As you think, if you view a thought as positive, you are less likely to question it. You permit it to flow what appears a natural course. Yet, when it comes to thought you view as negative, your emotions balk to cloud the issue. You may sense its beneath you. You may feel ashamed, ignore it, deny it or hope to send it back to the Source. But, why?
Fear. The thing is, you can't restrain energy. You may think you can divert it, but that's not your job. Its safe to express thoughts as they flow, even aggression. Issues arise as you block and repress energy for long periods. You see, but you don't choose to see.
Consider a flowing river. If you dam it up and water continues to flow from the origin, then the dam will eventually burst. This can also be said of blocked energy. Does your conscious mind override your body's messages? What are you diverting or hiding from?
Whenever we don't accept all our feelings or choose to express them as they are, we hide from the truth. Your sense of what works or doesn't work for you is intricately linked to your chemistry and physiology. Your values are connected to your body functions. What you think and feel diverts you from your true self-image and unwavering intrinsic value.
In other words, thought may mislead you. As you examine your views, you may be startled. Some people try to be good or righteous when beneath it all, they actually have low self-worth. To change beliefs and transcend guilt, will alter bodily experience. When you assume certain thoughts are wrong, you prevent your system from clearing and healing. You wear the consequences of diversion; mentally, emotionally, and physically.
