SECRET HEALING SERIES- 5
IMPLEMENTING PLACEBO EFFECT INTO DAILY LIFE
In a recent and latest study in the Psychology field, Simply thinking that you got a happy and good night's sleep can make your brain work better, according to new research.
The phenomenon is thought to be a result of the placebo effect – which normally occurs in patients who are given inactive drugs they believe to be pharmaceuticals, leading to improvements in their health.
You can trick yourself and harness the power of the placebo effect all on your own. Here are three tricks to try:
1- BE MORE PRODUCTIVE
The students in the placebo sleep study who thought they’d slept well were sharper when it came to cognitive function the next day. Even if you didn’t sleep a solid eight hours, try to focus on how much rest you did get rather than stressing about the hour you lay awake. Telling yourself that you feel rested—rather than whining about how tired you are—may actually make for a more productive day. Lying to yourself for the win! So don't forget to say daily and always
I enjoy deep refreshing sleep every night.
2- GET FITTER
An unusual study on placebo effect and fitness found that people who were told they were getting exercise in their daily lives—in this case, a group of hotel maids—actually became healthier without increasing their activity outside their jobs. In one month, the subjects lost an average of two pounds, lowered their blood pressure, and improved their body fat percentages. (This 2007 study inspired the Colorado College researchers to look at placebo sleep, according to Slate.) Now, this isn't an excuse to ditch working out altogether, but during those periods when you just really don't have time for the gym, your health may benefit from making a list of all the ways you stay active during the day, like cleaning the house, taking the stairs, playing with your kids, or walking the dog.
3- FEEL HAPPIER
“Thinking positively, which is an extension of the placebo effect, is related to a whole host of good health outcomes,” says Erdal. Practicing optimism—rather than focusing on the negatives—does have the power to make you feel better on a daily basis.
One technique that can help:
Create an optimistic collage. Pull together photos that give you something to look forward to (say, pictures of your dream vacation spot). Hang them near the bathroom mirror or use them as your computer screen saver so that you see them several times a day.
