How to Stop Spiraling Down (Step 1)
Last week we talked about spiraling up
and down.
It was clear that spiraling up was all about
focusing one's attention on what you want--
like Michael Phelps did.
A down spiral is the opposite, it is brought
about by focusing one's attention on what
you don't want.
If you feel stuck in one of these down
spiral, I have news for you.
What I have found along the years is that
there is really only one thing to do, and it is not
the easiest...but it is really possible once you
know the process.
Knowing that you attract what you resist,
it is logical that if you stop resisting you
will stop attracting also.
Ok so far?
So how do you stop resisting?
The first step is to find out what you are resisting
exactly.
It is not as evident as you may think.
Often times, it is so painful to think of the issue,
that you have never define exactly what you are
resisting.
I remember when I moved from France to Troy, NY ,
in 1989, I was extremely anxious for months.
One day I decided to find out what I was resisting.
It took me another 10 days to have the courage to actually
look into the core of this anxiety and find the thought I was
resisting.
So once you direct your attention toward what you are
resisting, you will hit an experience that you absolutely
don't want to experience: it may be bankrupcy, death,
or something as drastic.
Yes, I am not talking easy things to accept.
Guess what, if you have spent all this time and energy
to resist it, you have a good reason to do it.
It is the absolute worst situation you can imagine...
for you.
Someone else may not see it the way you see it.
You will certainly be emotional when you find it. It's
OK stay with it a minute or so.
The most important thing is to have found exactly
what you are resisting.
Bravo, you have passed step 1.
So, what is step 2?
Remember, I said you will have to stop resisting what
you resist. What does it mean exactly?
How can one do that?
We'll address step 2 next week.
In between, pump up your courage and find out
what you truly resist. It is eye opening and it
brings you one step closer to spiraling up again.
Warmly,
Colette
