Inspired by a study cited in WebMD Medscape Today, Seligman(2002) observed exposure to uncontrollable negatiave events leads to helplessness. We become passive and prone to physical ailments. The shift from helplessness to learned optimism may be aided by a simple exercise.
Start by projecting one month into the future...what would you like to see? Next, how would you think & behave to reach that goal, from the perspective of a victim...of a survivor? Notice the differences and which attitude is most helpful.
This exercise is helpful when you or someone you know is actively or recently removed from an abusive situation or family trauma, including foster children. Learned optimism, organic optimism,is effortless from a place of pure awareness. To help find that peaceful place of pure awareness within yourself, take a 15-minute trip via guided imagery offered as a free MP3 download on the Survivor website at the Pure Awareness menu tab.
