It can be difficult to think positively when things aren’t going well. At the same time, it is also important to acknowledge uncomfortable emotions to allow them to pass through. If we squash them with a positive thought, we end up suppressing hurt and trauma, which may resurface in ways we don’t want in the future.
There are various techniques and strategies that can ease the difficulty with dealing with negative emotions such as meditation and mindfulness, practicing gratitude, Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) and Neuro Emotional Technique (NET).
Other tips to shift your energy when you’re feeling down could be catching up with a friend, going for a walk, watching a funny movie or simply slowing down to practice some deep breathing. Whatever it is, make it a priority so that you can actively move through the negative thoughts and bring something positive into your world.
