What Are You Avoiding?

Have you caught yourself in the act of avoidance lately?  Are some of your life’s cornerstones becoming a bit hard to keep in their appropriate place?  Are you somehow out of alignment?

There are times when life’s events approach us in such ways that they seem just too difficult to digest.  We take a protective approach by trying to ignoring or push aside these issues rather than dealing with them in more appropriate manners.

We push these conditions or issues aside hoping that they will disappear or at the very least lesson in intensity.  However upon reflection, we realize that they cannot be pushed aside as they will return again and again until they are faced.

Facing challenging conditions in life can be very trying and at times extremely difficult, but running away from life’s challenging conditions never solves the issues.  We have to come face to face with each hurdle in order to deal with it, learn and then move on.  It will be difficult but sometimes ignoring an issue only invites a larger, harder lesson in the future.

Often when one finally decides to deal with the issue, we recognize that the problem is not near as difficult as it appeared.  The mind has a tendency to exaggerate things and often blows many issues out of proportion.  When we face issues, we see them as they truly are.

Confronting our fears always lessons our anxiety to any situation although the ego would like us to think otherwise. 

How often, for example, do people worry about health issues and become completely distracted from life as a result of their focus on “maybes” and “what ifs”.  Many will spend timeless days worrying about something and then eventually discover that there was actually nothing wrong.  The stress of worry can manifest many symptoms and if not kept in check, can manifest true “dis-ease”.

Power of suggestion such as those suggestions through media advertisements can plant seeds of worry.  With the continual, repetitive suggestions that we are bombarded with in all types of media, we can develop physical conditions and believe that the feelings we are experiencing are real.  If left long enough we experience prolonged agitation and nervous anxiety builds and then we can become obsessed with an idea.

If we take control of our thoughts and fears to focus on more positive ones, we can ease many situations and finally release ourselves from any perceived physical conditions.  If, however, you feel that there is actually something physically wrong, a physician should be consulted.  If there is a health issue, it can be dealt with immediate.  If there is not a health issue, you will be reassured that there is nothing wrong and remove the worry.

Often times, we will come to realize that our concerns are ego generated and once this is acknowledged, the conditions will usually fade spontaneously.  If we find the conditions persist, talk to someone.  Finding relief should be our primary concern either through medical avenues, if warranted, or through focusing our thoughts in a more positive, grateful direction.  The mind can interfere on many levels and physical ailments are just one example of many.
