Energy Audit

 To save the environment and finances, companies and even some households carry out energy audit. This helps them keep a check on use and misuse of energy and helps in preserving the scarce resources.
Can we do a similar exercise for our energy-physical as well as mental? Can we carry out our own energy audit? Yes, we can and we should.
Whatever outcome we get in life is mostly a result of our investment of energy. So we need to check two things:

 1. Mental energy-What kind of thoughts are occupying our mental space? Is our mind full of waste thoughts-thoughts of worry, fear, anxiety, anger, hatred, jealousy? Are most of our thoughts about the past or the future? Now just imagine if the place where we live or work is full of waste, will we be productive, be able to do what we want to do? Similarly, if the mental space is occupied by wasteful thoughts, will we be productive or creative? Never. 

2. Physical energy-Actions and words need to be in sync with thoughts otherwise there will again be a seepage of energy. 

Hence it is very important that we carry out a regular audit of our own energy. Just two simple steps:

1. After every few hours, check your thoughts. If they are negative/ wasteful just navigate consciously towards the positive and productive thoughts.

2. Before going to bed carry out a brief exercise of self introspection-visualize everything done in the day like a film. Something will be right, something will be not so right. Whatever is not so right, just edit it- say cut, cut, cut and promise not to repeat it.

These small exercises will help us channelize our energy in the right direction. And when our thoughts, words and actions synchronize in the right direction, right energy is produced and somewhere the law of attraction works and nature conspires to work with and for us:)

Have a lovely weekend!

 

3A,FL Model for Conflict Resolution

Conflicts are natural in any relationship. No two people will feel or behave the way the other does or expects all the time because we are humans and cannot always function in a standardized fashion. While it is normal to be in conflict situations, what is important is how one responds to or resolves these situations. Any relationship-in personal and or professional life can take an ugly form when conflicts are left unresolved or when there is a blame game.

For the health of the relationship and for the mutual benefit of individuals, it is imperative that there is transmission of positive energy. Energy between two people can get:

1. Reflected-we give back what we receive- positive or negative. This is the most common form of energy exchange.

2.Absorbed-while we do not give it back, we retain the negative energy and somewhere it affects our thought process, emotions and behaviour towards the sender. This happens when the receiver out of fear or respect, absorbs the negativity.

3.Transformation- The ideal form of energy exchange is when despite getting negative energy, we are not absorbing it and are sending back only positive energy. This transformation of energy is very crucial for any relationship to thrive.

I thought of a 3A,FL model that shall help in transforming energy and resolving conflicts.

Ask-1) Can I handle this situation differently?

        2) Is it important for me to feel and behave negatively?.... to lose control?

        3) Is there anything worthwhile in this person? 

Accept people the way they are, of course without compromising on values

Agree to disagree and give the other person benefit of the same

Forget & forgive

Let go  

When 3A,FL model is backed by love (for people in general) and spiritual strength, relationships will bloom and so will people.

Have a lovely weekend!
