Positivity: Training our Brains

 

This week we have been learning more about optimism and the role our brains work to process emotions.

We learnt about Negativity Bias, that our brains are programmed to focus on negatives (it's what helped our ancestors survive!). We have to train our brains to focus on positives or silver linings. 

Good news! Thanks to neuroplasticity we can practice positive thinking to get better at it - like working out a muscle!

 

We created our own positive messages for our fridges at home. A reminder that we can focus on positives and our brains just need to practice!
