Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration

The focus for today is:  I take a deep breath and relax.

If a person gets mad at you for no reason and starts offending you, then say to yourself mentally, if not directly to the person -- "I do not accept your anger, rage, or hostility."

When you get a harsh note from someone, when there is bad news, or when you get something that gives you anxiety, take a deep breath and say, "I will not let this impact me. It cannot affect me. I am like a sieve through which water just simply runs. It cannot stick or cling to me; I will not give any voice, knowledge, or reality to it!"

If you give energy to something that is negative -- such as worry, anxiety, or fear -- then you build it to such a state that it becomes worse than any action directed toward you. Instead of resisting, try to just relax and let it pass through. If you do, it goes away. The harder you fight, the more negativity you add to it.


Today's Focus was excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:
