Replace Addictions That Harm With More Resting Sleep That Helps Heal

 





This blog is an excerpt from the book : A Course In Emotional Energy Management (Moving Towards Happiness In Steps)


People usually use oral or visual addictions to relax as it is a norm. However, addictions are imitative behaviours which harm health and reduce happiness overtime.

If you are addicted to an external aid for relaxation like smoking, alcohol, drugs, porn, casual sex, television, sports, gambling, heavy exercising, video gaming or binge eating, you will face mood fluctuations, headaches, stomach problems and anger outbursts.

At the same time, though you may imagine that you are relaxing by using these external short cuts to stop worrying, you will actually be trying to escape confrontations with your inner voice and be troubled by a constant conflict in your being between the conscious vs. subconscious mind. Your mind will be clogged by negative thinking, patterns of similar problems will repeat in your life and the body will develop chronic diseases overtime.

While the conscious mind will warn you not to over-indulge in the addiction, the subconscious mind will force you to indulge in the addictive habit to calm down the craving of sense organs.

 The sense organs feel pressurized by constant demands of the body and mind like an overloaded computer machine.

Hyperactive body mechanisms need to be switched off by being thoughtless or sleeping off in short , two-minute naps to remain detached from worrying. Otherwise, they demand continuous fuelling by oral /visual/ sensory satisfaction.

However, to make its sense organs work overtime in alignment with the rational demands of the person stuck in the rat race thinking, the subconscious mind ignores the negative side-effects of craving and only chooses the stronger emotion of external pleasure to temporarily soothe the sense organs.

But, for long term rejuvenation of the sense organs and good health of the person, these temporary ameliorations do not work and health starts collapsing. The non -attended inner voice starts behaving grumpily like a non serviced engine of a car, the body becomes diseased and the person gets more frustrated over the long run.

Therefore, to feel happy as a long term choice, it is necessary to replace external addictions with internal addictions which naturally relax the sense organs, free the energy circuits from being tense, release positive hormones in the body and generate peace in the mind.

External addictions to relax harm your soul but internal addictions help you revive your soul’s positive frequency and increase co-creative powers by removing pressure.

Indulging in internal addictions frees space from being negative in your mind and in your environment like removing dust from the engine of the car. As a result of removing the habit of negative thinking, overtime, patterns of repetitive problems are deleted, health improves, financial situation becomes better and life becomes more peaceful even if other external circumstances remain the same.

Hence, it helps to increase happiness and feel far more peaceful in everyday life through using internal addictions than external aids to escape from negative clutches of thinking...

By binge eating or alcohol or smoking, you can make your mood upbeat for a short period but you will find yourself more depressed afterwards .

 

The simplest method of relaxation &rejuvenation in a busy schedule is to shut your mind for a few seconds or a minute, look upwards. exhale and smile. In this one minute, you can ask your mind to not think of any worries and ask the worries to come later. This method can be practiced every hour to train the mind get into a habit of relaxing by choice before it heats up and gets frustrated or angry ... Smoking has the same effect of relaxation as this exercise of looking up, exhaling and being thoughtless but it also has side effects which can be avoided by just looking upwards, exhaling and relaxing the eyes instead of using a physical prop like a cigarette.

Just as adults do not need lines to write on paper as children do, advancing souls do not need cigarettes/ alcohol/any external aid to be thoughtless as young souls do.  Happiness requires a habit of being able to switch off the mind from worrying by instantly activating detached states of mind so that inner positivity is allowed to float up as it is a natural state of feeling life .

Rejuvenation of positive strength in the body comes from resting which creates neutral space in energy circuits that is better than a tense/worried state.

Life force becomes healthier when the sense organs are switched off from over working by a choice of the mind to just focus on the inner being, as a filament of light shining and spreading light all over the body from the centre of the stomach.

It helps to close eyes, switch off the television, and be alone to meditate but you can also meditate amongst noisy children or busy adults by choosing to shut off internally, for some time.

 

Other than one minute power naps, longer meditation or focused thoughtlessness is the most effective internal addiction which relaxes your sense organs, heals your soul and improves work performance in the same time in which external addictions create hormonal imbalances.

Meditation helps to relax because several problems just resolve by activating neutral/silent energy states in the mind through detachment, that releases neutral energy of zero frequency which is neither happy nor sad . This non sad neutralized energy dissolves the grip of sadness and creates gaps in the flow of negative energy in neurological circuits.

If you can just BE idle, detach from worries and relax in peace, you would soon not need an addictive habit to escape from worries.

