The Law of Cause and Effect in
Daily Living
Live Consciously and Take Responsibility for Your
Outcomes
|
The Law of Cause and Effect basically states that for every movement of energy
such as in a natural happening, or a human thought that takes the form of an
image, feeling, desire, belief, expectation or action there is a corresponding
effect. For this reason the Law of Cause and Effect influences every aspect of
your living experience. To determine why your living experience is of a certain
quality or why something has come into your life, you simply need to discover
what causes preceded the effects. If and when you like the effects you are
living with then you keep the causes. If not, then you change the causes so as
to create a different effect.
In order to make the most of the Law of Cause and Effect, you must live
consciously and recognize that you are the creator of your own reality. This
concept is not fully accepted by those who insist on pointing the finger of
blame at everything and everyone but themselves for their less than desirable
circumstances. "Victims" of circumstance, while living unconsciously, will do
their best to disprove the Law of Cause and Effect with their own personal
experience by angrily saying such things as "I work hard every day and look
where it's gotten me," not realizing that their anger and negative attitude has
kept them from getting the long desired promotion. The fact that negative
attitudes never lead to positive outcomes no matter how hard you work hopefully
leads to the following realization:
|
The causes that lead to your personal
living experience must be holistic in nature. Causes that lead to positive
effects must contain elements of a healthy Spirit, Mind, Body and Emotions.
|
Those in need of emotional health, healing, maturation and/or expression may
find themselves achieving it only to realize the necessary work ahead of them
in mending and amending the many effects that were caused by the thoughts,
beliefs and behaviors of yesterday, last year, or what may seem to be of
another lifetime. The good news is that it is worth the work. Having a sincere
desire to mend and heal the effects caused by the "Past", and doing so, will
lead to future positive effects and a more positive living experience. The
first place to start in becoming more conscious of the role the Law of Cause
and Effect plays in our lives is in becoming more conscious of your thoughts.
Your thoughts are the one thing that affects every thing else in your life.
Thoughts take many forms and have an attractive mechanism that attracts energy
to it. The energy then manifests according to the thought be it in the form of
a fear, fantasy, choice, desire, belief, behavior, outcome, etc. This is why it
is said that if you dwell on something long enough, and put enough passionate
energy into it, then the effect is that it can, and will become your next
reality.
Many of your thoughts lead to immediate effects. Being more conscious of the
quality of your thoughts, and their effects, enables you to quickly alter
undesirable outcomes. In many instances, by simply thinking of a more
appropriate thought you can immediately create a more desirable outcome. Think
before you speak. In other words, pause for the cause by thinking of the
outcome you desire instead of blurting out words based on unprocessed fears,
anger, or emotions. When you feel compelled to speak out without thinking it
through, PAUSE, take a deep breath, and simply tell yourself, "Relax - What's
my outcome," then picture the outcome you desire and begin to move in that
direction. There is no rush. You don't have to speak out immediately nor do you
have to act out immediately. It is often best to remain quiet in order to think
of the best, most resourceful response, behavior or plan of action.
The Law of Cause and Effect incorporates other subjective laws such as the Law
of Attention that basically states where your attention goes energy flows, or
what ever you focus on will expand in that direction, good or bad. The Law of
Karma is similar to the Law of Cause and Effect in that it basically states
that what we send forth to the Universe comes back to you. In other words what
goes around comes back around, or you reap what you sow. Think wisely.

& Therapeutic Touch program at the University of Texas at Brownsville on

Mind, Body, and Spirit methods now developed to affect healing. In addition,
energy transfer for healing is well established in major health centers in this
country and practiced by physicians, nurses, chiropractors, physical therapist
and alternative healers. Energy transfer allows you a dimension of healing that
has hot seemed possible, reducing inflammation, affecting deep relaxation and
improving health outcomes. In this program, participants will learn Holistic
Healing practices and Therapeutic Touch. The program is designed for nurses,
doctors, chiropractors, and physical therapists. 16.8 contact hours are
available for medical professionals. Contact chayes@utb.edu
