WHAT MIGHT YOU GIFT YOURSELF THIS CHRISTMAS?
BELIEVE IN YOURSELF AND TAKE BACK YOUR OWN POWER THIS CHRISTMAS BY TAKING A LEAF OUT OF TINKERBELL'S BOOK
As we journey through life and all the experiences thrown our way (good and bad) how we perceive these experiences is up to us. It’s a bit like: is your glass half full, or half empty?
You might believe “Good things never happen to me”. Or “I tend to be quite lucky.”
When up against difficulties some will say “I can’t do” but have they really tried? Some might blame themselves for problems and think “I deserve to be unhappy because….” Or “that person deserves happiness as I’m not good enough.”
In thinking this way you are giving away your power and no matter how down you might feel, you don’t deserve to do this to yourself. We all have a personal power supply, our connection to God, Spirit or whatever you believe in. We can use this for our own good and to help other people too.
It can be hard to see things from a different perspective, to perceive a challenging situation differently especially if you are a person who tends to pull yourself down a lot. So this Christmas, how might you try to pull your luck up a bit? How can you take back your personal Power?
The end of a year is a good time for reflection. So first of all think back over 2015 on all the times when you’ve handed over your power to other people, i.e. I’m not going to be any good at this so I’ll let someone else take over or I’ll never learn this skill so may as well leave it to the experts? If you perceive challenges as being too difficult and you start thinking like this all of the time, you are giving your power/spiritual energy away to others.
People who are successful, gain respect and admiration from others. This positive power coming their way helps them gain in confidence, helps them believe in themselves more and gives them the power to shine, physically and spiritually.
So rather than thinking negatively and perceiving situations as being too big a challenge for you, try to turn negative thoughts into positive ones. “I will be as good as other people at this” or “I will keep trying until I have learned this skill,” or “I do have it within me to achieve my goals.” This is how you can take back your power/positive energy.
It can be easier said than done but try to perceive difficult situations as a challenge to overcome. Put your trust in your Angels/Guides. Ask them not to give you difficulties you cannot handle but accept that through going through and overcoming difficulties in life, you become a stronger person. This can provide you with the ability, too, to help those who are struggling because you have been through it before. You know what they are going through.
Try to see things from a different perspective. Tell yourself you can and will get through challenges that are ahead. Tell yourself that you do deserve a little happiness when the chance of this comes your way. We all have the ability to become more empowered, spiritually.
Everyone is different and needs/expect different things out of life but if these words mean something to you: the gift you could give yourself this Christmas is to love yourself and believe in yourself. Tune into your intuition and trust your instincts. Set realistic goals, of course, and then believe that you can and will achieve them. Don’t keep telling yourself that you aren’t good enough, you aren’t a nice person or other people are better than you. Tell yourself you are perfect being the person you are.
How many of us loved Peter Pan when we were younger? … Perhaps still do! Think of Tinkerbell and how her light began to fade because people were saying that fairies didn’t exist. One of tinker Bell’s most memorable comments was “Every time someone says I do not believe in fairies, somewhere there’s a fairy that falls down dead.” Then children everywhere began to say the magic words “I believe in fairies, I do, I do, I do.” These are your magic words for 2016: “I believe in myself, I do, I do, I do.” No more telling yourself you aren’t good enough or you don’t deserve good things to happen to you. Instead, remember your magic words.
One other gift I’d like to give you this Christmas, if you are missing a loved one who has passed and you’re longing for a message but haven’t yet had a reading. Or you just want to feel them with you: know that even if you can’t feel them, they are still around you. If there is anything you would like to say to them, talk to them as if they are sitting in the room with you. Finally, I’m drawing on another of Tinker Bell’s comments:
“You know that place between sleep and awake, the place where you can still remember dreaming? That’s where I’ll always love you.”
Believe in this as a message from your loved one to you, this Christmas.
Happy Christmas x
