Staying Steady During Election Season: Abraham’s Insights on Finding Peace
A Note to Our Readers Around the Globe:
While this article focuses on the U.S. election, the insights here are meant for anyone navigating times of high-stakes events or intense political seasons. The goal is to find a bit of calm and steadiness, no matter where you are or what’s going on around you. We’re glad to have you here!
Hey friend,
If everything feels kind of loud and tense right now, you’re not alone. This season, especially around elections, can feel like a pressure cooker. Like the future is hanging on every headline, and the weight of it is pressing down on your chest.
It’s normal to feel anxious when the stakes feel sky-high. But maybe we don’t have to carry the whole world on our shoulders. Maybe we can find a softer way through it.
This is where Abraham’s reminders come in – those gentle nudges that peace and steadiness aren’t found “out there,” but in here. Inside you. Even right in the middle of all the noise.
When Everything Feels Intense
Abraham often says: energy flows where your attention goes. So if all your focus is on what could go wrong, guess what’s growing roots in your body? More fear. More tension. It’s like watering a plant you don’t even want to keep.
But what if, even just for a few breaths, you turned your attention to how you want to feel instead? Steady. Clear. Kind. Curious. Hopeful.
That doesn’t mean ignoring reality. It means choosing where your energy lands. It means focusing on your values instead of the ticker tape.
It means remembering that you still get to choose what you carry and what you lay down.
Easing the Pressure with EFT
Sometimes it’s hard to shift your focus with your brain alone. That’s where EFT can help.
Brad Yates has a beautiful tapping session specifically for election stress. It’s soft, honest, and grounding. No need to have the answers. No need to fake optimism. Just a few minutes of breathing, tapping, and letting some of that tension unwind.
It’s okay if you feel overwhelmed. It’s okay if your thoughts are racing. Let the tapping meet you where you are.
If you want to try it, here’s the video:
Short on time? He also shared a shorter tapping video you can do quickly – just a few minutes to help your nervous system soften. Even a small reset can shift the whole tone of your day.
Resilience Isn’t Out There – It’s In You
It’s easy to think everything will fall apart if things don’t go the “right” way. But Abraham reminds us – peace isn’t something that can be voted in or taken away. It’s already yours.
You’ve lived through hard things before. You’re still here. Still standing. Maybe even stronger in ways you didn’t expect.
Whatever happens, you are resilient. You will adapt. You’ll feel what you need to feel, and then you’ll keep going – wiser, clearer, more connected to what really matters.
Your Calm Is Contagious
Being steady in the chaos doesn’t mean you don’t care. It means you’re tuned into something deeper – your values, your energy, your peace.
And here’s the cool part: that calm you’re holding? It ripples. It reaches people. It softens rooms.
So when you stay centered, you’re not just helping yourself. You’re helping everyone you come into contact with. You’re modeling something powerful: peace is possible, even here.
Seeing the Bigger Picture (Even When It’s Hard)
Abraham often invites us to zoom out. To remember that what looks like chaos might be the beginning of something better, even if we can’t see it yet.
It’s not always easy. But if you can soften into trust, even a little, it can change how everything feels. You don’t have to be perfectly optimistic. Just open to the idea that well-being is the foundation of life.
Maybe this moment is a turning point. Not an ending. Maybe the tension is birthing something clearer, kinder, and more true.
A Little Reminder for Right Now
You don’t have to be brave all the time. You don’t have to pretend you’re fine.
You can take a breath. You can let the news wait. You can drink your tea, cry if you need to, tap a little, and come back to yourself.
Whatever happens, you’re still you. Steady. Soft. Resilient. Whole.
Hold your peace close. Let it lead you forward.
You’ve got this.
And as Abraham says:
There is great love here for you.
In True LOA Fashion…
This beautiful bit of Abraham wisdom hit my inbox around the last election, and honestly? It still feels just as true now.
We’re going to speak briefly about what’s in your Vortex, collectively as a nation and as a global consciousness. What new beneficial, focused desires are now attracting the attention of Source that weren’t there before? We’re speaking with one voice, a collective consciousness voice, and we’ll use “I” to bring it closer to your personal perspective.
“I want to be happy. I want to feel good, lighthearted, and uplifted. I want to know that all is well. I want to thrive in my environment, and I want those around me to thrive too.” We realize that leaning too hard in the direction of your Inner Being might be challenging to resonate with. So, let’s focus on more specific “I wants” from your human perspective, as your Vortex pulses with new strength.
“I want a safe world. I want a world where our children and their children feel playful and eager about life. I want more people to feel better because when people feel better, they are kinder. I want more stability and less fear. I want humanity to be softer, gentler. I want things to improve for more people. I want to thrive personally and want those around me to thrive too.”
“I want a robust economy, where everyone who wishes can participate in its success. I want to make more money and experience more freedom and fun. I want to feel stable and sense ease in my community, with harmony in my home, my town. I want to feel happy, safe, and sure of my path. I want to move through life with others who feel as I do.”
“I want to consciously appreciate how the Law of Attraction matches us up. I want to appreciate everyone, regardless of their stance, understanding their value to this collective. I want to resonate with the true balance of this time and space, returning to the understanding I held before arriving here.”
“I want thriving, not just for myself but for everyone. I want people to embrace who they really are. I want the happy-hearted voices to rise, becoming what I hear most. I want to be such a vibrational match to happiness that the Law of Attraction mostly yields that to me. I want to feel good no matter what, and to know things are always working out for everyone.”
“I want happiness for all, regardless of who they voted for or their beliefs. I want everyone to feel empowered. I want everyone to understand there is a greater Source, a Vortex filled with more magnificence and power than anything before, born from our conflicts and challenges.”
“I trust my ability to align with who I am. I seek the resources of nonphysical energy and recognize my power to connect with or withdraw from this current. I choose to give others the benefit of the doubt, without allowing anyone to pull me from this alignment.”
“I believe in the well-being of this reality. I know there is no regression, only forward movement. Whatever we just experienced, it added to the Vortex, making us all better for it. I am grateful for everyone who contributed, regardless of their role, understanding that more is in the Vortex now to serve future generations.”
“This political moment added more to the Vortex than many past moments. Now, we have a greater opportunity to live peacefully on this planet than ever before. We asked with stronger, more personal fervor, creating a Vortex that pulses with our desires in ways it never has. With what I know about Source energy, I see a flow of well-being stronger than ever.”
The current drumbeats of hatred and division will fade, as the human mind cannot long hold against the natural current of well-being. The pain you felt most was rooted in a flawed premise, a belief that there are more mean, hateful people than ever. But the truth is, there are more people desiring to feel good and aligned than ever before.
There is more capacity and opportunity. The energy flows faster, and the pull towards who you are is stronger than the pull against it. This is a turning point. As more of you embrace this and appreciate all that brought it about, you will begin to experience the rewards, blessings, and abundance that’s been in your Vortex all along.
This is a breakthrough experience for all of you.
