SPIRITUAL SOLUTIONS FOR TENSION & ANXIETY

There is a lot of drama being modeled in our culture at this time, especially in the media. This results in you being exposed daily to more drama and melodrama than ever before. It is easy to fall into the trap of confusing drama and energy.

The key distinction between the two is that drama will drain you, and energy will enliven you. Drama will cause tension and anxiety in your system.

To release that tension and shift your consciousness to energetic flow requires getting both conscious and allowing divine energy to enter.

To avoid draining interactions, focus on holding your own energy during all exchanges. Learning how to consistently hold your own personal energy field is the most important element of reducing tension and anxiety.

There are two key strategies to assist you in developing and sustaining a strong and intentional personal field – using a daily personal ritual and a daily check-in. These two activities act like a natural anti-anxiety medication by focusing your thoughts on how you want to be each day, while grounding you in the spiritual reality of who you really are.

Personal Ritual

A ritual is a personal energy tool that assists you in setting and holding your personal energy field. It can ground you, connect you to your intentions, free you from the emotions of your ego, and anchor the way you approach your daily interactions. When you use your own personal ritual, you are choosing to live intentionally, with clarity and compassion.

Create your own ritual by starting with the qualities you want in your own field. Make it simple and easy to repeat either out loud or quietly to your self. You may also find it helpful to ground yourself before you say your ritual.

It is very important that your daily ritual be done in a conscious manner. Be conscious of the words you state, feel them in your body, sense how they impact you. When you say “I feel only love” or “I attract joy” let that feeling of love flow through your body, and let the joy be expressed in your face, your smile.

Most importantly let it serve you. Create your ritual to serve yourself, reconnect you to the sacred aspects of your life, and set your energy for the day.

Daily Check-in

The daily check-in is an exercise in learning levels of distinction by answering five questions. The check-in process is completely focused on the self. This is an exercise you can do by your self or with others, and can be done in as little as five minutes. It will ground you and keep you conscious.

There is a natural tendency to think the state your personal field is related to another’s actions. You are not capable of controlling other’s actions. You are only able to control your own field, therefore during the check-in you can never comment on anyone else’s behavior.

The five questions of the daily check-in are:

What's different?
What worked and what didn't work?
What is the state of my mind, body and spirit?
What am I grateful for?
What is my intention for today?

What’s different?

The first question to ask is “What’s Different?” One of the principles of quantum physics is that in every nano-second everything is different. In order to access quantum reality (which is also the physics of all possibilities), it is important to notice that everything is different all the time.

Noticing this, and not operating from the place of “same old, same old”, wakes you up, keeps you conscious of the differences in your daily life. Asking “What’s Different?” is a simple trick to stay awake and avoid operating from old patterns.

The answer to the questions can be anything, regardless if it seems mundane. Even a simple answer – it’s sunny today – will help you avoid thinking everything’s the same. The more attuned you become to noticing what’s different, the more you are strengthening your quantum intelligence.

What worked and what didn’t work?

Ask yourself, in the past 24 hours, in your own performance, what worked and what didn’t work. You can comment on your own performance only. This is very important. The underlying intention of this part of the check-in is to remove judgment and criticism from your personal field.

Doing this non-judgmental evaluation of your own performance each day is similar to what athletes do in watching game films to see where they can improve their performance. It is merely looking factually at the results without blame, judgment or criticism.

Focus equally on what did work and what didn’t work. You will begin to see a pattern in what doesn’t work, and you can then develop strategies to change that performance.

What is the state of my mind, body and spirit?

Again, the intention of this part of the check-in is for you to live in high noticing and in distinction by seeing the clear separation of your mind, body and spirit.

It is common for each of us to describe our personal field by referencing only one of these areas. For example, “I woke up with a headache, and my whole day is ruined”. When actually doing the check on all areas will show that the headache is in your body, but your mind may be busy and alert, and your spirit may be light and energized. Separating your referencing of these three areas will help you live each day in distinction.

It’s important to note that your spirit can only be positive. Spirit is never negative. Words like happy, joyful, expansive, light, soaring, calm, peaceful and creative are words to describe the state of spirit.

What am I grateful for?

Research has shown that people who express gratitude on a frequent basis are more optimistic, feel better about their lives, make more progress towards their goals, and feel higher levels of alertness and energy.

By answering this question each day, you shift your attention to what you do have, not on what you don’t have. That focus allows you to approach your day with more vitality and energy.

What is my intention for today?

What is your intention – one or two sentences that always have an action included. An intention is different from an affirmation. Where an affirmation is a statement – “I am worthy of money” – an intention also involves action. “My intention today is to generate money flow, make six sales calls and have fun doing it.”

Manifesting anything you want in your life begins with setting your intention, then taking action towards it.

Holding your own personal energy field is the most critical step in achieving your destiny. The practice of using a daily ritual and performing a daily check-in will result in your being aware, conscious and focused on your vision.
