I woke up last night at 2 am.
This doesn’t usually happen to me. I sleep really well. But there are things going on in my life and lots of changes on the horizon. I’m stressed. When I woke up I was wide awake with my mind racing.
What if this….. What if that…….. When should I……
Money issues, relationship issues, holiday issues, work issues………..
I couldn’t stop my mind from racing. I felt physically worse as the minutes dragged by.
I snuggled closer to my partner to feel loved and comforted as I listened to his breathing and felt his warmth. Nope! It just infuriated me that he was sound asleep and probably enjoying a great dream. Instead of poking him to wake him up and be miserable with me, I went downstairs.
As I was walking down the hallway I gave myself permission to feel however I wanted to feel – scared, worried, frustrated. That stopped the internal comments for a few seconds. “Huh,” they said, “it’s not that much fun when she doesn’t play along and get all worked up.”
Then I decided to play hard ball with the internal reel and I pulled out a couple of mantras and decided to drown out the negative with the positive.
“I am worthy of everything I desire”
“Money is love and it flows abundantly to me”
“I make decisions easily and enjoy the process”
I almost chuckled as I coached myself out of a rabbit hole of negativity. The fears and doubts were silenced. I won’t say I was able to immediately go back to sleep, but I felt a whole lot more at ease as I snuggled back into bed next to my partner.
I share this so that you know exactly how these ideas I talk about can be used in real time, in real life. As I use them daily, I am able to change the direction of my thoughts pretty quickly at this point.
Tell me, what has kept you up at night?
What worries and fears are keeping you from living the life you deserve?
Set up a call or send me an email and we can investigate them together and get you back on track!
