Practicing gratitude leaves no room for negativity to creep in.\u00a0 When you are feeling exceptionally stressed or angry, list three things for which you are grateful in that moment.\u00a0 It feels awkward at first, but by the time you list the third item, you may notice your negative emotions have been neutralised.<\/p>\n<p>Letting go of the emotional hand cuffs is one step to creating an amazing future.\u00a0 Physical things like grounding yourself in nature on a regular basis, meditation and surrounding yourself with people who are supportive will make the shift easier. Shielding yourself form negative people or \u201cenergy vampires\u201d is a process but can be consciously developed and once you learn how to be happy, you naturally gravitate to those who are the same and won\u2019t tolerate being around those who make you feel anything less, allowing you to embrace the positive and bright future you deserve.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Live Psychic readings by experts\" href=\"http:\/\/astromara.com\/Psychics-Clairvoyants-Readings-Telephone-Text-Service.php\">For a Psychic reading to understand your past &amp; embrace your future <strong>Click Here &#8211; Psychic Readings<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Online Astrology Horoscope Reports\" href=\"http:\/\/astromara.com\/products\/\">To choose your inspiring Astrology Horoscope report &#8211; <strong>Click Here<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Accepting your past, embracing your future \u201cThe first step to getting anywhere is deciding you\u2019re not willing to stay where you are.\u201d\u00a0 Unknown That broken record plays over and over in your head.\u00a0 The memories pop up and the resulting emotions leave you stuck, unable to move forward into a new refreshing life.\u00a0 Round and &hellip; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/accepting-your-past-embracing-your-future\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Accepting your past, embracing your future<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[5,4,52,46,79,78],"class_list":["post-129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-astrology-guidance","tag-astrology-help","tag-astrology-lovers","tag-free-horoscopes","tag-psychic-readings","tag-release-the-past"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":135,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129\/revisions\/135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.astromara.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
