As I was sitting outside the ICU, I was feeling a lot of dread.
My father had been recently admitted to the hospital & my brother and I were taking turns at staying at the hospital. There was nothing much to do there and I was sitting waiting in the lounge if in any case the doctor, nurse or my dad needed me. My dad in the meanwhile was in the ICU under observation after the surgery (not too worrisome) attached to a few drips & tubes. I was not used to this at all. Since I didn't have much to do, except sit there, my monkey mind was running wild. I was getting all sorts of dreadful thoughts. But then I remembered from my learning earlier that if I was getting negative thoughts, I could visualize differently from what the current situation was and it would definitely ease out and manifest. I did have positive results earlier by doing that, when I wanted some positive things to happen And I felt that I could have a positive result even for this situation. So I did as I had learnt and I tried to remember all sorts of positive things that had occurred earlier in my life. I pictured the images of the positive outcomes in my head and remembered the positive feelings I had when some great things had worked out for me earlier. Because of remembering/recollecting those days , after sometime, I started to feel good. Then I started to imagine what I wanted for my father - a healthy, happy dad , enjoying his life, walking on his own and doing things easily. Just by doing that, my whole energy changed. I relaxed & felt at ease. I started to feel enthusiastic. From then on I felt confident he would feel better soon. The Result: The short stay at the hospital went by smoothly. My father also got discharged very soon. Not only that, the whole procedure of the paperwork & the other things at the hospital, cooperating nurses etc. went off very smoothly too. |
