Stop Blushing Tips: From My Own Personal Experience

 Stop Blushing Tips: From My Own Personal Experience

The tips I am sharing in this article about how to stop blushing are from my own personal experiences. I struggled with chronic facial blushing right though my teenage years until my early twenties when I finally shock it off and gain control, not just over my blushing problem but I gain personal power over my life.

The number one stop blushing tips I can give to you is to constantly ask yourself and answer these two questions: 1. What are you focused on right now? And 2. What could you focus on instead?

I know this may sound simple, however don’t make the mistake of dismissing this powerful technique before at least giving it ago.

Let me explain why asking these questions are so powerful in your quest to stop blushing or to change any part of your life for that matter.

You whatever you focus on, you get in life. If you focus on how hard something is or how painful it is then you will simple get more of it. Don’t take my word for it, try this out on a friend and you will start to see what i mean.

Ask your friend to look around the room they are sitting in for a few seconds and look for all objects that are blue (or any other colour you chose). Now ask your friend to close their eyes and then ask them to tell you all the object in the room that are red (or another colour, different from the one you told them to focus on), now observe how many things they can tell you that are red.

Most likely they will struggle to come up with any, even though there are many objects in teh room that are red. Why is this?

Our minds are extremely powerful and our senses take in a huge amount of data every second. Our subconscious mind the part of you that makes sure your heart keeps beating, your lungs breath without effort and all the other tasks our body do during the day and night is estimated to be able to process millions of bits of information every second, however our conscious mind can only handle a few hundred bits of information per second.

This means that our minds are constantly deleting the information around us that we don’t focus on. Another example of this process inn action is when you buy a new car. If you have ever set your mind on a certain type of car and colour, etc you will notice that they start to show up all over that place as before you didn’t notice as many before. You start seeing the car you have set your mind one more because you have given a command to your subconscious to look out for it.

So how does this relate to your blushing problem, next time you start blushing or feel it coming on, think to yourself “what are you focusing on at the moment?” chances are you are focused on something you don’t want like “I hope no one notices I am blushing” or “This always happens to me, why can’t I stop blushing”.

If you change your focus you will change what you see and get and therefore change the way you react in situations that used to make you blush.

Try this, if you know you are about to enter a potential situation where you would normally blush try focussing on something you are grateful for, it could be as simple as the air you breathe, the warmth of the sun, the food you have to eat, or the awesome time you are about to have meeting someone new.
