How to let go of negative thoughts and emotions

Many people are concerned over their own negative thought patterns and emotions. The universal worry is that these negative thoughts will manifest themselves as unpleasant events eventually. How can we let go of negative thought and emotion?

When it comes to negative thoughts, we must remember that thought in and of itself has very little substance. Our mind is always thinking, and if every thought manifested itself, we’d all have nervous breakdowns! Thoughts are fleeting creations – they arise, take form, and dissipate. Imagine your exhalations on a cold winter day. You can see your breath for only a little while before it evaporates. Thoughts themselves have about as much form and impact as your breath – unless we feed them with energy.

We can give a thought energy by reacting to it with emotion – thus generating more thought and more emotion. Have you ever gotten yourself all worked up over an imaginary scenario, such as losing your job or discovering a cheating spouse? We can feed a thought with our energy so that it becomes very substantial. If we hold a thought and the accompanying emotional energy for 68 seconds or more, according to Jerry and Esther Hicks, we begin manifesting accordingly.

Without emotional energy, thoughts simply arise and dissipate, just like our breath.

What happens when we react to a thought with fear? We may find ourselves in a negative thought and immediately follow up with “Oh no, I shouldn’t be thinking this! I’m thinking negatively. Quick, let’s think of a positive affirmation.” Fear is a powerful reaction. What we resist, persists. Resistance is just another way of directing energy. If, for example, positive affirmations are a means of resisting a negative thought, then they can in fact feed energy into the very thought pattern they are meant to dispel.

It’s far more effective to observe negative thoughts than to resist them. Observation allows us to step away from the thought, rather than feeding it with emotional energy. Negative emotion generally arises as a reaction to a thought. If we cease reacting, we can let go of negative emotion as well as thought. Imagine sitting next to your stream of thoughts as if it were a river flowing by. We are not pulled along by the currents in that river because we are merely standing by and watching. We’re not jumping in for a swim.

In order to let go of negative thought and emotion, we don’t have to control our thoughts. We don’t have to suppress our emotions. Our mind does so much thinking that it would be impossible to do so, anyway. We are constantly thinking, feeling beings. Instead of resisting our negative thoughts and emotions, we observe. Through observation, we can begin to select the thoughts to which we give emotional energy. We gift our positive thoughts with an appropriate emotional reaction. In this way, we give our chosen thought substance, so that we will attract like resonances into our lives. The rest we simply observe, knowing that they will dissipate harmlessly without consequence.

Andrea

How To Be Patient

The overwhelming message I’ve recently received through several different life situations is: “Be patient.”

Yuck.

I don’t like being patient. Really, who does? To me, exhibiting patience means sitting and waiting for life circumstances beyond my control to unfold. In other words, I find patience highly disempowering. I am the conscious creator of my experience, after all, right? Sitting and waiting for anything very much goes against that concept, and will drive me nuts in no time.

The message came over and over again. So I finally had a little chat with my Guides about this concept of patience.

The “sitting and waiting” notion of patience is indeed one that arises out of lack consciousness. It implies that there is something we don’t have or can’t have right now. And of course, that there’s nothing we can do about it but sit tight and hope for the best. Like I said before – yuck.

So here’s the revised concept of patience I received from my Guides.

There is not a single thing we are lacking right now. We already have everything. If we really get down to it, everything is available to us right now – which means there’s nothing that we possibly need to sit and wait around for, right? There’s nothing that we’ll have in two weeks or two months or two years that isn’t ours right in this moment.

Not only that, but if we ask for a desired outcome that aligns with our highest good, we will receive it.

Patience is about embracing this truth, and then getting the heck out of the way of the manifestation process!

If there’s something to be patient about, we’ve already expressed our intentions and desired outcomes to the Universe. We’ve already said that we want that new job, that we want to find our dream home or that we’d like to be accepted to a certain college. We’ve already taken as much action as we can.

Now, it’s time to hand things off to the Universe. But not in a passive, “sitting and waiting” kind of a way! Instead, we now acknowledge that our will has already been done. We practice receiving our desired outcome, right now. How do we do that? We create the energy of our desired outcome in our lives, right in the present moment.

For example, if we’re waiting to hear about the outcome of a job interview, the best possible thing we can do is create the energy of already having that dream job. So if getting the job means “success” we need to cultivate that energy, right now. Because “success” is available to us right in this moment. It is an energetic state of Being that is independent of any outside physical circumstances. We are successful when we create that state. It’s entirely up to us.

In this way, we focus our attention on the present moment. We detach from the outcome because we are already receiving it, right where we are. Patience becomes an acknowledgment that our energetic state of Being sometimes needs a little time and space to manifest itself at the physical level. That acknowledgment, however, takes nothing away from who we are right now. There’s nothing to wait for, because everything is already here.

Andrea

Intuition: Setting Short-Term Intentions

For many of us, setting the big, long-term intentions for our life is not all that difficult. We may want a romantic life partner, or perhaps start our own business. Maybe we want to reach a certain income level by the end of the year. Because they are long-term, we are fairly comfortable letting go of “how” these intentions may manifest themselves. We may, in fact, be so comfortable letting go of the “how” that we don’t do much about these intentions at all.

Based on some email responses I received on my last blog post, it seems to be more difficult for us to come up with intentions for today, or for the next three days, or even for this week. We may already have plans, or perhaps we’re just really, really busy. Our immediate future seems pretty much set!

And yet, the immediate future is what creates the long-term future. What we do today determines our tomorrow. And today is shaped by this present moment, and then the next one, and the next one. How can we create each moment consciously without a guiding intent? If our intent is all about the future, what happens to the now?

I have nothing against long-term intentions. They are a necessary part of our journey. So let’s keep creating our vision boards for the year, or whatever it is that helps us solidify our intentions. But think of long-term intentions as the big road map that tells us what major highways to take between, say, New York and Los Angeles. That big road map contains those major highways – but it’s not detailed at the local level. It doesn’t tell us where to stop for breakfast, lunch and dinner, where to get to an inexpensive hotel for the night, or where we can pick up a supply of snacks for the road. We don’t discover those things from the big road map. We learn those just by taking an exit and being present to where we are while knowing what we’re looking for.

In my last article, I asked my readers to set an intention for getting something accomplished within a three day period. That’s certainly one sort of short-term intention. But when determining our short-term intentions, another powerful question we can ask ourselves is “When the end of the day comes around, who do I want to be?” At the end of my day, I like to be tired in a satisfied way, with a sense of having done my work in the world and hopefully having learned a lot and strengthened my connection to Spirit. I like to be relaxed, knowing my work for the day is truly done. And I like to go to bed looking forward to the next day. These are intentions that have nothing to do with my “to do” list. But setting these types of intentions every day shapes each present moment as it arises, and changes the quality of my day, week, and thereby my entire future.

We can do the same thing for our work week. When Friday evening rolls around, who do we want to be? What state of being do we intend to embrace? Keeping that intention in mind can influence our choices and actions in profound ways as we go about our business.

When you get up tomorrow, set an intention of who you want to be at the end of your day. Ask your Higher Self and Guides for assistance. See what unfolds.

Andrea
