Your sense of control also has an impact on your wellness.

The three Ps of Positivity

1. Permanence: positive things happen for long term gain, the negative things has less permanence.
2. Pervasiveness: (creaping into other areas) setbacks only apply to the area of my life that they happen to. The positive individual will localize this and deal with it as an individual item. The negative person will let it effect many other things in their day/life.
3. Personalisation: View the world in a way that when positive events happen, they recognize their role in making them happen. When negative things happen, they look at their roll, but also look at the environment in which they happen.

Another piece of physiological health:

The ABCDE approach, think of an emotional avalanche

Adversity: frustrating trigger situation

Belief: that creates the consequence

Consequence: emotion

Dispute: if you can find alternative beliefs that are not as negative the consequence can support wellness

Energy (activation): the more successful you are with disputing your beliefs the more energy you will have in reserve.
