When it’s Time to Say Goodbye

from The Dr. Pat Show: Talk Radio To Thrive By! with Dr. Pat Baccili · host The Transformation Network™

How do you feel when you have to say goodbye to someone or something you love? Maybe it’s a loved one moving on. A child leaving home for college. A parent passing on. An unexpected divorce. The loss of a beloved pet. An injury or illness. A job loss, or the end of a career. Are you more likely to feel grief or gratitude? Sorrow or celebration? Anxiety or appreciation? Fear or opportunity? More importantly, how well do you process these feelings, especially if they are troubling? Do some of these feelings linger for long periods of time? Perhaps forever?  In this episode of The Change Mastery Show, John J. Murphy will challenge you to be mindful of your feelings about loss and recognize that whatever you are feeling, you are asking for more. Extended grief will bring you more to grieve. Gratitude for the experiences you have had will draw in more experiences that bring you joy. Fear will attract more fear, while positivity will free you from the weight of suffering you bear. This is universal law. Certainly, it can hurt to say goodbye. This is a human phenomenon. It can also reveal a deep sense of self-regard and egotism. When a loved one dies, do you think they want you to hurt? Or are you hurting because you have attached your feelings to something you cannot control? Does your loved one hurt? Or have they moved on to a realm of pure joy? These are thoughts that are worth contemplating. John has certainly done so, and he will share how shifting his mindset from suffering to salvation has made a world of difference with the many losses he has experienced – personally and professionally. The same opportunity is available to you. You will discover:How to process loss and grief in a positive way. What does it mean to let it in the front door and out the back door without “inviting it for tea?”How to understand human feelings as frequencies of energy that can shift when you take ownership and change the “channel.” What does a shift in mindset look like in terms of application and experience?How to turn loss into opportunity with a shift in mindset. How do look at any situation as a “blessing in disguise.” What does it mean to be grateful for your problems?
