No matter how wrong, offensive or inappropriate we think someone or something is, going on a mental judgment binge does little good. These negative rants bring our minds into a stew of unpleasant and distasteful thoughts that tempt us to keep stirring. Our subconscious minds don’t separate the thoughts we think about others from the ones we have about ourselves, so this toxic rumination lowers our self-esteem and steals our energy. The best thing to do when we catch ourselves mentally spinning is to replace the thoughts with a mantra of high vibration…

I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you.
