Mental training for adults

"Watch your thoughts,

because they become words.

Watch your words,

because they become actions.

Watch your actions,

because they become habits.

Watch your habits,

because they become your character.

Watch your character,

because they will be yours

Fate . "

Talmud

What is mental training for adults?

Mental training is made up of the word mental, which means mind - thinking - thought, and the word training , i.e. exercise. Which means like "Practice and train  yours  Mind and  your thoughts."

What does that mean now?

Anyone who feels that something is not going "smoothly" in their own life can get help with the help of various mental training techniques .

Do not dream your life,

but live  Your dream!

Because dreams set goals  

and you can achieve goals!

Thommaso Campanella

How is the mental training carried out?

Relaxation is brought into the body so that the inner peace and serenity is felt or to be able to listen to your own thoughts, words and actions.To perceive tension patterns in the body that are related to the "topic".

 

There are various relaxation techniques for this:

  1. In the first step , the lived life , the own present is recognized .

  2. The second step is to try to understand the past , no matter how difficult it was, to reconcile with it and to make peace with the past . A clear one is thus achieved. The own roots, the origin is accepted.

  3. In the third step , the bridge to the new is built. Being able to really imagine the vision, the image of the future as an image, learn to feel the feeling and also perceive the body how it feels with the new image of life - are the tension patterns still noticeable? These are the most important areas of the third step.

  4. In the fourth step , the NEW is implemented and the empathy skills are worked on.

You must not

always have a plan.

Sometimes you just have to

breathe, trust, let go and see what happens.
