Community Energy

So it’s over – we stayed up to watch the election results, McCain’s and Obama’s speeches. My wife cried during Obama’s speech.

I am so glad it’s done. I was very tired of all the political ads and the negative energy that was expended. It’s funny – all that money spent on so much negativism. I really found it disturbing to me in a very deep way. I noticed that today, I had more energy, and I was in a better ‘space’.

While a lot’s changed, many people remain in the same dire straits, with the holidays coming on us. It’s going to be an interesting time this year. I spend time meditating and sending positive energy into the world, this country, and this community. I’d recommend we all do the same. I believe the more of us that put this energy out into the world, the more change we’ll see.

So I’m putting out there, once a month, to gather for a community meditative experience. Let’s get together and combine this positive energy and send it out into the world.

Let me know if you’re open to doing this with me. Email me at dennis@cincinnatitherapyguy.com

Law of Attraction

People talk to me about ‘why do I always seem to wind up dating some loser’, or ‘how is it that I always pick friends who take advantage of me?’

I believe in the law of attraction. What you, me, any of us focus our thoughts, emotions and energies on in this Universe, we attract to us. People who worry about ‘finding Mr. or Ms. Right’, or ‘am I ever going to find a job I’m happy with’ are sending out into the universe negative energy – their focus is on what they don’t have, and this attracts more of what they don’t have. However, when they focus their thoughts and energies on what they do have, such as ‘I have good friends now and I know I’m going to find Mr. or Ms. Right’, or ‘I am grateful that I have a job and I’m looking forward to the day when I have a job I’m happy with and in’ their energy shifts, sending out positive energy into the universe, and attracting more of what they have. This can be difficult because we live in such a negative world. It seems to me that a lot of people are so pessimistic about life, and if everyone around them is negative, they often take on those same attitudes, which only attracts more negativity.

Changing how you think and focus your energy is not an easy task, especially if you’ve been in this same thought and energy pattern for a while. However, it’s not impossible. One of the things I have found to be helpful, in my life and with others is creating a ‘gratitude list’. This list, which you spend at least 5 minutes every day writing, is a list of those things you are grateful for. The list doesn’t have to be ‘big things’, like, ‘I’m grateful for my car’ (although that can be something to be grateful for), it also includes those everyday things. ‘I’m grateful for this day’ or ‘I’m grateful for breaks at work’. Finding things to be grateful for can be difficult at first, but think of the small things – ‘I’m grateful for having shoes to wear’. Over time your gratitude list will grow – you’ll be focusing on what you have, not what you don’t have, and you’ll begin attracting more of what you want.

It’s about trusting The Universe.

Do the people around you have positive attitudes? Do you draw from the energy of those around you? Do you feel you give off good energy?
