Changing Your Mind Habits Changes Your
Outlook and Reduces Stress According to Researhers
In several studies it has
been shown that modifying your mind habits with
the MindHabits stress relief games results
in a reduction of stress related to
social rejection and you feel less stressed
at work or school.*
"Scientific psychology
has shown that our minds continuously filter
our experiences, including our view of ourselves
and our interactions with others. This filter
determines how we feel about and react to the
world."†
The software works
by helping you shift your mind habits so that
you focus more on the positive elements around
you rather than focusing on the negativity in
your life.
This can dramatically
improve your outlook and reduce stress and anxiety.

Bullying can take a real toll on self esteem
but building self-esteem is a skill you can learn
and can be achieved by improving your "mind habits"
or mental patterns.
One of the main tactics of bullies is to use gossip,
slander and social isolation to demean and attack
their targets. This can result in stress due to the
very real concerns about how you are perceived by
coworkers and managers or by peers at school.
Many targets of bullying wonder "What did I
do to deserve this?", "Maybe I just need
to try even harder to show I am a dedicated worker".
You may have noticed these self-doubts appearing out
of nowhere having been confident before the bullying.
Your "mind habits" or mental patterns
have been interrupted.
In addition to the stress caused by bullying a good
deal of stress is caused by worrying about the usual
problems we all face, like putting food on the table
or finishing a project on time.
Negative thought
patterns are learned behaviors, but it is possible
to learn new behaviors and establish new patterns
...
Recent psychological research has shown that,
in large part, the stress we feel is due to anxiety
arising from social interactions, or rather,
the incredible amount of time and energy that goes
into worrying about what others think.
Some people seem to be generally more secure in themselves.
Their mind habits are such that they concern themselves
less with what others think. Their positive self-image
insulates them from concerns about social rejection.
The good news is that the rest of us, even
those with low self-esteem can learn to develop the
same mind habits as those with high self esteem.
As positive mind habits are practiced there is steady
improvement as you become more and more self-confident
and secure.
Negative thought patterns are learned behaviors,
but it is possible to learn new behaviors and establish
new patterns and change our predominantly negative
thoughts.
This mental retraining doesn't have to be hard work
or boring, in fact it can be a lot of fun. Imagine
you could play a computer game for five minutes each
morning that would help you feel more secure and confident
in yourself.
That's the whole idea behind Mind Habits.
It's a set of video games based on over a decade of
social intelligence research by Dr. Mark Baldwin,
and others, at McGill University.
Playing MindHabits
has been demonstrated to actually reduce the levels
of stress hormones in your body
Through playing these stress management games you
train your mind to focus on the positive elements
of your social interactions while giving less attention
to negativity (or perceived negativity) that can harm
your state of mind and self-esteem on a daily basis.
The Mind Habits video games do more than boost your
self-confidence and help reduce the impact of social
slights and criticism common to bullying. Playing
the MindHabits stress management games has been demonstrated
to actually reduce the levels of stress hormones in
your body.
"In a recent study, Mind Habits recruited 23
employees of a Montreal-based call centre to play
a stress game, which involved clicking on the one
smiling face among many frowning faces on a screen
as quickly as possible. These tests showed
an average 17 percent reduction in the stress hormone
cortisol compared to a control group that
played a similar game but without the smiling faces."
At only $19.99 the
MindHabits game is well worth it and gives you access
to all 100 levels, unlimited access and tracking tools
to chart your progress.
"There are many possible applications for this kind
of game," said Prof. Baldwin, "from helping people
cope with the social anxiety of public speaking or
meeting new people, to helping athletes concentrate
more on their game rather than worrying about performing
poorly."†
These award-winning stress relief games and
their beneficial effects have been written
about everywhere from ABC News to the National Review
of Medicine. At only $19.99 the MindHabits game is
well worth it and gives you access to all 100 levels,
unlimited access and tracking tools to chart your
progress. But you don't have to take my word for it
