P: Yes I agree, but that is just a start. Going further

we can notice that we don't need to repeat the mantra

" all is one. " Just noting what we're feeling now, and

remembering how we want to feel will change it. We have

a " nearly' omnipotent brain as far as changing itself

and the body. Ask and you shall receive. Read the

research below:

 

 

Increased Muscle Strength!-Experiment

 

 

In a fascinating experiment, researchers at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation

discovered that a muscle can be strengthened just by thinking about exercising

it.

 

For 12 weeks (five minutes a day, five days per week) a team of 30 healthy young

adults imagined either using the muscle of their little finger or of their elbow

flexor. Dr. Vinoth Ranganathan and his team asked the participants to think as

strongly as they could about moving the muscle being tested, to make the

imaginary movement as real as they could.

 

Compared to a control group – that did no imaginary exercises and showed no

strength gains – the little-finger group increased their pinky muscle strength

by 35%. The other group increased elbow strength by 13.4%.

 

 

What's more, brain scans taken after the study showed greater and more focused

activity in the prefrontal cortex than before. The researchers said strength

gains were due to improvements in the brain's ability to signal muscle.3

 

Pay attention to your breathing. Is it slow and deep, or quick and shallow? Is

your belly expanding and contracting, or is your chest doing all the work?

 

Now if you want to learn more techniques how to improve

your brain, read the whole article clicking on the link

and the end of this post.

 

So, If your brain can increase your muscle mass by visualizing

an exercise, imagine how much faster it can change your mood

if you keep imagining how you want to feel. Don't debate with

yourself, just picture it, and it will be done.

This guy on t.v. said playing table tennis is one of the best brain exercise as

one must make instant decisions accounting for spin, etc.

that's a good point. every advaita retreat and satsang should have a ping pong

table in the back somewhere.
