Hello everyone,
This week I thought I’d mention another way to deal with negative or intrusive thoughts.
Treat them as if they are negative friends – people who mean well and want the best for you, but people who you would be wise to stay away from and not listen to.
You can tell a voice of a negative friend because their words feel unpleasant to listen to. The same goes for negative thoughts. The discomfort of negative thoughts is a signal that they are not giving you any good advice, and it would be in your best interests not to take them seriously. They feel dark because they are thoughts that don’t come from your natural powerful light, and usually they have come through some sort of conditioning.
Negative thoughts never have to be fought against, but it does help to recognise that these energies are not effective givers of advice. Just like the negative friend, they think they are saying what is best, but really they are not helping at all. If anything, they are doing the opposite of helping.
Once a painful thought is recognised as not a useful helper, it can be allowed to pass through, or it can be disregarded as false, and replaced by any affirmative or powerful thought of your choosing.
To create space for more powerful, abundant or creative thoughts, it can help to first open yourself up to the broadest, freest part of yourself. Ask yourself a question like: “If I knew I was one with the universe around me, how would I feel?”. This might help to create some space and take attention away from a mind that feels closed, small and cut-off from abundant power.
I hope everyone has a great Christmas this year. The book I mentioned I was working on probably won’t be finished by the end of the year, but if anyone has children aged 7 or above, feel free to check out my full “A Tale Of Two Ninja Kids” series below. It’s a martial arts adventure series for the whole family, which brings in some of the deeper messages on how to deal with thoughts, emotions, and how to become more in alignment with who you truly are.
