Managing Energy

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

In the video included in the previous post you may have noticed a contrast in your energy between the beginning and end of the film. At the start of the video it would be quite easy and common to have your energy fall and feel quite slow moving and depleted with accompanying feelings of overwhelm, stress or hoplessness. Keying into the severity and complexity of these issues can leave you depressed, despondent and depleted.It is very hard to think clearly or logically in this state.

Toward the latter part of the film there is a case made for the right use of imagination. You may have felt your energy, thoughts and feelings becoming lighter and brighter during this segment.

We all go through this kind of cycle on a regular basis but do not usually respond in a proactive way in the moment to shift it. It is important to notice this cycle and respond ASAP to clear negative, stress filled negative feelings. When we do so, our energy naturally rises and we have access to inspiration,new ideas, and  hopeful emotions that can bring new solutions or options to our dilemmas that we could not access when in a depleted or downtrodden state.

Imagination is a powerful tool that can help you create for good or ill. By itself it will take the path of least resistance and bring all your worst fears to the foreground. You get to choose how to use this fabulous tool….what do you choose?  

Toward the end of the video however there is a case made for the right use of imagination.
