Early Christmas morning I walked down to my favored place on the beach and
started my Qi Gong training. It was longer than usual workout and I went
into a very deep meditative space for quite awhile. It wasn’t until
Marie came over to me to give me a big hug and a
Merry Christmas wish that I came totally back into my body.
She reads my health tips daily (www.Rechargingqigong.com)
and trains with me on the weekends. Marie asked if
I would elaborate on what Guarding your speech is all about.
In many spiritual traditions they say our
speech can be a big drain on our energy or be used as a
powerful tool to transmit energy.
Many teachers use silence to keep from wasting their energy
and my teachers always put a big emphasis on the importance of what we say and how we say it.
It’s always a good idea keep your “SELF TALK” positively
all the time. People try to say nice things to others but
when it comes to self they are constantly putting themselves
down. This is usually a sign of poor self-esteem. But it is more critical to our spiritual growth and inner development than one could imagine. This is a form of self inflicted cruelty. It will cause problems with your health. In body mind and spirit.
When we have disturbing attitudes and imprints of negativities
of speech it take the form of liquid tar, poison our mind and
flow out through the upper openings of your body:
Eyes, ears, mouth, nose, etc.
“What you say is what you get.”
As you change your Self Talk to positive, happy and productive
things they will start appearing in your life that way.
“Stinking Thinken” as Zig Ziggler called it ,is a killer of health Spirit and growth.
Here some tips to channel your Self Talk
- Say only positive statements to your self and others.
2. Only use words of kindness, this will heal you and
others instantly.
3. Walk away from conversations of gossip, slander and
other negative forms of speech. They will only
drain your Qi.
4. Avoid Destructive Speech, no matter if it’s to others or self
another drainer of Qi. If it’s not kind, true or necessary,
Don’t think it or Say It.
5. Never judge yourself or others, It waists the Energy
you have been building.
6. Your Posture reveals your state of mind-
Body language is a big give away to how and what you are
thinking. A smile on the inside will reflect our self talk
and show on your face.
7. Loose lips sink ships or” Don’t start no shit there
won’t be any shit”
8. Forgive. If you have been wronged, let it go.
Those who can forgive live healthier, happier,
and live less stressful lives.
That little under the breath comments that we may make can suck your Qi away faster than Good Old St. Nick goes.
I wish you the best in your Health, Wealth and Happiness
