I am so proud of myself for being such a positive person– it’s something I got from my tatay. I believe that through every dark cloud of despair there would always be a silver lining and I would always look for it in every situation so as not to dwell on its negative side.
But two weeks ago, I was feeling so down and depressed because of everything that’s happening in the country. I felt so helpless. Araw-araw akong may anxiety attacks and I couldn’t sleep. I would always wake up around 1am – 3am tapos hindi na makatulog… there was that feeling of uncertainty again…and of hopelessness.
So I decided to give everything a rest. I stopped listening to the news every morning at namahinga rin ako sa social media. Hindi muna ako nag-scroll sa facebook, nag-post sa Instagram, I didn’t even take photos of food — which usually makes me feel better, btw.
After about five days, I felt a bit better and I felt a tinge of hope that somehow everything would be alright later, if not sooner.
LAW OF ATTRACTION
I have always believed in the Law of Attraction and practice it everyday. Alam na natin that energy ebbs and flows. So whatever energy we have outside or near us can greatly influence our energy state. Kung ang postive energy ay nakakahawa, so is negative energy.
Negativity Blocks the Blessings in your life.
Disconnection from negativity can bless your life.
If you have a lot of negative energy in you, it could greatly affect the blessings in your life that you are trying to attract. So what you need to do is to disconnect from it, right? Disconnect physically and emotionally.
WHAT ARE THE SIGNS THAT YOU NEED TO CLEAR NEGATIVE ENERGY IN YOUR LIFE?
- You’re always angry – When you feel that you’re always angry whatever the situation is. Anger is very unhealthy and sometimes it takes over all the other emotions. You have to minimize it or better yet eliminate it completely.
- Feelings of anxiety or depression.
- Constant complaining – people complain as a way of venting out their emotion. They feel like it’s their way of letting out what they feel inside to feel better. But if you do it more often than you should then it’s something that needs addressing.
- That feeling that you need to be alone – I always feel this when I’m depressed. I try to avoid nteraction with other people and isolate myself.
WHAT I DID TO CLEAR THE NEGATIVE ENERGY AND IMPROVE MY MOOD
- I PRAYED – I found this prayer to clear not only my energy but the energy of our home.
A Prayer to Clear Your Home’s Energy
Dear God,
Please send extra angels to my home, and clear away all energy of fear, uncertainty, sadness or anger.
Thank you for infusing my home with your pure loving energy
so that everyone who enters the house is filled with joy.
- I STARTED DECLUTTERING – I let go and threw away some of the things that I’ve been keeping just because “I might use it someday” but hasn’t been used for years. A clean, orderly space feels light and bright and order is restored.
- I STARTED A GRATITUDE PRACTICE – I started a gratitude journal before and I tend to write down whatever I’m grateful for each week but I got busy and forgot all about it. This time, I just do it in the morning. I give thanks to God to all the things I am grateful for at that moment.
- I STOPPED MYSELF FROM WORRYING – overthinking things tend to get the best of me and putt me down. So I just stopped and seized every moment.
- I COOKED – cooking relaxes me, so that’s what I did and then we ate everything without it being photographed and posted on social media.
- I FOCUSED ON WHAT TRULY MATTERS TO ME – which is my family. I bonded with Twinkle and Ykaie all day, everyday that five days that I didn’t do anything.
- I STARTED EXERCISING AGAIN – working out helps me clear my head and shed negative energy…plus endorphins 🙂
Today, I can say that my mood has improved tremendously and I can look at things positively again. I’m crossing my fingers and hoping I won’t get affected with too much worries and negativity.
Kayo, kamusta kayo mga inay?

Thanks for this wonderful message momsh 💖 me din tlaga sobrang naiistress na pero I keep on fighting para sa family ko especially sa mga kiddos ko. Laban lng tayo at stay matatag.😇💖
I am a single parent with two kids, both are in different father. My life is a mess, and sometimes I feel so worthless because my parents still supports me financially & also my 2 kids. Yes, life is not always good, but I’m still happy & blessed that I have my kids on my side. My parents are also helping me in taking care of my kids. The usual thing I do when I’m sad & tired is cooking/eating my favorite food or sweets. Most importantly, I pray. Thanks for this blog I learned how to handle my sad emotions 💕 I am also your follower on Instagram & Fb. I fell in love with the food you’re blogging, seriously. Keep on food blogging po Mommy Peach! Love lots!
Nakakainspire story m momshie ako dami din ako pinag daanana sa buhay pero lahat un kinaya k at naging postive ako na lahat ng un makakayanan k kasi pagsubok lang un.At sa tulung ng aking pamilya naging matatag ako.
