Positive affirmations are so extremely potent in living out your life in a joyful way. Our ego mind is always collecting information from the world around us. Therefore, it makes sense that if we feed our minds positive thoughts, we will feel and act happier, as opposed to injected negative ones. The mind then gets addicted to the more dominant feelings and turns it into stories and programs your whole mindset. But fear not, if you are housing more feelings of sadness and anger, you can change and reprogram your mind, so can start to feel happier. And you can do it as simply as reciting positive affirmations into your daily life.
Your ego mind will turn your thoughts into facts and this determines how you feel. This is why we all have different values and opinions in life because we are all living out our own truths, that we are filtering within our own energy centres and minds. We have a current of energy, like a bunch of invisible strings that is attached to us and then each one is connected to the people around us. The current has a 2 way flow consisting of a reception current and an expression current. You are collecting energy from the people around you, which is the reception current; running from people to you. You take it into your energy centres, commonly known as the chakras, and here you filter them. In turn, you express energy back out into the world and the people around you, which is called the expression current. Sometimes these currents can become blocked and we cannot receive or express ourselves within this world in a healthy manner. This energy current can also become overcharged, meaning we are taking too much of the energy, or we can become undercharged, which is when the energy inside us is being depleted. Learning about the chakras is a beautiful way to become and feel balanced within life, which I’ll write in further in another blog post. But for now I just wanted you to know more about the chakras and the effects of positive and negative energy surrounding you. If we are consistently surrounding ourselves with negative energy then ultimately it is going to take the wheel and drive your mindset in a negative way. This is not how we want to live. I’m positive we would all love to live a more happier life.
Let’s begin reprogramming that mind and fill it with positive affirmations. . It is proven that if you inform your brain with these affirmations then your brain believes it and will program your whole energy and your surrounding environment. Your mind will believe it and project it. This stuff is so incredibly POWERFUL! We will run through a list of positive affirmations per chakra so you can begin to live out a more balanced life.
