In the last post in my Law of Attraction in Action Series<\/strong><\/a>, I spoke about Changing Your Vibration<\/strong><\/a> by focusing on thoughts or doing things that make you smile. Another way to stop any negative vibrations is to get your mind into a neutral place. If you\u2019re angry or frustrated or worrying, your thoughts tend to go to the reasons for those emotions, which keeps you in a negative place and attracts more negative situations. Completely clearing your mind can take the negative out of your vibration.<\/p>\n

Doing meditation can help you achieve that. I admit that I\u2019m not good at meditating. Many people find it tough to sit still and not think about anything. But when you do, it\u2019s a remarkable place to be in. While joy fuels the Law of Attraction, sometimes you might not have any joy at the moment. If you\u2019re feeling negative, getting to a neutral place may be the first thing you need.<\/p>\n

Thoughts that create negative emotions hurt you in many ways. Anger, hurt, sadness, disappointment, etc. can greatly increase stress and make you feel physically ill. And, they send out a negative vibration which attracts negative situations. If you can\u2019t look far enough ahead to create a more joyous vibration, meditation can at least get you to a place where the negativity isn\u2019t ruling you. Your mind gets cleared so it\u2019s easier to start with m=better thoughts once you\u2019re done.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve had several articles here with suggestions for doing meditation, including Insight Into Mindful Meditatio<\/strong><\/a> and Using Meditation to Fall in Love with You<\/strong><\/a>. On Friday I\u2019ll share how I was able to shut off my mind for a while and breathe into relaxation. If you want to get a good starting point for attracting more positive things into your life, do some mediation. Stay tuned for the tips I learned that will be up on Friday.<\/p>\n

Let Me Count the Ways, a She's appeared on hundreds of TV and radio shows, including Oprah, Howard Stern, and Good Morning America and has been quoted in dozens of publications, including the New York Times, Chicago Sun-Times, Cosmopolitan, Redbook, Marie Claire, and Men\u00b9s Health. After being a consummate People Pleaser who felt unworthy of getting her own needs met for many years, Daylle found a path of self-love that enabled her to build her self-esteem and reinvent herself into a dual career. She learned to get taken seriously without being overtly assertive when she became one of the first women to start an independent record label (on a dare!) and learned to play ball nicely and successfully in an industry dominated by men. To help independent musicians empower themselves, Daylle writes music business books for Billboard\/Random House, including the very popular Start & Run Your Own Record Labe and I Don't Need a Record Deal! Daylle's books have been translated into over 10 languages and are popular around the world. She speaks for colleges, organizations and corporations. Through her company, Project Self-Empowerment, Daylle creates programs and materials to help people empower themselves. One goal is to raise the money to self-publish her book, How Do I Love Me? Let Me Count the Ways and give it away for free in colleges and through organizations, to give thanks for all her blessings. Daylle uses her writing and speaking to help others find the kind of contentment and empowerment that she has.","url":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/author\/dschwartz"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/83"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3238"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3238\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3240,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3238\/revisions\/3240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.beliefnet.com\/columnists\/lessonsfromarecoveringdoormat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
