Unstoppable Energy Tip

What do you imagine? Have you ever been in the situation where you’re waiting for a loved one to arrive home and they are late, and before you know it you’re imagining all kinds of disasters that may have happened? By the time they do arrive home you’ve worked yourself into a state of high anxiety.

It’s so easy to do – you don’t hear from someone, so you imagine the worst. Someone doesn’t respond to you in the way that you expected, so you imagine it must be because they don’t like you, and so on.

Your imagination can become so active in these moments causing you make up stories that are very far from the truth. Yet you convince yourself that they are real.

It’s okay to be aware of what can happen and to be prepared for all eventualities, although if you allow your mind to continue with the imagined story that something terrible must be happening, you create more stress in your life than you need, you lower your vibration, and can end up feeling paralyzed by fear.

See if you can catch yourself the next time your imagination runs away with a story like this. Acknowledge the fear and re-direct your thinking to something that’s helpful. This way you can use your imagination to support you and raise your vibration, attracting more positive outcomes.

Try this affirmation:
“I release the need to imagine the worst. I choose instead to think in terms of solutions, to know that I can handle any situation, and to imagine the best possible outcomes.”

To redirect my thoughts when they go astray, I try and think of things I am thankful for. Our minds are so powerful. Thanks for the good tips! ✅

I fully agree. I even think this is why I have CFS. But what if you were raised by a narcissist where you had to keep her happy at all times for your own survival?? How do we break out of that habit??

Hi Dina,
Thank you for your comment - I think it posted to the wrong place (not your fault), and is supposed to be related to the 'You are not responsible' post. Anyway, I was also raised by a narcissist and what I can tell you is that it IS possible to break out of that pattern. Of course, it takes time and diligence, but you have to get to the point where you can accept that this is who she is and she cannot change. When you were living with this person you may have had to keep her happy for your own survival, but that's not true once you leave home. You have to accept that nothing you could ever do or say will make this person happy, so you focus on your own happiness instead and disengage as much as you can from this person.

I know all this is easier said than done but I want you to know it is possible. Your job now is to focus on healing yourself so you get to the point where you know that you are good enough, despite what you heard or felt as you were growing up.
