We actually witness each new experience twice – consciously with our senses, then it is replayed mentally in our mind. However, atimes we have the tendency to really want to milk an experience to feel it longer.
This is especially true when it comes to matters of the heart, things that make us angry, cry, hurt. Things that make us jealous or fearful. Those tears only start coming after you’ve replayed what the heck just happened in your mind and start justifying why you’re feeling what you’re feeling.
I’m all for having a good cry and vent every now and then. But honestly, once you’ve realized that the energy spent feeling those emotions never rectify the issue, you really just wanna change the channel after a while.
Replaying negative experiences the moment you experience them only send you down a rabbit hole of continuous emotions. They unravel and like dominoes, begin collapsing one after the other. You’ll think…”I didn’t make enough money this month, I have bills to pay, what if I don’t pay in time? What if we get kicked out? My mother in-law’s a witch, we can’t live with her. What will my kids think?
Stop stop stop. Take a breather. We are more than aware by now that thoughts create reality, so what good will it do for you to focus on all the things that can go wrong?
Just because you experience a negative situation in your life, does not mean you have to SEE it. Take it for what it is and let it go. Try as much as possible to avert your mind to what you’d rather have happen in your situation instead.
Remember always that any action you decide to perform out of a place of fear will only lead to manifestations of things you don’t want.
So the moment you start feeling the onset of a negativity spiral, stop it immediately and try to find your “happy place”. Remember that every thought you have from that point on only perpetuates more of the same. You can only start seeing a different show line-up if you change the channel.
