Do you talk to yourself? I do. All the time. Actually I have about a conversation with myself almost every time I'm alone.
These conversations are all in my head, rarely are they out loud. And they tend to be about a problem or issue or future confrontation that I'm focusing my energy on at that time.
I really need to stop doing it though. By having these created conversations in my head, I am focusing on negativity and rarely does it get me anywhere. Most of the time, the situation does not even happen, or it never happens the way it plays out in my head. I work myself up for nothing. I actually get a pain in the pit of my stomach that reminds me to stop, take a big breath and let it go.
A few months ago I had a pretty traumatic experience that I just can't get out of my head. It has been my focus since it happened, and I keep imagining myself coming face to face with the person who caused it all and how the conversation would pan out. It's making me very unwell and stressing me out even though nothing has happened since. But I'm a big believer in manifesting what you focus on, and I keep narrowly missing coming into contact with this person. It's too close for comfort though.
It is SO easy to say, 'the past is in the past, let it go' or 'don't let that person rule your life' etc...but it is so hard to stop your mind wandering back to the incident and the person - especially when their name is spoken almost every day, in a positive-light.
Does anyone have any tips I can implement? I try to stay positive most of the time but when it comes to this person I pretty much go to pieces and can't let it go.
I once heard, "We create what we fear", and that's stuck with me.
ReplyDeleteI few things have happened in my past that I couldn't let go of. I kept thinking, "what if this happens", "what if that happens","Are they lying?" "How can I trust again?"
But I know someone who's good to talk to, can make you see things from a different angle and if you believe in it, can withdraw negative energy.
Even acupuncture helped me calm down and relax. I always feel wonderful afterwards.
Sometimes you just need to talk to someone who isn't familiar with the situation, and who can make you see through it and make you feel comfortable enough to say anything, no matter how silly you think it is.
