Pronoia
Have you ever had the feeling that everyone was out to get you? In the extreme, this state is called "paranoia" and is distinguished as an anxiety or fear about some perceived threat. To some degree or other, we all have a touch of paranoia.
With the negative polarity being the default dominant in the Relative Field, we can see negative patterns and conditions at play on an individual level as well as globally. There are plenty of examples of entire countries displaying paranoia projected towards other nations, minority groups and unfamiliar lifestyles and beliefs that potentially pose a threat to the status quo.
In recent times, a new term has presented itself that represents the polar opposite to paranoia. The word "pronoia" has been defined as "the sneaking suspicion that the whole world is conspiring to shower you with blessings". This is describing a positive, optimistic, action oriented approach and presents a paradigm shift compared to how the majority of humanity goes about life.
Maybe the world needs a good dose of pronoia therapy! How wonderful it would be to perceive the world and everyone in it as actually working to assist you. No longer would we regard ourselves as alone in a hostile world fighting for survival. Rather, we could feel nurtured by our environment.
Try a pronoia exercise before you go to bed or as you wake up in the morning: Contemplate that something good is going to happen today and you will be supported by the world around you. Here is a suggestion for a life-affirmative statement to practice this week: "Today, I will be met with bliss, integrity, wisdom and cooperation."
So, see if you can approach your life a little differently and trust the world will be conspiring to provide everything you require to be fulfilled.
