Release negative thoughts and beliefs from "summary" of Closer to Love by Vex King
Negative thoughts and beliefs can act as heavy shackles that weigh us down and hold us back from living our best lives. These toxic thoughts and beliefs can seep into every aspect of our existence, poisoning our relationships, our work, and our overall sense of well-being. But it doesn't have to be this way. We have the power to release ourselves from the grip of negativity and embrace a more positive and fulfilling way of living. To release negative thoughts and beliefs, we must first become aware of them. We must pay attention to the thoughts that creep into our minds and the beliefs that shape our perceptions of ourselves and the world around us. Once we identify these negative influences, we can begin the process of letting them go. This may involve challenging the validity of these thoughts and beliefs, questioning where they came from, and whether they truly serve us. Letting go of negative thoughts and beliefs also requires us to cultivate self-love and self-compassion. We must learn to treat ourselves with kindness and understanding, recognizing that we are human and imperfect. By showing ourselves love and acceptance, we create space for positive thoughts and beliefs to take root and flourish. In releasing negative thoughts and beliefs, it is essential to practice mindfulness and be present in the moment. By staying tuned into our thoughts and emotions, we can catch ourselves when we start to veer into negative territory and course-correct before we spiral out of control. Mindfulness helps us stay grounded and focused on the present, rather than getting caught up in anxieties about the future or regrets about the past.- Releasing negative thoughts and beliefs is a continual practice. It requires patience, persistence, and a willingness to confront the parts of ourselves that we may not want to acknowledge. But the rewards of this practice are immeasurable. As we let go of negativity, we make space for positivity, joy, and love to enter our lives, transforming our existence in ways we never thought possible.
