Can Posters Work As Pattern Interrupts In Changing Moods?
My "Inspirational Flashcards" create what’s called “A Pattern Interrupt” ... to help stop limiting beliefs.
“Thought Intervention” - creating a jiggling affect upon a person’s tightly held negative beliefs - then jumpstarting a new positive pattern of thought. ...negative thoughts about this one solo circumstance can create a downward spiral.
Happily, MRI’s have also shown that when a person starts to think happy thoughts, they can send a surge of blood flowing into brain regions associated with happiness (the left prefrontal cortex) - thereby literally refueling your positivity.
When you put words within pictures, your brain immediately perks up in an effort to make sense of how/why these words relate to the picture - thereby stimulating more neuron activity. The more neurons you have firing up, the greater the chance that your brain is paying attention and recording what it is perceiving. This is why using flashcards with pictures help people to learn info better!
Pinterest and Instagram have also wildly grown in their usership - both of which are also huge aggregates for happiness-boosting posters.
