For most, the word negativity makes people cringe. They don’t want to have anything to do with negativity and, really, who does? Here are some tips to try when experiencing negativity:
- Accept the situation that’s causing negativity. Resistance of what is causes pain. If there’s nothing you can do to change it, accept it.
- Become aware of your negativity that comes in the form of thoughts & emotions. Awareness creates a dis-identification from your mind. You become what is aware of the negativity, not the negativity itself.
- Realize that you are creating suffering for yourself by allowing this negativity to stay attached to you. By realizing that negativity doesn’t serve any purpose, & that you are responsible for your own feelings, you can relinquish it.
- Be aware that there is something in you that believes this negativity has a purpose, that takes pleasure in it. This ‘something’ is called the ego.
- Your negativity is mind created. Your mind has unconscious belief’s that negativity will dissolve the undesirable condition. You are not your mind.
- Your mind is conditioned to define what is good and what is bad. Keep in mind that within everything bad, there is good to be learned. Everything happens for a reason.
- Imagine yourself being transparent to any negativity. Let the emotions, negative reactions & thoughts pass right through you, leaving you unaffected.
- Be present. A lot of negativity comes from too much past or too much future. Whenever negativity arises, let it be a reminder for you to be present.
