Why Negative Thoughts Keep Showing Up: A Deeper Look

Explore the impact of beliefs (vibrational signature) on abundance. Pasting affirmations and positivity over low vibration beliefs won't change the signature. When you are ready for change...

Have you Noticed?

Try as you might to ‘be positive’ and repeat affirmations, “I am worthy, I deserve all good, I am enough as I am”… negatives just keep showing up?

There are a few reasons we experience this scenario:

One, everything we experience has the potential to show us what we don’t want. Contrast is why we are here in the physical. It offers the opportunity to sift and sort, to apply Freewill as we please.

Secondly, it is a reminder that something is still off.

Our present is a culmination of our past thought, words and actions. Those sneaky low-vibe self-criticisms we allowed yesterday are our own little piece of karma. An energetic magnet for our next experience. So perhaps we have yet to deal with something unhealed that we are holding on to (like self-criticism in this example), or maybe we are requiring better boundaries to prevent us from being tossed on the waves of other’s drama.

Thirdly, and I will go into this later in another article for healers, the brightest, shiny-est lights are attracting energetic ‘go slows’ or stumbling blocks.

For today, let’s keep it simple:

“Every thought that you have about what is missing is an energy that allows you to be a vibrational match to everything that is missing in your life.” W Dyer

Our world is a construct of beliefs that have a vibrational signature. Individually and collectively, we are Divine co-creators. What we focus on we manifest.

Vibration is our true being.

This is not to minimise the use of affirmations in anyway, but to offer greater understanding about how to make them stick.

When we say repeatedly what we want (I am worthy) and then find our contrasting belief of doubt showing up through other’s comments, or our own actions and self-talk, we still have some work to do.

We can see an energy therapist to help correct underlying unhealed beliefs (and I recommend that you do!) and we still need to implement our own ACTION to align saying-doing-being.

Ego, This is God/Source. We need to Talk

Ego, you are here because for a spiritual being to play the Earth game and exist in the physical we need a ‘suit’. You are the ‘suit’. The persona that is merely the Earth Avatar. I know you feel disbelief around this and that your experiences feel very real but they are only a story.

I know this to be true because when you observe your whirling thoughts, you know that you cannot also BE your thoughts.

I also know this to be true because what happened 10 years ago, 10 days ago, 10 minutes ago is not this moment.

All the feelings connected to those events are as much the past as the event itself. You are keeping it alive because you, the Ego, keep reminding us and choose to keep it alive.

When you meditate, walk in nature and deeply connect with beauty, or gaze into the eyes of a small child or pet, you are reminded of the unconditional love that sits beneath the suit. The unconditional love that is me, Universal Intelligence, Source, God - whatever you choose to call me, I don’t mind.

You are Infinitely Abundant, it’s just your thoughts get in the way.

There is no judgment here - some of these thoughts have been gathered over centuries and lifetimes, gaining momentum to create the world as it is today. Yet they are only thoughts and in your optimism for this life, you were certain you would create change by thinking new, better thoughts.

‘YOU WERE CERTAIN YOU WOULD CREATE CHANGE BY THINKING NEW, BETTER THOUGHTS.’

Action Needed

No one is here guiding or influencing your thoughts, unless you let them.

You can choose to focus on whatever you choose to focus on.

Bad news, drama, criticism, frustration, hatred, separation, etc and contribute to more of that.

Or

Good news, unconditional love, joy in a moment, inner peace, oneness, and so on and contribute to more of that.

Loving your Resistance

Whatever you focus on grows.

With this awareness, it makes no sense to resent the Ego for raising doubt or any other emotion.

It is the natural order of things being the creator you are. And what is uncomfortable must increase to be known because discomfort is not who you are.

So when you focus on your true being, a Divine fragment of Source/God energy, and accept that you are infinitely deserving of all good life has to offer, it feels wonderful.

For about 30 seconds…

Ego: Are you sure? What about that time that I should have been chosen but was ignored. I obviously didn’t get what I deserved then.

Or what about the time I had a tax refund. And then the bill came in. That wasn’t abundant.

And, and, and.

Loving Self: Yes, [insert name], I am sure. Being chosen wasn’t the right path. You need to be where you are right now. Trust me.

Did you not attract enough from the refund to pay your bill? Swap the order of events around. Isn’t that abundant?

And I love you.

You are here to experience all things. The more you allow those experiences to flow by without holding tightly to the feelings they create, the more in alignment you will become with your natural abundance - love, joy, relationships, and finances.

Seeing is Believing, or Believing is Seeing?

What we put into the stream today will make its way down to the river tomorrow, or the next day, or the next.

Start with one small thing if your doubts need conviction. For example:

• Focus on the joy you feel watching a rainbow and ask Source to show you three rainbows today. Be mindful they may appear in the sky, in an advertisement, or on a child’s sneakers…

• Determine to show others love in the small things: a greeting, a smile, a helping hand, and notice how many reciprocate.

• Or ask Source to show you financial abundance - anything monetary will do to prove the point. Do you find a coin in the washing? Does a refund unexpectedly appear?

Each are examples of cause and effect.

Then, deliberately and mindfully gather the evidence and tell the Ego doubt is not needed here. Remind the Ego with this growing list of evidence each time it reverts to doubt and fear. You are in charge of your thoughts.

Grow Abundance with Thanks

The form of our gifts in response to our asking does not matter, the vibration of our appreciation does. It is the joy in the ‘God winks’ and our attitude of gratitude that floods our being with feeling loved as we are. And this is the vibration that invites more abundance. Sustaining that wonderful feeling for 17 seconds is enough to send a high vibration ripple down the stream - imagine how big the wave might be if it was repeated many times throughout the day?

You’ve got this.

Blessings
