How is Innate Health any different than positive thinking?

The fact that people feel better when they think positively is something everyone can get behind. But unless you are a naturally positive thinker in your habits of thought, it is a slippery slope to try control your thinking to make it more positive. This creates the practice of thought management, which in itself is unsustainable and effortful. Sometimes you get the feeling that people who are positive thinkers are trying to slap a positive thought over what they see as a negative reality.
The difference between what we do and positive thinking is the understanding that when we're not trying to think positive, we can relax into a natural state of wellbeing. A state of wellbeing is a positive feeling that naturally comes when our minds quiet down. When we quiet down in our heads, we don’t need to force a positive feeling. (From Three Principles Global Community, www.3pgc.org) Back to About/FAQ
