What can we do about those pesky negative thoughts of self or others that rise up from the crevices of our beings, that act to tear down our emotional calm? Perhaps we spin in a bit of self-blame. We cannot forgive ourselves for something we did, or we are caught in worry, or hanging on tightly to a hidden belief that is holding us back. These are 9 powerful mantras to help you achieve your inner strength.
Soothing
For journeys of emotional healing and re-wiring, one important key to master is the art of soothing. Soothing acts as a healing balm. For example, it smoothes out the rough spots that could slow us down or hang us up. One can get caught in negative thoughts towards self, it is then we realize that we have strayed into negative patterns. Consequently, soothing tools can redirect us and get us back on track quickly.
Powerful Mantras
Here are 9 powerful soothing mantras to keep your mind and emotions on track:
-
- There is no need for guilt or shame for my past thoughts and actions as I was either doing the best I knew how to do at the time, or bravely taking a journey away from my soul’s truth to learn a valuable lesson.
- There is always a way to turn things around, to start from where I am, to choose a different path, or to find a direction that feels better.
- I am only one person in a sea of humanity. Above all, my expression of kind and good thoughts and emotions can heal me and then will ripple out from me to heal all they touch.
- I may encounter uncomfortable feelings as I move out from what I currently know and feel comfortable with. But, soon those new uncomfortable places will become my new comfort zone.
- I am reminded that all is well and in the process of unfolding its divine perfection and splendor.
- I am only responsible for my own choices and responses. To clarify, others are looking after their own affairs, just as I am.
- If someone else has done something “hurtful” to me I don’t have to take the feeling of being hurt into my being. Therefore, it is simply their woundedness crying out and I can acknowledge their woundedness and not make it my own.
- I have the resources to make it through anything.
- I will never be done because I continue to change and evolve. There is no such thing as a point of no return. Most importantly, this is not a burden, but a blessing. It allows me to see beyond what is, to what can be. Because this is true, I know I don’t have to live with anything forever. I can be happy as I journey onward.
In conclusion, ultimately the soothing comes from the realization that there is nothing that can destroy us, nothing that can stop us. As a result, we can go through the challenges and transitions of life with calmness rather than in a state of distress or self-cruelty. Consistently affirming this over time plants within one’s being a simple yet profound change of perception and perspective that brings ease to transformation. Above all, soothing is an act of kindness to the self.
