How to control your thoughts?

Have you ever wondered about how much time you spend each day on the same thought going over it again and again. It’s like being on a merry go round that never stops!

Addictive

Our thoughts can be addictive and what may start off as idol chatter in the mind, often causes us to loose track of what we are doing and repeatedly wastes time and effectiveness.

How to control our thoughts

Many people do not know how to stop a thought and take control, which then becomes a habit that without help, is hard to break. How many times are you just about to fall sleep and a thought of ‘what if’ appears. Causing you spend many hours or even the whole night not sleeping, trying to solve that ‘what if’.

Time Audit

Why not document in a diary or journal how you spend your time each day. Note how much is spent being productive and working. Pay attention to how much time you waste daydreaming and/or being stuck on a thought or memory! You will no doubt be alarmed by how much time is wasted on being non productive. Once you become aware of this you can take control by recognising this habit and stoping unwanted thoughts.

Meditation, calms the mind, reduces stress, increases productivity and helps you sleep better too!

Why not try meditation

Many people are under the illusion that meditation is a way of totally blanking the mind for as long as you can, but it’s not. Meditation is a wonderful way to take control and teach the mind to just look and observe thoughts and not dwell on them. Of course if a thought is important or conducive to what you are doing, you may wish to expand upon it. However if the thought is not going to assist you, then just allow it to pass and teach yourself to note and disregard.

Advertisement Feature Do you own a conservatory not fit for purpose?

There are literally many 1000’s of home owners throughout the UK who own a conservatory, it is without doubt that a high majority are totally inefficient during the summer and winter months.

Is this you, do you own a conservatory that is really not fit for purpose?

A high number of conservatories installed during the late 80’s, 90’s and early 2000’s will have a

polycarbonate roof. A roof with no insulation value and virtually zero protection from direct sunlight.

This gives you a room which is far too hot during summer and

has a fridge effect in winter. You also have a roof which is difficult to keep clean as well as being a haven for insects.

The frustrating thing for many owners is that the conservatories are in a satisfactory condition, all double glazed with many years of life to offer. More and more home owners are opting to have a more thermally efficient roof installed.

High-Tech have the perfect

solution. A very popular option is to create a thermally efficient sky room by removing the existing roof. A timber frame roof will be constructed to building regulation standard. Timber joists are then reinforced to accept a glass lantern or flat roof light. Treated timber boarding and warm roof insulation is fitted along with new external UPVC roof line and guttering products. It is then made permanently water tight with our lifetime guaranteed flat roof system. The glass roof light is installed. Followed by internal installation of a new conventional plaster board ceiling along with lighting etc. The ceiling is plastered ready for painting. Thus, giving you a beautiful sky room orangery, oozing natural light. High-Tech will always remove the existing roof and comply with building regulations. High-Tech will create a luxurious living space. There are tiled roof conversions creating a more closed in style of room with no or limited natural light. An orangery style sky room with a glass lantern or sky light will not only offer the WOW factor, it will also give all the natural light required.

WE ARE PLEASED TO ANNOUNCE OUR SPRING DISCOUNT IS AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE.

Bring your conservatory back to life, add value to your home and enjoy the comforts.

We can assure you all quotations are carried outside and social distancing is being adhered to at all times. Please stay safe.
