Many times, releasing the energy of destructive thoughts and emotions does not feel like a choice, but at the highest level of your existence, it always is.

If you struggle to pull yourself out of a loop that brings you back to old destinations within your mind and heart, it may be helpful to look at the pathways you use to release the energy that is stuck. In other words, you may benefit from building new exit roads.

Imagine you get stuck in a traffic jam on the freeway. Your options are limited. You can either stay stuck until the obstruction clears or you can get off at the next exit and take another route. When you are dealing with moving the energy of thoughts and emotions, your range of options is limited only by your creativity. You never have to stay stuck with them and you have many routes you can choose to take to move forward.

For example, if you are the type of person who believes you can only move past an argument by speaking your mind and getting your feelings out on the table, but find that this option is not available to you without setting unfavorable consequences in motion, it may be helpful for you to try another way to release energy. You can, of course, choose to stay stuck with it, but it will likely call for your attention at some point down the road, and when it does, there is a good chance it will have turned into an angry beast!

A creative outlet for that energy may be a meeting with your adversary in the ethers. You can say everything you need to say to release the energy without dire worldly consequences, particularly if you are mindful about the exchange. While it may sound silly to have an imaginary conversation, it is important to understand that you are still releasing energy, if you approach the event with intent.

It is important to keep in mind as you are using this creative exit route; thoughts become things. If you are throwing thought daggers at your adversary, make sure to visualize an energetic perimeter around your meeting spot. Have the intent to keep the energy of the thoughts as they leave your mind in the contained space. When you are finished releasing, invite your most trusted guides and angels to neutralize what is contained in the space with pure energies of love. You will likely feel better and be ready to move forward without having contributed the energy of chaos and anger to the shared collective atmosphere.
