Even write them down so that you become familiar with their tricky, negative ways. Notice the toxic, depressing feel of the negative message. These messages may make you feel anxious, gloomy, sad, irritable, or downright angry. When these toxic messages arise, just practice letting go of them.

By not attaching to them? After you release the negative message, breathe fully into the open, serene space that was occupied by the negative message. By pausing to breathe, you bring your mind into the present? Now, add a dose of positivity into your routine. This is your opportunity to replace the former negative thought with a dose of kindness and self-compassion.

In this space, say something kind to yourself, such as? I am a good soul,? I am kind,? I am loved,? I am connected to my Divine??
