Breaking Bad Emotional Habits

This is a lazy post. I didn't write it but it comes from Vibration Magazine, which I've subscribed to for about three years now. Vibration is one of the best resources I've found for information on the healing properties of flower essences. If you're not a subscriber, you're missing out. It's completely free.


Bad Emotional Habits and How To Break Them

Some folks aren’t happy unless they’re sad. Others need anger to keep them pumped up. For some people, dwelling on self‑pity or victimization become well‑worn grooves that occupy an emptiness they would not otherwise know how to fill. Here I’m talking about the feeling tone that typifies each of us. “Delores is always depressed. What a sad sack!” “Bob would rather bite your head off than say hello. He’s always in a foul mood.”

Although a broad range of emotions is possible, most of us experience and express a very narrow range. Many negative emotions that torment us persistently are bad habits we learned very early. We are no longer conscious of why they arose, so these tapes switch on automatically in stressful situations. In a crisis, we play the same tapes, only louder. Your own habits may not be so extreme, but most of us have a small repertoire of feelings that get triggered repeatedly. Here are some techniques that can help you stop falling into negative patterns, along with flower essences to help shed these habits. Read the Full Article

Enjoy, and don't forget to take a few minutes to enjoy this beautiful full moon.

Be well and be blessed,

Flower Essences For Gratitude And Abundance

I became familiar with flower essences about ten years ago through my chiropractor. He recommended Rescue Remedy to help with stress, chronic pain and depression. It seemed to help and I still use it from time to time. I've even used it with my animals. One of the strays I cared for showed up on the porch in terrible shape from a fight. I put a few drops on her food and she was completely well the following day.

Vibration Magazine has been online for a few years and now post in blog form. It's free and you can join their Yahoo group to be notified of new articles. This one is particularly timely for me: Essences for Gratitude/Abundance.

Recently an abundance of blessings and kindnesses have been showered upon me and I don't feel that I deserve most of them. I'm still in a state of numbness and shock and a lot of things aren't quite worked out just yet. Every time a negative thought filters in, I have to remind myself of how grateful I am.

Enoy, and I'd love to hear your experiences with flower essences, aromatherapy or other natural healing methods.
