Good to hear from you. Pratipakshana Bhavana is a yogic technique of moving away from negative thoughts by entertaining the opposite thought. The word itself means “move to the opposite house”. This is a technique advised to free yourself of negative feelings like anger, greed, pride, jealousy etc. Say you feel jealous of someone. Instead of hating that person for their credits, you consciously start to admire them. You acknowledge in your mind that they deserve to be respected and you do everything in your power to make that feeling real. You behave friendly to them and every time your mind becomes cloudy, you put the sunshine back with a positive reaction. This is a very powerful mind management technique which helps you to overcome all your vices. Hari Om.
