Describe how the power of positive self-talk aids in adopting healthy behaviors and changing habits to be more aligned with leading a healthy lifestyle. Include suggestions for recognizing self-talk and creating a habit of positive self-talk.

(Answers may vary.) Individuals who are able to reframe problems in a positive way are better able to maintain health and well-being. The internal dialogue, or self-talk a person has every day has great influence over behaviors based on whether this self-talk is positive or negative. Individuals may not notice whether their self-talk is positive or negative until they have monitored themselves for a time. First, noticing one's thoughts, and then stating them aloud will give a person a better idea of whether the phrase is destructive toward set goals. Learn to identify how you respond to your own behaviors by writing them down and analyzing whether they are positive or negative, helpful, and/or true. Challenge any negative thoughts and ask yourself if there is a more positive way of viewing them. Interrupt patterns of negative thoughts with positive behavior or focusing on positive memories. Consider whether there is any positive action you can take to reframe the behavior you are feeling badly about. Find humor in the situation and be kind to yourself. Notice when you are feeling good and are proud of yourself for choosing healthy behaviors and engaging in positive self-talk. Write these moments down and reward yourself with positive action such as buying new exercise gear or wear, or taking a moment in nature to meditate or exercise.
