Be Positive


How the physical and spiritual realms affect each other is an intriguing study. Science has studied this to some degree, and they have found that even just through positive thinking your body is actually physically strengthened and made healthier as a result.
The act of thinking positively signals a chain reaction in your body, which starts in your brain and then spreads throughout your entire physical form. This is why meditation, which is often focused on positive thoughts, is considered a form of healing in some ways, because the one meditating feels release from physical pressure or strain and experiences rejuvenation or feelings of relief.

Positive thinking is a spiritual act, a spiritual power. (Philippians 4:8.) Your spirit has to be in the right position for it to respond positively. Your mind will not make the decision to be positive if the spirit hasn't first yielded to that spirit of positiveness. Positive thinking is a spiritual power that anyone on Earth can tap into. It's available to anyone, and so are the effects and power of thinking positively.
Positive thinking not only affects your physical body, but it affects your physical surroundings and physical circumstances as well. When you're positive, it affects the way people react toward you, which in most cases would mean they react more amicably or friendly to you. (Proverbs 18:24a)

When you're reacting positively, it changes the spiritual atmosphere around you, which automatically makes people feel more comfortable in your presence. They feel at ease when around you; you become easy to approach and interact with. This makes others happier, which in turn lightens their personal loads or spiritual heaviness, which then makes their physical lives easier and more enjoyable. Positive thinking, which results in positive actions, causes a chain reaction of positive results, both spiritually and physically.
The mere act of thinking positively can transform your day from a stressful one into a calm and easy-paced one. Try it!
