Soothing on All Topics (add yours!)

Topic: Soothing stress about neighbours

- I've lived next door to good neighbours in the past
- These neighbours may not stay there forever... who knows, they may even move out sooner than anticipated
- I guess even these neighbours have some positive aspects as well, maybe I can think about some of those
- There are certain areas of my home where I don't feel or notice the effects of these neighbours very much
- There are certain things I can do that are in my power to soften the effects of these neighbours; to make my situation feel a little better. (Ear defenders, soundproofing, setting up in a different quieter room, offering to pay for the improvements I want done etc)
- I like the idea of the Abraham Inactive Box technique that I can try to apply here to inactivate the things that are bothering me about these neighbours. I liked hearing some success stories people have had with this technique.
- I even have the choice to move homes if I want, and next time I can carefully check out the neighbours and check out the noise levels in the rooms and all other matters that I've sifted-and-sorted-to-learn are important to me, before moving in.

Topic: Soothing a relationship issue

- Nothing is set in stone; people change; relationships change - maybe it's even possible that change could also happen for the better in this relationship.

- They do have some positive aspects to them
- I do like this thing about them
- I like seeing that they are caring about this thing which shows they are caring.
- I like seeing that they can be kind to this person which shows they can be kind
- I like seeing that they can be thoughtful about this thing which shows they can be thoughtful

- When I really get into a task, I can enjoy it
- I can use my creativity to make fun games out of some tasks to make them a little more interesting and fresh.
- I can try to beat my last attempt at a task each time to see how quickly / how much better I can do it, to add a new dimension to a familiar task.
- I can see how others in my field do things to see if I can learn from their approaches and maybe adopt something new from this observation
- I enjoy improving my method of accomplishing tasks.
- I can experiment with new techniques, technologies and approaches to old tasks to make them feel fresh.
- I'm going to watch for more ways that I can be of value. I really like to feel of value.

Topic: Soothing worries about the state of the world

- Worrying about things that have nothing to do with me isn't really helping the situation. I can't worry the world into well-being!
- There have always been conflicts in the world somewhere - this isn't new. The fact there are conflicts somewhere doesn't mean the world is deteriorating - it's just part of the contrast of the world, and always has been.
- Usually the majority of people affected by world issues do survive.
- There are people that evacuate areas safely.
- Most of what is actually around me directly is harmonious
- I rarely see problems I hear about on the news directly around me
- As technology develops, we have more resources to solve some of the world's problems.
- Some of the Earth's nature problems may just be part of the natural weather cycles and patterns of the Earth and not all down to real problems.
- There's much more wellness in the world than sickness
- The standard of life worldwide is improving
- For most of the world, things are getting better and better.
- I can choose to focus on those pockets of the world that are having problems, or I can choose to focus on the majority of the world that is doing fine. It's my choice. And what I focus on is what remains active. So by putting the power of my focus on harmony, I can help to diminish the disharmony in the world. I like knowing that.
