Turn your darkness into light: the highest perspective
No matter how positive our outlook on life is, unpleasant things will happen that will bring us down. People betray us, hurt us and let us down. People attack us with their spiteful words. They misjudge us, take credit for our work, or slander us. When we experience these kinds of things in our daily lives, it is very difficult to maintain a positive attitude. Such actions and feelings produce a very low vibration: a very negative energy.
However, although we cannot prevent these kinds of things from happening, we can choose how to react to them.
Option 1:
The natural human reaction is to play into the drama of the situation. If we accept this, we feel compelled to justify and defend ourselves. If we take on negative energy, we find ourselves feeling resentful, angry, or even vindictive. Unfortunately, this simply magnifies the negativity and harms us. If you are on a path of self-improvement and personal growth, your search will be to raise your vibration to that of unconditional love. If you allow yourself to fall into this negative pattern of drama, you will be undoing all your good work and making yourself feel horrible in the process.
Option 2:
Alternatively, you can change your perspective and choose to see the situation in a different light. Raise your perspective above the drama to the higher perspective of the Soul or Higher Self. From the highest perspective, everything is perfect and everything has a purpose. From the highest perspective, your experience provides a wonderful opportunity to grow and ascend even further. Ask yourself what gifts and lessons your soul wanted you to learn from experiencing this; you are usually shown what not to do! For example, how should a loving person have behaved in that situation? What have you learned by witnessing her bad example? What qualities have you gained from going through that experience? How have you become a better, more loving, and less judgmental person?
When you have identified the lessons and gifts, sit quietly with your eyes closed and feel the energy of your heart. Let the energy expand with each breath. Then let your heart energy expand out of your body and ask it to connect with the energy of the Universe. Now, ask the Universe to show you that you are completely done learning those lessons now, and there is no need to continue learning from the incident, or from any resentment, grudge, or anger you are holding. Then ask the Universe to release everyone involved from the obligation to give you those lessons and gifts. Now, let the energy of the Universe move through your body, cleansing all lower vibrations and transforming them. Visualize or imagine what happens, until you see that every cell in your body has become clean and bright. Allow your vibration to rise once again to the vibration of love.
The upsets and hurts of life will keep showing up, but if you deal with them right away, they’ll help you on your way, rather than hinder you. If you complete the lessons and then cleanse the lower vibrations of your body, you will get back to who you really are as quickly as possible. Only then can you bring that vibration of love back into the world.
