When you find yourself beginning to feel overwhelmed by negativity, you can always choose to break the pattern. Stop whatever you are doing, and for three of four minutes focus your mind on thoughts of gratitude, acceptance and peacefulness.
Breathe deeply, and relax the muscles throughout your body. Reflect on how very fortunate you are to be alive and aware in this universe that's overflowing with positive possibilities.
Give yourself a peaceful break. Give your spirit the opportunity of resetting to a more positive perspective, and it will.
In a few short moments, you can easily and naturally break free of any negative pattern in which you may have been caught. You'll be vastly better positioned to effectively respond to whatever life sends your way.
Instead of acting out of anger or frustration, fear or anxiety, you'll be able to choose your actions based on your own positive purpose. Instead of being caught up in the grip of negativity, you'll be calmly and firmly in control.
When the negativity starts to get overwhelming, choose to interrupt it with a positive, peaceful break. You'll find it can make a profound and positive difference.
-- Ralph Marston

"Overwhelmed by negativity" Yup Doll. I have found that putting it on stop, and puffing on a USA Pal Mall cigarette--usually makes me grateful, for Canadian brands, and puts one back in a positive frame of mind.:) And yes Doll. It does get better.
