THOUGHT STOPPING - (Stop & Swap)

Thought stopping is a very simple yet effective way to stop an unproductive or negative thought from continuing to develop. The entire process is like this. As soon as a negative or unproductive thought enters your mind or you are thinking in a negative way, simply say to yourself out loud “stop” or “cancel” and watch the unproductive or negative thought fade away. Even though this seems very simple, practice it in your own life and you’ll find it very helpful. Also, when you find a negative influence or statement coming to you from other people or another outside source, instead of accepting it and letting it become part of your programming, stop it by saying out loud, “cancel, cancel”. This gives you subconscious the ability to correct the negative and replace it with the appropriate positive programming.
