Hey there beautiful human!
Today I dive into a concept that Wayne Dyer often talked about: “Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life.” This idea is rooted in the belief that if you can change what’s going on inside you, you can change what’s going on outside. This might seem impossible at first, especially when dealing with negative events or people you can’t control. You might wonder, what do my thoughts have to do with all these external factors?
To get the answer think of it as a game and begin to notice patterns in your life. Start by observing situations and people that trigger you, noticing where your energy leaks throughout your day. By recognizing these patterns, you gain the power to change them.
For instance, my husband and I can be in the same room with the same people, yet I might leave feeling triggered and upset, while he remains unaffected. This disparity isn’t about the external circumstances but about the traumas and unhealed parts within me that get reflected back through these interactions. He doesn’t have those same issues, so he doesn’t get triggered.
You take yourself everywhere you go. Even if you change your surroundings, you’ll encounter similar situations until you heal those internal issues. This process might seem burdensome—why should you take responsibility for others’ poor behavior? But instead of seeing it as a burden, view it as a power within you waiting to be accessed.
You hold immense control over your life. Your thoughts, expectations, and beliefs shape your reality. If you want a life that flows smoothly and feels good, you can create that. The key is to believe in your power to change your circumstances.
One technique I use frequently is the Ho’oponopono prayer. This Hawaiian practice is based on the idea that the world mirrors back everything going on inside us. When faced with difficult situations or people, the prayer involves holding them in your heart and repeating to yourself, “Thank you. I love you. I’m sorry. Please forgive me.” The order of the phrases doesn’t matter; the essence is in their repetition and the healing they bring.
You might wonder why you should ask for forgiveness or apologize when you’ve done nothing wrong. This is part of healing from within. As you heal internally, the external world changes. It might be hard to understand logically, but it works through the transformation of your energy and perception.
Consider this: everyone emits countless bits of energy and information. When two people interact, they draw out similar energies from each other. If someone hurts you, it’s not about blame but about recognizing shared energies and healing them. By asking for forgiveness, you open yourself to receive and then give forgiveness, transforming the dynamic.
Saying “I love you” acknowledges the oneness of all humanity. Even if someone seems completely different from you, there’s a part of them that resonates with a part of you. We all come from the same source, and understanding this interconnectedness is crucial.
When you say “thank you,” you’re appreciating the reflection that helps you see parts of yourself needing healing. You recognize that the situation has brought this to the surface, allowing you to address it.
This practice might seem abstract, but it’s powerful. When you find yourself unable to forgive or move past hurt, try the Ho’oponopono prayer. Hold the person in your heart and repeat the phrases to yourseld. You’ll find that either the person’s behavior towards you changes, or they gradually fade from your life.
This phenomenon is evident in everyday experiences. For example, a child might behave one way at home and another way at school due to different expectations and energies. The same principle applies to all relationships.
Ultimately, your expectations and unresolved issues shape your interactions. Holding onto past hurts and negative expectations keeps you stuck in a cycle. Recognizing your own power and the role of your thoughts in creating your reality is transformative.
There’s no need to go through life feeling like a victim of circumstances. You are so much more powerful than that. Embrace this power to shape your experiences. Stream your conscious efforts into accepting people and situations as reflections meant to aid your growth.
Remember, as RJ Spina says, the world is a hall of mirrors designed for self-mastery. Use these reflections to understand and heal yourself, and watch how your outer world transforms as a result.
Try it for yourself and let me know you results!
To you absolute joy, healing, and abundance,
🤍 Agnes
