30 Days to Create a New Habit

I recently came across some amazingly interesting information. I have heard and read on numerous occasions from various sources that it takes 30 days to create a new habit. In some of James Ray's teaching he says it takes 30 days or so to train or trick your subconscious mind into believing and acting upon our visions. Jack Canfield also teaches that it takes 30 days t create a new habit. But this information I am going to share with you will blow your mind!

The government was doing some tests regarding how the human body reacts to being in outer space with zero gravity. They had these special glasses made that made everything look upside down. They had a group of test subjects wear them for variant amounts of time; 20days, 30 days, and every other day for 30 days. Amazingly enough, what they found out was somewhere between the 25th and 30th day the test subject's brain had inverted the image automatically to make the image upside right! The people who wore the glasses for the 20 day period never did get their image inverted and the people who wore their glasses every other day for 30 days also did not get their image inverted. It was only the people who wore the glasses continually for 25-30 days.

Having worked in the optometry field for almost 12 years, this just about knocked my socks off. The human body is so amazing and the subconscious mind is so powerful and adaptable. It is designed to adapt and give us exactly what we need or "ask" for in order to survive. The trick is to "ask" for what we want, not what we don't want.

I want everybody to think about this information over the weekend and realize how amazing we all really are. Have a great weekend!
