Negative Pull | by Madisyn Taylor Sometimes we start out with the best intentions to think and speak only positive thoughts, but the people around us throw us off course. Not everyone fully understands the power our thoughts and words have, or even if they do, they may be stuck in old patterns of negativity. Much of our habitual communication takes the form of complaining and criticizing, and it can be hard to find a way into certain conversations without lapsing into those old habits. However, we always have the option not to participate in negativity or to find a way to influence the situation in a positive direction. In the right company, you may even be able to directly acknowledge the fact that things have taken a negative turn, thus freeing yourself and others from the negative pull. Not everyone will respond to your cues, and there's no need to become overly attached to the idea of changing other people, because people have to choose for themselves how they will be in the world. Many people choose negativity because it is familiar to them and feels safe. It is important to give people the space to find their own way, but you can always set an example, subtly representing the power of being positive. At times you may interject an affirmative statement into the conversation, and at others you may simply change the subject. You may also simply withdraw your energy and presence, which also makes a subtle statement. If you feel comfortable enough with somebody that is always negative, perhaps you can have an honest conversation with them; after all, awareness is the first step to change. A powerful way to free yourself from the negative pull is to enlist allies who are similarly minded. You and a friend, coworker, or family member may agree to work together to continually shift the energy in a situation in a positive direction. The power of two people working to promote the positive is exponentially greater than one person working on their own. As you and your allies work together to lift the energy around you, you will be amazed to see how quickly the positive pull begins to draw people into its orbit, freeing one mind after another from negativity into light. | DailyOM Course Spotlight by Natalie Southgate Releasing blocked energy from our bodies is a vital part of cultivating good health and wellbeing that is often overlooked. In an ideal world, when trauma or deep feelings affect us, we would experience those feelings, then discharge and release the energy. However, we often don't fully accept or deal with our inner responses--sometimes we suppress the flow of energy, and the trauma becomes embedded into our bodies and woven into our muscles, joints, and organs. These blocked feelings become the tensions in our bodies, the illnesses and diseases we don't understand. Chakra dance is a way of releasing this energy. It's a deeply healing practice for wellbeing that uses dynamic moving meditations set to music, specially created to resonate vibrationally with each of your 7 main chakras. As you move your chakras, you'll open your body to release the stuck energy that is no longer serving you. And you'll feel more alive than ever before! Top 10 DailyOM Courses 1. Yoga for Empaths 2.
