It’s true. Health issues can eventually develop as a consequence of your continued negative thoughts and behavioral problems. That negativity moves to anger. Overwhelming you. And taking possession of your life. In short, taking away your power.

In today’s unique economic climate it’s hard not to fall into the abyss of negativism. For it to lead to anger. Loss of a job, medical benefits, a home, can quickly lead to negativity which becomes a nagging anger. Which can spiral out of control. Spill over tainting everything. From family life and personal relationships to job interviews, conversations with networking buddies who might refer you to a biz partner or job. Adding to your losses. Leading to obsessive anger.

Yet it’s essential not to allow this to happen. Not just for your own well-being but for that of your family. Not to mention it can stop you from getting the right job, starting a business. Having the life you hoped for. Dreamed of.

Negative attitudes and behaviors, which have crept into your life, can easily become toxic. And worse, when infused with anger. Not only affecting health and emotional well being, but everything within your life.

In “Anatomy of the Spirit”, Caroline Myss, PhD reminds us “To create disease, negative emotions have to be dominant, and what accelerates the process is knowing the negative thought to be toxic but giving it permission to thrive in your consciousness anyway”. For instance, she says knowing you must forgive someone yet deciding to remain angry because it gives you power.

Believe it or not, Myss says the energy consequence of negative obsession is powerlessness. Not powerfulness. Since power is energy, take it back. And spend it on those things which will help you succeed. Keep your life on an even keel. Your relationships solid and meaningful. It‘s essential, says Myss, for healing and maintaining good health.  

Start now relaxing and releasing the anger. Replacing those negative thoughts with positive ones. Write down your goals and plans. Give voice to those by discussing them with a significant other, friend or other family member. Begin rethinking who you are; what you want.

Creating a new future. And most importantly, take time for yourself. Even a walk to the corner store or park, jogging, coffee with a friend, your child’s ball game can help relax you and restore confidence. Listen to music; it’s been said not only is classical music relaxing, it helps you think. Participate. Be open and share. Do one positive thing each day to reach your goals.

Remember, no one wants to lose their job, business or home. And most of us have been through it or on the brink of it sometime in our lives. But negativity and anger generally won’t remedy the situation. So take back your power today. And you have a new sense of control over your life. Do that and you’ll soon discover how you can thrive. Even in difficult times.
