How to get rid of Negative thoughts /Negative emotions ~
“The Awareness Plan” ~ Kapil Jain
Many times, there are situations which create negative self talk and
generate negative emotions. We have no control on the negative thoughts
which cross our minds. However we can control our behavior to such
negative thoughts. The key lies in understanding the difference between
reacting vis-à-vis responding.
Reaction is a spontaneous action, an impulsive and involuntary action
towards a situation without any thought or awareness. Whereas, a
Response is a controlled action/inaction which is carried under full
awareness of the consequences.
How can one develop this wonderful habit so that it becomes a part our being.
Create a “The Awareness Plan”
It’s actually only a list of Things that I can do in any
given situation that will make me an aware person. Here are my favorite
4 Things.
1. Focus on Breath.
This can be done 3-4 times a day & in any place. Close your eyes
and take slow deep breaths around 20-25 times and then get back to what
you were doing.
2. Smile at people you don’t know (as well
as people that you do know). This creates a positive vibration within in
your subconscious and makes you a happy person in general
3. Take a walk in nature, preferably early
morning. Look, listen, smell and touch as much of nature as you possibly
can. Nature does not hurry, yet everything is established. Associating
self with nature is an Incredible, powerful, meaningful and peaceful
experience. It helps you to reach within.
4. Listen to your favorite music. Lao Tzu has said “Music in the soul can be heard by the universe”
So go ahead and create your awareness plan in your journey towards self discovery and inner peace and ultimately Being happy.
Remember : “We primarily grow as human beings by discovering new truths about ourselves and our reality.” – Steve Pavlina

Where there is Light, there cannot be Darkness…
Is Darkness the opposite of Light?
… or is it the absence of Light?
… and what is the difference?
Here I will present my perspective of this, and of course it´s
totally up to you to feel if this is in harmony with your own belief, or
not. As a practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine I was rooted in
my belief that the Light always holds the seed of the Darkness and vice
versa… (the symbol of Yin and Yang).
My perspective has changed, and today I have moved a little bit beyond the dualistic perspective of existence…
Is Darkness the Opposite of Light?
My answer to this is; no
Light is an un-destroyable power in itself, and the natural simplicity is that; where there is Light, there cannot be darkness. The darkness has no power in itself, and can only appear where there is the absence of Light.
Think of a light-switch. We walk into a dark room and switch the
light on… Instantly the room is lighted. Now imagine a dark-switch. We
walk into a light room and switch the darkness on. Would that be
possible? Would darkness have the power to concur the light? No… and the
reason is that darkness can only appear where there is an absence of light.
It´s the same with a shadow. As soon as the sun is moving the shadow
has to move. It is not even a question if the shadow wants to move or
not. Again, the shadow or the darkness has no power in itself. It
cannot conflict the Light just for the sake of it… Thereby it´s no opposite or destructive power. So I repeat – Darkness is only the absence of Light.
These examples are both phenomena’s that we just take for granted.
The majority of us don’t even think of the powerful message that is
there for us to use in our lives.
So, read those words carefully again…
Where there is Light – there cannot be Darkness!
As a Healer and Lightworker – I can honestly say – that THIS is the foundation of my “work”… It´s as simple as that…
The Power of Light in practical use…
Okey, so how can we start using this free resource in our ordinary day to day living?
Based on the perspective that different emotions, matters and situations all hold different vibrational levels – we can instantly
dissolve a lower (darker) vibration by exposing it to light. Does this
sound too simple to be true? Well, throughout the history of mankind –
we’ve had a tendency to complicate things to please our egos. We have
been taught to live our lives in struggle, and forgotten how to live in a
dynamic harmony with the infinite field of possibilities we have all
around – and within us.
The good news is that this field of intelligent power is still
available for us to “tap into” any moment we want to. We just have to
make an active choice to bring the Light into a situation, a feeling, a
challenge or whatever it may be… and from there let the Light do the
rest and allow it to instantly dissolve the “darkness” .
It takes time to heal…
Another of these grand myths we have been taught to live by is: “ It takes time to heal…”
Ok…
Tell the light to take it´s time to fill a room… or tell the shadow to take its time to move… Do I need to say any more?
In the very instant the Light is present – the darkness is gone!
If we just dare to bring this natural phenomena into our beliefs,
bodies and lives… we WILL SEE INSTANT changes. The reason it often
“takes time to heal” is that we cling to the vibration of that statement
with our blocking thoughts and beliefs… and do not fully allow the pure
presence of the Light. Consciously or subconsciously – we “shut” the
light out.
As I see it…
Our “job” is to get out of the habit of having the ego constantly
pulling the curtains and shutting the light out… to get into the habit
of staying in the magnificent shower and flow of pure Light. This is
what I call the art to surrender our EGO and in my upcoming blog posts I will share a method I use myself – on a daily basis.
Till then – open the curtains and let the Light in…
