When you begin questioning your thoughts that don’t serve you, you suddenly are able to focus with great intent on manifesting the things you desire.  When I first explored the idea of going deeper into my negative feelings, I felt resistance.  I didn’t think that diving into darkness would be a comfortable place.  And perhaps that’s the point of it…

Who Would You Be Without It?

Letting go, or releasing from negative emotions can be difficult. Sometimes we even incorporate that emotion into our view of Self. We see it as part of who we are. We may even think, “who the heck would I be without it?” It can make us uncertain. Or it can release us.

Dive Into the Emotion

Rather than running from the emotion or determining through sheer willpower that you’re going to choose a different one, I have a different take. I call it “embracing the darkness.” I have taken the emotion and dove right in.

If you want to give it a try, here’s one way to do it. You can begin by identifying it. Say “I am feeling (insert emotion here).” Decide you’re going deeper into that emotion.

Ask yourself, “Am I able to let this emotion go?” Can you allow that feeling to be there? Are you able to welcome the feeling? Whether you answer “yes” or you answer “no,” I don’t believe there is a right or wrong response. One way to stop holding on to the emotion is to ask yourself honestly, “Am I willing to let it go?”

Your goal isn’t to argue with yourself. Tune into your first response. Don’t judge yourself for having the thought or feeling, or feel like you’re less than whole for having the feeling. This process should lead you to the place where you ask yourself, “Does this feeling serve me? Would I rather hold on to this, or would I rather be free of it?”

And when you reach the place where you decide that you would like to release the emotion so it can be replaced with a better feeling one…ask yourself, WHEN? When will you release it? Can you do that now?

You can work through the questions as many times as you need to. Sometimes the relief or release comes in a subtle way, and it might not be a big “a-ha!” moment. Releasing the negative feeling can be a bit light peeling back the layers. So whether it’s fast, or slow, just diving into the feeling can in fact be the beginning of moving out of the dark, heavy feeling and into a lighter, brighter place.

There are so many ways that we can move out of low vibration emotions. Especially when we question our emotions and thoughts. What are some methods you use to challenge your limiting beliefs?
