QUESTION: How can I stop intrusive thoughts? It's an old behavior pattern for me to obsess about things, and while my conscious mind wants to stop thinking about things, the subconscious mind keeps popping it back into my mind. How can I reconcile these two?
ANSWER: When we are in mind chatter we are usually in the disappointments of the past or the expectations/what if's of the future. In order to be in a place of power, we need to focus our thoughts on what we want, and stop the unconscious behavioral pattern of unwanted creation. Whatever we are thinking....we are creating! Everything on planet Earth is here because it is a THOUGHT FORM of divine energy. That is how powerful our thoughts are ~ they create our circumstances....our reality, our world!
Many people who are currently on the spiritual path are experiencing the negative circumstances of their previous thoughts, emotions and feelings. Thoughts combined with strong emotion are HIGHLY CREATIVE! Our thoughts are vibrations within our energy field, so if we have spent most of our lives on auto pilot....totally unconscious of how powerful our thoughts were, then it will take time to process through all the distorted thought forms (energy forms) of our past that are currently magnetizing unwanted events in our life now.
In order to to change our future we have to change our NOW. Becoming conscious of our thoughts and what we are creating is the first step. The second step is to take dominion over our thoughts so we can direct and refocus them on what we want, not what we don't want. You do this by simply ~ changing your thought! You can also command your God Self to come forward and take dominion over your negative thinking, and then do your part to stay focused on something positive and more life affirming. This will take effort!
Energy always follows thought! Always! Where we focus our attention is precious. When you notice you have fallen out of alignment with your higher consciousness, give thanks for the recognition, and redirect your energy towards what you want....not what you don't want. ~Sabrina
