The Daily Lightwave 💖
In the yoga sutras there's a concept called pratipaksha bhavanam. Simply put it's means to exchange the negative for the positive. It's a way of mastering the unruly survival mind's well-intentioned focus on negativity. What I'm realizing is that the negative can only seem to exist as a shadow side to the positive. Negation has no life of its own, but rather exists solely to negate the positive. This is so helpful to remember when the mind is trying to take us down a tailspin of negativity. Instead of going along for the ride, we can see it as a sign of the positive flow that's already there. Then we use it to focus our mental energy on the positive, to bring it to the surface, and magnify it. Then we become part of creative flow by mastering the mind.
