Living in Alignment

As I wake each day, my number one goal is to live that day in perfect alignment with my inner spirit. I set my intentions for the day and I do my affirmations. I know I am in alignment when I am feeling calm, centered and creative. There’s a feeling of things just flowing and falling into place. When I am in that state, I feel very blissful and happy and I attract all kinds of positivity to me. I would love to say that each day I am in perfect alignment, but that is simply not true. There is always a constant struggle to maintain this state. Well, maybe constant struggle is not the right terminology here. Let’s face it, we live in a world that can be quite chaotic and demanding, which can easily throw us out of balance. In our daily lives, we encounter individuals who possess energy levels that are low and that can certainly have an impact on your energy if we are not careful and selective.

Have you ever heard of toxic people or energy vampires? You know, that person that could just walk into a room and all of a sudden there’s a thick murky aura? And then there’s those people whose energy level matches or surpasses our own, and being around them feels good. These are the people that we want in our lives. However, both types of these people exist in the world and we have to deal with each. I try to have very limited contact with people who have negative energy fields because I am not in alignment when they are in my presence. I mentally bless them with love and move on. If I am forced to be in the same room (say at a meeting) for an extended period of time with these types of people, I have to try to raise my vibration so I’m not affected by them. This can be difficult and tricky, especially if we are not aware of what’s going on. It can be all too easy to be sucked into people’s negative situations. Like the friend who’s always complaining about her life, the co-worker who’s constantly gossiping, or even that relative that thinks you are personally responsible for their mental health and well being.
In the past I was always that friend, ready to lend an ear, eager to swoop in and save the day. I wanted to save everyone. Well there’s actually nothing wrong with being loving and supporting, but ultimately you have to ensure that you are taking care of your own emotional state of being. The goal here, like anything else in life , is to try and strike a happy balance. After all, that is what being in alignment is all about. Balance. Let’s all try to work on having a little more balance in our lives each day. Our inner spirit will thank and reward us for it. Have a wonderful day!
