Living with the Energy of Negativity While Denying It: A Path to Awareness and Transformation

www.lifeinsynergy.com helps to smooth out the speed bumps of life

We all encounter moments where life’s challenges feel heavier than they should, where negativity seems to loom over every step we take.

Whether it’s from personal circumstances, the pressures of society, or even our own self-critical thoughts, negativity can subtly creep into our lives and take root, sometimes without us even realizing it. But what happens when we live with this energy of negativity and deny its presence? What does it mean to unknowingly give negativity power, while claiming we are unaffected?

The Silent Companion: Unseen, Unacknowledged Negativity

Negativity, when not addressed, can become like an unwanted guest that lingers in your space. You tell yourself you're fine, that it's just a phase, that the problem is external, but internally, this energy chips away at your sense of peace. Often, we deny the presence of negativity because it’s uncomfortable to face. We’ve been taught to “stay positive,” to focus on the good. But in this culture of forced optimism, we forget that acknowledging negative emotions and energy is part of the healing process.

At Life in Synergy, we believe that true awareness begins with recognition and responsibility. Denying negativity doesn't make it go away. In fact, denial is often a way of feeding the very energy you’re trying to escape from. Without acknowledgment, it can manifest in various forms — stress, anxiety, tension in relationships, or even physical discomfort.

The Illusion of Control

When we refuse to acknowledge negativity, we often feel that we are in control. We convince ourselves that we are above those emotions, that positivity is the only answer. But this is where the illusion lies. By denying negative energy, we are not controlling it; we are allowing it to control us from the shadows. This avoidance may show up as resistance to self-reflection or even a defensiveness when others suggest we might need to address something within ourselves. It may appear as constant busyness, as if productivity can keep negativity at bay. But that feeling of unease, the tightness in your chest, or the sleepless nights? That’s negativity tapping on your shoulder, asking for attention.

The Power of Acceptance

The key to transforming negative energy lies in acceptance. Acceptance doesn’t mean surrendering to it or wallowing in it. Rather, it means recognizing it as a part of your experience. When you acknowledge negativity, you create space for it to be transformed into something that serves you. This process is not about blame or judgment — it’s about observation and understanding.

Helena Collins, the multi award winning creator of the Apex Life in Synergy program, often speaks about the power of self-awareness in overcoming life's challenges. She encourages us to explore the root causes of our emotions.

Are they karmic patterns?

Are they inherited from family dynamics?

Or are they societal expectations that you’ve unconsciously absorbed?

Through the tools offered in her program, you can begin to recognize how deeply ingrained negative energy may be, and more importantly, how you can shift it.

Transforming Negativity into Fuel for Growth

Once you acknowledge negativity, you can begin to work with it. Instead of denying it or pushing it away, try asking: "What is this energy here to teach me?" This simple question can shift your perspective from resistance to curiosity. When we view negativity as a teacher rather than an enemy, we open ourselves up to learning and transformation.

The Apex Life in Synergy program’s approach to this transformation is multi-faceted, addressing both the energetic and physical aspects of negative emotions. It combines ancient wisdom with modern practices, helping you to clear your energy fields and release the hold that unacknowledged negativity can have. Through SFM, breath work, meditation, and deep reflective subconscious tools, you can realign with your true self — a self that thrives beyond the limitations of negative energy.

Moving Forward with Awareness

Living with negativity while denying it creates a dissonance within. It's like driving a car with the parking brake on — you're moving, but not freely. The first step toward freedom is recognizing the energy you're carrying. Once you're aware of it, you can begin to unravel it, transform it, and eventually, release it. It’s not about never experiencing negativity — that’s impossible. Life will always present challenges, but how you respond to them determines your path. By embracing both the light and the shadow, you move closer to a state of harmony within yourself.

At Life in Synergy, we guide you through this journey of self-awareness and transformation. With the tools and insights from Helena Collins’ Apex Life in Synergy program, you’ll find that even the heaviest of negative energies can become a source of profound growth. All it takes is the courage to stop denying and start acknowledging — and from there, your life can shift in ways you never imagined.

Who let the air out of the tires?

Did you ever have a moment when you felt that the world was your oyster?

Life itself was a supernova and the world was exactly on track?

You could see your role and it’s infinite possibilities on how you could contribute to the bigger picture of life itself and by doing so, you yourself would also ascend to new levels of consciousness? You may have had a specific song play in your head as a soundtrack and a special pep in your step as each step forward was indeed a step forward into a new world of your creation?

Then the fan that cosmically spun, suddenly had massive shit thrown directly at it and clogged its mechanisms. Suddenly you felt devastated, weakened and off track. Your very being was wiped and the pep in the step was replaced with the doom in your gloom. How can this be? How can a cosmic battery be drained so quickly?

