You have the power to reach for a better feeling thought!
Do you circulate thoughts that prevent you from feeling good? Do you find that you use words about yourself that are unkind? Are you searching for a way to uplift your thoughts to help you feel better?
This article will show you four easy techniques to help you uplift the way you feel.
1. Repeat “I don’t need to think about that!”
To help you put aside negative thoughts until you have had the chance to do your inner work, the following is a technique I learned from Abraham Hicks which I find extremely helpful.
Repeat to yourself over and over “I don’t need to think about that right now!”
It works… below is a little story of when I first used it. At the time, it was necessary for me to make a shift in my head as quickly as possible.
This particular morning, I was to hold an important public talk. The guests had struggled with mental health, so I needed to be the best me, I could be.
We had a storm in the middle of the night, and our fence had blown down and was resting heavily against my beautiful young trees. When I discovered it, I had to quickly go out into the storm and prop up the heavy, sodden fence as best I could, so there was minimum damage to my garden which I love so much.
When I was meant to be meditating to prepare, and getting ready for the talk, I was out in the storm, sodden and wind swept… and my thoughts were on insurance, prop fence, protect plants, who’s going to fix this, how much is this going to cost… etc and not at my very important task of getting ready for the public talk.
Knowing I had to shift my thoughts and centre my heart, after propping the fence sufficently, I remembered Abraham Hicks wisdom repeating over and over – “I don’t need to think about that right now!”
Thank goodness, because it helped me make the switch… the talk was a huge success and they asked for me to return for more.
Reflection Point:
You can always return to those other thoughts later, when you feel more relaxed and have an improved perspective!
2. Clock Face Technique
When you feel worry, anxiety and emotional discomfort, it is highly likely you are repeating negative sentences in your mind. To lift yourself up above this feeling, you will find the below ‘Clock Face Technique’ I also learnt from Abraham Hicks amazing! This technique will gradually lift the way you feel.
Clock Face Technique
Allow yourself at least 30 minutes to give yourself time to experience the shift. You will feel so much better as you gradually uplift your thoughts.
- On a blank piece of paper, draw a large clock face in the centre of the page, with the usual numbers 1 to 12
- Write in the very centre of the clock-face the sentence you repeat in your mind which engages a negative feeling inside.
- Beside the number 1 of the clock-face, write a truthful sentence which relates to the one in the centre, which helps you feel just a little bit better.
- Beside the number 2 of the clock-face, write a truthful sentence which relates to the one beside the number 1, which helps you feel just a little bit better.
- Continue to write a truthful sentence which helps you feel just a bit better until you reach the number 12.
Now listen to your emotions when you reach number 12 – and note how you feel.
I encourage you to spend the time to try the clock face technique when you have beliefs or thoughts which are really holding you back.
If you have thoughts which are immobilizing you, creating fear and stopping you from making change, this will help you remove that block. It is worth the effort! Please give it a go.
3. Allow a butterfly to take your thoughts away
By using your imagination, visualise a butterfly landing on your hand. Feel it’s delicate touch, and as you watch this butterfly, allow your thoughts to follow as it flies away.
This is a technique I teach at my workshops to help focus during meditation. It is perfectly normal to have thoughts come to your mind during a meditation, the tricky bit is letting them go – and this works beautifully.
Below is a video of my visual guided meditation ‘Letting your thoughts go’ so you get the idea, it’s the very first step I teach in Meditation.
You can experience it with eyes open and no sound because it’s been created to also serve the hard of hearing and the deaf community.
4. Activate your Intuition
Every inspirational leader began their journey by activating their intuition and listening to their very own high intuitive selves.
You can activate your intuition too – it’s easy and life-changing. You can activate your intuition for free in the online course called ‘Activate your Intuition’ on this website.