Alcohol, smoking, drugs and over eating are not required for calming the mind or being away from worries once you train your mind to take deliberate power naps from stress thinking by feeling calm, ideally, through staying focused on one neural activity.

 

When  you have more time, you can practice imagining feelings of being happy in visualizations so that you rise above co-creating neutral frequencies towards co-creating positive soul frequencies. Being happy is a more positive vibration than being detached and requires more mind discipline , as it has to be balanced by accompanying feelings of detachment.

Your subconscious mind is like a machine which cannot distinguish between the energy release through feelings felt in reality and imagination. The mind feels it is away from problems and free to be happy whenever you allow your subconscious mind to feel  positive in imagination .However, to remain grounded, being positive has to be accompanied with feeling calmness just as physical exercise needs to be accompanied with rest for the effects to be deeper and more long lasting.

If you do not use detachment with happy visualizations, you will feel more negative when you confront your circumstances as life on Earth can never be completely positive. However , maintenance of a  skill takes more effort than initiating it .  Hence, feeling happy in imagination even if you cannot meditate initially to stay detached/calm is better than taking drugs to feel peace. As a positive side-effect, the process of imagining happiness without using drugs,  works as a naturally uplifting vibration for the mind and brightens your creative skills . Through releasing positive hormones by feeling happy in imaginations,  you can relax literally without over- stressing your body by using your direct sense organs.

 

Examples of Internal Addictions Are:

·         All states of focused thoughtlessness which can be created as simply as by practicing looking upwards and smiling for a few seconds.

·         Regularly practiced laughter therapy which also activates slimming stomach muscles.

·         Being in silence and observing any point in the body without any worry in mind.

·         Chanting mantras as in meditation while switching off thinking of worries to activate neutral /uplifting soul frequencies.

·         Lying down to rest or sleeping to calm body tension.

·         When sleep does not come , relaxation happens also by choosing to switch off the rational mind by focusing on calmness with closed eyes.

·         Using free time for uplifting energy frequencies in the mind by focusing on positive expectations and not on complaining about all that is negative in your life or the world.

·         Practicing yoga with deep breathing exercises which soothe the mind and relax the body.

·         Water therapy  exercises ( e.g. Oiling the body parts for lubricating muscles,  hot water foot baths for releasing stress, inhaling steam for clearing tensions in the head, head massages for opening a spiritual connection through activating the crown chakra , heart opening  circulation  massages with oil on chest, swimming , water yoga, drinking water regularly etc. )

·         Practicing self –healing Soul Evolution exercises through using crystals , reek,  chakra cleansing meditations , spirit release, NLP, past life healing etc.

 

Happiness rises automatically without using external addictions, just by being free of social pressure and practicing soul evolution techniques.  Soul evolution raises positive frequencies of the body and mind. Positive hormones are released for improving health by freeing the sense organs from overloading by just feeling calm as a deliberate choice to stop focusing on worries for a few seconds at regular intervals than using food, smoking, drug or alcohol addictions to find an excuse to not worry for some time .

 

In a nutshell, it is necessary to free the sense organs from constant work to relax the body and mind and rejuvenate inner strength. Sense organs get rest when you deliberately choose not to worry by feeling calm as in neutralizing meditation, positive visualization , crystal healing or deep sleep.

 

 

Learning Task 15– Test Your Urge 

When you see a desirable food or a cigarette again, what comes to your mind first— the pleasure of smoking/ the pain of fatigue/ your loved one scolding you/ the bliss of sitting thoughtless/the need to relax? Which feeling has greatest energy? What do you choose to do? Why?

Or

Think of something you like to eat or drink, but it has some bad implications like eating ice-cream can be bad for an over-weight person or drinking alcohol can be harmful for health.  Your inner conscience/ parents/lover keeps warning you against it. How do you choose to eat/drink?  What makes you decide, what do you ignore and what do you seek? Which energy is stronger? Why?

 

Usually, the subconscious mind would choose relaxation as the predominant desire over self -discipline. Needing to escape is essential to relax and rejuvenate the senses. If you do not escape through making a regular habit of using appropriate means as internal addictions provide, the body will use inappropriate ways to relax by using external addictions or falling sick.

For freeing yourself from a sickness or an addiction, you have to convince the subconscious mind that there are better methods of resolving your emotional conflicts than feeling stressed.

 Just a s a toddler learns overtime that asking for food is better than crying for food, the young soul learns overtime that calming a restless mind is a better route to happiness than constantly crying for recreation.  Generating calmness and positive hormones by calming down negative thinking which works as the soul’s restless crying, is nourishment for the mind just as healthy food is nourishment for the body.