Energy hounds and old patterns are Ninjas that’s why.

Both can knock a person off center at any time if a person loses sight of the unfortunate truth of our dimension: if there is good, there is evil.

A good person who is blind to this reality is subject to the double whammy of self attack and of the negative will of others. A self attack consists of subconscious thoughts and actions often sabotaging a persons forward progress. Why would a person do that to themselves you might think? They wouldn’t, the subconscious mind is simply a hard drive that stores information throughout a persons present ( and past) life and when challenged with new energy patterns, thoughts, deeds and actions may rebel against what it considers its “only”cemented reality.

This challenge may lead to self destructive actions, arguments, disillusionment as the subconscious tries its best to hold a firm grasp on “What is” and unknowingly a person will fall prey to the subtle aspects of old ways surfacing and causing slow downs in ones progress. I personally went through periods of this as I studied deeply in Chi Gong and Hawaiian spiritual aspects throughout the years. I was challenged daily by my older mindset of being “just” an inner city kid who couldn’t possibly ever be like the Masters I idolized, after all, they had the secrets and me? I was just a guy from the projects in the lower end of South Boston.

All old bullshit in my subconscious.

As my training continued over the decades and I began to wake to the acknowledge that I was the person people came to see from all over the world to create change for them at my office on Newbury street in Boston’s Back Bay and I was rewriting my life story daily by fully dedicating myself to the new energies I was creating. I will pat myself on the back and say I also never forgot that there is a ton of negative bullshit out there and stayed true to my inner city side (keeping a spiritual head on a swivel) so I guess in many ways I accepted that the yin yang as just not an Asian symbol, but an absolute fact on the ever shifting levels of invisible influential duplicity and prepared myself for any and all “Ninjas” that may pop up.

If there is light, there is indeed dark and a seeker has to be prepared and learn how to feel the subtle changes of these intertwining flows moment by moment. As you unlock new levels of self , you can and will identify the “What was energy” and “What is” and be more aware to old energies trying to regain frequency control and influence your thoughts and actions. This is the key to not allowing subconscious influence to creep in as you ascend into new heights.

Energy hounds?

Now they are on a whole different predatory level.

They are ones that when you say things like “What a wonderful sunny day” they will say to you “ No, Not really, “blank” is currently in war and people are dying or tell you a story about how a relative of theirs can’t be out in the sun and cries in a window when the sun comes out. You know the type, we have all met someone like this be it at work, social life or encounter with a stranger on the street. These people will say white is black, up is down, day is night and so on, all to just cause a rift in your peace so they can feed on your positive field reaction and use it for themselves. They in turn will make you feel as if you are one that has all the facts wrong and then add onto the energy draining by gaslighting you into thinking that you may be wrong for being so positive in an often negative world.

We all know the feeling after being near a person like this: tired, confused, and completely off center.

These people are very easy to diffuse, you simply do not engage and if you have engaged…walk away. There is no being rude to a person who is trying to drain energy off you, it is simply aura self defense. You owe nothing to an energy hound, if you work with one, if you are friends with one, if you just met one…..when you feel the shift in your vibration begin and feel a “pull” into this persons world…walk away. Preservation is better than being reduced to their level. Who cares if they say “You are rude” as they are simply sending out feelers to pull you back in to them by seeking another reaction from you by doing so, see the endless tendrils?

You owe it to yourself to read this blog and then study what thoughts YOU then have….are they telling you “This is bullshit” perhaps?

Mine thought was just that many decades ago when I met the Kahuna I would study with for the very 1st time, he quickly altered that thought of mine and well, off I went into the land of renew and haven’t stopped yet. He has since passed away and in many ways I feel as if I have picked up the staff and gone off into the desert of the world continuing my “job” of being the man behind the curtain of change. I remember when he came to Boston 2 decades ago after I did something VERY large for the city and pulled me aside and told me that All ( including him) in his organization should be studying with me, he was so proud of what I had become and said that saying that fact to people in his organization would cause many wonderful “opportunities” to grow and advance. I asked him why would people reject that fact if they were indeed so ascended? He said in his great old Hawaiian accent ( sort of like a Hawaiian Jerry Seinfeld) “ Ohhhh, no matter who people think they are, they always have ego tapping them on their shoulders to remind them they are not”.

So I ask you at YOUR crossroads, see that blue button below?

That is now your chance to ascend, a chance to begin to study new ways or let old outdated energies run your life ( and thus all life on Earth based on Quantum Entanglement). By simply clicking off and taking some morsels of knowledge to regurgitate that you read on this blog and not telling your clients, friends or co workers about www.lifeinsynergy.com, you continue the rule of old energies on the planet and add onto the “take take take” imbalances on Earth or you can purchase one of our programs and help shift the planet.

