How To Keep Negative Thoughts At Bay: A Guide
Written on
Chapter 1: Understanding Vibrational Thoughts
The concept of thoughts can be likened to cumulative magnets, with each one emitting its own unique vibration. These "thought magnets" naturally attract similar frequencies. When we are unaware, negative comments from others can seep into our subconscious, especially if we already harbor similar negative thoughts. As we become more familiar with these lower frequencies, they accumulate, leading us to dwell in a mindset dominated by negativity.
To counteract this, we need to establish a conscious filter for our thoughts, comments, and external opinions. This "gate" allows us to reject negativity and welcome higher vibrational influences, granting us the power to shape our reality. By doing so, we can shield ourselves from lower energies—such as shame, criticism, and emotional abuse—that would otherwise weigh us down.
This process involves actively seeking and embracing higher vibrations while filtering out those that hinder our growth. It's akin to reading the universe in a way that empowers our pursuits and emotions.
Section 1.1: The Impact of Negative Feedback
Consider two personal experiences that illustrate the importance of this filtering mechanism. In the first instance, my father made a hurtful comment about my appearance, intending to point out that I had gained weight. Unfortunately, I absorbed this negativity, adding it to my existing feelings of unworthiness and shame regarding my body image. This moment reinforced my negative self-perception and caused unnecessary pain.
Subsection 1.1.1: The Power of Positive Affirmations
Conversely, a positive experience during a coaching session profoundly impacted me. A fellow coach recognized my potential, saying, "You will be a great coach." This affirmation, which I often struggle to accept, became a beacon of positivity that I chose to embrace. It reminded me of my aspirations and the importance of embodying my goals before vocalizing them.
Section 1.2: The Dual Nature of Incoming Messages
In both scenarios, I had the option to decide what I would carry forward. However, the negative comment felt like a dark ink spreading in clear water, overshadowing all other colors. This metaphor illustrates how negativity can infiltrate our mental landscape.
To cultivate awareness of these incoming messages and their impact, I employ a simple yet effective tool. I set an alarm a few times daily and reflect on three powerful questions:
- What am I thinking right now?
- How am I feeling right now?
- What bodily sensations am I experiencing?
This straightforward exercise provides profound insights into my inner world. I often discover that my thoughts, driven by assumptions or fears, can trigger an immediate fight-or-flight response, making me feel as though a tiger is lurking nearby.
By allowing low-vibrational thoughts to infiltrate our minds and lacking a proper filtering mechanism, we invite unnecessary stress and illness into our lives. Establishing this awareness is essential for everyone, serving as a vital strategy to maintain mental health and well-being.
