How does a Change of Scenery Help?
Sometimes you need a change of scenery.
This can be a tiny shift, or it can be rather immense, depending on the time and situation. A change of scenery, however slight, can go a long ways towards building Positivity.
Clean off your desk, rearrange your furniture, change out your décor, change your body wash, look at some digital images you have on your computer or phone or online. Reposition and move about the small things around you that you can.
This can involve movement, while remaining a simple action. Get up and walk. Look out a window; go stand in the sun; stand in the rain; get up and stretch. Grab a cup of coffee, go chat with a neighbor for a few minutes. Pet a cat or dog. Just do something, any small movement, to shift your environment.
This can involve more time and effort. Go for a hike, go to a movie, see a concert or a play, take a drive to look at the foliage, go to the gym, go for a swim, take a walk around your neighborhood, go for a bike ride, go eat lunch at a park, find and hug a tree. Take time for yourself.
This can be much more involved. Take a trip somewhere other than where you call home. Fly across an ocean. Drive across the country. Follow a pilgrimage route. Start learning something that you have never done before.
And of course, this can also be a rather drastic change of scenery. Move across the country. Quit your job and move to Europe. Sell everything you own and relocate and totally start over somewhere new. Go on an extended walkabout.
A change of scenery changes your energy and can raise your frequency.
Whether subtle or drastic, a change of scenery, literal or figurative, can make a huge difference towards your Positivity. The rote routine can be mind-numbing, and it can frustrate and infuriate, as well as lead you towards negativity in your world. An environmental shift, a change of scenery, can really clear cobwebs and help you gain new focus and perspective.
Consciousness creates reality. If your current environment is stifling your energy, your creativity, or generally leaving you feeling blah, a change of scenery may be the answer. Subtle or major, taking control over this particular aspect of your life can help improve your emotions and mood. This is a simple change that can have a large impact.
It’s amazing how a subtle change of scenery can shift your mood, and help you to find more positivity.
I know that sometimes we get stuck in a situation where this feels difficult. Finding a subtle change can go a long ways towards altering how you are feeling, and finding and building Positivity. Change that you are choosing to make can also help prevent unwanted and drastic changes down the line.
Finding positivity is not hard, but it does require action.
Knowing that you can create a change of scenery, whether subtly or drastically, you can shift how you are feeling. When we actively do things that will change our surroundings, we take more control over our emotions, and as such we empower ourselves. When we feel empowered, we often spread that feeling to others around us, and as such can build more positive feelings. We can use the positive feelings this generates to dissolve negative feelings. When we take away negative feelings, we open up space to let in positive feelings, and that is something we can be grateful for. Gratitude leads to happiness. Happiness is the ultimate positive attitude. Positive attitude begets positive energy, and that is always a good thing.
This is the two-hundred and thirty-fourth entry of my Positivity series. It is my hope these weekly messages might help spread positive energies for everyone. Feel free to share, re-blog and spread the positivity.
