This year I am going try a new strategy...each month I'm going to pick something that will help advance my level of consciousness. You can rise to a new high, naturally, by minimizing the lower energy emotions, thoughts and actions. By filtering out these negative emotions you do not create the positive high level emotions, you simply reveal them. The negative, or low level emotions have simply been blocking or masking the positive high that is within.
Focus on the Beauty
Blame and guilt are near the bottom of the levels of consciousness. Try to become become aware of each time they enter your mind. At the beginning, just be aware of them, how often they creep into your thoughts, how often you use them with yourself, your family, your friends or acquaintances. As you become more aware, try to dismiss the thoughts before they occupy too much time and space or are verbalized. Eventually, the habit of automatically jumping to the level of blame and guilt will be gone. You may have fleeting thoughts of guilt or blame but they will disappear quickly, they will not bring you down into a negative energy space that affects your peacefulness.
Reveal The Colour
Feeling guilty is one of the lowest levels of consciousness, (Recommended reading: Power vs. Force, David R. Hawkins, M.D., Ph. D.), it is associated with emotions of blame, and is destructive in its process. Human beings are given free will to choose their actions, feeling guilty afterward is really a waste of energy. What is done, is done. Blaming others for what has happened or for how you feel is also pointless. This habit of blaming someone else when things don't work out the way you want is very common. Blaming the weather, for example, for not enjoying the day. Try instead to do what you want despite the weather, look for new ways to enjoy yourself.
Marvel at Nature
When you are confronted with someone that is full of blame or guilt try to rise their level of consciousness with overriding positive input. Do not engage in arguing their point just add a positive twist on the situation. If you find certain people or situations difficult to manage your level of emotions, walk away or avoid spending time with them. As you become more conscious you will find it easier to block their negative emotions and you will attract more positive people and situations into your life.
The emotion of blame and conscious level of guilt are negative inhibitors that are blocking your ability to access love, joy and peace in your life. Practise awareness, and minimize the encroachment of these thoughts. Have fun and keep it simple! There is no ultimate success or failure only degrees with which you can enjoy each moment that is your life.
