Mind wellness is more than mental health. It is positivity, it is attitude, and it is acknowledging that each of your five senses contributes to wellness. Creativity is also an important element to mind wellness, and it exists in everyone. Mind wellness is an area that can and will greatly influence all of the other areas of a wellness treatment plan. It does not require mega-intelligence or intellect, though some of those goals may very well be included in a client's plan.
It is very important to make the distinction here between layman's mind wellness goals and clinical mental health issues that require a professional referral. Unless you have the education and/or license, do not diagnose or attempt to treat a client in a clinical manner. Furthermore, if you are the client and your wellness coach is claiming he or she can "fix" schizophrenia or chemical imbalances or other such promises without having the necessary educational and professional licenses as proof of privilege to practice, you should run from him or her as quickly as possible because it is a scam.
Affirmations
Affirmations are a huge, important tool in mind wellness. With them, clients can quite literally reprogram their mind and change negative behaviors. These are not subliminal messages because the person who uses affirmations has to be active in saying them, writing them, thinking them. The major obstacle to get past is: How can this work? The second is: This feels weird. Saying positive messages to yourself, looking at yourself in the mirror to say them, and writing them repeatedly all seem rather awkward or even juvenile at first. But the longer one does them, the more belief is behind them and behaviors do start to change.
Affirmations can be designed around nearly any topic. Sometimes it can take a few tries for clients to find one that they really connect with, so do not be put off if the first few cause wrinkled noses. It is also okay to teach clients how to make affirmations on their own, so they can try different kinds to find one that resonates with them personally, professionally, and regarding whatever area of life they choose to work on.

NAMBA: A VILLAGE WHERE MANNA STILL FALLS.

Namba is a small and drought-stricken village in Southern part of Angola, a Seventh Day Adventist missionary who spent nearly a lifetime in Africa established a mission in this village. This white missionary left and for some years the mission was under the care of a local director. One year the rains failed to come, the crops did not grow, and the mission stores were emptied and no money to buy food if it could have been found. The mission director had been away for some weeks on a trip visiting distant mission schools. The believers at the Missao Adventista da Namba came to the end of their resources and food supply. The director's wife called the families together and told them the situation. Then she read to the people the promises of the Lord and told them of the manna which had been sent by God to His people in the time of Moses, assuring them that God could send them food in the same way, if necessary. After prayer, a little girl, about five years of...

The nature of mindsets, part 1.The deeper reason to examine our mindsets is so we can mount a self-aware response to the great challenges of our day. We simply can’t respond to our personal and global problems in a meaningful way unless we also learn how to examine our mindsets as an integral part of how we live our lives

The nature of mindsets by Ash Buchanan A primer on how our underlying beliefs, attitudes and assumptions create our everyday lives — and our shared world Mindsets shape the lives we lead, the actions we take and the future possibilities of the world we live in. In this primer, we provide an overview of what mindsets are, why they matter and explore a range of practices you can use to be mindful about how and why you use them. What is a Mindset? “Your beliefs become your thoughts, your thoughts become your words, your words become your actions, your actions become your habits, your habits become your values, your values become your destiny.” — Mahatma Gandhi Eight principles can be used to describe the underlying nature of mindsets. 1) Mindsets are habits of mind The word mindset was first used in the 1930’s to mean “habits of mind formed by previous experience.” In simple terms, mindsets are deeply held beliefs, attitudes and assumptions we create about who we are and h...

HOW PRAYING IN TONGUES CAN BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

It has been reported by medical science recently that praying can affect a sick person’s outcome for the better. One study showed that even when the sick person did not know people were praying for him/her, their health improved. As believers, we know personally what prayer has done for us in our times of sickness (Js. 5:15-16). But did you know that “praying in tongues” can actually make you healthier? Speaking in Tongues Can Boost Your Immune System A few years ago, a brain surgeon at Oral Roberts University did a study of what happens in the brain when people pray in tongues. He found that they secreted two chemicals that can boost the immune system by 35-40%! Think about the effects this can have on opportunistic diseases such as cancer. God created the immune system to be our defense against harmful invaders: bacterial, viral, fungal, parasitic, and even malignant. It is when the immune system is weakened that such pathogens can attack and overwhelm our bodies. We all know tha...
