THE 3 MOST POWERFUL POSITIVE EMOTIONS IN OUR LIVES. (2024)

They are LOVE, FORGIVENESS and GRATITUDE.

LOVE - MAGICAL MANIFESTING MUSCLE.

Love is the most powerful of all emotions and has the strongest attracting qualities.

Go to your bedroom, close the door and lie on the bed. Get nice and comfy. Close your eyes. Now think back to a time when you are in love - madly, deliciously, deliriously, joyously in love with someone. Think about when you truly loved and was loved back - feel that feeling of love, feel it warm the heart. Feel your heart open; feel the love flow into your heart, feel it flow through you and then to another.Feel how wonderful, peaceful, safe and cared for as your heart opens. Know you are loved fully and unconditionally. Keep the flow going unconditionally - you’re here because you’re loved. Feel that flow between you and the Universe; feel the flow to you, feel you flowing it back.

Feel your heart open - feel how good it feels. Tap into that power; flow that power back. Keep the flow going. Bathe in that feeling of love flowing from the Universe to you and through you. Lie there and enjoy that feeling for as long as you desire. When you're ready, slowly open your eyes and gently sit up. Know that you can tap into that amazing, attracting energy at any time

APPRECIATE AND LOVE YOURSELF - Give Yourself Praise.

You accomplish many things daily. Remember to thank yourself. Do you think to reward yourself with much needed praise for all the wonderful things you do that often go unnoticed?

Make a mental or written list of six things you did yesterday that helped someone else, then give yourself a hug and thank yourself out loud.
Take time to acknowledge all the things you do - remind yourself you’re marvelous and magnificent.
You deserve a round of applause and a song of praise every day.
Repeat verbally or write down these powerful affirmations “I appreciate and love myself more and more every day. I support myself with love, confidence and positive thoughts. I reward myself with the good things in life”.

APPRECIATE A LOVED ONE.

Breathe mindfully for about a minute.
Set the intention. For example, “May this practice deepen my connection with _________ (loved one’s name)”.
Breathe mindfully for a few breaths. Now picture your loved one you wish to appreciate.
Reflect on his or her positive presence in your life. Whisper a thank you.
Reflect on how this person has supported you. Say Thank you.
End by breathing mindfully for a few breaths. Next time you speak with your loved one, thank him or her.

LAVISHING LOVE.

“What goes around comes around” - to receive love, first learn to give love. Making others feel good has a magical way of making you feel good. Take five minutes this morning to make a list to lavish a loved one in glorious compliments.

Start by putting their name at the top of your page.

“You’ve got the nicest smile. It lights up the whole room.”
“You’re one of the most generous person I know.”
“You have a way of making everyone feel so loved and cherished in your life.”
“You have the most positive outlook in life and I enjoy being around you.”
“Your friendship means the world to me. Thank you for being a part of what is good in my life.”

FORGIVENESS - CLEARING BLOCKED ENERGY.

1. How to Practice Forgiveness. How to forgive when it hurts so much?

Forgiveness is not something we do for other people. We do it for ourselves - to get well and move on. To forgive is to let go of what you don’t want, to get what you want. Forgiveness is the economy of the heart, forgiveness saves the expense of anger, the cost of hatred and the waste of spirits. Is there anyone you cannot forgive for whatever reasons? Is there anyone who could not forgive you for whatever reasons? Call that person now and have a heart to heart talk with them and ask for forgiveness or vice versa.

2. Forgive Others and Yourself.

Write down the names of those who had hurt you and what they did to you. Go to a peaceful quiet place with no disturbance. Take deep breaths and countdown from 10 to 1. Relax. Visualise you’re talking to that person. Explain why their words and actions hurt and caused you pain. Visualise them answering you. Finally say to them “I forgive you. I release you. Go forward and be happy in your life“. Tear up the paper and throw it away.

3. Have Others Forgive You.

Write down the names of those whom you have hurt and what you did to them intentionally or unintentionally. Go to a peaceful quiet place with no disturbance. Take deep breaths and countdown from 10 - 1. Relax. Visualise talking to that person. Explain how you’ve hurt them by your words and actions. Explain it was not your intention at all to do so. Ask for their forgiveness. Visualise them answering you. Then say to yourself, “I forgive myself and absolve myself of any guilt. I release myself. I’ll go forward and be happy in my life“.

4. Inability To Forgive - Insufficient grieving of a loss? Ask, “What have I lost here?” Forget about trying to forgive and concentrate on telling the story of your pain or problem to a willing ear. Find friends who can cry with you. Write letters to yourself and to others describing and lamenting your loss. Enlist the help of support group to seek professional counselling to work out your grief. Don’t give up.
