Words are roots for all thoughts. What one thinks affects what one believes. What you believe affects your attitude. One’s attitude affects the person actions. How one acts influences relationships with others. Words can generate either positive or negative emotional energy.

The book Change to a Positive Mindset and Extend your Lifeline will introduce you to 11 ways to positively energize your brain and body. It will teach you how to write to train your brain to drain the pain caused by emotional stress.
