Yesterday was a good day with vibe switching and Overcoming Negativity Addiction. I felt pretty relaxed all day long, which was so encouraging seeing as the day before I had to vibe switch out of fear and anxiety several times during the day.
The new vibe switch of being the observer of the fear chemicals instead of trying not to be afraid was somewhat of a revelation for me because I saw how pushing against fear in the body oftentimes makes it way worse for me chemically.
So try it today. If you are someone who feels fear, worry, stress or anxiety as one of your negativity addiction triggers, instead of trying to “not be afraid”, instead settle into watching the fear like you would setting into watching a movie at the movie theater. Observe where you get tense in your muscles, your breathing changes, or if (like me) you can actually feel the chemicals of fear entering into your system.
Yes, it will feel a bit uncomfortable and you may feel the urge to get up and run away, distract yourself with other things, follow your speeding thought trains, etc. But, just decide that today’s vibe switch out of fear, stress, worry, or anxiety is becoming the “watcher”. When we watch fear instead of reacting from fear, we are actually activating an entirely different part of our brain and withdrawing our attention from that fight or flight response which is located in the primitive part of our brains.
I really think that watching my anxiety, fear, and stress, made it go away quickly and then yesterday I had no real big need to vibe switch. My chemicals were pretty much under control, even though I am taking on more and more responsibilities in the physical world with making this movie. It’s like I can handle more than I could before! It’s like I’m bigger than I was before, more capable.
Today I am going to commit to eating 100% raw because that’s when my body feels the most like purring. I’m going to do kundalini yoga and run and I’m going to be all about self care, nurturing, and meditation. When we care for our bodies, negativity addiction can’t take hold as easily in our lives.
I’m going to listen to the call of my heart and vibe switch whenever triggered today!
Love and Happy Bio-Chemicals,
Denise
