Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life

Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life.
By Graham Cooke

In a Kingdom lifestyle, we don’t deal with our negatives. We get to ignore them because Jesus has already dealt with them.

He sent negative things packing and nobody in the Godhead is going to bring them back. However, this does not mean we don’t like to occasionally bring them back.

The key to kingdom living is learning to flip the switch in our own thinking so that our lives match what God has already promised us
We are accustomed to seeing ourselves as we are in the world. But in Christ, different perceptions, perspectives, and rules apply.

When you read the the sermon on the mount, you catch Jesus saying, “you have heard it said but now I say,” multiple times. This is apparently His way of saying “FLIP THE SWITCH!”

He’s addressing what we have been taught to do and how to think by both the world’s and religion’s standard. He’s confronting our subtle paradigms and beliefs. And He is saying, “We never said that, this is what we are actually saying. Let me introduce you to how My Father’s Kingdom works.”

For many of us, we are still in process of making this switch. We are learning and unlearning, replacing what we formerly thought to be true with the reality of His Kingdom.
It’s like flipping a light switch when you enter a dark room. This is exactly what His truth does, it brings us into the light so that we can experience more of His life. How often do we say: “Awe the light just switched on, now I get it”? These are the epiphanies that change our thinking and renew our minds. They upgrade our perception and give us a new lens to see.

Once the switch is flipped and His light comes on, we see things from His perspective. We are directly connected to the truth that always sets us free, releasing blessings and promises into our lives.

Here is one of the more simple ways to flip the switch from day to day.
You can’t have a negative in your life without the opposite also being there.

So, when you’re hit with a negative thought or feeling, take a pause and ask Holy Spirit what the opposite of that particular negative is. Once the epitome of it arrives in your thoughts, dwell on it for at least a minute. Simply by “dwelling on something that is pure and holy” and POSITIVE, you’re effectively flipping the switch...

Hypnosis as a Treatment of Anxiety

Anxiety Treatment There are few things worse than not feeling like yourself because of mental health struggles. Some people will never live through this experience. But the reality is,  20 percent  of the population suffers from mental illness. I am in that 20 percent. There have been three distinct times in my life where I haven't felt like me: The first time it happened, my grandma had passed away, and I began experiencing OCD symptoms around the age of 10. Back then, therapy ended up helping me break the cycle. Then, when I was in a second semester sophomore in college, and I fell into a spiral of insomnia, anxiety, OCD, and depression caused by heartbreak. Family financial issues played a part in my turmoil too, and I felt like I was losing the joyful, calm, sleep-loving person I had been. I had disassociated from myself, and all I wanted to be was the person before the trauma. Luckily I went into therapy and (at first reluctantly) started on an antidepressant. For about seve

7 expert tips on how to cope with mental health during the covid-19 pandemic

Advice from the experts Maintain regular rhythms: wake up, eat and go to sleep at the same time you normally would. Find a project to keep yourself going, whether that’s work, learning something new or reading Proust. Maintain connections with others by phone or online, and exercise once a day, preferably in green space, and always while social distancing. Richard Bentall, clinical psychologist, University of Sheffield, UK   Limit your exposure to media stories about the pandemic – especially those with experts’ views about what is going to happen over the next three months – because it can cause anxiety. Neil Greenberg, psychiatrist, King’s College London   Think about the things you have done in the past that have helped you to feel a sense of calm and stability. For me, it’s reading. That is something I have always enjoyed, that I haven’t often had time to do and I’m able to make space for now – in the silence of being at home.
