Don't let bitterness take root

It has been a funny journey these last few weeks. 

So much hustle and bustle with the holiday season, dealing with other people and their energy of rushing around, frustration, and deadlines. It has been overwhelming. But now that you have the chance to take a breath, slow down, be still and release. I know that the New Year is just a day and a half away but let yourself relax for just a moment. 

Go out, alone, have a cup of tea/coffee or a meal, just you, and think of nothing. Just let yourself have a quiet moment alone for just a couple hours or at least just 1 hour. Then as you come away from that moment, carry an energy of peace and calm with you. Don't allow yourself to get caught up in the bitterness of others. Don't let this energy take root, again. Understand and know that as you hustled and bustled with everyone else, you were picking up on their energy and carrying it as your own. Release this energy out to the universe  and let it be. 

You don't need to be an empath to get caught up in another person's energy, its what we can do as a human being. With these alone times, this is how you can keep a grounded energy and understand that you are in the effect of others. The alone time allows us to "see" what we have been doing, clearly and  understand that we need to either slow down and/or release this energy back to the person or the universe. 

Bitterness causes us to see everything with bitter eyes and react with bitter reactions. If you start to say things with a bitterness, spite or anger, you have let bitterness root within you and take control. 

To release this bitterness, you need to let it go and move past it. You are not the bringer of justice and if you are waiting for this, you will be waiting for a long time and relearning a lesson that should have been released a long time ago.

Say to yourself, "I turn this over to God/Goddess, Source and Universe. I know I am healthy. I know I am loved. I know I am watched over and I know I am protected. I know I am guided."

Whatever the situation or event that may have happened to cause this bitterness, or the energy you have contracted from a passerby, know you need to release it and move past it to succeed. 

I know you have been told or learned from someone that if you hold onto anger or bitterness it only keeps you from moving forward. This is true. So if you find yourself in a whirlwind of negative thoughts and actions, take a moment to check in with yourself, take that time out, and allow yourself to release it and move past it.
