Happy Alternative Christmas Day! The sun shone. Crowds of people turned up. Carols got sung. Christmas dinners eaten. Bands played. Cheerful chat and laughter filled the air. Best of all, the positive energy flowed through the streets of Hebden Bridge once more. I love being in positive energy. Promoting the flow of positivity is so important. It can be too easy to notice all the little or big things that niggle, irritate or annoy. Doing so brings your mood down as surely as a deflating balloon.

This evening at the Psychic Club the Guide team wanted to talk about promoting and protecting positive aura energy. I know all too well how easy it is to take on board other people’s energy. And that it can be a struggle to clear low vibrational energy. Swapping a rain cloud for bright sunshine can feel way out of reach. Yet we can block, return or hide from low level energy so easily if we only practice. The first thing is to promote within yourself an awareness of feelings. I ask myself what I’m feeling at any moment and why. I want to see if it is really my feeling related to something that is happening now or has happened to me in the past. Or if I’ve picked up on what someone else feels.

This is because I have a choice of what to do once I know where the feeling comes from. If it’s mine from the past I can choose not to react, or to act by letting the feeling go. Alternatively I can convert the energy of that feeling into a way of taking action. It can be the ‘push’ I need to get something done. Or to make changes. Thinking about my feelings I can choose to find a positive alternative too. Added to this is that what I feel turns into the energy I give out. What you give out you get back eventually. Promoting positive energy within me then sending it out is a benefit.

Secondly, if all of us are sending out positive energy the world becomes a much more enjoyable and peaceful place. So it’s also important to protect your own positivity. I like to imagine myself in a bubble of white and pink light. I focus on making sure I feel as good about myself as I can. Promoting self love may feel a bit strange at first. Especially as making judgements seems to be a habit we get quite early in life. Self love means I have to remove the judgements I make about myself. Then I need to remove the judgements I’ve been making about other people. When I approach any contact with others doing it from a loving point of view can only be positive.

I also stay away from as much low level energy as I can. Avoiding negative conversations, news or comments, I know I will have to deal with negativity at times. We are so good at focusing on fear, anger, hurt that it tends to creep in almost everywhere.  So when I find myself in the thick of toxic energy my positive approach along with my protection is what will see me through. Even if the energy is really grim at times. When it’s really bad I look for allies. Those people present who also have a spark of positivity. I focus on sending my positive energy in their direction so that more of us can promote a positive attitude. It can be amazing to watch this work. The room gets lighter. People start to smile. Perhaps even relax out of the low energy.

At the end of today I’m tired but energised after spending time with positive people in a sea of positive energy. I know that whatever I gave out came right back to me multiplied. The Light shone inwardly and outwards too. I hope these few words can encourage you to promote your own positive energy. Life really feels much better for all of us when you do!
