Jet, FYI the other one she mentioned was What the Bleep Do We Know.
I believe in what Kain is trying to convey here. Our minds have a tendency to take us down a pit of despair when we spend so much time obsessing over the negative instead of the positive. You have to say to yourself, what is my roll, what can I do to make this better, how can I change this aspect of my life and those things we can never rationalize just have to be something we accept as having some grand purpose eventually. I’ve read The Secret and I watched the DVD What the Bleep Do We Know, and all the main gist is positive thinking, but the books I found to be far more helpful is Deadly Emotions and a few things written by Beth Moore.
I do not believe that our negative thinking attracts tragedy on us like fires, floods, hurricanes, etc., but I do believe that often we put ourselves in situations that are not productive for us. You eat too much, you are going to get fat. You spend too much, you will end up in debt. If you feel like nothing is ever going to change, than it will never change. You have to do your part to make changes for the better and obtain a positive attitude towards that. And I do believe that our own negative emotions can cause us to feel physically sick.
But I am a Christian and look at those negative thinking patterns as the work of Satan. He wants you to miserable. If you let him, he will succeed and find far helpful and useful information written in the Bible, from the Bible and not some newly creative New Age thinking when it isn't. This pattern of thinking has always been there for us to choose.
