Many people have successfully used the Law of Attraction to bring greater abundance, happiness, love, and wealth into their lives. But can it also be used to help treat depression?
Perhaps surprisingly, the answer is YES! And perhaps more surprisingly, many people may have been using the law to heal their depression without even realizing it!
Things like journaling, positive thinking, and affirmations work perfectly with the Law of Attraction.
We sometimes forget it, but our own minds are one of the most powerful forms of medicine. And when that power is used in association with the infinite energy of the Universe, miracles can happen.
There are many different therapies that can be used to treat depression. It goes without saying that you should always consult with a health professional if you have any concerns about your mental health and well-being.
But you should also be aware of all the options open to you, and choose the solutions that best suit you.
There is no doubt that the Law of Attraction has helped people to treat their depression, especially as part of an overall treatment plan. But before looking at how it might help you, first we need a clear understanding of the law itself.
The Law Of Attraction: Like Attracts Like
The fundamental principle behind the Law of Attraction is the concept that like attracts like. Rather than focussing on what is wrong in our lives, the law encourages us to concentrate on what we want: more money, a better job, a new relationship, greater happiness, and so on.
For the Law of Attraction to work, first, we need to tap into the incredible power of our minds. We then use that focus to connect with the universal consciousness, asking the higher source to manifest what we truly desire.
Sometimes the mere act of thinking about what we truly want, writing it down, and focussing on it, is enough to make it happen.
The Law of Attraction says that what you give out, you get back. If you are negative, unhappy, and grouchy, you can expect to attract more negativity, unhappiness, and grouchiness into your life.
But if you radiate happiness, positivity, and good vibrations, the universe will respond to you with more of the same.
It sounds so simple, doesn’t it? And yet like anything worthwhile, the Law of Attraction does require a degree of effort to make it work.
It’s not hard work, but it does demand some commitment on your part. That said, many people find the whole process hugely enjoyable, plus there are wonderful potential benefits with no side effects.
Positive Thoughts, Positive Words
When you are using the Law of Attraction, it is of the utmost importance to use positive thoughts and positive words.
If you take one thing away from this article, it should be an understanding of the amazing potential and power of positive words and thoughts.
If I say to you “Don’t think of an ice-cream” immediately the first thing that comes into your mind is ice cream! So when you are looking for words and phrases to express where you want to get to, make sure you use positive terms.
Absolutely avoid any negative words like depression, sadness, or feeling down. There is enough negativity in your life without encouraging any more. So replace anything negative with positive expressions.
When you chose a phrase like “I want to bring to an end of my depression,” immediately the focus is on the word depression.
In addition, the words “I want” indicate a hoped-for desire, not something that already exists.
Here’s an example of a more positive expression: “I live happily and contentedly at all times, and accept who I am with grace and ease.”
This phrase expresses intention in the here and now and is full of positive connotations and good vibrations.
The Law Of Attraction: Making It Work For You
Once you have thought about your thoughts, there are a number of techniques you can use to benefit from the power of the Law of Attraction.
Many people find it useful to start with a vision board. Buy yourself a blank canvas, and fill it up with happy photos of yourself, positive phrases, and pictures of people and places that make you feel good.
The vision board acts as a reminder of what you have achieved in the past, and also of what you can achieve in the future.
Affirmations are another way of invoking the Law of Attraction. Every day, repeat to yourself what it is you want to achieve.
If you can say it out loud, all the better, but say it to yourself in your head if you have to.
Try to ensure you are in a good space when you practice your affirmations, as saying them with a good heart will increase the power of their vibration.
And as already mentioned, take care to ensure that you only use positive words.
Affirmations and vision…
