I am a student of many spiritual teachers including the Shift Network, Sounds True, Abraham Hicks and Gabby Bernstein. My continual growth and expansion of self is nothing short of amazing. By choosing to be more conscious of my actions, my thoughts and how I am affecting my reality helps me to be a better person; a happy person; the person I want to be.
Pull to the Dark Side
One thing I have noticed recently is that I sometimes feel this inner “pull” to the dark side. What I mean by this is that I could go either way feel good or bad, but I feel something wanting to keep me in misery or pain. I believe that is my ego using fear to keep me in line.
One way that Abraham describes being in alignment is the cork on the water. I have been studying this within myself. When I am obsessing about something or dwelling on pain or a bad interaction with someone, I often get distracted and forget. Then suddenly, I actually “feel” myself bob back up to the surface and elation overtakes me. It is quite a moment to witness if you can catch it. I am sure I used to stuff that nice feeling back down and quickly return to the darkness, but now I am grasping hold of it and following the light instead.
Consciousness Helps Me to See Better
I found this happening a lot last week, and I took notice so I would remember that feeling good is natural. We are the ones pulling that cork below the surface with fear, anger, hate, anxiety, worry, and other negative emotions. If we only just let it go for a minute, whoosh, we pop back up into the sunshine. Our inner being/God wants us to be happy, and that is our natural state. We return to it when we slow the chatter in our minds.
Having spent a lifetime worrying, and being afraid, it is sometimes hard to let go of old, bad habits. It’s then that I rely on my new spiritual tools to meditate them away or change my behavior for a more positive outcome.
On the Right Path Towards Happy
Just the awareness of that slight change in mood is an excellent indicator that I am on the right track and all this reality creation stuff is not BS but the actual truth. We are not here to wallow in frustration and disappointment. The idea was to sample contrast, create realities we wanted for ourselves and continue to learn and grow along the way. Something got messed up somewhere because most of us spend our lives suffering.
So when you feel a pull towards the negative, remember the minute you let go of that, you will bob right back up to the surface and feel better again. It truly is that easy. Even if you feel only a tiny fraction of relief, you are headed in a better direction now. You are in control; you have the keys in your hand, you can choose to be happy or not.
