Sticks and bones may break
my bones but names will never hurt me.
The little ditty children learn to
ward off feeling badly when attacked by mean name calling.
Mikey's stupid. Mary's an ugly, fat cow. Bobby's skeely-eyed! Suzy's so skinny she falls through cracks. You're crazy. Belong in a nut house! Tommy's worthless - a sissy, a queer, idiot, good for nothing and on and on.
Usually an audience of listers chime in becoming a chorus of cruel words. Like real sticks the blows hurt and and humiliate the minds and hearts of the prey.
Unfortunately, those negative words often stay with us into adulthood and can smart just as when we were children.
Be careful what you think, because your thoughts run your life. Proverbs 4:23
I'm preparing a lecture titled, The Power of Thoughts and Words, with a focus on how our physical bodies suffer from negative thoughts, I'm reminded to watch my words.
Words have an strong impact upon us as they roll around our brains, taking root, creating beliefs and self-images, life choices (personally and professionally).
Do you find you're your own worst critic? "I am so fat." "Stupid me!" (when we make a mistake). "I'll never get that job because I'm not good enough, smart enough, etc.) "I'll never meet the right loving partner because I'm (fill in the blank). "I'm not worthy to be loved, successful, whatever" etc. etc.
Those messages stuck in the brain's highway of electrical impulses shooting through it - through YOU, through your thoughts ulitamely creating stress and breaking down the physical body; ailments, diseases, pains.
I've been interested in how the brain works since I was a teen. I turn my thoughts inward to watch my brain's activity and feel the energy. Try it, it's amazing.
With the advancement of science in the study of the brain
there is documentation through scans and imaging of the brain that words heard and
spoken do need "light up" and run through various parts
of the brain impacting our thoughts, emotions and physicality.
A thought enters the brain as an image, a color, symbol and/or sound. You then translate it into language, choosing a word or words to describe what you experience.
If this doesn't get your thinking and change your mind, what will?

Words Can Change
Your Brain by Andrew Newberg, M.S. American neuroscientist and Director of Research at the Myrna
Brind Center for Integrative Medicine at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Mark Robert Waldman, Executive MBA Faculty at Loyola Marymount University teaching
the Neuro Leadership program and author of 14 books “Words can literary change your brain. Negative
words create a traffic jam in the brain. A single negative word can increase
the activity in our brain’s fear center. This releases dozens of
stress-producing hormones and neurotransmitters, which then interrupts our
brain’s function. Angry words send alarm messages through the brain and they
partially shut down the logic and reasoning centers locate in the frontal
lobes. Conversely, hostile language can disrupt specific genes that play a key part in the production of neurochemicals that protect us from stress.”
Ouch! That caused my thoughts to think of the many years of thinking and speaking and listening to negative, hurtful words.
In
the early 20th century Rosicrucian Max Heindel a Christian occultist, astrologer, mystic and author
devoted much time and effort to ascertaining the real causes of physical and
mental disorders. In his articles titled Occult Principles of Health and
Healing, he writes, “In man the brain is the link between the Spirit and the outside world. He can know nothing of the outside world except through the medium of the brain. The sense organs are merely carriers to the brain of impacts from without and the brain is the instrument, which interprets and coordinates those impacts.
It is known that thought breaks down and destroys nerve tissues.”
Florence Nightingale, pioneer for nursing, taught that the mental pain of the patient was equal to the physical. "It's a nurse's task to lift the spirits whenever possible."

19, 2018 Lily Dale, New York; workshop Thoughts/Telepathy.
Are you the originator of your thoughts or part of
a group thought transference? In this interactive and fun workshop, learn the
principles of clear thought projection and how to know when you receive
telepathic messages. Through fun, easy exercises and meditations, learn if you
are a stronger telepathic “sender” or “receiver,” and how to balance both. We
transfer thoughts daily whether we are aware of it or not. Our thoughts are the
mental language of what and how we think. Communicating with those who have
passed, and also our pets, is a telepathic conversation. Class exercises will
develop and heighten your telepathic skills. A fun and educational Telepathic
Quiz is included.

My favorite proof of this was the display years ago in Japan or China and how words changed water
Thank you, Julie for that reminder. I believe that test conducted with favorable results in Japan. It included the use of hands held over the water, sending energy into it. I do that every morning before driving any other beverage or eating by holding a glass in my hands in-toning 3 Oms and some positive words, then drink the glass of water. I have found a focus on my day's intentions with positive results.
