Many years ago I studied Kabbalah and one of their best teachings (though there were many) was to allow yourself to live your own life as the chaos happens around you, as it need not affect you if you don’t allow it in.
This is the way you achieve that goal from my perspective anyway – and trust me as a hypnotist, I care very much about what I allow into my subconscious/unconscious mind for that is the part of the mind that ‘runs’ us, the conscious mind only believes it does, but if it did we wouldn’t be doing those things we no longer want to be doing and would be doing those things we can’t seem to get ourselves to do.
Practical Suggestions:
Take some time every morning before you get up and start your day to focus on what you want to achieve during that day. For example, I am in the process of rebuilding my business to leverage it by creating both live and online courses – trust me there is a ton to learn and a ton to do. On top of that I have a few papers to write for the Master’s program I am currently in so I need to focus on that as well. So, the suggestion here is to focus on what you are creating for your life instead of the chaos around you.
Take some time to meditate or do self-hypnosis so that you can have a clear and stable emotional space from which to work.
Get some physical activity every day because our bodies were never met to stay in a seated position for hours a day. Your ligaments need to be lubricated and your lymph system needs movement to get the toxins out of your body.
Drink plenty of fresh clean water without anything added to hydrate you and that will keep you from overeating as well as keep your mood up because dehydration brings on depressed feelings.
Eat healthy one-item foods that you put together for your meals like your grandma did in the old country. Stay away from the prepackaged crap and fast foods that are made of anything but nutritious ingredients. They are made of crap and will rot your gut out while leaving your body malnourished – never good for the development of neurotransmitters we require to keep our minds functioning the way they were meant to.
Get enough sleep every night so you awaken full of energy.
Make sure the environments in which you work and live are healthy and positive. If not, change them for your own well-being.
And, mostly keep your mind focused on those things that you are grateful for and those things that you are working on bringing into your own life that you care very deeply about and feel a sense of meaning in.
If you take these suggestions, the chaos of the world won’t touch you – so long as you turn off your television, stay away from negative social media, and instead nourish your mind and soul with information that helps you to create your future the way you want it. The rest is just a bunch of sensationalized b.s. that serves nobody.
Thank you very much for this question for all those who will be reading it in addition to yourself. Sanity starts with our being focused on what matters to ourselves – not falling for that which is forced on us as truth while there is very little to prove that to be true when you actually understand the numbers and the way that various viruses or negative news affect us. I can tell you that the conventional news was made to create anxiety so stop believing it and move on with your own lives.