Building Power Skills with Helena Collins' Apex Life in Synergy Program

Helena Collins brings you to the Apex.

In today's rapidly changing world, the importance of "power skills" can't be overstated.

They encompass everything from emotional intelligence and communication to adaptability and leadership. But how does one cultivate these crucial abilities? Enter Helena Collins and her transformative Apex Life in Synergy program, which is designed not just to teach these skills, but to help individuals embody them fully.

What Are “Power Skills”?

Before diving into how the Apex Life in Synergy program builds power skills, let's take a closer look at what they are:

• Emotional Intelligence: Understanding and managing your emotions, as well as recognizing and influencing the emotions of others.

• Communication: Articulating thoughts clearly and effectively, listening actively, and reading between the lines of what’s said—and unsaid.

• Adaptability: Thriving in change, adjusting approaches when faced with new challenges or circumstances.

• Leadership: Inspiring and guiding others toward a shared goal, regardless of your role or position.

• Creativity: Innovating and thinking outside the box, bringing fresh ideas to the table.

• Resilience: Bouncing back from setbacks with a positive outlook and a strong sense of purpose.

These skills aren't just desirable; they are essential. Whether you're navigating the intricacies of a corporate career, managing personal relationships, or simply striving to become the best version of yourself, power skills are the tools that will get you there.

For example, emotional intelligence is cultivated through guided meditations and reflective exercises, while leadership is fostered in activities that challenge participants to take initiative and inspire others.

2. Experiential Learning

One of the standout features of the Apex Life in Synergy program is its emphasis on experiential learning. Instead of just talking about adaptability or communication, participants are placed in situations that require them to actively use these skills. This could be through role-playing scenarios, real-time problem-solving challenges, or even in the way daily interactions within the program are structured. The focus is on learning by doing, which leads to deeper, more ingrained skill development.

Overwhelmed Butterfly

In the chaos of the world today, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.

When headlines blare with turmoil and change, and everything seems to be spinning out of control, it's natural to feel a sense of powerlessness. Sometimes, that inner voice that wants to make a difference gets drowned out by the sheer weight of it all. It's an old story—one where we let ourselves believe that a single person's actions aren't enough to change the script. But this belief, while understandable, is what keeps old energies, the same harmful cycles, in charge of our lives and the world around us.

It can feel like we're standing in a storm, isolated and unsure. We think, "What can one person possibly do in all of this?" The truth is, we've all been conditioned to believe that change has to be monumental and fast, that it must be something we can see with our own eyes immediately. But science, and even spirituality, shows us that this simply isn't true. The small actions we take, the whispers of change, matter far more than we often acknowledge.

Let us introduce you to the Butterfly Effect.

The Butterfly Effect is a concept from chaos theory that tells us how small actions can have massive, unpredictable consequences. A butterfly flapping its wings in one part of the world can set in motion a chain of events that ultimately affects weather patterns thousands of miles away. While this may sound abstract, it has a grounding truth: seemingly insignificant moments create ripples that extend far beyond what we can perceive. And this is not just poetic—it's scientifically demonstrated. In our interconnected universe, every choice, every action, no matter how small, resonates.

We see the Butterfly Effect at play in human behavior, too. When one person smiles at a stranger, that stranger may be uplifted enough to make a positive choice in their day, which can lead to someone else benefiting, and on and on. Our actions, whether rooted in fear or hope, contribute to the energy of our shared reality. One person deciding to extend kindness, deciding to be aware, can alter the course of their community, even if that change isn't immediately visible.

Yet, it's easy to become paralyzed when we look at the bigger picture. We see everything that needs fixing, and it becomes too much. It's here that we must remember that the only true power we have—and it's a profound one—is in our ability to start small. Every time you choose love over fear, every time you choose awareness over ignorance, you contribute to shifting the collective energy. You stop the same old story from repeating itself. You step away from allowing the cycles of pain and control to keep playing out, and you invite new possibilities.

Feeling overwhelmed and alone doesn't negate your power; it reveals how much the world truly needs your unique energy. Your actions, your shift in thinking, even just being present and aware, matters. Life isn't about waiting for the massive opportunity to change everything at once—it's about recognizing that the opportunity to create change exists in every breath, every word, every choice. The power of one person, multiplied over time and through influence, can shift reality itself.

The Life in Synergy approach reminds us that we're never really alone in our efforts. Just as a butterfly's wings create unseen currents, our intentions and actions are part of a larger, connected whole. When we lift our own energy—when we choose to believe in our potential to create change—we lift others, too. We free ourselves from the old energies and invite a new story to unfold. You don't have to save the world alone. You just need to begin, in whatever way you can. Your ripple, combined with countless others, will shape the future.

