Feeling Overwhelmed is always a symptom of not being in the moment. Your body is HERE, but your mind is thinking about something else that you “get” to do!
Feeling overwhelmed SERVES you to cause you to recognize when you are not in the moment, and also may be your unconscious mind signaling you that you have items in your life that do not move your life mission forward, so therefore, you will not have the energy to accomplish it!
Your unconscious mind and your feelings serve you to show you what your thoughts are thinking about! It’s as if they are saying, “Knock, knock?? Are you in there? Do you see these thoughts you’re thinking? Do these thoughts serve you????”
PRIORITIZE!! Maybe there are activities on your plate that don’t really move your life mission forward. Allow feelings of overwhelm to serve you by pointing out to you that there are things you can delete from your schedule!
Organizational skills are carried in the Liver. When your liver is tired, your ability to prioritize will suffer. Think thoughts about your liver “cleansing”. Think, “My liver is cleansing. My liver is oxygenating. My liver is resting and healing. My brain is sending healing energy to my liver.”
Now, an energy medicine practitioner can do a “liver cleanse” on you, but really, you can do it yourself by thinking those thoughts! If you knew all the right thoughts to think, you’d never need a health practitioner of any kind!
The limiting beliefs that precipitate feelings of overwhelm are:
1. Lack of belief in abundant supply (in this case, of time!) Lack of belief that there is enough time is simply because you are doing things you don’t need to be doing, and your unconscious mind knows it!
2. Lack of belief in abundant supply of money! Believing that there’s not enough to go around, you THINK you “have to” hurry up and “make some”! It’s a “manic panic attack” based in fear that there’s not enough to go around!
Dr. John Gray teaches that there are 12 primary emotional blocks that trip people up, and each of these blocks require the feeling (releasing) of three underlying feelings in order to release the emotional block. Soon I’ll write an entire article about all 12 of those blocks, but for the subject of this article, let’s examine the blocks that relate to feeling overwhelmed.
The emotional blocks that cause overwhelm and the underlying feelings that you need to allow yourself to feel to release them are:
1) Resentment (that I don’t already HAVE.)
Releasing feelings: jealousy, hurt, scared.
2) Self Pity that I have to do all this to “GET”.
Hurt, scared, shame.
3) Indecision, if it will “work”.
Disappointment, worry, embarrassed.
4) Anxiety that I am unsure it will “work”.
Scared, shame, anger.
Then, finally, get IN THE MOMENT! Looking back at the past doesn’t serve you, as the Universe only has one time-frame; NOW! When your body is here, but your brain is somewhere eels trying to figure out the past, or trying to figure out the future, or worrying about what MIGHT happen….All of that is NOT in the moment thinking! Your blessings can only come to you in the here and now; Not being in the moment prevents you from receiving the abundance that would otherwise flow to you!
Anchor yourself to the moment by touching something near you, and noticing it; The color, the wood-grain pattern, etc. Get in the moment, then….
Count Your Blessings!
They’re flowing!
