Grief-How To Keep It From Stopping Your Dreams
Grief is such a part of our world, especially these days. No matter how positive you are grief will come up for you. It is a normal reaction to loss.
If your dog dies, a family member develops an illness, or dies, or if you experience a change in yourself you consider a loss, then you will experience grief. It is a normal human response to loss.
It also can run counter to the positive, and joyful presence we are trying to achieve in manifesting our dream life.
So, what do you do? Not grieve. Change your mindset, or think about something else.
Well it is true that putting the most positive take you can on your grief is helpful, it is not the whole story. If you are grieving, do what you can to make your story positive. You can tell yourself you will feel better in time. You can make your story as positive as you can.
It is very important though, that you don’t block the grief. It needs to be released and experienced. If you don’t release it, it will actually create more resistance than if you do experience it and release it.
The average person if probably grieving to a degree all the time. All our losses in life bring it up. Even smaller things like not being able to do as much as you did when you were 10 years younger, or breaking your favorite bowl can bring out grief in us.
There are a couple good ways to release grief.
- Using EFT- The emotional freedom technique of tapping is really useful to release grief. Free information can be found about how to do this on my site and elsewhere.
- The Release Technique- check it out in the resources tab- a great release method for any emotions that you are experiencing. (Click on the resource link tab at top of page for more information)
- Journaling
- Therapy can sometimes be good- or just sharing with a good friend and allowing yourself sometime to let it out. cry, shout , or whatever you need to do so you can get resume with your joyful life sooner.
- Spending some quiet time and just let the feelings surface and be expressed.
It is often a misunderstood concept in law of attraction that negative emotions should not be felt and experienced. If they are there, ignoring them will not help. In fact, it will slow you down even more. Better to look at them, see what is there, find ways to change your story to something more positive, and release the emotions that you need to. This will free you to be less resistive of the dreams that are waiting out there to come to you.
