HOW IT WORKS
Human beings have what scientists call a “negativity bias” wherein we tend to focus more on the negative than the positive. This is an evolutionary trait that served our ancient ancestors well when they needed to be on the constant lookout for life threatening situations. But this doesn’t serve us very well today and it can color our mood and darken our outlook on the world.
vita+apps happy uses Attention Bias Modification also known as Cognitive Attention Bias Modification Training to help you learn to focus on and be rewarded for seeking out and finding positive stimuli. In alternate levels, vita+apps happy uses faces in multiple expressions – sad, angry and happy and asks you to find and fill your sun center with the positive images. Other levels ask you to find the positive words and get your fill of these.
Like all training or exercise programs, for vita+apps happy to really work – you need to work it and use it again and again and follow other directives as specified by the vita+apps Member program. After all, you’re trying to retain a brain system that’s been in development for 3.5 million years. It won’t take that long – but with practice and persistence, you’ll find it easier to focus on the good – even when life throws challenges your way."
