It seems like one of the most predictable things that is happening these days is how quickly time is passing by! The acceleration is palpable, along with awareness of all the shifts and changes that are happening in our day-to-day lives. For me, this has also triggered a number of thoughts about how to deal with “negative” energy!

It seems the more we connect with our intuitive senses and rely on our awareness of the energies of a person, place, group or thing… The more we become aware of the shadow side of ourselves and others. Occasionally, we walk in to a place, and we can’t get comfortable, or even more specifically, we can’t wait to get out of the space, because it feels dark or heavy, or perhaps just plain funky.

As a result, it is easy to start paying attention to what we call negative energies. We work to clear theses energies, release them, or perhaps, resist them taking over! Either way, it seems that we are spending more time managing the negative energies that surround us! I think it is time to stop turning our power over to negative (dark, shadow, or whatever description you want to use!) energies.

Negative Energy; It truly is the other side of a coin… There will always be negative energies… There will always be dark, constricting emotions, thoughts, people, places and things. However, when we focus on them, fight them, or try to manage them… We actually create MORE negative energies! Remember, thoughts become our reality, what we resist, persists.., etc.

Instead, let’s think of ways to infuse more positivity and Light into these situations. Lets fill our cups with so much light that there is no place for the sludge to go, but to spill over the side and wash away. Instead of trying to get rid of something (that will never go away!), add more of what you want! How about that for mindfulness!?!

If you have any ideas or suggestions on how to capitalize on brightening up your day, friend, client, home, office or anywhere else were you experience darkness… Share! We could all use more Light!!
