is made up of neurons. The features that make up the neurons are dendrites which receive signals from other neurons. Another part of the neuron is the axon which holds microfibers that carry information inside the neuron from the detricals to the endpoints of the neurons called terminal branches. The neurons in the brain communicate with one another through neurotransmitters that release chemicals.
The group participated in learning how to give themselves and others positive affirmations. The group was encouraged to give their selves positive affirmations daily. The group was given a handout on positive affirmations. The group played Bingo for recreation.

Everything we do is a product of neural communication, whether that be reacting to senses or feeling emotions, it is all due to us having neural communication through millions of neurons passing small electrical signals throughout the body through such pathways as the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system and passing information to and from the brain. These ‘’neurons’’ are made up of Dendrites which are connected to a cell body, or also known as the soma, these are tree-like feathery filament ‘’message receivers’’ that collect these messages from other neurons it is connected to, neurons are connected through a dendrite to axon terminal connections and pass these ‘’messages’’ through the body as action potentials.
It is not mentally not looking at circumstances with eyes that see only what you want to see”. In other words using Positive Self-Talk shows us the truth on real situations. For example: you were trying out for the school volleyball team and you messed up on bumping the ball, when the negative thoughts occur that is when the positive self talk will take place “ok I’m now going to focus on what I need to complete in order to make it on the team.” There is a way in which you can develop a positive self talk habit, there are 3 steps and the first one is “Mantra”, choose a mantra and find a positive self talk for example; “I feel strong”. This positive self talk will encourage you to feel motivated. The second step is “Practice Multiple Scenarios”after using the positive self talk from step one, repeat the line so you can practice having it sink in your brain. It will help you during real situations in sports a example for this step is “Anything can happen, and I’m definitely not out of this, Don’t let up”. Finally, the last step called “Creating A Positive Mental Image Or Visualization” this technique can help you create a visual picture on what you are doing and saying This powerful combination will create a positive message.
I am always exercising Leadership in and outside of school. I have always led or motivated others. For example, I am the Alto Section Leader in Chorus here at school. Every time I am with the Chorus, I am doing my best to help my section improve. I always try to find solutions to the problems we face. Another example is at my church. My Father and I teach a class at my church. We teach 4th and 5th graders who haven't made all of their sacraments at the right age.

The client presented as well groomed. The client was in an anxious mood aeb stating, “I crossed them out triggers, it made me think of my dad while he was drinking and that makes me feel I want a drink.” The client shared that self-affirmation for him is to know what you believe about yourself. The client reported that both self-love and compassion are very important to have self-affirmation as you need to not shame yourself or hate yourself. The client discussed with the peers that he needs to have self-regulation to be able to know your thoughts, feelings, and actions. The client stated, “I have negative self-affirmation as my father used to call me fat, ugly, and annoying, while I have positive self-affirmation about having nice hair and
It was the 17th century British scientist Thomas Willis who recognized that the custard like tissue of the brain was where our mental world existed. The brain is an electric organ. Now we know that instead of animal spirits, voltage spikes travel through it and out into the body’s nervous system.
The individual cells within the brain, the neurons, release a whole array of chemical signals in communication with one
I love the meaning of your name. I find hope to be one of the positive fundamentals in living life. Praying for healing for your dad. That is great that you have recovered from a deathly sickness. I myself have Asthma and a couple of years ago ended up in the hospital on a bilevel positive airway pressure (BiPap) machine, which forcing oxygen into the lungs. Although I have had Asthma my whole life, I still take maintenance medications every day.
* Electrocenphalogram- Detects electrical activity in the brain while awake or asleep. The brain cells communicate 24/7 via electrical impulses.
“The Human Brain”, by myPerspectives, is an informative article that claims that the brain is a complex organ that is truly impressive. The brain is a key part of the central nervous system, that controls the entire body’s activities, to simple things such as breathing. These actions are fired through neurons, that quickly travel through the spinal cord. Surprisingly, the brain transmits these messages at an unimaginable rate, at 150 miles per hour, through 85 billion cells, called neurons. These neurons can form up to 10,000 synapses, or connections to each other. By itself, the brain can create billions of synapses, which change the structure of the brain every time new information is learned. However, there is still much that scientists
Have you ever thought to yourself before a game ‘wow I’m going to lose”, “I’m not good enough”, “I’m terrible at this” which was overexaggerating and de-motivating? Negative self-talk can affect your performance whether this is a decrease in your enjoyment, increase in your frustration and cause you to have increased stress or anxiety about your performance. The positive aspect about negative thoughts is that it is a learned behaviour which can be changed because if you can learn to be negative you can learn to be positive. The beneficial effect of self-talk on cognitive anxiety is consistent with theoretical statements that self-talk is the core of anxiety. Also, findings that by reducing negative or anxious self-talk results in less anxious states. This makes a lot of sense as have you ever been down on yourself and suddenly either yourself or someone else has said “you need to stop this and be happier” and all of a sudden, your entire mood changes and you are. One way to stop negative self-talk is to recognise your negative thought, have a cue to stop you whether this be saying “stop” or “no” and then take a deep breath and replace it with a rational, constructive thought.
