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. I know there’s a lot in the air right now, especially with the election coming up. Maybe it even feels like if things go “wrong,” it could change everything we hold dear. Sound familiar? You’re definitely not alone if you’re feeling that way.
It’s totally normal, by the way, to feel that flutter of anxiety about what might happen if “the other side” wins. The stakes feel huge, almost life-or-death. And it makes sense because there’s so much riding on how we want our lives and our future to look. But maybe there’s a different way to approach it, something that feels a little less… well, exhausting.
Let’s look at what Abraham might have to say about all of this. Abraham, if you don’t know, has this gentle but powerful way of reminding us that the power we’re looking for is actually inside us. Yep, right there in the middle of this political storm. I know it sounds a bit out there, but let’s chat about it, friend to friend.
Staying Aligned When Everything Feels Intense
Here’s the thing Abraham always says about our focus: energy flows where our attention goes. So, if we’re putting all our focus on what could go wrong or on this “looming disaster” of a future, then we’re just feeding that vibe. Like watering a plant we don’t even like.
But what if we could focus on something else? Something that feels… well, better. Maybe instead of focusing on “what if this all goes wrong,” we could start leaning into what we actually want to feel. Peace. Resilience. A little steadiness in this whirlwind.
Imagine, for a minute, if you started each day focusing on your values instead of the news ticker. What if you held steady in your compassion, your kindness, your peace? This isn’t about ignoring what’s going on – it’s about choosing where to let your energy flow, especially when things feel intense.
Easing the Pressure with EFT
Sometimes, though, focusing on peace sounds a lot easier than it feels, especially when the world seems loud and uncertain. That’s where a little EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) can really come in handy.
You’ve probably heard of it, right? EFT, or “tapping,” is a bit like giving yourself a gentle reset. Brad Yates, one of my favorites, even has a video dedicated to calming election stress (yep, this election specifically). His session is all about softening those heavy feelings around uncertainty, and it’s done in the kindest, most calming way.
He guides you through paying attention to the tension or worries you’re holding – maybe in your chest or stomach – and gently releasing it with tapping. It’s simple but powerful. Imagine giving yourself a few minutes to ease that pressure, letting some of the weight lift off your shoulders.
Brad talks about how tapping can help you clear out that feeling of “if this goes wrong, it’s all over” and replace it with something steadier. You might find yourself moving from “I’m afraid of what could happen” to “I can handle whatever comes.” It’s like a little way of nudging yourself back toward that inner peace Abraham talks about, even when everything outside feels chaotic.
If you’re curious, go ahead and try his video, “Reduce Election Stress and Cultivate More Peace (Inside and Out).” Think of it as a small gift to yourself right now.
If you’re short on time for the full video (though carving out the time could be a gift to yourself), Brad just put out a quick one today that’s all about easing that election stress.
Trusting That You’re Resilient – No Matter What Happens
I know there’s a lot of talk right now about how, if the “wrong side” wins, there’ll be no going back. It’s a scary thought, and that fear can feel huge. But here’s what Abraham reminds us: peace and resilience aren’t things someone else can take from us. They’re inside, right where they belong.
Think of it this way. Life has a funny way of going on, even when things seem uncertain. We’ve all been through times that felt impossible, and guess what? We’re still here. Stronger even. We adapted, found new ways to keep going, and probably even found some silver linings along the way.
So, if things go in a direction you’re not excited about, remember – you’re more resilient than you think. And life, wild as it gets, has this incredible ability to keep moving forward, opening up new paths we might not see just yet.
Your Calmness Can Actually Be a Gift to the World
Now, here’s a cool thought: your calm energy actually has a ripple effect. You know how some people can walk into a room and instantly make everyone feel lighter? That can be you. By finding a bit of peace in yourself, you’re like this little oasis for people around you, a reminder that there’s calm even when things feel out of control.
Imagine you’re sitting with a friend who’s worried sick about the election, and instead of spiraling with them, you hold steady. You might be surprised how much just being calm can lift someone else up. It’s like a breath of fresh air when things are heavy. And that ripple, that calmness you’re radiating, it can spread in beautiful ways.
It’s Okay to See the Bigger Picture
And here’s something Abraham really leans into: that big-picture vibe. It’s that sense that there’s something larger at work here, a feeling that maybe, just maybe, everything will work out in ways we don’t totally see yet. And I get it – this isn’t always easy when things feel so close, so personal. But that’s the magic of the big picture.
If you trust that life is fundamentally about growth and expansion, maybe this election isn’t an endpoint at all. Maybe it’s just another stop on the journey. And honestly, even if it doesn’t go the way we’d like, there’s still plenty of good to be found, new perspectives to gain, new things to learn about ourselves and what we truly value.
And that’s Abraham’s nudge here: trust that well-being is the foundation of life. We’re not on a sinking ship. We’re just in a chapter of the story, and no matter what happens, there’s a way forward.
A Little Reminder to Be Gentle with Yourself
So, friend, here’s the last thought I want to leave you with. Take it easy on yourself right now. When the stakes feel sky-high, and you’re feeling stretched thin, remember that it’s okay to pull back and center yourself. Life is a long, beautiful journey, and even if this moment feels huge, it’s still just one part of your story.
And remember, whatever happens tomorrow, you’re still you – strong, steady, and resilient. You’ve got this beautiful power to stay connected to what matters most, even if everything around you feels a bit chaotic. Hold steady, take a deep breath, and trust that peace is something you carry with you, no matter what.

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.
