As we move
into a new year it usually means New Year's resolution, but just for a moment
let's do something different.
Let's throw
away the good intentional but never carried out multitude of resolutions like changing
our eating habits, losing weight, or making more money (you get the picture)!
Instead I purpose that you focus on a
single change that will affect your life more than any resolution that bores
you in a few weeks could ever!
In my
practice as a Metaphysical Practitioner I'm often asked how to turn negative
chatter in your head around. Since we know how important it is to maintain a positive
attitude. I thought it time to address the issue of chatter and negative
self-talk. You know what I'm talking about that voice inside your head that is
always judging you. The voice that is the first thing you hear when you drop
something or stub your toe. It's the voice that says "I'm stupid"
"I can't do anything right".
These
negative statements have more of an impact on your subconscious mind and your
life than you can imagine. Because your subconscious mind runs the show. Ninety percent of every new experience is based on what is seeded or programmed in your subconscious. These
ideals are developed from patterns and habits formed from childhood, genetic
cellular memory, past lives, and even from the beginnings of our existence. We
learn from our parents, other people, and events we experience as we grow up.
Some of the things learned may have served us as children, but no longer serve
us as adults. Others are the product of difficult or traumatic experiences held
in our subconscious or memory banks, and have left a legacy of negative beliefs
and thought patterns. Our thoughts and our words are energy and therefore have
the power to change our lives.
This
negative voice is something we all have, and at times struggle with, but you
can take control of it and let your positive attitude shine through and thus
create the life you deserve!
I'm going to
give you two ideas you can use to turn off the negative voice and turn on the positive
one, so that it can become the dominate voice you hear.
First, you
have a negative message come through say "Cancel thought, Cancel thought,
Cancel thought" or "Delete, Delete, Delete" and then replace
that negative thought with a positive one. You don't need to say it aloud. For
example, if your negative voice says
"I can't do this, it's to hard for me", think "Cancel thought,
Cancel thought, Cancel thought, and then follow that with "Nothing is to
hard for me when I put my mind to it, in fact I can do anything"!
Right now,
of course you're thinking "this is to hard for me". Think about this,
you did not get here over night and so it's going to take practice and effort
to reprogram yourself! Everything takes practice , and as you may be thinking
this is silly, your persistence will pay off, and before you know it , not only
will this become automatic for you, but your negative thought will diminish
greatly.

Affirmations you will be able to accomplish whatever you set your mind to much
easier!
Namaste'
