Witching hour

Good Sunday morning viewers, in my darkest times I used to awake at wee hours of the night in worry and panic, always worrying about the work day ahead, how to juggle finances, lying in the still silence focused on all my problems while trying to fall back asleep. Unfortunately this still happens to me as it has become an ingrained pattern for SO many years, and although I still wake up as always around two o'clock in the morning, I've learned to focus on all the things that are going well in my life, soothing myself back to sleep in a very short amount of time. Lying awake at night and losing sleep thinking about your problems is just plain dangerous and here's why, as you go about thinking and worrying about your troubles, [bills, debts, workload, job and health related issues] you are creating more of these things for the day ahead when you wake up, because during the day our energies can get scattered, so our focus isn't too strong on any one given subject, we are simply too distracted in our current reality to manifest anything significant good or bad. When we are kept awake at night worrying about our unwanted circumstances, we are giving them our full focus and energy un-distracted, thus giving them more power and turning them over to our subconscious minds as we drift off to sleep, and the result is a perpetual cycle day after day of the same unwanted circumstances. Lying awake and losing sleep worrying about our lives should not be taken lightly, if it's not checked and course corrected, it can have disastrous results and can grow into chronic worry or worse, panic attacks and night terrors, I've gone through these things myself and my daily life was a mess, and at times a living nightmare! It's natural that these concerns, to a certain degree, can cross our minds during our everyday lives, being employed, paying the bills, doctor visits and health concerns, and that's complicated enough, but at night when we worry about all of these undesirable things we are re-enforcing and re-creating their realities in our physical experience, by of course, the law of attraction! Because I'm still conditioned to wake up in the wee hours, I've used it to my advantage, I'll think soothing thoughts and reach for that feeling of relief, or, I'll focus on my greatest desires until I peacefully doze off, leaving them to the subconscious mind to handle, another thing that's helpful is to just focus on how you want the day ahead to unfold, desired of course. This will take practice, even a small shift of focus will help, losing sleep is unhealthy enough, but coupled with stress and anxiety it's a deal breaker for a worry free life, we could safely assume that lying awake at night and drifting off to sleep in worry is like meditating for something bad to happen. If you are going through this out there, change this as quickly as possible, night time anxieties are very detrimental not only to your well being, but to your overall health as well, this can lead to serious and chronic illness and dis-ease, and should never be ignored or taken lightly. Choosing to suppress your worries and anxieties at night will only compound the issue, it must be faced head-on and dealt with and change of focus is paramount. Our thoughts trigger emotions, but intense thoughts will trigger intense emotions, and over time they gain momentum, when this happens, good or bad, these emotions become instilled beliefs, once this happens our reality will reflect these new instilled beliefs, and what we most feared, or wanted, manifests in physical form. When you lie awake at night, your thoughts and feelings are at their most powerful, this is because there are no ''daily distractions'' scattering your energy, this is why you must be focused on desired outcomes, or even better, gratitude! Your fears are much more powerful at night, don't allow them to consume you only to be waiting to greet you when you wake up, if there was ever a ''best time'' to change your focus for the better, start doing it when you have trouble sleeping, not only will it help you sleep better, the day will greet you with better circumstances. As said always in these posts, YOU create your reality, you decide what you want and allow it, but should you focus constantly on what's going wrong in your life, you will match up with those circumstances because that's where your dominant focus is, you get back what you put out, make sure you're putting out more desirable and good feeling thoughts, sleep WELL my friends.
