Every Day, we get bombarded with news stories, opinions, theories and all manners of other inputs of a predominantly negative nature.
It's easy to point fingers at "The Coronavirus" or "The Pandemic," or "The Quarantine," but the sad truth is that even if these things weren't dominating our daily information streams, the media would find something else to whip up a good head of fear in people.
Even those who think of themselves as positive persons sometimes find it difficult to not get sucked down into all the negativity.
How do we stay positive, when we are surrounded by so much negativity?
How do we keep an even keel, when it feels like there's "something to be worried about," around every corner?
How do we keep ourselves from falling into a place of fear?
Positive Doesn't Mean Ignoring Reality!
In many cases, what helps most is stepping back from it all and having a look at where we are directing our energies and intent.
Without a doubt, there is a troubling and potentially dangerous situation unfolding in our world.
But that's not the only thing that's happening out there... and consequently, it's also not the only thing we should be giving our attention to!
What's often helpful is to back away a bit from thoughts about the things we "can't do," and directing more attention at what we can do.
Around here — for example — we are creating a larger than ever vegetable garden, and we have been putting a lot of energy into that. And we can set our intent towards enjoying a wonderful harvest of fresh greens and veggies in the months ahead.
We have also been working on quite a few projects and (old!) plans we can do from home that have otherwise been put off for months and even years. And it feels really good to finally get some of all those loose ends taken care of!
If you look around your own life, there are undoubtedly things you can find to keep you engaged in doing something that has a positive impact on your life and allows you to focus on something other than the chaos the world!
As often as not, you can find a measure of healing simply in being aware of the "holes" that may drag you into negative thinking... and then take steps to steer around them. It doesn't mean you're sticking your head in the proverbial sand... just that you remain cognizant of the fact that there is more going on than just Covid-19 dread!
Bright Blessings to All!
You are not alone!
