Positive Thinking
By Janet Broughton, The Positive Thinking Coach
Have you ever said or had it said to you “Think Positive”? Do we believe that just by saying that to someone they will suddenly change their mindset and start to see the glass half full? Not going to happen is it.

As The Positive Thinking Coach I am not going to give you a pair of rose coloured glasses and tell you that the world is fine and noting will go wrong again. I came to Positive Thinking both through my own innate positivity and by learning skills and techniques to manage my mindset which I now share with my clients.
I have faced challenges – I fell off a horse and broke my back, the first thing I said was “Tell me what to do and I’ll get better”, and when 14 months later the hospital consultant told me they had done all they could and the stoop and constant pain were permanent, I refused to accept it. I went in search of alternatives and I found Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT or Tapping) after 5 hours I walked straight and all pain had gone. I then trained to become a DRU Yoga teacher! I also had to share EFT with the world, so trained as an Advanced Practitioner and Master Trainer.
I qualified as a Life Coach, NeuroLinguistic Programming Practitioner and Colour Psychologist. I have now combined these and created The 60 day Positive Thinking Programme.
HOW CAN HAVING A POSITIVE MINDSET CHANGE YOUR LIFE?
Life happens and some of the events will be stressful, having a Positive Mindset means you can look at things from a different angle and even turn them on their head – as has often been said “falling off that horse was the best thing that ever happened to you!”
Having decided to emigrate to a hot country to open a Yoga Retreat, through corruption and fraud I became destitute – no home, job, or money and heavily in debt, instead of spending time, energy and money in trying to fight the local council – you can’t fight city hall – I knew that re-building my life was the greater use of my time and energy and by re-establishing my business, paying off all my debts and buying a house, I had trumped the small town, small minded, corrupt council.
With the onset of lockdown last year my business dried up, my clients could no longer come to me inperson and yoga classes stopped. My positive approach came to the fore – What can I do, sitting thinking about what I couldn’t do was not going to solve anything, I learnt new skills and within 10 days I was online teaching yoga and working with clients. I am now working globally including USA, Canada, New Zealand, Pakistan and across Europe.
A Positive Mindset empowers you to live the life of your choosing.
