I have been thinking and thinking about something to post in our blog, and thinking the whole time about how ironic it is that I should write something inspirational, motivational, and even healing when so many things that circle my life are in absolute contrast to that right now.  I have pondered why the issues that are the exact opposites of what I believe and teach so often knock at my door. I have struggled of late to over come succumbing to the same negativity these situations exude. It’s a battle that I must win. Too much is counting on it.

I read something interesting written by Dr. Wayne W. Dyer about counterbalancing negativity that I want to share here, and mostly because I need it so much myself at this time.

A  29 year study was done by a Dr. David Hawkins on counterbalancing low energy and negative people, and how we can help, not just those close to us, but all of humanity simply by raising our own vibration and God consciousness.  Here are some amazing figures from Dr. David Hawkins research to consider:

* One individual who lives and vibrates to the energy of optimism and a willingness to be non-judgemental of others will counterbalance the negativity of 90,000 individuals who operate at lower weakening energy levels.

* One individual who lives and vibrates to the energy of illumination, bliss, and infinite peace will counterbalance the negativity of 10 million people who operate at lower weakening energy levels. (Approximately 22 such sages are alive today.)

* One individual who lives and vibrates to the energy of grace, pure spirit beyond the body, in a world of nonduality or complete oneness,  will counterbalance the negativity of 70 million people who operate at lower weakening energy levels. (Ten such sages are alive today.)

Considering all of the above, by raising our own energy levels only slightly by regularly practicing kindness, love, receptivity, and seeing the beauty and the endless potential of good in others as well as ourselves, we will counterbalance 90,000 people somewhere on this planet who are living at low energy levels of hate, guilt, shame, despair, depression etc.  Now that’s powerful!  Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “Rise and Shine”, doesn’t it?