Hindi talaga maiwasan na magkaroon tayo ng anxiety attack. Pero tayo rin ang makakatulong sa ating mga sarili pray lang parati at maging postive, makipagusap palagi sa mga loved ones natin
Relate much ako dito, karamihan cguro sa atin ay na depressed sa mga nagdaang months even hanggang ngayon. Kung iisipin mo tambak na Mga utang, walang trabaho ang asawa tpos buntis pa, subrang na stress dn ako. Mabilis ako Naka recover dahil palagi akong tinatawagan ng Nanay ko kahit malayo nsa Samar kac sya, sya Yong nagpapalakas sa LOOB ko na dapat lumaban ako para sa mga Anak ko.
Labanan natin ang mga depressed,stressed at mga anxiety na umaatake sa atin, ako Mommy Peach ang madalas ginagawa ko nililibang ko sarili ko nanonood na lng ako movies na mga funny para kahit paano maiwasan ko mga stressed na mga dumarating sa buhay.. Good vibes lng palgi..😊
Wala talagang makakatalo sa prayers mommy. Kahit ano pa man ang nararanasan nating problema sa buhay, pray lang ng pray kay Lord.
Thank you sa pag remind last week lang din i feel empty. Umiwas muna din ako sa socMed kaso di kaya kasi dami ko sinasalihan na promo at may nag iinquire sa binebenta kaya di maiwasan. True po laki ng effect kapag nega sa mga bagay bagay kaya ako hanggat maari nilalaro ko mga anak ko. Nakaka wala sila ng stress konting harutan yun solve na ulit. Bawal maging nega si mother kasi damay lahat. Kaya i always inhale exhale. Dagdag motivation mga nabanggit mo Mommy Peach
Thanks for this inspiring message this pandemic marami talaga tayong pinagdadaanan maraming naapektuhan Ng pandemya n Ito. All we need is to be strong and be positive this too shall pass we all get through this
Good to hear na umokey kana mommy. Hindi talaga maiwasan na magka anxiety attack tayo especially ngayon na may nararanasan tayong crisis. Pray lang tayo na matatapos din ito at makakagala ng maayos, masaya at worry-free and don’t forget to go to church
Relate ako dito momsh. Feeling ko kasi everyday stress ako eh.. medyo mahirap mag alaga ng 2 bata ng sabay, isang 2 years old at 6 months old.. wala pa naman ako katulong sa pag aalaga sa kanila..pag iiyak sila ng sabay ,sobra na frustrations ko.. feeling ko i am not good enough, na di ko sla deserve.. tapos hirap pa makisama.. dito kami nakatira sa biyenan ko eh. Hindi ako makakilos para gumawa ng gawaing bahay kasi super clingy ng baby ko, ayaw lumapit o magpabuhat man lang sakanila.. naiisip ko na naman na , sasabihin nila ang tamad ko ,na wala na ko ibang ginagawa dito sa bahay.. ang hirap mag isip momsh eh.. si hubby kasi umuuwi dito every saturday lang kasi malayo work nya.. kaya kaming mag iina ang iwan dito sa bahay nila.minsan iniiyak ko na lang lahat lahat pag gabi.. kasi sabi ko ang hirap eh..
Thank you for this topis mommy..this is what truly i feel right now and i can super relate i know in myself na sobrang positive din akong tao but this pandemic really brings out the bad in me …supet iritado ako lagi and aminado ako lagi ako nabubugnot lalo na minsna sa mga anak ko sa pagiging pasaway 😔 that’s when i realized na hindi na tama yung nafefeel ko..hindi ako lumalabas ng bahay since nag start ang ECQ until now as in kwarto,kusina at sala ,banyo lang.I make myself busy jojning giveaways which i do enjoy but sometimes kina ka stress ko din.Kaya naghanap ako ng mga gawain na pwede kong ika relax that’s brings me to watching Kdramas which i really love.I make sure everyday na ill give time for myself to enjoy watching my Favorite kdramas to relax and chill and also thank you for the tips mommy.I’ll make sure to do this .
I want to be with people who are positive yung tipong namomotivate kamapit kahit ang daming pagsubok.
I believe that it’s okay to unplug sometimes.Especially nowadays when negativity keeps on spreading.So huwag na tayong magdagdag ng toxic sa mundo.If you feel anxious then,tama ka po na huwag nang magbasa o manood ng news.To be honest,madalang na po talaga akong nanonood ng news since iisa lang naman ang content araw-araw.Hindi na rin ako nag-iscroll ng feeds if not sa mga blogs po ninyong mga Mommy Bloggers..Kasi maistress lang din talaga ako..
Kaya tama ka po,Mommy Peach sa blog mo na ito..Lakas maka-uplift ng soul.Thank you!
Minsan nga momsh nakakapagod na ang mga happenings sa mundo! I let my kids draw sa photoshop para makapag-relax ako sa online world tapos before ako matulog ginugupit ko yung sachets para gawing unan! Ready help my mind, himbing tulog ko!
nung nagstart pa lang ang ECQ last march ganyan din ako laging stress, kasi lagi ako nanonood ng news until 1 day tinigilan ko din muna manood ng news unti unti naging okay na din ako..