If you're feeling stuck or unsure where to start, Helena Collins' Apex Life in Synergy program offers guidance to help you break free of these old patterns. It's about learning to believe in the difference you can make—understanding that your personal growth is part of the change the world needs.

The Vastness of Human Potential vs. The Infection of Old Energies

As we walk through the modern world, it’s almost impossible not to marvel at how much things have changed.

Fashion has evolved from Victorian corsets to athleisure and sustainable wear. Technology has taken us from hand-cranked telephones to devices that fit in our palms, connecting us instantly across continents. The climate, once stable and predictable, is now a chaotic force reminding us daily of the impacts of human activity. In so many ways, humanity has made progress, and yet, when you look beneath the surface, ancient, outdated energies continue to linger like a silent infection.

We speak of human potential in lofty terms. There’s an unspoken acknowledgment that each of us is capable of extraordinary things. At our core, we are beings of light, creativity, and love, capable of profound transformation both personally and collectively. The potential is vast, unlimited even. But old energies, some of which have persisted for millennia, are slowing down the growth of humanity, keeping us tethered to cycles of suffering and imbalance.

Fashion & Technology Have Evolved, So Why Haven’t We?

Think about it: how has fashion changed over the last century? Once symbols of status and class, clothing now reflects individuality, freedom, and even resistance. We’ve transitioned from rigid gendered clothing norms to embracing fluidity in expression. Yet, despite this evolution, look at how power dynamics—like sexism and gender inequality—continue to thrive. The clothing may have changed, but the underlying issues of control, hierarchy, and worthiness linger.

Similarly, technology has brought us to the brink of miracles. We’ve created machines that think faster than we do, artificial intelligence that learns, and spacecraft that reach beyond our solar system. And yet, with all this advancement, the emotional wounds of our ancestors—racism, greed, desire for control—remain disturbingly familiar. Isn’t it curious that while technology marches forward at an exponential rate, our hearts, our emotional intelligence, often seem stuck?

We’ve been raised in a world where old energies like fear and separation continue to dictate our choices. Racism, sexism, and greed aren’t merely relics of past generations—they are living forces, woven into the very fabric of our societies. They thrive in the shadows, infecting new generations despite our technological sophistication.

The Inertia of Old Energies: Why Does This Happen?

What is it about these old energies that make them so sticky, so hard to shake? Part of the issue lies in their subtlety. While fashion and technology are external and visible, emotional and karmic imbalances are invisible forces that persist beneath the surface. These energies thrive in patterns, passed down through generations—sometimes consciously, but often unconsciously.

Many of us were taught to believe that survival comes from power, that control ensures safety, and that the "other" is to be feared. These beliefs are deeply ingrained, and they don’t disappear just because we invent smartphones or revolutionize fashion. They take root in our families, communities, and institutions, quietly shaping the world around us.

Old energies are comfortable. They feel safe because they are familiar. Breaking out of them requires us to confront uncomfortable truths about ourselves and the world. It means we have to look in the mirror and see where we, too, have perpetuated division, judgment, and fear. It means stepping into new ways of being, where the heart, not the ego, leads the way.

So What Do We Do?

There is hope, of course. If human potential is truly infinite, then we have the capacity to transcend these old energies. The question is, how?

First, it begins with awareness.

Becoming aware of the old patterns we carry—whether personal or societal—gives us the power to change them. You can’t fix what you don’t acknowledge. We need to recognize how these forces show up in our lives, not just in large systemic ways, but in the subtle, everyday interactions we have. Where does control creep in? Where does fear of the unknown arise?

Second, we need tools to dissolve these energies.

That’s where programs like Apex Life in Synergy come into play. Helena Collins’ program is designed to not only raise awareness of these ancient forces but also provide a roadmap for moving beyond them. It’s not enough to just talk about how the world needs to change; we need practical steps to untangle the old threads and weave something new.

Lastly, we need courage. Growth is uncomfortable. It requires us to step into the unknown and let go of the security that old energies offer, even if they no longer serve us. But the reward is profound—personal and collective evolution, where humanity finally begins to tap into its vast potential.

Human Potential: The Next Frontier

The external world will continue to evolve—fashion, technology, climate. But true change happens within. Imagine if, alongside our technological advancements, we began to heal the old wounds of racism, sexism, and greed. Imagine a world where the pursuit of power and control gave way to collaboration and compassion. We are on the cusp of something extraordinary, but we cannot carry the infection of old energies with us into the future. The time to shed them is now, and the tools to do so are already in our hands. If we can harness the potential within, humanity’s next great leap won’t be a technological one, but a spiritual one.
