Believe it or not, I had a rampage of negative thoughts on Friday afternoon. I was feeling sorry for myself, unappreciated and disrespected. Leading up to this: my Wednesday Abundance Group only had 3 people show this week, then another class was cancelled because of low enrollment. I had also been giving people breaks on my rates and providing free help to some struggling friends. My acts of generousity appeared to be ignored or somehow not enough. I was not feeling much abundance returning to me and gloom and doom from the radio and media wasn’t helping either.
These negative thoughts continued in my dreams all night long on Friday night and were still bugging me as I awakened on Saturday morning. This was very annoying. I seemed to be stuck in a negative loop.
At least I was noticing it! Did I tap on it? NO. I don’t have a good reason why, but I guess I was too busy having a pity party.
I decided to drag myself out in the -3 degree chill to Jazzercise class anyway. Once I got moving, everything finally shifted up! I remember the instructor commenting on the lyrics to one of our songs — asking the class if we remembered those days when we were “Young , Wild and Free”.
I immediately thought to myself – I am that way TODAY. I was dancing in complete bliss, without pain, I was comfortable working out at a very high intensity and my mind was clear. I also realized in that moment that I am free in so many ways that I take for granted. It was like all those negative thoughts melted away the minute I chose to recognize the positives I had in my world. I can write, teach, read, speak, share, dance, sing and just be. I am who I am — I am fine!
After I was back home, I treated myself with EFT for those negative, pity party thoughts because they are part of my reality too. What’s good about a pity party is that it lets this stuff rise to the surface for processing and release. That is how to end the pity party once and for all.
So throw yourself a pity party, but make sure you CLEAN IT UP with tapping or your favority treatment modality after the party’s over.
